So... with all the early shipments and possible early arrivals in 3 days... who else has to wait for their case to come in?..
The official Samsung case I ordered won't be here til around 9/12. I think I'll just leave the phone plugged into the DeX station that I got, today, until then.

Quite the opposite. I've had 3 sitting in my room for days, and only waiting on one, and that'll arrive Tuesday the 5th. Sprint is shippin' the N8 early..........
Yeah already have a case waiting.

With labor day, it won't get here before my phone. I'm just going to try to pick up another one of the official Samsung cases at the Verizon store when it comes in. Those sell for the same price there as they do on Amazon and anywhere else at the moment. I was thinking the S-View cover. I'm hoping they have one I can try out first.

Preordered through Verizon Friday evening Sept 1st, ordered Spigen Neo Hybrid from Amazon yesterday, Sunday the 3rd. Both will be delivered tomorrow Sept 5th. Good enough for me.
Jesus, hope the case comes before the phone!

Nothing I ordered will be here, today, when my phone arrives. But there is a case I'm interested that I wanted to look at first in the store, and that's the S-view cover case. I'll probably pick it up at the V-store, this afternoon.
Yea order from samsung and still no tracking number so safe to say i wont get it until street date 9/15.
But order a rhinoshield crash guard but it wont even ship until the end of sept.
So ill be caseless till then luckly my screen protector will be here by the end of the week.
And i did get a cheap tpu case for my wife until our rhinoshields come in
Phone today, Otter Box tomorrow. Hoping for the best.

Found these today, OtterBox Commuter @ Mobile City - $24.99, and OtterBox Commuter @ Cellular Acc - $29.95. Also, Mobile City is offering FREE SHIPPING on theirs.
I love the Commuter on my Evo 4G, so I'm definitely gonna pick one of these up.
On a side note, what's up with OtterBox that they don't have any info on their site, yet clearly they already have the Defender case shipped and ready to sell, and now the Commuter looks to be just about ready? You'd think they'd be a little more into doing pre-orders themselves, or at least announcing an availability date. Slackers!

Nice find, good to know they're on their way and not being released 6 months after the phone is like they were with the EVO 4G. I'll probably just get one from my local Sprint store though. I like the fact that if anything happens to it I can just walk in the store and walk out with a new one.

Me Id rather not have to drive to the store if there is a problem. Plus then I have to talk to someone who usually knows nothing about the phones and products they sell. I find that annoying. Id rather just call Otterbox and have them send me a replacement, which is what they do. Plus the store won't help you after 30 days have passed.

Actually they do lifetime replacements for the cases you buy there. I just had the Commuter for my OG EVO replaced a couple weeks ago, bought that one when they were first released. Walked in, handed it to the person at the reception stand and said it was broken, they walked over and unboxed a new one and handed it to me.

In for a cancellation.
Canceled, only one went through so I went back and found a purple and a smoke for 1ยข, see if it goes. Also found some 4g slide cases for a penny.
amaze
Checking it out, woot! thanks for the share, I'll reply back with review if I get it!
I blamed at amazon and the store for the False advertisement or error.
They should have said ERROR, not a false Out of stock message. The store said the error was from amazon.
I found another company on Amazon selling them for a penny too. You have to pay for shipping but hey....its less then what ive been seeing. I've ordered mine and havent received a message about it being oversold.
it would be great if someone is able to compare this tpu case with Diztronic TPU Case.

Last time LowerpriceUSA had a sale on screen protectors for .1 plus free shipping I ordered 5 of them.
They took the 5 cents then sent me a plastic stylus and a letter apologizing for an Amazon technical difficulty.
It was too much of a hassle to send the stylus back.
But anyway just thought I'd throw that out there.
And the stylus doesn't even work. My phone won't register a touch when I try using it.
Good luck.

This is the case I've been waiting for, and it's finally available for pre-order on Incipio's site for $30. It's not shipping for another ~2 weeks from today (Oct 13th), nor is it on Amazon yet, but I can wait.
I love this case on my SGS3, and must have it on my Note3. The inner silicone core fits like a glove acting as the shock absorber, and the outer polycarb shell clamps over it for more protection. The shell's also coated in a nice soft-finish giving it a bunch of grip, but no so much that you can't easily get it in/out of your pocket. The shell on my S3 is also in great condition after having taken tons of abuse.
Wish there were more than only four color combos, but I'll be getting the black-on-black for my black Note3.

About 5 minutes before I posted that I read your post & followed the link to see the price & product info. I got a popup about 15% off and free shipping. I think it said it was 1 day and gave an expiration time (seems like it was 5 pm). I checked just now & did NOT see the special offer, so I don't know what's up.

Got the shipping email today. When I click the tracking link it shows due Monday . . ordered the black variant of the case.
Those cases are terrible. I had one for my note 3. The case is really poorly made and the materials feel like something a cheap toy would be made out of. The built in screen protector is sticky and your fingers won't glide. Maybe the N6 version will be better than the Note 3, but I doubt it.

That's unfortunate... I preordered this case because I liked the look and the prospect of actually having a solid grip on my phone. I do hope this case is better quality than your previous experience but to be honest for 5 bucks I wasn't super confident id be receiving something ultra premium
Yeah it looks good aesthetically. Maybe they changed their product in the last 6 months.

Considering the first people reported theirs shipping 2 days ago I doubt it.
Looks like it shipped out of Brooklyn, this'll be interesting to see how long it takes to get here. Expected delivery is Tuesday!
Mine shows already in my area at the local USPS. Should a also be here Tuesday I think
Mine should be here tomorrow according to the tracking number. Ill throw up some pics when I get it.
The purpose of this thread is to discuss case options for the Pixel phone. This is where you can post thoughts and pictures of cases you've purchased/used and to provide reviews and suggestions for others looking for cases of all types.
I've already found a number of options on Amazon:

Personally, I'm waiting for the Ringke Slim case to be released. That's been the go-to case for many of my recent phones. Ringke has a page for it already up on their site (HERE) but it is not yet available and still shows their Nexus 5X case.
So for now, I ordered the Cimo TPU case in 'Smoke' color. This case was great for my Nexus 6P, so it should be a solid option to hold me over. The case will be here next week. As soon as the phone arrives I'll get some pictures and a review posted in this thread.

This is way thicker than the thinnest available
I'm wondering if any of these cases (other than the Rhino bumper) will allow for the notification pull down gesture.
I decided to go with an Otterbox. 25% off on Verizon's site, so I paid around $37 for the defender. Might get something different once I have the phone and everything in hand, and more start hitting the market. A co-worker used a similar promotion to get an Otterbox for his Note 7, then sold that case for full price and bought a Lifeproof case. Might be the route I go down.
