Case: nillikin
Color: white
Phone: White Verizon Galaxy note II
NFC: Operational
Screen protector: Included
Cost: $8-9 usd
Purchase location: EBAY
Protection details: Case covers the back and sides but leaves the silver edges on the top and bottom visible and unprotectected.
The case has a small lip around the sides so if you place your phone face down the screen stays protected.
WARNING:
This case is not intended to protect your phone from drops because it is extremely thin and offers no 2nd layer of impact protection.
Material Quality and Feel:
Case is made up of a white hard plastic like your standard tpu cases and feels smooth all around. (The texture on the back does not create a grippy feeling)
The quality of materials are definitely under average and you can tell by slight defecrs of how the case was cut out of its constructed templates. When I feel around the outside and inside of the case you see and feel small jagged pieces of plastic that stayed behind when the case was cut from its molding or template. The inside pieces have also slightly scuffed the side silver trim as well.
Case color is very prone to getting discolored when being taken in and out of denim jean pockets. I loved the color right out of the box but im definitely hesistant to recommend this white color because of the discoloration issue. (Cannot wipe away discoloration)
My positives: Looks clean out of box and its thinness adds no bulk to the phone.
Included screen protector is a fingerprint magnet but is actually decent enough quality for me to keep on for awhile.
Negatives: color gets stained/dirty easily and un removable. Imperfections on outside and inside of plastic damage phone and your hand (not cuts but just irritates me feeling the pieces)

Looks can be deceiving. Always thought the textured back would give more grip...

I have the black one and I absolutely love it. It feels good in the hand. I don't have any rough plastic areas, so maybe the op got a bad one. I must admit the case fits very firmly on the phone which makes it difficult to remove.

Your probably right, I may have gotten a bad one. Would probably have liked the black one because the white one looks ugly after it discolors.

Pictures: Ringke Slim case and Plason tempered glass with proximity sensor cutout

disclaimer: I wanted a very thin case. I don't like huge cases. I understand that there is limited drop protection. I am only interested in having a minimal lip so that the camera or screen do not scratch when I set the device down.
I started with the spigen case and screen protector. Screen protector covered the proximity sensor making the screen turn black during calls regardless of proximity. The case fit well but felt cheap. Design was too bulky despite being marketed as a slim case. Not necessarily becuase it was not thin, but all the corners were too squared off.
So here is the new setup. The case feels good, I wish there was a matted and smoked version, but this will do. The plastic does feel a bit slick. It definitely feels more secure in my hands naked as compared to the case.
The screen protector works perfectly. It has an oleophobic coating that works pretty well too. There is a proximity cutout so the screen does not cut off during calls. The fit is great, goes out all the way to the edges, and the cutouts are very precise. The screen protector comes in a hard cardboard box for shipping, included is a wet/dry wipe and a dust absorber film that worked well.

Looks good! If you have the RIngke Fusion can you take a pic of that?

unfortunately I dont have the Ringke Fusion. I would be curious how long it will take for the clear TPU portion of that case to start turning yellow tho

Did you end up with bubbles or nah

one on the top right that i may have to go back and fix if it doesnt go away. bubbles is very much an installation issue though

I can't see the pictures. There's only a grey minus logo.
I also bought Ringke Slim.
This case has a frosted version but I can only find it from Rearth's Korean website.

It looks slimmer but I can't speak Korean and I cannot buy it.

maybe uploads to the site will work

I got the exact same case. It came today and I set up my 5x. I don't mind the feel of the case too much. Sides feel more trippy than Nakey. My big complaint is that it creaks to all [email protected]*k. It fits well and like you I like the lip over screen but have you tried popping it off?. Will do till another one comes along.

if it doesn't go away, on the amazon description for the tempered glass, it says bubble free guarantee, if it doesnt go away u should call them up

I was able to work it out.

Thank yoou very much. I think I made a good choice. Except the Ringke logo but nothing to do about it

Just got the Ringke slim in black today and I love it so far. I ordered the Ringke glass screen protector but it won't ship until next week.
I got the clear/frost adopted case but it's a little too bulky for what I want.
Is the clear Ringke slippery at all? Read somewhere that was a complaint about the clear one. Black one has nice grip and feel to it.

yeah it is pretty slippery

Your Galaxy S7 Edge is beautiful, but it’s also fragile. Our friends at Cover-Up offer some amazing hand-finished real wood cases for your S7 Edge in a range of styles and wood species. Each #WoodBack case combines practical protection for your phone with the beauty of nature. And because Cover-Up use real wood, each case is always completely unique.

Hi check out my thread that I created on this and my review,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3343558

What are the sides of the snapcase (the black part that goes around the edges) made of? Do the edges at the top and bottom keep the glass from touching a surface if you put the phone face down?
Thanks.

The edges are made of plastic but it's soft touch and there is no lay on the table design meaning if it is face down it will be the glass touching the table. They do sell a case called the Explorer which I should be getting next week and I will be reviewing it so subscribe to my channel! Hope this helps

I want one of these, but no lip on the glass is a no go. What's the point?

It's a minimalist case for those who are only looking for scratch protection I guess, have you looked at the explorer case that they make?

I agree it's a minimalist case, but their first line of sale is talking about how fragile the phone is.
I did check out the Explorer via your YouTube review where you said there is no lip, so I passed over it. I really like the case, but I think they should have went a step further in their design on the Explorer case in that regard. They just need to add a couple of millimeters at the top and bottom chin as there isn't much you can do for the sides.
I may still pick one up for occasions as it is a really good looking case. I like the black ash.

They are really nice case's and it is a shame about the lack of lip.

Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite screen protector

I'm surprised at how good this screen protector is. It comes with a plastic guide that goes on your phone and makes sure the glass lines up perfectly. It comes with 2 kits that include wet and dry cleaning cloths, dust removal stickers, and the glass screen protectors.
This package also includes a protective sticker for the back of the phone. I'm using a case, so I'm not going to use the sticker, but it's nice that they included it.
Finger print scanner works like normal. My phone case fits like normal and I can barely see that there's a screen protector on my phone. This is a way better purchase than I expected. Much higher quality than I expected.
The only thing I'm unsure of is the protector for the camera. I haven't been able to test it out in daylight to see if it shows up in the photos. Only 1 lens protector is included. My case sort of protects the lenses, so worst case I just remove the lens protector.

Do you guys realize it's kinda pointless to use screen protectors on Gorilla Glass 5, not to mention camera lens which is covered with sapphire glass.. you wouldn't be able to scratch it even if you tried.

i am more worried about dropping it, that amoled costs about half the phone in here

From where are you guys buying screen protector for this device?

Thanks for this tip, exactly as you described. Usually these things end up in the bin. Didn't even need to re do finger print , no rainbowing, full adhesive. Top notch. Sacked of camera piece as didn't take but wasn't bothered anyway.

I can't appreciate on the pictures, is it with frame or clear edges?

Glass is all clear, no frames.
I also have this screen protector. No need to manual adjust the screen protector just put the guide on your phone then place the screen protector. Voila, perfect fit!
Best combination for me is this screen protector + xundd beatle case.

Mostly online, it is available in amazon for like 10 US dollars. Here in the Philippines it only costs 8 US dollars.

Hi all !
Also bought this glass kit and must say first impression is positive compared with hydrogel foil and some noname glass.
Transparent, no fingerprint, great feeling under finger, case friendly cut BUT view screwed when wear polarised sunglasses.

Accessories Ringke Onyx for pixel 7 with "dual easy film" screen protector

I bought this case and screen protector from their official site. if anybody is going to get it, pay attention to the screen protector installation instructions. the screen protector, if applied correctly, is hardly noticeable. its smooth for the touch but if you scratch it with four fingers it creates a gouge that disappear after a while (depends on how deep the scratch is). i don't like it as much as i like glass protectors, but its better than nothing since i got the impression that the glass protectors are not playing nice with the fingerprint sensor. other than that it is a solid case as far as i can tell. i had a cheap clear TPU case until i recieved this case. the TPU case is so tough and big that the device felt like those anti tank rugged phones. the ringke is much more elegant and refined on the edges, i like it and recommend it. i had ringke on my nexus 4 and it was and still holding on without disintegrating in the test of time.

This is the case I ordered and I'm looking forward to getting it tomorrow, didn't get it with a screen protector tho. Hopefully it's a good case either way

ringke make awesome case, I been using them for years...I love their loop hole design for lanyard...cant beat it for 14 bucks

I ran that screen protector for like 2 days and it started to peel, fp reader didn't work with it either

Absolutely loving the case! So much grip! It also looks premium so that's nice too

i think if you are using it without case or with case that has almost no lips, then you might peel the protector from the swiping actions. Mine is still pristine for almost 2 weeks, with a ringke case obviously

Case looks ok, however I like better if there is all around extra lifting for protecting the screen. I am using Spigen Liquid Air, nothing special it protects. Using on P6 as well and already smashed the phone on concrete several times when felt out from pocket during riding motorbikes). Unfortunately, Speck does not make Presidio Grip case for Pixel 7 that would be my no 1 choice.
Screen protection: Reminds me for L&K protectors, but biggest downside that will pill up from sides (depends on case) over time. There are similar non glass protectors using GEL to stick properly to screen, those will not pill up easily. Got on P6 like that, and still holds after a year usage.

Possibly the best case for this device, bought off your recommendation and loving it. Why other cases not covering the camera visor the same exact way?....

Just ordered the case based on the reviews here and in the webpage. I also ordered the camera tempered glass protector. Currently, I have the Spigen rugged armor case and Spigen glass screen protector
