Only con I noticed is how long it took to get here (US). It almost took 3 weeks. I expected this so wasnt a big deal. Video that made me place my order:

I know about that case. Havent tried it yet. I just love the way this case looks, grey on blue is beautiful looking; a case that actually makes the ugly blue look good. Buttons are easy to push as well. You are right not the most protective but thats not what its designed to do

The SupCase Beetle is one of my favorites. Its a little bulky for me, however the fit and feel is one of the best that I have seen for the Nexus 6. I have around 15 cases (Spigen, Cruzerlite, TUDIA, SupCase, Nilkin etc...) and this one is one of my favorites. I haven't used it in a while since I use my leather backed Spigen Ultra Hybrid as my DD. My wife has the same case but in green for her Moto X 2014 and she really likes it as well.
Diztronic Ultra care... Google it, get it, live it.

My brown back is virtually black from dirt despite cleaning it . The adhesive is still holding up but it has seen better days. It started to attract a lot of marks in the past 2-3 weeks so I reconditioned it which helped make them less noticeable but it doesn't look brown anymore in most areas. The only area that's remotely the original color is the top 1/8th which I generally don't touch when I hold the phone. I was thinking about removing it to clean it up, however I don't have an adhesive strong enough to apply it without worrying about the leather coming off. The piece on the back of my phone (with the exception of some small marks) is fine since it never sees the light of day except when I clean my phone.
I was thinking about using my supcase again but I like the feel of the soft leather over hard plastic. I'll have to post a picture in my OP as an update so people can see how its help up over time.
Also I wanted to note that my first 2 supcases were defective but it was more of how amazon packaged them.

Do you want my ultra hybrid with the dark brown leather? i used it maybe three times tops. the distressed tan has been my DD and the brown is like new.
Maybe in my hand would be different but I dont like the shape/look of the supcase or diztronic
From that youtube video, how it looks on blue:

Thank you for the offer but its not bad enough to where I would replace it just yet. I have a piece of the brown leather still in its box that I can apply. I have a ultra hybrid with the football leather that I used a couple of times I could use but I don't like it as much as I thought I would. The bamboo is on my other one and its terrible to have exposed since it splinters easily. I've been using my Nexus 9 more during the day recently since I decided to give it another try after returning my original one back to Google. My phone has been sitting in its pouch in my bag a lot because of the rain. I was thinking about trying to use the other cases I have it giving a few away since they haven't been used in a couple of months now.
I wanted to also note that if you use the blue/frost SupCase and place or face down often or will get noticeably dirty around the lip. My black one looks brand new but the blue and been collect dirt more than I would like. Don't let that detract from there case itself which again it's still great. I have the beetle pro for my Nexus 9 and it's all also just as well made.

Don't really like the case, but for 1,80 it's basically a coffee so...

I just ordered it, i know the reviews stink and its been bashed but i want something sleek that doesn't add bulk and i also already have a skin coming for the back.
figured a skin with the sleeve may be perfect for me.
i can't stand these bulky leather cases.
Very strange here... I got my wife the pink one back on 12/22. I got my black one last week.
My wife's is a piece of crap. Fell apart within 2 days of starting to use it. I use mine a lot more that she does, and I've had no problems with mine...
Very happy so far with mine, and hate her's.
I loved the concept of slim & minimal & uses the keyboard slots but the reviews & laughable price scared me off.

hmm strange.. thanks for the feedback.
AS long as you protect the back from being scratched and don't care there is no closure clasp/magnet I am sure it's fine...a little spendy though.
I just got mine today. So far, I like it. My idea is that I'd either use this or the keyboard dock (which requires I find one and buy it, which has not yet happened).
I did put a small piece of clear tape on the outsides of the holes the cover clips into for a bit of protection. Honestly, I can hardly tell the tape is there.
I wish someone would make a product exactly like the transleeve, however with a thin & clear TPU back that the cover would hinge onto, and that would add the magnets necessary to keep the cover in place.
I guess it can't hurt to dream
I got mine today and absolutely love it. Very thin and light. Exactly what i wanted. Why would i cover the back of this beautiful device.

FWIW i got mine yesterday and i too love it. it does what it says it does. it adds no bulk, protects the screen and acts as a useful stand.
sure its pricey but w/e. its better for me than a bulky 3rd party case that makes the device look terrible.
i have a skinomi skin coming today, that along with the sleeve i think will be perfect for me. no bulk and protected.
I have mine since December and I have had zero issues. I love it.
My black cover is arriving today. I purchased the clear Skinomi back protector and screen protector to help eliminate scratches. From the feedback, it seems like as long as it doesn't fall apart on me I will be pleased.
I have a neoprene case that I carry it in and wanted to have a cover/stand to prop it up and this is PERFECT. I'm very eager to test it out tonight when I get home, it should be a good addition.
Where have you guys been buying the transleeve? Any cheaper than $40?

I searched amazon and it showed they had a used/like new one so I bought it for $30. I can return it if I don't like it so I figured I would save a few bucks. It's probably someone who freaked out and returned theirs when they heard about scratching.
i got my used off amazon as well for $30.00 free shipping. was perfect shape.. like it so much i might get the actual color i wanted (green) as well.
I was liking mine until my Prime slipped off my desk and hit right on one corner. The transleeve just popped off and there's now a nice little dent. Still works, but fair warning--it doesn't provide much protection in a fall.
I actually really like it. If you're generally careful with your tablet and your main concern is protecting the screen from scratches, I think it's perfect. I'm very happy with the combination of the transleeve and a neoprene case/sleeve for traveling.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk
Here's what mine looks like. I'm very pleased with the sleeve. I have the Carbon fiber full body screen protector to compliment the black sleeve. It's not ment to be impact resistant so be careful where you set your tablet down. I also added some tape around the corners so that the connectors don't scratch the edges.

looks awesome, I am putting this exact skin on mine. Are you happy with the gray tablet? I initially ordered that and have it, but I also ordered the champagne. I think I want the small contast of the silver/champagne sticking through. I got the cover for the dock too.

I do like the Amethyst Gray. Especially now with the carbon fiber skin. I think it compliments it better vs the Champagne. The lighter color of the Champagne will show all the little pieces to the carbon fiber skin which will look tacky and cheap imo. The darker tones of Amethyst Gray hides all the seperations better.
I bought one before I even had the tablet. I love it, as it's light and slim and protects the screen without bulk. I also have the keyboard dock, but since my need for that is less routine, the Transleeve is the go-to cover for me and has served me quite well so far.

I love mine, but I'm weird that way, I guess.
I've been surfing ebay and other sites for the perfect case, and I thought I'd ask if anyone might have seen one that comes close to my specifications.
I'm looking for a heavy duty case with port covers, kickstand, AND a protective film that overlays a screen protector. Also, I'd like to have a holster it slides into easy enough, with a swivel belt clip.
Now I know this may be an absurd request, yet I have found a few close candidates. The closest example I've is this no-name brand on ebay

As you can see, this closely fits my definition of a perfect case. 2 things wrong though. The kickstand is built as the belt clip, and the actual belt clip itself is flimsy. The way it attaches to the case is pretty bad. The belt clip lasted me a week before my coworker sat next to me at lunch and busted the thing.
Buuuut check this out!
This was the only case I've found that protects the camera! I thought that was pure genius!
Anyway, I've also come across the Ballistic MAXX and the Gorilla Glass Aluminum cases. They look great but no kickstand or belt holster.
Has anyone seen something along those lines? Is there a belt holster I can buy separately that will fit an encased phone? Hit this thread up with some responses! :good:
Wow those look like they are ready for battle lol
Most definitely! Perfect in the Water Utility field lol

Pretty cheap for the case if it lives up to it's marketing. Would like to see a review that tests out it's claims though.

All heavy duty! I love them! Looks like the next closest case would be the Kraken though. It's the only one with a kickstand integrated. That belt clip though...

Well I've gone as far as to reach out to Seidio via email to request that their new OBEX Combo case that's "under development" could have implemented a couple more features. I think I read somewhere in another thread that some were able to convince a company to produce a new line for this same phone, so I am making the same attempt myself. We'll see how things go
Anywho, thank you all for the links. I will purchase one of these cases in the meantime soon, once I figure which one best serves my needs! :silly:

Yes the case is thick enough at the usb port to stand it upright.
Last pic is beside my 2012 Nexus 7 in a seidio active case. HUGEMONGOUS!!
Brief first impressions which is likely all there will be cause I cant ever see myself using this beast. Shame too but it is what it is...
Long story short... I would trust my phone in this thing if you threw it in a wood chipper. It would probably break the chipper. Matte black metal outside most of it. Thick thick thick black rubber interior to provide shock absorption and 'some' waterproofing. Cant say that I would trust this to be mostly waterproof cause the camera, fingerprint sensor (really?) and top speaker are open to the air. *Maybe it can be waterproof with those parts open but I cant say I would trust it. Mostly everything else is covered above and beyond. Heavy. Huge. Heavy.
Cant really see in the pics but had 2 bars of verizon 4G when out of the case and in the case it had...... 2 bars. Wifi had all bars in and out of case. So it surprisingly doesn't appear to block any signal.
I have a tempered glass protector on this One Max and it seemed to accept most of my touchscreen input without problem. I wont say it wasnt missing a bit of touch input here and there but overall a good experience.
Let me know in thread if tou have any more questions. Pics were taken with one of my new Verizon G3's so you know where my time will be spent.
I'd love to hear from someone that ha one of these. Maybe some pictures?
Sure thing. When it gets here Im going to test it out pretty well before I trust my phone in it.
That is if it gets here before I make the decision to move to the G3...

I saw the same case on eBay aswell. Was debating whether to get it. But it's a full metal case I'm just worried about it blocking signal on network and GPS? And the g3 does look sooo nice I really want 1 do but cant haha
Yeah just ordered one myself can't never have too many cases,the only thing I don't like about it just from the pic is the "Love Mei" writing on it other then that it looks pretty bad ass!!!
Yeah the writing is abit off putting by looks of it I will get one ordered pay day.
Any one received the case can you let me know what it is like before I buy 1 thanks

F*** that looks huge. Only problem I've ever had with a full metal case before has been the GPS drops signal etc. Did you try that? And check you out lucky bugger I would love to have the g3 let alone g3 and HTC max lol
Holy shizz that is 3 x as big as the Otterbox defender I got now
Got mine today will post pictures. first thing I noticed is can't put headphone plug into the hole which is very annoying as I use it every day
@Jiggity Janx did you say you had a tempered glass protector on your screen already as I do aswell and trying to put the front case over it makes like glass scrape each other and you can hear it....
God sake took the tampered screen protector off and put a standard protective film on it. It's making pressed smear marks where fitted screen protector is pushing up against protective film and phone screen did you get this? Thanks
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.

Anyone order the Black/Black one? I'm curious to see real pictures.

I thought about that one, but I settled on the blue and clear one to match my blue carbon dbrand skin. I'll post pictures when it arrives, unfortunately there wasn't prime shipping for it.

I have the black version. Dont really use it much anymore due to the sharp edges everywhere, mainly by the charging port. Its really stiff, I don't know if it would protect the phone from a drop much.
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 hope its not as bad as you described because I just bought one
Yeah, i'm looking at this case or the UAG case for this. I know UAG and have their case on my s3, it's super good. Probably go with what I know, just to be safe, and get a UAG.

I like the UAG a lot actually, however I don't like he sole color option. I'll post some pictures of the Supcase when I get it. I can compare it to my TUDIA Cruzerlite, Eva Case and Slim Amror.
thanks! yeah, I need the protection of a heftier case. I want the white in my new phone (when it arrives) to shine out, but i would prefer a frosted case, actually. or, have the case a completely solid color, so that the scratches aren't as apparent.

I have one coming via overnight shipping tomorrow. Amazon had it available for prime so I canceled the old one and ordered via prime. I'll post pictures and see how it is when it arrives.
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?

I had the regular Diztronic but mine seemed to attract a lot of scratches on the couple of days that I used it. Does yours get scratches and makes easily?I wouldn't mind a ultra in blue or gray if it had the circle cutout too.

I've had it for over a week now. Zero scratches!
I'm looking for a case that covers the oneplus 6t from the sides only because i bought a dbrand skin and i want to show it off.
Just like this one:

A clear/transparent one?
Rhinoshield is working on one, as well as another full bumper. Hopefully it will be released soon. Rhinoshield saved my Xperia from disaster after I left my phone on the roof of my car and drove away with it there. I watched it bounce off the road at 100 kmph. The Xperia still works great with no damage. The only damage to my phone was the cracked screen protector.
Supcase do this for the OP 6:

I emailed them if they will be doing similar for the OP 6T.

This is a very good video which correlates with what you say regarding RhinoShield products for the OP 6:

Rhinoshield is your answer. It saves my wife's phone at a minimum of twice a week.

not out yet
FYI on the Rhinoshield bumpers. I love that they make only bumper style cases but their buttons are STIFF. I bought one for my Note 9 and the buttons were not easily found when you're not looking and they're hard to press. Spigen has the best feedback when it comes to their buttons. You want very "clicky" buttons and buttons that stick out far enough to find easily when you're feeling around in your pocket.
Rhinoshield for some reason doesn't have this and I hope they will improve their buttons. Also, I noticed on the case for my N9 the lip for the back of the phone was way higher than the front. So it looks safer to lay down on the back than the front where I was hoping for the same level of "rasivity" so you can lay the phone face down.
Anyway, I hope that all made sense.
The rhinoshield on my 5x was just like stated above with super stiff buttons. I tried an iPhone 7 for a while and bought one for it as well and the buttons were nice and tactile. I was hoping this was the case for all newer cases by the company. Hopefully the rhinoshield for the 6t will be nice like the one I had on the iPhone.

Personally, I prefer only a bumper. This case has a clear back on it.

Could be model specific, I had a rhinoshield bumper on my old og pixel and the buttons felt good, very tactile.

I hope so.
I had Rhinoshield for my 2 XL and I loved it...until I had to take it off to change out my dbrand skin...never when back on the same.

I am only replying to say that the Gungrave anime was one of my first animes I ever watched, well that and Cowboy bebop / Samurai Champloo. Awesome show. That is all, now back to 6T stuff

That concerns me because the only reason I'd be getting another Rhinioshield is to use it with a skin. I noticed on my N9 that I put a back skin on it was more difficult to slip on.

It'll probably be fine so long as you never take it off.
Still no solid ship date for this case but at least it's coming. Sucks that this is the only option we have so far.
Mines just shipped from Taiwan? WTH? [emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787]

Let us know when you get it.
I'm waiting to buy this too. Now it has started shipping, I may get one.
I just got notification that my Rhinoshield has also shipped, I'm excited to get rid of the crappy Amazon case I had bought to hold me over.
I ordered the rhinoshield as well. Was shipped yesterday. Cannot wait to have it with the dbrand skin
