Generic eBay Silicon/Gel/TPU cases have finally arrived!

http://cgi.ebay.ca/SILICONE-SKIN-SO...020226?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item45f7e98702
i ordered one already
it comes in many other colours
they are also selling lots of batteries and wall charges
it was about time.

Hooray for horrible cases!

Thanks, Picked up 2 just to hold over till the good cases come out. This thing is a scratch magnet.

yeah, and drops
it is way too slippery
i dropped my SNS more than 20+ times already

I have a generic TPU case for my Vibrant. It was great. However these generic ones from ebay for Nexus S don't look so good. I ordered an Amzer one from Amazon...

please let us know if its worth it

is this one this: http://cgi.ebay.com/SILICONE-SKIN-SOFT-CASE-COVER-SAMSUNG-NEXUS-S-I9020-BLK-/170587299235?pt=AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item27b7cb9da3#ht_4267wt_827
how different are these going to be than the AMZER cases on Amazon? I mean, its $2, I should probably just go for it.

Gelaskins now available for Nexus S
Hey...
Just wanted to let everyone know that gelaskins has come out for the Nexus S.
Sorry i can't post a link. Just google Nexus S Gelaskins.

Ya, I saw those too but the product pictures show that a good part of the back isn't covered :-/

I just noticed that as well. I have been wanting to buy gelaskins for a while but they always seem to not cover all of the phone, same issue on their Evo skins

Amzer gel skin from amazon
good case compared to the purple and pink ones found in the mall kiosks but low quality silicone and be careful with any overclocking its a great insulator

Amazing cheap case
I had this case for about 2 days and i find it amazing. It has a mat finish in the back and tight fit all around, doesn't look like there is a case on the phone. The case also makes the phone less slippery in the hand. Best part its $4.
Link to ebay

For me, the shipping is 8x the cost of the case. Wow.

Another Case Option: Caseable

About as costly as TreeGloo and Portenzo, a bit more customizable, WIRED12 gets you 20% off at checkout.
So check it.

Quite expensive.. Can you post review once you got and used it?
Thanks

Agreed and definitely.

Infinitely more customizable, but the securing mechanism seems a little more intrusive on the device's front than the portenzo and treegloo cases.
I may end up with one of these as well as the portenzo depending on reviews. Any idea if it has a sleep/wake magnet built in?

No, and that's definitely a huge known risk I took. It doesn't mention it anywhere on their site, and I did little to no other homework aside prior to ordering (I figured I'd just give another case option a shot and report).
Thankfully, I also ordered the Blurex case, so I figure if this is terrible I've got something - and if this is great, but doesn't have the sleep/wake magnet built in, I have somewhere to do a little precision surgery and harvest one. :laugh:
Also, mine was $40 (USD) when all was said and done, including shipping, after using the promo code.

This is nice looking. There is a coupon code now for 10 dollars off (summer2012). Any idea how long it takes to get it after ordering?

From my best estimation based on the handful of reviews I've read, and their shipping policy, about 12 days.
Once i have it and have a chance to review it, I'll include everything in terms of options chosen, final price, and time from order to arrival.
I'll also post comparison shots with the Blurex, and if anyone wants to see it from a certain profile, feel free to ask and I'm happy to accommodate.

I bought one already. I really don't want to wait almost two weeks though : (

Shipped today (6 days after order, with a weekend in the middle).
Hoping it will arrive this week.

Post pics of your Nexus7

There's a thread like this in the GNex forums and I love the concept.
Snap a pic of your Nexus 7 and post it here. Its a great way to show off any cases, covers and customizations you've made. I'll go first:
Official Asus case in light grey.

I got mine through a package deal on eBay during the holidays. 32GB N7 w/ official Asus case and screen protector. I think they sold the cases on the Play store, but now they're available all over online.
Sent from my Nexus 7

Since I am sure everybody knows what the front of the Nexus 7 looks like I wont post one but I will say that I do have a screen protector on it.
However on the back of it I have this skin on it:
And when I take it out of the house I just keep it in this sleeve. I am not a fan of cases personally as they add to much bulk for my liking. Excuse the poor quality of these pics, I took them with my Galaxy Nexus.

Case - Noreve custom
Stylus - Kuel H10

my portenzo for when I'm at school...
otherwise, it's naked in a sleeve...
[via Nexus7]

My Nexus 7 sitting in a fully handmade, zero-cost stand case. I used only materials found at home. An old notebook case, cardboard to make it rigid, and elastic to hold the tablet in place. (yeah, it's ugly, but I'll replace it with a thicker black one, when I find any)

Just got my new Trident Aegis case. It's nice to have a bit more protection. (pardon the awful picture. taken from my GNex with a dirty lense) I'll take a better pic and update this post later.
Sent from my toro+

I'll post mine when I get home and edit my post....but I'm really digging the first white case.
Edit: Here are my pics, yes I know I need to clean my screen, the case is nice but it isn't very sturdy set up in landscape...if I touch too hard it will fall backwards...not a huge deal because I usually use it in portrait...but nonetheless still annoying.

Re: Post pics of your Nexus7.
Just got my new pink Trident Aegis case yesterday. Lovin' it!

Tech 21 D30

this is the one from the t-mobile store.
it's a _beast_ of a case. slim as all hell, but can take a major impact.
you can spike it like a football. youtube search d30 if you have any doubts.

$35 normally, there is always a 30% coupon on foursquare or google.

Good find, just placed an order on tmobiles website and got 30% off using the coupon code ACCOFFER18

It doesn't add much bulk? Really thinking about carrying her naked to show off her curves. lol I know it's risky. hehe

I checked the case out at a T-Mobile store and liked it. I asked if I could get 30% off and the rep said yes. I was going to get it but you can't see the curve as much. Lol. Might get a full body skin or just carry it naked.

I think carrying it naked will be ok, unless you do a big time drop on jagged concrete...or, a full body skin, which is what I will probably do, so you can see the great curves!
anyone find a glass screen protector yet?
I've been looking at this one, its not glass, but as close as I have seen so far..

So i went to T-Mobile to get the case with the cupon code because i cant wait for shipping and they told me to go online and print the receipt like if i was gonna get it online, so i go back with the print paper and i got the $10 off so i pay $26 with tax. its pretty good case and not big like otterbox i make a little video on youtube :fingers-crossed:

LG itself is providing accessories, Check the below official link

Are you using a case?

I'm wondering if I should use a case on this phone. It has a plastic back so I'm thinking it will survive a drop better than a GS6 and I have a Square Trade warranty. What are you using?

Are the skins easy to apply? What brand do you prefer?

Dbrand. Easy to apply and high quality.

Mine is a little flexy, creaky, and lightweight by itself.
I put it in the Hybrid Supcase with the frost PC which gives it a little mass and rigidity, which helps with the feel.

Totally agree... I got just a cheap thin one. It added just enough to make the phone feel "right".
Fosmon DURA-FRO Ultra Slim Matte Case

I got a dbrand and a nice "pouch" off etsy from seller begoos. I highly recommend

No case, I use a Slickwraps skin (black leather) and a vertical belt pouch from PDAir.

Yup. Plan on selling it next year with the money going towards the next Nexus phone. So better resale value if in great condition.

The plastic on the N5X will dent a lot easier than the GS6! No harm in getting a case

Yup! Don't want the back to wear out.

Must def better safe then sorry

I always use a case....

I don't want extra bulk but I am afrarid of dropping,maybe have a light case is prettty,still seeking.

No case, no skin, no screen protector. But I use a sleeve:

Nope, Nexus Protect has me covered. Plus it helps for resale when I can sell a sealed in-box item.
