Found this site (http://www.imobile-wireless.com/cases/336-google-nexus-5-lg-oem-hard-shell-case-cover-by-lg.html) that actually shows what the case looks like when looking at the screen.

Looking forward to some reviews today!

^that's the bumper case

anyone have a working tracking number? ups doesn't recognize mine
[Nexus 5 Accessories] PDP///M:
That looks like the original bumper case from Google not the hard shell.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jimburke57:
Has anyone's tracking shown anything? The email links me to UPS, but package buddy pulls up USPS.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] resynx:
Still no info. over here. Sometimes it takes 24 hours to update though XD
[Nexus 5 Accessories] andy o:
Mine is a USPS number, apparently tracking is not included.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bahaa89:
Guys anyone has found a link that ships to Europe or Asia ??
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
It's only PureMobile that seems to have it atm. Even if it's posted on amazon, ebay, etc. they're the seller for all of them. They only ship to Canada and Murrica.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] green_link:
just ordered mine from ca.shopandroid.com. should be here early next week. they only have 8 left

http://ca.shopandroid.com/lg-hardshell-black/4A123A16462.htm
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Why would you order from there (didn't know they had it) when you could have gotten it from puremobile.ca. Even with the price increase it's $17.99. Mine shipped the other day.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] green_link:
I bought more than just the hard case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Ah okay. Did you need it to get over $50? Because puremobile also had free shipping. So hopefully your order made up the price difference.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] green_link:
i bought a case for my nexus 7 (2013). i didn't need to get over $50 for free shipping but i did anyway. doesn't bother me anyway
[Nexus 5 Accessories] VacTacks11:
hmm you're right. The model number is the same, which is what threw me.

I just bought mine off of amazon.ca (http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00GGL4XNC/) for a couple reasons:

1) After taxes, puremobile total is $18.61. Amazon doesn't charge taxes, so it was flat $19.99. $1.30 difference is important because...

2) Amazon's return policy is incredible. I create an RMA, print-out the return-label, and send it back, no questions asked. puremobile says their return policy is 'no quibble', but if you actually read through it, there are quite a few 'quibbles', including that they can refuse your return, and (and this is the most important thing) we're on the hook for shipping back the case if we don't like it.

The free shipping to us is great, but if we don't like the case? We gotta pay the $5 or $10 to ship it back. I'll pay the $1.30 extra now if it means I won't have to possibly pay $5-$10 later.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] kellybrf:
except that your case was sold by puremobile, not amazon, so it's the same return policy as their site.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] OregonLawyer:
It's a bit different. With Amazon you've got an added layer of protection through their "A to Z guarantee" if there is any kind of dispute.

See http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=1161246
[Nexus 5 Accessories] kellybrf:
that is true, but it's not like puremobile is some upstart company. and that's just for if the company rips him off, it does not mean he'll get free shipping back if he doesn't like it. hell, even with amazon themselves you generally have to pay for returns if you don't like something
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Jason_MCG:
Is anyone's tracking number actually working? Mine has said "NOT AVAILABLE" since I received my shipping confirmation... :confused:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] resynx:
Was wondering the same. It's been over 24 hours and no information is showing up still :(
[Nexus 5 Accessories] haskida:
My tracking number is working but it's via Canada Post.

2014/02/05

15:15	MONTREAL	Item picked up by Canada Post

15:04	MONTREAL	Electronic information submitted by shipper
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Mine shipped with Canada Post but I didn't even get a tracking number...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] haskida:
You can find the tracking number once you log in their website and look under the order number.

I didn't get mine from the email too.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
Wow I'm pretty shocked. I wasn't expecting to see an email saying my order shipped! I thought I had canceled it lol. Expected delivery is monday
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
I ordered as guest....
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Jermu^:
I'm thinking of getting the Snap Case (in the pic) or otherwise known as the Official Case from Google Play but I'm wondering if the Spigen GLAS.tR NANO SLIM I have on my Nexus 5 would cause problems with fitting? Does anybody have the case and this protector?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] green_link:
off topic:

i have this case (bumper case) and it has a lip that goes around the front ot the screen (to keep it on). from what i can find with your screen protector is that it probably won't fit as your protector goes edge to edge leaving no room for the case to grab onto the device.

on topic:

my case is in transit!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Jermu^:
Yeah, you're probably right. Would be a nice case though, and it costs only 19e here in Finland (pretty cheap for an official case). I'll probably just ask in the shop if I could try it on..
[Nexus 5 Accessories] kellybrf:
my tracking number still returns no info. when I click the link from the email it takes me to ups, but when I search the tracking number it comes up as USPS. still, it's not showing up in either system
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slider112:
The tracking number provided in the confirmation email takes me to UPS, however I realized pretty quickly just by looking at it that it was in fact a USPS tracking number. Once i plugged it in there the info showed up properly, however it did take a few days (ordered Tues 2/4 and no info showed until yesterday, 2/6). Scheduled delivery for me is Mon, 2/10.

Also, through chatting with a customer service rep on their website I learned that all USA orders w/ free shipping are shipped via USPS First Class Mail from Champlain, NY 12919. Just FYI if some of you want more info.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
I am proud to announce that I have received the case!!

Unfortunately it does not say nexus on the back
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jerflash:
Let's see a pic!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
:mad::eek::mad::eek::mad:

If that's true I have the email they sent me confirming it did... Getting my refund as soon as I receive it...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Jason_MCG:
Same. The Nexus logo is the only reason I bought it. :rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] andy o:
Meh, if it's not gonna say the (good) N word then I'd rather my case say "Ringke" than "LG".
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
It sucks that it doesn't have the nexus branding but it is a sweet case though. Really really thin, doesn't even feel like a case is on the phone
[Nexus 5 Accessories] EddyOS:
I like it, still gonna get one if I can but it's a shame it doesn't have the Nexus logo on it any more. Why didn't Google allow it seeing as LG made it? Sell them on the Play Store if they're that bothered!! :D

Picture on the phone for reference?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
I'm trying to post a bunch of pics but this xda app keeps only letting me post 1
[Nexus 5 Accessories] EddyOS:
Looks nice - OEM FTW! :D

Wonder if you could it engraved with the Nexus logo?...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Xianku:
Is it made out of the soft touch material?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] nexicon:
Oh wtf man! That's bs! Does it have softtouch feel or is it the same as the white nexus?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
More pics

Here's a few more
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
It pretty much has the same feel as the white nexus. Beside the nexus branding not being on the case, this is exactly what I wanted and expected from it. It doesn't change the feel and shape of the phone at all. It doesn't offer the best of protection for the screen as there's pretty much no lip, but I figured it wouldn't anyways. This is definitely a keeper for me.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ctbear:
Aww man this sucks...and I bought two :cyclops:

It still looks nice...maybe I will wait until it comes then decide if I want to keep them.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] haskida:
I am using the google bumper case with spigen glas.tr nano. fits fine no problem at all
[Nexus 5 Accessories] biggiestuff:
How disappointing that there is no Nexus logo on there. Thanks for the pictures. That sealed my decision.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Jason_MCG:
No lip on the front, and no Nexus logo... :crying:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slider112:
Dammit. :mad:

With no logo black is going back...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] OregonLawyer:
Thanks for the pics. I'm glad to know this case exists and I will be ordering two.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jimburke57:
Well there is always the option of slapping a dbrand skin on the back.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] EvanJ18:
I thought about it but chances are the LG would show behind the U and S
[Nexus 5 Accessories] spicydicy:
Does the case have the chance it will scratch the corners of the phone like the ringke slim and spigen ultra thin? Are the edges sharp?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
Edges aren't sharp at all. And no, it doesn't seem like the corners will get scratched at all like the other cases do.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] OregonLawyer:
I don't care about the nexus branding. I just want a high quality thin case.

I bought one white and one black for my black nexus.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] thetonyclifton:
I still want a white one logo or not, is there a UK seller yet?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
You won't regret getting them. I think this is the highest quality extra thin case you can possibly get for a phone. I'm absolutely loving this thing
[Nexus 5 Accessories] EddyOS:
BOOM!

http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/cat/Nexus-5-Cases.htm?man_id=34

£25 though...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] nexicon:
Is the lg logo indented? Or printed?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] andy o:
You can always put a colored paper or something behind the skin, but that's not the problem for me. I would think that since the skin is not specifically designed for the size of the case that it would just look like sticker. Anyone has pictures of a skin on one of these types of cases?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] EvanJ18:
Not mine but I'm doing the same once the matte black comes out. Turned out great.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] crzycrkr:
I had that problem with the Ringke, but the Spigen didn't have that issue. Also, my Ringke started cracking after taking it off a few times. The Spigen is slightly softer plastic and not cracking
[Nexus 5 Accessories] andy o:
Thanks, looks better than I expected, but the borders of the skin are still easily visible. In any case I already have a Ringke slim if I decide to do this, this LG case doesn't bring anything new to me.

Seems like that guy got the case with nexus logo before legal issues were noted? Lucky him. Still looking forward to my case though! :good:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Paradoxx123:
I don't care for the nexus logo I really like this case tho where is the best place to order from?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] chris6278:
Exactly why i waited to see what ppl actually got before i ordered one. Definitely dont want it now
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
Why exactly don't you want it? No nexus branding?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
That's precisely why I'm returning and getting a refund on mine when it arrives.

I've already got 10+ hardcases. I only wanted this one because of the Nexus branding. Puremobile even replied to my email confirming it did have Nexus on it... That was when I told them I would cancel my order if it didn't...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] chris6278:
Yep pretty much
[Nexus 5 Accessories] luckywabbit:
That's just great, no Nexus logo! Oh wells. I'm sure the case will fit real well and feel well in the hand so no biggie. I just notice that the LG Flip Cover on the play store also has LG logo only, so I guess there is no real Nexus logo case here in the States.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] suparnemo:
Can anyone tell me if the black feels like the soft touch?

Also, does it scratch the edges of the phone?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bblzd:
Any chance you can do a review before sending it back? Specifically, how it compares to the quicksand and other slim cases.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] r a g n o r:
There's any lip to protect the screen touching the table, or it is completely flat?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Jason_MCG:
No lip. In fact, it's actually a bit lower than the front of the phone.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
Well, I dropped my phone yesterday and the case cracked. On one hand, the case did its job and protected my phone. On the other hand, damn it's a fragile case lol. Its just cracked in the spot it landed on.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Sure, I can do that. I don't get the case until Wednesday though, so it will be a few days.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Atticustrd:
Wait no Nexus branding? I could have just got a $2 case from eBay then. Dammit, now I have to go through the hassle of returning it when it arrives.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] nolook:
sucks there is no nexus branding...esp since I have 2 on the way cause bell decided to ship right as I wanted to cancel..

I'll most likely keep 1 anyways and post my comparison with my sharp edged spigen slim fit...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jerflash:
i really want one of these!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Giroyac:
Did you get a mail stating that it is not yet in stock? Any updates
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
I'm not sure what their business hours are, but I put my order in around 3:30pm central. I got a confirmation email that they received the order and that was all. No other email with regards to shipping, or if they have stock or not.

I'll update if they contact me about anything further.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Giroyac:
Awesome, i guess if you didnt receive an email yet stating its not in stock, then they must have it for shipments.. I did contact them by chatting online, and they said they do have them in stock
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jack1984:
Guys, the reference photos look exactly like the LG Quickcover case that is on sale now. The amazon stock photo is the same one shown in the google play store. https://play.google.com/store/devic...er_for_Nexus_5_Black?id=lg_nexus_5_case_black

Even if this is the case, it is $30 cheaper than what the play store is offering, but like others here I'd much rather have just the shell - without the screen cover.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Giroyac:
it does indeed look almost identical, except the shell looks 100% identical to the actual nexus 5 back, as seen on the amazon.

on the play story, all theres going on in the back is a small lg logo .

regardless im waiting a confirmation from fellow members to see if this thing is in stock, so i can go ahead and order one
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jack1984:
I couldn't wait, so I ordered one from Bell already :P I hope you're right.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Giroyac:
please keep us posted if you receive any confirmation, or shipped out emails

or if u get out of stock email like a member on here got

thanks
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
The pictures show the differences in a couple of ways.

The printing on the back. The quick cover is just LG, the hardshell has Nexus branding.

The other (and this is my eyes going OCD lol), is around the side borders, especially near the speaker/mic grills. On the LG quick cover, you can see the cover is there and is closed. The hardshell, doesn't have that at all.

LG quick cover:

LG Hardshell:

Unfortunately, I did get a second email from bell about availability. The wording is slightly different than what was posted already by someone else.

I'm going to check the bell stores tomorrow after work and see if they have any in store. If they do I'll cancel the order, If not I guess I'll wait it out. I really want this case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Giroyac:
That sucks, i contacted bell online couple of times, and they assured me that they do have it in stock, i guess they have no clue what they're talking about.. I also checked a bunch of stores in toronto, and they didn't have any yet. :(

I want this case more than i wanted the actual phone
[Nexus 5 Accessories] herosemblem:
Based on the photos just above me, this LG shell looks like another Spigen ultra slim or Ringke slimwhatever. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I have the Spigen shell actually, and I like it a lot.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Yeah it's the same style of snap on minimalist hardshell, but from the images alone, looks to be a better designed case.

In comparison to the Ringke Slim that I'm currently using, the case rounds and covers more of the bottom/corners (and if it's like the LG quick cover, the entire top may be covered). The power button also, isn't just a cut out that leaves a gap folding over to the rear of the case, but a properly recessed opening, rounded just around the power button. If it's mirrored on the other side, the volume rocker should be a properly recessed opening as well, instead of a big chunk cut out.

The official Nexus branding also adds to the hotness! :D

I like my Ringke Slim, but if I can get a better designed hardshell, with the nexus printing on it, I'm going for it.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] herosemblem:
Kevin, thank you for the details on the design differences between the cases. The Spigen and Ringke cases are great, but do have room for improvement, and it sounds like the LG case might address some of those areas. ?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Yeah, I hope so too. There's nothing wrong with the Spigen or Ringke, but something official, with a little extra refinement from an OEM is always nice.

(Damn, I thought I was being witty having a picture of a bacon kevin bacon, to go along with my name. Didn't think people would think my name was Kevin... hah).
[Nexus 5 Accessories] l3s:
Anybody know what about the front of this case? I read this hard shell based on the official LG QuickCover, which is do not provide front protection (for the glass) without the lid. So I really interested about this hard shell, but I hope there is some "rim" on the front for provide protection if the phone falling directly to the screen.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bblzd:
Hard to say until somebody get's their hands on one. As of now these are still a mystery.

The Nexus branding on the back, matte white/black and a more forgiving price then other official cases are what makes this interesting to me.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] aarontoth:
Just emailed Bell about my order, and got this:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Giroyac:
looool

i have a feeling they have no idea what they're talking about, both times i chatted with them online, they mentioned its in stock and will be at my door step in 3-5 business days
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
I just went to the 3 bell locations here in Winnipeg, and none of them have it. The one lady at St. Vital told me to go check The Source, BB, and FS, as she said they don't carry official branded cases...

I'm pretty sure that when bell says they'll get more in, it means they'll be getting their first shipment in. Every other site has the case up for pre-order. I don't think bell even knows the case exists yet, even though they say it's up for sale on their site...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] spicydicy:
Bingo, I haven't seen it anywhere in winnipeg yet. The first shipment will be out soon I imagine. Post up where you got it and a review when you put it on!

And brave soul going to 3 different places today, you're braver then I am right now with this crap snow. Ha ha ha
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jtwlbz:
I guess its nothing special unless you love lg.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] resynx:
No Nexus branding is disappointing.. But if you're a minimalist like me, then this case sounds very attractive seeing as there is no lip on the front :D Can't wait for mine to get here Monday :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] qtopthisq:
Well the benefits here is that it is OEM quality and is made by the manufacturers. All these other brands like Spigen and Ringke have quirks to them (I had the Ringke slim), this should be a perfect fitting case that is minimal and unobtrusive but high quality.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
It literally is a perfect fitting case
[Nexus 5 Accessories] qtopthisq:
:good: Great to hear! I ordered a white one too, thanks for the pictures by the way! You should probably get one of the top of the phone to show its covered unlike other slim cases but no big deal as more pictures will come anyway.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] andy o:
FWIW I received the black one today, and sure enough, no Nexus logo.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jackattack:
Does it have the same soft touch feel as the phone itself?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] andy o:
Sorry I haven't opened it cause it's going back. I got a Ringke Slim that does have a similar feel as the phone. Just from looking at it it does seem very much like the Ringke's texture.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] omeringen:
Hi,

How can i buy it from England ? Amazon or eBay doesn't send it to Europe at the moment.

There are some on eBay, although they picture the official bumper case. Search for CCH 250 as that's the part number (Mobile Fun also have them in stock, mine should arrive tomorrow)

[Nexus 5 Accessories] andy o:
CCH-250 appears to be this case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jimburke57:
What UPC does that case have?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Pithism:
Not going to lie, i was upset that there was not going to be a nexus logo from seeing the previous posts, but the size, weight and overall construction is amazing. It's so thin it doesn't even feel like i have a case on the phone. I love it.

I also thought I wouldn't like a case with a lip lower than the device, but it makes a nice look and gives the device decent protection.

Hope people aren't detoured because the nexus logo isn't on it, because its really a great case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Boswell20:
That's what I've been trying to say. Amazing looking and feeling case.

Unfortunately I dropped my phone the same day I got the case and cracked the case. The next day I managed to drop my phone again and my screen cracked :( oh well
[Nexus 5 Accessories] resynx:
2nd person I've seen reporting the case broke after 1 drop. Wow, this case sure sounds fragile :eek: Was it a very high drop that the case broke from?

Sorry to hear about your screen though :(
[Nexus 5 Accessories] nexicon:
Oh no! So sorry!

Any way to get it to England or any other European Country ?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] EddyOS:
The hard shell doesn't have the Nexus logo - it was going to and then Google kicked off, hence the delay in the release. Have you not read this thread at all? :p ;)
