Metal bumper case for ZR - Sony Xperia ZR

Hey!
Has anyone experience with metal cases? I've found this one: http://www.dayjoybuy.com/aluminum-p...ctor-for-sony-xperia-zr-m36h-c5502-p-937.html
I think this could be a good protection for the screen especially when the phone falls exactly on the edge/breadline...
What do you think? Pls give me some input about such cases!
Thx folks!

Seems strong, however looks heavy & also big n size

Do you use a case on your OB?

Do you use a case on your OB?
On the one hand OB is very slim, what makes it feel good in the hands and look very nice, on the other hand if it falls on the ground it may break.
And do you use a screen protector? some people claim that it's unnecessary, but is OB screen really made of gorilla glass?
Never used a case and I dropped my phone many many times, still working great and it is not damaged

I have a silicon/latex cover and NEVER use it, makes it bulky and very hot, i just saw a metal back cover though i may get that one
I have a tpu case and actually I didn't like it, the phone with a case feels weird and uncomfortable to press the buttons.
I just bought a new battery cover to give it a new look.

KLD Charming Case (Magnetic?)

He guys, I found another leather flip case that seems really nice. I like the colors but wish there was a blue similar to the Asus Nexus 7 cases.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/KLD-Ultra-S...702452?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2c690824f4
The one thing that concerns me is that it is magnetic. Is that safe? I found a video of the case(s) on youtube.

I really wanted one of those as well but being magnetic is a no go.

Besides being magnetic, they seem to be the all around best flip cover I've found (besides the Official Samsung Flip Cover that haven't looked at.) Nice colors, good design, appears to be good quality....... Guess we'll have to wait for something else.
I received this case the other day and the quality and feel is excellent. It is a beautiful case. I'm going to give it and try on my Note when I receive it. I like it better than the official Samsung flip cover.
Any feed back on the magnetic case being safe. I am getting my note 11\1 amenities want to order the case ahead of time. So far I am liking this case.

Safe? Well, it's not going to damage anything much, but it WILL screw with the S-Pen, and render the compass completely useless.
Ive got the case and been using it the last few days with no ill effects what so ever!!!
The magnet is next to the front camera and doesnt screw with the S pen at all. ln regards to the compass I cant comment as l dont use it (l dont think)!!!
All in all a really nice solid case - no complaints so far.
ps - went for the black and beige one - looks smart!

The case is safe. Smart covers for tablets (N7, Ipad) contain magnets. That is how they automatically wake up when you open them.
I bought this aswell hopefully there are no side effects. I plan on installing a landyard in it aswell. The note wont fit in all my jeans pockets ; p

I see now. It looks like butt. At least the colors do.
Ok I just bought it as well the black one as it looks beautifull and it has a kickstand feature what more do you want from a case all for a super price delivered what are you waiting for guys?
I have this case in black and I absolutely LOVE it.
It looks amazing, isn't bulky and the materials are top-notch. The phone doesn't move a millimeter. I haven't used the pocket yet, but I think it's a handy feature.
The magnet is a plus for me. It hasn't caused any problems.
I didn't want the official case, because it's made of the same chintzy plastic as the stock back - which I don't like at all.
FYI I have a brand new one of these cases available for $15.00 shipped. I'm located in the US so shipping will be a lot quicker than China. Please see the thread below for details

I'm looking at this case too and have a couple questions.
Does NFC still work?
What is it like to text and make phone calls on it?
Do you think it would still fit in a car mount with the back cover flipped around?
How easy is it to take in and out of the case?
I will NEVER use a magnetic case on my devices.
Very expensive device + magnet = prone to damage.

You ever use the OG Droid? Both the car dock and desk dock used magnets. Magnets are fine with these devices
I doubt a low strength magnet would have any negative effect on the device.
I ordered a wallet case with a magnetic clasp and initially I was worried about dead spots on the screen. Having received the case and seeing how laughably weak they are (just enough to hold the front panel shut, absolutely no more) I'm not sweating it at all.
I'm eagerly waiting for the FedEx guy now, but I'll report back and tell of any issues.

[Q] Anyone know where can i buy Xperia V Lt25i back cover?

Do Anyone know where i can get this other than ebay? An original one,that is also with the waterproof rubber seal..Im kind of worried that those in ebay,that those back cover are just a fake knock off with a fake rubber seal (not tight or even surface or something) which makes it looks like Real.. Any idea? Wanted an original one or maybe China one with a decent quality that cover the battery compartment in the phone.. Thanks in advance ~

Alternative BackPlate

Hey, I recently brought a Xperia SP and it's currently in the post. I have watched reviews etc and they all say the phone is great apart from the cheap back cover.
I was wondering if this is really that bad and if anyone has found a better back cover for the device?
Don't think it makes any difference as you don't need to take back cover off.

[Q] Soft touch battery cover?

I'm fed up with this slimy plasticky battery door that come with note2.
I'm looking for a soft touch matte finish battery door. Perhaps something similar to Nexus 7 2013 or Nexus 5.
At first I was interested in leather one (as there is a thread for that). Looks like a Note 3 and have better grip. But the again I just dont like the leather look. I prefer a simple soft touch finish that wont left many fingerprints.
Does anyone know this?
I've been searching around but no luck or probably just my pretty bad luck..

My friend, did you read my post?
I don't like the leather look. and, yes, I already checked that thread over and over again. If I really want a leather case, I won't create a new thread like this...
What I'm looking for is the soft touch, not leather.

I just posted on a similar thread here about the Ringke Slim. Might be just what you're looking for (and no I don't work for them ha ha!)
Edit. Sorry this is a case and not a battery door. However it is very slim if that's your reason for looking.

How about Carbon Backcover like this? Not as plasticky as the original. However, it's not too soft I guess, just enough for comfortable gripping and exclusive feeling instead of plasticky thing.
I found this not my taste but sort of what your looking for
