Hello. I wanted to ask what are your preffered cases for this device?
I'm currently looking for a waterproof/dustproof case, hopefully one with an integrated screen protector. But that's just me. What about you? What cases have you tried? What case do you have now? What are some of your favorites?
I'm a long time fan of Spigen. They make two cases for the Xperia 10 III, a black "rugged armor" case and a transparent "ultra hybrid" case. I have the transparent one, the buttons are very good and the cutouts for cables are very wide.
They also make a tempered glass screen protector, Spigen Glas.Tr but for some reason it seems availability varies by region. It's available on Amazon DE and in local shops in Eastern Europe (example) but not on Amazon UK or .com. I normally use the hinge method for applying the protector but the included applicator frame was pretty cool and it worked even faster.
My other usual choice for cases is Case-Mate, they also make high quality stuff, but unfortunately they don't support Sony phones.
So far I've only found one seemingly good rugged case; but no port covers and understandably, no screen protector.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B091YQY2PR/?psc=1 <- This seems to be a somewhat generic one, as I saw another brand selling the exact same case
I used to like rugged cases (polycarbonate+tpu/silicone gel), but I'm now using a very slim aramide fiber one I found on AliExpress, I really love it (and it is real fiber not molded plastic)
I like the original Sony case that came with my device.

However, I have no comparison to other cases and it's not waterproof/dustproof.

What are you looking for in a case? Obviously you like it to be white, but what else?

Good protection, easy to remove, looks good and that it will feel good in the hand while not adding bulk to the device I like it thin.
The first case looks like it would add a fair amount of protection, and it's also aesthetically pleasing. It looks like it may add a tiny bit of bulk though; although, it might make it a little more pleasing to hold.
The second case doesn't seem that it would offer a lot of protection, but the holster is definitely a plus, and the case is fairly slim.

If you like it thin, then cross that first option off the list. Duo layered "hybrid" cases aren't thin by design. The thinnest I know, is from Seidio, with very nice in-hand feel and good protection.
The other white case with the holster won't offer you top or bottom protection if you ever drop it. So cross that off as well.
If you want single layer solution, you should consider TPU, it's a popular choice for a reason (beside price). CruzerLite and Diztronic are good options. CruzerLite's Androidified cases are noticeable thinner than Diztronic's classy version, but both are recommended. I wouldn't recommend any white TPU though, since they love to suck up color that rubs against them.
What I'm currently using now is a bumper case. There's a few threads about it. My version did have the TPU separation problem, but once I've placed a few dabs of superglue on area, I've experienced only satisfaction with the case. Here's the eBay page for it. I bought one copy from a similar seller, and a couple more from an online website that have stopped offering them. Needless to say, price have risen up a bit since when I bought them last.

Thanks that's kinda what i want but for the VZW model
I bought a case which looks very similar to the first one off amazon which fit very loose. I tossed the case out the day I got it. The phone was literally falling out of the case.
A link to the one i bought. Dont get it.

I have the VZW GNex. The bumper fits just fine. The top rim doesn't completely fold over onto the screen, but unless you're super OCD, it's negligible. The overall feel of the phone + case won me over. You should at least try it. For only 3 bucks (when I bought it), it's a great case for me.
Hi All,
I just got my Moto G, and i am now looking at buying a case for it. I am not really favoured towards the official motorolla ones listed in Flipkart.
I am looking for something below Rs. 400. Also it should give me the matte finish intead of the plastic and should be covering all the edges.
I found few online below are the links. Not sure if they are worthy.
all your views will ba appreciated.

HEY, I bought the Amzer case for moto G. its great man. i have used amzer products earlier too..theyare super durable,fits perfectly & provide protection too

This one...it has matt back too
Thanks buddy. It is good. But i m chking if i can get any hard case one before ending up in buying amzer.
I am using the Amzer case too which I ordered from flipkart, I think its the perfect case and it has a nice finish too. (though I think I'll use a very fine sandpaper to make the sides of this cover matte instead of the slippery gloss it is.)
BUt seriously, Amzer is the one you should go for instead of some other cheap ones which cost Rs. 100-150 less than Amzer cover, it provides excellent drop protection and doesnt add as much bulk as you'd expect from a TPU case.

Amzer makes a couple different designs from what I can tell. The 'hybrid' one looks like it would provide drop protection through the two layers, but it's bulky IMO. The other one just appears to be a snap on hard case, not sure it would do much good if you dropped your phone, but would protect it from scratches at least.
Ive ordered a bumper case like this :

Yet to receive. I dont expect much protection but atleast for times when we keep the phone on table etc...this should be fine I guess.
Had bought a cheap flip cover earlier (not much choice was available back then in india for moto g). And the plastic back of the flip cover broke already...upon removing just twice!
Hey Everyone-
Hope you all have been enjoying the videos. I mentioned in a video i was considering doing a TPU case shootout and you guys let me know that would be appreciated so ... here you go!

Great review, I've seen reviews saying that the Boxwave Blackout cracks and chips after little use or removing it from the phone a couple of times, can anyone confirm this? That's the one I like the most. Thanks.

I have the nillkin case, not in your review but it has cut outs for the power and volume. Great fit even with tempered glass it still has a small gap. I couldn't say its a dime distance since I'm in the uk but even with the glass there is still a 1 mm gap. Cheap and seems OK so far.
Also have a diztronic on the way and an official OnePlus tpu. Who knows may do another mini review once they all arrive.

None of the cases included in this video are PC, they are all TPU. The nillkin case is PC. All PC cases have cutout buttons because PC doesn't flex its made for abrasion protection. I have reviewed a couple of PC cases on my channel if you want to check them out, the BoxWave minimus, the official 1+ cover, and the nillkin PC case video will be live soon.
A PC case will be much much more friendly towards screen protectors. TPU cases will be more likely to push against the sides of the glass and cause bubbles.
The Nillkin PC case is surprisingly high quality. Like, really high quality ::cough:: better than the official case ::cough::
I'm lookin forward to your review. No matter how many accessories I own I always always read and watch other reviews too. I think we have a sickness
What was your favorite case amongst all the ones you tried, regardless of material?

hmmmmm ..... man that's tough. I'll answer it without answering it. Here's my personal thought process behind this question.
1) I don't drop my phone very often. One broken phone in 10+ years and I'm comfortable replacing parts on my own phone if need be, so impact resistance isn't too important to me. This means TPU cases and combination PC/silicone/TPU type cases ( think otterbox) are more than what i need.
Plus if i did blow up a phone beyond repair, I've got more phones.
2) I prefer a slim design case. Since all i need is abrasion protection, I don't want to add too much fat to my phone.
3) I like texture. I don't want to add a case which is slippery because that defeats point #1 cause i might drop my phone
So right now I'm really liking the Nillkin snap on PC case. It's what's currently on my phone. Ask me again in a week and it might be a different case but my logic above remains the same.
Hope that helps.

Very useful information, thanks. Just wondering, have you also tried the Pelosi case? It's what I'm thinking of getting and it seems like it would really satisfy your requirements.
Has anyone tried the Orzly TPU? Is there a lip on the TPU case? if so, how thick is the lip?

Actually the unique design of the OPO doesn't push the case against the screen so you're safe, I do have a TPU case(as I has to my previous Desire HD phone ..no issues)
P.S. I do have tempered glass in the OPO which is way better but still in my DHD I has matte film which was nice(there still didn't have any issues with bubbles and do mind I'm a perfectionist..)
Thanks for the vid, very useful!
Dropped my OPO about 4 feet, and the screen cracked. I have the official OPO case that I ordered with my phone but it clearly didn't help any. Looking for a rugged case but all I can find is the Diablo Tough Rugged case. Can anyone recommend another? I am paying 120 for this screen so I'd like to actually protect it this time.
I'd get a tempered glass screen protector personally
Tudia Slim-Fit Cygen
I use the Tudia Slim-Fit Cygen case and it's proven to be a very solid case. I don't think there are any TRULY rugged cases out there for the OPO yet, but this is probably the closest one TO that.
Getting a tempered glass screen protector is a great idea. I purchased one a few months ago. OnePlus recently started actually having their official TP screen protector on their main site .. which is the way I'd undoubtedly go if I purchased one today. With that said .. I certainly wouldn't stop there. Tempered glass screen protector + the most protective case available (Cygen .. unless something new has been released that I haven't seen .. which I'd love to hear about) sounds like the best move.
what he said
Yes.. I bought a diztronic ultra and a tudia.. The diztronic didn't make the cut, the Tudia is better made and just looks a lot better. I also been looking for a good case for this phone, but the only thing that comes close is the jkase. But I feel good about the Tudia and a glass screen protector.
I'm still waiting for something to come along.

I have the same case, the Jkase diablo black version, I tried searching on different places but all I saw was this case, I don't know why, don't people like to protect their phones? the other ones looks like they are just a decoration and don't offer protection
Layer some Sugru on a non-slick case and you'll have a great rugged case.

Thats the part I dislike :/
Never had the chance to see a case like this, but I think that part will be bad quality plastic or easy to get dirty or fingerprints/ air inside. Need to watch a review before buying
Just a quick note to say that if you are after a decent alternative to the official Oneplus Bumper cases then the Spigen Liquid Air is a good choice. Great fit, works perfectly with the Oneplus TGSP and has a slightly higher rim around the screen than the Oneplus Nylon Bumper. Only £10 on amazon too. https://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07QZ5W5ZN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

In what way? Mine fits perfectly and isn't bulky at all for a bumper case.
Just ordered this phone for use in the US, and wanted this case because I have been using it on all my phones for 5 years. Just found out I can't get this case on Amazon here in the US, which makes sense I guess. I will have to pay double the price straight from Spigen unfortunately.
I've bought spigen liquid air and it have perfect fit and touch
Had one of these on my S9 from day 1. Excellent case, it's that nice TPU type that doesn't stick to your pocket and get covered in fluff like the cheap silicon ones do or mark your phone like the hard plastic ones can.
I was concerned the pattern on the inside would etch onto the glass over time, but it's been fine.
