Hi, i'm searching for a SLIM case, but unlike the Barely There from Case-mate i want it to fully cover the phone.
Is there any around them? my research got no results
i have a ringke slim case on mine right now. fits the oem extended battery, its a pretty nice case and very slim

It does not cover the phone
try the sgp neo hybrid, its the thinnest dual layer case ive seen. i cut out the backing now so i use it as a bumber case.
hey im like you. i love the barely there case but i also had a problem with it offering just partial protection.
i ended up with the sgp ultra hybrid case. and i couldnt be happier. very slim. very well built. the only thing it doesnt cover is the screen. doesnt add much bulk.
i also have the sgp ultra capsule.. its just too shiny looking for me.
Diztronic Matte
I like the Diztronic Matte Back Black Flexible *Revision 3* TPU Case.
$9.89 on Amazon, thin and covers phone
Incipio Silicrylic case ftw.

I buy Diztronics for all my phones.
Just got the alpine white ringke slim case. Best case I have come across. Looks amazing!

I recommend either one of these. The Ultra Hybrid may look thick, but it's actually thinner than the Cruzer Lite one as much to my surprise.

I like the cruzer lite, it adds a thick enough "lip" over the face of the phone that setting it down doesn't allow your screen to contact the surface you set it on. Plus it's only $9.

I also have this case and I really like it. It's matte, though, so it's not exactly grippy, if you're looking for that.
thinnest and uber cheap case
Hi there,
I'm not quite sure how thin you would like your case to be, but I recently discovered a couple of cases on ebay that may fit your description.
LINK: I'm sorry, I am a relatively new user on XDA and I can't post link just yet. However, you can ebay a seller called "smokydiscount" and keywords: 0.2mm Ultra thin case for galaxy nexus prime. Otherwise, just PM me.
MY OPINION: I really like these cases and they're great for scratch protection. As for drops and bumps, these cases are negligible; your phone will probably be just as damaged as compared to without a case.
PROS:
- Incredibly thin. It's as if your phone doesn't have a case on it
- WILL protect the back from any scratches. You can leave your phone on a rough surface without any concerns
- Very cheap
CONS:
- There is no front lip, meaning if you put your phone face down on a rough surface, beware. However, the case does come with a screen protector which is fairly decent (ALMOST to the same standard as Brando screen protectors)
- For some reason it does make the phone more slippery. The plastic doesn't provide any grip
- The case is very fragile when it is not applied on your phone. I had to get a replacement sent out because the case came to my house cracked, most probably due to the postage and handling.
Despite the cons, this is definitely one of my favourite cases. Check them out.
TPU rubber case with stand on amazon only 3 bucks and it covers everything , just need a screen protector

I just just got the Speck Pixel skin HD, and its pretty great. Thinner profile than my otter box commuter, yet it feels much better. It looks pretty good, but I don't know if it was really worth $30

I really like the feel and fit of the Ringke Fusion. Feels study and works well with screen protector since it doesn't bubble or push on the edge. However, I'm not so much a fan of the transparent backside. Plus the headphone jack is too small for non-slim plugs.
Are there any alternatives like the ringke fusion but without a transparent backside?
The Spigen Ultra Hybrid is the most similar to that case. One option is that you get (or can print out) a custom back that you put on the inside of the case. This makes the back not transparent. However by default (without the cut out) it is transparent.
Spigen and Rearth are rivals, they always do the same products, with same design, same price, for the same device
Example:
Ringke Fusion (Rearth) x SGP Ultra Hybrid (Spigen)
Ringke Slim (Rearth) x SGP Ultra Fit (Spigen)
so you can find something similar just searching the rival product on the other brand
In this case, SGP Ultra Hybrid have transparent backside too, so probably you wont like it. I think the best match to replace Ringke Fusion without transparent backside is the official google Bumper Case (U$30) or SGP Slim Armor (which is a bit different, but still good to use)

I might give SGP Slim Armor a try. Looks bulkier than my Ringke fusion. Hope it doesn't push against my nillkin glass screen protector.

Yay, another new case! From Tudia, available for pre-order on Amazon.
I believe this will be the thinnest one we'll get. Don't care for the texture though.
I have used this one for several phones including my Nexus 5. I like it as it seems to be a little more grippy on the sides compared to the diztronic. I did not like the design on the back at first but it does not bother me anymore.
Hello anyone come across a case wi1a kickstand like the spigen cases for Samsung that come with a kickstand you can pull out. I have come across the heavy duty cases with kickstands but them ones are too big?
There is a MoKo case that I have and that looks like a Spigen Slim Armor : http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-ASUS-Zen...qid=1450950199&sr=8-1&keywords=moko+zenfone+2 but it doesn't have a kickstand and the grey/colored part feel a little bit cheap
I was a fan of that Spigen case that everyone raves about, but my nexus 5 is a dinosaur and Spigen doesn't sell them anymore. Checked eBay too
Which cases are you using? I wanna buy one.
I don't use cases anymore, currently have it naked
I do have two, though. Spigen Slim Armor and Spigen Neo Hybrid. I found one here for the Neo: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Spigen-Neo-Hybrid-Case-SERIES-for-Google-Nexus-5-/261317712822
I'm using Spiegen Slimarmor. It helped a lot my phone
I use this one: Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit TPU Case Compatible for Nexus 5 - Bluej
I really love Ringke slim. it fits perfectly.
I have really liked the SPIGEN Ultra Fit case. It is very slim and the plastic is very tough without being brittle. I use the black one and it has a matte finish similar to the matte finish of the Nexus 5 itself.
Ballistic cases for the nexus 5 are still available at a lot of cell carriers in Canada. I use a skin myself, my partner uses a grey and black ballistic I just bought her new last week at my local Koodo kiosk
Best case Fusion
I dropped my phone several times and still works,no cracks!
Also it feels really good.
