Naked or with Case

I just wanted to know who was thinking of just going bare bones naked on this bad boy, or if it will be in need of a case?

gonna get a clear case, so basically naked

For me it depends on how slippery the phone is. I've had a couple of phones that you just couldn't hold on to without a case.

I prefer naked in a belt holster, but the only ones I can find require a case, so looks like I'll be cased for a while!

Naked and in my pocket.

I bought the same case, the mint one. haven't got it yet though. How's the quality of yours?

I got the Ringke Fusion

I used a ringke slim on my N5 and N6. I've been naked with the G4 since it launched. If the 5X is sufficiently grippy naked, which I hope it is, then I'll go with that

Got two cases:

I have a Ringke Slim (clear), TUDIA TPU (black) and the ADOPTED one (clear and hasn't arrived yet). The TUDIA and Ringke are nice so far but I only opened them to see how they felt.

Picked up the clear Ringke.

Cases are fugly
Naked only

Just bought the smoke black Ringke Fusion for my N5X Carbon. Hope it is decent and matches it well.
My N4's bumper has saved it a few times, but I'll see how this feels in the hand without, though.

I like a black leather skin and a PET screen protector. Hoping Slickwraps steps up to the plate for the skin. I usually carry mine in a pouch case (PDAir) on my belt.

Sorry about the late reply overall its pretty good and I love the minimal front bezel bump

Ringke told me their cases don't work with the fingerprint sensor. Can anyone confirm?

OnePlus 3 - Nillkin Black Frosted Case Review

Recently had thoughts to buy case for OP3, was afraid to have it naked, especially the camera bump. Wasn't satisfied by any case. I used to have Nillkin Frosted case for my HTC One M7. Had it for 2 years, apart from small stains, nothing happened to it. I waited for long for Nillkin to sell cases for OP3. Before a week, they had a listing in their site. I'm from India, searched in ebay.in, and luckily there was one seller selling the black color of it. I didn't want to go for White, since it didn't look good with OP3's Graphite color in images. So went with Black, the rear part of the case has no words. It's the best material, plastic yet doesn't feel like that. Non-slippery. Along with the case was a screen protector called as the "Frosted Shield", not a tempered, but does well. I had used the same for M7 for a period of time. Very slim case, covers the camera bump, has perfect holes for all the buttons, and for the alert slider too. Doesn't affect the 3.5mm jack or the speaker holes. Go for it, if you want a slim reliable plastic case.
I bought from: http://www.ebay.in/itm/361625112523
Have attached photos of the case, do have a look at it. Hit the Thanks, if the post was helpful. Thank you!

Great! Bought the same one in champagne through aliexpress two weeks ago. So probably 2 more weeks to wait, haha.

Can you please share the aliexpress link you used to order this???

I ordered mine on this link
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Onep...neplus-3-Oneplus3-A3000-with/32687032486.html
it take a little more than two weeks (which is good from china) but the case was a little deformed on one side, the plastic retail case was crushed too so it might come from the shipping. Anyway, the seller agreed to send another one so I can still use the one I received while waiting for the new one.
I really like the frosted nillkin case. I bought one for someone in my family for a honor 6 and I really liked it.
I might add that the as seen on the pictures, the case protect all corner.
this one is a little cheaper
http://www.aliexpress.com/store/pro...-OnePlus-3-Smartphone/518045_32697306144.html
as in google use the proper keyword on aliexpress, "oneplus 3 nillkin -film -glass" to have all nillkin product except protective film and glass.

This is the only case I like so far, does anybody try it with some tempered glass?
I'm thinking ordering this case, and Orzly tempered glass, hope it will fit. If someone did try this combo, please let me know.

I was thinkig of ordering nillking tempered glass, but its not from edge to edge, thats why I order Orzly.
I had nillking tempered glass on one plus one and it was great.

The touch feeling with the nillkin tempered glass is very good but the edges are just the same of the screen... 0 millimeters larger than the screen. When you install it, don't shiver

I have been a loyal Nillkin Frosted case user for all of my phone's (too many to count) for the last 3 years. Can't recommend them enough. However, I purchased the Karbon case from OnePlus and have to admit that I like it even more. It is a little thinner than the Nillkin case, but feels and looks even better. I really suggest those who don't mind spending a little more to consider it as well.

The official karbon case is made of kevlar so it's tough and lightweight but the camera cut out is a little odd, anyway it was sold out when I ordered my OP3. Is it soft when touching the case?
The nillkin frosted case is great and cheap, only my work iphone 6 don't have it because of the logo cut out on the back.

TPU cases are my favorite due to being safer from a drop but does add a little bit more of a layer but the also help not feeling the phone getting too hot

My arriverd today, so here are more pictures

Still waiting tempered glass from Ozrly to arrive, but i doubt it will fit.

Got this case today and I have to say I absolutely love it!
Normally I don't even use cases on phones -ever- because I hate the extra bulkiness that cases usually give, but I'm really satisfied with this case.
Doesn't really add any bulk to it whatsoever, the case itself feels reallly good and it's awesome that the camera is protected aswell, so no more worrying about putting the phone down.

Curious....this case looks extremely thin. I use a magnetic car cradle. Would I be able to slide the thin piece of metal between the back of the phone and case? Or is the case just plain too thin?

Great case was a bit sceptical at first but since installation I haven't removed it yet. Two thumbs up :good::good:

By champagne you mean the golden version of it?
The golden one would fit nicely with the golden 1+3.
But is it the same type of gold as on the 1+3?

how do you like the nillkin tempered glass? Does it fit well with the case? any rainbow effect or anything like that? And does it cover the whole screen or is there a bit of a gap on the edges?

Have a look overhere:
Case reviews including official Samsung, tech 21, spigen, VRS, Otterbox and loads mor

I have the Spigen Neo Hybrid and their Thin Fit case, the Neo Hybrid is definitely the best case that I have seen, just don't get it in the clear version since it yellows over time, especially with wireless charging use.

I have spent so much money on cases, I bought a Piel Frama's SlimFrama case, a Noreve case, couple of Spiegen cases, and none I enjoyed using. So now up using my S7E without a case.

I bought my dad the Spigen Tough Armor case and it really does not like screen protectors. It constantly pushes it out because of how tight it is to the case.
The other, I have not much clue but I think I would recommend the Ghostek 2.0 because it does offer screen protection as well as a layer of protection to the Home Button. The home button gets scratches, which is a faulty Samsung thing. :\

Agreed. It's the only case I've tried that helps with accidental touches of the edge display during typing. It's also the only case that has tall enough side bevels that actually protect the display (with no lost functionality). Most other cases for whatever reason keep them way too low for no reason other than questionable aesthetics.

I've got the neo hybrid from spigen and I'm happy with it. It works with their screen protectors and also the BSE case fit screen protector skin.

Samsung clear cover the one that covers the back only not the flip scratch case
Sent from my SM-G935F using XDA-Developers mobile app

I got the tough armor a few days ago an its perfect. Feels great while holding and goves better grip. The neo seems slimmer but if u want good protection for accidental drops and a kickstand i recommend it.
Note the kickstand seems a bick thin and might brake easily i think but i do with out it if it ever does.

Spigen Thin Fit = the sexiest, lowest protection
Incipio & caseology = decent protection , medium bulk
UAG = max protection , max bulk & thick as a brick
Check here

I really recommend the PureGear Dualtek Pro. It's a great, safe and beautiful case.

ewww
For me it's like a crime to smash that ugly case to a such beautiful device, but if I would buy a case, it would buy just something thin so it's barely visible on the phone but protects it a bit at the same time.
Just my opinion though.

I got the Speck Dark Case for the Onyx s7 edge. Looks fantastic.

OP3 Screen Protector Recommendations?

I am currently using the included OP3 film screen protector. I would like to upgrade, since it doesn't cover the entire screen and is a fingerprint magnet.
Ideally, I would like a tempered glass screen protector that covers the entire screen. However, if there are no good TGSP's that cover the phone correctly, a traditional film protector would do. Also, I am using the spigen case currently, so any TGSP would need to be compatible. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H3PEWDK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

I'm using orzly version 2. Works just fine.

I use nillkin tempered glass protector on my LG G3 and already ordered one for the oneplus I got coming, my wife's using one on her iPhone 5s as well. Very happy with it as you can imagine.
Sent from my caseless LG G3, because I believe in myself

There is no screen protector this ideal atm because of the curved screen. Liked said as above the orzly v2 is the best choice at this time or the 3d curved from op.

For Comparison:

PLESON: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...7_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=YQS809H8XFZKGRNQBJ24
Thoughts? Could save a couple bucks but I'm not familiar with who is good. I am still rockin' Zagg invisishield HD on my N6.
OP3 is on the way. Damn it takes forever for them to ship...

I've had both Pleson, Yootech and random full screen ones from Aliexpress. They're all mostly the same but the Aliexpress ones were the worst.
Pleson and Yootech had some rainbowy effect but I could live with that. Unfortunately the adhesive has given out on the right side after a month and a half so dust started getting under there, but Yootech sends out another one as soon as they hear about it. Still wish it didn't happen though

Anyone knows where can I find Orzly v2 for Germany?

Are Orzly V2 and Nillkin CP+/H+ compatible with the Spigen cases (particularly Neo Hybrid)? How do these TGSPs compare?

I bought the OnePlus's with the phone, still using the pre-installed one.
I had a Nillkin screen protector on my LG 3 for 14 months before I replaced it, because of small scratches. And I'm not overly concerned with my phone
Just a tip! Don't buy cheap (under 4-5 pounds) nonbrand off eBay, they are rubbish!

Apparently Best Skins come highly rated. Therefore this maybe an option:
http://www.bestskinsever.com/oneplus-3-skins
See also:
http://www.bestskinsever.com/blog/best-skins-ever-screen-protectors-matte-vs-glossy/

Stay away from the Pleson TGSP, didn't stay adhered to the screen for me, at least not with my Spigen Neo Hybrid case.

Anyone using a white screen protector with a grey op3?

I think the Nillkin CP+ is the best choice right now.

I also have a Nexus 6, which also has a curved edge. Most TGSPs have the same issue as on the OP3. By far the best screen protector I've had was the intelliGLASSPRO https://www.intelliarmor.com/shop-b...ss-pro-motorola-nexus-6-screen-protector.html
The don't have a PRO version of their TGSP yet, I have asked if they're going to make one. The do have this one: https://www.intelliarmor.com/intelliglass-hd-oneplus-3-screen-protector.html And an installation tip I've got from them is to put a few ChipClips around the edges and leave it overnight to get rid of the halos.

@jzuijlek, Is it compatible with Neo Hybrid? Is adhesive all over or just the sides? What is the difference between the regular and pro versions for Nexus?

I have Nillkin CP+ and it has been great. No rainbow effect at all and no issues with screen sensitivity.
I use it with Nillkin Qin series wallet case and Orzly flexicase without any problems.

Orzly Fusion case and Spigen Rugged Armor not compatible with Nillkin CP+.Big issues with screen sensitivity.Removed second day.

I have the Orzly V2 with the Poetic Revolution case. I removed the screen protector that came with the case and I'm extremely happy with both.

Accessories Cases - Which One?

I normally buy an OEM case for my phones but so far I am not over taken by the offerings on the Google store.
So do you normally get a case for your phone? If so which one?
Or do you not bother with a case and just go "vanilla"?
Let me know your thoughts and if you can lets see some pictures of your case if you have one.

I usually just get the google case. Don't go "vanilla". If you drop it you'll probably have to pay more than triple of what the case just cost from the beginning.

Spigen Liquid Air now and probably will buy a Matte Black dbrand Grip later. I bought a black leather skin with my Pixel 6 Grip case, but the skin it's so thin and isn't very durable. The Grip case itself is great.

I went with the Caseology Athlex. I am a bit hard on phones, so I will probably get a UAG case as well if/when they come out with some more selection than the Scout. They always have my favorite cases as they offer good protection with a slim profile.
Edit: I cancelled my order and ordered the UAG Scout...

How much thickness does the case and screen add on?

Quite a bit. That model is not petite.

Are there any cases with inbuilt stands besides Spigen and the cheap aliexpress options?
I'm unfamiliar with the 'Poetic Revolution' cases - are they as durable as Spigen?

I'm getting a Gadgetsdhieldz screen guard and Spigen Thin Fit Case! Hope this will be a good fit...

Caseology Parallax looks and feels great on this device, if anyone is curious about one. I've always been a Spigen user, but the grip and colorway on this case have won me over.

Ordered the Spigen rugged case and glass protector off Amazon.

I got a Spigen Thin Fit Case in black for now.
The case may well change in the coming weeks.
