which case would you recomend for bumps

Im use to samsung and apple phones so theres always been alot of choice, but for the nexus theres just a few brands im not familiar with.
Ive used an apple leather case, tech21 case, trident case, ballistic case, and incipio.
Im looking for a case that looks good and decent protection.
I plan to keep the phone in my pocket, and at work i tend to bump into things. Also since the phone is so big id like drop protection.
So out of all the cases out there which would you recomend and why?

Take a look at UrbanArmorGear or UAG

I would recommend Moko or Supcase. They are both pretty thick cases, and in my opinion, are pretty easy on the eyes

Cruzerlite TPU and TUDIA TPU cases are Mt favorites. They are slim, protect against drops and are great all around cases.

I just pick this case up from Amazon. It's a pretty nice case doesn't add too much bulk to the phone. It looks pretty good on the phone.

I like how theyre slimmer. Do you really think it would protect the nexus from a fall?
The UAG case turns has the horrible logo mixup haha, maybe they'll have other colors?
Havent seem the other cases, i look them up.
Also are thet Spigen cases any good?

I've got the Spigen Ultra Hybrid on my N6. Two drops from waist height onto asphalt, right on the corner. No damage to the phone or the case.
I was impressed considering the Galaxy S3 I had before I got the N6 fell off my bed, right on the corner, with an Otterbox Commuter case on it and the lcd was destroyed.
I'm sure the other heavier duty spigen cases will give you even more protection. I just got the Ultra Hybrid because it doesn't hide the white back I went through so much hell trying to obtain...

Are any of these previously mentioned cases, grippy? Like the OP, I'm looking for some protection, but I'd like a case that's very grippy (almost rubber-like), resists fingerprints, isn't so thick that it messes up wireless charging, and doesn't cover up the Nexus logo (everyone leaves the moto one intact, but covers up the Nexus! Heresy!) Any cases out there like that, or that a pipe dream?

Okay no spigen now haha, seen some horrible reviews.
Anybody try the versus slim case or the versus thor case?

I'd look at the ringke fusion. Looks good, relatively protective and better grip.

Thor isn't out yet. I have it ordered, but yet to receive it.

This case is amazing, buy it I guarantee you that you will be more than happy with this. I will be uploading a review for this case tonight on my youtube channel.

I got the cruzerlite and I have the i-blason armor box. Both are awesome. Cruzerlite for when I want it slim and i-blason when I want that otter box type of protection, and it's pretty nice for 9 bucks.

I saw that one, and actually ordered it last week. It's scheduled for delivery on Monday. I'll let everyone know what I think of it when it arrives.

What are your favorite cases for the Galaxy S6?

Now that the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is out and about, we're interested in learning what cases you're after (or currently using) to protect it from damage. It doesn't matter what style — flip cover, full body film, hybrid case or skin case — we want to know your favorites. Following this thread will be our "Best cases for the Galaxy S6 Edge" article that will encompass what our community has deemed worthy above the rest, so share your opinions because they matter!

Pelican Protector Case
I have the Pelican protector case specifically made for the S6 edge. While both the Pelican S6 and S6 edge cases fit my phone, the S6 case covered part of the edge notifications. The Pelican case is solid and lightweight, and most importantly, after a couple drops, my phone remains intact.

Does it reduce the mobile signal?

I like the Spigen Rugged Armor the most. Thin and has a nice feel in hand.

Spigen neo hybrid is great! I had the official samsung clear case which was nice but offered very little protection! The neo hybrid is great looking (some people may find it even adds to how the phone looks) Cut outs are done to perfection. Buttons work flawlessly despite being covered. It fits snug and feels solid as well! I honestly NEVER leave a case on . Anytime i buy a new phone i always buy a case and within a week i take it off because i just don't like the feel, the look , the bulk etc This is the first case i have ever bought that iam happy to leave on

im using this one : http://www.ebay.com/itm/Galaxy-S6-E...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item2ede69779b
and its really really good. i have dropped its 3 times, and nothing happend. really good product by spigen.

Nope, my signal is great!

Obliq Slim Meta Case
I am currently using the obliq slim meta case. Its relatively inexpensive $15 on amazon and it arrived in less than 4 days (im located in southern california; LA to be specific).
Its not so much for protection against drops but I love it because it protects that AWFUL camera hump and the lip on the front edge protects the screen if i were to place it face down.
super stylish as well. I cant post a link to it because i am a new member but its easy to find on amazon

Love this case!
I use the Urban Armor Gear and I love it! Dropped my phone many times and this case saved it many times! I like that its see thru and has a pretty nice design on the back. By far the best slimish case I've owned for a phone!

That case is great the only thing that pulls me away is indeed the price, I would love to try it. At the moment my favorite one is ringke slim

My favorite case is my still my first case and that is the Spigen Neo Hybrid!

Anyone run a very minimal case? I don't want to add heft. I usually just use a screen protector, but otherwise naked.

Obliq dual poly: $15 comes with 3 colored accents, and it looks great.
PS I can wirelessly charge with it on also

I run just a slickwrap skin. I got the Obliq for my wife and it is very minimal but I like the wrap with a screen protector better.

one more vote for ringke fusion

Shumuri slim extra for me, should get it soon

Ringke SLIM case is simply beauty. No more worried on fingerprint.

Spigen Neo Hybrid for me too. I really like it. Feels great. Tight fit. Raised just enough to set the phone down either way and not scratch the screen or camera. Looks great.

I have this case, not currently using it due to it having no grip, really slippery, but it does look nice.

Case that fits, adds protection and doesn't look too bad?

Sent in my phone because the charging port stopped working, and I'd like to buy a new case for my m8.
I am looking for something that looks decent and adds protection, with support for a tempered glass screen protectors.
I had a spigen case before this for a few months and the back is already scratched and looks very unappealing now.
Does anybody have recommendations?

I've always been a fan of UAG cases aka urban armor gear http://www.urbanarmorgear.com/.
Every so often they have specials going on as well.

I've been very happy with my Trident Aegis case. $20 on Amazon and offers excellent protection. I've dropped my phone several times and the case has held up well. I've had it nearly a year now with no issues.

This, I love my UAG case.

I have a ringke slim case black matte one from amazon... Been using it for a few months and works amazing! Catches mad oil though but one wipe and its clean

Otterbox symmetry
Check out the Amazon reviews.

I bought and reviewed 3 cases here in my post. I've since then ditched the dilex as it seems a bit bulky and have switched over to a black supcase unicorn beetle with a red body since i was replacing the usb/3.5mm board on my phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2728080 I hope that might be some help to you.

spigen hybrid. transparent, great materials, very strong

Yup, i think UAG has one of the nicest looking tough case out there.

What cases are you guys using for soft gold op3?

Just ordered mine. I suck at visualizing so idk what case to order. What cases are you guys using? Pictures would be helpful

I didn't order yet.
But I could imagine the golf Nillkin case would look nice. (if the gold color is a good one)
http://www.oneplus-shop.de/nillkin-frosted-shield-gold-oneplus-3.html

Oneplus Bamboo Case will fit it very well,
Here's mine :

Spigen Neo Hybrid and Rugged Armor cases, I'm constantly switching between the two from week to week. I think I like the Neo Hybrid a bit better, it seems that the plastic bumper 'ring' would give a bit more protection than just the Rugged Armor case alone, I think the cases are otherwise about the same in terms of material.

i bought the Poetic Affinity case Clear/Clear, so the phone has protection and show off the gold and beauty of the phone at the same time. it looks great, i don't have a picture of my phone by there are some on Amazon.

I'm using the Clear/Black Poetic Affinity Case which I got from Amazon UK. Fits very well and has excellent grip at the sides. Looks good as well.

Best Thin Cases

Has anyone tried some new thin cases? The Note 8 is a slim sexy phone. It sucks to put it in a thick bulky case. Show us what y'all have in thin cases.

I bought these 3
The first one was from Best Buy and I like it alot and its the one I use the most. Nothing fancy just a thin case TPU soft in the hands.
The second one I got off of eBay it's blue with a clear acrylic back. Don't get that one the cut out for the finger print scanner is to small. I cut it out some more to make it work. It's a ok case if you don't mind cutting it yourself.
The third one is from Ghostek it's 40 dollars it has a aluminum frame and a acrylic clear back. It's still a little thick for me but a damn well built case. I did not even use it I am going to sell this one.

I've used this on my s7e & Axon 7 and loved it. Bought it for my note 8. Should receive today. It is a thin case. I've dropped my s7e many times on concrete and it survived.

Yeah I had one of these on my V20.

I've bought a few cases across the last week.
I personally prefer the thin fit from spigen
It has a nice slightly rubberised hard finish and the case itself keeps the phone feeling nice and thin
Supports spigen screen protector and the awful glass one I've tried... I'm going to plunge and buy the dome glass protector so here's hoping that fits too

I was looking at that Spigen but I did not like the corners. How they have a crack in them. I thought more dust would get in and not as good drop protection.

It wouldn't be as good as the bigger cases but I don't think it would do that badly... Spigen make good cases.
Yeah the sides I don't really notice.. Its probably one of only types of case out currently like this, the rest are a little bigger and bulky

I have the Spigen Liquid Crystal case and it is pretty good.
However the Samsung Clear Cover Case is far superior and you don't even notice it is there

Something about clear cases that I don't like. On the sides it looks weird. I have a clear one but it's just clear on the back the sides are colored.

It fits with dome glass. Just got done installing mine. Lots of room.

I just bought like 3 more cases. When they get in I will tell yall about them. I have never bought as many cases for a phone in my life. I have been using my phone today without a case. Man it feels good to use this phone without a case. But I know one drop its gone. Also if you keep putting it down the back will get scratched up.

Ok here is two more that came in today. Both are so so.
The first on I got off of ebay. They made it sound like the end caps were metal. Which they are not they are cheap looking plastic. But it's ok
The second one I got from Amazon. I like it but don't think it has much drop protection. Thin thin thin.

I got the Spigen Neo Hybrid, I am very happy with it so far. The tpu layer is stiffer than most tpu layers I've used before, which feels nice, and the metal trim, while thin and a bit more pliant than I would prefer, looks great. Fortunately I haven't dropped it, but it feels like it would survive most reasonable falls. It's much thinner than my wife's otter box commuter and only $15 on amazon.

I got the Spigen ultra hybrid crystal clear case, and I live it. Have bought these before, they don't yellow and last a long time. Great for letting my dbrand Dragon skin show !!
