Oh... well if the Ringke slim cases aren't for CDMA Galaxy Nexus... guess I made my choice lol

Yeah the Ringke slim case scratched the top of my GSM nexus as well. But in my opinion it looks better with the case on anyway.
I rather have my phone free from scratch even it wears a cheapo case, I ordered sgp Neo hybrid case, I think it look more sexy than ringke case and offer more protection as well. I saw many good thing about sgp, I'll find out soon. I disappointed on ringke case because it scratches the phone while put/remove it often.

I have the incipio feather case for my GSM Nexus and i love it. Fits well and the matte finish on it is great as well, adds some more grip to the phone.
Incipio FTW
I have been using the Incipio Feather case for a week now and love it. I got the gray one so it matches the GNex color perfectly.
Hi everybody.
This is my first day with my nexus 5 and I love it. I have a spigen slim armor case for it and like that to. The only thing is that the lip around the screen is very thin and I do not know if it would protect against a drop. I also have an iloome flex glass screen protector. Do any of you know if otter box or trident will make cases for the nexus 5. I am worried it will break with what I have on it now.
Thanks

Otter box says they don't have any plans on making a case for us. I-bason and ballistic , sedio all make some great cases. I also have the slim armor I feel safe enough with its lip. But on the other hand you do have a glass screen protector which will surly be closer to the lip.

I-Blason Armorbox is what I have. Being an electrician my phone takes some knocks every now and then. With this case on it feels indestructible

Don't have one, but if I have to use it, I would definitely give the Tech21 case a try (you may wanna read through page 3 for more pics)
Some drop test videos in YouTube are quite impressive.
Thank you for giving suggestions. Do you guys think I will be OK with an iloome .12 mm glass screen protector and the slim armor also do you know of and slim armor drop tests?
:happy:

I just retired my i-blason case. Unfortunately the corner rubbers started to pop off and yesterday I couldn't find one of the rubber corners. The phone doesn't fit tight and snug in the case. Now I'm rockin tech21 case. So far so good.

Where would I find the tech 21 case can you send me a link?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Its in this forum topic(Nexus 5 Accessories). I'm on mobile using tapatalk so I can't link it. They can be found in tmobile stores for 29.99 and in the tech21 thread (when you find it), some of the last pages, you will find a link with 30%? (I think) discount. Print it out and take it to the store and the case will be yours for $22 bucks

Cases
I have one For my N5..
Pretty and nice flexible....
I have the Ballistic SG Maxx and while it's pretty bulky, it gets the job done. It comes with a holster which is always a plus. I got it on amazon for $25.

Thanks. What do you guys think about the ballistic asparia now known as urbaniye vs the incipio dualpro? Which one would you choose.

Due to the fact of style I would go with the ballistic however I think both would offer the same protection

Hi. I was wondering if I should get the iblason armor box, ballistic aspira or the trident aegis for my nexus 5. Also do you guys think port flaps are good/necessary?
Thanks!!

I have the Ballistic SG Maxx too, I love it. It's a little bulky but feels solid. The only con for me is the hard screen protector, I love the idea, but it feels a little odd, and takes a little time to settle on the screen.
I think I might order the AEGIS. It looks promising but I wanna see some reviews first.

I would choose the Ballistic Tough Jacket MAXX (SG MAXX) for protection. I own this case and I am very satisfied with it. The only concern I have is that it attracts lint easily.
From reading reviews, I have learned that the Urbanite's coat of paint can peel off.
The Incipio Dualpro looks cheap and flimsy. The reviews are not good for it so I would not buy it.
i like the Trident N5 case I had a trident for my evo 3d many moons ago.. i always rocked otter box defender most of the time.. think ima go with the trident soon.. looks sweet
Hi,
New phone has just arrived, which case is the best for the phone?
Looking for case that is durable and will withstand the odd drop.
I had the case mate on my s2 which was brilliant. Screen remained scratch free (no screen protector) even falling face down.
Is the case mate case for the N5 as good?
Open to alternative suggestions.
Cheers,
H
I can vouch for the Reath Ringke Fusion case. Quite slim, doesn't affect use too much but enough to provide more than adequate protection. Got both colors, get the black one. The grey looks bad in person. The back is customisable.
It is strong enough to withstand drops. But not facedown on gravel because the lip is very small.
Also you can look on ebay for some nilkin sand texture cases. They are actually very good if you want a slim case. lots of grip.
How about a spigen case? The slim armor is really a recommendation.
I went with the OEM bumper case. Figured Google would know best, and I wanted my phone to be protected the moment I took it out of the box. I do feel like something such as an otterbox would provide more protection though.

I don't really like the Ringke Fusion, there are sharp edges on the case. Thats what made me switch away from the case. Other than that its a good case.
I recommend spigen screen protectors and cruzerlite case. Look in the cruzerlite thread for pics

I'm liking my cruzerlite case. I have the Ringke slim, official Google bumper, and I like the cruzerlite the best.

Hi guys!
I'm searching for a good pouch case and a tempered glass for the G3.
Any suggestions (from eBay/Amazon)?
Zagg for tempered glass

I've only had it installed for a week, but I'm very happy with my Tech Armor ballistic glass screen protector. Easy to install and nice coverage, and fingerprints wipe off easily.
Try esty for pouch.
Look at MediaDevil for a nice pouch

Spigen without a doubt. Love their cases.

Otterbox is my usual, but with this phone I'm getting Urban Armor.
Spigen cases are nice but they don't seem to be as well built as Incipio cases. The spigen tpu case for the Edge+ fits loose and is really flimsy while the Incipio tpu case is much more rigid and snug. Incipio gets my vote in terms of quality. I've also seen a few full coverage curved tempered glass screen protectors on ebay!

Using spigen slim armour and the fit is fantastic
Sent from my Gorgeous S6 Edge Plus
Well the slim armor case is a two part case. I was referring to the all tpu version. Not saying Spigen cases aren't good I just think Incipio cases are built a little better....
I want to get something that will show off the back color, but still provide protection. I did get the full body Invisible Shield.

I just want something that will protect it. Especially from dust and rain. I'm outdoors all day. I just Google that urban armor and it looks sweet. But I'm probably gonna get a spigen.
