Do any of the glass screen pros have a tapered thickness to them?

I always thought they were just one thickness throughout

I'm using the iloome flex which I think is .12mm, is that similar thickness to the one you're using?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] chrone:
the nillkin tempered glass and some other vendor have thinner thickness at the edges to perfectly slide in with other cases.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] con4n007:
Pretty sure nillkin is 0.3 mm at the edges too

im using other brand 0.3mm tempered glass(OTAO) too and it fits no problem.

have one big bubble but its not diztronic issue as it's been there before I put the case on (read: tempered glass factory issue)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Yaminashi:
Thanks for your reply!

Does your screen protector go completely from edge to edge of the screen? Or does it stop just before the edge?

From what you guys have told me, the thinner iloome flex (0.12mm) I'm using should be fine with the diztronic
[Nexus 5 Accessories] redeyss:
I am also interested in any feedback about glass screen protectors and this excellent tpu case. Been using diz for couple of years and really like them. Never used a glass protector though but ready to spring for one.

Clear case with Bright red Nexus 5

If someone wanted to know how bright red Nexus looks with clear Diztronic case, then there you go. :)

Absolutely happy with my phone, and case. I was a little bit afraid that the glossy finish on the outside would be a little unpleasant, but I was wrong. It's quite nice actually. 5/5 for the case.

p.s. Sorry for the quality. Had tu use Lumia 520. :(

[Nexus 5 Accessories] bblzd:
Does it look pink IRL as well?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] idbl_fanatic:
I was going to say the same thing, it looks pink to me
[Nexus 5 Accessories] P4R:
I have this case and it's a good option to protect N5.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Luckyone199:
It looks pink in the picture more than in real life, but the first thing my little brother said was that it looks pink. I would say it somewhere between red and pink with this case. If I can get my hands on normal camera somewhere, then I will post a new pictures of the back.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JimRockford:
If anyone who lives in GERMANY is in interested in a Diztronic case, please send me a private message. I have some cases in stock.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] oG Admire:
Does anyone have this case? If so may you post pictures if it please? Thank you !
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JimRockford:
There are still some cases there. Please contact me for more. I will also ship to other European countries.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wideasleep1:
It's the shizz..
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Bilhouse:
I know its a long shot, but does anyone know if this case will fit with the Spigen Glas.tr screen protector.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Azmuh:
Would love to have one in a different color
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Gbcue:
I want a gloss case. The matte is too slippery.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Azmuh:
There is a purple one now....Hopefully a red or yellow one comes out
[Nexus 5 Accessories] imb951:
My black Diz case is in the way along with my N5!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] markwebb:
Yeah these cases are great for the price. Used them on bionic and galaxy s4. I had one or two heavy drops and it protects well.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jaypr9:
I just ordered one of these. I've had one on my galaxy nexus and I must have dropped my phone accidentally like 6x at least and this case protected my phone like a champ.

Great case thats not too bulky.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bigup7:
Great case. Got one on my note 3 and also ordered one for nexus 5 :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] kBTWOFOUR:
I wish they had a clear or white case. :(
[Nexus 5 Accessories] LuBi:
Can anyone post real photos of the case? That finish in the render looks cheap to me, unlike their previous cases. TIA.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] enaybee:
A big Diztronic fan here too. I only use Diztronic as they are decently priced and provide decent protection as well. I have used them on GNex, SII, SIII, HOX, N1 and N2 with no issues to report. Feels good and looks good too. Only complaint I have is with the TPU and not necessarily with Diztronic is the translucent cases. Stay away from translucent TPU cases as they turn yellowish over time and look bad.

I have ordered the case referenced in OP.

---------- Post added at 10:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 AM ----------

Over time they will. But a friendly suggestion. Stay away from clear or translucent TPU cases. They turn yellowish and look terrible.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Incredible_Culp:
I'm liking the case, one question..

Is this a 2-part case? Or just one part case where you just slip the phone in..?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jhealy:
One piece
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Incredible_Culp:
Cool, thanks
[Nexus 5 Accessories] imb951:
While I patiently wait for my N5 delivery today.

It's a nice flat black finish. Doesnt look or feel cheap in person. The TPU is of a very high grade as well. I'm happy with it so far.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] :
Diztronic always makes nice stuff. I'm so torn though. This Nexus was built to be naked.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] LuBi:
Thanks for taking the time to post, I'll keep an eye out but can't justify a purchase just yet. Unfortunately it does look like a different texture then previous Diz cases.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] fireproofrev:
I have a Diztronic TPU case for my galaxy nexus (tomorrow my N5 will arrive :D) and the texture seems similar to the N5 model photos for me. The feeling of my GNex case is the best i ever had. Unfortunately they are not delivering to germany (like supcase) so I go with ringke slim and ringke hybrid for the moment
[Nexus 5 Accessories] myorks1127:
I used the Diztronic for my N4 its whole life after trying the Ringke Slim and ebay TPU. I dropped my N4 maybe 5 times over the course of owning it and it never received and damage at all and one time was while walking in a parking lot (pavement/ouch). I have the N5 Diztronic waiting for my N5 which will be here tomorrow...in short I love Diztronic, simple and high quality cases.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] streak4m3:
Did this case come with a screen protector?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ethantarheels123:
no
[Nexus 5 Accessories] streak4m3:
Thanks. My S3 case came with one. I bought a separate one on eBay from OEMbargains and it was the wrong size (too big and misaligned).
[Nexus 5 Accessories] iFalcon:
This case fits great and so comfortable. Fits the rounded contour of the phone just perfectly.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] takylo:
Big fan of these cases as well. I had for my S2, GN, S3, Atrix HD, Note2, N4, and now N5
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jaypr9:
Yea I almost hate putting a case on my phone but I feel better with the protection.

I dont put a screen protector because I hate how they make the screen feel but I def need a case and thats all I used on my galaxy nexus.

I maybe have 1 minor scratch on my gn after almost 2 yrs with just the Diztronic case. Love these!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] takylo:
Big Diztronic fan, case came on Saturday, N5 came today!!!!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] luigig:
Maybe it is because of the different angle of the picture but the front of the case looks different from that one on the picture on the Amazon web site (http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Matte-Black-Flexible-Nexus/dp/B00FZ14E3S)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] imb951:
It's the exact same, trust me. It fits great and didn't add any bulk! Just buy one, you won't regret it!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] luigig:
OK. Thanks!

One last question: can you show us how it looks on the back with the N5 installed? I am curious about how much it protects the glass of the camera lens.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] imb951:
Can't take a pic of it now but I assure you that the Amazon pics are accurate. The camera lens is protected by at least 2-3mm deep of TPU from the case
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Enhanced:
Anyone have this on their phones yet?

Can we get more pictures please!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gsrrr:
How does it fit with a screen protector? My diztronic case for my old phone push it up on the corners.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] AdamUpNorth:
I'm using a Spigen screen protector with the Diztronic and have no problems. The Spigen protector goes almost right to the edge of the glass so the front facing part of the Diztronic case goes on top if the screen protector. I imagine that the only time you may peel a corner is when you put the case on. Once it's on you should be good. I'm at work but I'll try to take a pic of that I'm talking about tonight.

EDIT: I forgot to add that this case is excellent. I had the Nexus 4 version but never liked that the buttons we flush and the lip on top of the screen was too big. The Nexus 5 version has protruding buttons and a smaller lip. Add to that the rounded (better) backing of the N5 and it's great!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] heavyarms1912:
This saves a dollar :good:

Ordered one.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] black sheep1:
I would also like to add that I bought the spigen screen protector with case. And bought the driztonic case. Put both on and no problems thus far. Seems like diztronic fixed the problem from last year.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] RedWingsFan:
I have it too. Some pictures:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gsrrr:
That part under the charge port looks a little beat up.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] madroamer:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wkb5Qe_-0k0

after watching this video feel definitely need a case. so buyers does diztronic serve the purpose ?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] RedWingsFan:
Yea it is some rough pieces probably from the molding process. If it bugs me, I'll get another one. Diztronic cases have been good to me so I'm not making a big stink about it.

---------- Post added at 01:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 PM ----------

Yea the cases are good. I had one on my HTC EVO 4G LTE that was dropped a number of times and put through hell. Always protected the phone.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] adulel08:
Mine has it too, must be a manufacturing defect. I'm not too picky but if it falls apart I better get a new one free
[Nexus 5 Accessories] LuBi:
Thanks, that's the first time the texture looked right. Now the only issue is this run may have that charge port defect and I just noticed they covered the buttons for some reason.. :( I guess it just wasn't meant to be for me this round.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] RedWingsFan:
I was dissapointed to find out about covering the buttons. But they did a good job with it. I hardly notice they are covered and actually prefer it this way.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wideasleep1:
The N4 case is this way so it is consistent, and preferred IMHO.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] nacy333:
I have the slight defect by the charging port as well.

A few notes:

The hole for the charging port doesn't fully allow some usb cables to fit properly, it was much larger on the Nexus 4 case, but then again the Nexus 4 was a thicker phone.

I also got the Spigen Slim Case (the hard case that doesn't offer full coverage on the top and bottom of the phone) and I have to say that I prefer the Diztronic case much more. The Diztronic case feels better in hand and barely adds any noticeable bulk to the phone. When comparing the size of both cases, the Diztronic doesn't feel much larger than the Spigen Slim Case.

On the above note, the thickness of the case itself feels *much* thinner than the that of the Nexus 4 case. In holding and flexing both of them, the Nexus 4 case feels much more stronger and thicker than the Nexus 5 case. In that regard, the case itself doesn't seem like it will protect as good if you happen to drop the phone.

I too have the Spigen Screen protector. I botched the first install of it and was slightly mis-aligned, which resulted in lifting when I put the case on. After a correctly aligned second screen protector, the lifting issues did not occur.

I'm pretty happy about the case so far. Where the Nexus 4 case added considerable bulk to the phone, I think the Nexus 5 feels better with the case on and offers good enough protection while adding a minimal amount of bulk.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] churchrickshaw:
anyone know if therer will be a white?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jaypr9:
So I received my case today and as others said I wasnt expecting the buttons to be covered.

I'm disappointed and am not liking it so I probably wont use it.

I remember when the galaxy nexus came out it also had the buttons covered then they released a updated version with them cutout and sent everyone who had bought the 1st version the newer one f.o.c.

Not sure why they went back with the covering of the button.. oh well.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] LuBi:
Only time will tell, but white isn't a common option from Diztronic.. The N4 didn't see white but I know the S4 did, so it may depend on the handset colors in production. :fingers-crossed: I usually get my black from Diztronic and a color from Cruzerlite, they have white (http://www.cruzerlite.com/cases/lg/nexus-5/cruzerlite-bugdroid-circuit-case-for-lg-nexus-5) and discounts for xda members 10%, type xda at checkout.

Sorry you missed it, I would have done the same thing had I not noticed it. I didn't know about that GNex situation, thanks for sharing it. I looked at the N4 like [MENTION=311328]wide[/MENTION]asleep mentioned and unfortunately they did cover the buttons on that one too.. Having had both a GNex and EVO 4G LTE that had bare buttons I find it strange Diztronic chose to cover the ceramic buttons of the N5. :(
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wideasleep1:
The button 'covers' work great! And protects them from dust and crud buildup.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Landara:
I am still hoping they will release this case for N5! Looked DEAD sexy and was amazing quality.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] Nburnes:
I've had mine since Monday, as it arrived with my phone. I think is is great as they have been since I first bought one for my Gnex, then N4 and now my N5 here. The buttons are covered but are still audibly clicky and responsive as ever. They were also covered on the Nexus 4 as well and I never had any issue or fault, just as I haven't with the N5's these past couple days.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ethantarheels123:
In my opinion,I like that the buttons are covered, that way it prevents ocd me to keep fidgeting with the ever-so-slightly loose buttons :D and they still have A LOT of clicky feedback. Best of both worlds
[Nexus 5 Accessories] canabals:
Has anyone tried wireless charging with this case?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Felchy:
I have been using a Diztronic case on my S3 for over 16 months. I have probably dropped it 50 times on various surfaces including concrete and tile but my S3 has not sustained any damage.

In my mind the Diztronic cases are a perfect combo of protection and compactness.

(I'm still waiting for both my N5 and its Diztronic case to arrive)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] firemedic1343:
I've read that the S3 glass was better for drops than the N5. I guess you'll tell us, hopefully you drop it 50 more times! :laugh:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Daddy_617:
Diztronic makes good cases but idk on my s2 it was about a two feet drop but right at the corner so it damaged the phone still buying them though lol had it on every phone I got s2, s3, nexus 4, galaxy s4, and just bought one for nexus 5 but also bought a spigen idk they looked cool but had bad reviews on amazon from power button
[Nexus 5 Accessories] maidenboston:
i agree, the case feels the same as the back of the black nexus 5

(also yea, was the best case for my gnex too)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] egenesis1:
How is this case against Ringke Slim? They look the same but which one has better material and protection.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] AdamUpNorth:
Yes, wireless charging works fine with this case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] fireproofrev:
Meanwhile my N5 arrived and yeah, the diztronic GNex TPU case feels very simliar to the black back of the N5 (I love this touch feeling). Now I need to have this diztronic case also for my N5 :D. Have to check services which can forward the package from US address to germany.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] timtlm:
My quick review of this case.

I've had a previous diztronic for my evo lte, and eventually traded it for an incipio tpu style case because I preferred the button coverage. I was glad to see the button coverage on this version, and it couldn't be easier to press the buttons. Personally I would prefer if it were matte textured on the front rim. I'm impressed overall with the quality of this tpu case. It appears nearly seamless, unlike cheap tpu cases that have a seam line all the way around the sides. It is slightly imperfect around the charge port, but it has to be cut from somewhere.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ethantarheels123:
Yep, agree completely. The diztronic is one of the few cases that keeps the shape of the N5. Think of your N5 simply gaining some weight when putting on the diztronic. Same shape and dimensional proportions and feel, just a tad bigger.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Gibsonflyingv:
Nillkin Nexus 5 case

Delete. Posted in wrong place.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] enaybee:
I received mine today. Its okay. Not too happy with the camera lens cutout. I saw another photo on a black phone. Looks perfect. Mine is not.

Photo attached.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Enhanced:
Hmm yeah I see it. Probably worse for you because your phone is white too.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] tamshiwen:
Got the n5 and diztronic today. First impression is the tpu case looks and feels thinner than the nexus 4 case (almost half as thick). Kinda worried whether case will protect the phone from short drops from pants pocket height. Other than that, quality case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gtso:
Ordered this one. I don't have it yet but hopefully when it arrives it'll fit perfectly on my device.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] LuBi:
I'd contract Diztronic, let them know, and I bet they'll ship you a replacement. I've always read about them providing great support regarding case defects.

That's the second time I read that.. Between the charger port defect, that camera cutout, the covered button, and the reported reduction in thickness I decided to get the Cruzerlite bugdroid in blue. The color selection from Cruzerlite, the qc issues from Diztronic on this first version, and this video:

[YOUTUBE]KY9Svj9fYVg[/YOUTUBE]

sealed the deal for me.. I look forward for the rev 2 from Diz so I can get a black case. :good:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] happy2000hk:
Got the case today. Its really nice and soft. I wouldn't call the port a defect, it just has the marks on it. It doesn't cover my camera, and the buttons are so soft it feels nice.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ST24085:
Hello sir.

I was going to request pics of a white phone in this case as I have both on order. Can you show some more pics of different angles of the phone in the case? Specifically where the white shows kinda. Wondering if it will look funny.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] pikkiri:
Anyone have this case and the cruzerlite one and can comapre? Trying to decide between the two.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] raffstyle:
PURPLE color is now available. photos from Amazon and diztronic site looks really nice!

I wonder if this matte purple case is the same as on Nexus 4 which is matte transparent purple or its a bit more solid color.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] SykesAT:
I emailed them a question and they replied fairly quickly.

I must say, I'm surprised that purple is their second color. Would have thought that white, blue or red would have been better sellers.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] evodon84:
I received my Diztronic as well as a Ringke Fusion case on Friday. I was interested in the Fusion because I wanted to show off the back of my phone while still maintaining some protection. The Fusion arrived first so I installed it. It fits alright but I can't say that I was impressed by it. Just don't really like it. I got the gray one. Not a big fan of it in person.

I ordered a Diztronic because I have always been a fan of black TPU cases. I had a Diztronic on my S4 and loved it. As soon as I installed it I was happy. The cutout for the camera and the speakers is a little off so I think I'll be sending some pics to Diztronic in hopes they can improve the case. Either way it's more than worth it for $10.

Also to note, I ordered the Diztronic off of Amazon. It wasn't available for prime but I got it with like 3-5 day shipping. I got an email about 30 minutes after my order that it had shipped and I received it in 2 days. Great service as usual from Diztronic.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] supernoman:
Really? Purple? Give me white or clear matte. I have Diztronic cases since the Gnex and currently on GS4. I guess I'll email them.

I'm sure I'd be surprised at the sales number for purple. My wife would probably use and android phone over her iphone if I slapped a purple case on one.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wideasleep1:
My wife has the purple Diz on her SGS3 and loves it. It's a different purple though...this one is too bright for her.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Okaay:
Had it for a few days, great case. I like that it keeps the soft touch feel at the back.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bekyndnunwind:
I had this case for my Galaxy Nexus, so went ahead and ordered for my N5.

I am actually disappointed by it, and have taken it off my phone. I didn't like the glossy look of the front edges that go around the screen, it looks cheap (i know - its an inexpensive case and I shouldn't be complaining). For some reason i think it should be 100% matte finish with no glossiness to it.

Even though this case is ultra thin, it ultimately destroyed the sleek attractive look of the phone. If they come out with one that doesn't have glossy edges I would order that one.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wideasleep1:
I think the gloss top looks elegant while I appreciate the matte back for grip..they designed it the way I would. :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mytouchrocks:
I saw two posts about camera cutout issues, this is a big flaw to me. One post's picture showed the phone is white, what color is your nexus 5?

I have a white nexus 5 and still waiting for the Diztronic case delivery. I hope it is just a defected product, and not actual incompatibility with all white models.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] evodon84:
I don't have a way to take a picture of my phone at work but it looks the same as the post above. I have the white phone. It's off a little bit. Like the cut out is to close to the top of the camera lens. It's about even on both sides of the camera lens though.

I guess its up to personal preference. I kind of expected it wouldn't be perfect considering how soon it was launched but to me it doesn't matter to much. Even if they improve it and make it perfect im not sure that I care haha.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] android_4life:
Since some of you guys have used this case on other phones, has any one dropped their phone with this case on it (with s2, s3,s4,etc.)and did the phone go undamaged? The reason I asked is because this is a cheaper price then most cases and I seen cheap ones countless times either break or the phone flies out and gets damaged to.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wideasleep1:
Dropped my N4 with Diz more times than I care to recall...N4 is fine. Concrete wood floors and blacktop.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] evodon84:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] mytouchrocks:
I cant speak for recent phones, but the old mytouch 4g with Diz i replaced with nexus 5 dropped once from about 1 meter high, with no scratches. the case had slight mark that was wiped away with no problem.
