Hard Plastic or Silicone Cases? - Nexus 10 Accessories

Most of the cases I see available for the Nexus 10 are some kind of leather, which isn't really my style
I would be interested in a hard-book like case, similar to the case that Google was going to offer, but I guess scrapped for re-design. A silicone case might also be nice too.
Something like a silicone bumper (like the Nexus 4 has) would also be very interesting imo
Perhaps we can use this thread to share links for such cases

Amazon has silicone cases here...

I used one like this when I had the Galaxy tab 10.1. I liked it a lot it provided a lot of cushion and it felt pretty nice and the tablet was very secure fitting.

I had this same silicone case but with the Galaxy tab 10.1 and the silicone covers the majority of the bezel. I'm assuming it is the same for the N10 model.

I really want a tpu case for this or some other minimal case. Leather types are fine but a tpu or seidio type would be more ideal for me. Only problem with this device is that it has those speaker grills in the way... Which creates a small problem with silicone and tpu

Maybe they look like grills. Tiny holes instead of cut out strip for the speakers. It would still retain the stability of it I think.

All i see from them are TPU cases... i prefer silicone. This silicone case was perfect for the tf101.... sold it to get the nexus 7. Front cover a little more of the glass so less wiggle of the case... nice and thick but not bulky. cut out were BIG cutouts so no matter what connector or adapter was used... it was sure to fit with the case not being in the way
There are a bunch of silicone cases here. Hope this helps!

(Q) Galaxy note 2 rubberised back?

Loving my note 2 but I find it slippery to hold and a pain to prop up against things as it just slides away from anything you lean it up against. I know there are big rubber cases available but I was wondering if anyone has come across a rubberised replacement back to give me the added grip without the extra bulk of a case.
Any ideas to improve this lack of grip without adding a bulky case?

It's barely thicker. Maybe half a mm.

Ive had a look a the nilkin case looks ok but I think its a harder rubber almost plastic. Im after a grippy soft rubber what would be perfect is a back cover which has the same feel as the battery cover on a sky tv remote. The skinomi looks interesting

You could also try eGrips.com and then you don't need a new back cover or case.

You are correct, it's pretty plasticy. It's a single layer - pretty simple case, no frills.
And yes, I lose NFC. If I ever come into a situation where I ever could use it, then I might start to care. So far, I don't.

Chunology that case seems ok but its made from hard plastic so wont have the grip im after. Yes I think texturising the back with some sort of self adhesive non slip material is the way to go... gadget grips or similar its just a shame they dont make one that fits the back of the phone perfectly like a screen cover does.
Maybe a gap in the tech market!

I ordered some regular black plastidip, should arrive on monday, I'll let you know how it works.
Plastidip is overpriced in the UK for some reason though. It's about $6 a can in the US and about £16 a can in the UK :/
The Zagg/Best Skins ever, body guards clear protective skins have a rubbery feel and offers improved grip over the shiny plastic.
this case is idential to nikkin without the logo.

Yeah let me know how the plastidip works. Im interested to know if it peels off easily. Ive now bought a hybrid case very similar to the one posted above in that ebay link. Im fairly happy with it mines white hard plastic slim not bulky and it has a rubberised coating on it plus mine was only £3.90 on ebay . I found the rubber coating felt slippery when it was new but ive had it a week now and the grip seems to be improving.

Half decent cheap tpu cases?

I'm looking to buy two or three cheap tpu cases to mod to go with my flip covers. I want just cheap ones for now to see if I like them or not. Does anyone have a link to ones they like? Ive checked ebay but its always a gamble. If this is in the wrong section I apologize. Thank you in advance.

I'm a new user, so i can't post any external links yet.
Dx.com has a bunch of cheap bumper cases for around $3 in multiple colors that match the flip case colors. I would check them out.
does anybody know where can i find an all clear tpu casing? been searching online for one, but to no avail
LOL we need to know your definition of cheap, but as adrenalinemotion said, go with diztronic. It's not expensive, I'd say not very cheap either, but it is close to being cheap. The quality is top notch I promise. I never go with TPU case as their nature of loose edges allowing dusts and the like get inside between the case and the phone, but with diztronic I'm loving it. For color-wise, they only have clear, black and glitter white/clear but I think they will have more coming soon.
I got myself the Mercury jelly case. I think it's fairly decent for its price. Personally it's just something to tide me over until I get a better case (probably the UAG one).

The "sparkly" design (shiny little dots all over the case) makes it look classier than your average plain TPU case. Overall I'm very satisfied with the material , cut-outs and I think the phone fits snugly into it (perfect fit imo). My only gripes are
1. the exposed top right corner (I know its for the antennas for the Korean models but still...)
2. the volume rocker cut-out (I can press it without any problems but it just doesn't feel nice to me.)
3. Edges are raised too little to offer much protection to the screen.

Id rather go for the Samsung case than that Diztronic case. Thats too expensive to be considered cheap. With 50 off the Samsung case comes out to 15.

I really like the first one because it also comes with a stand and it fits nicely. The second one I use when I go to the theme parks (I don't carry any bags if I don't have to... makes it faster to go through security). The third one I haven't tried yet, still on the truck from CA.

Neither of the two Seidio cases are anywhere near as thick as this case, but, they are also nowhere near as protective. I own the Seidio Active, as well as this case. I'm a bit of a case freak. This is a VERY bulky, but also VERY protective case.

Thanks for pics,its standard plastic case as @cickova says,I bought something similiar and its weird feeling holding in hands,I had it on 4X and I dont recommend it,its not good feeling in my hands as TPU case.
And what I meant by thin case its this and I dont think there is for our LG something like this...
I have it and i don't like it. I know that if I was to drop my phone with that thing on it would not do anything to protect it and easily break the screen by the looks of it.
If you are not interested in an useless cosmetic case then I'd recommend you this one.

4X case
I bought a Nilkin plastic case and screen protector for my 4X, found it on ebay at a good price.
Ulitmately it is down to personal choice but I wouldn't feel secure without a case of some description and a screen protector; even the most basic and flimsy models are better than none at all....:good:
