This looks exactly like the rocket fish protector that I bought for my Galaxy Player 5.0.

I was gonna say the same thing. The $15 is the regularly found price on Amazon. When I read the title I thought, cool 40% off Amazon's price, gonna get me one.. But the OP adds $6 shipping.
Oh well.

Picked up the blue one to wrap around my white Note - should look pretty good. I have the Elago Slim now, which is essentially the same thing, but the blue is pretty dark, not quite the look I was going for.
$14.24 with free shipping - done!
ordered a blue one as well for my white note
had one for my nexus loved it , gonna order one.
thanks

I'm trying to decide between the Elago slim and the Incipio. Which one do you prefer, and which one gives the highest side ridge to protect the screen? Thanks.

The Elago feels stiffer and less rubbery. It also has a higher side ridge (if your glass is naked, the surface would actually touch the case instead of the face).
The Incipio has more flex and feels felt-like. The blue color looks great compared to the dark blue of the Elago.
At the end of the day, I'm leaning towards the Incipio for the looks.
I've ordered a few of the Ebay slim, ultra thin, hard back covers. There is a glossy version that looks great. Once I get them off the slow boat, I will post some pictures.
I'm trying to avoid the soft, velvety, rubber coated ones, as they tend to scrape off..
i gotta say this thing is pretty nice, real thin, almost like having no case at all. Was messing around with it earlier and seems like if i ever broke/lost/crack my back cover i can just use this thing as a back cover since it skin tight.

Yes, I have both and the Incipio's side ridges are just shy of the edge of the Note, whereas the Elago is just a bit higher than it.
While they both do a good job protecting the shiny metal part of the frame, only the Elago would protect the glass if you were to lay the phone down on a flat surface face down, since it would be resting on the case whereas the Incipio case would not be tall enough to do the same.
I still prefer the Incipio for the color (Vibrant blue looks sexy against my white Note) and the fact that there isn't a cutout for the Korean antenna (Elago has one).

BTW, I contacted Incipio and they have no plans for a white version of the Feather...bummer.
Neither are rubber. The Incipio has more of a "felt" like feel to it. I suspect it's some kind of rubberized coating that will probably peel off over time.
Both are easy to come off - just have to pry at a corner, then move all the way down the side.

Hey all. I purchased the TryIt black leather flip case with the stand about 2 weeks ago off ebay $44.69 shipped. I honestly didn't like it at first but it has grown on me. It takes a while to get used to holding the phone with the case cover flipped back. My only real complaint is the sturdiness of the kick stand. Looking at the pictures on ebay, i thought the kick stand was metal. It actually is a cheap plastic stand that snaps off really easily. A little bit of pressure makes it come off, luckily it snaps back into place. The genuine leather gives it a nice feel. The ID/credit card slots are convenient. However, it can only hold up to 4 cards comfortably. The fitment of the case hugs the note perfectly with all holes aligned. Surprisingly it doesn't add much bulk. Enough rambling...now for the pics:

call quality is fine with the case closed. i was thinking the caller would sound muffled, but they actually sound clear. removing the case seemed quite difficult at first, but after doing it several times, you get used to it. at first it seems like you will break the clip on liner but it actually is really durable.
I'm really digging the look of this case. How much was it?

i got it off ebay $44.69 shipped. a lil pricey, but i say the black leather is what makes it worth it for me. ill add this info to the review. thanks for the reminder.
I'm thinking of ordering the non-flip version of this case. Does the top bezel touch the surface of the display at all? It looks like it only touches the sides. I want to add a Glas.t screen protector, but I don't want the case to touch it.
Also, how much size and weight does this add? Would you consider this a slim case (without the flip cover)? Thanks.

top bezel does not touch the surface. you will be fine if you order the glass screen protector.
it doesnt add much weight at all. i would consider it a slim case if it is the one without the flip cover.
Thanks. Does the bezel all you to place the phone face down without the display touching the table? It looks like the bezel might be slightly raised above the level of the display (not once the glas.t protector is on, though).

the bezel is slightly raised, but its like half a mm. i still feel like the screen touches the table when on its face. i wouldnt recommend having the face down with this case.
I'm still thinking of getting this case. How is your holding up? Also, have you ever tried the Elago G4 or Rearth Ringke Slim? I'm curious how much thicker this case is over the others.

the case is holding up pretty well. i haven't tried any other cases other than this one so far. i am actually thinking about purchasing the seido active case with the kickstand. i did have my first drop a couple weeks ago. i was in my car with the door open and it slipped out of my jacket pocket. when it hit the ground it actually popped out of the case. luckily it wasnt too high off the ground. there was no damage to the phone since it was in the case when it hit, but when it popped it, it did slide a couple inches. i can confirm that this case is not made for drop protection.
I have the Samsung flip case, using it now, not sure to keep it. It's so unconvinced compare to my non-flips one. What the better way to use it? hard to hold unless fold the flip all the way to the back, take extra time to "open the case" .... Grrrr
just purchased the mugen power extended battery. pm me if you are interested in this case since i dont need it anymore.
Finally got my Unicorn Beatle today. First impressions are that its very firm. I was expecting the black tpu to be much softer but its very stiff. The fit is spot on. Buttons have a nice click but take a slight bit more pressure than some other cases. The dimple is nice. The front rim is glossy and the back rim is matte. Its a little bit thicker than I imagined but not to a point where its bulky.
Update: I no longer use this case due to it's sharp stiff edges

Looks great... Wish they would get back on Amazon for the cheaper price and the prime shipping... Right now I'm deciding between this and the yet unreleased diztronic ultra.
How does it feel in the hand? Grippy? Comfortable? Looks to provide pretty good protection!
Yeah protection is great.... But I don't like the sharp angles that you see in pics 2 and 4. Feels just like the spigen case that I stopped using for the same reason. Like I said I was expecting the tpu to be much softer and squishier. I think this may just go back because with such a huge phone the feel in hand means a lot to me. Ideally I would love a soft glossy black tpu border with a frosted clear polycarbonate back... Which this has the back but the stiffness really throws off the feel for me

In the past, they haven't done any kind of "transparent" or "hybrid" cases. You can ask though, the Diztronic CEO is pretty consistent on XDA. You can find him in the Diztronic N6 thread.
I do not have the phone itself yet, but probably will get it soon. I ordered this case and a few cheap ebay ones so I could get a feel for the size of the phone itself. This case seems very sturdy and gives me an idea how big the phone really is. It seems made pretty well and I want to get a dbrand white back so I can get the midnight blue and still have the white back I wanted. With the clear back it should look great if I do get the phone too.
EDIT: Did you get to test if this case works ok with wireless charging?
Got mine yesterday. Feels much better in the hand than the Spigen Slim Armor I was using. Buttons are a little firm, but I kinda like it because I haven't gotten used to the N6 button locations yet, and often pressed them accidentally. Oddly, I can't see the texture of my dbrand leather skin at all... just black and the Nexus logo.

Thanks. Interesting look. No way to feel the actual case unless it's in hand, obviously. But it's an interesting design choice marrying the TPU to the hard plastic like that.

I've got the diztronic ultra. Love it! However, the bumpers and sides seem to be a very hard material... Not sure how this would perform in drops (which is the only reason I have a case). Can anyone compare the diztronic ultra with this case?

Looks great, do you think if you put some adhesive on the toast back cover, that it could replace the OEM back?

Click to expand...

I mean, it might if it is done correctly. I have never seen how thick/thin the OEM back cover is by itself, so I wouldn't know what to say about how far it would be sticking out.
The wood cover comes with the standard 3M adhesive you would find on something like the Dbrand/Slickwraps, but it actually has a cutout, on the adhesive side, that keeps the adhesive off of the 'NEXUS' lettering. I think the adhesive on this is a bit stronger, so it seems.
I think if you could figure out a way to adhere it evenly across the service, it could work. It's definitely rigid enough, albeit flexible. I am not sure that flexibility would stand up to the gaps underneath the OEM back cover.
You'd also probably want to have TOAST make a solid one with the dimple filled in, if they would even do that, so you have nothing exposed underneath.
Very nice! I just got my TOAST in today too. Walnut with a front cover on a MB!

Your phone looks AMAZING!! Which brand front skin did you use? I tried the dbrand mahogany front skin over a Jelly Comb tempered glass protector, which sort-of worked... until I tried to put my Spigen slim case on the phone and it tore the front skin AND glass protector right off the front of the phone lol. Thinking I might go with the toast back cover and leave the case off, but definitely interested in what you used for the front (skin and protector) because it came out fantastic!
These are such handsome-looking phones. I would feel too exposed without a more shock-absorbing bumper around all sides, but these have the feel of something personally crafted, which is remarkable for something as ubiquitous as a cellphone.

It's actually Toast brand, so it's a little bit raised unlike a dbrand but more durable. I currently don't have a screen protector on it as I never use them if I have something elevating the screen. It's maybe about half as thick as a credit card so not annoying at all.
I just ordered my Toast skin last night. How does the skin feel? I've seen a cpl guys over at G+ complaining that the phone felt to slippery.

It's pretty grippy but smooth, like one of those wooden puzzles you play with. Definitely does a lot for the slipperiness of this massive phone! It only gets better with time as the wood does age slightly.
From my experience, the ebony wood is slightly more slippery on account of the varnish used to make the wood (it's not real ebony!) darker.
It's definitely less slippery then the default backing. The wood feels very very nice!
How does the ridge/edge feel?
I'm thinking of getting this for my incoming Nexus 6 - I do wonder about how the raised lip feels considering it sticks up higher than the back plate? Can you feel the edge of the wood cover? It's such a great smooth phone, I would be a little bummed if there was a rough edge feel in hand.

They edges are sanded down to make them smooth.
The wood texture looks great but it clearly isn't flush with the edge of the phone. Since it's just stuck onto the existing back this is inevitable.
If we could use this instead of the existing back I'd seriously think about it but it looks too much of a bodge just stuck on top of the stock back.
I have been given multiple compliments regarding this cover. The edges are not as noticeable as you'd think (I thought it was going to bother me more than it did), the sanding seems like a good work around. I will try it. :good:

I just got my s8 around 3 weeks ago and I'm currently using the thin fit case from spigen in black colour and I'm loving the grippy surface. however after around 2 weeks the rubber started peeling off in flakes and it's really annoying as i keep getting the flakes on my hand and in my pocket. Is this just my case or does this happen to all of the thin fit cases out there. and are there any other cases that feel almost exactly the same as this case? (slimness and the cutouts at the volume rocker and the power button)
here's how mine looks currently

I've been using this one for the past week.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XRW9K28/
hey thanks for suggesting, however, i really prefer the cutouts for the buttons as i like to feel the buttons click when i press them and that case does not have cutouts. thanks for replying tho!
Wow that picture is crazy. I've had the thin fit for many phones, never had that happen. There's only one logical explanation.
http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/000/158/326/9148130.jpg
Either that, or you literally sweat battery acid from your palms. Amazing.
That's just being careless. Amazing how you can ruin a case in 3 weeks. It's full of scratches and holes.
RINGKE Slim. I got it when I had the S8+. I like this version better as it covers all four sides of the phone. Unfortunately I order for s8+ and got regular s8 case instead. Returned case for refund, eventually got rid of s8+ too. (I can never stick with one device for too long)
a little pricey but it goes on sale sometimes. meets a lot of your requirements. not sure how sticky the case is compared to the thin fit. my thin fit is almost too sticky

The holes are for the power, volume, and Bixby buttons, and for the camera/fingerprint scanner module.
I have one that is very similar to Spigen Thin Fit.
Actually, is even better on the texture (doesn't catch dirt) and even thinner.
I did had the same problems as you on the Spigen, the coating started to peel off on less than a month of use.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071RNV4L3/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I am using the Spigen Thin fit and my finish on the phone is still very good. I used the same case on the 5x without having that happen. Had to be something you cleaned it with or just defective. However i ordered a carbon fiber case similar to it, real carbon fiber from Amazon. Can't wait.
Obviously way more expensive but based on the reviews i say worth it.
Try Galaxy S8 Case, VANSIN 3 In 1 Ultra Thin $9.99 /w 4.5 stars on 62 reviews. Also rubberized matte like Spigen Thin Fit.
I have the same problem. Not to the same extend, but it's certainly fading.
For now I live with it. Doesn't look to nice but still does it's job. And no, it's neither being careless nor acidic sweat. My phone sits in a desk all day or is in my pocket alone. From my guitar experience I can tell you for sure I don't have sweat that's any kind of wearing on materials. The quality of this cases finish is just sub par...

It has the same touch/coating as the Thin Fit, and it can become the same as in the opening post.
Mine started to peel like this, after once I've held it in my hand, while there were some sunscreen on my hand.

(slimness and the cutouts at the volume rocker and the power button)
here's how mine looks currently

My Spigen Slim Fit is doing the exact same thing after 2 months. I no longer see the slim fit on Spigen's site anymore, mby they know something is wrong with those cases. I have always used Spigen, but this is a total let down. That carbon fiber case looks great!

Curious how that gold plating holds up after use, or a small drop. If you purchased it can you give feedback or show actual pics of the case?
Thanks for recommendations
wish i saw this thread before i ordered the exact same case as the OP
mine's only a week old so far, so obviously no problems. but i'm familiar with this coating and i know it won't last (lots of computer mouse use this kind of coating)
these are the cases I have managed to acquire so far
first photo left to right razer rugged, orzly leather folio case,orzly thin black ,orzly thin frosted, 2nd photo tudia case and razer thin. I'm currently using one of the 2 tudias I bought as they are similar to a spigen slim armour ruggedized TPU with a polycarb snap on back armour, anyone wanting full pics of the cases and how much each costs from where I'll be uploading pics of each case to my drive account so people can see before they buy there are lots of other cases mainly TPU appearing on Amazon, but for anyone who hasn't bought a case I'll try and get each one done over the next day or 2

how do you like the tudias? can you post more pics of those
I'm using the tudia with the silver back breaks up the all the black it looks good doesn't add much bulk , the finger print reader port has been thoughtfully scalloped away to make using it easier, the cylinder buttons work flawlessly, even with an orzly screen protector there's a good .5 mm clearance from it to the desk when face down and about 1mm all round when face down so the speakers are kept clear of the desk cut outs are precise good clearance on back to protect camera .

I just received my orzly case today and I gotta say I'm a little disappointed. I bought the "clear" one which I found out later was actually frosted, and unlike the pics show, it's pretty much nowhere clear clear.. You can see the Razer symbol, but that's about it. I'm definitely ordering the tudia clear shortly, my original idea was to wrap the phone with a dbrand then use the clear case as extra protection, but you ain't seeing anything through this thing lol

have to say if the clear is the same quality as this rugged case it'll be a nice case for showcasing your phone with a skin without damaging the skin

I bought the Razer Rugged case however was fine the fact that it left a weird lip at the bottom of my phone just didn't feel natural to hold so gone back to using the phone without a case.
I know living life of the edge but don't have a habit of cosmetically damaging my phone's.
I didnt like the phone in a case either but couldnt live on the edge any longer, I dropped my last phone a day before the delivery of my razer.
Ive made a suede case for the razor with all the holes punch out, its pretty neet - ill update with pictures when im home.
Got the Orzly wallet case. Not bad in general. One major downside is the usb cutout. Razer uses squared profile on their connectors, but the case had rounded profile which prevented original accessories from being inserted all the way. Had to do some carving with scissors. Not the end of the world, but could be better
Thank you

Just got my Spigen case it's the best case I own thus far and I own the Razer official case, orzly case, and the tudia case. Pick this up you won't be disappointed.
I picked up the Spigen rugged armor and it lifts the Razer screen protector
The Tudia doesn't lift a screen protector, but you have to get it centered perfectly. I've tried them all, the razer cases were the biggest POS's... Their rugged case was a joke and if you take them off without paying attention, you almost snap it in half because of their stupid design of having no side walls in the center area.
Been happy with the Tudia, still want something more like an otterbox defender. But I think I'm going to just 3d print something stupid awesome and thick.
I have this Orzly case in orange.
Fits perfect. Charging hole is big enough and the edge keeps the screen off the table if you put it screen down (which I never do).
Camera is also protected (if put on a flat surface).
Adds grip, so you won't let the phone slip out of your hand.
