Good value leather-effect case (UK)

Got one of these recently and it's really nice for the price. Fits well and seems well made. Magnetic clasp and cutouts for the cameras etc. Currently £13.95 at mobilefun.co.uk.

I nearly bought one of these myself Paul but instead went for the Samsung Executive Case....... and I'm not happy with it.
Like the case you kindly mention I don't like the leather surrounding the glass surface. Much prefer the case where you 'click' the Tab into place rather than slide it in.
Any idea's which would be a good case?

I've only used the one above and (for a short while) the official Samsung case. Not the executive one though. It was the sleeve variant. I really didn't like it. Very hard to get the device in and out of as it was so tight. I'm happy with the one I got, though may try a TPU style cover at some point.

Yes I have the same issue with the Samsung Executive case, it's a right pain inserting and taking out of the case.

That looks very like the red one I recently got

Good case, but it does have tendency to let the tab slip out of the top if held upside down (while taking out of a bag, for example)

Hi Jon (hey we're neighbours ). That does look very like mine, apart from the colour. I've not had the problem with it slipping, it's a snug fit. Unlike the official case, which was a strangulated fit .

I see we also share the same taste in where you purchased it too.
I obtained my Samsung Executive case from LondonMagicStore.
Excellent service from them, have purchased quite a few items in the past and have their Black Gel Case Cover Stand on order as well.

Hard case? Kinda

I just had to buy another HD2 last night(I dropped my original
It came with a pink hard rubbery case.
Where can I find one that is black? It can't be more then 3 Bucks.
I looked on eGay, but they all look the same. All of them say silicone and the ones that say hard rubber look different.
Just can't find the damn thing.
Here is a pic. I don't want another rubbery jelly POS like OEM one.

Here's some:
1) Hard Case PS. It's terrible - broke after one week. (but I kept putting it on and off to be able to fit it into my dock.)
2) Rubbery Hard Case Don't remember what the oem case was like.

It doesn't really look like either one of those.

Dont they do 'bumpers' for these?

I was not able to find a good black case for my HD2 as well, will try this one

Our Chineese friends have probably taken care of us! Look on eGay (as you called it very correctly). Some good chineese man might have the solution to your quest XD

I have black perforated hard case. Cheap off flEabay, nice to hold and did survive a 2 foot drop onto tiled floor.
Otherwise I have full aluminum case (can get black) for mountain bike but a bit ott for the office ;-)

I purchased this case for £6.95 form AMazon yesterday and it came today. I wanted a thin case that offers as much protection as it could, and I believe this is that case. THis case is listed as $35 on thier website, I just wanted to say I dont think that it is worth that much.
The case has a hard, plastic structure with a layer of Brushed Aluminum on the back. This gives it a cool touch and a very nice texture. All cutouts are very well aligned and I have had no issues with audio or pressing the volume or power buttons. The pogo pins are also exposed which is nice as this is the only case I know where they have allowed them to be open. Overall the case is very good very slim and offers quite a lot of protection.
THe negatives come in the way of the design though. The huge poetic logo on the back of the case (see images) may put some people off as well as the bottom and top silver plastic being exposed on the device. Also the case is not that grippy to hold. Meaning it is very slippy to hold and may fall out of your hand.
Great case at a great price.

Here's my video:

Great review man... does it provide any protection to the front? What I mean is if you put the nexus face down does the glass touch the surface at all?

Thanks for putting up the review. That has got to be one ugly case though. I want my branding to be mostly invisible. That one screams LOOK AT ME!!!!! :silly:

Just recently got my nexus and I've been looking for a new case. I just recently dropped my nexus on concrete and the top right corner the I guess bezel or the silver gray material came off. Am wonder ok by if this case would provide decent protection against such a fall

Jeans pocket / sleeve for G4

Here's a bit of a left-field suggestion among all the rubber backs and bumper cases: why not get a sleeve case instead?

I found this seller on etsy a while ago. They make pouches for any number of devices using jeans fabric on the outside and coloured cotton on the inside. What I like about them: they are very minimalist and low-key. Perfect for protecting your G4 while traveling or when you want to toss it into a bag but you're worried it might get pushed around or scratched by sharp objects such as your house keys.
In my opinion a perfect solution for those looking to protect the phone when it's not in use but who don't want to mess up the design by putting a rubber or bumper case around it. Of course, it won't help you if it slips out of your hand and hits the concrete while you're using it.. those are the trade-offs.
I have a similar pouch for my Nexus 7 (2nd gen) and it's been serving me well for almost 2 years now. Highly recommended.
I ordered one for my G4 yesterday (the phone arrived two days ago). I'll post an update once I receive the sleeve case.

It's pretty simple actually...
1) a sleeve doesn't protect against drops
2) you can't use your phone without taking it out of the sleeve.

I made similar points in my initial post —
It won't be of much use to you if you feel you need protection at all times.
I intend to keep it in the sleeve when not in use and while traveling. I'm going to see if that works for me as well as I hope it does — it's been a great combination with the Nexus 7.

Do you just hang this like a pouch over your shoulder? Could you please explain how this is used-- or take a picture of it being used?

See the pictures I posted above - it's like a jeans pocket that you slide the phone into. Mine has an extra pocket in the front that can carry a credit card or something similar. Just slide your phone in and it's protected from falls or during travel.
I prefer to use my phone 'naked' and I use instant messaging much more than actual phone calls, so this arrangement works very well for me. Hope this helps.

Review: Melkco Special Edition Kubalt Double layer case for the LG G4

Hello all,
I'm coming at you with another review of a case. This was sent to me from @adamsjordan75 - straight from Hong Kong. The case just arrived and I had the pleasure of opening up the package and installing the case right away. Please see this link for the promotional pictures first:
https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=835591319823762&id=147941101922124
The package is nicely done. First of all, it does not look cheap. Secondly, it comes with a free screen protector and a cloth cleaner. I'll be honest - I didn't expect it to come with a screen protector, especially since Spigen's screen protector costs something like $11 + shipping. Third, it was shipped in bubble wrapped envelope to protect its goods during shipment. Keep in mind that this case traveled far to get to me, and it arrived in pristine condition.
Please see below for some pictures - will upload attachments via my phone.

Here are some pictures of the packaging, right out of the box.

Here you can see the clear cut-outs for the microphones, IR blaster, charging port, speaker, flash/sensors, and USB. The front side of the phone is protected by a lip - probably 1mm or so, to prevent the screen from touching the surface (desk, table, ie). The back is TPU/silicone material, so it's grippy, yet soft. In the beginning of the install, I had some trouble getting the phone into place and thought that the fitment was off. However, I carried my phone on a short walk and the silicone eventually wiggled itself in place. You can see from the pictures with the phone installed that the fitment is perfect. The case is not too tight, unlike my Rearth Ringke case, which makes me NOT want to remove the backing to swap batteries because it feels like the phone/back will crack every time I take the case off.
This case was on carrymobile.com, but as I am unable to locate a link there, I will link you all to Amazon.

I plan to update my review in a few days, as I'd like to get some usage in before giving a review on that.

Looks like it might be a good one to grab. Looking forward to your update

I had the pleasure of using this for a few more days on my vacation. The case is fairly easy to clean, especially since I got it dirty repeatedly because of my attempts to take pictures of food while eating with my hands. The case comes off easily when you want it to, allowing you to access the sdcard or to swap the battery. I made use of this feature many many times in the past few days.
Definitely a thumbs up for this case.
