Ordered a red bumper case clone, will post pics when/if it arrives
[Nexus 4 Accessories] DowntownJeffBrown:
I got my OEM white bumper today. First impressions it fits much better than the replica white bumper and its much whiter. I will take pictures comparing the 2 later today with a more in depth comparison.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] DowntownJeffBrown:
OK here we go...

First off I purchased my OEM white bumper from PureMobile.com and my replica was from when I got them bulk from China for everybody on xda a few months back. I think the white OEM bumper is leaps and bounds better then the white replica. Normally I would say the replica in black is a better value than the OEM one because fit that goes away mostly is the only advantage to the OEM. But in thus case you can see how much brighter the white is on the white OEM bumper. The banding is more prevalent because its white base and u can see the quality in the bandings color. It looks more like polished gun metal and its beautiful. I wasn't sure if I was gonna be disappointed because in already own a white replica so why do I need a second white bumper even if it was a OEM this time. I'm not disappointed at all but I'm extremely ecstatic :D:thumbup:. So those are my thoughts now onto the pics and comparison.

The OEM is always on the left or bottom and the replica on the right or top. The OEM has the same OEM packaging as the black OEM I bought from the play store. The OEM bulk plastic has a square top and the replica has a rounded top. The lg symbol OEM's grey board holder is low and its higher on the replica. The OEM grey board holder has the proper seal and the replica is missing the seal. The OEM's inner buttons are white and they are black on the replica. The banding looks like polished gun metal on the replica looks more grey but still looks good and its a bit darker. The buttons on the OEM are perfect and straight and on the replica the volume rocker isn't perfectly straight. The white is much cleaner and whiter on the OEM and its more a dull white on the replica. The fit of the OEM is perfect and it has no give whereas the replica has a bit of give although its gotten much better over time.

And here is a picture of the official white bumper with black titanium from dbrand.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Elsydeon:
I managed to get my white OEM today as well. Pretty much agree with DowntownJeffBrown's points. I'll also add that on the replica, the textured areas of the backside is much more noticeable, where you can easily see the individual grids. On the OEM, it is much finer and more subtle, you have to look REALLY hard to make out the textured design. Also interesting is how they used a brighter shade of metallic paint for the border strip, it's a bright silver versus the gunmetal, darker shade of silver on the OEM black bumper. The replica white I have has the exact same shade of dark gunmetal as the black OEM, which would be one of the easier ways to tell the replica white apart from the OEM white. Of course as you would expect, the shape of the buttons, as well as the surrounding areas they are housed in, are just cut much cleaner, and straighter than on the replicas, with less gaps between the button and the plastic body.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] DowntownJeffBrown:
I see what you are saying about the banding

I do and thank you for responding. Got a tip from another member and just ordered one from us amazon. The item pictured on their site is confusing as it appears to be a full case instead of a bumper, but the item number and image match the ones you guys have purchased. Still keeping my fingers crossed that it is indeed the OEM version. I trust your review. Having the black OEM, myself, I wouldn't settle for anything less, quality wise. I have a silver carbon fiber with white custom dbrand skin on order from dbrand and can't wait to pair the two!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] DowntownJeffBrown:
You should be good and yes the PIC is confusing Lol. It looks like a full case and not a bumper.

You take the trim off. It is only held on by double sided tape or mechanical retention (meaning nothing but pressure)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] planetbeen:

oooohh...

Well for the first one I posted, the Seidio Convert holster, you can't buy it alone. You have to buy the Convert Add-On kit thing from the Seidio website. It's the only only one of the three (Surface, Active, Convert) that they don't sell individually. (yet?)

However, the price for the add-on thing is 29.95 which is the same price they sell the other 2 holsters for. The only difference is with this one you'll get a couple extra pieces for the same price.

You could most likely sell them to someone who already has the Seidio Surface case or the Best Buy version(the Platinum case)... that is what the add on is for anyway.

Keep the holster, sell the other 2 pieces or just leave them hanging around the house. lol I'm too lazy to sell something so I'll probably just have extra pieces floating around my house.

I am sure I am not the only one torn between htc one and the S4!

I am interested im a feature the htc one has and also something I have missed since getting rid of my iphone oh so many years ago (currently have SGS2)

The feature is being able to trim video within the stock camera app.

The reason I need this is when I revord a video on an android device and share it via email or mms I get an error message saying "file too large" or something similar.

On the iphone if it was too large it would give the option to trim the clip you had recorded. ......

Does anyone know if the S4 does this as htc has a trim option in their stock camera app....

Of course I can install one from play store but the thread is not about that. Lets hope they put a trimmer in the gallery app like HTC and iPhone does my s2 allthough I love it I just wish Sammy had this option.
[Galaxy S 4 General] BoneXDA:
One option I'd very much like to have - officially or via external app - is proper shutter speed control. The Exmor RS sensor shows good level of details even in low-light shots, but speed tops out at 1/15, so higher ISO kicks in with more noise. Results could be brighter and clearer if 1/8, 1/5, 1/3 etc. options were available for steady hands, I reckon 1/8 at ISO400 could match HTC One's dark shots with more details.
[Galaxy S 4 General] NZtechfreak:
Just looking into this question - Camera FV-5 looks promising. Says that exposures longer than a half second are limited to 1/2mp depending on the phone, but obviously a half second exposure is already long enough to leverage a lot more light than the default camera will have available.
[Galaxy S 4 General] nancyfromafrica:
wanted to edit that but it seems there was a 5 mins limit :laugh:
[Galaxy S 4 General] Beards:
The only problem though with this feature of the App is it does not use the full sensor or image size to take the long exposure.

It grabs a snapshot of the original image first before altering the time and ultimately light.
[Galaxy S 4 General] NZtechfreak:
Not for exposures shorter than a half second though apparently, sorry I don't think I was very clear on that.

EDIT: Just tried the free version on my Butterfly. Long exposure doesn't make a big difference, shots limited to 1080p resolution. Not sure if higher resolutions possible on the paid version, it says the paid version opens up all available resolutions, just not clear where those resolutions apply. May try again when I have my S4.
