Hello, anybody has both cases? How are they compared with each other?

Could any Gumdrop Hideaway Case user please let us know the weight? Thanks.

1.1 pounds according to Amazon..
i bought it.. it's pretty heavy once fitted... but i'm liking it...

Thanks. I am interested in the one in white color. Does it get dirty easily?

I got the white one... 3 months already.. Still clean with kids playing on it and stuff... One thing though.. The plastic screen may impact the screen... See a review on Amazon. I'm using pen most of the time. So no issues... Nothing you can't live with. You could of course remove the plastic cover and get another protector..

Thanks for the experience. I read that many users removed the plastic cover. Are you able to get the real weight of the case with and without the cover?

yeah i want that battery case but its not out yet.
the case i have is clear ad you cant really tell its on the phone. its just a clear case. has a tacky feel to it and its flexible, not plastic like the dx-box plastic case i had for the htc one.

No, but it's always good to have a replacement in case you run out of juice and are away from AC. If you leave home for a few hours and have about 30% you're forced to recharge anyway because obviously, 30% won't suffice to fill in a few hrs, unless phone is on standby most of the time.
Incipio
Hyperion tpu until a case like the below comes out for it. :fingers-crossed: Then I will put on a glass protector and xtreme guard on the back. Schweeeet!

I've never had a bumper case on any of my phones; do they actually protect anything?
thanks
Normal thin .7mm bumper will protect from dings and scratches. The bumper I posted above can be abused and not hurt the phone. Keep in mind it doesnt protect glass or back. Thats why I go with tempered glass and xtreme back.

are there decent tempered glass protectors for this guy yet?
I feel like a N00b; what is an extreme back?
thanks

Sorry. Xtreme Guard backing. It's a knockoff version of Zagg that is IMO (I have used a lot of them) exactly the same. They always have a discount code that takes 85-90% (yes, really) off the price with free shipping so trying one out is worthwhile.
thanks, I hate Zagg on my screen, its so orange peely and slows down finger swiping, but I do like to put that kind of stuff on the back and sides, when I don't feel like a case, but want to protect the phone. Do you know if they make a back and side kit, or do you have to buy the entire phone package?
I'm not a big fan of wet applications, but for the back and sides its not too bad
thanks!

With 80% off the whole front and back kit will be like $2.

More Cases for the Nexus 6

There's also this: https://www.pure-gear.com
The slim shell, fits, looks, and feels great. At least as good as the ringgke fusion, if not a little better.
why nexus 6 not have smart case ??
I have the armorbox and it's pretty awesome! Great protection very Otterbox defender like.

I don't know if this would work for you, but the Ringke Fusion has a clear back, and includes a template for you to print your own designs for the back. You could have the most kawaii back ever if you find a decent picture and print it off to the specs necessary.
I found http://www.skinit.com/create-your-own. But No for nexus 6!
I think I should wait!
I don't have any pics of the case on the phone but I can tell you the fit is 100%. The built in screen protector is nice and clear and doesn't drag when you touch it. The port covers close great and don't flap or open unexpectedly. The power/volume buttons are easy to press and are distinguishable. I honestly don't have a single complaint .

I'm actually curious as to whether you could cut the clear back out of this one and make an edge only bumper out of it.
I don't know, maybe but i don't know if it would stay on the phone after.
I like the Armorbox a lot. I use it for work or when I go to the gym. Its nice and grippy on all four sides due to the slighty rubbery texture. I took the screen protector off because i have a glass one. Ive already dropped my phone back side down on a hardwood floor and the case took it like a champ.

Could you get a pic of the inside of the outer shell where the buttons are? I bought a Supcase Heavy Duty but it made horrible contact with the buttons on the N6. I had to be very deliberate with my presses to get them to work. I ended up returning the case but I have attached an image of my old Trident case for my Moto X showing what I mean. Thanks.

Nexus 6 Metal Case / Bumper

When will we get something like these? http://www.gadgetmac.com/news/tag/aluminum-iphone-5-case
They look so good!
I would really love one!!!
Same here. It cant be too hard, someone made one for the nexus 5 that you were able to 3d print at home and assemble it, i made it myself at school amd it looked really good! From there to it being printed on metal was a small step for a big company :/... I beleive the same can be done for the nexus 6
This not metal,...but is a true bumper. Might want to check out the colors. I got an orange one. Waiting for it. Will take pics.

If you mean protection from scratches, any TPU gel case is good.
I have bought this one.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Transparent...hash=item4d339321db:m:mlMmzxGypfVuz8E6a1cHtnQ
After few month, it become a little bit yellowish, but it's still fine.
In addition, you can buy a tempered glass LCD protector to make your screen scratch proof.

I'd like to know ideas for this. My screen is a lint magnet and I'm concerned that eventually some is going to get in the hinge. A pouch would be a nice idea.

Yes it will be a good idea to protect the $2000 phone which can easily get damaged.

I bought some sunglass microfiber pouches for a couple dollars on amazon. Works great...mildly inconvenient to deal with, but good for piece of mind.

Not bad at all. I picked up a Nintendo DS microfiber pouch from a Diaso here in Japan. Been working great, before that I was using the glasses pouch a pair of Gunner glasses I got came in. It's been helping a lot with minimizing lint and debris
I use mine in the Spigen Thin Fit Case (as it has better camera protection) and it ain't bulky. I then carry it around in a Shocksock Neoprene pouch. It's a nice snug fit.

As there seem to be no screen protectors available for the front, I just got a Forefront Galaxy S10+ protector and cut it to fit. I also used a Galaxy S10 rear camera protector which I cut down.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07QTYYZSH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It's nice to have almost full protection. Shame that cases that cover the spine aren't out yet.
If anyone is interested, I have a brand new fitBag in black color Napa leather made to specifically fit the Samsung Galaxy Fold. If interested please PM me.

**Update - SOLD
I've been using a neoprene pouch for my phones ever since I got one included with the Nexus One several years ago. I usually have a protective case on the phone too.
I get them from ebay and they are relatively cheap. I just took a look now and the type I use isn't available for the fold, but there is one with a flap and carabiner. It's what I would buy if I had a fold.

I have mine in the official Samsung leather case, which I then also slide into a Shocksock pouch. That pouch is such a good fit, it's hard to imagine it wasn't manufactured especially for the Fold. The price is right, too.
I got a shock sock from Amazon for mine, made of neoprene, it will provide some drop protection, again mildly inconvenient to use but worth it for the price. Keeps pocket lint away from the device and is splash proof
