Cases, Bumpers?

[Roosterman]

Originally, I had the Tudia case. It works but causes problems with the screen protector I bought, https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B074V1SK65/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. I have since ordered and received a clear case, https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07844Y9NQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 which includes a glass screen protector. The screen protector doesn't cover the whole screen, so haven't used it.

The clear case I have fits well and all the cut outs are well done. Also, the back is thinner which I like. I felt the Tudia was too thick causing some issues with the finger print scanner for me. The clear is nearly as responsive as when I didn't have a case. The best part about the clear case is it has stopped the issue with the screen protector. There is no new damage to the protector, just the damage left over by the Tudia.

The one big downside of the clear case is the responsiveness of the buttons. This case is a bit stiff causing the need for extra pressure to activate the power and volume buttons. Still looking for the perfect clear case, but I like this one better than the Tudia.

As for the Glass Screen Protector - waiting on Moshi's Ion Glass for the Essential Phone PH-1. https://www.moshi.com/moshicom-ionglass-screen-protector-essential-ph-1#black-clear-glossy

I have purchased all of their glass screen protectors for my Note 4's and Iphone 7 - no issues very high quality - no bubbles and very easy placement

Which Tudia case? There are several.

This one:

I know this thread is about cases, but if anyone is interested in a holster the Turtleback Samsung S7 leather holster fits the Essential phone perfectly.

Interesting. I'll be curious to hear what people have to say about it. THE biggest problem with cases is being able to have a good screen protector in the mix. Good grief, it seems impossible with this phone.

The Tudia gray case just arrived here in China and I really HATE IT! It is ugly to the hilt. My gf commented, "That makes your expensive looking phone appear cheap." Yeah, I agree. But it was the only case that I could get shipped here. It'll do until I can get some clear cases sent over by family as a care package. I ordered two. The Incipio and a similar looking one from an eBay seller.

Using OEAGO bumper case with ORZERO screen protector. Good fit.
