Where can i get a Bumper? - Nexus 5 Accessories

Anyone know? I hate the bumpers that are cases with a clear back, I want a real bumper that only goes around the edge of my phone, I dont want anything covering the back, like the iPhone ones that go around the rim only, i had one for my note but can't find one for the Nexus, if anyone knows where I can get one it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Amazon. Ordered one the other day hasn't shipped yet but it's a true bumper.

Just got my poetic bumper see here for pics http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48012361

I just got a inspire 4g and I still don't have a case for it. Any recommendations or anyone have one they don't use anymore? Just let me know!

I don't own an inspire (yet), but when I do this is the case I will be getting. I love speck cases.

I own the Platinum Series case from Best Buy. It is awesome.
Otterbox
I had 3 of the Candy shell cases for my iPhone, but after about 2 months each the cracked. WHile I had them they were great, but not that rugged.
I just got the Otterbox Commuter for mine and that thing is great, even the buttons are covered, and they are easier to press. Plus I can lay it down without worrying about the camera lens or the screen, it sticks out barely on both sides to protect.
One Of My Friends has a black one, you can barely tell its a case. Ill ask and try to hook you up.

The price of that case is the same price I got my bran-new Inspire 4G for.
I don't know if any of you are still looking for a case for the Inspire 4G (or DesireHD), but I have 10 hard shell black cases with a built-in kickstand. The cases are brand new and they also come with a screen protector.
If you're interested in getting one, please contact me at nkd4cl at g mail. I'd be willing to sell them for $15 + $3 shipping.
I just got a bunch more in, so I could drop the price. Hope this price point helps people out.
Depends on your budget and whatnot. OtterBox makes your phone indestructible for the most part (it's very resilient). If you just want a general case, I'd recommend just getting one off of eBay. That's what I did.
Case Mate Tough Case!!!! (ebay TPU not bad either)
to be honest, the TPU cases are pretty nice. not as much protection as other combo cases, but they sell at the mall for $20 and i got one on ebay for 69 cents after shipping. i had to wait a while as it came from china, but i was pretty impressed with the quality. it even keeps the camera from touching the table when i lay it down.
that said, i ultimately decided on the case mate tough case. it has a rubber inner layer and hard plastic outer layer, a nice ridge around the screen to keep it off the table, full port access, it actually makes the buttons easier to use, its fairly easy to get off and on if you need to but it CERTAINLY isnt going to come flying off if you drop it (i would know, from experience...lol)
my girlfriend has the speck candyshell for her iphone, and its nice, but its kind of hard to get the phone in and out. besides, i think the glossy finish will get scratched up quickly whereas the casemate will wear much better with its textured back.
OH and the casemate tough retails for $30 but i got it on ebay new for $15 definitely worth it! i got the tpu as a less bulky backup should i ever want a "sleeker" case or something happen to the tough one.
i looked at a lot of others, but they didnt seem to offer THAT much more protection when they cost 3x as much. this seemed like the best $ to protection for me since i did pay $50 for my inspire lol
My favorite cases hands down are Seidio cases. Fantastic quality, inexpensive, and they are very clean looking. I've used Seidio on my last 2 phones and will continue to use them on future phones that I own. I swear by them.

You can attach a charm to any phone and most phone cases with an inexpensive little "O" ring device. You might be able to find one at a store that sells phone accessories or you can buy them online.
it looks good

Seeking a case for nexus (for wife)

I'm really looking for recommendations here as I'm having a hard time finding something good. I just got my wife a galaxy nexus (sprint) and looking for a good case, probably the rubbery kind, but purple or pink or similiar.
Anyone give any links, recommendations or other? Thanks in advance!
ebay, My girlfriend has the verizon gnex and she got one of the cheap cases off ebay, it's translucent purple and pretty thin. I have an otterbox commuter on order for mine. They also make tpu cases and bumpers which can be had for pretty cheap on ebay. I always assume if I buy a case it's going to take some abuse, so I go cheap so I don't spend an arm and a leg to replace it. I went out on a limb with this otterbox case and spent a little more money than I am used to so, we'll see if it pays off. I got the otterbox for work (I work in a dusty environment and I wanted a tight case with some shock protection. I have a TPU bumper for the rest of the time. I've had 4-5 $2 cases in the past two years with my G2 and I don't regret it. You get some duds and you get some that can last 6 months to a year. I order 3 or 4 at a time since they are so cheap.
Thanks. I also just found this, but can't find any reviews on it. Looked really slick with a kickstand too!

Shameless plug. very nice cases though!
I have a hardly used SGP ULtra Hybrid, its purple trim with yellow back. I purchased for about $25, will sell for $14 shipped.

Meh why is it so hard choosing a case..

Is it just me or do you guys also spend AGES looking at case after case?
Basically i dropped my phone S3 on Sunday and cracked the screen, today i got it repaired so i now want a case/cover that protects over the edge front of the phone. But i don't to add massive bulk or for it to look too ugly.
Im thinking of getting the Otterbox commuter or the Ballistic lifestyle smooth, which one you guys think would better suit? or is there an alternate case better?
I know its been asked loads so apologies in advance.
Your not the only one. I'm a flashoholic and a caseoholic lol and very very picky with both.
My favorite sk far is the Incipio NGP. I love it. The lip should be plenty to protect from most drops and it adds very little bulk and gives the phone a really high quality feel. The right balance between slippery for pockets and grip for when your holding it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
My vote goes to the Incipio NGP as well. It is less thick than the GS2 version, but this reduced thickness (0.7mm) makes the phone quite a bit thinner compared to the S2 situation. Feels slick and slides easily out of pockets. Overall one of the best simple TPU cases around, although it is not exactly cheap for just a TPU case.
Naked is best

can't get Incipio NGP over here have to get it sent from the US, i'm going to the US in 2 weeks for 6 weeks so might as well wait till i'm out there as it might take longer than 2 weeks to come.
Do phone shops stock all sorts of cases out there or do you have to order online? would be nice to try before you buy, none of the shops here have anything decent...
These are the only type i've seen in shops here http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/metal-slim-protective-case-for-samsung-galaxy-s3-black-rubber-p35594.htm and that's what ive currently got which did nothing for when mine dropped.

I think most order online. Or at least I do. You'll find a decent selection at most stores but they all have different ones so if you could make it to like an att sprint and Verizon store you should see quite a lot. Online always has a better selection though
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
not due my upgrade yet, still on s2 but been searching for ages for a case to suit my needs when my s3 comes.
the best I think for me so far is the Acase Superlegerra Pro. looks like exactly what I need.
Hard to choose, right? The Paradox of Choice.
I actually bought too many cases (again) because I couldn't decide. Got various TPU cases from ebay, and Cruzerlite, and the popular hard polycarb Rock case, but finally settled on a so-called hybrid case: the Incipio Silicrylic dualpro, as it provides the best protection, grip, and looks, without adding too much bulk.
(Looking forward to Incipio's future cases for the Nexus 7 too)
I was also in search for a case for more than two weeks. At last I settled for Acase Superlegerra Pro. Lot got good reviews and value for money.
Also providing the same level of protection of a Otterbox commuter.
I have looked at reviews and posts (thanks the_Biz) to finally purchase the Case Mate Tough which is presently being delivered by Amazon. My next step is to select a protective screen which I have not decided but it may be the Ultra Crystal for its 4H hardness and compatibility with all cases. Now I am searching for a couple holsters the horizontal and vertical possibly the Reiko and Active holster respectively but I need to review further for quality and compatibility. When all the above is completed I will order the phone and should not worry about cracking the screen like you had experienced
I got the trident ageis and it works pretty well. I always keep my phone in a case but what did I do I took it out to put on a new screen protector and it slipped out of my hand and landed face down. Luckily there was no damage and I put it right back in!

Living in the UK, the main issue I am finding is that you guys in the US get the best cases!!
Yeah I hear ya, but for the moment I'm going with the otterbox commuter case since I have had good experiences with them
Later on next month I'm a customized case mate
I have 5 cases already. The Neo Hybrid in Infinity White, the silver SGP Ultra Thin, the Glacier Otterbox Commuter, a white/ red silicon/hard case from eBay, and a clear case that I got with the phone. And I'm always on the hunt for a good looking case lol

case
Verizon threw in a free case when I upgraded to the S3 which is brilliant because it covers their logo
Slim I'd say reearth slim takes it over case mate barely there. I have both.
I think the seidio active is awesome although for all the case conversations on xda I never see people talk about it for this phone. Definitely better than the spigen lumi for hybrid cases. Again I have both.
And u can get a kickstand on the active if that's how u roll. I did..
Those are the four have bought so far. Problem? Prob..

I have a Fosmon PC+TPU case and an Otterbox defender. I use my phone all day every day for work and switch my batteries out so I use the Fosmon for everyday work use. It comes off easily and protects the phone from everyday use and is cheap as hell. The clear back is flexible and the grips on the side even more so and hold well so far. You can see through the back if you have white you can see the Samsung S3 logo. The Otterbox is when I finally get the hell out of my house, and it does the job but is a pain in the ass to change batteries compared to the Fosmon. There are plenty of reviews of the Defender so you dont need to hear my 2 cents. I opted to spend more on a beefy case with cheap one for every day, it suites what I need very well and if the Fosmon ats $5.88 lasts 6 months I'll be happy.

Has anyone bought cases by Rock?

Hey guys!
I came across a few TPU cases by Rock.. Flip and back-only. Anyone heard of or used them? Couldn't find any reviews for the case.. I'm not sure about the TPU quality and transparency of the back (for the flip one). Check them out, heres the link:
Flip: http://www.rockphone.cn/en/Html/Product/507.html#next
Back only: http://www.rockphone.cn/en/Html/Product/517.html#next

I bought this one ( search ROCK big city Brand New Leather Folio Case Cover Pouch For HTC One M7
in ebay) in navy, turned out to be a bit too shiny/shimmery for me. If your interested I can sell it to you from UK, unused with retail packaging.

Good to know! Two questions for you -
1. Is the TPU flexible? If so, is it like completely flexible or just a little?
2. Is the case too shiny? Like candy colours (think: Nokia Lumia)?

1. its rather hard, looks not like TPU, hard plastic would i say, but still flex enoth to fit it
2. the grey one is not that shiny, matt i would say
I ordered the black one, and it just arrived today. Bit of a shame I don't have a phone to put in it, because it looks great. It is glossy, but not overboard. Maybe similar to the gloss on the original PS3? But don't quote me on that, I only owned the slim.
My One should arrive tomorrow. Once it does, I'll post up some pictures so you guys can check it out.
As far as Rock cases go though, I had one for my One X and I really liked it. I would def recommend you guys check them out. Or also Capdase. I just got a white case from them today as well. Both very nice. One is glossy, one is matte.
Thanks! Looking forward to the pics

Do you order straight from their website ? I had their case for my s3 and loved it but then a whole ton of knockoffs started coming out.
So my phone arrived, and I had it in the Rock case within about 5 minutes. I'm in Korea for the day, so I'm trying it out. So far: really like it. The case fits like a glove. Doesn't snap on really tight like some, but there is absolutely no movement. I actually prefer this to the ones that make you think you are going to break your phone putting on/taking it off. The black on black looks so good! It's super thin, so the phone shape is maintained. It also has a very slight lip around the edges on the front so you can put it down on it's face, if you want.
The negatives: the black is a fingerprint magnet. I guess that's why they bundled a cloth in the package. The other is I am afraid I'm gonna drop my phone and it will break. I attribute the fear to having just got the phone, as well as being pretty hungover . If I were to drop the phone, the case wouldn't do much to protect it. It's more like a scratch guard.
Anyway, so far I really like it. I bet the coloured ones on the black would look ridiculous good. I'll add pictures when I get some time.

I have Rock "Quicksand" case with the Xperia S.
Dropped it from around waist level to the hard ground. No scratch.
So.. when I got One, I quickly try to find a Quicksand series but they don't seem to made it yet.

Bumper case

I have this phone and I just recently bought dbrand skin, but would like a bumper case with no back on it. Meaning just the outside edges only. Anyone know of where there could be one?
I'm also looking for one... subscribing. I had one on my HTC 10 that I really liked (RhinoShield CrashGuard) - but they don't seem to make them for LG phones. Looking for something similar to that. Please update if you find one!
Im trying to find one too if not i might order a really flexible cristal clear case and put it on or maybe order one of the "bumper" cases that have a tranparent back and just cut the back
looking for it as well, no result till now
I have this one and love it. Could easily be cut with a sharp razor to be a bumper case with possibly leaving the back wire frame on it. Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/371888746421

I doubt the thin blue frame would be that secure without the case? I could be wrong. If anyone finds one update this thread, they can have my money in a heartbeat.

Please let us know with a few details on what they're like once you've received them, Monkeydrufy.
I've had that type of case on my honor 8 (the last one posted in silver and black).
It was terrible. Not a real bumper, and it's so deep I could hardly get my finger in the hole to unlock it.
Maybe this version will be better, I'm not sure, I haven't used it, but I certainly would not recommend it.
I would love to see a RhinoShield bumper even on G6, sadly they only make them for galaxy and iphone..
