Galaxy Nexus Incipio Silicrylic case Review

[dgo11]

How much of a factor is the dust? Would a gray case actually help ease some of the dust issues?

@FishPharm - are you also using the extended battery with the Feather? I've had the damn thing in my Amazon cart for 3 days now, afraid to pull the trigger and wondering if it will work with the extended battery and its cover.

Wondering the same ^^

I bought this case too. Looks pretty sharp on the phone, and while I haven't dropped the phone "yet", I think it'll survive a fall. My only problem is it seems to be a major dust/lint magnet!

I agree, I got the case when I got my phone, went on pretty much right away. The case doesn't add much bulk at all and seems like a nice case. I carried it in my front pocket of my blue jeans that weekend and the rubber part collected lint like crazy! Took off the case to clean off the lint and the naked phone just felt awesome, so the case never went back on LOL

I had the Otterbox Commuter for my Fascinate and I liked it. It was a lint magnet as well but it was harder to wipe off the lint. I didn't like the how the plastic piece was slippery. Also the silicon part of the case was very loose fitting.

The Incipio Silicrylic has a awesome rubberized texture on the plastic piece. It really reminds me of the coating that Seidio utilizes. Also the lint wipes of easily unlike the Otterbox and the silicon piece fits tightly. My GNEX feels really good with the case. The Incipio is a combination of a Seidio and Otterbox. I love how it has a rubberized texture and silicon protection.

I have same case i love it. I never got a case for my phone but after the bionic i bought this and the vzw screen cover. The sales guy did the same thing brought out a stack i reached for otterbox but it was just was to bulky. Looked at silicone just to tacky. I saw the inciopo and liked it phone feels so great. I also have extended battery this case fits so good. Oh guess what google wallet google beam and nfc works with out removing it.

Is there a holster that fits this case? I love the case itself but can't live without a holster.

 

[Fable]

My standard Verizon Holster (fit my Bionic with TPU extended case) is a little too small for this case. If I could find one I would be really happy. I don't use a holster much these days, but when I want one it would be nice to have the option.

I didn't see it mentioned anywhere. Does this case come with a kickstand?

They do provide a little stand for the phone sit vertical and horizontal. Its just not part of the case.

That stand is a joke they should have been shot for including it

The Black one is definitely a dust magnet. the holster combo pack from verizon looks good but doesnt give all around protection.

 

[NorCalStorm]

Better than nothing lol. But yeah i know what you mean

That stand is a joke they should have been shot for including it

Does anyone have this case in a different color? If so, how is it regarding lint?

I have the black, and like other people have said, it's a lint magnet.

 

[belniente]

I have the pink on pink one from Verizon and I haven't noticed too much lint - a little, but not much. Granted, I mostly slip it inside a sleeve too since I'm paranoid about hurting this thing, but I've had it in just the Incipio case in my black sweater pouch and gotten surprisingly little lint on it (the sleeve is a much bigger lint attractor lol).

 

[samkatz]

The lint builds up on the rubbery parts on the edge and I guess it will show up less on the gray case, but it will still be there. I always carried my smaller phones on a belt clip and am now using the holster for the gnex+incipio.

I got the white and gray case from the Verizon store. Worst idea ever. It doesn't really collect lint but the white hard shell is already dirty and discolored.

 

[samkatz]

I'd trade it back for the all black.

 

[elir41]

@bel I saw that pink one in the store. I was aiming for a white and grey one, but all they had was the black one.

I'm not a pink kinda guy...haha!

That's the one I originally wanted to get. I guess it was good that i went with the black one then.
