M8 carbon fiber case - One (M8) Accessories

Nothing special but thought I'd share. Loving it. Just arrived from Hong Kong today...it's a very tight fit to the phone and provides great shell protection to the back and ends of the phone. It cost 12 bucks with free shipping and came with an anti reflective screen protector. Shipped in about 10 days.
EBay seller's name is platinumarrow if anyone's interested.

Looks similar to an OSIR one I used to have for my iPhone.

I'm a huge fan of anything carbon fiber. But 12 bucks? That seems a little cheap for something made out of CF, doesn't it?
EDIT: It's plastic with a CF finish. Still cool. But now you've got me looking for a case actually made of carbon fiber lol

I've read that real carbon fiber can interfere with cell signals, so you might want to keep that in mind.

The only thing I've found so far is this: http://blog.laptopmag.com/best-htc-one-cases?slide=7
CF case for the M7, nothing at all for the M8 but skins. Also, this particular case isn't on their website anymore. So I dunno. But maybe CaseMate will release a real CF case for the M8 at some point or another

[Half Review][Case] Ballistic SG Series for Nexus S 4G! 7/3/11

Alright guys so I have a half review for everyone. Due to me not being able to find my cable for my camera, I have pictures taken from my 4G so no pictures right now with it in the case. Will have some of those shortly! Enjoy.

Comparison to the Seidio Active

Just found that Ballistic makes a case for the 4G. Being in construction, I had one of these on my EVO 4G and LOVED it. Buying now. Great case and highly recommend it!
Since I can't do direct links I guess... Search "Ballistic Case" in Google and either click on Sprint or Samsung once in the site.

Most likely it will. It's labeled as the 4G so don't blame anything on me! It fits awesome! It adds bulk but no more than any Seidio case. I think the protection is better than Seidio. The fit is perfect and snug. I can't do a review tonight but I will try and find my camera to do one for this weekend or tom/Friday.

I would throw it around if it were the HC Series but the SG Series is less hardcore. I had the HC Series on my EVO and dropped from about 8 feet onto broken up concrete with no problem multiple times. This seems to offer plenty of protection though.
Alright guys sorry for the delay. I have the pictures taken I just can't find my cable to transfer the pictures... Be up soon hopefully.
Thanks this red looks real clean. How does it fit in the pockets? I just wondering cause the corners bulge
Fits the pocket pretty good for a heavy duty case. Nothing worse than any other silicone case. I shouldn't say silicone but it's fairly easy in and out. That's what she said?
Thanks for letting me know about this case. I purchased the black one and it DOES fit my Nexus S (T-Mobile). The BodyGuardz I have on the back of my Nexus S seems to help the fit but I did contact Ballistic CS and they told me it would fit.
I was looking for a replacement for Otterbox (this looked so clean and probably would have been the best case too bad they didn't make it) and I'm liking this and the Aegis.
My Ma has one of those (well, very similar to that for the Desire HD). I just don't like the pink ... afraid of catching "The Gay"
I'm just joking, pink just isn't my colour.

[REVIEW][i9023] Nilkin Hard White Case : Cleaned up the pictures!

So, my Nilkin case arrived in the mail on friday. Took 2 weeks.
The Gallery of images can be viewed here for a better look and experience. HERE
So here's the package.
Link1
Comes with a screen protector ( Not gonna change my screen protector yet )
Link2
And here are some pictures of the case being naked. (without the phone)

Link7
Link8
Link9
Now for pics with my phone with the case
Link10
Link11
Link12
Link13
Link14
Link15
Conclusion:
Overall a very good case. Actually makes the phone look very good. Especially the back where the phone looks slick. The fact that the bottom and top are protected halfway scares me, however i can take care of the phone well so it depends on you.
The case feels quite slippery when you hold it up, so you have to grip it tightly.
Looks good on the sides and all round. Generally a very nice case to have.
I love it.
I hope this review helps you to decide and if you liked this review PLEASE HIT THE THANKS BUTTON
Thanks for reading!
Could you please resize the images? they are a way to big
Update 1: Cleaned up all the pictures, just click the links to view them

If you keep dropping your phone you definitely need a cover. I dont think this is available for NS4G though. You'll have to look for a similar one.

I think it's cheaper on eBay, but CASESSS.com offers faster shipping options and free to Singapore as well.

[Q] Protective covers anywhere?

Has anyone found protective covers for the 4X anywhre?
I have only managed to find "socks" and holsters, but no form-fitting covers.
I realise it's still early days, but i would really like to protect my 4X.
I would really love something like a Powerskin for the 4X, but i doubt thats gonna happen...
I emailed SGP, asked if they were going to make cases for O4X. They said they have no plans for the meantime but will consider manufacturing if they see a demand.

Wouldn't it be hard to make a case for the 4x because of its design?

Okay I'll do that. I took a few pictures of the front as well but they were too dark.
Edit:
Actually, there's some hard silicon cases on aliexpress.com Comes in a few colours.
Thank you for those nice photos
I'm from France, anyone knows if there's a website from were i could buy this case without having to pay a high "shipping" price ?
Edit : I ordered mine too, a black one !
An other question : the LCD guard sold with the case, how it is ? Is it a good one ? (this one : http://www.nillkin.com/upload/editorfiles/2011.12.31_16.3.9_8226.jpg )
Bought this soft silicon case yesterday for only US4.5, comes in several colors. One thing I like this case is that it still shows the beauty of the back cover!

Bodyglove case from T-Mobile retail stores... [pics]

It's slimfit just like the one from the Sprint store.
It's also anti-microbial as well.
Like stated in the other thread, one of the best TPU cases I've owned.
With the foursqure coupon at TMo, you get it for 30% off.

Nice looks a little different from sprint one. Sprints has the whole back textured, the bottom is smooth and glossy, and the sides are a smooth matte.

I also have this one and yes it slides in/out pocket well.
Feels thin but will protect from drop/scratches and the gray color goes well with the Note's Titanium color.
So far it's maintaining it's shape and no scuff/scratches. It's a keeper for myself.
(just noticed it's $18.65 on amazon)

Those diamond cases are awesome. I used one on my s2 forever. The gray part is rubber, the white is plastic. One piece design similar to the Speck candyshell.
If you work at T-Mo...do you know if the 30% Foursquare thing still works? That's assuming these things exist in stores yet. I thought I saw someone say they used it a few days ago, but the only thing I can find are links to a promo from last year.

Looking for a backless TPU case for my S7 Edge

Something like this one for the S6 Edge: http://www.amazon.com/Dreamviva-Colored-Rubber-Backless-Samsung/dp/B00W384TCM
So it can protect the phone on the sides/top/bottom if it falls from a height of 2-3 feet, but has no back so I can enjoy my titanium silver finish.

This is exactly what I'm looking for too. Still no luck on Amazon.
Enjoy it how? Why not a clear slim case?
Same, this is exactly what I want as well, add minimum bulk to the phone while protecting it. I'm also going to add a screen protector of some kind, given I've broken two S4 screens in the past two years. <eek>
Thinking might have to get out my exacto knife and make this from a normal case...
Anyone have a screen protector recommendation?
I too am looking for this or a metal version, glad I'm not the only one.

Hard to tell,given no photo available ATM,but,the description seems to indicate this is indeed a backless bumper.
FWIW,Samsung has one for the Note5,got one myself,so,I'm lead to believe this is it,given every other configuration of cases for the S7 Edge have already been covered.
