Hello,
I'm looking for a rather specific type of case, I want a case for the OPO, that has the flip part covering the screen, and inside that to have 1 (or more) credit card slots, and if possible a money hole. The catch is I do not want a magnetic latch, I want it to be like magnetic with the screen.
Thanks
--Josh

Like this, but with holes for credit cards
I like these wallet cases, 'cus it means when you leave your phone on the bus/train/bar, you lose all your cards and as an added bonus, you lose all your money too.
How great is that?
although it's not magnetic, this is a great case:

Haha, well that's not a problem for me, I have so many credit cards (10+) and the one that I would be carrying would be to an account that has no more than $100 in it at all times, and is in a seprate bank to all the other ones, so no a problem there.
And I also am not stupid enough to leave my phone on a bus, never left anything on a bus or anything like that...

I installed the one from repairuniverse and it seems to be OEM in all ways but one. The kickstand does not seem to have the transparent coating that the original did. This is a good thing in my opinion since I spent a lot of time pealing mine off after it started to chip a month after I got the phone. Fitment was great and the rest of the look is OEM as I said before

Nah, that's just the crappy coat on the kickstand coming off. tape off around the kickstand, and take a green scrubby pad to it. a bit of metal polish, and it'll look way better than before.
Not necessarily as cheap, but a bit more established and reputable (ordered quite a few things from them for fixing BBs etc.)

If its the surface chiping off then not chems, mine did it 1st week and I ended up pealing the rest off over time with fingernail.

I think that's just a blue protective sticker on the kickstand. Not an actual blue kickstand.
I was @ local Best buy just to see what has been getting on stock and surprisingly enough I found this case and another Belkin which was leather but thicker.
I thought I should share some photos in case anyone is interested.
Price $49.99 before tax.
Material and fabrication is not what exactly I am looking for, but you don't know until you get it.
Here are some photos for you guys...

I thought I mentioned or maybe not. There were both there but leather was kind of thicker since it has more room. It looks nice and price is higher...
What I don't like about this Belkin case is that there is no magnet or velcro to keep it closed.

I really second that. It becomes very flimsy when you use it for a while. $50 for this case? I would rather buy two of the leather ones on eBay.

It has an elastic strap on the inside of the front cover that you put around the back of the device to keep it secure. So yes, it does have something that keeps it closed!

correct, but that is very old-school.
All,
I reviewed both Cases from belkin. I agree with the comments on the board. But there isnt much out there. Check out my review on the more expensive case from belkin. Its not worth the money. Doesnt seem to fit well I looked at two cases from best buy both had the same issues. And it adds too much bulk to the device. I bought a thin device and want a case that compliments it. Not one that adds significant thickness

Yup I know thats why I didn't buy it. I was thinking about taking out the magnets and sewing velcro but not sure how that would work.
Have a look at easecase. You can modify a lot, including how it is closed. I'm sure if you ask they can also use velcro.

Not to mention a friend of mine whos credit card was stored in an non-magnetic flipcase along with his phone and get destroyed, too. Most likely by the magnet that's build in the phones speaker.

Look at carefully. F.e. in the big picture number 3 (both in D1 and D2 description).
Their edges are different. I believe D1 is more comfortable and that is why I bought that.
Velcro is OK. But a little bit weak. There are 2 small velcro in the place of snaps. If I buy now may be I would order one big velcro.
Also D2 has cut. But I asked and they did the same cut for D1. Btw the cut is not so "usable", doesn't help much.
Was the hole for charging?

No. Bottom hole is intended for fingers and making easy to take phone out.
Look f.e. at picture "Belt clip 01" in their customization page. You can see such bottom hole.

Any tips? And affordable max 20$
Hi guys,
I have ordered the nexus 5 from the US and looking for a good case for it. What other than the google's official bumper. Especially the Red & Yellow one is amazing. I was thinking of ordering it for quite some time but till now it has been out of stock. Anyone know any other websites where I can find the official bumper for nexus 5 in Red or Yellow only. Not much of a grey fan which is available in ebay. I know its pricey and I can go for way better options like spigen and cruzerlite and so on... Anyways, help me out here...
Thanks in Advance.
One more thing, I am located in India...
6338963 4402
So...no response?
i have the spigen neo-hybrid myself, and it is a very solid case, the buttons feel great, protection seems pretty solid, the back of the case gets marked up pretty well if you keep it with your keys or something, but they are easily wiped away with some spit. I just ordered the spigen ultra fit clear case and it should be here by the end of the week. Spigen makes some pretty solid cases although some of their cases has been plagued by issues such as the slim armor case.

Lol, of course my two LEAST favorite colors for the case would come back in stock. Hopefully it isn't too much longer for the black one to come back...
I Just wanna know if these cases are the same material and have the same "rubber" feeling of the original back of the phone, can someone who already received it answer me?
That 's the only thing which is still making me doubtful about placing the order

There have been reviews of the official cases for a while now if you're still on the fence. Generally both are a disappointment and overpriced.

have a look on the back,it comes with NFC sticker and from the back it looks like plastic!!and the case is very slim
i have to say the bamboo battery case is a little expensive for me.i am not sure wether i still need to buy a protector case for my OPO?
Put it on, put it on, put it on!

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.

its really beautifull,how much you bought?
Hi Paul, I was planning to buy this case from the same website but was skeptical. Can you post details about how much it cost you to ship and the country you ordered it from. Do you think they ship to India as well?

it was used different bamboo to assemble.i was thought it is a complete bamboo.
Nice, mine is coming soon
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.

Wow, this is the cheapest I have seen it online outside of getting an invite, debating on jumping the gun. Thanks

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.
