Hey guys I just ordered this case/accessory bundle. I basically just need a case thats easy on/off for work. I dont use a case on my personal time. Im tired of the 2 piece seidio case on my OG evo so thats why I didnt go with another one for this phone. I got an email today saying it was shipping out. Anyone else thinking of ordering this too?

price seems pretty steep for a silicone case. TPU cases usually go for the same amount or cheaper and they come off just as easy but offer more security than silicone cases.
if you jumped on the deal for the extra chargers for work, i would reconsider for something more reliable. i, and many others, would vouche for this car charger bc it charges nearly as fast as a wall charger and has a long track record, though i got it for $2 at the time:

all in all, this is just my opinion. im sure it will hold you by since its just for work

I hear what ur sayin but I waste so much money on stupid crap that I dont even care anymore. I might order one of these as well http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-EVO-4G-...946818?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2c65691642
Or maybe ill just wait to see what comes out after the release date if im not happy with the silicone one.
A friend of mine has that motorola charger and I agree, it does work well.
If you end up being happy with it, then you got a great deal. If you notice that the silicon stretches over time, consider TPU, which is equally cheap. I understand exactly what you mean about throwing a lot of money away...
Just to update: I got the phone today and ive had the case for a couple days now. The case fits perfectly. Everything lines up to where it should be.

I prefer the thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) cases, they add the least amount of bulk and provide adequate protection. I have one on my 3D and with a screen protector it has survived a year with a few light drops and is still in mint condition.
I ordered the same one on ebay as listed above (Smoke) and got it today, good seller fast shipping
Plus they are only around $5-$10 delivered! Compared to my wife's $40 otterbox that has been warrantied 4 times in less than 11 months!

Looks great, a little lighter smoke than the one I have for my 3D. Still allows for the red to shine through. I got Item #261030362042.
I'm in TX and got it in 2 days, never know with USPS and Monday is holiday.

Awesome! Thanks for the input. Can't wait till they come in so I can check them out
I have the black one and I hate it. I only bought it cause it was the only one available at the time. The soft rubber feeling sucks, Its comes lose when I pull it out of my pocket. I'm using it for now, while I wait for a TPU case to come in the mail. TPU is 100 times better then silicone. This is the case I'm waiting on http://www.ebay.com/itm/26103187214...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649#ht_1780wt_1154

The two links I just posted are for tpu cases. My original link was for silicone. I like the silicone one so far. No problems with it slipping off when taking it out of my pocket.
I saw the one in your link but I decided against it because I don't like the fact that the camera button and volume buttons are exposed. I like having them covered by the silicone/tpu.
Update: Got the 2 TPU cases in the mail. I hate them. The fit it way too tight. Its really a struggle just to get them on and off. They also ruined my screen protector because it caught the corner of it while putting the case on.
I will say however that once the case is on it has a very nice feel to it and it adds nearly zero bulk to the phone. Its a very tight fit and all of the buttons work perfectly with no problems. Being that im mainly going to be taking these on and off very frequently its not as convenient as just slipping the silicone case on.
Well, I have a Surface case for my Note 3 (VZW).
I noticed that the magnet on the kickstand interferes with the S-pen. I have called Seidio multiple times, and each time, they claim to be "Testing the issue, and will call me back". I've yet to receive a call back, or any information on if they're seeing the same issues.
To describe the issue, when I'm writing or drawing on the screen directly above where the kickstand magnet is located, the cursor jumps around, and draws lines all over the place. If I flip the kickstand out, the issue disappears.
Seidio has done nothing but take my phone number and promise a call back after they've tested the problem.
I've had cases from them for years for various phones, the Droid Charge, the SGS3, etc., and this is the first issue I've ever had with them, but their customer service is quite dissatisfactory in this instance.
I'd request and RMA online, but this is the only decent case with a belt clip that I've found.

I have the Seidio Surface case (black) /w kickstand as a secondary case, so I tested it after you posted this. While in Sketchbook or in Action Memo or any writing app, drawing or writing right above where the kickstand is, I don't have this issue. My cursor doesn't jump around or anything. So if there is an issue, it's not noticeable to me.
I have the platinum case from best buy and I have noticed this issue too. I don't think there is anything that can be done about it. It's really not a huge issue even with the kickstand closed, and opening it completely eliminates the problem so not a big deal

Just received my surface case today..screen didn't jump around at all..don't care for the case to be honest..not as good as I thought it would be..guess I'll be waiting for otterbox
I was planning on the the seidio active. I guess I'll just wait until it's on amazon since there is no hassle returns.

I would bet that the Active would not have this issue, as there is more between the magnet and phone. In fact, I will most likely try to get a refund for the surface, and be purchasing an Active. I have not found a better belt clip system than Seidio's which is why this issue made me angry, their stuff is usually top-notch.
You guys have me worried now, because mine is in the mail being shipping over as we speak. I didn't know there was a magnet in this thing...why is it even needed... =/
Another surface owner here. I am not having any issues whatsoever with the magnet. It does not interfere with the. S pen at all on my device.
I had the surface for the past few days and I haven't experienced any issue with it this far.

The OP's title says do not buy, but it would appear that others are not having the same issue he is.
I have had it for two days not and been trying to replicate this and I am still unable to see any issues with the magnets and s-pen.
Had the case for a couple of days with no problems, spen works great and NFC works great also if anyone was worried.

I recently bought and returned this case due to the bottom right side mic being covered by the case. I also didn't like the extra weight the case added to the phone, loved the kick stand however.

I've had the Seidio Surface on my Note 3 since it came out and don't have the issue you're speaking about.
I've had nothing but positive experiences with them. I'm surprised to hear of issues with them.

I just received iSmooth's Ultra Clear HD screen protector for the Nexus 6. Although I've had great success with iSmooth screen protectors in the past, the HD screen protector for the Nexus 6 is horrible. It doesn't cover the entire screen and the cut outs along the top (for the top speaker and the camera) don't line up at all.
Has anyone else tried this screen protector on the Nexus 6 and experienced the same result as I did?
I've mentioned the same thing in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2945448.
Well I reached out to support and they said they are aware of the problem. All they needed was for me to e-mail them with my name, address, and order number. Once they make a revision they will ship out new ones free of charge. They said the problem is that they used CAD files supplied to them by Motorola, but they never had a real Nexus 6 in house for testing. Apparently the CAD files were off a few millimeters.
When did you order? And did they mention if they have corrected the issue yet? I ordered a few days ago (Mon). This is my luck considering I ordered the spigen case with the kickstand and had marks and scratches all over it, only to find out that some people are just now getting their replacements.. With the same exact issue.

Some newer reviews on Amazon said the revision is now out. Sent them an email about sending me replacements tonight so I'll see if/how they reply.
I got my replacement ismooth about a week ago. Much better.
I ordered 6-Pack Clear HD XtremeGuard HI-DEF from a seller on eBay (xtreme_guard) and they are good quality and they fit the phone perfectly and cover the top of the screen below the top speaker like they should. The camera cutout lines up perfectly. They are only $2.99 for 6 of them.
I got mine as well. Emailed and they shipped it out the next day.

Correction, now I see May 31.
Correction 3, now I see June 12
So has anybody tried it out yet?
I wanted to...but found the ghostek nautical for half the price. I have lifeproof fre for for the house ipad mini 3 and the wifes iphone.. its (ghostek)quality is on par.
Only problem i had was the screen protector seal was not complete on the first one i got...but they masterfully handeled it.
Call quality is good.sound is good.buttons all feel good. Its very solid for the price.

Just ordered the ghostek....looks quality. Any noticeable problems you've seen? Call quality, low ringer volume, etc?
Has anyone else got they lifeproof fre yet? I received mine a couple days ago for the samsung s8 +. There's a big problem with it! When ever I charge my phone with wireless or plug in cord my phone gets hot as all hell. I'm guessing fass charging has something to do with this. I've had 10 other lifeproofs cases for my iPhones over the years and never had a problem.
So... i was gifted a lifeproof fre for my s8... !!holy crap!! Its on a whole new level than any other case of this sort i have ever had....and i have had a lot.
I was very content with my ghostek nautical...but after using this fre... its like ghostek who?
They really stepped it up.
I also had a ghostek nautical but my hearing is not good to begin with so I couldn't use the phone as a phone, the sound was so muffled I couldn't understand anyone. I decided to drop the 90 on a lifeproof and couldn't be happier, the case is worth double the money. The look and feel are better and it is also thinner by quite a bit.
Has anyone bought the Fre and having problems with the case volume buttons 'falling off' (for want of a better way of putting it) the S8's volume buttons? I can only use the volume buttons a couple of times before they fall off and there is also a fairly large gap between the screen and screen protector making the screen quite unsensitive

I'm having the same problem...also having it with the power button.
Case has pretty bad reviews online. I like LP cases but I'll be passing on it
Just bought the case and I love having the extra protection. Doesn't feel to bulky
Only small gripe is that there is a minor gap between the screen protector and the phone which can be annoying for some
Can the plastic screen be pushed out like old Otterboxes? I have a glass protector that seems like it could replace the LP film and fill the gap.
I purchased a oneplus 6t a few weeks ago and am now looking for a case with a built in magnetic ring. I have a magnetic mount that I really like using and after my last flight I decided I really want something that can prop my phone up. Funny how little things made me change my mind about the screen size and having a kickstand of sorts. Anyways, I've been looking on Amazon and all the cases I see look like clones of each other and the ones that people review on mention how it is flimsy, provides poor protection and the ring breaks after 4 days. Also the text, auto focus and ultimate experience really turn me off on getting the case.
Currently I'm using the case that came with the phone and I put a ailun magnetic keyring in the back but the bump is starting to annoying me when I place the phone down. Any suggestions?

Yes, I also ordered that same one from Nillkin through Giztop last week or so .along with their H+Pro screen protector. Hopefully, it will be worth the wait if it ever gets here that is.I will be sure to post my opinions once I get it.
Hope you guys aren't disappointed when you get them. I was looking at possibly getting them, but noticed the case is for the OP6, not 6T. And if you look at the title/description, it says 6, and later 6T, very inconsistently.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Nillkin-Sy...sh=item260afcf8ca:g:io8AAOSw5wFb-KiG&LH_BIN=1
I ordered my case from ebay, has not arrived yet but the seller is trusted. I have purchased all my cases from the same buyer, takes 2 weeks to get in Finland. And this one is for the 6T, not the 6.
The same casemodel for LG G6 was total rubbish, very flimsy and cheap. But if the pictures are right, this one is totally different. I guess it depend from the shape and size of the phone.
Ok, I've had it on for a couple days now. I actually like it. I can see how it may not provide much protection to glass as the edges are pretty even with the glass. I used to have Loopy case and this is pretty similar. The ring on the back appears to be taped on with 3m tape, but pretty sturdy nonetheless. Works on my magnetic mounts as well. For the price, I say it was worth it for now. The oem case went over the glass too much making the edge difficult to access. Gonna stick with this case.
