Good Cases for the Gnex?

[d14racer24]

How "flexible" is the Diztronic case? I really like the Incipio Feather cases (had one for my NS4G), and bought one for my G'Nex, but it simply does not fit. With my NS4G it came all the way around the sides of the phone and snapped firmly (came off pretty hard), but the one for my G'Nex doesn't come around and snap and comes off with very little effort. It did not say it was specifically for the SPH-L700 model, so I'm not sure if that is why it is like this.

The DBA Mesh cases are very good and the price was just reduced to $9.90.

They can all be found on the DBA Cases storefront on Amazon.

Amazon.com: DBA CASES: Cell Phones & Accessories

They fit the Sprint version very well.

i Picked up the Body Glove Revel during checkout on Sprint.com

Sprint - All Accessories


Probably just a starter for me. No top or bottom protection. All side buttons & side charger pins are open for access.

I like the fact its very slim, and light, and sturdy.

PS, the Sprint screen protectors are just rectangular, no full glass coverage even though they say 'specific fit for galaxy nexus', kind of a crock there.

May have to go glass nude and see. I hate screen protectors, they usually make the phone look less visually stimulating.

Is anyone here just not going the case/protector route and leaving their Nexus as it is?, that's what I did with my S 4G but looking to see if there are others like me.

too much additional bulk for me... coming from the Nexus S, the Galaxy is a much bigger footprint for me, adding bulk with this case would be a deal breaker.

Just me though..

The Gnex is too slippery to hold onto nekid. Wife originally tried some Qubit (sp?) cases which had fantastic grip, but fit poorly.

The Cruzerlite case has good grip, and as I said earlier, fits so well it feels almost like using the phone nekid.

The other good thing is that the cases provide a ridge which provides relief around the glass. Meaning that if you lay down the phone on a safe smooth surface the glass will not touch the surface.

Of course the Gnex's curve helps avoid having the glass come into contact with a flat surface but I still feel safer with a case.

Now I wish there were a belt clip that worked with the case.

Has anybody tried the Qmadix? I'm not a fan of the holster, but it looks like the case fits like the Incipio Feather is supposed to, which I like.

Another vote for the Otterbox Commuter (Mine didn't come with a screen protector, but I purchased a Zagg separately anyway.

Most days I don't mind the slight extra bulk. Like others, I find the nekkid Gnex slippery to hold on to (esp since I'm prone to sweaty hands).

However I'm also keeping an eye out for a decent TPU case, for the days I don't need the protection of the Commuter but want something a little grippier then the nekkid phone.

Another vote here for the Cruzerlite Androidified Case, works great. Its TPU, so it's exactly what you need also. At $10, it isn't that pricey either.

I got an OtterBox Defender case for about $30 on eBay. It comes with a built-in screen protector. Its not as bulky as some might think.

I'm looking to get the seidio kickstand case when the extended battery version comes out. If it was released already I would have ordered it before I got the phone. But it looks like I'LL be getting the phone first go figure.

I bought the otter box defender case and clip combo and I love it .makes the phone a lil bulky but worth it for the extra protection especially since I bought my gnex outright

Switched to the Incipio NGP case and really happy with this product.

I was using the Incipio Double case which is really nice but after purchasing a 2nd battery it became a bit of a pain on battery swaps. The new case works perfectly for my needs now

If anyone likes the Cruzerlite TPU case but wishes it had a holster, you can use the Seidio Surface Holster.
