Hi, I am planning to buy the phone in the next couple of months. I was interested if there is already available bumper for this phone, that only covers the metal side frame and the corners of the phone and not its back. I mean something like this for OnePlus One : http://images.octoder.com/product/or_040405-45010_c3b.jpg . As you can see, it is only a frame around the phone.
I've searching also for a bumper to Op2. I'll prefer a tpu instead a aluminium bumper...

How about a side skin? Like the metal, but hate how slippery it is. Dbrand has nothing, and haven't been able to find anything like that on Amazon or ebay. Anyone had any luck?

I bought the orzyl fusion case and took out the hard clear plastic back (it literally pops out). Now I have a wonderful black rubber bumper case and can see/ feel the back of my sandstone back! amazon.co.uk/Orzly%C2%AE-FUSION-Bumper-Oneplus-OnePlus/dp/B012Y59YYQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1444055316&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=oneplus+two+bumper&psc=1
I'm patiently waiting for one similar to the OP, I have the flip case and now want something slim to protect the sides

Thanks for the suggestion, just did this as well.
It doesn't fit quite as snug as I'd like, but it'll do until a reasonably priced bumper comes along.

Slightly rounded edges feel great in hand.
You'll need to stuff something between the bumper and the phone to make it tight.
Im going for the rhino shield Bumper. It looks great and after I saw a review of it I'm sure it's the right choice.

Hey mate, I have the fusion case as well but I can't remove the clear plastic back. How did you get it out?

sorry, wrong thread
There are the usual ones on aliexpress and eBay. They go around 7-8 USD and are rounded rather than flat. I've had a lot of experience with these cheap bumpers and what you want are the screwless ones (as they fall out with use) and something more aesthetically pleasing (such as rounding, or unique features) or else you'll end up taking it off eventually and throwing it out.
That or spend money on the more expensive ones. It's probably worth it if you think about it.

You kind of have to push hard.
With the case backside up, try starting near a corner and kind of in a peel back motion holding the bumper part while pushing the clear part down with your thumbs. Once you get the first section loose, the rest kind of peels off.

I see... I tried but it is very hard and the plastica was almost broken instead of coming out.
Anyway I noticed that some shops are selling the case saying that is "version 2" that is the one I have.
Maybe you have the previous version?

Hi All

I'm with you, this phone is too expensive to damage. I've been searching everyday and have yet to find anything. I usually prefer Ballistics' cases but I doubt they will be making one for this phone so it's back to the drawing board. I'm also wondering if zagg will be making a screen protector for this device. Don't know what I can expect with such a massive device. Maybe turn to the manufacturers of the best tablet cases... I'll post here when I find some cases.

I'm liking the little brown case that just has a front flat that opens up like a book but it's not protective at all lol

I think the case of expansys is sleek. It's not making the note any thicker.
Hope they got variety of colors though..
samsung flipover
Samsung will come with a flipover, the back of the flipover will replace the original back of the note. So the note will only become a few mm thicker
I'm also looking to get the Samsung flipover cover when it becomes available. The only problem is the side of the Note remains unprotected, I'm thinking getting a gel case and trim off the left hand side so it will fit togther with the flipover cover.
Meanwhile, here is a really nice durable skin that is already available on Amazon I have used the Skinomi on my previous phones and it covers the phone nicely. All the cutouts are aligned and it barely feels like there is anything on it. Btw, the carbon fiber look makes it look really mean and clean. oh another thing, it's lifetime warranty too.

The carbon fibre film must just be 3m di-noc carbon fibre, can be had much cheaper on Ebay and you can just custom cut it to any device.

But lately ive really liked the TPU gel case with stand, such as:

Everyone who doesn't need the case right away, wait til piel frama comes out with a imagnum type of case. This case is expensive but it protects your device against any earthquake you throw at it. I have one for my hd2 and getting one for the note cause my hd2 is still like new. You can put in your e-mail and they'll let you know when it's there to buy. Here's the link

If they release a case like this for the Note I think it might be worth a try. The kickstand could be useful.

is the power button cut out so we can use the IR blaster?
Look for pictures - in short yes the IR is fine.
It does not cover the whole phone. Back and sides. Top has a small notch for headphones trimmed out and bottom is open.
Most of these type of cases will always be that way. I think the POETIC case apparently had this issue.
How do you design a case and knowing all the specs and you forget about the IR ?

Nice case! I'm still hunting down the perfect case; meanwhile I've just ordered a cheap transparent case for about £3.
I'm tempted by the Nilkin, but the fact that it doesn't protect the top and bottom is a bit off-putting.
Something like the double-dip hard case would be great for me, but I'm just not keen on the colours they used.
I rather like the look of the Urban Armor Gear cases though. I just wish they had it in this colour.

The sides of the Nillkin are the smooth rubbery coating like you would find on the back of some of HTC's older phones (ie S710). The back is textured with a pattern, so it isn't the same feeling as the sides. I would say it's definitely less slippery than the phone naked.
So I've been looking for a TPU bumper for a while, and all I've seen are normal cases which have a back. I'm looking for one thats just a bumper and without a back. currently i have an aluminum bumper on my OPO but i dont like it much because of the sharp corners and slipperiness.
Anyone know of any tpu bumpers out there?
bumper!

I think there are no TPU bumpers available because they do not hold to the edge without slipping often. Just imagine you put a rubber band around the edge of the phone and taking it in and out of your pocket.

this is unfortunate. i think it is possible to make one though. the nexus 4 has a bumper and its completely round lol. plus rhinoshield had a model for it, they just never went through with making it.
I have been looking for one as well. I thought about getting that Orzly Fusion mentioned earlier in the thread and seeing if I could separate the back from it. I love the feel of my sandstone back, and don't want to cover it.
Looks like that might work. I think if you used a dremel cutting wheel and left a little of the clear lip around the back it might work really well.

I have one and you should be able to do that, however, it does seem like the back would be loose which means you might have to either cut the plastic from the outer edge which can be a hard job and leave some plastic left on the inside to cover the slack or fill in the slack with something else, either way it is achievable but you do risk losing £10

Looks nice, I might have to pick this one up too. It's not my ideal case, but at least it'll keep my phone protected until I can find a bumper.

Upstate: Received on Sunday from Amazon. I'm happy with this case. It does what I wanted, which was protect the front and rear glass areas from contacting surfaces when I put the device down. The raised rubberized black lines keep the phone up away from the clear cover. The holes in the clear cover for USB, mic, stereo jack (bottom), and whatever the tiny hole next to the camera is on the back all line up perfectly. I like the bumpers on the corners too. Hopefully I won't have reason to test them, but they look capable. :good:
Okay so now I'm pissed because my fave case manufacturer UAG came out with a new model for my phone just days after I settled on something less.

Yeah not a bumper case but since I replied to this thread I figured it was the best place to whine about it.

I also picked up this case. It is quite good, nice and slim with solid side grips. Having a clear back allows my Skinnova skin to show through which is cool. It fits tightly around the phone and feels quite sturdy. I'd definitely recommend this if you're looking for something close to a bumper case. I think this might be as close as we're going to get for this device.
i didnt receive my g5+ yet but i found this and i think it looks awesome.

Wow, you found one! This might be the very first bumper case for the Moto G5 Plus. I think I might order it and see how it looks.

Will do! I just ordered it yesterday, the total came out to around $20 USD. It looks like they 3D print the cases individually, so it won't be shipping out until Aug 31st.
I just got the bumper case from Shapeways today. First impressions - it's just ok, nothing spectacular. It feels like a $5 -10 bumper case, not a $20 one. The fit is a bit loose and not as sung as I would like. The grip is really solid though, and I like the texture. Overall I would say this bumper case isn't worth the money. But if you REALLY want a slim case, I would say go for it. I'm not sure if we'll ever get a different bumper case for this phone, so this might be your only option (at least right now).
