Samsung S4 Active

What are your thoughts? Damn nice looking phone if this is in fact leakes pics of the Active. http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s4-active#comment-603498 What do you think?

not leaked photos, it was shown off at a cell phone convention in croatia

OK, not a leak per se, but pics nor info not released abroad by Samsung as of yet . So, what do you think? thoughts? I feel that this is what the regular S4 should have been....maybe with color choices.

I would be surprised if this comes to the U.S.

I would have loved to have this color on a normal S4. :/

I've looked at those, but I'd like there to not be any any bulk to the phone. Right now i'm just rocking it naked with invisibleshield on the front and back, this has been the first time I could use a smartphone and feel like it's not too fragile to set on the table without a scratch getting on it. :good: If anything it would be awesome if there were replaceable backcovers in different colors, but i have yet to see anything.

There are some. Check out the accessories thread. There are leather ones and carbon fiber that I ha e seen so far. That's one benefit of this phone, we will probably have the most accessories next to maybe the iPhone.

My initial thoughts are the phone looks nice but don't like the physical buttons. Also, doubt that just because it has that coating on the phone the screen won't crack if dropped on concrete. In my mind having a good case is the only way to prevent certain things from happening and if I'm going to use a case then what is the point of a "rugged" phone.
This is just me and I understand others have different needs but that is my opinion on it.

I miss the days of my old Nokia 8260 when replacing housings were common. You dropped your phone, $10 and a few days later you had a new housing that was four screws away from making your phone like new. I suppose a tempered glass cover and tpu cover and replaceable battery covers are about as minimalist with good coverage as you can get. And many of the 3rd party battery covers are two piece anyway with the plastic base and the insert that goes on it. So you get a little extra protection there as well.

not a big fan of those menu buttons. Phone looks nice. Samsung should have saved their fitness bloat for that phone. Up High :highfive:

Crassy View Flip Case

Anyone have this case?
It is a flip cover that covers the entire phone and has the cutout in the front.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Crassy-View...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item4d0e2eb572

Somebody linked a similar case that the whole from flip was translucent and you could even operate the screen through it. Seems like a much better alternative to this. I dunno what the slot is meant to do here, only giving you access to an inch of the screen?

Same thing the slot on the official s-view cover for the s4 does. Its supposed to show you the time/notifications without flipping it open.

Not really, it'll show the time though if that's what you have set up on your lockscreen

They have Galaxy S4 printed on the front though lol.

Yeah, same thing here to Southern California. I've been eying it since even before I got my Note, so I don't mind paying extra for shipping. Besides, an Otterbox is roughly that much.

Leather pouches

Anyone know of a leather pouch made for the M8 yet? I had a Sena case for my Note. I'm hoping I can find something for this as I really don't want to put such a nice phone in an ugly case.

http://www.htcaccessories.com.au/PO_S650.aspx

I will share it here once i find one.

Looks like it fits a bunch of devices..I don't trust it. My sena case was built specifically for my note, fit perfectly, and would never let my phone skip out on accident.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using xda app-developers app

Yes i've been looking daily for a pouch.. (since i got the phone on 6 days ago lol)

I picked up this from Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CMRA06S/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It's originally for the HTC One M7. I use it with my Dot View case. It's a bit snug, but it fits. It's been working out a lot better after working it out for a few days. The package smell on the pouch is a little strong, but otherwise I'm pretty happy with the look and build quality. FYI, it's a belt clip, not sure if that's what you're looking for.

I emailed sena cases about this.. they said they'd look into it if they get more attention about the phone. I'd suggest you guys do they same if you're interested. They already made cases for the older ones so hopefully they will for this too.

I just got a Krussel 5x case that's a little too big but works. Quality leather and I owned a 3x size with no problems.
I wonder if a 4x will work.
Sent from my HTC One_M8

This pouch case is from Noreve. I have ordered many cases from this company and they have been super well made. And if there ever was an issue, they replaced mine without a problem. Highly recommend this company for quality and excellent fit.

Krussel's web site says the Hector 4xl is the right one for the M8, but according to the published interior dimensions it is 1.5mm short on width and height.

Wow, these look really nice. The lava(gray)/petrol(dark blue) combination with a cc slot is really tempting me but it isn't cheap. Post pics when you get yours please.

You're welcome! I'm still not see the flex cable with the power and volume buttons for sales; the replacement of Elephone M2 still rare. if i had found, i would add on this thread.

Thx for share, had bought a battery back case and Rear Back Camera Cover for my M2, hope it could arrive soon.

Pouch for the dual screen set up?

We in the UK still don't have the V60 so I've had to import mine. Also we don't have many options for accessories! Any ideas for a pouch for the Dual Screen? Thanks in advance.

Look on eBay

The majority are for the V60 not the dual screen case / unit.

I bought this one and it fits my V60 in the dual screen case perfectly. The link is from Amazon US, but perhaps you can find the same item on the UK Amazon?

Nite ize make some really good ones that should be big enough to fit this phone. I Can provide you the link for two of their different ones that hard clamshell and the sideways XXL cases. There was a decent one I seen on eBay to for about $12 I can provide you the ebay link if you would like.

I've had one similar to that in the past for another phone and in my opinion it was just cheap junk and broke very easily.
if you want something of quick quality you're better off looking at the night Eyes the sideways case and also the hard clamshell both in the XXL size.
I seen a decent looking one on eBay this morning to for around $12 if you want any of the links I can get them for you.
