Does anyone have a review of this case
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Free mobile app
Siedio sent me one to review.
Overall its pretty good but adds a little bulk to the device. The metal kickstand is solid and uses a magnet to keep in place. I have the red which has a slight metallic look to it. Not as slippery as bare metal but still a little.
Found no real issue with it. I have a MIME feather and it slipped on well over its edges. The holster is a holster, nothing too special. I think it would give moderate protection from small drops, although I never test drops, not brave enough.
Overall solid case.
Edit: Although its stated on their sit I thought I'd add the IR blaster doesn't work with case on. I will only be using it in the woods do not that concerned. Lastly, testing an XtremeGuardz full body (just the back) and it had no affect on how the case fit.
Thanks

I've read through a few of the reviews but wondering how does the bumper hurt/help with grippiness. I've notice that the phone starts to feel very slippery once my hands start sweating but I love the look of the bumper.
Decisions, decisions
EDIT: And if anyone has one, have u used the bumper if a dock? Any issues?

Loving this one too. If my final decision is the note 2 this will be mine.

They have it at T-Mobile stores. Bought it and returned it a week later. The elastic strap that holds the front closed stretched out really quick and after that the front cover didn't align correctly causing it to look pretty crappy.

Looks like cheap material but really like the idea, this is what the smart case should have been (like in that MOD thread where they take the flip cover and add a TPU to it); esp like the stand feature
Stupid case, bad execution.

terrible case - the cover is connected with a floppy piece of elastic fabric, the elastic band to hold the cover is stiff and overall it feels like it triples the thickness of the phone rather than doublet it... pass..
purchased this at t-mobile, returned it. The strap was the deal breaker for me.
Cant you just cut the strap off?

This case is only good for protection from scratches. While using this case I dropped my Note 2 from 2 feet onto pavement and the screen cracked. The case is great if you want something very slim but I wouldn't trust it for drop protection. The casemate tough case is also very slim but provides 10 times more protection.

I only use this case for after work during work i use a otterbox commuter

Yep, read another post with someone dropping their phone using this case and it shattered the screen. It's slim and protects from scratches, but next to nothing drop protection.
+1 for Case-Mate Tough as one of the slimmest cases with a drop protection on par with other cases twice of it's thickness.
awesome!
I just like this case cause phone still looks sexy with it and im pretty carefull with my phones but i do construction work so otterbox comnuter goes on at work

I like my cruzerlite case, this doesnt look all that great.
Lol but everytime i see Verizon customers with note 2 it makes me giggle, cuz of that home button advertisement.

I have the aluminum button from spigen over the home button for that very reason.
Back to this case to be honest I didn't even think it looked all that great. The back is an absolute grease and finger print magnet.
After getting my phone replaced I tried out the seidio surface case (which I liked, good kickstand) before finally settling on the casemate tough case. It seems to be the perfect marriage of slimness and protection. Although I'm probably going to order the seidio convert case add on for the surface case I already own for those trips where I might want additional protection.

It comes in 3 colors for 10 bucks. Actually the black and silver look very nice, much better than stock and I actually prefer the tactile feel. It has a very nice metallic spiral design. I was concerned about the button moving around but after 3 weeks so far the adhesive is very good. I'd recommend it especially if you have a Verizon note 2.

looks good
I had a slim case on my N2 once, a Nilkin one but pretty much the same design as this one.
Then I dropped my phone whilst getting out the car, and now I have a dirty great big crack across the bottom of my screen. No insurance...
Now I have my phone in an Otterbox, with a film screen protector to hopefully stop the crack getting worse. I has a very big sad.
Do yourself a favour, avoid slim cases as they're worse than useless. They give a false sense of security that WILL be shattered, along with your screen, when you drop it. If you're going for a case, get something that PROTECTS!
That's exactly what I just wrote in another thread for Case-Mate Tough. If you want a super slim case, great grip, and durable corner protection to give you a piece of mind - there is no better choice but Tough case.
Either the full body matte or carbon finish? I'd like to see how it looks if anyone's got pics and if they're satisfied with it.

One thing ppl say that they don't like about GA is that the side coverings leave a lot of gaps and they don't look good, but seeing as our phone really has no sides, I'm wondering if they even have those pieces in the full body set, if its just a front and back piece that basically connects at the sides
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk
I have the clear on on my RAZR Maxx. The sides have to be replaced every 3 months. The screen protector has to be replaced ever 4-6 months.

I had ghost armor on my Samsung Galaxy s3 and I only had to replace it once due to me getting a replacement s3. It stayed in great shape but mostly because I used the armor with a urban armor gear case on top of it. Screen protection is really good on it and you can't even tell it's on there

I second this.
I don't the the full body portion is all that great, in terms of durability, but the screen protector is really good. My first choice in screen protection.
I put it on my old Galaxy Nexus and peeled it off after a week. Can't stand the "orange peel" feeling to it.
I also have it on my s3, its a little dingy looking now but it does work really well

I use to work there (don't anymore, so no bias) but while their skins are a bit expensive, they're very high quality and the life time warranty makes it worth it where you can go to any ghost armor cart or online and get your old skin replaced.

I put ghost armor on all my devices. I ask them not to put it so close to the edge that a case pulls it up. On the g2 the guy wasn't sure he could since it pretty much doesn't have a bezel. Turned out great. On my girl friends G pro, it isn't even looks like crap. But her keys or change in pocket are scratching her screen

I had It on my DROID DNA. It, the carbon, was quite slick.
I've converted to exoskin and they're great. They don't make a screen protector though.

Nillikin make very slim cases. Have used on a number of devices. Got mine today for the g2. Gives it some grip without adding bulk.

It doesn't look like it protects the top or the bottom of the phone at all.
Well that color certainly stand out lol.
It doesn't cover top and bottom which I find more comfortable.
I got the white one for a white device.
