Just spent a few minutes today at the golden shopping centre, people who was been to hong kong knows it's the largest shopping mall for computers and phones, anyways i've seen quite a lot of neoprene pouches and they do fit the gnex, the material is rather thin, about 3mm per side, and the cost is approximate USD 2.

I have also seen a identical one to this, didn't quite get the price, but cheaper that the stated price.

I bought my Nexus one style pouch from this seller.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120832021...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_2176wt_1114

It is only £3 but to be honest the quality is quite bad. I don't think it is thick enough to protect the phone if it is dropped from high. Secondly, the stitches at the side didn't look convincing/strong at all. I will go back to my TPU case + XO skin combination for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Yes, I posted a warning about that pouch earlier in the thread. :( I totally agree with what you say. It's too tight so the stiching is stretched and I wouldn't be surprised of either the material or the stiching breaks after a while when using it.

Hey you guys. I bought a few of those pouches and I think they work just fine. I would would totally recommend them to anyone that is looking for a cheap and quick pouch. Fit's perfect. Just get more then one. I love it so far. It would protect it from a pocket drop.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sarg92:
I am looking at purchasing a pouch from fitbag but I would like some opinions on the pouches fitbag make.

Are they of high quality and will they actually protect the phone from any drops? Also how is the fit of the case with the Nexus? Is it a similar tight fit to the original neoprene pouch of the Nexus One?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blperks2:
Here is what I bought, works perfect. Don't know the brand name but very well made. Its a generic case that works well. Purchased it at Radio Shack for around $12.00.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meeporox:
it is the same seller as mine. It is cheap but honestly i wouldn't recommend.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sirgoob:
I ordered this case from Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0061XSB88/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details

The quality is pretty good, fits snug and has a decent amount of padding inside of the pouch. Just a little of the phone sticks out of the case, which really isn't all that bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bobbyleong:
I bought Nexus One style neoprene pouch from Ebay for $4. Perfect fit for Galaxy Nexus.

Go to Ebay look for,

Item No: 270877978270

Seller: hkaccess
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skiesofwinds:
i bought the same one couple days ago, I hope it is as good as the nexus one pouch
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ucfknight2:
How long did it take to receive it? I ordered mine from the same seller about 3 weeks ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Not even close. :( I don't understand why people still recommend it. It's basically as cheap as they could possibly make it, using low quality materials and pretty bad stiching. Someone might say "$4 is cheap" but it really isn't if are used to buying misc stuff from HK and when better quality pouches cost less.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
Link? I did a search, couldn't find it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bobbyleong:
I'd say it's 75% like the original Nexus One pouch. Good enough for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bobbyleong:
I'd ordered on 22 Dec.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TescoloveAsda:
cheaper and high material pouch,check it out. pics so many upload previous pages

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TescoloveAsda:
beware，that is really cheap. can you post some pics and link about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
No links, in hong kong it's a local store, and in china from the yoobao store, known for external battery packs and chargers.

Hi does anyone know if the Sena case will be for the GSM or the Verizon version? I have tried emailing Sena a few days back but haven't received a reply.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hummel003:
got my fitbag alcantara pouch today. I really dont like it. The fit is good but the quality sux.

Its way to thin, u can control ur phone through the pouch and I dont think my phone will survive a fall with it. I thought it would be more padded inside.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drmp3z:
I agree 100% with you. I bought the http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAP...7&ssPageName=ADME:L:OU:US:1123#ht_2189wt_1163

and it is about 75% of the Nexus One Pouch. I been using it over a week while snowboarding and tons of other stuff. The stitching isn't the best but it dosn't feel like it's going to come undone. This IMHO is the best neoprene pouch out right now. Took a week to get to me in the states.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ucfknight2:
Thanks. Received mine today. A bit thinner than the N1 case, but not bad so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blperks2:
Unfortunately I went in to the store and found it in the store, they had 2 and I bought both. No box or packaging kept. I will stop in and see if they have anymore and take a picture of it along with the stock number if they have them any longer. I looked over their site and you are right, didn't see anything like what I bought.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hummel003:
my alcantara pouch is back on its way to germany and i ordered an other case. the nappa leather one
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Birdsfan:
I picked up a pouch from a company in San Francisco called Waterfield. The pouch is made of suede and the quality is very good, made in the USA and was only $10.00. It's not padded like my N1 but still does the job. If you get it, expect it be snug at first but it will loosen up. Also, had contact the company with a question and they were VERY responsive.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Silent8Strike:
I also got the Nexus style pouch from hkaccess. The quality isn't the greatest, but for the price I cant really complain. Quality seems good enough for use, it fits perfectly, and hey if it falls apart in 4-5 months I can just get another.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HoOnZ:
Anyone here get their Sena ultraslim case yet? I ordered on the 2nd and it's still processing. Feedback and photos would be good. ;D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] belair56:
NOPE, ordered on 12/23. Got an order # from them on that day, but no UPS ding/dong or charge on account yet. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Natolx:
Which item fit your Galaxy Nexus? I have one of their Tablet cases and it is AWESOME.

Edit: Nevermind found the size.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sirgoob:
Ordered my Sena ultra slim 2 weeks ago and nothing from them yet. It did say back ordered and ship by Jan 16.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] duquette:
I ordered mine on the 6th of this month and it should be here in another week. I'll post pictures and a review of it when it comes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CASz:
I ordered one too. Hoping to get a shipping confirmation Monday. I have a case so I'm not too concerned - other than they've processed the payment already:(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sirgoob:
Just received shipping confirmation for the Sena UltraSlim.

I am sending pics of the Nexus case and dimensions of the GNEX to http://mightypouch.com/

In talking with a rep, they will be able to duplicate and custom make any case to specs. I will be getting a price quote sometime tomorrow and will update any info.

Bad news from "budgethoesjes.nl", seller of a gorgeous Mofi Android pouch:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CASz:
Got ship notice for Sena case today.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krsjuan:
same here should be here on 01/19/12
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s4vva:
Hating quoting myself, but here is my response from Senna to the question above;

"Thank you for your interest in Sena Cases, our apologies for the delay.

We were awaiting confirmation from our Design Team overseas on the specific dimensions per device. They have found that both phones are similar in size, so the case will work with either phone.

Sena Cases apologizes for any inconvenience and thanks you for your continued patience."

I guess we have to wait and see. Anyone from the UK ordered one and where from?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
Are there any cases which allow the LED light to be viewed while the phone is in the case? Taking the phone out of the case to see a notification is kind of inconvenient...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s4vva:
like this? http://www.noreve.com/langue/en/product/Samsung_Galaxy_Nexus_Tradition_C_leather_case.html
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
Pretty much, except I wouldn't pay that much for a case and I'm looking for synthetic. I'm sure I could hole punch one of those cheap eBay cases! LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhuynh:
Just got an email that my Sena case was delivered. I'll post pics up later tonight when I get home if they haven't been already uploaded by then.

edit: added pics. I'm trying to decide if I should put the bottom or top in first. I'm thinking top in first so the speaker is closer to the opening. It fits like a glove. The easiest way to take it out is to hold onto the sides and push from the bottom of the case. I really like it since it's so thin and it's exactly what I was looking for.

I didn't take a picture but I thought it was funny the leather pouch came in it's own soft pouch.

FYI I have the GSM version with the extended battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s4vva:
Thanks for the pics, how would you say it fits on the GSM with the standard battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhuynh:
The first time I put it on it was very tight so I assume it will fit fine with the standard battery. Haven't had the chance to check yet but I wouldn't worry about it not fitting since it's such a minor difference(plus leather does stretch it's a lot easier getting the phone out now than it was the first time!).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VladTepes77:
Hi,

I have received mine today... it fits, but I hope that the leather will stretch a little bit, since the power button if often "enabled" by its own...

have you experienced the same?

br
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fireon123:
I just recieved my Sena Case as well. I am a little disappointed since the power button is pushed when it is in the case. If I push the GN down with the top first the screen hardly ever turns off. It is a little better when I push the bottom in first, but then I cannot reach my audio and power jacks. I do hope that this problem will disappear with time and som streching. But for know I do not think that it looks that promising since the seaming pushes the power and volume buttons all the time...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhuynh:
The screen will go off after 20 seconds or whatever the screen timeout is and stay off. It is annoying but usable. I'm more annoyed that the power button was made the way it was. If it was made like the volume buttons it wouldn't be an issue with a pouch such as this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fireon123:
At first my screen never turned off due to the buttons constantly being pushed down. But after a short while the leather case starts to loosen a little and now it does shut itself off after the screen timeout. So I do think that after a couple of days the Sena Ultraslim will be a perfect fit without pushing down the power and volumebuttons that much.

Edit: I just tried the Sena Ultraslim when using my headset. Please be careful if you do this since all of a sudden it will raise the volume to max due to the case pushing down the volume buttons. I am thinking of requesting a refund since this case does not seem to be that carefully thought-through...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
For those interested in the fitBAG leather pouches .. mine arrived a few days ago and I posted a mini review and some pictures here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1454961

Fit is tight but not so tight that there is any danger of buttons being pressed involuntarily.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Negbay:
I also purchased the Sena case and mine is also pressing the power button everytime i place the phone in the case.

I contacted Sena about this and they requested some pictures so I guess we will see what they do about this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sinergie:
I also received my Sena leather pouch today. It's a really nice pouch very good quality and delivers a perfect fit.

I don't really mind the power button issue which was mentioned before as much as the fact they didn't punch any holes in the back for the speaker, which i find strange since lots of other models from Sena have these holes. This now makes the sound even weaker then it already was.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boynamedstacy:
Stupid

I got the Sena case today as well and like the rest of you, I think its sucks that it doesn't have a speaker cutout and the fit causes button press. I emailed them complaining and asked what they plan to do about it. I am waiting for a response and will let you guys know what I hear. For now I would refrain from buying this case. #fail
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CASz:
Got my Sena Case too. It has a nice snug fit that has loosened a bit since using it a bit. I think I might try stretching it bit before putting it into regular use - like you can with shoes:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sirgoob:
Got my sena case yesterday and same issue with the power buttom. I'm going to send mine back because I doubt it'll stretch enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boynamedstacy:
RED SENA

For those of you who were wondering what the red Sena Ultra Slim looks like in real life, this is it. The Sena website doesn't do it justice. I was worried it would looks pinkish but in reality it's a deep blood red. I love the color and quality of the leather but as others mentioned it presses the GNex's buttons. I was pissed with this at first but I realize it's not too big of an issue. Screen just turns off after you slide it in the case anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CASz:
I got the red case as well. Mine isn't blood red - unless you mean fresh blood boynamedstacy? I used a couple of back battery covers from my SGS to stretch my case. Now it doesn't turn on the power buttons and slides out a lot easier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rules.r:
Fyi Fortte makes fantastic cases, and their Gnex line just came out.

http://www.fortte.com/491/Samsung-Galaxy-Nexus-Verizon-leather-case/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boynamedstacy:
Ok, dude.... Fresh blood-red color. My point was that it isn't by any means pink or girly looking. Good idea with the extra battery doors though. #stolen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sonicdroid:
Mofi (luckyexpress) Cases and Bulit NY Cases?

Thanks for the pictures. Certainly one of the coolest looking pouches on this thread along with the Red Sena and the (rather utilitarian) Waterfield ones.

Do you mean to say that the Galaxy Nexus sticks out of that pouch? Does it fit tightly in the pouch?

Also has anyone tried the Built NY pouches for Galaxy Nexus? They are available at J&R. Some of the them say they are for "smartphones" with these dimensions: Size: W 5.5" x H 3.5" x D 0.6" / W 14cm x H 9cm x D 1.5cm Compared to the GN dimensions: 5.33X2.67X0.37, it looks like it might fit but it would be great to hear if anyone on this thread has actually tried the BuiltNY cases for GN. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hellosunnydays:
Snupped.com makes custom cloth sleeves and cases for electronics. I bought one for my laptop two years ago and am thinking of getting one for my phone. It's lightly padded. You get to pick the fabric print for the inside and outside. It's really nice and would be great for those who like some feminine or whimsical flair to their gadgets.

You could probably commission one on Etsy too. Most sellers are more than happy to set up a custom listing for you if you provide the phone dimensions. I would go this route if you see a fabric that you like but the sleeve is for another device. I've had good experiences buying custom items from there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] econometrician:
ANybody heard back from Sena regarding the tight fit issue? Just got mine today and am having the same problem as everyone else
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VladTepes77:
Hi,

I must admit that after 4-5 days the leather stretched pretty much as expected, now the power button is no longer "accidentally" pressed, at least only very few times.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frying_fish:
I have literally just had this turn up from fit bag. It is alcantra suede with a custom android logo. It was 32eur including postage to UK and took about 10 days. Perfect fit and looks great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bangarang:
I've had the Sena case for about a week and it definitely stretches out. I had the same problem with my power button getting pushed, but it pretty much never happens now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CASz:
If you stand the case up you can j-u-s-t see the top edge of the GN. It fits in really nicely. Not loose but you can tip the phone out to answer. It my work day sleeve because it's a bit more padded.

The BuiltNYC case you mentioned sounds interesting. I'm using one for my Galaxy Tab and it works slick. Do you think the GPS hoodie would work for size? I kind of like the travel organizer too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
That pouch looks perfect, is there another site that sells them that is in english and ships to canada?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
I can answer that if you don't mind.

fitBags are hand made in Germany, so there are no other shops with these pouches. They will send them world wide though and they do speak english. Drop them a line here: http://shop.fitbag.de/contacts/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ofaessler:
In late Nov last year I ordered a suitable case for my GNex from

www.handysocken.ch

which didn't arrive yet. The pouch was said to be delivered the next days...

The order status (delivery date) has changed more or less every day and when asking in early Jan 12 they told me it will be delivered in mid Jan. Today I cancelled the order due to a very disappointing service.

Fair enough to say last time I ordered a pouch it was delivered soon and without problems.

Cheers

I ended up ordering a case from BuiltNY. Wrote to the BuiltNY people and they think the dimensions would fit perfectly. It's called the smartphone sleeve and comes in four colour variants small polka dots, big artsy circles, "coral"(more like hot pink) and black. Only pink and black were in stock so I got the boring black. It looks very sturdy, has ample padding for accidental falls and has a soft-padded material covering its inside. I will post on how it fits the phone when it gets here. Ordered it from Adorama and UPS says it should be at my door soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] v3rn:
I picked up the suede pouch from sfbags.com. I've used their pouches for several phones and love them. Phone fits great in it and its very simple. If you're looking for something extremely thin but helps protect against everyday use, check it out.

fitbag custom bag

Hey for you guys that bought a custom bag from fitbag.de, how long did it take from the order date to the day you got it in the mail?

Ordered it on Jan. 22, and no word of shipping yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
Almost 2 weeks for me (3 weeks ago). I assume they are still chewing through the x-mas holiday backlog. It's worth the wait! :)

when did you put the order？usual take 7-18 to most US areas
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] duquette:
1 Jan.

I did contact the seller, who offered to refund or resend. I went with the latter. Ill also order the same type of case from another seller as well, never hurts to have extras and see who has the best quality.

Too bad it takes so long......

What ever happened to the guy who was in the process of having some neoprene pouches custom made?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
I think he just quit, if these pouches is not made as mass production, it will cost too much.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] soulicro:
I ordered the pouch from hkaccess, specifically this one.

When I receive it I'll go ahead and post a detailed review, along with pictures, of the pouch. Let's hope for the best.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MVPete1:
Hey guys,

I'm looking for a pouch with a belt clip for my Galaxy Nexus. Something like the top case from Smartphone Experts on ShopAndroid. (I'm not allowed to post links).

I like how it's slim (slim flap and all) and has the belt clip, but a few reviews say it doesn't fit the Nexus.

I purchased a case on eBay from MonsterAccessory and aside from it being kind of ugly, whatever the inside is made from, it kept scuffing up my screen (I'm not using screen protectors).

I've done a search and it seems like there are plenty of soft pouches but they either don't have a belt clip and/or there's no top flap. I don't really like the horizontal cases. I've also seen plenty of hard/snap cases with a belt clip, but I really like the soft style.

Anybody have any luck finding such a case?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
I sent him a PM after finding his post in this thread. I'll just wait and see I guess.

Too bad that the aim for all the N1 pouch copies seems to be "cheapest possible, regardless of quality" when other neoprene pouches can be of much higher quality at roughly the same price.

Several other people in this thread have bought them. I bought what seems like an identical one from another seller and unfortunately I don't like it. The neoprene material used is too thin and more rigid than it should be. It's also too tight, to the point where you can clearly see the side of the phone through the stiching. Sorry for the bad news. Some other people have liked them though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nikos_s3:
guess I am lucky enough, it never reached my mailbox...I got a refund a month after the initial order and finally stayed with my TPU case..:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] soulicro:
Actually from what I read here people thought it wasn't half-bad! I've never used the original N1 pouch so I won't have that to compare it against, but I will let you guys know if I'm glad with my purchase or not. In any case, its pretty cheap so worst case scenario... I'm down 4 bucks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] soulicro:
Well, it seems I'm down 4 bucks!

I've only got one good thing to say about this product - it shipped from Hong Kong to Israel pretty fast (7 days).

The bad:

* Stitching is whack - the bottom of the pouch is skewed and misaligned.

* Material smells bad (it filled up the room with a pretty disgusting stench)

* Material isn't soft at all, pretty rigid

* Fit is very tight - to the point where if I place the phone inside the pouch, it presses on the power button.

Its only 4 dollars, but trust me - give this one a pass.

I did turn the pouch inside out just to see the stitching - and they really did do a pretty terrible job. Looking at how simple it is to make though, I got to thinking - this shouldn't be too hard to get done on your own... I might be going that route, and if I do I will post all the details on how to get it done.

Pictures of the pouch will be incoming shortly.

Alright, here is an album of pictures of the pouch. Hope my review helped!
