[REVIEW] Nillkin Hard Case

Today I took receipt of 2 Nillkin Hard Cases for the GT-N7100 Galaxy Note (One brown, one Red.)
I bought them from eBay for around £6 each delivered, the quality is surprisingly good, I wasn't keen on having a TPU or Soft Silicone case, or the flip case that I had for my original Note. So I thought I'd give this one a try.
You can see that it comes well packaged, not just in an envelope as is usually the case from Chinese suppliers of such products.

It also includes a screen protector, I've not yet fitted that, as I already have one fitted that's in good condition.
As you can see from the next set of photos, it doesn't really add a great deal of bulk, which is another reason I didn't want a TPU or Silicon case.
Granted I can't see it protecting the phone from a massive fall, but I wanted to keep the svelte lines as much as I could, whilst adding some grip, which it does nicely with the texture that is on the under side.
The fit is really snug, I had reservations at first, but once it's fitted it doesn't move at all, so I have no worries about it slipping off.
All-in-all I think it's a really good product, it adds protection from scratches for most of the phone, whilst not being too bulky, just enough thickness to save the camera lens from getting scratched when you put the phone down.
So if you're looking for a case and have similar requirements to my own, consider giving this one a try.

thank you for your return

Excellent review and photos,its a shame the case doesn't cover the top and bottom of the phone .

i just made a thread about this, but yours is nicer so....
I didn't like the fit at ALL until I just removed the back cover from my note 2 completely.
I don't really care about NFC so I'm okay with this. I like having a bit more lip too.
I find a couple of the edges a bit sharp. meaning if I hold the phone in landscape, my index fingers get scraped a little bit by the case edges.
I might sand them down or something.
The texture on the case is quite nice - pretty subtle but noticable when you hold it.

I know what you mean, but at least it looks uniform all the way around, I had a couple of flip cases, one made by a company called Tenda, great case and had a similar hard back to it, that case did cover all the edges... except for one corner, it would have looked a bit daft if it didn't have the flip screen cover.
But because of the material, I think it would be a nightmare taking it off, if it did cover every edge, as because it's really stiff, you need some leverage when you do want to remove it.

It might just be the batch you've got perhaps, I've just been around both cases, both on and off, and there are no sharp edges, in your case, a small nail file or wet'n'dry should do the trick.
I think I know what you mean about the fit, I too was a bit cautious as it "almost" sits flush with the screen, but there is a bit of a lip and I've shaken the hell out it and it's going know where haha.

I received my black one yesterday. Yeah, it stinks that the top and bottom are exposed, otherwise it would be perfect.
If you're looking for the lightest, minimalist case, this is the one.
Honestly, you really can't go wrong with a product that says "SUPER COOL" on the packaging. :laugh:

Thanks. I am expecting the black one. I love the texture look. I am hoping it feels like it looks.
Be careful though. It looks like you already have some scratches.

There's a screen protector on my beast, they arrived 4 days before the phone haha

That's a really nice case you have there. I envy your adventurous nature in going for red, I'd be more conservative and go for grey or black!
Anyhow I was also looking at this similar case and thought it offers a little more protection around the top / bottom. Any opinions?

I'd be more inclined to go for the one you've found, for that added protection, I have ordered a aluminum bumper and a flip case which I'll probably post a review about, unless someone already has.
I might buy the one you've posted about too lol.

Yeah I'm on the case hunt too. Already bought the S-Line with kickstand just yesterday. I also really like the look of the one I linked to above. I'm interested in this flip cover too , which I really like for its corner protection - should be protective enough for most falls and no magnet involved to interfere with the s-pen.
And worst of all, I don't even own a Note 2 yet. Crazy or what?!
Anyhow apologies for hijacking your useful review thread

Which case is that then as there's a few mentioned above? I'll stay away from that one once I know as the phone is slippery enough as is (from trying out in store).

White ones look nice too, but its just hard to maintain the white from turning dull color. If you have time, please post some pics of your brown case

Samsung Galaxy Note II DualPro SHINE Case

Hi All,
I just got this case in the interim until I get the otterbox defender. I had it fedex overnight because I usually put my phone in my pocket. It reminds me of the otterbox commuter but not bulky and its in a silver Aluminum finish with a good feel and not a fingerprint magnet. Not slippery. Tactile buttons are responsive without any problems. Very well built dual protection case. Access ports are not covered.

Not to be nosy but by the time you're done buying cases, I think you would have spent enough to buy squaretrade insurance.

Yeah the problem was that the Otterbox Defender wasn't available but all these other cases were so I had to go thru looking for a case that would fit in my pocket. The cheap tpu cases didn't instill confidence when I put it in my pocket and the Speck Candy shell case was a little better but it's rubber gray material frays when you put it in your pants. It also was more rigid than the tpu cases but I still was worried about it not being rigid enough. This case however is different and the hard shell is really rigid. No worries about putting this in my pants. The hard material is very solid and a very nice feel. Oh well still waiting for the otterbox but this will do until it gets here. Otterbox using Fedex smartpost sucks! I'm praying it gets here and not lost in the usps christmas frazzle. lol.

This one actually looks very nice. Interesting..

Wow, looks nice and sleek.
I see a seller in ebay has it for about $24.95.
Let me know how you like it when the Otterbox comes since this looks much thinner and easier to pocket.

Nice!..the color blends well with the white note 2..any other colors?..found some pink/white on ebay..

Psy, could you snap some pics of this case on your phone? Its hard for me to see how it looks with the stock images on their site. Thanks.

Finally stumbled across this case after searching for three days or so for a case for my incoming Note 2.
I just ordered it off ebay and had to cancel my other case I had ordered from Amazon. I figure the extra $8 will be well spent, and I really like the aesthetics of it. No kickstand is a positive for me.

How the sides hold up to pressure, around the outside of the screen? I noticed theres no support from the hard shell to stop the silicone lip from being pushed back from the screen. Ordered one, will just have to see I guess

Because the outer shell is very rigid there is very little play to move the silicone lip. You have to force it hard to move. This is not a case for changing batteries. I'm actually scared to pull the phone out of the case. I had the otterbox commuter for my old Galaxy Note i717 and the material for the outer shell of that case is less rigid than this case. my 2 cents.

Thats too bad, I have to do battery pulls occasionally (especially now that the power button long press doesnt reboot) and I usually depend on dual layer being fairly easy to remove. Right now the Aegis case I have feels like its bad to remove and replace frequently - which is good I guess in general just cus its snug, but bad of you need to remove the battery once or twice a day

Thanks for posting pictures. Mine should be coming in soon. I gather from your asher past that you're suggesting that removing the phone from the case seems pretty difficult?

I'm taking my phone (Galaxy S III albeit) out of the same case on a daily basis (to put into an arm sleeve for a run) and it holds up just fine - pry off one top corner, then another and you have your phone out of it.

Just got this case in last night and it is a great case no doubt, beautiful, not bulky, and offering decent protection, but holy cow is it tight and both hard to put on and remove. It's a concern for me, as I need to change the SIM when traveling.
I'm really afraid to damage the case, it is the tightest fit of any case for any device I have ever owned.

Question
I am interested in buying this case but I don't like cases that stick to my pocket while pulling them out. Does this matte case have any problems?
I notice that there is a line/indentation around the back of the case - does this trap dirt/lint? I am wondering why they placed it there in the first place.
Thanks.

It goes in and out of my jeans pockets with no issues. If you wear skinny jeans, then I can't help you. It is remarkable to me how little dirt/lint stick to this thing. It is made of hard but flexible rubber, I haven't found anything sticking to it. Keep in mind, its a barely bigger than the phone and it does push up my screen protector in the lower left hand corner. My Spigen case didn't do that, but it made the phone feel huge to me.

Thanks!
Thanks for the info. What kind of screen protector do you have? I have purchased Invisible Defender (screen protector) and diztronic case. Hopefully they wont cause huge problems.
Thank you.

It's just a cheap clear one from Amazon. This case really hugs the screen, it adds almost no width at all. Its not really noticeable unless I look for it, I wouldn't think you'll have huge problems.

Spigen cases always seem to add unnecessary bulk, especially width to phones with their cases. And their colored plastic backs scratch and swirl like crazy.
They are extremely overrated and overpriced imo.

Got a link and pictures?

Can someone test something out on this case for me?
Are you able to stick 1 Credit Card and 1 photo ID on the inside of the back of the case? Will the case stay on and clip to the phone?
I am doing just that on my current phones case and would like to know what cases I can replicate this on.
Thanks in advance!

Does it seem like it could absorb a drop?

I'm using the black one for at&t and it has the correct mic hole openings and all. The op's pics didn't show the at&t version. Just an fyi.

Amazon just emailed me, my Verizon Diztronic Matte TPU case just shipped. Should be here by this Saturday or next Monday.

That lip on the back seems like a weird design choice... i have loved diztronic cases in the past, so I'm sure i'll order this.

Agreed.
Got one for my and the wifes phone....she prefers my Ballistic case (go figure) but the Diztronic is excellent and not bulky.
I might try the Incipio DualPro to see how it compares to the Ballistic.

For everyone wanting to get a screen protector that fits with this case, the Supershieldz screen protector from Amazon doesn't get in the way of the case if installed well (AT&T version).

Its the best. I posted a bunch of pics on Android Central. The black/black in my opinion. It has a very matte tacky feeling that repels finger prints. Very good protection with minimal footprint. Better than Otter box Commuter I had on GNex which I loved.
Edit: pics I posted are here, page 9 http://forums.androidcentral.com/verizon-lg-g2/316095-cases-verizon-g2-9.html

I bought the case and really like it. If I had to find something wrong with it I would say that the rubber can be a lint magnet but it feels good to hold.
I also bought the "iGadgitz Black Leather Pouch Case Cover for Samsung Galaxy Note 2 II N7100 Android Smartphone Tablet" to protect the screen. After using it for a few days it has loosened up enough to slide in and out with ease. Adds a bit of total protection for the phone.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A25T6XU/ref=oh_details_o04_s01_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I've had mine for a week, and apart from picking up any lint like a magnet, which is true for all cases with silicone I've seen, it's fantastic.

Thanks guys, ordered! Went with the white/gray, I'll get a pic up when it comes in!

I like it a lot.
But no case will defeat a face plant on a loose stone driveway, right?
Hold on tight!

I have owned the white/gray one for a little over a week. It is already starting to discolor at the corners and on the back. Pretty sad about that but still a great case. The two part design is great and it adds very little bulk to the phone. The Verizon version back is very slippery so i was happy to add a case that had a tacky feel to it.

I think that would be me, and it's only gotten worse. Too bad, because the white looked good at first.

Case with Verizon holster?
Does anybody know if this case will fit into a Verizon OEM holster? I know the feather did and felt appropriately snug, but didn't know if this would be too tight.

I got mine last Saturday. I picked up the white/gray one even though I heard it discolored easily, it really does pick up colors easily. If you don't clean it right away, it will be harder to clean later. I think I'm going to try and scotch guard it. My one beef is the headphone jack hole, Depending on the plug being plugged in, it sometimes doesn't seat all the way, or stay seated, I may try to open it up larger.

I have the black and the cyan version. Only problem with the cyan is when it gets dirty it will show. Just like with any colored case.

So, today is day 4 and the case has finally picked up some stains that aren't coming out. I should have had some scotch guard ready....

I had a Otterbox Commuter for my GNex also, which I hated how slippery the outer hard shell part was. Is this one similar or does it have a layer of "soft touch" paint for grip? I read in the second post that he thought it was tacky but wasn't sure if that was relating to the soft core or the shell... Thanks!
edit: received my dualpro and the shell does indeed have soft touch coating. It is still a little slippery, but nothing like the naked phone or my last Otterbox.

On amazon i ordered MPERIO case for d950 glow in the dark green and it glows! + 3 tech armor lifetime warrenty screen protecors i also ordered a iBolt xPro car mount universal galaxy s4/s3/note2/3 etc. that works with iphones and many more hopefully will work with the g flex so i caan use it as car dock the curve i think will prevent glare from the car dock using car home ultra app and google maps spotify etc.

has anyone found a glass screen protector yet for this phone? I dont know if one would work, given the bend to the screen..
thanks!

I never had one until I put it on my htc one max, and they just blow away the other kind...hopefully, someone will come up with one that "flexs"..:good::good:

Highly doubtful.

I just received my Eagle cell hybrid case all black and it is awesome! I got it for 5 bucks and it feels really good in the hand. It does add some bulk but honestly I don't mind and the phone feels really secure now. Highly recommend it especially at that price.

Two cases at the T-Mobile store. Body glove black and the Tech 21D30. Ask the rep for 30% off and they might give it to you. I liked both but takes away from the curve.

yeah, and even at 30% off, they are still way overpriced..
Amazon is cheap case heaven, IMO..

I like that I can retun or swap out a case at T-Mobile if need be. Wife's htc one case turned yellow they swapped it out for free. I do like the cheap cases on Amazon too.

Sorry is German Link

Question.... Can these cases fit all versions of the LG Flex? ...will a t-mobile or sprint case fit the G flex from At&t? I haven't seen too much differences as far as the design and shape of the phone on 3 US carriers.

here are some cases I received this week and my comments on them:
for some reason these links didn't carry over, but they are all on Amazon, so if you want to see them, just copy and paste the info into an Amazon search Box..
MPERO IMPACT X Series Kickstand Case for LG G Flex LS995 D950 D959 - Glow in the Dark Green
MPERO FLEX S Series Protective Case for LG G Flex LS995 D950 D959 - Magenta
CASE FORMERS Duo Armor BLACK for LG G Flex Combo Case with Stand
Incipio Dualpro Shine Case for LG G Flex - Retail Packaging - Silver/Black
Incipio is nice, but the inner rubber sleeve is a little loose, so there is some sag on the side when the out layer gets squeezed on; this happens to all the multi layer cases, since the curve in the center of the phone sort of gets "pinched" when the out layer gets pressed on.
The Mpero glow in the dark is great; sort of like an Otter box defender type protection, without all the port covers, and has the cool factor of glowing in the dark. the stand is great, and this will probably be the case I keep on when I go out and about, since I have been known to drop my phone, and this guys has super thick edges on it, so it will definitely survive a drop.Also, has a great kickstand, that actually holds the curved phone stable, both in vertical and horizontal states.
The Mpero Flex S will probably be my everyday case; very thin, sleek, a slight lip to protect the screen when face down, and adds no real bulk to the phone. Nice grip edges along the sides to help you hold it securely.
Probably my least favorite is the Case-formers; very bulky, inner rubber case gets really pinched in the center of the phone curve, but the worst thing is the small, flimsy stand, that doesn't securely support the phone in vertical or horizontal mode. Don't bother with this one..

Wished the mpero had a black case looks good but i dont like the clear cases.
