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.

Edit: I got a little hostile. I have bought nicer cases but id rather not cut them apart. I'm not looking for an otterbox but something to try out some color combos and get my cuts down.

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.

Mime glass and white UAG. Otterbox commuter back in the box. Best SP and case combination ever. And I have gone through dozens with iphone 3 3g 4 5 galaxy S2 Skyrocket and now Note 2.
This combination is light clear and if I want another color just duct tape the insert. Its like being a horse of another color in the emarald city ( haven't tried green yet, hmmmmm )

Genuine Samsung Note 2 case, it fits the phone perfect, it has rubber sides and hard back. Samsung did a great job on the case just like they did on the phone. ZERO issues as it is made FROM Samsung. This is the perfect case for me..I do not have the overhyped UAG case nor the fever that seems to be spreading.
P.S. notice how I say best case for me??? Yea...I have no idea why people say something is the best for a very subjective topic.

I'll update with a pic when I un-F my ROM's camera.

I've had roughly 50 cases since I resell them for fun. Of these, I've kept the following for myself:
2 UAG cases. 1 in black and 1 in white
2 Sweet Armor bumpers. 1 in Titanium Grey and 1 in Matte Black and Silver
1 Spigen Ultra Flip
1 Seidio Convert holster (only the holster, sold the case)
These are, IMHO, the very best available in each of their classes.

Went with the white Uag, preferred it over the silicone of the aegis

I've been switching between the Ballistic, Aegis, and UAG. It would be just the UAG if it didn't make the phone feel so wide.

Mind me asking what screen protector, if any, that you are using.
Every time I put on a different case, the edges are different enough that they cause problems.

Looking for thinnest case ?

What's the best thin case for the Note II ? I bought a couple cases at ATT store, they too thick.
I typically rock naked phones, because most cases seem to add too much bulk and thickness. I just like the feel of light thin phone.
Now if the Note II was as thin as the iPhone 5 then I wouldn't mind a Tough Case thick case. But its not, so...

I used to have one of those elago's on my Note 1. I wouldn't recommend these slim cases at all. While they look nice if you drop your phone and it catches the edge like I did with mine. You're going to end up with a cracked screen or chipped at the very least. This is what happened to my Note. Had the elago case I dropped it caught the edge of the table on the way down and it chipped the screen. With my Note 2 I've gone with a aluminium bumper case that protectors the edges and has a decent lip. If you can find a decent slim case with a lip and covers the edges of the front glass that would be better! Samsung phones are so fragile!!

Duzign Slim Cases

Hey guys. I just received two Duzign valor cases (blue and red). These are seriously amazing in terms of look and feel for thin cases. The valor serious had a soft matte finish. The look is similar to seido surface colors. My cases are cut out perfectly without any random sharp edges.
I have two elago cases (hard plastic smooth white and soft matte black) as well and the Duzign feel and look way better. The elago cases are way more slippery esp the matte black (it also has bad cutting with two random sharp edges at the top showing that it wasn't perfectly cut).
I also own uag navigator, cruzerlite tpu, mercury tpu, fosman kickstand hb tpu, and cimo tpu. I just ordered the Spigen wallet posted in the threads. I want to test these Duzign cases in it to see how they fit. I will be posting detailed reviews of all my cases soon, but thought I'd share my findings for anyone wanting beautiful thin cases that really are on par/better than the big names.

Then, you don't really need the outer plastic frame with kickstand to hold it together and can use inner TPU shell by itself? The reason why I"m asking, among other case I have a similar designed case but with soft silicon inner shell (first one in my post HERE) and it was a true garbage because soft silicon was pulling and I had to use outer plastic frame to hold it together from slipping of the phone. This Duzign case kinds of looks similar but sounds like a much better design!

I second that. I ordered at the same time that you did and just got mine here in CO. Black/black
It's so cold outside that when I got the case into the house I thought it needed to warm up because the inner TPU was hard. Little did I know, I've been dealing with soft style TPUs as mentioned.. This is truly a very nice case for $9.
Also, the exoskeleton shell fits on my cruzerlite circuit case! Win, win.
The Spen cutout, speaker, mics and usb ports are all perfect. Very happy customer (even though it took too long [by my standards] to arrive)

I saw it on ebay $6 shipped, local US seller. Very tempting. How is button response, too hard or soft? How about color of white inner case, how close is it to white of the phone?

Don't trust pics because of overexposed flash My cheapo ebay case with silicone inner shell had perfect color match. UAG Navigator (white) is a different shade of white, although not a problem because of black bumper thus white part of case doesn't come in contact with a phone.

Incipio Dualpro Shine for the Flex

This is the case that I recommend to anyone with the Lg G Flex. Its the Dualpro Shine by incipio. This case fits so perfect on the flex. The curve is perfect, the cutouts are very precise and the case as a whole feels solid. The dualpro offers 2 layers of protection with the soft touch silicon insert and then the hard outer shell looks amazing with the brushed aluminum look. Well here are the pics enjoy!
