Looking for a good rubber case, even if just for the back and sides. The 2 piece full cover cases seem to make it a challenge when using the volume keys. Atleast that is what I have been seeing in photos, especially from ebay.
Also have any of you noticed how easily the silver / platinum colored camera bezel scratches on an OEM battery cover? This is my 2nd HD and both got scratched in the lower right corner if you are facing the main camera.
I just got the Capdase case and I love it. Very slim and offers good grip but not too much.

I'm looking for good Cases at the moment too. Just ordered a few different models on ebay. I'll share my experiences as soon as they arrive (could take some weeks )

Mike, are the buttons ( power n volume ) easily accessed? $20 USD for a rubberized case tells me there should be more quality with this one ( which is a good thing )
The power and volume buttons are raised and put exactly where they need to be. You will have no problems with them.
Mike
Ordered one and will post when received

I received this case today. It's pretty nice for the price, does not feel like a typical silicone case. It is not as tight on the phone but it does fit quite well.
The Spigen Ultra Hybrid case is well constructed like all of their other products. The case features a clear back and TPU bumper. Spigen claims that the back panel has a scratch resistant coating, which I found not be very effective. I have had the case on my phone for about 4 days now and there are noticeable scratches on the back already. Other than that big pitfall, the case is great. There isn’t a lot of added bulk to it, and it looks nice on the phone. The case itself is very slippery with the TPU giving you minimal grip. I am happy with the appearance of the case, but I might have to contact Spigen about their claims that it has a ‘scratch resistant coating’. I did not notice any difference compared to a regular clear plastic case which scratches just as easily.
Now we move onto the Spigen Slim Armor case. As with their other slim armor cases this one does in fact add some bulk to the phone. The feel is nice, but the edge where the plastic back meets the TPU has a sharp feel to it that I did not experience on my Note 3’s slim armor case. The one nice feature is the large cut out for headphones and the small TPU above the volume buttons that prevents your finger from sliding onto the camera lens. This case will more than likely be my daily driver because it protects the phone rather well.
Both of these cases feature a small 0.1mm lip that keeps your screen off whatever surface you may rest it on. This of course is assuming that you place your phone face down. The cases also accommodate the Spigen Nano tempered glass screen protector as can be seen in my pictures. I hope that Spigen continues to improve their products and comes up with a better coating to resist scratches on their Ultra Hybrid cases.

Are you referring to the case or Nova Launcher? It isn't that big of a case, but yes it does "rape" the original design to an extent.

Yeah, its unfortunate, but its better than a broken phone. I put "mini" in the title because its not a extensive review. The case models are Ultra Hybrid (the clear one) and Slim Amror (the blue one) for clarification.

Thing about hybrid cases is the softer inside cases starts loosing shape if you have a phone that gets a lille hot. It happens with my neo hybrid on the s4.. Just under the camera where the processor sits there's a bulge. Its because it gets hot near that area and now the back isn't flush but has a bulge and let's dust in through the camera cutout. So instead of protecting my phone the back cover is now scratched to bits. But the g3 slim armor case doesn't look like it will have that problem as the back plate covers most the back.

Any info they will make a version without antena hole ?
Just received email from Spigen
They probably will make the not-with-hole version
Supcase makes the same case as this, without the antenna cutout. Based on another user's feedback on one he got for his g3, they have a great fit. They also have good reviews for their other cases on amazon. I ordered one in clear/gray.

Is the lip enough high to protect the screen of G3?
Does the ultra hybrid case have the scratches resistance?
And....I saw the post that Spigen have some plans to make the case without antenna outlet.

It is supposed to but due to the lg g3 being rounded it can't have feet to prevent scratches. Thus it scratches very easily o have tried 2 of them just in case the first was defective , but both scratch easily.

Yes it's the standard lip spigen has for all of the cases (neo hybrid, slim armor etc...) Its plenty to protect the screen.

Not sure where to post this, but here it is. So I've seen this question around, because I had the same question. But was wondering if Spigen had a US version of their Slim Armor case (no cut out for the antenna) for the LG G3. From pictures and information I've seen I didn't really see much. But I went ahead and ordered one off amazon anyway because I liked the design. I just received it in the mail today and opened it up, and found that it's a US version. It does not have the antenna cut out. Needless to say I was ecstatic, and figured I would post this for anyone needed such a case.

If you're looking for a transparent case then look into Spigen Ultra Hybrid or Ringke Fusion.
Ringke Fusion is not shipping until next week though. I'm using the Ultra Hybrid, I like the colors and its a nice case. Although I think I'd like the buttons to be separated so it'd be easier to see which key is what.
I have decided on the spigen slim armor in gunmetal. Sadly I dont have my nexus 6 yet but the case looks and feels awesome. I just fear that the vertical stand will break after a while but thats just a guess...
Ringke by far is my favorite just because the buttons are made a little better then the spigen.
I have been quite happy with the spigen slim armor. Mine has none of the QC issues the Amazon reviews have mentioned. My kickstand has never fallen out and I don't know how it ever could with the phone in the case. I think most of the overly negative reviews on the kickstand were from people who reviewed it before they even had the phone. The phone fits perfectly and is easy to get out. The one issue I do have with it is the flat buttons. It is virtually impossible to know which button you are about to press without looking which is kind of annoying. If they modify that I will buy a new one. I'd be happy if the Slim Armor had the button of the neo hybrid.
I used one of those slim Ringke cases on my nexus 5 and it scratched the corners of my phone when I removed it so I'll never use that brand again. I know this phone is different so maybe that's no longer an issue but once is enough for me.
Edit - I see you said you want a transparent case. That means my comments can be disregarded, lol...

Agreed and the buttons on the N6 are separated which prevents miss taps, its still not available for sale yet though. Using the Ultra Hybrid for the time being. Not sure how I feel about the caps on the N6 ports for the Fusion, they didnt use to have them.
Ringke for cases definitely. I have both for the N5 and for the N4 and Ringke does feel slimmer and very well made.
Spigen for Screen Protectors.
I ordered the Ringke Fusion Crystal
Pics of Spigen Ultra Hybrid with Spigen Ultra Crystal Screen Protector
I'm sure by now you've already obtained your case, though I thought I'd post some pictures of the Spigen (Crystal Clear) Ultra Hybrid along with a Spigen Ultra Crystal Screen Protector.
As you can see, it shows off the device, but still achieves maximum protection. The Case is a hard shell on the back, and soft rubber along the sides. Both are clear.
I haven't had any issues with the buttons on the case. If anything, the button placement on the actual phone will take some getting used to, though they are situated halfway down for a reason.
Enjoy!
P.S. These pics were taken from my iPhone 5S. Unfortunately.....
how is he mic hole placement. i have been thinking about buying one of these. it just all the reviews don't talk about making calls with the case on. it almost looked like the case covered up some of the mics.

I am using this case right now and really enjoy it. No issues with QI, NFC and it offers great protection for the minimalistic design. Case is very sturdy and fits like a glove. The only small gripe I have with it is the buttons. While they are very tactile it is very difficult to distinguish power from volume. Other than that its great.
I did order the ringke fusion, which is the basically the same case. The biggest differences between the spigden and the ringke I saw were plugs where the cutouts are, it comes with a screen protector AND the power button and volume rocker are much more pronounced (easier to distinguish) in my opinion. Both cases are great and if your curious about the other, here's a link.

They are flush, and built into the soft rubber material. I know many people are having issues with the button placement, but it hasn't been a problem for me. It's quite simple really, top is power, bottom is volume down, that leaves the middle for.... You guessed it! Haha

Haha, thanks. I've been an Android user since the G1. The iPhone is for work. FIgured since ALLLL of my personal devices have been Android, might as well try somethign different.
To be honest, I barely even touch my iPhone other than for responding to e-mails on the go, and emergency work calls. It was cool and interesting for about 2 days, though I will probably upgrade to the iPhone 6S plus when it becomes available (for work of course).
Spigen Perfect/Thin Fit VS Ringke SLIM
I have both the Spigen Perfect/Thin Fit and the Ringke SLIM cases in black. I started with the Spigen but didn't like the way the Motorola logo was the centerpiece of the back of the phone and also the case kept 'unclicking' out of position on the phone when it was in my pocket (so far in only 3 days this has happened around 5 times)... so I looked for an alternative and found the Ringke SLIM. I have to say I much prefer the Ringke, it's simple, it has very subtle branding (no cutcouts for motorola logo on the back either) and the cutouts for the inputs are nicer. It also has cut outs at the stress points that make it a bit more durable (less chance of the plastic breaking or the case stressing in general). Also, so far the Ringke has been rock solid and hasn't moved an inch on my Nexus 6. The only thing I miss from the Spigen is the soft touch black coating... but considering the other issues I had, this is perfectly acceptable.
I got the spigen neo hybrid, it's OK but makes the phone feel bulky and makes the screen bezel look huge. Also the buttons could be better designed, the nexus 6 has a smaller textured button and a longer volume button, spigen went for 3 buttons all the same size with no texture and in my coat pocket it's hard to get the right button to change volume when listening to music.
Hello XDA,
Im looking for a case that will protect the nexus 6 from minor drops and that i will be able to enjoy from its beatiful desing and its white color.
I dont want the case to hide the white color on the back and the "NEXUS" writting. It will be great if the case could seal the audio input to prevent it from getting dirt and eventually ruining it.
I dont mind if the case will make my phone bigger or heavier by much.
Highly prefer Mat material and not plastic because plastic fealing makes my hand sweat.
Could you please recommend me a good case that fits my needs?
Appreciate any help offered!
I got this one and like it. Transparent back and choice of color for the sides. Cutouts are accurate.

Its up to you, there is no "best transparent case" but there are many good choices.
Here are my favorites for clear/transparent casesmost of my cases are clear/transparent)
SUPCase (frosted clear PC back with TPU bumper)
TUDIA ( TPU Clear top and bottom with a matte clear back
Cruzerlite (clear back and sides TPU with android logo on back)
Evecase (100% clear TPU case but the buttons are hard to push)
Ringke Fusion (hard PC back with TPU bumper)
I'm a big fan of my Orzly Flexislim. It's the frosted clear color. There's also a smoky black one out there but since you've got a Cloud White I figure this is most applicable to you.

Buttons are probably my least favorite part of the case. It's just cut-outs, and the material left around the cutouts is pretty thin. I'm not afraid it will tear or anything, just that they are the two bits of wiggliness on the otherwise solid case.
On the plus side all the sides (both top and bottom) are covered all the way around which is nice. This is in contrast to cases like the Bear Motion sandstone case or other similar snap-on cases that leave the top and bottom exposed.

Thanks for your replys guys. You've helped me alot. I'm debating between the Ringke FUSION case and the Ringke MAX case. It seem they are the two that best fits my needs. The only thing that prevents me from getting the FUSION over the MAX is that im not sure the case will feel good in my hand. I tend to sweat in my hands specially holding cheap plastic so i fear ill have it with the FUSION case. Is there anyone here that has the FUSION and can share his expirience about the material and grip of the nexus with the fusion case?

the cutout is my fav, in this way the buttons are flushed with the case. Preventing alot of accidental presses.

I have Spigen ultra hybrid with clear back and gun metal sides, and the Ringke fusion clear. Still making up my mind which I prefer. The Ringke has caps for the headphone and USB sockets....the headphone one is OK but the USB takes a bit of fiddling to get it to close flush. I think I prefer the feel of the Ringke but the Spigen feels a little more solid. The Ringke is better for the buttons, there's a clear separation between the power and volume buttons. With the Ringke case there's a clear audible click when the buttons are pressed, which I don't get with the Spigen. Both cases work OK with my tylt vu charger.

As you can see in my signiture, i had Motorola atrix 4G as my daily driver before the Nexus 6. I didnt use the audio port quite much and it got ruined by the dust overtime. Same thing about the hdmi port but not the usb port.
I had the atrix for almost 3 years and those port got ruined twice after i repaired them. If i took the atrix to the beach i noticed it always got sand into the port even i didnt took it out from my backpack. Sand can get in from the tiniest holes and i plan to use the nexus 6 for a long time, therefore i wanna make sure i get the best suitable case for me.
Cheers.
Huge fan of the Cruzerlite cases. I have the clear one on my N6 now and it's great.
EDIT: I'm using a Dbrand skin, so I switched to Ringke Fusion Crystal so I could see the skin more clearly on the back. Fantastic clear case.
Tried due diligence and to search for the right thread.
I picked up the Fosman case on Amazon, one of the cheapo $10 ones, and it's turned out pretty great. Love the matte/frosted back, though I wish it were a bit more transparent so the black came through better. Good purchase, though I'm sure all of these TPU / cruzerlite / whatever companies are pretty much selling the exact same product.

I cover my ports also to keep crap out..even if you find a case you like but it doesn't have covers you can always spend a couple bucks and grab silicone port plugs online... I use them when not in my OtterBox on my Note and they work well.

How did you like the UAG compared to the Ringke Max? I have the Max now and while I like it I find it a bit slippery on the back, so now I'm gonna try the UAG.

They are both very good cases. The UAG is a little slimmer maybe, but not much. I might actually go back to the Max, I haven't decided yet. I think if you like the one you'll like the other. I guess the one advantage the UAG has is, even though it's still slick plastic the indents on the back give a little more grip, and the volume buttons feel better.
Bought the fusion crystal case from Ringke:
GOOD:
- Completely transparent to show off Z5P's sexy back
- Grip is pretty solid
- Caps for both the headphone jack and the USB port provides additional protection for when you have that occasional dip in the pool.
- Looks premium; doesn't look cheap
- Has these four little bumpers at the back to prevent the case from being scratched when put on a flat surface
- Volume rocker and power rubbers can be easily pressed
- Scratch-resistant (so far)
- Comes with free screen protectors for both front and back
BAD:
- Fingerprint magnet (so you need to wash it after a hard day's use)
How is that and where did you get it from?
I have this one as well. Ordered from Amazon. Took forever to arrive, I think it is just becoming available. Very happy with it. Really zero complaints. Came with front and rear PET screen cover that work nicely to protect the back (didn't use it on the front, already had another screen protector). The insert said this was to prevent visual artifacts. It's a nice bonus.

didn't use the screen protectors as i also already have my front screen protector and i don't want to cover the glass effect at the back. the back protector was matte so it covers the mirror back and i've always used the back as a mirror.
when i put on the back protector is clear as i can still see the mirror, after removing the top layer sticker which is part (2) my back protector goes matte. i suddenly feel so disappointed. the matte back looks nice but i still prefer the mirror back. im struggling should i remove the back protector as it is a very good quality and when i stick it on theres very little bubble and easy to take out those bubble.

Really? The back tempered glass of Rignke removes the glass effect in the back side?
U should test with another screen protector like Nillkin or Rhidon
I also have this case. My Chrome z5p looks gorgeous in this. Quality
Transparent with 1 year

Hi everyone, I am using Ringke Fusion Smoke Black for my Sony Xperia Z5 Premium. I have selected smoke black after reading some online reviews & some fitting issue, as after some time clear one gets yellowing. I am happy with smoke black.
ill be getting the smoked black one in the mail soon will report back with a small review
do this case makes the phone a lot hotter ?

No it does not make the phone hotter
Too thick for my taste...

Got a scratch 1st day... And I have a too big gap at the back around the cam so dust comes in between the case and the phone. Annoying on a black phone... Good fit besides that

No it doesn't. I am using a Ringke case with the back screen protector now and it's a perfect mirror.
It's not actually a tempered glass screen protector it's a very thin layer that (supposedly) prevents a rainbow effect occurring if you use the Ringke case - but of course it also provides some protection as well.
No idea what this person did ... maybe they somehow forgot to remove the protective packaging?

Got mine yesterday, smoke black, and my pone looks great. You have to use the back cover and everything will work and look as intended. Good qualiy case but a bit pricy
This is the best case for z5p. Its not over protected, but just enough. Also fits perfect.
Huge fan of Ringke Fusion cases in general, as I used them on few of my past phones. I will go as far as saying this is probably the best case of this clear/hybrid type in general, beating even the Spigen Ultra Hybrid which is quite hyped case. I find Ringe Fusion extremely precisely built, with perfect cutouts, and also the button cover sections are very easy to press, and you perfectly feel the "click" underneath. One more thing I like, is that the surface is so gentle to wipe, and not sticky at all, like some kind of oleophobic coating for plastic is there. I'm using the smoke black version on my Z5P, and I love it, along with matt protector for back side which takes away some of the mirror effect, but also reduces smudges and dust visibility.

I am using this too, protection is superb, design details are satisfying, well considerate,
