What is the thinnest snap-on case? I saw a few "hard cover" cases on ebay but I am skeptical if they are junk. I don't wanna spend $30 on a case, but just want something thin that will protect it from scratches and some bumps.
The sticker protectors are ok, but they don't look the best.
I find that the bodyguardz sticker protectors work wornders. Personally I've used it since 2 months after I purchased my fuze and i don't get any scratches at all and they actually get inconspicuous. No one can tell that I have the stickers on it and it feels really good.
I got a great deal on amazon on a clear plastic case, a solid black case and 2 more screen protectors. Came out to around 8 bucks (including shipping). Check out around there and maybe you can find something nice.
got me a pdair aluminium case for the raphael/touch pro, works great!
I'm a truck mechanic, so I can't use anything else!

damn. that aluminum case sounded so cool! Then it turned out to be hinged.
The aluminum case sucks!!! every time you drop the phone it comes flying out of the case. you have to keep bending back the latch for it to stay closed. the screw in clip in the back striped out in a week.
I'm in concrete, so I wouldn't use this if it was FREE!!!
Hi all,
Just ordered a new Nexus 4 and am looking for case recommendations. It comes with the stock bumper free, but I want something more I think.
My previous phone was an HTC Inspire 4G (RIP) and I really liked the CaseMate Toughcase for it, which was pretty similar to the Otterbox Commuter cases (hard plastic outer shell, soft silicone inner padding), especially combined with a screen protector.
While I'm not the clumsiest person in the world, I have dropped before, and will continue to drop, on surfaces ranging from dirt to concrete to hardwood. I'm wondering what the best solution for protecting the glass surfaces on my new phone will be, without going for the extreme of the bombproof OtterBox Defender-type cases. I think my ideal would be along the lines of the Otterbox Commuter, along with a good screen protector.
So, recommendations?
Edit: Can anyone comment on the Ionic Guardian Armor Case or the KaysCase ArmorBox Cover Case? Specifically as it relates to protection and ease of use/taking in and out of pockets?
Anyone found a belt clip that will work with a naked S9+? I actually use a very thin Spigen case, but the two clips I tried have companion cases which are thicker, making the Spigen case too loose for them. I love the thiness of the Spigen, just looking for a clip.
Thanks
The encased ones work well. They have a model that will work with slimmer cases.

I haven't seen any reviews on the included case with T-Mobile's McLaren edition. Waiting on my McLaren to ship, and I was wondering if I should order a heavier duty case for it. I work in fire/EMS and construction, and I also tend to drop my phone a lot. I currently have a a cheap 2 piece Incipio case on my V30, the one with the soft rubber covered with a hard plastic shell, and I've beat the tar out of it. I've even forgotten it on the bumper of one of our trucks (apx. 2.5ft high), and it fell off in an area we'd have been doing about 45mph through. When we found it using Google's "Find My Phone" thing a couple hours later, it had tread marks across the case and the TGSP was totally shattered. However, my V30 still looks brand new inside the case. I suspect I got incredibly lucky with that though, and wouldn't bet on any case to reliably hold up to something like that. So, barring something catastrophic like that event, will the included case stand up to my rough lifestyle, or should I get a more "rugged" case? Also, semi-related, I've ordered one of the Alinsea almost-full-coverage TGSPs from Amazon. Has anyone tried that one with the included case, and if so, do they play nice together?
The quality of the included case is very good. I work in EMS as well but rarely drop my phone. With the way you describe your work day I would probably get a tougher case. I'm sure the included case would withstand normal falls but I doubt it would do well with significant falls. Hope this helps.
The case is nice, but made for show not toughness. And I've read a post where the user claims the metal from the McLaren logo started to come off and punctured his hand. I think it only offers minimal drop protection.
Got my McLaren, and I'll definitely be getting a different case. It's a shame, considering how slick this included one looks. Also, for anyone interested in the Alinsea TGSP, it's a perfect fit with this case if you line it up perfectly. It's almost entirely invisible, have to look closely to realize there's a screen protector at all. Feels like the unprotected screen too. Any recommendations for a rugged case that looks as nice as the included one?
I'm using the stock case until I find something worth buying on Amazon. Id like a good kickstand case that's 360 protected. The wifeproof case on my pixel XL was awesome.
But even with the stock case, I threw a plate behind it on the back, and I have no issues with the magnetic mount in my car.
Correction, the plate is sitting between the phone and case, with just a piece of tape holding it in place, nothing is seen from the outside.

What brand is your magnetic mount? I tried the same thing with mine, but it barely sticks. Looking for something stronger so I don't have to worry about potholes knocking it off.

Hey guys, I'm thinking of getting the S20 when its out and want a case ready for it, but i don't know much about the differences and what is good. Does anyone recommend something that is strong and not too bulky?
The S20 comes with a clear plastic case in the box. (At least the Australian version did.)
I'm loving my Schnail cases! I got the clear bumper version as well as the military grade one. They are crazy good!
Clear case
Military grade
Mine using Spigen Liquid Air, so far this case don't make this phone bulky but still protect phone from drop or protect screen when you flip down.
any case recommendation which make perfect fit with some protective glass where no case over glass overlap or not covered space?
