Hey guys, new to the forums, any one use one? or can recommend one like that one? What I want is, a tpu case that glued to a flip cover/wallet. I used one like that, for a couple of $, with my iPhone 4, and liked it a lot, as to differ from other wallet cases, that use a plastic frame, a TPU has more shock resistance. I could buy a cheapo one from eBay, buy want a more quality one, so what can you recommend?

I tried out the VZW gel case but it felt too slippery (+too expensive!) so I returned it.
I am looking for that style of case but something with a little more grippage.
Is anyone using something they could recommend?
Thanks
Hey. I don't have this case in my possession just yet, but the Xoom case Genius by Zoogue was my definite choice! Its leather, so not may have the grippyness you prefer, but it looks amazing! It can be used as a stand, a full body cover, car head rest mount, and has a strap so you can wrap it around your hand. I preordered a while back and should have it soon. This brand has high praise for their genius cases.

You can find actual reviews for their cases on other devices as well.

I think I'll be getting an otterbox defender case for mine..
...
+1 for Otterbox!
I found these cases on ebay and can't beside between the 3. Which do you think is better and why? Thanks.

ewwww. all 3 of them. tpu or ringke rearth case ftw.
Why do you say that? Do you have the Rearth? How is it? I liked these cases because they look like a colorful otterbox.
thinking about getting a ringke rearth. they look nice. i just think they're ugly because they're so fat and bulky. but you may need the protection so function over form in that case. i don't need that much protection so function and form are equal for me. i had an otterbox once for a nokia e71 and i needed it then, but it was awful big and a pain in the ass sometimes. such a pain that i started carrying in my pocket instead of holster and i lost it somehow. yes, from my pocket. i was pissed.
The 2nd and 3rd resemble the ballistic shell gel cases, but uglier. I have a rearth ringke slim and i like it. I also have a couple diztronic tpu cases and like them as well.
I ended up ordering a Seidio active case for mine $29 after taxes, I looked at other cases that would fit with the extended back but I've always gone with Seidio on my other devices and just couldn't stray away.

I have the first link case identical. I got it yesterday. The black is a rubber piece that goes around the red plastic does a very poor job. It would not survive a fall high than 3 feet. I will be returning mine. I am now looking for a white case and a good holster. Any suggestions are great.
Hmmm, i don't know which to pick. The reason I wanted to buy one off of ebay is because I have $25 ebay bucks. I originally liked the metallic but I heard it was slippery so I'm starting to think I should go with the matte black. Can anyone find one on ebay?
That first one looks sketchy, idk looks cheap. id kinda not get any of those. Just get an Otterbox, thats basically what these are posing. I realize these are cheaper but also these look it. If not then maybe their are other brands that could get you some reliability. I personally dont know because i rocked my D1 naked for two years and im rocking a cruzer on my Nexus. I also have an otterbox as a backup (thats the tough case).
I currently have the otter box but I would like to add some color which is why I am looking at these cases.

I know you can get them for like 4 bucks on amazon but does anyone have one to put their two cents in? Reliable?
Eh they're alright you get what you pay for. It actually protects surprisingly well from drops. You can get good ones from "mall stalls"

They're great; they're not soft, lint-collectors like rubber ones, but they're not hard and shatter-prone like hard cases. They're somewhere in between. I'd recommend them. Used them on my Evo 3D and GSII. I'd say get them either from Amazon or here (this is the website for real TPU cases): http://tpu-cases.com/ If you order from Amazon, Diztronic is the original seller.
Thanks yeah I got the diztronic matte black one. It's awesome

My hard plastic cases get crack easily after dropped a few times. TPU can hold and protect your phone well and it's last longer.

Cruzerlite TPU skins. Amazon, lots of colors and designs. $9 and change a piece, but i believe buy 2 get one free.

They're a mix of both worlds. It really depends on your own opinion though.
I have the TPU Matte black case on my Galaxy S2 and I'll have to say it's great for the price. I had the Case-Mate Pop before but it made the phone feel too bulky.
TPU cases are a great value . Even an inexpensive one purchased at fleabay works well .
definitely think a cheap tpu case is the way to go. I bought the s-line tpu case off ebay for 1.90 shipped for my amaze
I've used a couple and think they are solid enough. They're great protection but sometimes don't add much in the wow factor to the look of the phone.
I have 4 cruzerlite TPU cases i purchased from Amazon. Its the only skin/case i have ever used on my razr since December and i dont have a single mark on my phone.

TPU cases are the way to go. Gel and silicon are to flimsy. Hard cases make a drop even worse for a phone. TPU cases are sturdy but soft enough to protect when dropped.

The Rock ones are the best you will get for the price. Screen & lens protection, great quality. There is a thread on here.
mmm for 4 dollars is very difficult to find something good on ebay I saw some leather to 11.99 for various models. regards
TPU cases that i've used are pretty good against shock, i've dropped my phone a few times and its still in one piece
More money, like 16, but I LOVE the SGP Spigen Capsule Series. The white makes it look like a white GSII or white One X or White iPhone
NICE
I get all of my phone cases from eBay. For about $2 I can get virtually any color/design/material case that I want.

Anyone know out where to buy good TPU bumpers these days?
Seems like ebay only carries the black one, alibaba sells the cheap white one with the front edges that come off easily.
I sent a message to poetic hoping they will consider making some higher quality bumpers for the Galaxy Nexus..
I saw an aluminum one being sold on amazon for like $12
http://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-bump...8&qid=1380647477&sr=8-5&keywords=i9250+bumper
Better use tpu one, not aluminum. If you drop it couple of times you will need to buy new one aluminum.

Aluminum would most likely protect it more when you drop it.
I really like the look of the aluminum ones but have been hesitant on picking one up fearing it would drastically kill my connectivity,
Does anyone have experience with the aluminum bumpers and noticed any loss of signal ?
Aside from aluminum can any of recommend some other bumpers
Found a plastic and rubber one and tried to order from a site called airyear electronics. Kind of sketchy but I gave it a shot...
They emailed me a few days later to tell me it was out of stock :/

Golly I've seen many cases and I can't say I've seen that. I was wanting an iPad smart case that protects the full edge but I went with a roocase origami instead...
