Does look indeed very well made, out of the phone.
I myself have the Bamboo OnePlus One limited edition, so I've never had the heart to take it off.
Congratulations on your purchase though!
Does this need a special invite or is a regular invite for the phone also good ?

You should watch the video on how it's made. It's just a piece of bamboo pressed and laminated on a piece of plastic with indentures.

Maybe a noob question but, why is it come with NFC sticker inside?
Doesn't the phone already has NFC?
I'm asking because i saw others back covers (sandstone and white) and they say it doesn't incluide NFC.

No the NFC antenna is stuck to the back cover and uses the contact points on the phone to connect them, without that antenna, NFC will not work.

Huh, on the site it really looks like a fake. I would've never bought it from that site just seeing those pictures, luckily it seems you got an original one.
I also bought my JBL Edition OPO from Aliexpress and the bamboo cover was shipped and am waiting for it. Another 50 orders were placed and 10 feedback left with all saying it is genuine and very happy with the product.
Here it is the product I have ordered. I find Aliexpress better than ebay chinese stuff sometimes and I always order products with 50+ orders and feedback and carefully read the description and take a look at the sellers description.

Like most stores, my at&t store was sold out of the body glove case people have been raving about lately, so i ended up having to go with a $40 nasty leather belt clip (though that was so they'd agree to give me the phone for $90...)
Anyway, while searching around online I finally found one at daydeal . com (search for 'body glove captivate', can't post links yet sorry). Just ordered it today (8/21), so I'll post an update when it gets here confirming it's the same case as the one sold at the store. $6 cheaper too for the moment.
EDIT: just arrived. It's the exact same case, even to the point of coming in the same box.
It's actually cheaper too!!

They gave me that case with my phone. I like it alot.
These are also in stock at my local best buy store. It was 24.99. They only had 1 in stock and i bought it
I manage a retailer store and i have 5 of the cases at one time. I could sell the case for 12 all day long. Nice thing about not being corporate. Let me know if anybody wants to buy from me shipping would prob be around 5?

Give that its soft leather not hard plastic I would assume so.
Did Motorola just released an official case of this? You bet!!
So with soft leather the scratching issue should be a thing of the past.
But for me the huge news and most important part is that they put three standing positions on it (instead of two of the previews case). That gives three viewing angles to this case (plus one flat view) with the lower one as showing to the picture to be what is called the "typing angle"!!!
So in summary, for me, this case is nothing less than a perfection of the original case!!
THUMBS UP!!
sooooo
so the verizon stores have this?? how can i buy it or look at it in store

The problem I have with the current hard plastic folio case is that the Xoom is too heavy and doesn't stay at the lower "typing angle" notch w/o slipping and folding totally flat.
I don't see how this leather case would work differently.
That's what I like on the Apple iPad cases (either the original or the new smart cover) is that the typing angle setting is pretty solid/stable, and the device doesn't "slip" and drop completely flat while you're typing or even clicking icons/links/etc.

Just thought I would mention this. We finally now have an official Leather Folio case solution sold directly from Verizon. It is a foldable leather case like ones for the ipad. I dont have a picture of it now but will post one tommorow. You will not find this case online. For some reason only employees have been told about it but anyone should be able to order it from customer service or through a store's ordering option.

There is no cutout at the bottom for charging. See the pictures I posted at the URL provided in the post above.
It is very similar to the Moto Folio case in design, much "sexier" in appearance though.
Just ordered one myself. Should be here in a couple of days.
Convincing the Verizon guy that I didn't want the plastic one was a bit of a chore. Thankfully I had the part number from this thread.

I linked to your post in the op, hope you dont mind.
So I saw a lot of requests for a video of the Sweet Armor metal bumper for the Galaxy S2 so I decided to upload a review of it. I received it in the mail today and so far it has been pretty good. I probably won't be using it though since need to use the Case-Mate Pop's kickstand very often. I highly recommend the bumper though. It is a much better option than the Taurus bumper and the other available bumpers.
The best part is that it will fit the 2000mAh battery with the backdoor!
Also, I will be receiving my black brushed aluminum back cover for the phone on Saturday. If you want any pictures of that or pictures of it paired with the Sweet Armor case let me know.

Regarding the Aluminium Back-Cover
Hey there matey,
First of all, thank you for the detailed report, both the text and video iterations.
I just wanted to ask (I just ordered the Sweet-Armor bumper in black), where did you order the back-cover from?
I ask this as the seller from whom I purchased the bumper from, did not include the back-cover. (Not sure if it's meant to be part of the package)
Cheers.
Looks like eBay sellers are starting to carry these, but some are claiming they're official. Check the colors..pretty sure Google isn't carrying blue. They look good and for the price....pshhh. Right now take another $5 off the amazon deal.

Have had one for a few days now off eBay.
Knew it was obviously fake due to price but thought I'd try it out anyway (packaging was fantastic lol, taped up Google box)
The sides of the case come in on an angle towards the phone, not sure if it's like that on official model. Buttons are literally 1-1.5mm in height so pressing them is impossible.
Apart from those defects, the case fits great

Thanks for the info. Wouldn't be surprised if they are exact replicas of the original with maybe some color variations...And I noticed the taped up Google packaging on one of the eBay listings..lol
I'd be a bit worried. Google couldn't even get the case right with it's early degradation problems. Maybe this will be a case of the knock off being superior to the real thing? I'd have my doubts though.
Can someone that has this case post pictures?

How much are you guys getting these? On eBay they're 22 and amazon 18? A bit expensive for a clone isn't it?
Sent from my white LG Nexus 5
Amazon was knocking another $5 off at checkout. I do think that's still expensive considering you can get a tpu case for a couple bucks, but when comparing to what Google's charging, its a decent deal if the quality is the same or better.
Just received the black case. It came in a legit Google package that didn't look to be tampered with. Only issue being the packaging is for a gray case. The case fits like a glove and quality seems alright. The color is uniform throughout, unlike the two toned look of the Google bumper. Overall I'm satisfied..

Is there any way to get the Sandstone back cover replaced? I cracked mine today
TIA
I emailed OnePlus, their answer what that even though they said you'd be able to buy replacement Sandstone Black backs starting Oct. 1st, this isn't happening and there's no ETA for when they'll be available to purchase.
I also looked through eBay and AliExpress for these, seems like all the sellers are selling backs without side buttons and with no NFC support.
I also emailed OnePlus and there response was
"Please keep on following our forum, there are newest info about the back cover."
So, in short, I don't think they've got plans either way right now
Me and my gf both have been waiting for a replacement sandstone-black back cover since July(!!!!!) as they were both damaged due to their sub-par quality flip covers. I would not hold my breath for them to make them available soon....

Also no Sandstone material, So i found one on eBay it seems legit. But there are no buttons, when i contacted the buyer he stated i can use the ones now on the original cover.
If this is true i reveille it's a good option: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/181559987186...eName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
Is the sandstone and white backs interchangeable?
I'm pretty sure it is. But I don't know about the unofficial ones posted above. The white back cover is inferior in term of grip and feel though.
I saved this site for future reference. Thinking a out buying the white backing and also a black just in case my original gets damaged.

I don't like the feel of the sandstone back.
Are there any non 50 dollar wood ones?
Anyone pull the trigger on any of these? I got a scuff on mine that is driving my ocd crazy.

Curious as well. I have mine in a Diztronic TPU case but I'd be less likely to use a case if I knew the backs were easily/cheaply replaceable.

Also no Sandstone material, So i found one on eBay it seems legit. But there are no buttons, when i contacted the buyer he stated i can use the ones now on the original cover.
If this is true i reveille it's a good option: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/181559987186...eName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

Couldn't you replace it from the one you're replacing it from?

I'm not an expert but I believe its almost a sticker and would be worried about damaging it.

This is what a Standard NFC tag looks like:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Just be careful w/ it. Look at how it's attached to the back, if you feel confident in yourself to replace it do it, if not don't. It's not as fragile or thin as you think it is.
Just don't purposely bend / crease, fold / rip it, go under the adhesive, and then stick it onto the other back.
I haven't tried myself, but maybe applying heat with something like a blow-dryer might help it come off easily. I would be careful though, it might damage the NFC capability. Just an assumption.

Speak for yourself. I use it atleast 3 times a week it's pretty useful when it works!
