Diablo skinz - post here.

Thought i'd start a post for anybody who has these skins for their gs2. I ordered the flame skin and its excellent quality...here's some pictures...
Website : diabloskinz.com. There's over 40 skins for the gs2...some of then are fantastic. Web site is viewable on the phone.

are those flames printed on screen protectors ?
Edit:Nevermind just went to their sites and they provide wallpapers which match their skins .

Anyone else?

Yeah i maybe interested in buying one of these, being as it's only a skin but does it offer decent protection, could i ditch my case?

well, i have a rubber surround for mine...but i installed a screen protector and then applied the skin to it.

Them flames dont look too bad.
Are these skins really thin then, like the screen protectors?
Are they stuck on with glue, will the glue/sticky stuff remain on the phone once skin is removed?
Good concept though (skin with matching/flowing wallpaper)
Ive had a look on the site and now i know nobody else has one of these, its cos 90% the designs are all too cartoony or for younger people, except for the flames one pretty much.
I wouldnt like to pull out a phone covered in cartoons infront of colleagues.
Something simple like the D&G stripes down the back and front (on the left side)would look good imo but obv that would cost alot more.

the skinz are very thin and are sticky on the back...not glue tho...piss easy to install...you get a part for the centre button and for the surrounding camera tho i lost that bit lol...i agree that the others are abit cartoony but, well, you said it yaself, the flames skinz is the most suitable...it does make the phone stand oit tho..i've had numerous people ask me about the skin...

Or dip phone in plasti-dip or liquid tape.. just kidding

Hoco genuine leather flip case

Thinking of pushing the button on one of these. Minimal bulk for a leather case by the looks. Anyone had experience with hoco before?

HOCO is a brand in HongKong,their leather cases are very good. My sister purchased a white one for her Phone two weeks ago, it fits well and the quality is ok.

Pushed the button and it will arrive tomorrow. Sometime in the next few days I will attempt to post a review.

Looks good!

I don't have any direct experience with Hoco, but I have had similar cases from other manufacturers for my previous phones in the past. All I can say is that pictures are deceiving...those cases add a lot of bulk to a phone, additionally the flap just plain gets in the way and makes the while thing even bigger. Just my opinion, I know this type of case works for some people or they wouldn't still be making them.

These are the cases I am currently using, but does not include cases I have tried:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28808929&postcount=2
Also, most leather covered plastic cases run at least 2-3mm thick. A case like the one in the OP would increase the size of your phone ~6mm in every direction. On a positive note it would give you a lot of drop protection over slimmer cases...if that's what your looking for.

Poop. Wish you'd posted a few hours ago, might have reconsidered my decision.
Still it's too late now so I'm going too have to try it out now and see if I can live with the extra bulk.
Thanks for your input.

I'm glad you are happy with it..."bulky" means different things to different people. I know people who think that Otterbox style cases aren't bulky...And other people who think a 1.5mm TPU case is too bulky...LOL.
Please report back after a few weeks of use after the new case smell has worn off

I bought the samsung flip case,and I like it very much.
The only thing about it's very hard to get it out of the case.
I used it a lot in the car holder,so in and out.
Cheers

There is one problem with this sort of cases is that you cannot use a dock and does not allow charging with flip closed....

One further suggestion would be for a hole to view the notification led without having to undo the case!

Yeah that's the only thing I'm not really happy about. Other than that case is great. The usb thing doesn't really bother me ... so I have to have the case open to charge it ... It's quite safe sitting in my desk anyway. It's when it's in my pocket or bag I need to protect the screen.

It's not magnetic. There is a clip at the top of the flip that clicks snugly over the top of the phone. It seems very secure. I'm a little worried the leather hinge may stretch later and compromise the firmness of the clip but time will tell.

Can I ask if the back is lined with soft material and also how would this case compare with the official Samsung case?

Samsung like battery covers for Xperia S

I was looking for a cover like the galaxy note has and I found these:

What do you think about it?

Pretty ugly. Do you like them?

What's wrong with the design :S?
It's the same as the cover the galaxy note has just white and black instead of dark blue.
I've bought it since I hate those cases which makes my phone twice as thick.

It's not good for sony product.
Maybe just a case is better way.

Its just normal flap case with 3m dinoc on it. I put dinoc on my Xperia S case and it looks great. Bettery than the shiny plastic it consists of.

But this one also has leather for the flip and the edges on the back cover are plastic ( no dinoc getting loose )

Oh and I ordered the white carbon fiber one since I got a white xperia s.
Expect pictures in 1 or maybe even 2 weeks (shipping from hongkong...)

just received a few days ago the white carbon fiber version ^^
I'll post some picture in the OP.

Today I received the black carbon fiber version.
I like it, my old back plate was almost falling off :-S.
Now its nice and thight again. And it looks good.

S-View cover cases?

Hello!
Long story short, I had an ultra thin matte case on my phone, but it literally just shattered on me when I dropped my phone. Got away with a few nicks...
So now, I'd like to invest in a flip case as them seem to provide better protection for the face. I know our phones aren't equip with OLED screens, but with apps floating around that mimic S-view notifications, I thought I'd try to find one with a cut out. I've found these:
Rock window case - Seems to tick all the boxes, but I'm not too keen on the latch thing
KLD KA case - Looks perfect, but it's for the max.
"Thin flip case" - Kinda just like this with a cut out would be great.
Have I missed any? Or any recommendations for cases in general would be great thanks.

speck cases!!!!! they are here !!!

just got bored surfing the web and thought i would see if speck made nexus 5 cases yet. and i guess i lucked out !!!!
http://www.speckproducts.com/google...ses-and-covers/candyshell-for-lg-nexus-5.html
downfall is they are 35 bucks. i was hoping for $25. well if anyone gets one post up what you think of it. i want to know if these have any issues with the power button not having any click feel to it and or easy to press by accident

expensive !!
they are over priced ..
thats my opinion .

Finally! Now speck and tech21 have released cases and imo, they are the best brands out there!

they look nice, but those colors are horrendous, except for the blue and white one. would love to know why they are priced that way when it seems they are made out of the same material as any other dual layered case.
if they ever go on sale ill pick one up.

Speck always over charges for their cases. They cater to the rich stupid iPhone people. And I agree the case colors they choose suck. I wanted a plain black one.

I do like the white and blue one but not for 35 bucks

Those color options are terrible.

Why couldn't they have used more standard colors..

Why they couldn't make a complete black case is beyond me.

Yea thats what i was thinkin. Got the blue and white cause thats the best looking one

This case is great for side and corner impacts, but the small lip hinders its face flat resistance.
My friend has this case on his sgs3, and I saw his phone drop onto our tile office floor and crack the screen, while in the case!
The floor did have a slightly raised edge, due to it being tile, but nothing a good case shouldn't have protected against.

I ordered this case and it should be here tomorrow. Sounds like it may continue using my Ballistic Aspira case if this one doesn't offer much protection.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

^ sorry if my post seemed discouraging. I can only speak for the experiences I've seen with this case in an s3, which is 2 years old.
If the lip is a decent height, things should be fine if it falls facewards. Back and sides should be fine because of the thick plastic/rubber the case is made from. Let us k know how it fists!
