Anyone know where to buy good case for mi5s and mi5s plus?
Sent from my MI 5s using Tapatalk
I also can't find any accessory products online for the Mi5s. Many are for Mi5 only. If you Google search "Xiaomi Mi5s" accesories (with commas) you'll find they aren't true products for Mi5s just by looking at the product photos...
Perhaps we need to wait a bit more until they're made and sold?
I find some on ebay amazon and aliexpress but i don't like them.

If you are on aliexpress, try "Mi 5s" (with spacing) instead of "Mi5s" (without spacing).
I bought a nillkin frosted for my 5s, it is quite nice.
(Nillkin also has an official store on aliexpress)
What about screen protector i have one but it didn't cover full screen have space on all sides approximately 2-3 mm...

No, the phone is still thin for me.
Imma take some pictures and post it here later...
Edit:
Can't take picture (didn't find any phone to take a picture), have this previous picture instead:
Hi , i bought the original flip case for my mi5s , works fine I can answer the call from the front of the case without opening it, etc. The quality is fine , the back feels like a light rubber surface so no slipping issues.
The price was around 15€ inclusive shipping.

They all have no cover for xiaomi mi5s..
Maybe a different case but same looks?
I am looking for a transparent but no thin one, i want one with thick sides but still pc or tpu
I bought a slim tpu case for mi5s but the top of case is flush with screen so if falls flat, screen will not be protected.
So I ordered another tpu case which should have bump around phone.
This is mi5s plus totally same for mi5s i have both phones.

Do you have the link for this case?
I also ordered the (official) flip dot matrix case directly with my mi 5s. Ordered it here: https://www.aliexpress.com/store/pr...-case-for-Xiaomi-Mi5s/342812_32745938725.html but it was a bit cheaper together with the phone. The case is nice, only gripe is that it lacks a hole in the rear for the noise canceling microphone. I don't make many movies (probably none), so it doesn't really matter to me. Nothing I could fix with a needle though
I bought both the nillkin back cover (like awaaas) and the one with the flip cover.
The only back cover is OK, good grip.
The flip cover I didn't like, cannot answer without open it, miss the hole for the led notification and the flip don't stay closed but slowly opening; I send it back.
I agree with @awaas and @fblasot, the Nillkin case is very good! I bought that one too, not too thick and is now better to hold than without case
I have the official Mi case and the Nilkin one. The Nilkin is nice with it's window and it protects the phone a little bit better (the sides of the case are a tiny bit higher than the glass, which is thus a bit protected), but the Mi one feels a bit better. The Mi case lacks the noise canceling hole in the rear, which the Nilkin offers.
Very strange that the official Mi case miss the hole for noise cancellation...what about the led notification ? with flip closed do you see notification ?
Do you have also the problem that the nillkin flip don't stay really closed over the screen ?
Can't answer that, as I haven't yet started to really use the phone. But it has a fairly fine grille, so I think it's possible to see the notification light.
Both cases needed a few days to become a bit "smoother" in opening and closing, but now both stay closed when I close them. The Nillkin takes a tiny bit longer, like 5 seconds until it's fully closed. But as I wrote, I haven't yet really started to use the phone, so it might be quicker closed if I'd use it more.

The grip is almost exactly like the naked phone. If I had to give it a scale from 1-10 (10 being naked phone grip) it would fall around 7-7.5.
Here's 2 pictures of the case on my phone. Sorry for the ****ty pic, It's a random camera I found in the office.

To add to the thread, I'm using the Diztronic case now that I've received the modified version with proper mic holes.
Case is fairly bulky as expected but their matte plastic is some of the best in the business and the grip is top notch.
I'm hoping to find an ultra thin case with little to no lip, such as the official LG made Hardshell (or Shield) case for the Nexus 5.

The case looks nice. Is the TPU or silicone around the volume buttons stiff or soft? Stiffer material makes it feel like it is more protective.

Will the thick TPU sides of the fusion bumper turn yellow over time? Because it's already hazy and murky in brand new condition. and you can easily notice the difference in clarity between the TPU sides and Polycarbonate back.

Hi, I have a silicon case and my past experience has been that such cases eventually form a yellow tint.
So will that yellow tint be visible on this case as well?
Or are Orzly cases immune to that? Would be disappointed if after paying a premium amount, I get the same quality.
No Orzly users here? :l

I have an Orzly flexi case and no, they're not immune to the yellowing effect. In fact, if you turn on the torchlight, the whole case would illuminate in a golden yellow colour.
If you want a transparent case, I'd recommend a hybrid case like the Ringke Fusion. The polycarbonate back would be immune to yellowing and you can choose tinted TPU on the sides, since clear TPU yellows gradually.

The curve on Mi Note 2 is very large, but only on the sides, it's called 3D glass, IIRC.
Mi 5s/Plus just add slight curve to all sides, which often called 2.5D glass.
Or maybe they are simply not out yet, the mobile is only around 3 or 4 weeks on the market so far.
I never have screen protector on previous phones only good case for now will keep this ugly one if i don't find something good will take it out...

I know for a fact that the iPhone 6 has tempered glass protectors that cover the entire screen. I installed one for a friend and it looks indistinguishable from a screen without a cover (the parts of the protector that cover the bezels are already coloured in). Only problem is, since it makes the screen slightly thicker, some tight phone cases no longer fit.
This one for the Mi 5S looks just like the one I installed for my friend's iPhone 6. I have ordered it and will report back if it does indeed cover the whole screen. Otherwise, there is also this one which I will try if the first one doesn't fit well.

I received the first protector I mentioned but I still haven't received the phone yet :silly: Hopefully it will arrive in a week or so and then I can let you know for sure how it is. My initial impression is that it won't cover the whole screen, or at least, it will not curve over the 2.5D part because there is almost no curve on this protector. It certainly looks big enough to cover the entire screen judging by the thickness of the bezel area so I'm not sure how it's going to work. The curve is definitely a lot less than the protector I installed for my friend on his iPhone 6.
Anyway, I'll keep you posted. Good thing is, it was distributed by Amazon so I can definitely get a refund

Sorry for the late reply. I did finally receive the screen protectors. Long story short, neither of them cover the 2.5D portion of the screen unfortunately. I will say though that they probably cover closest to the edge than any of the other screen protectors I've seen. There is also a benefit to not covering the 2.5D portion. As I said earlier, I got a friend of mine a 2.5D tempered glass protector for his iPhone (you can see it here) and even though it covered the entire screen to the point that you wouldn't be able to tell that there is a screen protector on there, it made it almost impossible to put on a case. Every case he tried were really tight and ended up pinching the protector so that an air bubble would always form near the middle of the screen. It wasn't a problem with the installation because the bubble never appeared with the case off. This doesn't happen with the two protectors I bought for the Mi 5S. As you can see from the screenshot, the protector ends just before it makes contact with the case and it's the same with two other case designs that I've tried.
If you do plan on picking up one of these, I recommend the one from Ultimate Shield (ebay link, not amazon) because the Anzhao one was not very good quality. All the cutouts for the home button, earpiece, capacitive buttons etc. fitted perfectly but there were already some minor scratches and tiny dents when it arrived.
Lastly, I will say that I am starting to think that maybe a normal screen protector would be better for the Mi 5S. Because of the little dent for the home button, adding an extra layer of glass on top of the original screen makes it a little more difficult to reach the fingerprint sensor. Maybe a thinner plastic film would work better.

thanks for good review and _REAL_ photos of the case. I was trying to buy something decent on ebay and ended up sending back 3 different cases that looked not even close to what was on the original pictures.
Thought I'd share a quick review of the IPAKY neo hybrid case as I haven't seen one elsewhere.
The case cost around £3.21 from eBay which was shipped from HK and took around 4 weeks to arrive.
First impressions were that it was pretty good looking with a premium design. Second impressions, this thing is SLIPPERY! There is no grip what so ever and I find the phone slipping through my fingers most days.
The case is technically 'dual layer' consisting of a TPU/silicone inner and a plastic 'bumper' frame. I was a little disappointed that the frame wasn't metal, or even more durable TPU/silicone, this would have added a lot more protection. The bumper frame is rather flimsy and feels very cheap.
The case has buttons for power and volume rocker and are actually really good. The cut outs for all the ports are generous and precise and it gives the fingerprint reader a 'guide' so your finger rests in it far easier than without the case.
Longevity: I've had the case since the beginning of January and the bottom of the frame is already seeing discolouration which is disappointing. I haven't yet dropped the phone so I can't comment on protection but I would say after one decent drop, you're going to need another case due to the frame being flimsy.
Overall, I'd recommend the case if you want something that looks good and offers a decent amount of protection.

I see what you mean, maybe the one you linked to is more grippy than the one I have?
I have the one I posted, it's amazing for its price. Has good looks, and good grip. Can't judge on yours. Ha. Guess it's pretty equal.

Thought I'd share a quick review of the IPAKY neo hybrid case as I haven't seen one elsewhere.
The case cost around £3.21 from eBay which was shipped from HK and took around 4 weeks to arrive.
First impressions were that it was pretty good looking with a premium design. Second impressions, this thing is SLIPPERY! There is no grip what so ever and I find the phone slipping through my fingers most days.
The case is technically 'dual layer' consisting of a TPU/silicone inner and a plastic 'bumper' frame. I was a little disappointed that the frame wasn't metal, or even more durable TPU/silicone, this would have added a lot more protection. The bumper frame is rather flimsy and feels very cheap.
The case has buttons for power and volume rocker and are actually really good. The cut outs for all the ports are generous and precise and it gives the fingerprint reader a 'guide' so your finger rests in it far easier than without the case.
Longevity: I've had the case since the beginning of January and the bottom of the frame is already seeing discolouration which is disappointing. I haven't yet dropped the phone so I can't comment on protection but I would say after one decent drop, you're going to need another case due to the frame being flimsy.
Overall, I'd recommend the case if you want something that looks good and offers a decent amount of protection.

It's just a cheap one that came with a clear case. I would not recommend the screen protector at all.

I'm not sure as I have the MTK version.
Just an update to this post.
The case has now broken along the plastic edge in multiple places. I don't recall the phone being dropped at all so that's through regular wear and tear.
I would not recommend this case.

Did you take pictures?
The ones on the mi store...the clear tpu and the screen protector film are good enough I feel.. doesn't add any bulk to the phone and protects from normal drops and abrasion..

Is this case for the Mediatek or the Snapdragon Note 4?
I know that the Mediatek Helio one is a little bigger so you can't use the other's case on it.
I myself have the SD 625 Global Note 4.
Solid case. I also have an IMAKCASE which I prefer over the IPAKY because it doesn't change the design of the phone too much but it does not protect the upper and bottom sides

I've only ever had the Spigen case for the Mate 9 and it has protected the phone very well. I usually put a decal on the back to protect the phone from scratches.
Some advice about the case provided by Huawei with the phone ?
I'am waiting for my Mate 10 Pro and looking for a good case ...
This one looks great :

MSVII right ? I just ordered one,
another great option is Cafele, it has around same thickness and same material
for $3-4 bucks those two are pretty good deal,
used it previously on my S8, nice fit with excellent finish
I went for this one : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/For-Huaw...hash=item21314d9100:m:my56SUhXYf46xbLVMd8r_fA

Thx, they both look nice !
Now I need to choose which one I prefer
Spigen. Though the design is a bit... eh, but it does the job well. I like it because it's thick enough.

Not exactly the MSVII. The one on the foto is the TopACE case but they are almost the same.

Spigen has already some cases for this phone ?
Yup.
I went for this:
CAFELE soft Case For huawei mate 10 TPU silicon Slim Protect Skin Rubber Ultra Thin Phone Cover
http://s.aliexpress.com/jiaQZne2
Will let you know when I get it.
do you think noreve worth the price?
I have the Top Ace ultra thin clear case on my Mocha Brown Mate 10. It's great - not bulky at all and shows off the lovely colour and glass back. There's a slight lip around the screen too. Was £6 from Amazon.
It's not too disimilar to the one in the box actually, though there is much more protection around the rear cameras.
I have also bought the brotect airglass screen protector (had one on my Mate 9 & U11) but am yet to fit it due to the nice glass protector already installed!

does this protect the sides and corner when the phone dropped on the floor?

I would say so yes. Sides and corners are fully covered, with good feedback on the buttons.
The corners aren't extra chunky or anything like on some cases, but it does the job for me.
I would have got the Spigen case if I had the black version as it was brilliant for my Mate 9. Though I wanted something transparent and a little thinner this time around.
Can't go wrong with this one!
(I had it for my U11 too as also wanted to show off the fancy back, just seems a shame to cover these beauties up!)

Just took the pics! Looks great don't you think?
Purchased a bunch from Ali. First thing I did was cut out the plastic between the flash,camera and laser to expose the Leica branding.

I had a Noreve wallet style case for a previous phone (Nokia 1020). It is certainly expensive but the quality is very good. If you've got the dosh I'd say it's worth it. Good protection and looks great. Lots of choice on colours and materials but gets more expensive still when you go off the common colours or leather finishes.
