thanks for the pics, but does the case seem a little bulky compared to those tpu and hard plastic cases?

Actually no it dosent seem bulky at all. And the grey rubber on side of case gives it a way better grip

Thanks for pics, goes well with the white. A bit too much for my tastes, thanks again for the info.

Is it a matte finish on the visor screen protector or is it completely clear and does not degrade the screen clarity? Thanks
Its a matte finish. I had a clear invisishield on but this screen protector comes with a lifetime warranty and you can actually take it off...wash it and put it back on

I have this case also. One thing that I don't like is that when you put the phone down on a table, the white plastic sits on the table, not the gray rubber. I'm guessing the white plastic will eventually get pretty scratched up. You can place the phone on the table and spin the phone like a top.
Not sure if this has been posted before but I finally found this case for under $20!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008MB4SNY/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
Look at the seller and another for grey and white versions!
All under $20 instead of 30-40
posting up a pic for those that are curious about how it looks on a pebble blue phone.
thankyou for posting pics!
Might be my new case thanks for the post.
Although I am very attached to my kraken

Your entitled to it, I already own a otterbox defender but I wanted something a little slimmer for looks. I was debating between this case and the UAG but I found this one better looking, I didn't like the design of the UAG.
Sent from my SCH-I535
I have the same setup as the pictures posted. I love this case and all its great protection, and it really feels great in hand. However the rubber bumpers on each corner do require a sleight of hand maneuvering the phone out of pockets.

Can anyone recommend a screen protector that can be used with this case that covers the entire screen?

This case actually comes with a decent screen protector. Invisible shield equivalent or better imo.

Edit: I bought mine about 2 weeks ago from CellGuru for $21 shipped in 3 business days.
I have been waiting for the White to go back in stock at Amazon. I didnt want to buy from a 3rd party.
I went ahead and ordered the Black today and I will decide if I am going to cancel the White order when I get the Black one tomorrow.
I hate waiting just to find out I don't like something.:cyclops:
I had an Amazon return last week. It took 4 days from the time I gave the UPS guy my return until the money was back in my account. can't beat that if you have Prime.

I need a screen protector that covers the entire front of the phone, so that nothing is exposed. I work machining metal and would easily mess up any uncovered area. I'm still using my Otterbox defender for work, I want to use this case at all times but not until I find a screen protector that covers the entire front of the screen.

Finally bit the bullet and picked up this case. Do you guys think the front lip offers protection comparable to a defender?

The front lip is slightly smaller than the defender, but still offers very good protection.

This. Aside from the average screen protector provided, this case is sexier, thinner, and more ergonomic in my hands than any of the otterboxs. The smooth matte finish is fantastic with great grips on the side to make sure you have a nice grasp of your phone.
I think eventually, since this screen protector does not curve at the edges, nor does it completely cover the screen, I will purchase a higher grade protector for that final bit of comfort. This is a fantastic case that guards the phone at every angle.
My heart still wants a UAG though..

I want to get my dad a nice case and holster for fathers day, I've got a nexus so I don't know the options for his S3. I like the otterbox commuter because the silicone is held tight at the top and bottom by the outer layer. If anyone knows of a horizontal holster that fits this well let me know (like the defender series holster). I would really prefer horizontal over the vertical clip in style, even though I know they all swivel. I don't like the defender because he won't like the soft outer layer or built in hard screen protector. The ballistic SG MAXXX has the horizontal holster and hard outer case, but I don't like how the outer layer doesn't cover the top and bottom. Any suggestions for a commuter holster or different case combo?
I would check out the body glove toughsuit. Its similar to the defender, but the outer layer is more of a you material. You can also pull the built in screen protector out pretty easy. They sell them at Walmart if you want to check one out in person.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
Nah, the hard inner layer and soft outer layer isn't logical in my opinion. He works in construction so it needs good drop protection. I might just go with the commuter and get the Seidio active holster.
I use the otterbox defender and am also in construction and it serves me well.
Sent while sleeping in chair.
The outer layer is not soft. Its riggid and way better than the defender its Not tacky and grippy. Ive had them both before.
The commuter is not a good decision Imo. Most likely gonna slip out of hes hand lol.
Ive had the ballistic sg maxx before which would be my 2nd choice over the toughsuit

I'm thinking I'll just go with the SG MAXX, it's seems to fit the bill the best. I might consider getting the commuter and seidio active holster, I've seen someone else post that combination on here.

I'd be a little worried that the bumper only protects the sides, but won't protect the back of the phone since it's curved.

You can always put a scratch protector on the back. For example a zagg or skinomi full body kit. That is what I plan on doing if I end up getting a bumper.

These bumpers look similar to one I had for my Note 2. The clear plastic and colored portion tend to separate after installing and taking off a couple times. It's held together by some shady glue. But I can't vouch for these exact ones. Just a heads up.
Any news on the poetic ones?

I was rocking the black slim armor from spigen I got when the phone first came out. Great protection, not too bulky, protects the camera, and has a small lip on the screen so you can lay it down on its front with no worries.
I like it so much that when I heard that the bright red was more orange than red. I bought it in a heartbeat.
Only other case I got was the Ringke Fusion, works just as great and has a clear back. but dust kept getting in the back in between the case and the phone for me at least. Didn't like that...

I have a tech 21, a ballistic sg, and a spigen slim armor. They are all great. I tend to use the slim armor more being that it's smaller than the ballistic and looks better than the tech 21. The ballistic is definitely the most protective case made for the n5. But it's quite large. The spigen slim armor is still very protective and looks absolutely beautiful. The build quality is top notch.
for me, no doubt: Spigen Neo Hybrid
I am thinking abou slim armor. Its pretty expensive over here but it looks really great and people say that it is safe for our device
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I have both the Ringke Slim and the Neo Hybrid. The Slim is my choice even though it doesn't cover all of the phone. Its slim and almost makes you forget that you even have a case on the phone.
The Neo Hybrid is a good case and just adds more bulk than I personally wanted. Its not to the level of an Otterbox but still some bulk.

ZeroLemon Rugged Battery Case
I purchased a ZeroLemon 3500MaH Rugged Case. It is by all means not a slim case. it's essentially a big ole brick of bada$$ery.
C shaped connector plugs into your Nexus 5 and into the battery, Hard plastic shell with a built in screen protector snaps around that, then rubberized fits around that, then of course a belt clip lol. I'd say i'm a centimeter off from a full inch thick lol.
I currently don't have a case, but I'm looking for recommendations. Can anyone recommend a case?

If you like slim cases, I really like the Ringke Fusion Crystal View case. http://www.amazon.com/PROTECTION-FUSION®-Absorption-Yourself-Technology/dp/B00H3OUGI2
It's completely clear to let the beauty of the N5 shine through. (especially if you have the red or white N5) It's a little bit softer than the Spigen version, has good grippiness, and probably more "bounce" if you dropped it.
