I ordered from Amazon this gel case and I received it today.
It looks and feels really nice, smooth and easy to pull out of your pocket, not like some silicon cases. Great fit, except the power button, I had to cut a little part but it is usable in it`s unmodified way.
More pics on my blog, my internet is acting up now, maybe I`ll upload them here later on.
Sorry to thread-jack, but I have a similar protective case for my wildfire and I find the open spaces a magnet for dust and such. How can i block dust from entering these places? I thought of cutting some small foam into the shape of the connector, and just pull it out when I need to charge.
Yeah, that foam stuff is a good ideea. I don`t think there is any other way to protect from dust, the only problem is that the foam plugs may fall off during the day so you must keep extras.
LoL! XD
Got the same case
Realy like it... gives the phone great grip, protects it... love it
Welcome to the club. Where did you get it from?
bought it in my country (Israel FTW) at some phone accessories shop
Wow. I'm using the exact same too. It's better than most silicon case.

Any chance you guys knows where to find this that shipped to Asia or sold in Asia?
Amazon doesn`t deliver there? Or is the shipping cost too high?
It`s not the exact one I have, but check this out, free shipping and they look pretty legit: http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=31331

Good for you! But what are you doing with 5 cases? (besides selling them)
Nobody likes Neoprene pouch cases? I personally find them to be awesome shock absorbers and scratch protectors, while also acting as grip enhancers. The only downside is that you have to take out the phone to use it.

Shoving them into my arse would make you happy, I know but I don't. I'm putting on to my phone for protection from scratch and fell damage as it's made for. Learn these things.

I want to feed 7 cats, yeah.
LOL this case is really popular. I got mine from play.com blue makes the phone more stylish and the HTC logo stand out especially under lighting and sun.
And the thickness is just enough to keep the camera lense from scratches too when you lay the phone down.
There's nothing stopping you to pop out the phone to clean out the dust once I'm a while its so easy to pop it out and insert back in.

Jus got the Amzer silicon case for wildfire from ebay....its awesome ...gave the personality to the phone...love it..
Does anyone have any recommendations for a case. I've has 2 Krusell cases, I like them, but they keep cracking. I also had the official one which I didn't really like - felt cheap.
Has anyone any recommendations? I'm thinking of the NGP Semi-Rigid Soft Shell Case. I want to still maintain the thin feel of the phone.

case-mate barerly there?
If I was you, I would go for the 's line' case from Ebay.
Why? It's cheap, very good build quality, protects the screen also and the most important for feature, grip at both sides.

Mine is starting to crack, fell out my hoodie pocket today about 1ft drop and the case has a crack on it. Also has another crack from when I dropped it at a house party but its barely noticeable.
case mate though, very, very good, i love it, and makes my mind rest, if my phone falls to the ground i will survive

I was looking at the case mates but they seem to be made of the same material as the Krusell, which cracked twice on me, also the fact that the camera cutout isn't entirely flush would be a bugbear for me.
Went into CPW at lunch to have a look, but they only had 2 cases! Hard to buy these things blind online.

Its very nice. Personally I go for a strong primary in a mesh case (not the micro mesh)( and sorry no picture as my phone cannot easily take a picture of itself).
Personally I think the S2 is incomplete without a case; its so light and thin it almost floats out of your hand without one.
The S3 needs one because it's so slippery. I enjoyed the film they made about how the design ethos was based on nature but they could have chosen something other than a fish or an eel for the body as it so easily slithers away.
good thread
4g lte network
all the company launch slim phones which are light in weight ..so these are very easy to handle but these all are slippery so ..it think case is necessary for these phones ....without case these are incomplete....

I also can't use the phone without a case. It's just too light and slim. I think what some did to their phone was good, small size but solid structure and somewhat heavy. Makes the phone feel much more high quality.

Anyone found any without any patterns/frosting/colours which were quite minimalistic like the following:

I got one and I hate it. The fit is not perfect and there is some give and squeak on the left side. There is a cutout beside the camera for no reason whatsoever. There is a cutout on the bottom back for the Xperia logo that is pointless.
The edges are sharp and easily gather dust and skin cells.
I'm waiting for a poetic atmosphere to be released for the Z1 since I loved it on my HTC One.
100% clear case? Even glass (which comes close) has its imperfections, however, I doubt you will find a case that is glass, no such thing you will find!
Neither Perspex, poly-carbonate nor Poly Urethane will give you 100% clarity, your request is unreasonable.
Its 100% clear....are you sure..my friend....????
As this is the first time I am getting to know about such thing which is 100 % clear...well one of my friend use this jelly case for his iPhone...just look at it once and do u feel It is too somewhere around 100 % clear...or how much percent you can give it on behalf of clarity...???
this is what im using. its pretty nice and i can still feel the phone quite a bit.
if you are getting a quality phone whats the point of covering it will thick covers and all you feel is cover.

After using IMAK for a month I got really sick of it. The case has so any scratches you can barely see the phone through. I received Love Mei aluminum bumper yesterday my review is up on YouTube. I really like it so far... even though it does make the phone feel like a square block. I don't think there is a perfect case out there yet. I had Krusell Colorcover before for Xperia Z and the paint comes of and the plastic breaks after a month of normal use. So if I was to choose right now I think the aluminum bumper is the way to go. Then buy a screen protector sticker for the front and back and that should keep you lr phone safe.

Krusell is nice and thin but it wears out very quickly (at least in the case of Colorcover). Do bare in mind that Krusell offers lifetime warranty so once your case breaks you can just send them a proof of purchase and pictures of the broken case and they will send you a replacement. They have sent me 2 brand new cases when my colorcover broke. I put them up for sale though
Ended up getting Terrapin clear soft plastic case £2:99 from Amazon like it. Power button a bit harder to press not too much bulk and nice grip. Goes nice with Glass m screen protector

TERRAPIN : Sony Xperia Z1 TPU Gel Skin Case / Cover
Comes with a ringing recommendation. How's that volume button and access to the magnetic charging ?
Volume seems fine. Hole there for magnet charger access but would need to be a bit longer? Not sure. Would need a good quality one not a cheap one? I cut my cheap one but still not very good.

Here's a relatively new one that popped up on my radar. It's a TPU case with nice buttons and very good reviews, not only from a materials perspective but also with respect to button feedback. I think the honeycomb look adds a bit of subdued flair. Apparently the case is in fact black, but from the photo it looks ever so slightly green. Could be just the lighting. Looks very nice if you ask me!

Looks awesome. I tried buying it, but they won't ship to the US.

GOSH that looks sexy I especially love the way the case curves from the back to the sides so seamlessly! And it is translucent? if so, it would be even sexier!!! Some real life pics and review would be appreciated! hope they make more of these and make them available internationally, and more colors.
Also the dark green color does look nice I know its black, but still!!!
Love the look of this case so I emailed them just to see they'd be willing to ship to the states...
Dear Jason,
thank you very much for your inquiry and your kindly interest in our products.
Unfortunately we actually only sell our products within the EU and other european
countries. For logistical reasons concerning the customs clearance, we don't offer
shipping to the US. Thanks for your kindly understanding.
We are already thinking about selling our products on Amazon.com, too so that
US clients would be able to receive our cases within a few business days.
So maybe you will find our cases in your country in the near future.
Wish you a nice day.
Best regards.

So maybe in the future, but not right now.
I ordered this case just because of your OP I have the ringke fusion, ultra slim and a nilkin shell And this case is BY FAR the best case I've ever had on a smartphone. Its REALLY slim, the fusion is actually bulkier and it offers a lot more protection than the fusion. It looks absolutely gorgeous and it feels even better. You have no fingerprints whatsoever and the bee thingy on the back feels really good. Its a bit harder than generic tpu cases, the whole case feels like the rubbered edges of the fusion only a lot better. So 10/10 I can gladly recommend this case to anyone. The buttons are also covered and feel great. If anyone wants pictures I can provide

tire, yes my thoughts exactly. I found a few tread cases for the GN and NS on ebay. Casemate only makes for the GS4 now. Any idea if they'll be available for the N5? I don't even want casemate's cases, even a generic case with a tread pattern will do.

You say the buttons are great. How do they compare to the other cases? Do they give feedback, or a click of some sort? Some case button covers are too stiff, while others put so much pressure on the buttons that it becomes too easy to accidentally turn the phone on while in your pocket.
I guess i would pretty much compare it to the fusion if you have one.. If you don't have one for reference, it does get a teensy bit harder to press the button compared to naked(obviously), but its not really clicky.
Edit: the buttons are not hard to press and feel very natural, but as I said not as easy as without a case

It's the best case I've ever used
Not a single complaint. Nice feeling, grip, look, fit, material, ..
Just received mine. Looks and feels great but I found one major flaw already. The micro usb cutout is very small, just to fit oem N5 cable and it fits tightly. Any other cable (unless it has longer than usual metal part of micro usb plug) will be unusable since the case is made from hard tpu that won't stretch to fit any larger plugs.
I got this last week and it is hands down the best tpu case I have ever seen. I would not have thought that diztronic could be trumped, but it does. Faboulous build quality and feel. It is a bit thicker than most tpu cases and the cutout for usb port is small (oem cable fits exactly), those are the only "downsides".
How can I get this case? I live in Chicago.
