Honestly no but if you look all over the Internet it has very mixed reviews. Of course so does the slim armor but that was before the power button issue got fixed

But is Slim armor a good protective case? I liked ringke one because it was very protective. How about Cruzerlite case? Is it compatible?

Slim armor is more protective than cruzerlite. Just check out the YouTube reviews. Is really good

Tempered glass friendly cases

Since i bought my nexus 5 I already equipped my phone with momax pro glass screen protector (0.3mm thickness) but I am worried if it will prevent me from buying fitted cases like spigen slim armor. any advice?

i installed today the MIME screen glass protector.... the .15m one... and i got also the spigen slim armor...no issues with fitment. it cleared the case just fine
Sorry I wasn't clear. Slim armor fits fine doesn't mess with it at all and the ultra hybrid would push it up causing bubbles to form around the edges and the thickness of the screen protector was .27mm

Currently using cheap ebay protector 0.3mm(?) with diztronic tpu case no problems.
My N5 has a Spigen GLAStR Slim on it and the official Nexus Bumper Case fits fine. The Diztronic TPU case interfered with the screen protector, making the edges lift up at the corners.

my tempered glass protector sits perfectly fitted in my Ultra Hybrid case. Check the alignment of your glass protector, is it perfectly centered?
Just bought the slim armor too, will try it over the next few days.

Working fine - the glas is a smidge smaller than the screen, the case doesn't contact it.

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 am acctually thinking about case and I am nearly sure that it will be spingen because I heart a lot of good opinions about them.

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-FUSIONĀ®-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.

You will not regret it! Gives great protection and looks cool too. Which color?
Do yourself a favour a buy the tempered glass screen protector... It feels just like the real screen! Not like those plastic protectors.
Here is a link:
But you can search for a better offer.

not sure yet about the color, mayble simple black aka scout.My s3 is blue
PS: thanks for the awesome advice, i hate plastic protectors anyway
I can recommend Mulbess Atom S3 Black TPU if you want something more robust/protecting than most soft silicon covers.
It is quite hard (slightly flexibel), does not protect the screen/glass.

there are cases called urban armour gear, there military grade shock protection, there really solid and perfect protection.
i have a white and a black one totally worth the money.
only problem is when you first get them the buttons can be abit stiff.... but i wouldnt worry about that because a few weeks of use will loosen the buttons. i would post a link but i need 10 posts. simply go on amazon and type "urban armour s3"

I really like the Ditztronic TPU case. It looks good and is quite slim but offers decent drop protection. I combined mine with a tempered glass screen protector I bought off eBay.
