It would seem that any case / dock that has audio out would need a way to tap into external speakers. For audio out, I connect via bluetooth to the car system. Previously I had a Jabra Freeway bluetooth speakerphone, it has one of the louder speakers for an in-car bluetooth speaker system.. but...

I've never liked using screen protectors. I prefer the screens naked so that nothing is taken away from smooth glass touch experience. I do use a case however, to protect from drops. Here's the video if you're bored or curious. Nexus 5 (gorilla glass 3) screen vs box cutter, xacto knife, coins...

Got the shipped email yesterday! Nov 10th. item: white 16GB Nexux 5 Ordered: Oct 31, 2013 7:13:35 PM CDT Estimated ship: Nov 22 if it matters: shipping to Portland, OR

This is my car mount for my nexus 4. It will work for my new nexus 5 as well. :) http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=079mZbQjuQE

Can't go wrong with RAM mounts. Maybe a RAM bike mount w/ the X-grip.

I'm on the road a lot (rental cars and such) so just wanted to share my $2 custom car mount. You don't always have to spend a lot of money to get something functional, low profile, and portable. Best of all, I can use the same mount for my Nexus 4 or iPad. Here's the youtube video: Custom...

I ordered the Kay's case with the "S" line in the back. It's black one and it has NO logo.

Just received the Kay's case from Amazon. Looks exactly like this (but in black).. I imagine they all get it from the same supplier from China or somewhere. Typical cheap plastic/rubber case, nothing special.. fit's snug enough though. Definitely does not look or feel as nice as the OEM bumper...

Chrome is fine.. but it feels so normal.. like a standard browser from a year ago. Just tried Dolphin and I like it much more.. has more modern features like gestures.

+1 to the RAM mounts and xgrip.

Ordered this one for the mrs until a nice flip case comes around. I'm personally going naked with bumper.

I'm on the other side of the river from you in Oregon City. Went to the grocery store earlier tonight prepping for Thanksgiving... decided to run a few tests. Getting about 15-17 down at bigger parts of town... and around 7-8 at home.

This is what I feel is the cause of most scratches as well (at least in these latest and greatest phones with gorilla glass). I went into the TMobile store to activate my Nexus4 (from a Blackberry Bold 9700... free sim, no charge btw).. and saw the Nexus4 display model. It looked beat up under...

I used the sharp razor end of the box cutter. Box cutter not sharp enough? There's no sound because there's no scratching. You need friction to hear the sound. The gorilla glass is harder than keys, boxcutter, coins so those things just glide across the surface. The only sound you hear is...

I agree. Was pleasantly surprised at how nice the bumper looks. Was expecting typical rubber bumper, but this one was actually designed well (at least aesthetically). Not sure how much it would protect a drop. Once you put on the bumper, it actually doesn't look like a bumper, looks sorta of...
