Can you notice screen lift with case?

I recently picked up two new N7's and unfortunately they both have minor screen lift. The cases we ordered are similar to the one pictured below... Can anyone tell me if its even visible/noticeable in a case like that? I mean, i cant imagine it being noticeable with the bezel being covered by the case.
Thanks

I have the exact case (except its blue) and the screen lift is not noticeable. In fact, i had ordered the slim ebay case and i switched back to the supcase because it seemed that the screen lift was worse in the ebay case. I feel that the way the supcase holds the N7 in does help

Great news! Thanks for the quick reply.

No. Anything that covers the bezel will hide it. The Slim cases typically don't cover the whole bezel except the corners. Most TPU cases will though.

Problem solved for the screen lift issues

I sense some sarcasm, but may as well be for me. I plan on using mine in the case full time so out of sight out of mind
And hey, a case was a valid fix for the iphone4! :victory:

Kickstand Case for Nexus 4

Hi!
I will use Nexus 4 for video chat and recording a video (sometimes). I am looking for a vertical kickstand case.
Vertical kickstand:

I used PureGear Hard Shell Case with Kickstand for my Gnex, and I loved it because I don't have to hold the phone for using video chat, and it just stands for recording a video (I do few silly stunts).
Why vertical? I use facetime/talk all time. It has to be vertical stand because horizontal stand will not work on facetime/talk because it would be too wierd for my friends turning their head to see me. lol
Is there a vertical kickstand case for Nexus 4?
Thank you so much!

Also looking for this or any know kickstand for the N4...

Seidio's kickstand case is in the works. Not sure when that will happen though. I can wait I always get the Active case/holster combo with my devices. Great for travel IMO.

I ordered this (ebayitem.com/350674511348) case on ebay. The photos appear to be of a real case and phone, rather than a mock-up. Once I receive it on 01/02, I'll post a brief review here.
(I actually ordered (ebayitem.com/160944505505) what appears to be an identical product at a slightly reduced price)
(Can't yet post direct links... sigh)

Here ya go

An update: I received the case, which is made of two parts (hard and soft). The softer part has a very strong vinyl smell which I am working to eliminate. The case fits well and is relatively light, though it adds plenty of bulk (and, I presume, protection commensurate with the extra material).
In other news, the touchscreen on my Nexus 4 gave out and I'm in the process of receiving a replacement. When I receive it, I'll post the review!

Minimal Transparent Hardcases

Hi all,
Since I'm really fond of the back of my Nexus 4, but also want to have (at least a little bit) protection if it accidentally falls, I was looking for a transparent case that didn't add too much weight, bulkiness or thickness to the phone. First I bought a regular Silicone one, but this was bulky and didn't quite work for me so I restarted my quest!
Now I have found ordered the ones below, still waiting for them to arrive but if they do then I'll update this thread of course

Clear Crystal Transparent Hard Snap-On Case
Bought on december 27th (expected arrival: January 15th). Looks a litte more bulky, but seems to be more protective on the corners than the first one.
eBay Link (USA): http://www.ebay.com/itm/350677300796
If you find other transparent hardcases please let me know and I'll add them to this post!

There's also this two piece one:

I actually just received the first one yesterday, but decided not to keep using it. Problem is I have a back Spigen protector, and the case sticks to it, and bubbles up the edges as well. If anybody else within the U.S. wants it for the $4 I paid, give me a PM, you'll get it much faster then the 2+ weeks it takes to get it from China.

I'm interested in the 1st one as well. I wonder if it's the same thickness as the Rearth Ringke, or a bit thicker...update when you can!

I posted lots of pics an a review of the first case here check out page 4

I have also received the transparent case from China, included are some pictures. First impressions are that they have a really good fit, but indeed if you're using a back foil protector then you will get spots on the back with this case. Also, it scratches pretty easy but hey that's why it's a case

[Q] To case or not to case

Hello all,
So I recently purchased a Note 4. I have to admit that the device looks gorgeous, and I can't decide if I should put a case on it or not. What do you guys prefer and why?

I use s view as my case and it still look weel
Note 4 easy to get scratch so i decide to get a case.

How well does the S view case work, and is it worth the money?

I use a case. Doesn't look near as nice but feel it's needed to be safe. A good case is like insurance, you might not need it but if something happens you can't get it after the fact.

That's actually a good way of putting it. Thanks a bunch.

Being such a costly device I also wanted a cover, but was afraid to ruin the feeling of the phone.
First had a S-View cover, but that just made the phone awkward to hold. and really just easier to drop if you try to take pictures because the flap have to hang down or sideways...
then bought a samsung protective cover, best cover I had on a phone. it made the phone ever better to hold and doesn't add so much bulk. I really recommend you give it a try.

Got the Rinke slim tpu case from Amazon. After buying the s-view case which is horribly awkward and a bulky case from caseology I find the Rinke slim case amazing.

I always use a case. I usually resell my phones or trade them in and you can get a lot more for a mint-condition device than one covered in wear & tear. Also, I like being able to dress up my phone in different "outfits", haha.
I have the purple tech 21case ffrom T-Mobile along with a few others that I got from the accessory shops here in Dallas. Right now my N4 is wearing a purple & blue imitation otterbox, its very cute & extremely protective

Torras slim cases & wireless charging pad

Hi All-
I want to share my thoughts on Torras clear cases and wireless charging pad. I found the company while looking for a case for my iPhone. I've use their thin hard plastic case and silicone cases which are great. I'd like to make a request from them to make these type cases for our Note's haha... Anyway I received 3 soft tpu cases for review which I'm trying for first time. We have one all clear it's soft tpu similar to the Ringke air I've use previously. It keeps the phone slim while showing off colors.. My favorite is the blue trim case which matches great with blue phone. They also sent me a black trim which I've seen with the white and aura colors nice combo.. All cutouts are aligned perfectly and easy access to S pen. Also the camera cutout gives it nice protection. My only gripe with clear cases is fingerprints. It's better than phone naked but I find myself wiping them on many occassions. I have not found a clear case to cure my OCD with keeping it fingerprint free haha..... Screen lip is slim I would prefer a little higher while placing phone screen face down but on par with other slim cases. I've not dropped my phone but I think these are good for keeping scratches away and will survive a minor drop ..I will report back once I've used them for a longer period. So far good I've been using 3 weeks switching between them, Lastly the wireless charging pad. It has fast wireless 15W with QC 3.0 adapter and it gets the job done nicely. No issues with phone heating up. I like the bottom has a grippy ring so on my table it doesn't slide. It's well made and easy drop and charge. I also like the brick included with a solid overall package . Anyway you can check specs yourself. Thanks for your time if you've made it this far along my post. [emoji16]
