Can Anyone suggest a good (Preferably White) Case?

Hey Guys I'm getting a Galaxy Note (White) and I want a good Case that has the following:
-Slim, with little bulk
-White Preferably but can be different
-Raises screen from flat surface
-Covers Buttons Preferably but doesn't have to
-All around good protection and can take a fall!
If anyone has a case or knows of a case like that please feel free to leave a comment!
Thanks for the Help!

I have the SGP Ultra Capsule White case love it so far no complaints

I have the.ringke slim. probably the slimmest around. Took a lot of droppings. Still great.

I have that case and absolutely love it. It's not too thick 3mm? I have no idea. But the tpu sides make it easy to grip and the frosted plastic back gives it a nice look imo. Cut outs are PERFECT too. pressing the side buttons can be a little hard sometimes though, but I usually use the home button to wake the phone.

I have been using a Rearth Ringke Slim since day one and I love it, especially since it has plugs for the charging port and the headphone jack. The screen protector they include is pretty good as well. It's a bit on the expensive side but I think it's worth it. The bottom lip was a millimeter or two off and they sent me another one. I think the white on white looks beautiful.

You should take a look at the Seidio Active Cases. Exceptional quality.

Look for them on eBay if you intend to buy it. It's a lot cheaper there.

I can also second the SGP Ultra Capsule White. It does all that you ask for. The build quality is fantastic where the cut-outs for ports are near perfect. Bright white colour with a slightly glossy look.
Aslo, for the ~£18 you also get a very good screen protector.

Can anyone with an SGP confirm or deny?
If you like your case, please also tell us how long you've had it and the condition it is in today.

i'm also looking for this kind of case, can someone confirm whether the SGP Ultra capsule white is a finger print magnet due to its glossy surface?

I have the Boxwave White TPU with Frosted back case mentioned earlier. It's a nice case but a little thick. The back is pretty touch and is thick enough so that the camera glass is protected.
My biggest complaint is that it picked up blue stains from a pair of new jeans. Took a couple of weeks for the blue to disappear from the case. After about 3 months, the tpu sides are starting to have a very slight yellowish color to them. Tried scrubbing it with Comet Cleaner but did not help.
I also agree that the volume and power buttons can be a little difficult to push and the volume buttons kind of creak, its the TPU rubbing against the the button.
It's not my favorite case I've owned but I'm also not in a hurry to replace it.

Thanks for the feedback! After posting this a lot of people say White Cases turn yellow or start to stain... So I think I am going to go with a Capdase Alumor Metal case instead! Thanks!! you just saved me from a crappy purchase!

+ 1 excellent case.

I have this one in white.

It's got a great fit-n-finish to it. Provides clean access to all the ports, and has a good level of protection.

I've got the Krussell ColorCover in white (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Krusell-ColorCover-Samsung-Galaxy-89631/dp/B0072CM2MS), as I ordered a white Note, but got delivered a black one instead, so this is unused.
I know it doesnt tick all your boxes, but it is a nice case and feels very nice in the hand. You can have it for a fiver if you want. PM me if interested.

i.Carbon + Poetic Atmosphere pictures

Back and forth between cases for the HTC One or a back skin (Ultra Crystal Screen Protector on the front). I have a Poetic Atmosphere case on the way, but wanted to try out a skin to see how it feels, looks, etc.
Ordered a back skin in black and white from i.Carbons and installed the black as figured it would not show marks as much as the white. It really looks good and feels great. Reading the product info on the package is that it is 3M tape.
Goes on very easy and had to reset it a few times to get the corners even on both sides. Cut outs for the camera lens, flash and "HTC" logo on the back all line up pretty well and it really looks nice on. The back is a 3-piece set as there is one for the top, bottom and then the large one for the middle. I only got the back but you can also get the side and front (I believe but I only was interested in the back as I don't care for the carbon fiber look on the front/sides).
I hate to put the One in case as it just feels so nice without one but wanted to protect against scratches. I use thin cases usually, so I'm definitely not looking for drop protection with the cases I have used on past phones.
Have to wait and see if the edges peel up and how it wears overall once I have it on for a few weeks. Might try it in the poetic case since that's set to arrive Monday.
Couple of pictures if this type of protection is what you are looking for.

I think that looks great. When will you throw the white one on?

If you Google "icarbons coupon code" you should find some 15%-25% off code. When I ordered mine they were only running the 15% off but looks like they almost always have some type of code available if you spend 30 seconds on Google.

That carbon fiber looks really good, how was the texture before you put it in the Atmoshere? Was it more slippery than the aluminum?

Actually it provides better grip with the skin on than naked. The case is somewhat slick on the back but the tpu edging is softer so it seems to provide a fairly decent grip.

That looks **** hot. Just ordered a white one myself.

I just ordered the Black and Brushed Aluminum. You can use coupon code AT15 for 15% off your total order. I only ordered the back. They do look good. I had Ghost Armor on mine and pulled it off getting ready for these. Its looks terrible in comparison.

Wow, missed Brushed Aluminium. That looks awesome. Grabbed that instead of the white. Also thanks for the code.

PSA: Don't bother with getting side vinyl if you're planning on using it with the Atmosphere. Since it's so tight to begin with, it's almost impossible to get it on without peeling off the sides.

Well my poetic did not last long.

Dbrand skins for Oneplus One

Hey everyone! Have anybody tried these dbrand skins yet? They were really popular among the nexus 4 users. Would love to know if anyone have tried it on their One yet. https://dbrand.com/shop/oneplus-one

i'd get one but dbrand doesn't recommend using it on the black edition of the OPO (and im sure most people own the black sandstone over the white one)

Don't really have the choice when OnePlus sends invites for 64GB instead of 16GB
dbrand makes awesome skins though. I feel that they should make a third party backplate to put the skins on.

Just kinda crappy because dbrand supports this phone and then no body buys it because it shouldn't be used on sandstone

I have dbrand skins on my nexus 5 and nexus 7. It feels odd not being able to get one on this device do I ordered just the camera skin. yeah it's tiny, but at least it's something. There a awesome company with a awesome product so I don't mind supporting them and getting such a small pointless skin on this device.

I considered doing the same thing, then I found out that even though the camera skin costs only 2$, the shipping itself is 3$...
I'm currently waiting for dbrand to do some sort of free shipping promo and then I'll order mine. I can't stand being a supporter without my phone even wearing a skin
P.S I had a black cf skin on my Nexus 4 for a year and loved it, gotta get something for my black OPO as well

Just ordered a white carbon fiber front, red carbon fiber back, and white camera cutout. Stoked to see them on this device.

Going to order a red carbon fiber camera skin , will look good with my black official flip case
Sent from my OnePlus One

I ordered just the white carbon fiber back, and in my opinion, it looks light-years better than the Sandstone Black. The sides are uncovered by the sticker, so you still get a fair amount of grippiness on the sides. Now, my OPO literally turns heads when I put it on a table. I highly recommend it, despite the warnings. I'll post pictures if there's any interest.

Here is how the mahagony wood looks like. I have the sandstone back and it was very simply to put on. I used a hair dryer to apply.

Love the look of this! Two questions, I heard that the bumper potentially messes up the sides of your phone, is that correct? And will these skins cause the sandstone to wear out in anyway?

This looks amazing, ordering now.

I had one for awhile and it worked great! I have a sandstone black too and it was fine. They give you alot of warnings not to use it on sandstone tho. I eventually took it off though. They only give you a back piece and it makes the sides look weird.

The white carbon looks nice but I find they are a little bit slippery to hold.

Yeah from past experience I find the carbon skins a little slippery compared to the true colour ones. Bought both red and orange for my OPO.

You sure that even with the back being textured its not going to translate the texture of the skin to the same as the back of the phone?

Don't bother with the sanstone cover. The textured surface will make it a very bad adhesion surface for the skin.
What I did with mine was to order the Obsidian Black cover and then apply the skin to that.
It was quite an expensive investment ($50 CAD total) for just an asthetic enhancement but I think the end product looks very nice.

Does this skin comes with side protection? Or its only back?

This is what i made for myself... i Live in INDIA
Dbrand say "No thanks to india"
So i made one myself..... got a Vinyl Wrap and Actually made this...it fits quite nicely and i use it without a Case as i don't worry about damaging the back now!
Plus its Laminated in the Front so screen is protected as well!

P.s. The Skin is Manually Cut using a Blade... So its manually cut .... not 100% perfect as such

Has anyone tried putting one on there bamboo cover ? I'm not considering it but I'm just curious how the adheasive treats the wood.

CAFELE case - best case for mi a1

Hi I wanted to show you what I think is the best case for mi a1. It's very light, thin, it doesn't make your phone bricky, it fits perfectly and is very sturdy on the edges on the phone. It costs 3 dollars here:

well, nillkin is more rugged, so if you tend to drop your phone i'd go with that one, but since i do not drop mine, i just want to protect it from scratches and i went with this thin case.

I've got the same case. Paid $2 shipped on eBay. This case retains the slim feel of the phone...not like you're picking up a brick.

God, I ordered the same one but I was hopping a more red color than what you show on your pics, it seems like your case is more red/pink rather than a strong red, Am I correct?

Yes the red colour is not as strong and bright red as I thought, but it is red. I took pictures with xiaomi redmi note 4 and yes it looks pinky on the photos. The red is kinda washed out but I still like it. Looks better in natural light, and fit and quality is good. I'm going to order one more in different colour.

I just ordered it from aliexpress for the same color as red. I hope the color will look good.

I have one red and one black. They are really nice.

Font

Using the same, but black color. Beautifull but not the best protection for drops.

Gets loose pretty easily
I bought one, cut outs are pretty good of this case. But finger print cutout is not good. After few days of use it got loose and wubbly

A Better Case
For me I like the Carbon Fiber one. It's for those who are looking for something more sturdy, unfortunately it makes the phone slightly bulky (I like this because I play a lot of games, easy to hold), but for those who are looking for something slender, it's not the way to go.
aliexpress.com/item/For-Xiaomi-Mi-5X-Case-For-Xiaomi-Mi-5X-Cover-Slim-Carbon-Fiber-Soft-Case-For/32829899124.html
I didn't buy it here, but these are the cases. I got the black one + my gold Xiaomi Mi A1. It's superb quality.
I accidentally dropped my phone multiple times and face-first, but this case delivered. It protects the phone because the rims of the case are slightly above the phone's screen, and since it's carbon fiber, it's as sturdy as a rock. :good:

I think the best case is to get standard silicon transparent case to show my beautiful Red edition Mi A1

thanks for the tip, super cheap
bought one just now

Cafele back covers and glass protector are top quality and feels very premium in hand. They are surely little expensive but one can only feel difference when they hold it in hand
