are there any cases that

1.replaces the backcover of the phone, to make phone slim

2.covers all corners and edges

3.cutouts for buttons

because it seems like existing cases fits phone+backcover.
[Moto G Accessories] alexkta:
That Incipio case seems like the best case right now
[Moto G Accessories] Warrior868:
Only the rugged Moto cases which aren't even available yet. Might have a long wait.

This will be the Moto G Grip Shell - start January:
[Moto G Accessories] juanbiohazard:
Those grip shells seems pretty awesome, i hope they'll have a nice price.

Just oredered a Ringe slim from ebay, it should arrive in 10-12 days. Let's hope it comes out ok.

Just received this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Skin-...t=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item51b686ee7b

Pretty decent for hte price, only annoying part is that the plastic shell is glued on not very straight, still useable though
[Moto G Accessories] death__machine:
Had my eye on Incipio cases but they don't deliver to UAE or India, means no easy way I can get it. Same goes for any of the official motorola shells too. Though I don't really like the flip cover, only like that it adds texture. The Motorola Rugged Shells look good though! But they'll sell for what, $30? That's pretty pricey I think.

What I can get is any of these:

Ultra Thin Rubberised Hard Plastic Matte Cover($7)

http://www.ebay.in/itm/Motorola-MOT...&var&hash=item33894e8c3e&_uhb=1#ht_1817wt_986

Amzer Pudding TPU Case ($7)

http://www.junglee.com/Amzerâ®-Pudd...id=1388858617&sr=8-1&keywords=motorola+moto+g

Nillkin Super Frosted Hard Back Cover($14)

http://www.ebay.in/itm/Nillkin-MOTO...Mobile_Accessories&hash=item4ace3c5063&_uhb=1

I liked the TPU case I had with my One X, so wouldn't mind trying the Amzer Pudding (No pun intended). But Nillkin cover comes with a Screen Protector as well, so probably gonna decide between these two. I'll mostly buy one of these from India and have someone bring it when they come UAE.
[Moto G Accessories] dragonnis:
I just can't bring myself to put a cover on that ruins the look of this beautiful phone. Love the shape, the color, that dimple on the back. Might just end up getting the Flip Shell or Grip Shell (depending on how well the Grip Shell protects the screen).
[Moto G Accessories] Warrior868:
i know the feeling , i wanted the grip shell but its taking so long to come out. Might consider one later down after it launches , the price would be lower too
[Moto G Accessories] wolfen69:
Protection is the name of the game for me. I work hard for my money and am not gonna risk dropping it and breaking it. Good luck with yours.
[Moto G Accessories] Wh00sher:
How do people find the flip case in use ?

I was going to get one then started won dering if it would get in the way whilst you are making a call ? I know it folds flat against the rear of the phone when opened 180 degrees, but does it make the phone less comfortable to hold ?

The more I think about it, the more I feel it would be `clumsy` in daily use. I`m not leaning towards one of the rear `clip` cases in this thread and a screen protector instead.
[Moto G Accessories] Jimmy2u:
My MOTO G case

Well I use this TPU case for my MOTO G and its a very fine case to use...nice grip..nice precise cut outs so...and not so much pricey even...Nice case to go for...worth of cost....So i Like it...:)
[Moto G Accessories] neilt0:
I have it and I love it. It is a little bit awkward to begin with but you eventually work out how to hide that flap.

The way it turns your screen on and off like opening a fridge door is really neat.

And the materials it's made of are really nice. It gives it a really premium feel.

Two different cases

So I received today two different cases from China and hereby my thoughts.

The first one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Motorol...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item5d478c6d87

The look is very nice and minimalistic, you'll hardly even notice it when looking at your phone from the front. From the back it looks very clean and nice, the matte colour definately stands out. But due to the clean matte surface it feels very slippery in your hands.

The protection element is not as present due to the cutouts on the bottom and the upper side. I consider the cutouts for the buttons to be somewhat annoying as I can't reach the buttons very well. I have to put noticeably more effort in order to push any of the side buttons. Another negative is that when holding the phone in one hand, the cutout on the buttom can feel very sharp to the hand. For me the sharpness is thus annoying that it's a dealbreaker.

The second one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-BK-TP...t=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item2ecc09492c

The quite famous by now S curve cover is available for a wide variety of devices. The look from the front isn't as minimalistic as with the first cover. Due to the protection element being much higher, it will cover the sides of the phone at the front. From the back it doesn't look as clean and minimalistic either as the first one. And the shiny part of the S curve is phrone to fingerprints.

The protection element is much higher than on the first one. Not only does it cover a greater part of the phone, it also feels less slippery in the hand. The grips on the side contribute to a higher firmess in the hand. The side buttons are covered, but despite that the 'connection' to the buttons is there as if there was no cover at all in between your fingers and the buttons.

Overall the second one feels much better and I have a much more secure feeling when handling the phone. Therefore I will be using the S curved cover from now on.
[Moto G Accessories] Sizzers:
On every phone I've owned I've always had a vertical leather pouch to keep it from getting scratched, marked etc when carrying it around in my jacket or pocket but in actual use its always been naked.

Now apart from the fact that here in the UK I was unable to find one single case which had anything approaching the correct dimensions - probably the nearest I found was the Krusell Luna 3XL but that's too wide - I always felt a bit nervous using my phone outdoors because I find the G a little slippy in the hand. So I did my research and finally settled on the Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit case which arrived this morning.

Well all I can say is I think it's brilliant! Fits like a glove, nice and grippy, and no more worries about it slipping out of my hand. Now I paid over the odds as there's only one stockist of the case in the UK but for me it was well worth it for the peace of mind it will give (will be using a phone sock to protect the screen in my pocket). Unfortunately they're only available in boring black, awful clear, and I don't like the white one, so I've gone on to Amazon and bought one in purple but that will take anything up to three weeks to arrive.

Anyway, thought I'd share.

Edit: Just to add on as in a bit of rush earlier the cut outs are perfectly aligned, not at all bulky which I was a little concerned about beforehand, and actually makes the phone look better to my eyes. Also looks a decent lip around the frame to hopefully help the screen in the event of a fall.
[Moto G Accessories] protoc0l:
Amzer TPU, very nice

I just got my Amzer TPU case, I like it, very nice, and much better than the $3 rubberized case I had on it. I still cant post links yet, but its the same one mentioned earlier for $7 (google moto g amzer tpu)

Fits nice and snug, very thin, very little thickness added, and has covers over the side buttons. Has a good lip on it to prevent scratches when lying face down. Side bumper/grip area is nice, but a little shiny/slick, would prefer something a little more rubbery.

no bad temp case for just 2quid
[Moto G Accessories] death__machine:
Just received my nillkin case and it's not bad at all. The cut outs for buttons and ports are good, but the bottom and top is exposed. It came with a screen protector which isn't bad, pretty smooth to the touch.

Best part is I like the texture at the back of the phone now, the stock moto shell was not really that good to feel lol!
[Moto G Accessories] artov:
I'm considering as well to buy the Nillkin case. Does it trap any dust into the sides of the screen and does the texture in the back give you a much better grip on the phone?
[Moto G Accessories] death__machine:
Dust : Not really, I've seen worse with the TPU case I had for my x (one x xD )

Grip: Definitely.

Incipio dual pro

I got the Incipio Dual Pro a few days ago. So far so good, fits nicely, makes the buttons easier to press and reduces jiggle, and adds some bezel/screen protection. Let me know if you have any questions.
[Moto G Accessories] BarnOwl:
I Like this case a lot! Could you please tell me how thick the case + phone is? And are the buttons working properly? I am thinking of getting a white one.:good:
[Moto G Accessories] adbyerly:
It's about 1.5cm thick (case+phone). Buttons work great, feel 'clickier' than without the case. Also my power button is a little wobbly, but the case makes it feel solid.
[Moto G Accessories] BarnOwl:
Ok, thanks for your answer. I recieved the case today and I am surprised to see it doesn't put a lot of bulk on. And, yeah, the buttons work great!

Ringke 'Delight' vs Cruzerlight Bugdroid Intelligent Flip cases.

I've had this this Ringke 'Delight' flip/folio case for a week or so now. Ordered from Amazon UK - £9.99 when I ordered - dispatched from the US - 3 weeks delivery.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00H1X8DVC/

Mrs neu - smurph has got this Cruzerlight Intelligent Bugdroid (again from Amazon UK) - out of stock now but was £14.99 - dispatched from UK - next day delivery.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00H9RMUMS/

Pros / Cons.

The Cruzerlight is a bit heavy in the hand and slightly padded, and in real life it is a bit 'bulgy' looking when all closed and kind of makes the phone look bigger than it really is. It doesn't really like folding into the stand configuration shown in the pics (because of the padding), and tends to jump out of this configuration. It is also a bit resistant to folding the cover right back to use one handed. It includes a magnet to power up/down the screen on opening and closing like the official Moto flip case which is sweet. The clasp is magnetic as-well. Overall probably a slightly higher level of protection than the Ringke.

The Ringke looks very nice - its a perfectly flat when closed, but probably offers a little less protection as the cover is not padded in any way. There is a magnet on the clasp, but not one to power up/down the screen - it's no big deal though as the functionality can be emulated with the Gravity Screen app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.plexnor.gravityscreenofffree&hl=en_GB. It folds into the stand configuration very easily, and is stable in that position - I can use it like this in the car no problem sat on a dash shelf and secured with one of those sticky grip pad things e.g. www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B006VTQ1IY. The cover can be folded right back with ease as-well. The only real downside is the clasp configuration - it gets in the way of the volume buttons a bit when open.

Both are very well made and give good access the ports. Both have cut-outs on the rear for the speaker,camera and flash. The Rinkge also has a front cut-out for the front speaker. Neither have cut-outs for the notification LED.

EDIT TO ADD: Something I hadn't done it check what if any effect the magnets on both these cases have on accuracy of the phones Magnetometer. The magnet on the Rinkge's case's clasp is strong enough to give erratic results on compass apps :rolleyes: boo hiss. The magnets on the Cruzerlight case are a lot weaker and compass apps can find North with no problem :good:

Overall I have no hesitation to recommend the Ringke case, and slight reservations for the Cruzerlight reservations about both cases. I don't like the bulkiness of the Cruzerlight, and the stand configuration that is useful to me personally doesn't really work. The strong magnet and the clasp postion on the Ringke are an irritation, but other than that it's a great case.
[Moto G Accessories] Warrior868:
Does it get dirty easily?
[Moto G Accessories] Warrior868:
anybody has any pics of the Case-Mate naked tough case for Moto g?
[Moto G Accessories] BarnOwl:
The case does not attrackt any dirt as the original Moto case does.(FI greasy fingerprints do not show) It is some material with a very smooth, rubbery feel.

You will see some lint on the uncovered silicone parts after taking it out of your pocket but I blow that off easily.

If my white case is really dirt resilient, time will tell.

Just ordered this (It was $5 when I ordered it, looks like seller raised price by a couple bucks since), estimated to arrive next week so I'll update with a review then. Basically I'm not 100% satisfied with the other 2 cases I have (Ringke Slim and Moto G Grip Shell) and this seems like a combo of the two + has port covers as well as button covers (headphone jack looks exposed still but recessed, I'm hoping my headphone dust plug will still fit with the case on).

Fosmon Hybo Snap case (TPU + polycarbonate)

Was $5 free shipping on Amazon but seller has raised price to $6.95 I believe since I purchased. Still very cheap.

- Covers all ports/holes/buttons

- textured sides for grip

- 2 part : TPU bumper/port covers + hard (polycarbonate) back/side cover

Available colors: (I got the black one)

[Moto G Accessories] angomy:
Updated the Fosmon Hybo Snap review, the built-in protector is (after making a cut in the protector with a pair of scissors) easily removable (photos included in the review thread). I'd say it's my go-to case right now for protection and I'm debating on whether or not to pick up the blue version as well :good:

I'm getting the Incipio NGP (their fancy term for TPU, supposedly a high-grade version) case soon as well, will post a review once I do receive it.

Hi although the official grip cover looks cool on the device and doesnt add extra thickness to the device.. I am not very confident about how well it would protect the device..hence I have been thinking about getting a Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit Case for the phone. Any of you who have been using the Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit Case kindly provide some feedback..how thick does it make the phone ? Does it really protect the phone well ?
[Moto G Accessories] reeved:
Love this CHEAP case

http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Soft-Ge...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item2333a3d51d

got it off ebay for a small price.

REALLY pleased with it.

When feel it without the phone, it feels quite flimsy. It can bend like an S line case.

But then when you put it on... Its amazing. It fits firmly onto it. I haven't had an S line case on my Moto G but ive had experience with them on other phones. The ones ive seen dont fit quite well and are quite loose. This isn't the case with the case.

It might be a bit hard to take off and put on but its because of its snug fit.

It has a little bit of thickness but I think it just helps with the protection. The little added thickness and the snug fit make it good for small drops.

The cutouts are perfect, it has 3 cutouts for camera, speaker and LED Flash and it feels REALLY good pressing the side buttons and placing my fingers on them. The only thing id complain about is a 1mm extra on the bottom of the camera cutout and 1mm on top of the flash cutout, but that doesnt interfere with anything and its just a superficial thing.

It has a nice matte finish on the back and a glossy finish on the sides.

The front is a little elevated to prevent the screen from coming into contact to your desk or table etc.

Great access to ports.

And it feels great just holding the phone with this case on.

Im using the black version of this case. (see my above review)

http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Soft-Ge...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item2333a3d51d

It seems to be clear and transparent. Its cheap and good and ships worldwide for free so why dont you try it?

[Moto G Accessories] djpailo:
I'm getting the phone delivered. Provided it has no faults for a while, I'll be getting the "Otterbox Commuter Moto G" case. It costs quite a bit at £20 though which is the only dilemma.

Regarding cases, is there any danger the phone may overheat e.g. when playing an intensive game for instance.
[Moto G Accessories] matmutant:
I bought this one : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2786131 (didn't wanted to spend that much money for a case)

Like you, I was wondering about (over)heating, but seems there is no impact until now (in fact the battery itself prevents SoC to correctly cool down, the case doesn't take much part of it : this is not an aluminum device)

In addition, if you don't mind about dust/dirt you could drill some holes in the center of the case and add a USB powered fan :silly:
[Moto G Accessories] djpailo:
Haha that'd be awesome to carry around that set up!

Just got the phone delivered, everything seems to work, just quickly, is there any tell tell signs of a fault product (like the back lift on screen on the early Nexus 7 tablets)? I still been looking for cases, but I'm waiting for micro sim on my contract to be delivered so I can proceed with unlocking and making sure everything works that end too. Getting a few free micro sims delivered so i can unlock it earlier too :D.

Back on topic, the only thing I hate about the otter case is the name. Like, It'll feel a bit weird holding a phone saying "otter" on it. The target aegis cases are £18 on amazon but £24 for a black one. Its also from a company with only 72% rating (thats quite low for an amazon rating IMO) so I'm not too sure haha. I don't like the case from ebay, that stand thing kinda annoys me and the removal of it looked worse for me imo. I may also just get the moto g grip case which is cheaper.
[Moto G Accessories] matmutant:
:highfive:

I could have make it look much better, but I wanted to be able to revert to clip if needed :cyclops:

Obviously Otterbox or Trident are better (i hope so, it's 8 times more expensive!!) but the price ratio was my major point.

I didn't bought that case for everyday life, it is mostly to protect the phone in the bag for summer hiking sessions (5$ for 2 months use is good ;) )

The best question is :

What do YOU want to do with your device, and what are your needs

if you want something cheap, this one could be an option :

(don't ask too much about design to these cheap cases :silly: )

Main issue is that it is hard to find good review about these cheap cases ...
[Moto G Accessories] BitingChaos:
I am *NOT* happy with the official Motorola Grip shell for the Moto G.

I like how it's slim on the device (since you have to take the back off the Moto G to put it on), I like the rubberized grip around the edges, and I like the "lip" it has that protects the front.

I do not like the back. It had a weird, smooth plastic feel to it, and it seems to be deteriorating after just a few *days* worth of use.

2,937px × 2,203px image:

http://i.imgur.com/yjsfOFo.jpg

Those scuffs and marks are from putting it in my pocket (no keys). I cannot wipe or clean them off. The case looks very worn-in already, like old leather.

It makes my Moto G look like it is several years old, even though it is the new LTE model that was just released.
[Moto G Accessories] djpailo:
I mostly want something that will stay on the phone permanently. I want something that feels good to hold (I'm thinking rubber etc) and something which protects the edges which I've read is important.

Can I also ask whether these cases, the otter, the trident Aegis etc could be used in conjunction with a tempered screen protector like this:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/atdoshop-Ha...3198592&sr=8-1&keywords=tempered+glass+moto+g

I also found this, "TUDIA Ultra Slim Melody TPU Bumper Protective Case for Motorola Moto G SmartPhone ": what are people's thoughts on this:

Also, what is a gel case?

Just because i could do it :silly:

[MENTION=4765052]djpailo[/MENTION] : 'gel' usually refer to silicone case (like TPU, but more gummy)
[Moto G Accessories] Kumczak:
Hello.

Could you tell me, how do you apply this case on the phone? Do you have to take the back cover off or you put it on the original back cover? I've been browsing some German ebay listings and on one it said something about removing the original back cover.

Thanks!
[Moto G Accessories] neu - smurph:
It fits over the existing back cover.

Case still in use - about 6 months old now and the corners are starting to look a bit battered.
[Moto G Accessories] Kumczak:
Thanks for your response.

I've found some cheap ones that i might try out when i get the device. 6 months for 7euro is okay.
