Pelosi Sandstone Protective Hard Cover

I searched and did not find a thread on this. I was originally going to opt in to buy the Nillkin slim case but it did not cover the bottom and top parts of the phone.... but this one does! So in case anyone is looking for a slim case, with a great feel to it that adds a bit of grip (due to the sandstone feel), this is the case for you. I have it paired with a BestSkinsEver screen protector and I have no issues with it.

Can be bought here. Alternatively, I have seen it for sale on AliExpress as well.

Does it have a lip to protect the front screen?

There is, but it's minimal. Can still feel the "groove" when I run my fingers over the edges and onto the screen itself w/ my screen protector on.

I own this case and I've dropped my phone twice on a hard surface and all was well, got an orzly v2 also, I will buy another when it's a bit more worn

Is it better than Spigen ?

@mzkaye729
Can I request that you post some more close up shots of the front of the phone with the case on? I'm particularly interested in how much the lip covers the screen.
I wanted the sandstone case but couldn't justify the price that OnePlus was selling theirs for.
Thanks

Had that cover, its ok, but the only problem I had with it, when removing from pocket, it pulls my pocket out, because it sticks with it.

1) The material is different (TPU vs. hard case).
2) The slim factor is different (the Spigen case is thicker, longer, and wider).
3) The Spigen case will most likely protect more than this Pelosi case.
So if you're going for slim factor, get this case but if you want protection for your phone, I believe you're better off with the Spigen case.

I'll try and take some pictures tonight and upload them so you can see (unless someone gets to do this first before I can).

What is your opinion on the BestSkinsEver screen protector? Is it similar to a regular PET screen protector? How good is the oleophobic coating on it and the translucency of it compared to the stock or third-party screen protectors?

I am a little biased because I have installed BSE protectors on electronics/phones I have owned, as long as BSE offers the option to as I think it is a fantastic product (good value for the money, shipping is extremely cheap to Toronto, Canada). It's not the same as a regular PET screen protector. I think you're talking about those plastic protectors but I find those scratch easily, and also, the application is different. I have yet to put a deep or noticeable scratch on a BSE skin but again, this depends on how you handle the phones/electronics. I even have this BSE skin on my Pebble watch and that thing takes a beating. Still no scratches visible on the screen protector itself on the watch.
I don't believe there's any oleophobic coating at all on the BSE skin, and if there is, super minimal that I don't even notice it ? With that said, I don't think it's fair for me to comment on the "oleophobic coating" (or maybe lack thereof) because I don't typically handle my phone if I have handled (oily) food. With regular use, I don't notice much fingerprints so it's not something that has jumped out at me.
I have had no issues with yellowing, and the "orange peel" look is VERY VERY minimal compared to something like XtremeGuard (the yellowing issue/orange peel was horrible on that). I had this BSE on my Note 4; had no issue with the S-pen gliding on it. The glossy screen protector from BSE won't cut into the clarity of the phone's display so that's not something to worry about. I have tried glass screen protectors and OK, maybe you can tell side-by-side the difference in clarity by a little bit, but typically, the glass protectors are used for drop protection. I prefer the BSE because the fingerprints on the glass bother me, and my main concern are scratches on the screen, not a shattered screen *knock on wood*.

Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to post this.
Looks like it offers very little protection on the front side though so I will be sticking with my Spigen Rugged. If only this phone was more popular, manufacturers would make more cases. I get jealous of iPhones for having all the cool phone cases.
Thanks again!

Tempered glass screen protector for Xiaomi Mi 6

Did you guys have any luck with screen protectors?
I purchased 2 on gearbest (transparent ones, not the ones with tinted bezels) and they look horrible, all the bezels and around the home button... it looks unsticked due to the slight glass curvature. I'll upload pictures once I can.

I had the same and threw them away 1 minute after installation because they didn't stick near the edges...
So I ordered these on Ali Express. They fit quite well but don't really 'stick' the same way as the thicker ones do on a perfect flat screen so there is a way dust can get under that screen protector...

Thanks! It appears there isn't the ugly edges because it is smaller than the curved parts, but coupled with a good "all around" bumper case, that should suffice...

i use a non brand, from Chinese, tempered glass.
but it's 3D, edge to edge, curved tempered glass, covers fully until the metal sides
it even works perfectly with a case, full protection till the edge of the case
not sure if it can be found outside my country though, since its a no brand thing
can post a pic if you guys want to see

@ ZackoFF96
Could you share a link to a shop where you bought it, please.
Thank you in advance.

Hi, I would love to see a pic!
Also how is the glare on it?
It seems strange that high quality screen protectors that cover the whole mi 6 screen are so hard to come by. The ones with the coloured edges are sufficient to cover up the defects around the edges but I find the glare on them terrible.

Greetings.
I have a Kapaver solid case, specifically this ...
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B071...s=Case+mi6&dpPl=1&dpID=51MwFWjHV3L&ref=plSrch
The case alone I recommend, the touch of the case and the design seems excellent, and gives a very good feeling of protection of the casing, the problem arises when I supplement it with a tempered glass screen protector brand SMTR that I purchased, in particular this ...
https://www.amazon.es/Protector-Pant...X76P4DZ0K67DWZ
The tempered glass soon after putting the case up, I tried with the 2 crystals that are included, and both are detached. They do not seem to detach on their own, but when they put the case on, they leverage and raise them.
My question is:
With a protector that protects curved edges may not happen to me?
What protector do you recommend me with a rigid case like the one I have?
Thanks in advance.

I think my screen protector wouldn't fit with your case, since the lips of your case is far more towards the screen, my case's lips is shorter, just barely towards the screen

Hi, I have same screen protector as ZackFF96.
It can be bought from AliExpress, this is the exact one I purchased:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3D-...rved-Edge-Frosted-Protective/32828496451.html
You can find more listings if you search "mi 6 4d glass".
Just make sure it has a similar style plastic backing on the screen protector. This is the only type of glass screen protector I have found to be full cover and full glue on back of glass.
This type of glass screen protector goes almost to the edge of screen, it leaves about 0.25mm of glass around the edge. It also covers about 0.25mm of the sides of the screen, only noticeable in apps which have lines going down the very side of the screen.
I use this case and it fits perfectly with the glass screen protector.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/For...-and-Silicone-Back-Cover-for/32688209331.html
Compatible with pretty much all cases, I think only the very bulky cases like wooden or big armour cases will not fit. You will need to have the screen protector applied almost perfect though, if too much to one side or corner the case will foul on the glass.

HELP

[Review] Nillkin Frosted Case & XD CP+ MAX screen protector

So I got the Nillkin Frosted case and XD CP+ Max screen protector, here is the review.
The case color is nice, similar to the blue that is on the phone, so it fits well. Case is thin, textured on the back and side which makes it very comfortable on the hand, it's lightweight as well which is good. As with you expect from a thin lightweight case like this, protection won't be much, it'll save you from a short fall but nothing Mil grade protection here, no complaints.
The camera protection clearance is actually quite good, considerably more than the plastic one that comes with the phone, very happy with this.
The only Con is that when used with the same brand tempered glass, the lip sits lower than the screen protector which means don't lay the phone face down on scratching surfaces.
Now on to the screen protector. Very nicely made, heavy, good touch experience, no problem with fingerprints(you will have to re-enroll prints for best exp).
The application is a breeze, just lay it down, don't even have to apply any pressure and the adhesive will stick, removing bubbles is easy too. I left 1 small dust particle somehow and now it's visible on the screen, don't know if that will annoy me or not, might have to reapply it or use the 2nd one that I bought. This is totally my fault though. The edges of the screen will be covered just a little bit, but I don't see any problems with that, everything displays fine in full, the tiny edges covered don't make any difference once you got used to it.
So to sum up. Happy with the case. Very happy with the protector.
I'll probably wait for a nice sturdy case from some US brand to replace this one though, lip protection isn't enough.

Great review, one thing I was wondering, any chance of weighing the case? I was considering the official oneplus Karbon case, that weighs only 13 grams, but costs a lot more, I know that Niikin cases are good quality at the right price...
Do you know how much the case weighs?

no. I don't have that kind of scale to weight it properly. It's real light, it's equal to the clear case that comes with the phone at best, if not lighter.
And seeing pictures on the Karbon case I don't think they differ much in terms of protection, this one got more grip for sure. Also in the blue color very closely matched with the phone color if you have the glacier blue

I have the same colour of 7t , I must admit I tend to like black cases, they Karbon case is only 13grams, which is very light, I did ask on Amazon with regards to the case the weight of the Nillkin frosted case and the seller said it weighed 21gram....still nice and light, but I find the 7t a tad heavy with my current case on which is nice and protective, but weighs 32grams, I like my case etc, but the weight is kinda heavy in the hand.
I have ordered the Nillkin case from eBay from a Chinese supplier, so bit of a waiting time, but great value at only £5.40 delivered.
I am a bit unsure about spending £27.95 on the official Karbon case for the 7t, but I do know they are quiality feel in the hand.
I have had Nillkin cases in the past and I have always found them to be good quality, I shall confirm the cases weight once it arrives.

I just got this case from AliExpress for 3.5$, it's a beautiful case. Fits the 7T perfectly and cutouts are perfect too.

yes it does. And more than the official glass. If you can get it and can afford it I'd still recommend official. But this one does a fine job

This is the case that was super, super slippery when I tried it. Damn near dropped my phone because of it. Sent it back.

really? Defo not to me, it has textured surface on the whole back and also on the sides, no way it's slippery. Maybe you got a different version, check my pictures

Why can't they make a completely transparent one without black borders? All screen guards these days come with those ugly borders.

Because they actually don't stick to the edges. The shape of the screen makes it impossible for the protector to stick correctly and it makes appear some areas which are not in contact to the screen. The black parts are actually not sticking.

What I am waiting for from Nillkin is the Nature case. Because of the Gray variant. I have the Frosted Silver variant. Even though I liked the free case inside the box... it makes the phone a lot more frosted white. Especially on the sides. If only OnePlus provided the smoke gray color just like on OnePlus 6T, It would've been perfect.

Note 20 ultra camera glass protector

Anyone use one?
The rugged protective case doesn't give much protection compared to my note 10 +

I'm using the Spigen 9H glass protector for the camera on my Note 20 Ultra and it's very nice quality, fits perfectly. Seems like a good buy for the price and protection it should bring.

Can't share links yet, but you can check the eBay item number: 264838381367 or just type "Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Metal Ring Camera Cover Lens Screen Protector" there are a lot of sellers from China selling it and shipping worldwide. ($3-4 usd shipped).

As much as I would like to protect the bulging cameras, I would hate for the glass protector to affect the images. Samsung designed the camera lens with a high quality glass and I am not sure adding another layer of glass(questionable whether it matches the factory glass quality) is a good idea. The metal protector listed above seems better but not sure how it will affect pictures that require flash and what if it slides and scratches the camera glass?
I am gonna risk it with no camera protector of any kind, except what the phone case provides.

Adding another layer of glass will not effect the pictures unless you use flash. None of the glass protector for the camera will work correctly if you use flash, just like the S20 Ultra. It leaves a reflection / bluish hue.

The back glass isn't gorilla glass, so it will scratch easier than the screen.

Every additional piece of lense optics effects the image especially if not matched high quality coated optics. Internal reflections between the sensor and lens elements always degrade the image to some extent.
May also cause AF abnormalities.

Accessories Skins for Mi 11? (NO cases and screenprotectors)

I just ordered my Mi 11, hoping it will be shipped soon after CN opens again.
For the last 5 years or so, I've always used skins on my phones/tablets/laptops since I really hate cases but I do want some sort of scratch protection and - most importantly - grip enhancement.
Dbrand Black Swarm is my favorite but it looks like DBrand does not make skins for any Xiaomi phone since some time now (why is that??).
I can't seem so find a company that makes skins for this device at all (tried Dbrand, Xtremeskinz, Exacoat, Slickwraps).
Does anyone know a company that makes them?

Mi 11 comes with pre applied screen protector. As for the cases I ordered 5 different from Ali Express super cheap , 3 came , so I was switching every day to see which one fits best. There's ton of choices and for the cost of debrand you can buy 10 different on Ali Express, I am sure one will be good for you

@Asnamus I'm not talking about cases or screenprotectors.
As I stated I don't uses cases, I think it totally eliminates the design of the phone both visually as physically as it makes the phone much bulkier and heavier.

I couldn't agree more with you. All the cases makes it biger and the experience is much worse with cases. But they do offer good protection.

There is not a lot of them around yet. Found two models, the first is just a back sticker (not recommended cause it doesn't solve the slippery problem), the other wraps around and should be fine if you want to go caseless:

Great, ordered those as well (since the other order will probably take a month untill it arrives).

For those who are interested: Dbrand confirmed they stopped making skins for Xiaomi devices:

I received mine today....
Turns out it's only a cover for the camera unit. Talking about misleading advertising..
To others: be aware don't order this!
Update: after contacting the seller, they told me a mistake has been made and they will resend the missing pieces at once. I will update this post when received.
Update 09-03: I received the covers. They are very thin and hard to put on without bubbles. They do add grip though.

Received the carbon skins, very pleased with the result.

I bought the 3, but the one that served me best was the one with protection on the rear camera. I bought the camera lens protector, but it is very high and only the third cover was able to protect the camera from scratching, when I leave it on the table.

Thank you @jurarj for your recommendations.
I also bought some tempered glass and protections for the lens, but I am desalinated.
They are equals to the ones recommend by you, and what I can say:
1. The protective lens are made from plastic, not glass (glass don't age with time)
2. The fingerprint sensor does not work with the tempered glass
I will probably buy the 3rd option you shared to be in the safe side

I also find some interesting protections.

I am trying to decide myself which one is the effective and discreet.

Could you tell me please if the sides of the phone are fully covered or just the glass part? Could you attach a picture of the side? Thank you.

Only the glass. Very thin and hard to put on, I would not recommend. See post #12 for a picture.

I can say that is much better than the one from Xiaomi.
Be worried about the cameras is now an issue from the past
