It looks like the silicone cases are now available at B&N.com.
Does anyone have one of these? How is it? Specifically, how "tight" does it fit?
I've had silicone cases for other devices that were a little loose and it was really annoying...
thanks
I have the black/dark gray one. It fits pretty snug around the whole unit. I would recommend it until otterbox comes out.
I have the blue one and it fits great.
Yeah I got the black one and its awesome.
I have one and not a fan. I hate silicon cases but can't find anything else that's not so bulky. The fit is good but mine bubbles around the bezel a little.
Just got my storm color silicone case and over all it is great. I prefer TPU cases myself but this is all that is being offerd right now. Fit is pretty tight but it bubbles on the side edge which is typical with silicone cases.I guess it is better than nothing.

I would have said this word for word. Been searching eBay for a TPU regularly.

Me too. I love tpu cases... hopefully one comes out soon.
Here's another vote for the silicon case. It is lightweight and snug, has a nicely 'grippy' texture, and hides the slight creakiness of the NC's casing.
Due to that grippy nature, it only reluctantly slides into the soft recesses of my timbuk2 case, though.
TPU does sound like interesting stuff, judging from this review of a $5 HTC Ego TPU case and the wikipedia page on thermoplastic polyurethanes.
Any updates on these silicon skins? I want something lighter than a case.
I got this one.
I love the grippy-ness, and no longer having to worry about the nook sliding around in the car or off the couch, or having to worry about scuffing it up.
Overall it's a pretty decent fit; the opening on the bottom edge of the screen isn't perfect, but it's not bad, and certainly not enough to remove it or look for something else.
Oh, and it smelled like complete and utter azz for the first day or so, but the smell has completely dissipated since then.
Edit: finally got around to adding a bit of double-sided tape around the inside lip of the silicone cover... now it's a nice, tight, perfect fit. =)
I got that one as well. I love it. It did smell pretty damn bad the first day
Got the Storm one from B&N and love it. Just what I needed. Had the book style and like this one much better. Very convenient.
I have a blue one, just got it last week. I like it a lot and for all the reasons listed- it doesn't slide around, I can hold it in my hand without fear of dropping it, it is snug, it looks nice
They told me at the store that the NC + the silicone case would not fit in a case/cover/book. So I bought a neoprene case. I really like the combination. It fits snuggly inside the neoprene case with the silicone cover on.
I haven't found the *perfect* cover/book for - I've tried several and just can not decide. Until I find something, I like the combo I have now. I realize I might have to take the silicone case off in order for th NC to fit in a regular case, but I don't mind having a few accessories around that serve different purposes.
i too have a B&N black silicone case and love it. Fits perfectly (with the usual slight rising along the screen edges). Bought the neoprene ($20 one) case for it but returned it because i felt like it was too tight and sometimes it pulled on the silicone sleeve. Instead, i went over to best buy and purchased their multi-purpose neoprene case. The dimensions are slightly bigger than the B&N case so it fits perfectly with a good amount of snugg-ness/tightness and there is room to add a microfiber cloth in there too. picked it up for $20 also. It is from Rocketfish and i am very happy with it!

I'm rocking this same combo (B&N black silicone case and Rocketfish universal neoprene sleeve) and absolutely love it.
I would highly recommend these two accessories.

Yes!! I looked forever for a good cheap neoprene case and finally found the rockfish one 4 days ago. Im still hoping to go even cheaper through amazon but im so scared that the ones online wont fit with the silicone case. So far, i am loving it!

What's the product# or model# (or dimensions?) for that neoprene rocketfish sleeve one everyone's raving about? Or if someone has a link, that would be even better.
I'm interested in getting one, but need to make sure I get the right one online.
Thanks.

I just ordered a Trident Aegis Case but I'm pretty sure that I'll feel unsafe walking around with the Nook in that case when it's not in use. Can anyone recommend a case that I can use to hide the Nook while I have the Aegis case on? I'm looking for something inconspicuous like this, but I'm not sure if it will fit.
I use this Belkin neoprene case with my NC and Trident case. Tight fit, but good protection and not flashy.

Thanks, I saw an earlier post talking about that case but I prefer something that can open like a book. If I can't find one maybe I'll go with that.

I got this one off of fleabay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300552863961
It doesn't have a stand, but it works great and was only $13. Plus it was one of the few covers I found that had holes in the back for the speaker.
I bought the Roo Porfolio case at Overstock dot Com and I'm pretty happy with it.

I like this case to, but will vit fit with the Agesis body cover on?
I just picked up this case this week. Very impressed with it for the price. The stand works well and it isn't flashy. Feels good in the hand too. I can't post links yet, but I got it on Amazon:
CrazyOnDigital Folio Black Leather Case
Ended up buying one of these. I'll report on the quality and how/if it fits with the Aegis on.
Edit - Just got this case and it fits perfectly! I even have space for additional cards and screen wipes. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a holder while having the Aegis on.
I've had my i9020t since early January this year and initially I bought the best buy platinum case by seidio but I've always absolutely hated it. On previous phones I've been extremely happy with the Fishbone style cases (like this one) but I've never been able to find one. Has anyone else had any luck and if not does anyone know who the manufacturer is so I could perhaps request one? They've always been dirt cheap with good looks and pretty good protection.
i dont know if i've seen a fishbone case but this is my favorite case:

For 3 buckaroos you cant beat it. I've tried every case(literally) from amzer, casemate, trident, agies, tpu's of all sorts, knock offs, knock ons this is by far my favorite case. It looks great and is so thin. For clumsy people they might want to go for something more protective like the trident. Those are just to bulky for my taste. This case slides very nicely in and out of your pocket feels great in the hands. Try it out its only 3 mc chickens

Thanks man, I'll check it out!
~~EDIT~~
Which color do you have?
i've got red and black being they are my favorite color. This case made me love my phone again after using so many crappy cases.
Hey everyone, here are a few video reviews on Obliq's cases for the S6 Edge. I've never heard of Obliq before but I have to say that I am really impressed with their products so far. They are another company like Verus and Spigen that make cases in Korea. Out of all the Korean case companies, the construction quality on the Obliq cases I received are probably the best. Check out the reviews below.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
awesome! thank you for this! very helpful !
This is nice, thanks for sharing!!
So far I've read the reviews, and I think this is not a bad one. I'm in for this. Thanks!
Thanks
It looks nice and has a decent quality, when I tried to take this case off, it really took me some time to remove it. That makes this case a tough one. But i still like it. Thanks!
It's good that the case is not slippery even the back case, makes it easy to hold.
I think it's a pretty nice looking case.
I really have my impression that this case looks kinda simple. So before I bought this case I check first the reviews and after seeing a lot of positive reviews I decided to give it a try. After having it, i can tell that most of the positive reviews are 100% correct about this product. Product quality is purely awesome which makes my phone looks cooler. Thanks!
:good:
How do you compare this one with the spigen ones?? They are very similar
How nice that my phone's camera won't stick out from the case, it's definitely protected. And in addition I just got it in a cheaper price. :victory:
Nice case. Yeah it looks like Spigen, but this case is cheaper in price!
Well for the meantime this case will do, it's better for my phone to have a case to avoid any scratches.
Great Basic Case
Not misleading in any ways.
Nice case, I'm glad I chose this case for my phone
I like the case that adds protection to my device for both the screen and the back part. The fit and finish are nice. My phone feels very solid , almost like the case is part of the phone. It's nice that this case worked for my phone really great.
Nice! Keep up the good work :victory:
It looks very nice to my phone.
The title pretty much says it all, I'm getting a Nexus 5x in a few days and I'm looking for a nice case to protect it.
I was looking for a leather case that only covers the back of the phone because I don't like those bookstyle things with a flap covering the front.
So basically I'm looking for a nice and thin case (like this http://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Protector-Snug-Fit-Essential-Coverage/dp/B014RS5L9U) but made from leather (or at least something that looks and feels like leather). I know that cases of this type are available for the iPhone because I've seen them around my university but i couldn't find anything like it for the Nexus.
Here you go -- http://www.tetded.com/home/en/nexus...5x-lg-nexus-5x-h790-caen-prestige-black-.html
I have one and I like it a lot. The layer of leather wrapped around the shell case is pretty thin, but has worn in nicely.
Thanks a lot. This looks great, more expensive than i thought but exactly what I wanted.
Anyway do you know where they ship from or have any experience with shipping to the EU/Germany?
