Hello guys
I have been using this device for few weeks . And now I'm looking for a nice case
I want a case with Nexus printed in back of them and remaining case should be plain /with descent texture
I've already searched on Amazon.. but looks like cases I want are not available in my country :silly:
So can anybody suggest me a good case and post a link here ?
Thanks in advanced
(Ps I'm using black Nexus 5x .. in case someone needs that info too )
(Please ignore grammatical mistakes if any )
I got a Smoke Black Silicon S cover, it protects against scratches and minor bumps, and it gives some extra grip. Also looks really sweet and since it's quite transparant it still shows LG and Nexus. Can't really find the link anymore but searching smoke black tpu s or smoke black silicon s will probably get u the same thing, and it's quite cheap too, mine was like €2 from aliexpress.
The supcase comes in a version with a clear back so the Nexus logo shows?
Amazon Link Example
Thats the case I use. Its been a great case.
I bought a nillkin tpu 0.6mm. Its cheap and good too ( ₹399). And no Nexus is not printed on it, but its transparent, best thing about this case is that it also covers the usb and headphones slot. And the power, volume button feedback is also improved. See here

I use the same case and like it. "Nexus" is clearly visible through it. I kind of wanted to be a **** about showing it off as Nexus and their's no difficulty seeing it. IMO it's doubtful that you will find a decent, legit, case that says Nexus on it unless Google sells it. Nexus is one of their trademarks. You may find some skins that sell you the letters n, e, x, u and s that you can stick on with the rest of the skin but they are pushing it too since they are replicating the size and font of the actual trademarked logo.
The Nillkin is okay, the best thing about it is the dust flaps. BUT, it's a little too thin for my liking and feel flimsy. Has no camera protection whatsoever.
I'm using a Ringke Fusion now and it's much better. Not flimsy (i would like it to be a touch thicker) and has proper camera bump protection. I have the smokey black/clear as i read the all clear can discolour (yellow) around the edges. Plus it comes with a cutout template which you can make any logo visible through the clear back. But i'm not using it as the Nexus is very visible and looks great. The button feedback on this case is great (same as Nillkin).

What about the space between camera fingerprint sensor and flash,some people said the phone could be scratched with the ringke.

I've had mine for about a month now and no such scratches on my black 5X. The back of the Ringke Fusion is a harder plastic to the side bumpers, and yes the cut-out for camera and finger print does appear to have a sharp finish where it makes contact in this area. The actual side where you can touch has a slight bevel edge, it feels great. Given that it sits flat with no movement, I can't see how it can scratch the back of the phone. I've used many cases with this phone, this one is easily the best so far. It's a perfect balance between moderate protection and retaining the natural feel. Plus it looks very nice and clean. The only negative I have read about it, is the clear bumper version and discoloration. I have the smokey black which has no such issue. [Edited for more details]

Here's a quick & dirty pics review for the Mercury brand TPU case.
I bought this TPU case from eBay at a whopping $7.77 US total once shipped. Definitely not a bank breaker.
I have bought it from supermom28. You can get one here. I ordered it on January 4th and received on January 16th, the seller even included a cheap plastic screen cover. Sadly it seems the white color is currently out of stock, so if you are looking for one you might want to look elsewhere!
Plastic quality is very good. The first thing I noticed when unpacking it was how rigid the TPU felt. My other TPU case feels much more rubbery than this one, albeit not as much as a silicone case. This can be a pro or a con, depending on your preference.
One con I can see is that since it's less rubbery, it's also less grippy. The Nexus S in my opinion is plagued by the fact it's a slippery phone, so you have to make sure you have a strong grip when taking it out of a pocket or your purse, if you're a lady. This case does not solve this problem.
Two pros I can see however is that it will not attract dust and particles as much as more rubbery cases and it is much shinier. The case is very light reflective, definitely looks good.
The cutouts are good. They're not absolutely perfect in their location, but they're not atrocious either. One example would be the headphones jack. The edges are smooth and well finished.
It fits snugly on a i9020a model. Snugly might not even be the right word, it can even be quoted as being nearly too tight. Fitting it on the phone can be a bit difficult, mostly due to the material rigidity so it's important to fit certain edges first or your might end up with slightly misaligned power and volume buttons.
The color is vibrant. Although in the pictures it seems the white is cream, this is due to the low quality point and shoot camera I'm using with little to no possible adjustment to white balance. It is definitely white and I imagine the other colors would be as vibrant. One very nice touch is the inclusion of what resembles automotive paint flakes in the plastic, giving nice looking silvery reflective shards.
Some users have noted the obvious engrish on the case logo. If you dislike it, it can easily be "sanded" off using a cube of sugar and a bit of rubbing. Another curious inclusion however is the engrish inside the case. Just look for yourself...
Thanks for the warning Mercury, I'm sure removing this sticker could yield lethal results.
All in all, I could say I'm pretty satisfied with this TPU case. It's cheap and looks good. My only gripe would be the slippery feeling of this case. My other TPU case added grip to the phone, this one does not. Otherwise, a very solid buy.
Thanks for the review - I was having trouble deciding on which colour case to get for my new Nexus S but think I'm definitely going to go for the white one now - it looks great!
I contacted the eBay seller 'supermom28' a couple of days ago and they did reply saying they will be getting the white case back in stock, but no ETA on that so I may have to look elsewhere.
The only thing I'm not digging is the openings for the buttons, but other than that, it looks like a nice case.

This is something I'm not too sure about. On my other TPU case the buttons are covered. I like the unified look it gives. However, I kinda enjoy the feeling of pressing directly on the buttons rather than squishy rubbery plastic. They're obviously a bit recessed too so that's something else to consider.
I have two of these and I love them. Too bad the white one went up in price so high.

If you look at the other case the seller sells for the Nexus, it is a white one with sticker animal faces for $12.99. :thumbdown:

i got the black one, the writing on the outside comes off with your nails and i removed the sticker from the inside and it was covering a spot that's not painted!
I just got mine in the mail yesterday. I forgot to specify the color in the paypal notes and ended up getting a white one. I am not the best at putting on screen protectors so i didn't do a great job with that. But funny enough, I dropped my phone for the first time on the way to work to pick up the case. It made me realize that I really want one. Luckily, the back cover just ended up with a scratch. My phone is defiantly protected, a bit weightier, a bit thicker, but still fits in my pocket.
I've got a read one and my wife thinks it looks like a ladies phone case. I may end up getting another color

Hi all
This is the only case I've seen so far, not in stock yet.

Any more about ?
There are a few on Amazon UK, you seem to need to search for ""xperia t" case" to get them to come up, perhaps because they are so new and not ranked correctly in search

This looks like it may be the best of the bunch thus far. Gonna order one this weekend.
Got this one also from MobileFun.
I'm hoping a better quality TPU case will come along.
The one I mentioned above from Amazon does the job but its not a good fit. There is a clear gap near the headphone socket viewed from the front, and it doesn't sit flush along the front bottom.
Will keep it safe for now though

Just reposting something I posted in another thread.
I bought a Terrapin Solid Black Hybrid Rubberised Back Cover / Case / Shell / Shield + 6-in-1 Screen Protector Pack for Xperia T from Amazon and it arrived almost a week earlier than estimated (2 days delivery!)
Best bit is it was only £4 so it's amazing value for money. It doesn't feel cheap at all and the material feels very smooth with a matte finish. Almost the same texture as the T's back case. The fit is perfect too - it snaps on to either sides of the phone with only openings at the top and bottom and the device feels very secure in the case.
The aforementioned sides of the case also raise slightly higher (about a mm or so) than the screen so if you were to rest the phone on a flat surface face down the screen never touches. In regards to accessing the side buttons (Power, Volume controls and Camera button) they're all very easy to press - unless you have fat fingers or overgrown nails.
I highly recommend getting one from Amazon since the delivery came earlier than expected and even if you want something more protective (leather flip case, bumper etc) this is only £4 and makes a great temporary case.
Link to the case can be found herehttp://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B009HRVW7W/ref=mp_s_a_4?pi=SL75&qid=1350000465&sr=8-4

My apologies if the photos aren't very clear. They were taken with my girlfriend's iPhone 4 - at night - in the kitchen. If you want I can take a few outside tomorrow morning in the sunlight at whatever angles you want. As you can see the case hardly adds any bulk to the phone - about 1.5 mm either side and 1.5 mm on the back.
The Rock naked case is really nice, have no issues with it so far and looks great.
Just bought the Krussel one, very handsome, well fiting and comfortable touch...I really like it and don't regret my money...
Next week i gonna get my Xperia T and i gonna order this case
http://www.ebay.nl/itm/Protect-Sili..._PDA_Taschen_Schutzhüllen&hash=item3f1caf26d3
love the design :good:
Quick question: What kind of case is best for impact protection, a hard case or a TPU case? Also, how badly will each type affect the phone's ability to cool itself? I've never used a case for my phones before, and I'm kind of worried about exposing the softer TPU case to the hot afternoon sun when I use my phone as a GPS, so I would like some advice if possible.

Got this today and its fantastic, well made and really suits the phone
Glad you like it. I haven't found anything better yet, which could be a good thing - it really is a nice case.
That said, I sent a message to Incipio on their facebook site and I got a response to keep an eye out on their company website in the next 2 weeks or so... I like their other Sony smartphone cases. Another great company is Krusell, they already have cases for Xperia T but they don't seem to deliver to the UK.

I got my Rock case last week, and I have to say I love it. It feels tough, while not being obtuse or overbearing size wise. The edges on the screen side are tall enough to prevent the phone from resting on the screen itself when turned over, but don't stick up too much to be in the way.
Yeah I have the white Rock case and it's easily one of the nicest cases I've seen
Just thought I'd give my 2 cents on these.. I just applied the Ultra Crystal Spigen screen protector and yes they are ultra clear.. other than barely being able to see the edges around the perimeter they are undetectable. Exactly what I was looking for.. I stopped using screen protectors because they always compromised in some way the quality of the screen and I've tried a few of the most popular.. these are fantastic.. 2 for $13 and pretty darn easy to apply. The only down side from the reviews I had watched was they are harder to clean off fingerprints than the glass.
Also I received the Diztronic matte finish super thin case.. it's slightly soft and has the matte finish. I believe this is the thinnest best case that will give a decent amount of drop protection.. definitely not the greatest protection but way better than a naked phone. $9 on amazon. It seems really good quality .. the cutouts are bevelled smooth . I really like the feel of it and it barely wraps around the bezel.. so it doesn't mess with the screen protector.. which I was slightly worried about.
i concur with your feedback on the Diztronic case... i will always use a case and this one has the right balance of protection, thinness and coverage.
Just uploaded a video of a kickstand I added to the case.. it's pretty cool and cheap.. and somewhat ghetto but very functional.
>>>>>>>>>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyUyy8_mOA0
I have had a diztronic case of the same type on my Galaxy Nexus for the past year and a half and I love it. I'm dying here waiting for the Verizon G2 version to release.
I have the same brand on my current phone and love it.
I'm considering this case but I'm a bit skeptical. It appears to have a thicker area around the edges... Kinda like a bumper. Is this true? Does the front of the case cover any of the screen?
As far as the back.. It looks like the buttons are a bit deeper down because of the case. Does this make the buttons any harder to push while holding with 1 hand?
Thanks for posting this BTW

nope.. the lip where it comes over the front of the screen doesn't cover any of the screen.. it only covers the very tiny bezel surrounding the screen. As far as the buttons on the back.. they are a bit deeper down because of the case but it actually makes it easier to find them.. your fingers just drop right down in where they are and it doesn't effect pushing them at all that I've noticed. After a couple days with the phone and a day with case and screen protector I'm feeling pretty darn good about the whole deal... like I'm done. Well.. till the lg g3 comes out :good:

I believe this is different. AT&T has a microphone near the camera and this case doesn't have the cut out. I believe they are making one for AT&T.

Yeah you can see from the OP's pics that it doesn't have a cutout of the tiny mic hole on the rear casing of the AT&T version. This case is definitely on my watch list, although I have a Poetic Palette on it right now and really appreciate the minimal bulk it adds while offering basic scratch/ding protection and a better grip. So right now it's either keep the Poetic, an Incipio Feather once they're available, or this case once it's available for AT&T. That's where my thoughts are right now anyways.
The fit is perfect, as with all of Spigen's products. The shape follows the curves of the phone well. There is an edge around the side that feels great in the hand. The front has a slight lip that keeps the screen safe when placed face down. The look is optically clear and flawless, it really shows off the aluminum. The feel is smooth and "sticky". This case won't be slipping out of your hand anytime soon. Pair this with a Spigen screen protector (I did) and your investment is safe.

Just ordered one of those.
Got it from an Amazon seller with great feedback. Hopefully it is legit.
It's about 1/8" thick but it doesn't add that much size to the phone, it's already a heavy phone to begin with. I know there are thinner cases out there but for me, it's a good trade off for the quality and the protection it affords.

Their loss in my case. I didn't have time to wait with my job so I had to move to another maker. I really wanted a Spigen too. Glad to see its working for ya. Maybe on my next phone I'll give them a shot...
My case came in today as well. Love the look and this phone is phone is no longer slippery. Bestcase so far.
I have one of these on the way as well. I like that it's clear so I can still show off the beautiful gunmetal grey finish.
I ordered one but now might return it. Going to be here in a day or two but now I want to add this qi wireless charging solution where you hide the receiver in a case. http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Univ...id=1396026021&sr=8-1&keywords=type+b+micro+qi Wonder if I could spray paint the wireless receiver to a gunmetal type color and if it would look ok in the clear case? Probably a dumb idea.
I do have the dot view case already that I think I could hide it in. Though I'm not sure I want to always use that case. It's neat but I think it's novelty will wear off and it'll get annoying. Anyway if you want to read more on wireless charging there's a thread in this forum.

Been looking for something like this thanks!
I went to order my Spigen a week or so ago (I had posted about them in this forum). When I tried to order from my wishlist on Amazon it said someone already ordered me two. I was thinking my Dad. He says he didn't. I am hoping it comes today, and it was not an amazon glitch. LOL.
In case anyone didn't know they seem to be back up on the site (No longer saying mid- April)
I just received mine.
Definitely a *very* Spigen product, consistent with their design philosophy.
Let's start with the con:
• Edges are rather sharp, it lacks that rounded edges. As a result, it feels like a fair bit of bulk is added.
And the pros:
• The TPU material is definitely the best out there; about 4-5x thicker on the back side than the average TPU cases, and about 2x thicker around the sides/bezel/lip.
• Fairly decent lay on the table on the front face, leaving an ample clearance between the screen and table surface if you're laying it screen facing down.
• Audio port and USB port have their own cut-outs, and they're nice and have ample enough opening for most (respective) accessories.
• Volume buttons and power buttons are covered, and they have a very satisfying tactile feel when pressed.
• Clear material, really shows the true colour of the M8's Gunmetal Grey. Some TPU cases cloudy clarity; but not the case with Spigen's. EDIT: Someone mentioned a tint of yellow of the rubber; I noticed it too; but I believe it heavily depends on the kind of light that hits the TPU material.
• Improves tact; texture on the TPU material adds grip.
Things to watch out for:
• As like most clear TPU, there might be discoloration overtime. We'll see how the Spigen's Ultra Fit Capsule fares in the long run.
• Spigen's other Ultra Fit products come with a screen protector. Wouldn't hurt for Spigen to bundle the Ultra Fit capsule with a screen protector.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with the purchase! Spigen never disappoints. But having said that, I wish they'd curve the edges slightly.
7.5/10 (that sharp edges really hurt the score).
My case came today as well, and it looks very sturdy. I hope the TPU doesn't turn yellow though! A good case for everyday use.
I don't know if this case has been reviewed yet or not but I just got it today. I had to find a case quick and it needed to be cheap since I don't know if I'll be getting the HTC 10 or LG G5. It also needed to be available for same day Amazon shipping since I couldn't go another day without a case. Don't get me wrong, I would have loved to use this phone without a case but it's design makes it a little difficult for me. My palm is always touching the screen which causes some minor issues but my biggest complaint is while playing a game such as Trials Frontier. When playing a game like this, it starts to become uncomfortable after just 5 minutes of play. It's most likely due to the phones thin edges which are rounded but still sharp when holding it horizontally.
Anyway, this case fixed all of my issues. It still keeps the phone very thing but it provides just enough thickness to the edges to make the phone feel more comfortable when using. The case itself feels well made but I suppose there isn't much to screw up with a TPU case. All of the cutouts match up and the buttons stay very crisp. The case provides a nice grip without providing to much grip to where it becomes an issue sliding your phone in and out of your pockets. The actual fit of the case is very snug but it's still easy to remove. I suppose if you keep on removing it and installing it, there is a possibility it could become loose.
In regards to protection it's not going to work any miracles but I'm sure it would provide some kind of protection during drops. It's a super thin case that has the corners slightly raised. They are raised just enough to keep the display off of a hard surface if the phone falls face down or if you like keeping your phone face down on the table. These raised corners however only slightly sit above the front glass so dropping it on an uneven surface such as asphalt could have dire consequences. The back is no problem at all as the raised corners give the back glass more clearance.
If you're looking for a crystal clear super thin case that offers nice grip, decent protection and allows you to showcase this nice looking phone then you might be interested in it. If you care more about protection than the way your phone looks and feels then this probably isn't the case for you.
You can pick it up on Amazon for $12.99 (PRIME Eligible.)
Side Note: The Edge display keeps full functionality if that's important to you.

I did this late last night. I'll take some pictures today and add them.
i bought 4 luvvitt cases when they were like $4-5 on slickdeals including this one. haven't opened this one yet, but will. thanks for the review.
Does the back have texture? Does part of the phones glass back stick to it at all?
Also btw the sale on these cases (including the normal clear one) are still going on with the code SLICK007

Yes. The back sides are textured. I also just removed it to see if it stuck and no it doesn't.
I don't know what kind of deal that coupon code gets you but it its $10 or less then I'd definitely get one. I needed the case same day shipped through Amazon Prime so I just paid full price.

I also got one as well during the SD promo as well, Posted some pictures of it bellow and sorry if the quality is not up to par.
Just wanted to help out on the real pictures. It's fine I've been using the Spigen Tough Armor for now. Just wanted a clear one for home or if show of how nice the phone looks while still on case.
Thanks from the real pictures. I knew I was forgetting something today. My wife had me running around like a chicken with my head cut off today since we are having family over our house for Easter tomorrow.

can you detail your opinions about the build and pros cons of the Luvvitt cases.
Bought sleek armor and aside from the lack of lip it seems like a nice low profile case with some protection. Just dont like the fact that the phone when face down with the case does not have enough lip to protect the screen.
The home button rest directly on the surface.Testing this out I caused micro scratches on the home button which is naturally a bit raised.
Would love pics and opinions on what yours are like...
