does anyone know how well this pouch would handle a small fall, say from hip height? im curious because i love the feel of this phone without a bulky case on it...even the ultra hybrid cases are too big....plus these pouches look sexy imho....
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gregorvu:
I will get it soon, probably next week...

I will upload pictures with phone insice but I don't plan a drop test :)

Kind regards

I bought a slim armor from spigen for now. I didn't like it, am always a pouch person. I will be returning this and will be waiting for sena case.

I always loved my galaxy S2 official pouch - a thin wallet.

Couldn't find such a pouch for nexus 5 yet :(.

The beyza zero black leather with red such case looks good as well but no signs of a chromized version for nexus 5 yet.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] PaulCayard:
Hi guys,

I've recently received two pouches from Etsy, one for me and another one for a friend of mine.

Items are:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/128453736/nexus-5-case-iphone-5s-sleeve-iphone-5

https://www.etsy.com/listing/126415865/nexus-5-nexus-4-sleeve-case-pouch

The first one is my favourite:

- material is excellent, it is pleasing to the touch (in the third pic you can see better the material)

- it's not so big (but it's bigger than a thin leather pouch like Spigen Crumena for Galaxy Nexus shown in the pics)

The second pouch is good, but it's bigger than the first one and "Nexus" text is too big for my taste.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gregorvu:
nice, next week I will get my etsy pouch based on your second link...few modifications...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] hullbay:
I guess enough people emailed about the N5 - although I wish they'd release the one with the pull tab instead.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] offwiththeface:
Anyone have a leather case from Etsy ? Can you post pics please ?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gregorvu:
OK, I got pouch from:

https://www.etsy.com/shop/Begoos

It's custom made, just for me :)

Here are pictures:

How to order custom made? I did not see any option.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gregorvu:
Just click on pouch you like and you will see on the right side (where price is listed) box with "Ask a question".

You can write to Linda what would you like to change....

The 2nd option is to click on "Request custom order" box on the left side of this page:

Hey, does anyone with the Bugatti Slim-Fit use it with a glass screen protector? I was looking at getting it along with the Mime Ghost Glass, but was afraid the extra 0.3 mm thickness might affect the fit of the case. Also, where did you order the Bugatti case from that will ship to the US?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] lecast:
I would normally go with fitBag (I used them since N1), but the hand signed letter from Begoos and the packaging just killed me. I mean in the end things like that do not matter for the quality of the product I guess, but man does it make you feel better when you open the box.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] defcondev:
That...is...freaking...sexy.

I love my Nexus 5 naked, but I would love a leather slip case like that with some class; it kindof gives me a nostalgia feeling, going back to my BlackBerry days when RIM included high quality PU leather slip-cases with every smartphone :p
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gregorvu:
:)

Yes, this is very nice touch. I took begoos pouch because there is no leather pouch with will fit nexus + spigen ultra hybrid.

If I will find such leather pouch, I will maybe later order 2nd leather pouch.

Bugatti xperia z purepremium

Fits the nexus 5 like a glove ;)

actual dimensions are a bit off, not much, it's a tad bigger on the width and height side but the pics speak better than words so here u go!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] --anx--:
So you find it good and slim for the Nexus? Like the Sena Ultraslim for iPhone, for example???
[Nexus 5 Accessories] rajendra82:
I ordered this leather pouch case on Amazon. A bit pricey, but well worth it. Very professional handcrafting, and real genuine leather. I ordered mine from Happer workshop, it took a couple of weeks to come from Lithuania. The orders are now fulfilled by Amazon, so for a bit more money, you get it right away.

Can you post a picture of yours?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] met67:
It is quite slim, actually it is even slimmer than Sena Ultraslim. As for the overall quality and experience, Sena cases are in a different category. Let's say that it is a good temporary case while I wait for Sena to release their Ultraslim for the Nexus 5 :)

Thanks...but in the end I've bought the BUGATTI SLIMFIT from Amazon...saw the photos just in this thread and it is really gorgeous!!!

Let's just hope it will be a good pouch...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] CDeviant:
I did make a thread, but I figured I would post it here to so you guys could see. I put a magnet on my pouch to wake/sleep the phone when it slides in and out of the pouch, it works great and it's super cheap to do.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] rajendra82:
I have seen the same thing done in software very well, using an app called Gravity Screen. Put it in any pouch with the top end of the phone down, and the combination of orientation and proximity sensor will turn the screen off. Pull it out, and the change in orientation will make the screen come back on. No need to glue magnets.

Great idea. I always admire and enjoying seeing DIY ingenuity! However, you could try IntelliCover. It's pretty neat and does what you're after plus more. I'm not affiliated with this product. It's just one that I have used myself.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mavit:
Anyone heard any news on this? I'm using my old N900 sleeve for now; it sort-of fits the Nexus 5 but it's starting to disintegrate.

A fix for the Bugatti XL Case

I figured out a quick fix for the Bugatti XL cases if you're still interested in using it. I put the N5 in the case and stuck a chop stick by its side to stretch the leather out. I stuck an additional chopstick in the back between the phone and the case to further stretch the leather. I took a blow dryer on low heat and gently ran over the leather until the leather was a little warm. I let the leather cure and now I can get the phone in and out of the case without a problem. It's still a tight enough fit that the phone doesn't fall out but loose enough that the power button doesn't get pressed and is easy to take the phone in and out of the case.

**Note: Make sure not to leave the chopsticks in the case with the phone for too long so that it doesn't stretch out. I didn't leave it in for more than 10 - 15 mins. And don't push the chopstick past the power button to be sure not to ruin the button!

Mediadevil Artisanpouch

Just ordered a Mediadevil Artisanpouch as I wanted to use the phone bare back but still have some protection whilst it's in my pocket. Shall report back.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] --anx--:
Just delivered the BUGATTI SLIMFIT...and it seems to be harder to get the phone out of the pouch...now I've read a guide up here, but I'm afraid of use a dryer with the phone into the pouch...

Plus, it press the power button when I try to eject the phone from it...

[Nexus 5 Accessories] belair56:
I did the stretch when I had a BUGATTI for my Nexus 4. I used an older phone. If you have one laying around use it.

The heat stretch does work.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] vchalupa90:
Just hold the dryer about 5 inches from the leather and you should be fine. You don't really need to use the blow dryer if you don't want to. It works just fine without it but it tend to tighten back up after a while. In this case, you might want to leave the chopstick in the case for longer or do it repeatedly.

Truthfully, I've had to repeat the chopstick trick twice since I did this the first time but the case still works great.

Hope it helps!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] refinition:
Just don't leave it too long and youll be fine

I need a pouch for my phone!

Which pouch do you guys recommend that will fit my N5 with a slim Supcase Unicorn?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ImSherlocked:
Did you receive your case? how's it?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] blunden:
Has anyone tried this pouch?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=111214382783
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JD2589:
I've been wanting to order it for a while, just need to ask seller if my N5 will fit with a slim case...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] blunden:
Why use both a case and a pouch? Sounds like overkill.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JD2589:
What protection would my N5 have out of the sleeve without a case? Lol..

If your a Naked person then just a sleeve for protection I guess is fine, but I want both, I like the added protection. I'm the type of person that 1yr from here my N5 will still be brand new.

I also emailed the seller about this leather pouch:

http://m.ebay.com/itm/301023090908?nav=SEARCH&sbk=1
[Nexus 5 Accessories] blunden:
Well, it wouldn't have any protection out of the pouch of course. Most people using pouches do it because they want to protect it from scratches while in the pocket etc. but then want that pure device feel. That's my understanding at least. Still, if you want to have an extra case I'm not going to stop you from doing it. :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JD2589:
Just a FYI, I got an email reply from the eBay seller of this case and he says it won't fit if it has a case because it was made for the phone naked.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] blunden:
Hardly surprising. I don't know of any pouch like this that isn't made with the assumption that the device inserted is without a cover. Neoprene pouches might be easier because they can stretch more so it might fit. :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JD2589:
Yeah your right..

I'm going to have to look for a neoprene one then!

Thanks! :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] PaulCayard:
I think that you should try to find a pouch for "Nexus 5 + case" on Etsy.com. If you contact an Etsy seller, he will make a custom pouch for you. Read this thread from the beginning for further info.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Xave1:
Yes. I got it today. It's a very nice case. I'd recommend it.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JD2589:
Thanks!

I had looked into them, they look nice. But I'm trying to go for a leather one. I'm pretty sure Etsy just had jean ones for the N5.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mybelovedgh0st:
i have a media devil artisan pouch. it is leather.

it can fit n5 with a skin and a screen protector.

it comes in color black, grey and teal.

i own a teal-colored one.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Quickfire:
They do have leather ones on Etsy. Search for nexus 5 sleeves and browse through. Prepare to pay $50 and above though.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JD2589:
Will do, Thanks friend

Hi!

I've received my adore June pouch Today. It is supposedly designed to fit the xperia z1 but guess what, although the z1 is a bit wider than the n5 it fits quite OK. I can even hold the pouch up side down and if I don't shake it the phone keeps inside.

I've decided to go with this model based on some reviews, stating the pouches are to tight and I guess I made a good decision.

Some pictures of the pouch:

Mediadevil Artisanpouch

Well I've been using it for 3 days now.

Positives

-nice snug fit

-good protection for the phone

-feels and looks high quality

-product comes in nice packaging

-the tab parks itself by way of a magnet when the phone is inside

Negatives

-I'm not too keen on the pull tab. I'd prefer a little hole in the bottom in order to push the phone out with your finger.

The pull tab just hangs about loose when the phone is not inside

I usually end up turning the pouch upside down and shaking the phone out.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JD2589:
Great review, Nice case.

Would you say it would fit on an N5 with a Supcase Unicorn case?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Xave1:
The Supcase adds 1.25 mm to each corner so I'd suggest that it won't fit.

On the mediadevil order page you even have to state which colour the phone is. Apparently they are slightly different sizes.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JD2589:
Thanks for replying,

Yeah it probably won't fit.

Really want to find a nice quality case that will fit while using a pouch. Maybe an LG G2 pouch will fit!!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] PaulCayard:
Thanks for the review and for the pics. Could you tell me something about the lining? Thanks a lot ;)

I just bought this one since I think it's very classy and sleek and I won't wait on the Sena Case any longer without having any certainty they'll release it.

etsy[dot]com/listing/122005665/nexus-5-case-dandy-leather-wool-felt?ref=favs_view_2

I asked them to keep the seam on the left-hand side low enough to access the volume rocker. Let's see if they're able to do that.

Will report back if anyone is interested.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] intekmdma:
Hmm, it seems like most are not selling on taobao anymore (buychina), but I did find this one.

http://www.buychina.com/items/6xl-7...ps-flannel-bags-protective-sleeve-rwqvtqsnkmh

4 or 5 inch should work according to the dimensions

i'm using the Sipgen slim with my 5XL and works great.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Ghisy:
Thanks, I'm probably gonna get the 6XL 5 inches. The dimensions seem perfect.

The Spigen Ultra Hybrid is too tight in the 5XL so the power button gets pushed while the phone is in my pocket. I guess the Hybrid is bigger than the Slim then.

edit: hmmm, I can't seem to be able to choose the size and the color... :/

[Nexus 5 Accessories] Myrrhman:
I still use my Bugatti two way pouch.

I bough it for my GSGS III and hve never used any other pouches (and i've got a lot :))

Only small downside is my N5 sticks a tiny little bit on one side.

It probably won't give much protection if it falls, but it does protect the screen when it's in my pocket.

Plus iit ads almost no bulk whatsoever.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jonnyg1097:
Looks nice, and that little bit sticking out just makes it easier to pull it out of the sleeve.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Myrrhman:
OMG, how dumb can I be. Never tried that haha :o:o:silly:

I always pushed from the bottom, which works just as well (guess I was used to that with the S III), but now trying to pull it out at the corners is just as easy. :laugh::good:

Thanx man :highfive::good::laugh:

PS: Bought mine from Ebay (but there are alternatives ofcourse) if I can recall correctly. Search for ''Bugatti two way'' and don't pay too much !!! haha;)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jonnyg1097:
Haha, happy to help. I know how you feel sometimes I miss things like that too until someone points it out to me. And I do like the look of your sleeve so I may look into getting that for myself.

I know it wont really protect it from drops and what not. But it sure wouldnt hurt the phone and prevent scratches from showing up while in my pocket.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Myrrhman:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] gaglia_88:
What about the pull tab?

I mean, i don't have much feeling with pull tabs, usually i turn the pouch upside down and i pull out my phone. How do you feel with?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] --anx--:
Well, to be sincere I don't like this kind of solution...but in this case it's well thought.

Anyway, if you want you can forget about the tab...because there's a magnet that keep the tab in position when the phone is in or out of the pouch...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Ghisy:
I found a similar Mofi case for the Lumia 1320 which is 164x86 mm on DX Box (the "naked" N5 being 138x69 mm). I ordered it. For $6.99, I hope it will fit my Nexus 5 with its Spigen Hybrid case.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] gaglia_88:
Check MediaDevil artisanpouch, Noreve and Bugatti Pure Premium
[Nexus 5 Accessories] --anx--:
They're right in my opinion.

The back cover material of the Nexus 5 make a lot of friction when trying to pull out the phone from the pouch.

It's absolutely clear on BUGATTI SLIMFIT, where pulling out the phone is a battle...

A pouch that solves that problem is the MediaDevil Artisan Pouch, where the phone is easily removable from the pouch.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Ghisy:
Yep, will do.

I came across these and I guess these are knockoffs, right? They look nice but I didn't know they were the official Google cases! (mostly because I read about them without checking them out and I thought they were too expensive!).
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JD2589:
Those are knockoffs, if you want the legit version check out the official Google play store accessories page.. They will be more expensive also.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Ghisy:
Yeah, that's what I was afraid of... The official ones are too expensive though. And the black one I like is sold out. So yeah, I'll just stick with my Spigen Hybrid case.

I ordered it from here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/phocket (make sure you click Nexus phones, she makes pouches for a lot of phones)

Only negative was that it came from Eastern Europe so it took ~3 weeks to arrive, but well worth it! It felt good supporting an actual person who hand-made it vs. some company who mass produces them.
