INCIPIO EDGE case for xperia x10

Incipio has a slider case that fits well with xperia x10. only down side is there is no hole for the LED notifications, but the case is a hard case that slides together instead of 2 piece where the front and back meets together. this is more secure. just a fyi for anyone interested

Any pictures?

looks good but it would've been better if it had a spool for the Handsfree.

Sent from my X10i using XDA App

just decided to purchase the Incipio EDGE Case on ebay for $10 and I will drill a hole where the LED notification sits at
if anyone could help me out, whats the proper size drillbit i can use to drill a perfect hole in the case for the LED?

I just drilled a hole in may case for the led. Use a 5/64" (1.9844mm). Draw a lines parallel to the edge and the top on the screen so that they intersect at the led. Put the case on and work out where they intersect on the case. Thats where you drill. Easy.

I do not like the feel on my hand with this case :/

please post a review/pics when you get a chance, my cheap case from ebay broke in like 2 months =/

Case has a LED hole
I just got an Incipio slider case and it has a hole for the cam and LED. I like it the most out of the two other cases I have tried. It was purchased from an AT&T store.

how much was it? pics?

I couldn't post the link yet, just Google this: Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 EDGE Hard Shell Slider Case. Details on the myincipio.com site.

**Nevermind, I was thinking camera LED, not notification. I didn't even notice it was covered!

well i just drilled a hole where Notifications LED is but apparently i went a tad high so i had to make the hole bigger, oh well, as long as the LED is noticeable from all angles, hopefully Incipio will revise this design but i highly doubt it

I cant find this item on ebay, can someone post pics please ?

Genuine Samsung Galaxy S3 Flip Cover Video Review

As always any feedback is more than welcome

Good point someone just made, you can't see the LED for notifications.
Not a major thing for me but it maybe for some people.

It also makes using the camera a bit of a pain. Useful for proping up the phone though.

Yeah I agree. Not my kind of case tbf but as it's a genuine product I thought I'd review it. My favorite case so far is a case from tech21

Like the fit, but blocking the led and awkward way you'd have to use camera make it a no go.
great review though.

Yeah I'm aware the proximity sensor turns the screen off when it's by the side of your face but I thought it was worth pointing out it still works with the case.

Hello everyone,
I'm using the flip cover on my S3 and is exactly what i wanted. The only problem is the led being covered, so, i used a tool that i have to make holes on belts to make one on the cover and now is perfect for me.
See the pic below. The cover is very hard, i had to make a lot of "force" to make the hole.

I doubt they will but I think it would increase sales as a lot of people have pointed out the issue. I can't see how they can solve the issue of using the camera though.

Can someone that owns this case answer me this;
Is this cover protective for the screen in a case of a fall? I mean does it "lock" in place over the screen? If you turn it upside down for example, the flip opens?
I believe its the most basic thing that should be answered (if it does not protect the screen its useless) and no one in any review does this simple test.

Sorry I thought it was clear, no it doesn't lock to the screen so it dropped it could easily flap open.

ive pre ordered the case as its not out in australia yet, i should be getting it next week. never really thought about the camera and stuff until you guys mentioned it. ive used pu leather flip cases before and havnt really found it a problem. hopefully ill enjoy it as much i planned to. i love the looks and quality of the case, ive paid $39 aus for this product. cant wait..

I got one of these a couple of weeks back for my device. I found it was rather annoying having to hold it at an awkward angle when on the phone. I wish they'd made it flip up or down instead of to the side. It also means you can't hold it very well with your left hand either, as it adds even more width on to the device!
I've switched to a skin thingy now instead, even though it leaves the screen open to damage. I'm still looking to get some kind of plastic cover I can use with the skin I've got though.

Official LG Quick Cover

Got my nexus today and the official quick cover I ordered came with it too, even though the order indicated part dispatch. I had assumed this meant the case had been delayed.
Have to say it is a very nice case, feels great, nice snug fit and it is really thin. While it is still bedding in the front flap is lifting slightly when closed (see pic) but I am sure this will give a bit in the next few day's.
Not worth £35!!!!! But it is a nice case. If the spigen one is as nicely made (seem to be looking at pics and reviews) then it will make them a bargain

Nice, but I REALLY miss the Nexus sign from the back...

Yes, correct. Notification light is obscured by cover.
LG/Google case design = FAIL
Time to get out the drill or hole punch, shall I take the phone out of the case before I begin drilling?

haha, there aren't many pictures with a broken screen yet so do it! ;p
where did you get the quick cover? Play store?

Was in new gadget blindness mode and didn't really think about the cost, at £35 it is a bit too much.
I reckon at that price the hole punch cut out for the notification light should go for about £4 on eBay

You had me going there for a moment - I had to reach all the way past my keyboard at work to test your theory.
Phew, I am not an idiot after all, although most of my daily actions would prove otherwise, LGoogle have forgotten to poke a hole in their case!
I will have to ring them and see if they can mail me a hole upgrade? If the makers of polo mints can remember to put holes in their products, I don't see why LGoogle can't
What do you think Google will charge me for postage on a hole?

I really like it but to bad the nexus logo on the back is lost

Id love to get this but losing the nexus logo is a no go for me. I think ill just buy a real bumper.

Does that mean that the front flap isn't magnetized? I'd heard it was and that when you open it, it unlocks your screen.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I have the case as well myself. The flap IS magnetised. The magnet is actually located above the volume buttons, so that when closed the magnet touches the screen glass over the volume buttons.
And I agree, while the case is nice, it definitely isn't worth £35, more like £15 and that's pushing it.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Ok...how did you guys get the case? When I look in the Google Play store, it says "coming soon". I'm in Canada (eh?) and never have any issue purchasing other stuff. I got the white Nexus 5 and thought the white flipcase would look SIC!!!

I received my Quick Cover with my Nexus 5 on Monday. First time I have used a case like this and I must say I am impressed. It feels premium (perhaps not £35 premium) and does not add as much bulk to the phone as I expected.
I for one am glad it has no notification light hole as the light used to wake me in the night on my bedside table.
One question to any other owners, is the rear too thick for wireless charging to work?

Pretty sure wireless charging is fine with this case, think I read it somewhere?
I am sure LGoogle wouldn't overlook this, especially considering they are releasing a charger for the nexus devices too.

The hole in the picture is at the top for the earpiece so you can talk on the phone with the cover closed...

What happens if the flap is closed, you receive an incoming call and open the flap? Does that automatically answer the call? What happens to a call when you close the flap?
Thanks for your feedback.

Opening the flip just turns on the screen. All it does is it saves your pressing the power button. You still have to swipe to unlock if you have it turned on, still have to enter your unlock code etc. When there's an incoming call, after opening the flip you still have to swipe to answer/reject/silence the call. And closing the flip doesn't end calls either, it just turns off the display, or the speaker hole on the flip would be pointless.

Problem with smart case

Hello guys! New to the smart case thingy, so a few questions to ask before I do anything to hurt my device unintentionally.
1. I bought a cheap smart case from my local night market, it is a lot cheaper than the "original" one from the phone store, does it works the same as well? I mean, well the night market one possibly damage my device?
2. When i use my "smart case", when i flip it open, the screen turns blue first before goes into the lockscreen. when i unlock, it flashes blue screen too before i can see my homescreen. is that normal?
Please. all helps will be appreciated. Thanks!

P8000 smart-view cover

Hello guys.
I received yesterday my official p8000 cover with smart-view.
I made a video about it if you want.

Pretty good right now, I don't know yet if quality is good.
but first impression not that great.
EDIT: I don't know how to but youtube video here (doesn't seem to work) so here is the link.

Nice review. Thanks for adding subtitles ��

Wow, a magnet triggers the smart screen?
Please, tell us more!
I have bought another ”original” protective case, much cheaper - but it doesn't activate the smart screen (although it completely covers the screen).
Do you think I can ”smarten” my cover?
Merci in advance.

Before you do anything to your cover, have a magnet, and put it in front to the black thing between the front camera and the speaker.
If it show you a circle (like my video) it's ok for you.
What you have to do is to add a magnet inside your cover.
Honestly, it has more probability to destroy your cover or make it ugly than make it perfect.
I think it's way more better for you to add another cover. This one seems ok and seems to have a magnetic lock.

I have already punched a hole in the cover, down below, in order to actually see the notification led, so adding an ultra-thin magnet on the inside won't be a problem. The problem is, placing a magnet in that spot (the sensor between the front camera and the speaker) doesn't do anything.

I would recommend upgrading to Eragon ROM, perhaps wait for the soon to be released v4.0 or else you can try a factory reset of your current rom.
