Nice case and it's free
@ OP: Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2133326 It has many positive feedbacks on "protect against damages," but i dont have courage as well as a case to test :silly:

Freaking awesome. Made my night.

I ride my bike with my Nexus 4 strapped on my arm and last week I fell off my bike and the phone flew off my hands because I was texting and riding my bike. My phone has the eBay kickstand rubber and plastic case (I like that it covers the USB and headphone ports) and XOskins rear and front screen protector and my phone survived the fall and tumbling on concrete, only minor tearing of an edge of the screen protector and very minor scuff on the corner of the case. Overall my phone feels pretty safe.

An amazon.com seller had the ballistic case for about $21usd + shipping (it shipped internationally for about $12 If I recall correctly, but now the price is up to about $27 + shipping) The seller that ships internationally was "One Stop Cell Shop". The price from this seller has been fluctuating between about $21 and $27 so you could wait to see if it decreases.
In the mean time.. I have just purchased the ballistic case from www.ioffer.com for about $27 + free international shipping. The seller has 21000 trades and 99% positive feedback. I know that ioffer sells fakes but also has some authentic products. I hope the case is authentic . It says shipping will take 5-10 days, so I will let you all know when (and if ) I receive it. I paid with paypal so I can make a dispute claim if it's not what I ordered.
So.. there are options out there just be careful when ordering and don't blame me if you order it from ioffer and it's fake... I will let you know in a week or 2 when I get it. :victory:

MyBat Tuff Hybrid Case
The MyBat Tuff Hybrid Case is great. I've mentioned this on other threads that I've dropped it from 4.5 feet right on the corner ... no damage.
I've dropped it multiple times since then. The colored version is $8.95 on ebay, the "Beer" version is $9.00. I currently have the black version, the beer version is on it's way.
colored versions
Beer Version

Thanks people,very helpful info

Beer Goggles!
I put my "Beer Version" of the MyBat case on my N4 and it looked great, but ...
When I made a phone call my screen when black and wouldn't come back. A quick check on google and I found that the proximity sensor was partially blocked by the new case. I expanded the opening with my box knife and all is well.

If i can't find the Ballistic case for a good price,i'm definitely getting this one,with the beer print

I got the Ballistic through the Cell guru for around $30 shipped to Australia.
Other than the Otterbox which isn't available for the Nexus, this is the only case I would trust to protect the phone from a drop.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk HD

i have orderer a mybat tuff in black and also the ballistic one... i will compare both and make a review between both of them... they seem to be the best decisions in case of protection...

Any two layered case with a lip will offer good drop protection.

I don't know what case offers the most protection, but the Diztronic model works amazing! Today I was walking out of a store with my hands full not paying attention and all of a sudden I see my phone, falling through the air on its way to the pavement. The distance was about 5ft high. It landed on the top corner (camera side) and the phone is completely intact. The case had a little scuff/dirt mark that just rubbed away. I can't tell you how happy I am to have put this on. I dropped my Nexus S once case-less and the hassle with getting it repaired and such, what a task. To think of all the trouble I saved myself, wow. So very grateful. Much respect to Diztronic.

2 drops so far above waist level with my ringke fusion and not 1 scratch

New silicone case for iconia a500

So I just received my silicone case for my a500. I actually like it way more then the first case which was the official acer made case. It doesn't have the stand capabilities as most others but its simple easy to get on and off and light. It also provides access to all ports but the sd card port. Bought it on amazon.com. through a dealer called sfplanet.com. I don't believe they have it on their main site but its on amazon for 5.99. Check it out if your looking for one.

Darn out of stock
I bought one. It's very cheap right now. It does fit pretty loosley and the material is thin. I don't think it'll provide much protection. I wish more people made silicone cases for the a500 because the leather folio type cases are not my type of thing and I don't want to carry around a bag.
I bought this cover myself. Fits great. The TPU material is awesome. I have a TPU case just like this for Nexus S. One time I went to the gas station and I was talking to someone and left my phone on the hood of my gar. I drove 2 miles to work got into the office and realized OMG I left the phone on my hood. I ran to my car and lo and behold, It was in the exact same place I left it on the hood. That material is super sticky and a phone saver
Hopefully this one works out for me. I hope to get it in the next few days.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/110730435168
I wanted clear, but couldn't find a US seller. Now that I've said that, someone else will probably post a link.
Got the new case on Saturday. Fits great. Transluscent, so the Acer logo is seen through it. Cutouts in all the right spots, except the SD card cover of course. Good grip. Great fit around the bezel, doesn't look "stretched" like a couple others I've seen.

crazy skin and screen protector

check this out!!!
http://www.ghost-armor.com/whatIsIt/carbonFiber/
just got this on my tab and im in love.
carbon fiber skin for every square inch of your device and a top notch screen protector, makes your device immune to scratches.
although you can order this straight from the website and install it yourself, i suggest going to a mall location because they use a wet install similar to invisashield to not the same and then they put your device into a vacume sealed box to suck out any bubbles or imperfections, and cure the liquid they use to install.
the result, a sexy protected tablet
Looks good. Wish i would have gotten one on my infuse. Stupid case and dust scuffed the bezel up. Also no kiosks in my state lame cuz it sounds like they do a good job installing

Ghost armor is incredible. I've been using their products for a couple years now and I couldn't be more pleased. I have the full body clear kit on my A500, but I wanted the CF kit. Sadly, the kiosk I went to did not stock it. I needed the protection though and I'm happy I got it.
Ghost armor blows invisashield out of the water. Never again will I buy and invisashield product.

Is there an added installation cost
It seems the price is considerably less if ordered online however I would want them to install it. I live on Ontario and there is a kiosk in a mall not far but they want $70 for a full install. Where you charged extra $ for the install.

gf dropped my phone, screen cracked.....

:crying:So my girlfriend managed to drop my beautiful white s3 and now i wanna drop her ass. somehow she managed to break it the same day i rooted it and started to truly enjoy it.
Screen cracked at the top corner now theres a spider crack all over the top of the screen with a couple of cracks that run down to the middle phone still works, but the crack is killing me on the inside hehe. Now funny part is i bought the defender for it the day i bought it cause i knew it was too weak to handle a hard drop, and i've been checking the mail for it for 2 weeks now. then she comes and does that just the day before it arrived. After crying inside a while and just wanting to punch someone i managed to start looking at options.
checked online and the parts cost $240-$290, bell and best buy can fix it by it'll cost at least $325. I also bought the best buy protection plan (12.99/month). am thinking I should be able to find some cheap non-samsung parts for much cheaper than that, replace the screen and give it to best buy for an exchange as long as something is wrong with it (not sure wt though )

Only thing I could think of is they might do it different over there in Canada. I think that is where the OP is from.
Just posted about this in the other cracked screen thread...
"Missed my damn pocket on Saturday night, and dropped mine on the garage floor. Got a small crack about as wide a finger nail from the right side of the ear piece curving up to the edge. Which is strange, cause the only other mark on the phone is a small scuff at the bottom of the back cover. But, I have BB insurance, so its in being fixed with no deductible! I've dropped my epic a few times in the last year, and not scratch on the screen. Makes me wonder what they changed in the formula from og gorilla glass to gorilla glass 2. 
As much as I don't want to add all the bulk to it, the Otterbox Defender, or Trident Kraken may be in its future...

not sure how you guys manage your finances, but if there is a fee, shouldn't see be paying for it?
If I dropped my girl's laptop, phone, crashed her car (or w/e) and we weren't pretty much married, I would cover it to get whatever it is fixed.
I dropped my friend's motorcycle helmet while handing it to him several years ago. he didn't have a good grip and as I passed it, it slipped into his hand from mine and fell to the concrete floor. it was still intact, but had nice bruising from the concrete. I apologized and got him a new one within a week...

What girlfriend?
The PEP from Best Buy in Canada is different than the one in the US. It does not cover physical damage, liquid damage, basically they call it "stupidity". I'm not calling it that, that's how they word it. PEP from Best Buy only extends the manufacturer's warranty. So instead of getting refurbs, you get brand new replacements. And you can pick a different phone if you want. I posted in another thread indicating that no carrier or 3rd party store in Canada offers insurance anymore. At least not that I'm aware of. It sucks because Best Buy charges $12.99 + taxes per month for the PEP. I have 2 PEP's from Best Buy. On one of my PEP's, I already got 3 brand new replacement phones. On my
2nd one I got one brand new replacement in which I chose a different model.
So both already paid itself.

Wow I can't imagine trying to sell that to customers. It's already hard enough trying to get people to get the 9.99 plan that replaces the phone with no deductible. Customers say "if I break the phone I'll buy a new one for 200, not realizing the phone is $650.

If you wanna be technical about it then she's my fiance... I'd expect her to pay otherwise for sure lol... I guess a broken 4.8" screen makes you a bit bitter lol...
Yea best buy Canada is another story they do not cover physical or water damage... Am gonna try calling visa today to see if there is any insurance that my purchase can be covered under... But after reading online about this am no longer hopeful for anything....

Which of these bumpers would you buy?

Hey guys, first post on here!
I've just got a Nexus 4, which after having a Sony Xperia Arc is SO fragile. I could throw the Sony across the room and it would be fine, the Nexus would be in pieces.
So, I need some sort of protection. I don't really want a case for it as it will make it too bulky and cumbersome to fit in my jeans pocket. I'm looking at bumpers. Am I right in thinking that a bumper should protect it well enough as it raises the front and back, not allowing them to touch the ground?
Anyone had any experience this bumper? (The official one is always out of stock)
GENx Hybrid Bumper Case (can't post a link)
Thanks for any advice given!
The poetic bumper is very similar to the official google one. I havent dropped it with the bumper on so I cant speak on the protection. The edges are raised so it should protect it fairly well from drops. Im sure others will chime in
I've heard bad things about the Poetic bumper
I've had 5 (yes five) poetic bumpers and not a single one has lasted more than a week. The soft rubber separates from the hard plastic and just peels away. I did contact poetic and they sent me two replacement units but they still had the same problem so I'm not even going to bother anymore.
The poetic is good for 10$ but buttons aren't easy to press.

Just a side note tho...the poetic bumper doesn't work with the wireless orb.

I had the Poetic bumper which started to fall apart.
When I first used it though, I loved it. The buttons were easy to press and had good feedback. When the bumper fell apart, the Official Bumper was also in stock again. I decided to buy the bumper and the Ringke Fusion Case.
The Official Bumper is great. Pressing the buttons feels like I'm pressing the button on the actual device. The texture on the bumper makes it very easy to grip. Hard to use anything else.
I would personally buy the poetic since I've heard the quality is much better now and won't fall apart as easily and fairly cheap. Then try to get the official bumper when it's back in stock.

Sending my OPX back...

I was super excited to see my new OPX show up.
I was surprised that they chose to ship my phone and Rosewood case in nothing more than a thin bubble wrap envelope. When I opened the package, the box has pretty dented in the corners.
After I took out the phone and pulled off the plastic protectors, I found small scratches on three of the four corners on the back of the phone. I then found a pretty deep search on the front below the home button.
Then I was even more bummed to find adhesive tape sticking out of the back glass beside the top microphone.
Poor build quality and poor packaging for sure.
I love the feel of this phone , too bad.

I think you got scammed mate. Most of ours came in that clean slide box as seen above. Did you buy it off eBay or something? Maybe it was actually a second hand phone someone tried to sell you?

In the UK by law they have to pay for it, don't know about elsewhere. But from what I have heard some people have had to pay ridiculous amounts of money to send the device back.

mine came in a DHL envelope packaging. sadly the box came with a small dent on it, but that's where it ended. The device itself is brand new with no issues whatsoever. super happy with it.
sad that your experience isnt the same as most of us...
oh nooo...too pity
