Cases that are supposed to protect the camera - Moto Z Play Accessories

This is important because the camera is raised and might be easily scratched.

Nillken TPU case, ebay looks like raised circle around camera

amazon.co.uk/dp/B01LEQTIOM/ref=pe_1909131_77697121_tnp_email_TE_AMZLdp_2 I received this case a few days ago, it has the all important raised ring around the camera, feels pretty durable without adding much bulk, certainly better than the 99p eBay cases I've bought for phone's in the past. It fits very tightly too which I'm happy with but could prove a bit annoying if you're planning to be removing it a lot to use Moto mods. It also has a cutout where the pins are for the Moto mods although I'm not sure what the point in this is seeing as they don't fit on top of it, all in all though I'm very happy with it, I got it in gold to match the metal sides and I don't think it looks too tacky either.

The bump was little big than the normal. Does the case helps to protect the bump??

Nillikin case has a hump to cover the camera completely

I got this a few days ago. Fits well, and has a little bump for the camera to keep it elevated slightly. Working great so far.

Hi there, I'm currently using one on my Moto Z. Check out the link below for the review.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/accessories/review-nillkin-frosted-shield-t3488773

To add to this, I've got a IVSO slim hard shell case (which I think is the same as the Nillken) that fits very well, is nice and grippy and has a raised lip to protect the camera
Button cutouts are fine too

Looks nice but unless I'm wrong that doesn't protect the camera at all.

I'm extremely surprised and pleased with the quality and presentation of this case. Plus it comes with 2. Highly recommended!

Nillkin TPU Case Review[i9023]

I was going to get the mercury case, but from pictures it was way too thick for my liking so I decided to get this case. The case is titled to be silicone, but it doesn't look like silicone from the pictures so I emailed them and they said it was silicone material so I went for it. I received the case and it turns out it was a TPU case. This case feels REALLY thin for a TPU case so it doesn't add much bulk to the phone. This case is tailored to fit the i9023 so ALL cutouts are perfect and fit is perfect as well. Overall, if your looking for a good TPU case which doesn't add much bulk to it I would recommend this. I don't have a mercury TPU case to compare it to, but I'm really happy with how this turned out. The only con that I would have for this case is that the volume rocker buttons were a bit tight so it would be easily be pressed, but if you stretch the case a little it will fix that issue.

I got this case from Here. It took exactly 2 weeks to arrive and customer service is spot on.
Nice. Would have gotten it if there wasn't a hard nilkin case.

TPU case with the dimple?

Are there any TPU cases out there with an indent or cutout for the dimple?

It's baffling that case manufactuers don't respect the dimple. They made a cutout for every thing else, but forgot to include the dimple! That dimple is a game changer.

Is it really? I have never, ever touched that dimple. Never held it in a way that feels natural to touch the thing. If I just "force" to put my finger in there, it feels like I'm loosing some grip, compared to where the way I usually hold it (finger almost at the height of the camera lens... actually, the most natural way for me i exactly at the height of the lens... which as you may see, is quite inconvenient).
This case has the indent for the dimple.

Something's up with that. I was looking at the Incipio DualPro Shine case the other day, and noticed that the picture on AT&T's site had a cutout for the batwing but the final version on Incipio's site did not. Is Motorola asking case manufacturers to hide the dimple or batwing?
AFAIK the only other M4DE cases with dimple cutouts are the incase ones sold on Googorola's site...

i have that s-line case... got it from this ebay auction http://www.ebay.com/itm/25132519854...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
under $3!
it fits great and feels no worse than any other tpu case. if anything the edge parts have a rough textured molding for better grip.

I also got the S-Line case along with this Hyperion one:
http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Motorola-Protector-Compatible-Packaging/dp/B00CXM3RCQ/
I prefer the Hyperion case. The feedback is a little better on the power button and volume rocker. Plus, the smoke color looks great.

actually after seeing this post, i am debating also getting the "supcase" one. i just think it looks cool. and yeah the buttons on the s-line are a little small and thing. they work, but i'm guessing better could be had. i dont know im not ocmplaining much for $3. i'm not so thrilled with the s-line design either, so debating either a supcase or an incipio feather....

I got it with a code with amazon prime , so it came pretty quite as we always can have from amazon .
This is a decent alternative to some of the Otterbox cases. It reminds me a lot of the Defender series but cost only 9 dollars , even it is not exactly works as better as otter box
The outer shell is a nice shock resistant material. You shouldn't have to worry if you drop your phone if it's wrapped in this.The inner silicone is a little bit soft , which will absorb the impact , but it might be not as snag as you want ,all in all it is acceptable totally .
The buttons work really well when you have it in this case. They line up nicely and work with little effort.
The port cover is okay. It's nothing great. It's not a tight fit like the otter box it. Overall, it's better than nothing.
I'd be happier using a case with a screen protector
For the money. This is a great little cast that will protect your phone.
A good solid phone case, a few minor issues keep it from being a great phone case. Case did require a minor modification to allow the gesture and double tap wake up/screen unlock to work properly on the m8. There was a little piece of the cases screen protector that covered the light sensor, once cut off from the inside of the case with an exacto knife the gesture function worked flawlessly.
Pros
Much easier to hold onto than the slick finish of the m8
Makes it easier to press the side and top buttons
Case has a rugged feel to it
Looks awesome on the phone
Belt Clip is so handy
Cons
Does add a little bulk to the phone, mostly to the thickness
Very slightly alters the sound of the phones speakers,not very noticeable, but I am an audiophile
.
Overall I would recommend this case to a friend.
I am not associated with any company , my reviews are based on my personal experiences
For this case , i got it from amazon ,at http://www.amazon.com/Ashiled-All-N...TF8&qid=1420378820&sr=1-1&keywords=ashield+M8
Please give me thanks , if you like me ,thank you for your reviews

Is there a built in screen protector? If not, how does it affect the speakers? EDIT: Never mind. But does it look like it'd be easy to remove the screen protector?

Tech21 Cases

Tech21 doesn't seem to get a lot of attention in this group. I'm just wondering what everyone thinks. I have an Evo Check for my phone and it is a great case. Fits well and seems like it would protect the phone. Still, I also want a folio type case, to protect the screen. Tech21 has this case: https://www.tech21.com/en_us/evo-wallet-galaxy-note8-black
Does anyone have any experience with it that would tell me whether it would be a good or bad purchase?
Their cases are too slippery and they make so few cases for the Note 8 I over look them. Quality is crap for how much they cost

Yes, they are quite expensive.

I hope this information helps. I also wanted a folio type case to protect the cover as all the screen protectors seem to be pretty lacking. I went with my wife to the T-Mobile store where she wanted to get an S8 Plus and this case that you picked out was close to what she got. Was given a drop test by the cashier using his own phone. The packaging was pretty plain and I wasn't that impressed but wanted to get in and out and we got it. After checking it out after she had it a few weeks I went ahead and ordered the one that you pasted a link for above. Honestly I recommend it. Pretty sturdy and thin but protects the phone quite nicely. has a clip clasp and obviously covers the front. Not bulky but not skimpy either... My fourth case for the note lol and this one is a keeper.. Go for it.

I use the Tech21 EVO as it fits with the Dome Glass protector I have. This is my first Tech21 case but the version I got is not slippery at all due to the back.

Looked into that. Its a nice case, but that clasp needs to be magnetic or something, I found the plastic push-in clasp to be cumbersome to open and close quickly.

My s5 it has a tech 21 case has 3 years old and it fel so many times. It is an impressive piece of engenering, just the sound it makes when it its the floor...it sounds muted like it is made from ruber.
Off course i would get a tech 21 for my note 8, choose the evo wallet because ...such a big screen ...
It is very expensive.
they are not slepery unless one has spider hands!
I wish they made a case that completly isolates the phone, and another one so that i can put the phone on my bikes like rokform does.
I am very happy with my evo!

Q: Tech21 Evo check case

Was wondering if the above mentioned case has a slight sticky tacky feel to it which I like.?
I remember the Tech21 Mesh series ones on older Samsung devices had a wonderful slight tacky sticky feel to thier edges of the cases. Thanks.

I think it was the Mesh series Tech21 I had for the S7 , edges were orange colored and had a slight sticky tacky feel to it.

I've been using this case since day one. I tried a few others, but keep coming back to it. It's a great case. I'm not sure about tacky, but it is not slick. I've never even come close to dropping my phone.
Just one word of warning. My wife got the white Evo Check, and the white yellowed pretty quickly. We just threw it away and got a cheap case on Amazon for her. My black case is still in perfect shape.

I primarily use a leather type folding case on the N8, but have tried a few regular cases which I find in all honesty uncomfortable to hold for long.
I find the edge tpu plastic or whatever it is hard to the touch. Was hoping to find a case that has soft compressible sides. The skins are soft and pliable but the edges are too thin for protection.

Note8 Tech21 evo check users, can help see if your case inside edge facing screen near top of power button is there a small extra protruding bit? Wondering if mine is defective. Thanks. Mine is black case, also tell me if yours is black or white.
