Oh. Ballistic isn't that difficult to take off as well. Seems easiest to start with the top left. Also, it doesn't collect as much dust as I thought it would. I highly recommend it. Black/white case looks nice too.

I'm probably not gonna get a concensus on this answer but if I was just looking for the case with the best lip curving on top of the screen a bit, which would it be? Preferably a relatively minimal case, (not like a Supcase Heavy Duty or OtterBox Defender) but I just don't want it to be too cheap/weak/flimsy.
The casemate Gelli case has a pretty good lip and it's very minimal. Also the Naked tough is very protective while also being minimal. It's bigger than the Gelli case though.
Those are the only cases I have. Hopefully some other people can chime in.
Thanks for your response. Have you tried the Supcase Unicorn Beetle by any chance?
Wow. A picture really is worth a thousand words. Stopped the whole tpu clear case quest right in its tracks. That thing looks horrible. Thanks for the pic.

LOL, it's an eight-dollar case for a $500+ phone. If it gets "yellow", toss it and get a new one.
You're welcome. I have not tried the unicorn beetle, but other people around here seem to really like it.

I generally don't use a case on my phones, but I'm tired of breaking them so I started. I guess that means that's my philosophy too.

Hope you ordered the right one. This is the Moto X 2014 forum and your picture and link is for a 2013 model.

Has anyone found a "slim rubberized hard plastic" case for the 2014 Moto X ala the Rearth Ringke Slim case?
I have the Ringke Slim on my Nexus 5 and I absolutely love it. I ordered two TPU cases (i-Blason and Diztronic) with my phone, but I found that while it is better than nothing, I really dislike the feel of the TPU material.

I'd like to know this as well. I absolutely adored my Ringke Slim on my iPhone 5. Super thin, super cheap case that grips like a champ.

I have a Bear Motion and a Zizo case on the way (arriving Monday). hopefully one of those two match their "rubberized hard snap-on" description.

If you want something like the Ringke Slim for your 2014 Moto X then the Bear Motion Ultra Slim is probably the closest to it you're going to find. The fit is nearly identical to the Ringke, but the texture is a bit more coarse (almost like fine grit sandpaper) where the Ringke is smoother and relies more on the rubbery feel for grip. I prefer the look and feel of the Ringke, but the Bear Motion Slim is a close second.
I'm not quite as crazy about the Zizo. Its design offers more protection and as a result isn't quite as sleek as the Bear Motion Slim. It is more of a smooth hard plastic, sacrificing the grip slightly compared to the Bear Motion. I ordered the orange version and I don't know if the texture will vary with the color. Regardless, I'd still use the Zizo over either of the TPU cases I received and will keep it around in case I want more protection or a more visible case.

Correct, the Hula bumper is a "bumper" case, meaning it only covers the sides. I bought one and returned it. Though it did feel thick enough to protect the corners from a good drop, it didn't do anything for the front or back of the phone. It also felt cheap and flimsy enough that I bet it would break if you switch cases often, it didn't feel like it would stand up to being removed and put back on frequently. I bought a "Supcase" with a frosted/clear back from Amazon, and this case works very well, still allows me to see my bamboo back.
