I received this case the other day and wanted to share my review I posted over at XDA.
I haven't seen much about this case on the forums. I thought people might enjoy a review of another option. This is the the Boxwave Unicolor in frosted white that I received from Amazon.
You can purchase the case from amazon.com or boxwave.com for 16.95 with free shipping.

UniColor Samsung Galaxy Nexus Case - Triple play protection for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
The case is made of two different materials. The rim/bumper is made of a gloss TPU material. This is the what constitutes the color (frosted white) of the case. It does wrap the front of the phone, creating the lip for lay flat/facedown protection. The back is made of "see through" matte hard plastic. The pictures on the website are kind of deceiving as far as the back appears. It's doesn't seem as see through as it actually is. Hopefully the pictures I put up are a better representation of this. I actually like the effect, the hyperskin of the back door shows through and from straight on it almost looks as if there is no back cover at all. The hard plastic is thick and rigid enough to expect good protection.
I am using a Verizon LTE Galaxy Nexus and it fits very well with the standard battery door. The case does not add much thickness to the phone in my opinion. It is actually much tougher (but not too tough) to remove than other standard tpu cases, which I think lends credence as to how well this case fits. All of the cutouts are spot on. In regards to using this case with an extended battery door you will notice a squishy feeling on the bottom third of the sides, but the the lip of the case still wraps around the screen. I'm personally using the standard battery door with the extended battery and it fits in the case perfectly.
I do feel that the case is of good quality and will protect the phone as well and perhaps better than a diztronic or cruzer tpus case due to the hard plastic back. The buttons are standard tpu feel and are fairly easy to press, and to me are easy to find by touch. I personally like my buttons to be covered due to wear that I've had on previous phones where the buttons were exposed.
Overall I think the case is a nice option and something a little different than the cases that have been reviewed here already. The only real complaint I may have is the seam around the edge of the phone on the TPU, but thats fairly standard among these types of cases. It may be a bit over priced at 16.95 but I'm not regretting the purchase. Please ask questions, I'll try my best to answer them.
