thinnest case available?

[KA1OTE]

KA1OTE, thanks for the review. Nice write up.
I could be wrong, but I think that the 64 GB does not have the Verizon logo on it whereas the 32GB does.

More than welcome. I actually decided to cut and paste my review and put it on Amazon. lol
I just created a new thread about this very topic.
I've seen plenty of 32GB Turbo BN phones without the logo.. turns out VZW didn't add them to the BN (32GB or 64GB) version at first. So those who got one of those Turbos in the first batch around release time, they don't have the logo.

i received the J&D case and i really like it.

reminds me of the incipio feather i had for my droid maxx.

does not offer a lot protection but i like the minimalist approach and clearly this is the thinnest case on the market for this phone.

i purchased the diztronic and returned it as that case is significantly thicker but obviously offers more protection.

i do wish the J&D had a better grip but overall i like it and would recommend it if you are looking for a minimalistic case.

I agree. Now I have 2 Diztronic cases that I'm never going to use. What color J&D did you get?

How bright is the red? I have the red Diztronic, but thought the color was a little bit too bright red. If the J&D is a little more subdued I might be interested in getting one.

it is a "wine red".

not too bright.

my phone is red and and seems to compliment the red phone well.

not bright at all.

i had the red diztronic and it was an awful match to the red phone.

like you said, it was too bright.

see attached pics for how the red J&D case matches the red phone.

Thanks for the pictures. Looks like it matches almost exactly.

yes it is pretty close.

good match.

update on the J&D case.

had it for only 2 weeks about and it is already starting to peel on the on side near the buttons.

You get what you pay for.

 

[lgbalfa]

it is not even that cheap the cost.

about the same as the diztronic.

Most of these thin cases are in that 7 to 10 dollar range. So far no problems with mine and I have had about as long.

 

[teeitupmo#WN]

Diztronic cases are fine but cheap. All the 8-$10 cases less the quality feel of the Turbo, HTC M7/M8, and iPhone. With the exception of Rearth Rinke cases. The cheap feel of some Samsung devices..the 8-10 cases don't make the phone feel cheap any more so, then they already do. My 2 cents

Yes, I got the J&D case (see my comments above) and still love the looks, but I thought to myself that if anything chips it will be the cutout around the buttons. Its vulnerable to nails, rings, placing phone in cup holder in car, etc. On the other hand the price is so reasonable, stock up and replace every few months or when it bothers you

i decided to mail this case back for a refund as it might be defective after only a few weeks.

i still love the form factor of the case and ordered 2 before so now i will use the other one.

good thing for a backup.

My blue one still looks like new. Maybe you got a bad one?

that is what i am thinking that i got a bad one considering yours is still perfect.

i am using my brand new red case now so hopefully that will remain in good shape.

i actually like the red case better than the black for my red phone.

I've been trying to talk myself into spending another $9 on the red case. I'm about to spend $30k on a second car, but I don't want to spend $9 on a second phone case.

 

[dcallan]

Don't spend $30,000 on a second car. The red case? Go ahead and splurge. You don't need a second car. Moreover, not one that costs $30,000.
