Looking for a white hard case - Nexus 5 Accessories

I currently have the Spigen Slim Armor and I really like the armor material, I was wondering if there was a case (white) with similar feel/material like the ones in Spigen Slim, been looking can't find any white hard cases around

Well there is the nilkin frosted armor it comes in several colors, white included. I used the white one with my old Xperia T and rhe feel in the hand is awesome, light and sturdy. The only problem it's that it will get yellow over time.
I also have the spigen ultra fit in white, IDK Do you know if these cases get yellow as well?

the case is almost what im looking for but, I swear nobody makes a full hard case that covers everything...all of these cases seem to forget about the bottom piece
I want something like this that isnt a TPU (I had this same model on my s2 and it turned yelllow/green pretty quickly) http://www.amazon.com/Cimo-S-Line-F...614711&sr=8-6&keywords=nexus+5+white+case...I just want a hard case that covers everything

This is my case. I love it

case for the white gs2

I still didn't decided about the case, not even the screen protector, and I find it more difficult because most of you have the black phone and I can't tell how the case would look like on a white one. Should I go only for white? Was going for a ultra protective case but on second thought a solution would be a normal case not so thin like barely there and not so thick, medium for indoor use and for going out the flip style because it protects the screen better. But then again, you have more combinations available because black goes well with any other colour. Please gs2 white users post some pics and recommendations.

I bought this case for my GS2. It fits very nice, but the downside is that id adds a bit of thickness everywhere.. but i like it that way because the phone is much more comfortable to handle. Also I've ordered this screen protector from ebay. A friend of mine uses it on his iPhone 4 and it looks very nice (the protector, not the phone )
Thanks, that case looks OK, is a noname from hk? Gel or tpu? It offers some protection, link please. The screen protector is really cheap, so you didn't received it yet?

The case is from gel, but it's some kind of a hard gel and it offers a very good protection and gives you a good grip when holding the phone. It is a noname. I bought from a local store here in Bulgaria, so I'm sure that you'll be able to find similar in your country. The screen protectors haven't arrived yet because the shipping time to Bulgaria from anywhere is between 15-25 business days, and I ordered it a week ago.

can you give me the link for this case?
the case is good looking~
I have a black sgs2, BUT I can tell you one thing:
I really reccomend you buy a TPU case as it's very good (at least the one that I got) and protects the phone great.
I've bought this Case Mate 3 months ago. It was very nice, totally clear. It protects the chrome edge all around. You could put the phone screen face down on a flat surface. The screen would not been harmed in any way.
But after a few weeks the case was getting discolored. It's blue on the corners because of my jeans pocket. And the whole case is a little yellowish.

I'm using a black rubber case from Momax on a white GS2. I think the contrast adds a nice touch. The fit is slightly tight because I am using the official 2000 mah Samsung battery, but it looks very natural. Will post pics when I get home tonight!
what case did you end up with?

Slim Case That Covers The Entire Bezel?

I'm currently using an Elago Breathe case and I absolutely love the way it feels and how thin it is but it doesn't cover the entire bezel of the phones, leaving tthe top and bottom bezel unprotected. So does anyone know a good slim case that covers the whole bezel?

If clear is your thing, this case is really nice.
http://www.expansys-usa.com/samsung-bumper-case-for-galaxy-s-iii-white-232667/
It's so slim. Can't imagine it's much protection. It has a nice feel to it as well and it's got a good fit. No real front lip, so doesn't protect your phone if you put it face down.
If you have the pebble blue phone, they make one with a blueish tint too.

I have that exact case on my pebble blue and can confirm the no face down protection. I think it looks smart in my opinion better than the only other option which is a lightish blue .Someone else has it on this forum as well and has posted pictures so if you're interested have a search and I'm sure it will show up.

Go with an SGP Modello or Capdase case.
I have the SGP Modello. It's a nice case. Not as thin as a Case Mate Barely There (as an example), but still quite thin and covers everything. Good fit. Not much grip, which I like, but not everyone does.

+1 SGP Modello. Love it.
Currently not being productive on my S3.
Rocketfish Snap-On is is a bit thicker than what you have now, but not very bulky at all, and covers the bezel. The gray goes well with the pebble blue.

Just remembered I have bad experiences with SGP cases. They have a tendency of fading out/losing/changing colors. I instead decided to go with this generic one

If its not to my liking I'll just keep my Elago.

I have the one in blue. Its an OK case. I actually put it on and took it right off. Its a bit too slippery for me.
Tpu cases work very well. Has good overall protection. Doesn't protect your screen from shattering but it will protect it when you put your phone face down.

Post your white cases...

I currently have the Diztronic matte clear case on my white GSIII. As it is starting to yellow a bit I have began the hunt for a nice fitting white case. I really like the fit of the Diztronic case because it does not add much bulk, it covers all the edges of the screen (unlike the barely there cases) and it has the cutouts for the volume rocker and power buttons.
Ideally, if I can find a case exactly like this in white I'd be happy but it seems that cases these days are usually a mix of colors and you can't just find a good quality all white TPU case that fit the criteria above.
So I'm turning to you guys to post pics of the white case you have as well as your impressions of it and a link to where the case can be purchased.
Thanks for the help.
I don't have one to show you but I'm getting the PureGear Dualtek Extreme Shock case in white.

This...
...is my actual case. It is soft TPU inside and grabbed by a black hard case. Fits perfect on my GS3 marble white!

Great Case for the Galaxy s3. The case fits perfectly to the phone and is snug. It's very protective of the phone. The best thing is that I can now lay my phone face down and the glass doesn't touch.

diztronic High Gloss Clear vs Matte Back

Did anyone try both of these and can tell if the high floss clear case worth buying ?
Does the gloss clear protects at all as the Matte back?
By the way, does the back matte white turns yellow?
FYI some guy on androidcentrals forums posted pics of it
link
woah thx for the info =)
posted there a question as well, and yet i want to hear what people in here have to say
From my experience, clear TPU cases tend to turn yellow fairly quickly even in very clean environments.
With that said, I'm using the Diztronic matte black case and absolutely love it.

well i have searched and read about these clear cases including diztronic clear case and saw
some people say their case became yellow.
I guess ill go on the black one although its kinda disappointing.
My new white nexus is on his way buy he will never show its true color nor its "Nexus" brand in a black case.
What about a smoke grey case? will it be available soon?
and if not... what other GOOD choices do i have?

This yellowish colour is not about dust or dirty environments, but about UV, which degrades the material.
But it is often doped to avoid this (that's why old computers used to turn yellowish but not the new ones).
i guess im not gonna buy the gloss one, but are there any alternatives so the white color will be seen? or ill just buy the black matte?
Hi
this yellowish problem is a matter of worry for sure...in that case you can go up with Matte Back...but as far my experience I use white snap on case with kickstand for my N5 and it works very fine..the grip on the phone is very fine and there is no issue of even getting that yellowish thing also...I got it from Fommy a re seller website...you can also check out their may be you find it a better one you are looking for...its a snap on with kickstand for Nexus 5
Thanks !!!
does it make the phone much fatter? >:

Spigen ultra slim case problem

Hey guys
It has been about a week I've received my spigen ultra slim case for my nexus 5. I got the smooth white version.
I've been noticing that the back of the case is already full of scratches. Has anyone of you also notice this? It's weird to me because I thought spigen uses durable materials. Fortunately enough the scratches aren't visible thanks to the white case color. You can only notice it when bright light shines on it but it still bothers me.
Now I wonder whether the scratches on a black spigen ultra slim case would be visible or not?
Thx!

It's normal. It's bound to happen to ANY case. The longevity of the case varies with mileage/user/surfaces you're placing it on
I've had a champagne one for a month, if it's scratched up. I hope they died the plastic right thru, so they stay the right color. Cheaper cases seems to black under the color, and show the scratches far worse.
I have the champagne one as well with a few minor scratches but it still looks good none the less.
