Wanted to start a thread sharing what kind of cases people were getting and include pictures if possible. I was thinking of one of these:

belkin slim
I got the belkin slim that BB had after I got my 32 grey from Fry's since BB only had 16's and that was late friday. The case is nice and very thin but still padded.

It is released, you can order it right now from that link.
I have the belkin one and i do not recommend it to anyone. Im really not much of a fan of the blue texturing on it and for some reason you cant have the case closed and charge the tab simultaneously. I plan on returning it and getting the sammy one instead.

I got it. I don't like it. I returned it. Too thick.
I'm not ordering a case until the "Which case should I get?" hits the 100th thread discussing the same damn thing, haha. I think we have enough case threads people. hehe

Only the Samsung case doesn't have cheap elastic bands in the corners or a "pouch" to slide the tablet in...and I hate the leather (or whatever) frame around the screen. I much prefer the way the tab snaps into the Samsung case, leaving the face of the tab clean and completely obstructed. That's why I went for the Samsung case.
I got the Belkin verve case (all black one) just something to protect the tab. The Samsung book one looks nice but I'm waiting for a few more reviews?
I'd like to get the Samsung case as well... hopefully you'll be able to find it from third party vendors for significantly less in the near future.

I'm calling shenanigans on this... I checked about 4 hours ago and just now for the hell of it. Yes, the blue 'buy online' button is there, but when you click the button, it is still back ordered and I have not received my email notification that it was ever in stock today...
Has anyone actually purchased it and have a tracking number?
I have ordered the Samsung Leather Pouch (normally $30). I'm going to look it over and if I feel I need a sturdier case occasionally, then I'm going to pickup the the Samsung Book Case. I am also considering trying out a silicone cover.

You can still get free shipping based on the order total ... check the instructions when you checkout. I ordered the Leather Pouch, Desktop Dock and Stylus and got free 3 day shipping.
I actually bought 2. The samsung book case. and this one from ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190542584350&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
IDK why I bought both. Just wanted a second one.
I got the gray slim Belkin case as well. I had a $25 Bestbuy gift card and used that... I'll sell it on craigslist as soon as the Samsung leather case becomes available and gets good reviews...
I think the Belkin isn't that bad actually.
I just ordered mine in black. Can't wait for it to come. I used to use the casemate version on my old blackberry. I loved it. Excited to find that same style again.

Cool! Going to get myself one Found one here: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Black-ID...ccessories&hash=item19d28a1950#ht_5491wt_1140
I have been thinking that It's a good idea to have a card slot in your phone case, but i'm not a big fan of tpu cases. I really wanted to get Samsung flip case, but SGP Folio looks cool with a card slot.. I wish Speck release a candyshell card like the iPhone one.

is there anyway to get 2 day shipping if i order a case from cruzerlite?? i went on there site but i only see standard shipping? i need a case bad.. no sprint stores have them.. best buy dont have them.. radio shack.. no one has any nexus 5 cases at all.. so i want to order one.. will have to find a family memeber to order for me cause i dont have a bank card anymore..
For my last 3 phones I evertime just had a normal TPU case without any "extra armor" and no phone ever took some damage of falling. This is a great video he made! It shows that for normal daily usage an "armor" case is pretty oversized and a normal TPU layer (like I am going to get from Diztronic for my N5 like I have for my GNex) is absolutely enough protection.
My GNex looks like on the first day I got it (almost 2 years) and I used it first with a very cheap TPU case and then with the Diztronic ones (in this time I dropped the phone lot of times)

If you don't mind a goofier pattern, they do have another pattern in stock. I can't post links yet, but search amazon for "Cruzerlite Experience Case nexus 5" and you'll find it.

There may not be phyical damage, but I used to use a simple tpu case like this with my iphone and even though it didnt look damaged, I did overtime damage lots of internal components. I had to replace, both microphones, front facing camera and charger port. Having something with a little more shock absorption is nice in the long run.

WHICH Cruzerlite case?
Cruzerlite makes a lot of models--which one, specifically, was used in the video?
I ordered a cruzelite last Tuesday (11/5) and they still haven't sent me shipping info =/

Looks like two models to me, standard tpu (3x style to choose from), or spi-froce. The case in the video looks like a blue Androidified A2, but any of the standard TPU would feature the same protection IMO.

Where did you order from? We ordered from Amazon at like 9PM EST and it shipped out the next day..
Oh wow, I'm glad I decided to use a case from day 1.
I bought the red cruzerlite circuit case.
Unfortunately, cruzerlite cases tend to peel of my screen protector when applied, so I use spigen ultra hybrid instead.
It's a shame because I really like the color.

ordered from their site, i should've ordered from amazon and it would have been here in two days. I swear it's like carrying a baby around. I don't even take it to work I use my nexus 4 there because I am nervous. I got the teal TPU case.
I bought the G4 with plastic back, thinking that I can eventually replace the back with a leather one for less than the $40 difference. So far, I have been unable to find a leather back cover for less than that. The cheapest OEM LG cover on ebay is $60. Crazy right?
Anyway, I am sure as time goes on, there will be more and cheaper options.
Meanwhile, if anyone knows of one, please post here. Again, I am looking to replace the plastic back cover with leather, not applying a leather protector case on top. With G4 slightly larger than G3, I find it really bulky and ugly to add anything to it. I will most likely just use it naked with a screen protector.
Mobile Fun has brown and black for pre-order for $50. I think over at AC someone posted that LG might officially be releasing leather backs as early as tomorrow.
An LG rep told me that they will be selling leather cases starting Monday.
Sent from my LG-H810 using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks. But I don't think they are worth more than $40, which is what LG wants for them if you buy the one with the leather back. I might be willing to pay $20, but ideally around $10. I know, I am cheap...
Lol...I paid 70 after shipping for my red on on eBay.
Sent from my LG-H810 using XDA Free mobile app
Any more info on the backs straight from LG?
Nothing that I've heard yet. Once It gets it a little later in the day here in Cali I'll text my LG rep see what she says about them.

Just ordered my 2 for 1.
Shipping is free so I'm getting 2 leather backs for $76.02 including tax.
they may get cheaper in the future but I don't care.
I have the deep blue verizon variant and I ordered the red leather and the yellow leather.
I know the yellow could get dirty, but I'll only use that on certain occasions.
According to web site, they'll be shipped on 6/26.

I didn't like the leather cases. Plus I use a case to protect the sides. So relevant. I got the white back. I love it.
So they're doing 2 cases for the price of one, but I only want one case. Anyone (who doesn't mind getting a Verizon model*) want to go in with me? I'll get two cases, and send you one for half of what I pay plus whatever it costs me to ship it to you. (Bonus if you're in the Chicago area and we can do this in person.)
*LG asks for carrier. I'm guessing that just means some kinda branding, but it's barely possible that brand has something to do with how the case fits. I'm on VZW so I'll be specifying that on the cases when ordering.

Heads up - a few OEM black leather cases just popped up on ebay for $34, cheaper than the BOGO deal. Search for item 251989020528.
Personally I think I will still hold out for the $10 price point. But it's nice to see a quick drop in prices on these...

The fabric cases have been discounted on Google's Store.
Most are out of stock with delivery at 3-4 weeks.
Does anyone know anywhere in the UK that has the Cement case in stock?
I'm buying phone as a gift for wife and want cover, but don't want to have to wait weeks.

Not fancy the midnight one? Carphone warehouse also stock the cases, but you'll need to search on Google for Google Pixel 2XL fabric case as if you try and find them on the website you can only find the smaller cases.

I have a new one, in box, that I'm not using. If you wanna cover the shipping, you can have it. They retail for $40USD here, so let's say $32+shipping via PayPal friends and family. Just send me a PM.

Thanks for your offer, but the shipping costs to UK would make it too expensive.
It's currently £28 in UK (approx 37.78 USD) They're also currently 35USD on Google's store in US .
I'm looking for either someone in the UK, or a UK store that still has stock.
I would also like to order the cement one for the non XL Pixel 2 I'm in Portugal, though. If someone find a link not expensive please share

Thanks, I just bought a used one on ebay for 20 euros.
How is it regarding being slippery and getting stains?
I'm also interested about sliperiness (is that even a word? Not my native language).
I find the grip to be perfect. I have the Cement and it picks up the dye from my jeans pretty easily, but I like the look of it after it's done so. I got a black spot on it so I washed it with some soap and hot water and let it air dry. It looked brand new again until I put it back in my pocket.
I'm seriously thinking about returning my fabric case, I feel that the phone its more slippery than without it!

I've bought that one as well, used on ebay, let's hope I don't feel that way also. I'm using the Ringke Fusion Clear TPU Case and it's a very good TPU Case, lots of grip and protection and only costs 12 bucks. But it sure dosent look as premium as the Google fabric ones...
