Hi, I'm currently searching for a champagne gold hardcase for my OnePlus. I'm looking for a case that has a full bottom, top and sides, and also has cutouts for the microphones, audio jack, buttons, speakers and charging port. I would also like this to be of decent quality, and I'm not too bothered about pricing (within reason). Can you guys help me?

Hyperion Matte TPU Case-is the perfect budget-friendly case for the Moto X. All of the cutouts match the camera and flash, speaker grill, mic, charging port, headphone jack, and Motorola emblem perfectly, while the case itself doesn’t feature any company branding, which is a big plus for many. The raised edges on the front of the phone take care of the screen from face down drops, and the inclusion of a screen protector is a nice addition for even more display protection. The case also adds only minimal bulk to the smartphone, and is aesthetically pleasing, being available in various color options. While a simple and standard TPU case, it’s still a great buy at a price point of $7.99 on Amazon.

And the reason you posted this is.....?
The title of the thread makes no sense with the content and you copied and pasted a product's description with no explanation.

After few days of using this case, here are my toughts.
GOOD: Kickstand, Dual layer protection, materials, price, and design
BAD: Top left corner doesn't fit perfectly, orange colur is not as vivid as it is on the picture of E-Bay seller.
Price of the case is 2,74 $ with free shipping. I think it's a real bargain. You can see more in this "quick look" video.

Can you post a picture of the side with the magnetic charging port? I assume it's covered but wondering if you can trim the inner case to be able to use the magnetic charger or will the black back piece be in the way? Is the orange part TPU or softer silicone material?

Check the video and you will see.
Clicking to watch the video says it's a bad link. Didn't work on my phone or tablet but worked on my PC.

I currently have the spigen ultra hybrid case and it holds up well but the cutout for the headphone jack is too small. It won't any of my headphones, which is the Sanheiser HD 202 II. Are there any cases out there that have a bigger cutout for the headphone jack?
The Spigen is a great case. You could probably drill it better, or change the headphone cord... I'd keep the case.
Yes, I had to take that decision so I kept the spygen hybrid case and drilled a bigger hole
You could always get a small extension cable with a thinner recessed casing like this.
I have one of these and it fits every case. The jack tip is the same size as on a set of ear buds. Then you just plug whatever headphones you want into the adapter. Saves you having to modify or drill your case.

I have the DayJoy "luxury" bumper which is an absolute joke. The headphone and microphone cutouts aren't even aligned properly so I can't plug my right-angle headphones in.
Anyone know of a good bumpers?
Aluminum bumpers in general are bad, they hurt signal strength.
That said I also want a nice bumper..
Not being satisfied with any of the cases available I decided to purchase the Case_Mate Z1C Tough case and make some modifications to adapt it to my Z3C.
There are three areas that I modified:
1: The camera opening for the flash.
2: Adding an opening to allow magnetic charging.
3: Adding a hole for the top noise cancelling microphone.
Note: The power button location is slightly off between the Z1C vs Z3C but using the power button has not been a problem at all, all the buttons have a nice feel similar to the Ringke Fusion case. As a bonus for me the USB flap is slightly covered by the Z1C case so it holds the flap closed, you could trim the case if you needed constant access for USB charging instead of trimming the case for a magnetic charger.
The tools I used were an Xacto knife, Dremel with a small grinding stone and a drill with a small drill bit. I used a Z3C TPU case to mark where the camera flash needed to be trimmed and the noise canceling mic to be added. The noise cancelling mic hole was easy to add by simply drilling the hole in the case, I used the Xacto knife to clean up the hole to make it nice and smooth. The camera flash opening took a bit of patience as I cleaned up the initial Xacto knife cuts with the Dremel grinding stone and tried the cover on the phone several times while taking pictures. The last opening I did was for the magnetic charging port, this was fairly simple to do and depending on if you want to use a dock(I think it will work) or have a larger magnetic cable tip you might need to trim a bit more than I did. The opening was cut with an Xacto knife and I used the Dremel grinding stone to clean the cut up and make the final shape. I do plan on evening out the lower edge of my opening the next time I take the case off but right now my charging cables attach perfectly the first shot even in the dark, no fumbling to make the connection.
Note: I did all the cutting, drilling and grinding from the inside of the case.
The case is very nice to hold with plenty of grip and feels very well protected without being bulky at all. This case feels like it costs $35(purchased on Amazon) vs the other cases I've used and IMO is well worth the cost and an hour or so of your time. I have a generic TPU, Bugdroid, Toperk, Ringke Fusion, a book case and one other generic TPU/plastic case and I can FINALLY say I'm satisfied with this modified Case-Mate case.
Hey that looks really nice!
I think I might do the same thing, plus I might try to put sugru on the flap opening and the rear part where the Z1C LED was so I end up with a cleaner finish, just telling you in case you want to do the same I'm hitting that thanks button!
Thanks, after 2+ weeks with this case I am MORE than satisfied. I might try the Sugru idea you had.
Hey - thanks for post.
I have also just upgraded from Z1c to Z3c and was planning to cut out the flash area on my Tough Case - had NOT even noticed the small mic hole at the top (I have already done the magnetic port cutout for my Z1C - following another post on here)
Cheers!
Bump for those looking for the best protective case.
In my opinion best looking case with the right openings in the right places is the CruzerLite Bugdroid case. It has a great protection at the same time.

Cruzerlite makes the best TPU cases hand down, I think most anyone will agree with that. Problem is they don't offer them without some Android type design on them so they don't appeal to everyone. I have one for my Z3C and it fits great and gives decent protection but the case can feel a bit slippery.
