Has anyone bought an Amzer case from Amazon? Gel or TPU? Any good?
I know someone talked about it in the Vibrant forum. Might wanna check over there. I think the person did a mini review.
I ordered one but it won't ship until january.

I ordered a black silicone case as well as their screen protector to try out for the hell of it. They are out of stock so there will probably be a small wait till it arrives.
yeah ordered one of their screen protectors. i dont need a case if i have a ZAGG on the back
The cases aren't out yet. They are up for pre order. If you go to Amzer's website you will see that they don't ship until 1/5. That is how it has been since the phone came out cause that is when I checked for it so it is not out yet.
Yea I was going to order a couple gel cases and noticed all the products/most are for pre-order

no one has it yet, it isnt supposed to ship until the 6th or 7th last i checked. Unless you meant you wanted a pic of the nexus 1 one, in which case that would have nothing to do with this thread on the nexus s...
Just got mine and im really happy with it. Fits nice and snug too. Their screen protector on the other hand was a total fail. It never adhered to the screen properly and was in the trash within 10 minutes of delivery.

If you wouldn't mind, could you put up a couple pictures?
I was gonna wait for a different case, but i already dropped my phone on the pavement and gave the corner a nice little ding I settled for this case..
Amazon seems to be out of stock. However, one of the other sellers had the case in stock so I ordered through them on Amazon. Fast shipping, too - just got a e-mail the order has been shipped.
please mind your language...
The AMZER silicone cases look nice. I have disliked the Best Buy case since the day I bought it, but any case (well, almost any case) is better than no case. Anyway, Amazon registered the AMZER ones as in stock today, so I ordered one. Optimistically waiting.

I always buy things in batches on Amazon so I can use Super Saver shipping.
Just ordered a white one from Amazon. I got prime so free 2-day shipping. Gonna get it on Sunday, so I will post my opinion on it then.

I also have Prime (have since it was made available) so I just placed an order for two (one white and one black) and chose 3.99/item one day shipping and should be getting them tomorrow.
Side Note:
I highly recommend Amazon Prime to anyone who uses Amazon frequently. It's only 79.99/year and you can invite up to 4 household members (though I'm sure you can add a friend) to share the membership. The first time I realized how great it was, was when I ordered an industrial strength shredder as a christmas present and because of the bulk the shipping would have been outrageous, so instead I opted for the 3.99/item overnight shipping.
I've been reading all those BSE and Invisible Shields threads and when I was decided to order a body protection from BSE I remembered that for my old Nexus One I got a screen protector from StealthGuards as it was for free (I only had to pay the shipping) and the quality was similar (If not the same) as ZAGG's Invisible Shields. It took like 10 days to arrive to my home (Spain) and I had to pay less than $7, around 5,5€.
I just wanted to let the people around that they keep giving away the protector (full body) for free, they'll charge you a bit more if you want matte look but glossy one is OK with me.
Their website is http://stealthguards.com/
That was it, If it's not OK to talk about this in here please excuse me and delete my thread.
And excuse my english.

Ah well, as I said I used these on my Nexus One and the results were good
Not trying to flame but I had bad experiences with them.
I ordered 3 iPod Touch 4G screen protectors for my family to their home and ordered Nexus S protector to my dorm.
I received 2 Galaxy S screen protectors and my parents received 1 iPhone 4G protectors.
I e-mailed them and they simply ignored me for 3-4 days.
I decided to dispute.. I guess they didn't respond to PayPal so I got my money back within a week.
I've ordered from them twice and got my order no problem.
I have the NS skin on the back. Gives me the protection I want at 10% the cost of invisible shields and the like. I'm happy with my purchase
I use these on my Samsung Vibrant. I completely forgot about it, I'll head on over to there and get one for my NS4G. Thanks for reminding!
I had a stealth guard on my hero for a while. It just seemed to collect dirt in the corners and make the phone look bad. Finally got rid if it for a otterbox, which of course they won't make one for this phone.

I got this email from them just now:
I guess this is the same situation as the moko cases where the magnet was too strong?
This is the case I ordered in blue : http://www.amazon.com/i-Blason-Sleep-Google-Nexus-Tablet/dp/B008GHN0NS
Darn, and I had already paid 8 dollars for a screen protector already lol
Hi Dear Customer,
We received our shipment of i-BLASON Auto Sleep / Wake Google Nexus 7 Inch Tablet PC Slim folio Case with Built-in Stand Hard Back Cover today and after rigorous testing discovered that the magnetic sleep / wake function was oversensitive and unsuitable for our customers as it made the case unusable for any significant period of time.
We have returned the product to our supplier and are in the process of receiving a corrected shipment which will arrive on August 3 rd and we do apologize for this unexpected delay.
If you wish to cancel your order, we will gladly refund you.
If you wish to change to an in stock Nexus case we can transfer your order to our leather case as seen here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008GEC6DQ
If you wish to wait for this product we will include a two-pack of screen protectors (1 matte, 1 clear) when the order is shipped.
Again, our apologies for this delay and any inconvenience it causes.

The only difference is that many people paid $8 to $12 for this case from Moko and other dealers. Why is i-blason charging almost $20 for the same case?

I got the same e-mail too. Very frustrating, because I will be traveling out of the country next week for three weeks and really wanted a protective case before departing.. are there any other cases this thin that are currently shipping?

All the thin cases are shipping starting in August, but the thinnest ones I have seen are below to keep you 'covered' until you get a better built case in August.

Perfect, thank you. I will probably order the Poetic as a temporary - $7.95 shipped is hard to beat.

I paid more because I wanted the color. Hehehe. Black just seemed boring and plain to me, but the prices on the other cheaper alternatives was very enticing.
orange = august 10th now!?!?!

I have ordered the ORANGE one and got the same email a couple days ago ...... but now I am shocked!
http://www.amazon.com/i-Blason-Sleep-Google-Nexus-Tablet/dp/B008GHN0NS
the ORANGE version is In stock on August 10, 2012.
Anybody got any additional email from i-Blason about his BIG BS!!!???
I might switch to

Looks pretty good!
Nope, didn't get an email yet for the delay. I also ordered the orange one I have my mofi case and is a good bridge gap until this and/or my treegloo case comes in by the middle of next month.
In looking at other cases here is one from Poetic that I found. The other one looked good too but I saw this as well, but this one ships out on tomorrow 7/31/12

I ordered the blue one. I haven't received any other email other than the one I posted in OP. Although blue still shows august 3rd
i just ordered the black one as i didn't really care for any of the other colors. the case looks a lot slimmer than the other iblason case which i like but i wish this one had a vertical stand as well for when i'm reading ebooks. guess i'll try to read them in landscape now.
still waiting on mine. ordered the blue. it shipped but i have no idea when it will get here.
smh... i will never order from this vendor ever again. slow... slow... SLOWWWWWWW
Just got mine in today. It seems to be pretty well made and the smart cover works perfectly. No problems with folding back the cover turning the screen off or anything. And the case is rather small. I like it all in all even if there was a delay. At least the company was up front about the issues and didn't just send out a faulty product.
I had the Zagg HD on my phone for the last 4 days and at first I was quite happy with it. The fit was outstanding...it went right to the edge and had no peeling. The feel was slightly tacky, but it was clear and offered protection so I was happy. Over the last day or so I started noticing lines or imprints in the protector from the s pen. I'm highly impatient and I had the xtremeguard sitting on standby, so off with the zagg and on with the $3 xtremeguard.
I used the hot shower/spray bottle install method and the xtremeguard went on perfectly (as did the zagg)...no bubbles, no dust whatsoever. The fit is every bit as good as the Zagg...screen coverage could not be any better. The xtremeguard is smoother than the zagg, but still a little tacky. I expect that will get better over the next couple days as did the zagg. I have had the xtremeguard on the back if my phone for a week and tested the s pen on that to see if it left any marks like it did on the zagg, and it did not...that's why I went ahead and chose to put it on the screen too. It does not have a cutout for the sensors at the top of the phone, but it doesn't appear to effect anything, so that's better as far as I'm concerned. Screen clarity is every bit if not a little better with the xg over the zagg.
Overall, I would say if you are patient then save $23 and get the front AND back from xg for $3.99 including shipping instead of just front from zagg for $25 from best buy. Great product, great price! I just ordered another set for backup just in case.

The Zagg, both regular, and HD, both show where the S-Pen has been used. I would honestly rate it at Complete Garbage for use with the Note 2. Most, if not all, wet application screen protectors fit this description.
SGP Ultra Crystal = complete opposite.
My recommendation is always: a case (even the thin ones, especially if you're considering these skins, you aren't looking for drop protection) + a screen protector. Those cheap ones from eBay are VERY good! I get 6 of them for a dollar shipped, (maybe a little more?), and if they EVER get scratched I change it out for another, and if I install it incorrectly, toss it away and whip out a new one! They're uber smooth and cheap cheap cheap! I HATE wet installations on my phone. 700 dollar phone + water + soap? No thanks! Regardless of how much you use. I've used Zagg a million times way before when it was Invisible Shield and it was always the same problems:
peeling off after a few days on the sides (the part that I really needed protecting because that's the part that scrapes against my jeans coming in and going out), with the Note 1 I had it also and it almost broke the tip of my spen ... sucks.
I love cases, because I feel like I'm dressing up my phone. And I love the screen, give it some good protection with 99 cent 6 packs of screen protectors! No fuss. No issues. No reason not to use them .
Xtreme guard doesn't protect the chrome bit does it. Still good price though. Thanks, definitely give it a go.
Where did you find it from? Only see on eBay. Thanks!

No it does not protect the plastic. And yes, eBay is the best place to purchase. Still holding up very well after day one...very impressed for the price.

I had xtremguard on my Ipad for over a year now, still looks good. That's why I decided to go with them again for my Note 2. I just installed it on my Note 2 today. Fitment looks good. I don't know about marks from the S pen. I bought them on Ebay for $4 then got another set during Cyber Monday for $2.
Damn! How hard are you guys pushing when you use the pen? I have had the HD screen protector on my phone for the past week, and have no lines whatsoever.

Xtremeguard is better quality than zagg hd. I got 2 screen protectors and full body protector from xtremeguard for $3.50. I would have paid $25+ for a zagg hd screen protector only. Not to mention that zagg products turn yellow after days of use. This happened and it was very noticeable on my white Galaxy S3.

Yea, I ended up taking my Zagg back to Best Buy today and getting my money back. It wasn't easy, but after talking with the store manager, they decided it was the right thing to do.

I think it's important to have good customer services. A happy client is a revolver. Especially nowadays when you can buy the products from almost anywhere, offering something that differentiates your company from others is key to get revolvers. Amazon Spain is fantastic. I buy almost everything I can from them because they have excellent customer service and return policies. Not to mention it's sometimes cheaper than anywhere else online!

Any recommendations?
Do they make those glass screen protectors for the Nexus 7 ?
Thanks in advance.
I have an xtremeguard protector on mine, wet application means tight, perfect fit and it's stayed on for 6+monthd no problem. Look for coupon codes, I've always been able to find one when I looked, I think I paid $2 to get mine - shipped!

Xtreme Gaurd Coupon Code
Xtremegaurd launched a coupon code '85off' for 85 percent off store wide. Not sure when they expired. Picked up two for my sister the other day. I got it from $20 down to $3!
why do you need one? I've been using mine without one for a year now and there's absolutely no scratches on the screen, not even micro ones like you get on the N4.
Anyway, I've always found the wet-apply ones to be the best protection (used them on my Hero, Sensation, ZVM etc) - http://www.bestskinsever.com/tablets/google/google-nexus-7-tablet-skin-2012-model - as good as Zagg ones, and much cheaper.
