**pics included** Black Cruzer Case on Amazon fits GSM perfect

I got the black glossy Cruzer case from Amazon and it fits snug and tight...better than my Incipio case I purchased from the Verizon store. The case is nice and durable. The power button and 3 prongs are open and the volume keys are closed with a nice rough texture. The volume keys are very easy to use since they are sealed. I recommend this case to GSM Galaxy Nexus owners and the price is not bad at all.
I gave it a 5 star review on Amazon.
Here is a link...
Check out the other designs Cruzer has... Android print case looks pretty cool too.

Thank you, will order some tonight.

How is the fit and finish, for lack of a better term, of the case? How tightly does it fit around the face and how are the areas around the mold seam?
I'm currently using this Qubits case and while it is quite good, it is not perfect.

The fit and finish is great. It is not loose around the face or around the seams. Im telling you, this fits nice and tight all around the phone.
Sorry guys.... I'll get pics later today...give me about 2 hours.

I have this case and while it fits perfectly it takes away from the look of the phone. Also makes it bulky and just not the same. I have a smoked one if someone wants it. Will sell it for $5.

Sale at Amazon on these
FYI - if you want more than one, you can get three for the price of two at Amazon - use promo code BUY2GONE. Several different colors, two different patterns.

I got black. I didn't care too much about the color though. I only use the case when I am in route from one location to another. When I'm at home or at the office I take the case off.

[Review] CaseMate Barely There Black

I got this case about two months ago, And have been testing it out ever since. I must say, I have been a fan of the design ever since the Galaxy S. But this time around, I was really disappointed. :crying:
The Quality of the GS3 version is really bad ( I can't stress on that point enough). I have already had it replaced once, And the company took around 20 days to do so. I got the replacement because the case had started peeling. They sent me a replacement case, and after some time, That started peeling too. I have attached some pictures. Steer clear of this case. Thats all I can say right now. Try SGP. They have awesome products.
Pros:
-Not at all Bulky
-A bit of Lay on the table design
-Good for showing off design of the phone
Cons:
-Really bad quality
-No drop protection
-A tad bit expensive.

Cheers for the heads-up and review

May I suggest the SGP ultra thin air or the white barely there? That doesn't have the problem.
Sent from my GT-I9300

I was considering the barely there but thought it was too pricey...
I found this case made by Rearth...looks similar and keeps a thin profile...
Best of all it's only $9.99 right now....

I am also fan of case mate barely there cases, but the quality nowadays got downhill. From this point and time I will never invest on case mate cases. Will just look for other brands slim cases.

Incipio Dual Pro?

I'm really surprised that I haven't seen anyone mention anything about this fantastic case!!
I've had one, maybe two, of these cases previously for other phones. It was a few years back, and don't really remember how I liked them. But, they have been selling them for years now, and for most major phones, so I figure they were doing well. I had been through page after page looking for a case that caught my eye. I never could really find anything that suited me, and was about to settle on the official Google (non-flip) case. Somehow, I came upon the Incipio website and found the dual pro. Went ahead and took the plunge on the blue/dark grey version.. I COULD'NT BE HAPPIER!!
Seriously, this has to be one of the best three cases out for this phone; and, in my opinion, it is the best one out. I also have the .13mm Mime glass screen protector; it fits like a charm and has no peeling issues. The "lip" of the inner silicone part of the case actually goes over the edges of the screen protector. Almost as to "protect" it from chipping/peeling.
Does anyone else have this case? If so, what do you think about it? I might can find a camera to put some pictures up if anyone is interested.

Interested! Put some pictures up.

This. Also the silicon got very lose after a while and dust and debris would get trapped between the case and phone easily.

I have this case in black. Its a nice case but the silicon part of the case is loose. When you take the phone out of your pocket, the silicon pulls away from the phone. The buttons are nice on it tho and the case isn't too bulky.

This case is sick. Best case I've seen for the M7. I've been caseless because the phone just looks better without one but I just ordered the black Trinity. Thanks for the linky my brotha.

Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

I have one in red! It looks really nice and I love the look of the metal. The only issue I have is the silicone part isn't the most snug fit and sometimes an edge of the phone might come out of the case when I took it out of my pocket. I don't think the whole phone would come out or anything..I'm just picky.

Thank you for the pictures. Would you recommend it?
Sent from my One using xda app-developers app

If you're looking for protection, I probably wouldn't recommend it. There really isn't much of a lip over the screen and the top corners seem to slip off a little too easily. It's not like the whole case would accidentally fall off though since the metal part helps to keep it somewhat rigid.
If you're looking for style, then go for it. It's definitely a unique case.

Heads up, if you actually buy it from Mindplar.com it's $45 with shipping and comes with an assumingly cheap battery bank. A little bit cheaper.

This case does indeed look night, I never spend this much on a case but I might have to, maybe I will wait for a few other reviews.

These are pretty sharp looking. I have only been using a sleeve, but might have to consider this. I think Eddie Van Halen would approve of the red one.

Nice case !

I seen 1 million cover for htc one but i never seen this one before ! thanks , probably i'll purchase this , seems really good

Just got mine in the mail. Came with a free 1000 mAh power bank.
Didn't realize that the IR port was covered, no big deal though. I can use a nail to put a hole in there.
Kind of disappointed that the "metal" part is glued on, and it doesn't wrap around the lip like other hybrid cases.
The case itself is very slim. If you have a glass screen protector it wouldn't wrap around it. Looks really great in hand though.

So looking at the pictures previously posted, is the rubber very...rubbery? lol like the ports seem very loosely cut (charging port) and the edges seem like very rounded. I am used to the UAG case and think the cuts and lines are so sharp that this case (while looking pretty rad) has some variances in quality
am i right?

speck cases!!!!! they are here !!!

just got bored surfing the web and thought i would see if speck made nexus 5 cases yet. and i guess i lucked out !!!!
http://www.speckproducts.com/google...ses-and-covers/candyshell-for-lg-nexus-5.html
downfall is they are 35 bucks. i was hoping for $25. well if anyone gets one post up what you think of it. i want to know if these have any issues with the power button not having any click feel to it and or easy to press by accident

expensive !!
they are over priced ..
thats my opinion .

Finally! Now speck and tech21 have released cases and imo, they are the best brands out there!

Speck always over charges for their cases. They cater to the rich stupid iPhone people. And I agree the case colors they choose suck. I wanted a plain black one.

I do like the white and blue one but not for 35 bucks

Those color options are terrible.

Yea thats what i was thinkin. Got the blue and white cause thats the best looking one

This case is great for side and corner impacts, but the small lip hinders its face flat resistance.
My friend has this case on his sgs3, and I saw his phone drop onto our tile office floor and crack the screen, while in the case!
The floor did have a slightly raised edge, due to it being tile, but nothing a good case shouldn't have protected against.

^ sorry if my post seemed discouraging. I can only speak for the experiences I've seen with this case in an s3, which is 2 years old.
If the lip is a decent height, things should be fine if it falls facewards. Back and sides should be fine because of the thick plastic/rubber the case is made from. Let us k know how it fists!
