Picked up the grey and blue ones since they were $4.99 each with prime shipping.
Pretty good quality. The texture is really nice and soft yet still durable. Fitment was perfect. Very light. Replacing my slim spigen case with these.

I have a green one and my only complaint is that it does accentuates pocket fluff getting stuck on the edge of the screen but overall that's not a big deal and I gotta say that on the whole I love it.
I really like that the phone lays flat with this and yet it doesn't make the phone feel bulky.
Case looks nice. Unfortunately I hate cases that don't fully cover the top or bottom
Just to clarify for potential buyers, the cases pictured are the sand cases. The regular premium case has no texture. I got 1 sand and one premium yesterday. I was hoping that the premium had a soft touch coating but it does not. I really like the sand case.

it looks like the inside of the sand version is also sanded...will that scratch up the plastic/chrome band and back cover? thanks

From the pics, it looks more sky blue than blue. Is that correct?
I picked up one of the sand black ones on a whim - love it. Great texture, good grip without being sticky (still slides in and out of pockets easily, which the stickier rubber ones do not).
No, there is no texture on the inside to scratch the phone, only outside. May still try a spigen, but super happy with this - would have been happy at $15-20, at $5 it's a no-brainer.
why do all slim fit covers not protect the top and bottom? i love that case, but have to have four sided protection.

In for 1! Testing the gray one Thanks!
Let me start by saying i HATE using a case. I would never consider an Otterbox before due to the thickness, This case seems to be slim. Anyone have experience with it?

I have had the Symmetry case for a week or so now. I like it. I picked up a Spigen Slim Armor too. The Spigen is a bit slimmer, but the white color I picked stained quickly at work (I'm a mechanic). The Symmetry is a good bit thinner than the older Commuter cases. I'd say it's like an Urban Armor Gear case but without the extra corner protection and added thickness from the design in the plastic on the rear.
The Spigen Slim armor will give you nearly identical protection while being a tad thinner, just stay away from white. With that said, I really like the Symmetry series. It'll be on my G3 for a long while. Wireless charging still works flawlessly.

The blue one is the best. I've sadly dropped my g3 a couple of times and it's perfectly fine, the case however, has some scratches and nicks, but its definitely built to protect while being fairly slim. As you can see in my picture the color is awesome and really looks good in the light.

I bought the Symmetry case for the HTC One M8 and loved it. Am now waiting for Symmetry case for G3.
Just got this case for a great price from Amazon. I had a Body Glove case, which is nice, but I wanted a bit more protection and wanted a case that fit tighter to the phone. The Otterbox is perfect - REALLY tight, no loose sides or top or bottom, so it feels like a tank once it's on. It's a little tough to get off, but that's no big deal. I can also confirm it works fine for wireless charging.
I think this is the case I'll be keeping my G3 in until I get a new phone next year.
This case is my personal favorite next to the quick circle wireless charging case by lg, this case fits very well and tight without adding to much bulk, the cutout holes for the various phone buttons, camera, flash, and etc are also precisely cut leaving no extra unneeded spacing. This case offers pretty standard protection from you everyday run of the mill usage and accidents that may occur however with that being said i would recommend getting a good tempered glass screen protector to protect your screen from hardcore drops to use in conjunction with this case trust me I speak from experience (2 screens later lol) Lastly this case feels great in the hand it kinda has a matte feel it is not slippery like some cases of similar design and for true android fans this is a must have case the unique bugdroid circuitry design is a great eye catcher and conversation starter that will definitely grab attention and set you apart from the rest.

I agree. Cruzerlite bugdroid cases are my favorite. Cool design, quality materials and protection without bulk.
By the way, the have better grip and they are lighter than diztronic.
One question. Which is your favourite colour?
Thanks.

Better grip and lighter than Diztronic? Man I may have to get one then. I love my Diztronic because of the feel and it's lighter than the Spigen slim armor. I've always liked pictures of the Cruzerlite Bugdroid cases. Now I'm going to have to get one.

Very glad to help!
So I bought the Spigen slim armor with kickstand case just recently and found that it is rather a thick case and added bulk to the N6. It in turns made the N6 not be able to fit the car mount I bought. Anyone got recommendation for a good slim case?

Ringke Slim Case.
But keep in mind. Slim cases like this offers less protection.
I really like my Diztronic case. It's thin and feels well protected. A few videos on YouTube where people do drop tests and it came out without a scratch.

Got the diztronic... its not like its slim
The slimmest i have is ringke
Try Orzly case, it is very very thin.
The Ringke Max is actually pretty 'slim' with a lot of protection. If you want close to naked feel, then the Ringke Slim might be best, but really not that much protection.

I bought the Spigen Ultra Hybrid (clear), Thin Fit (clear), Slim Armor and S Wallet. IMO the Slim Armor fit and looked the best, but FAT. The TPUs just made the phone uber FAT(er). The wallet hinge/flap/binder thing is too loose and flabby [I wanted tight form fitting].
I ordered several generic gel jelly slim TPU.
First one to arrive is one with a logo that reads INSTEN and I am very impressed by it.
It's tight (queue up Micheal Meyers), lip is thin and holds on to the frame without going over on to the glass, barely raised ever so slightly higher than the screen.
It makes the screen/viewing pop out (it might be the color I chose, yellow).
The cutouts are great, the thinly covered raised areas over the power and volume rocker are just right (if you have the slim armor you might experience what I have, where touching the buttons is just too sensitive).
Grippy and sturdy. Knocked some on the table, I'd use it to press some buttons, sure..
I might go order more colors.
Usually I like Goospery Mercury Gel TPU cases on my phones, but haven't found any made for the N6.
EDIT: easy in and out from pocket.
Thanks guys for your suggestions. I think I'm going to go with the slick wraps full body because it does not add any bulk and provide some protection.

That INSTEN case is identical to the Caseology cases. Probably made in china, and companies just put their own name on it. But they look OK with medium protection.

I'm not doubting your choice, as it's your phone. But any "protection" you get from a skin will be just to prevent scratches and no drop protection. Good luck.

I dont have the caseology, but from the images I can agree, sans dimple. It's a good thing being at 1/3rd the price. I went ahead and bought green and black as well. It is so far my fave case.
I'll add, you know the form, shape that the phone has, makes it fit well in the hand and really gives it that unique feeling that it is a much smaller phone. This case INSTEN keeps that feeling intact..

I also really like the diztronic case. Minimal and functional.
I actually have the carved case and it's really slim and seems somewhat protective. Especially since it's made of real wood!

Agreed. Fairly protective without being too bulky. Good grip too.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a case that preserves the top heaviness and dramatic tapering of thickness at the bottom of the phone? Basically I'm as concerned about drop protection as preserving the original "feel" of the phone.
Does anyone have both of these and can compare?

The calicase says it is the thinnest and looks really thin but the nilkin seems interesting as well
i got the calicase and it is super thin almost feels like you are not using a case and i love it
I have the Nillkin Nature and love the case. I did purchase the Ringke Fusion Air for comparison as well, and it's thicker than the Nillkin Nature.

How is the grip compared to "regular tpu"? One of the reviews say it is really slippery.
Seems the Nilkin is thicker but also has some extra side grip... Hmm.
The Nillkin case is garbage - such thin TPU that it deforms easily. I have the Ringke SLIM and its a pretty decent choice for a slim case.
It is a little slippery but it looks fantastic
Unfortunately CaliCase doesn't seem to ship to the European Union...
Or outside of the US, for that matter...
man the calicase really looks perfect for me, unfortunately I'm in the EU also and they don't seem to ship here
i have the nillkin natura, it's perfect! the materials are great, and aesthetics of the phone is not damaged by the cover.
black color on s7 onyx black is great.
I have the calicase, and it's definitely the thinnest case I've ever owned. It also does not interfere with my coral edge to edge screen protector (which I'm not a fan of, but that's a different story). As others have stated, it's a little slippery, but not enough to really bother me.
i got the calicase and love it... not too slippery imho. soooo thin
I am another fan of the calicase. However, you should know that it makes the power and volume buttons nearly impossible to depress without trying more than once. Small drawback, but I still love it.

could you please post some pics with the Nillkin and the Ringke mounted on the phone, i'm interested in both(more in the Nillkin 'cause it's slimmer), i had it on the S6 and i loved it, but the S7 has the more curved edges and i wanted to see how it fits around the screen, i bought a very slim Rock TPU case and the edges are very sharp, and i have the feeling the the phone wants to get out of the case(it' aliiiiiiiiive )) ) thanks

I don't has have either case any longer. I'm now using the Rock thin tpu, Ringke Fusion and the Ringke Onyx.
The Nillkin didn't fit properly after I put a carbon fiber back skin and the Ringke Air was way too thick for my liking.
thanks, i have the Rock too but the edges are quite sharp, i already ordered the Nillkin ,i also have a protector on the back, a 0.2mm one, i hope the Nillkin fits well ?
