Re: Honor 8 cases and covers?

I ordered one of these and it sucked (don't buy, it will block your signal). The box was really nice though. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01L53YDUS

Just ordered a clear Nilkin case, I need something more protective than the free Honor case.

Re: Honor 8 cases and covers?

See, I wouldn't even call that a bumper case since it's got a back covering. To me, "bumper" means it just covers the sides of the phone and not the back. :/

But good luck to you! Hope you like it and it works well for you.

I agree. A bumper should have no back

That was not the same one I put a link in for, but thanks for the heads up.

Sorry, that wasn't mean to be a direct reply to your purchase. Just throwing it out there to anyone to anyone who is looking for a case.

Dpham, yeah that was me. I'm one of those who doesn't really review a product unless I'm really happy/dissatisfied. In this case (womp womp) I was not happy- mostly trying to give would-be buyers a heads up. The seller emailed me right away and offered to ship out any other case I wanted... But everything was a lesser value and not really appealing. Thumbs up for reaching out to their customers though.

Re: Honor 8 cases and covers?

I got a Terrapin TPU case which fits it just fine but doesn't show the awesome Sapphire Blue color so the hunt for a good case is on. Also I have some tempered glass screen protectors from Amazon. I plan to install the screen protectors tomorrow.

Re: Honor 8 cases and covers?

I got my clear nillkin nature case today. It has good grip and feels good in the hand. It meets flush to the front of the phone, so there's no lip to protect the screen. Fits with tgsp on the front and back. Also, has dust plugs for the headphone jack and USB c port, if you're into that ... I didn't know it would have the dust plugs, might get annoying

Can the plugs be removed?

Can the plugs be removed?

With a box cutter, probably.

That's kind of a bummer about the lip. I'm indifferent about the plug things. Do you think you'll stick with it?

Re: Honor 8 cases and covers?

I doubt I'll use it forever, but I can't find anything better for sale, so I'll use it for now.

Would it look clean though?

Re: Honor 8 cases and covers?

Definitely not. The flap wraps behind the phone and goes up the back a little bit. You could cut it at a perfect straight edge but the hole would look weird.

I'm going to pull the trigger on the Huawei Blue case tomorrow.

Here's how my Terrapin TPU case looks like.

Re: Honor 8 cases and covers?

Right now I'm using the Honor 8 PC case (the one that only protects the corners and back), but I've ordered the SPARIN case from Amazon https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01IT1O99O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 to try.

Re: Honor 8 cases and covers?

Anyone notice that the 3rd party cases for the H8 are off with regard to the fingerprint sensor? Of the few cases I have tried they all seem to not be centered around the sensor. Wonder if the spec they were given was updated?

I have ordered this set as well.

Is it an isolated incident or multiple cases from different sources?
