100th time I'm recommending this now, Spigen Rugged Armor. Unless you want a briefcase for a case, this is the best case out there imo.
I ordered mine the same day I ordered my phone and couldn't be happier with it, cousin has it too. Looks great, comfortable to hold, power and volume buttons effortless to press, proper cutouts for everything, and phone has been fine dropping it from 5' multiple times (of course, not something you should get in the habit of).
Also recommend this screen protector to go with it as it fits well with the case. Honestly though, as great as the screen protector is, I would opt to go for a glare free screen protector next time. Still, this protector does it's job.

Spigen Rugged Armor Galaxy S7 Edge Case with Resilient Shock Absorption and Carbon Fiber Design for Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge 2016 - Black
Love it. Very nice design, and good protection. It does take 1-2 mm from the edge screen on both sides but I dont care. you can't notice it.
I've had this Spigen case for just under a year and I have had no complaints. It grips well, it holds its shape, and, imo, it looks pretty sharp. $12 on Amazon.

I've got this one, no complaints: LG V20 Case, Ringke [Onyx]
I love my Spigen case.

i really like the diztronic tpu case
a couple friends (who don't know what the OPO looks like) assumed my phone was caseless when they first saw it, its design is that good
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MBS1NA0/ref=sr_ph?ie=UTF8&qid=1408668421&sr=1&keywords=diztronic
I've used Spigen for my last 3 or 4 phones. The Rugged Armor has been great for my s7 edge. It's slightly thinner than Neo Hybrid, and only slightly thicker than the Thin Fit since it sits in front of the bezel on top and bottom.
I can't believe how many people are still bashing the Nexus 6P in this thread, if you have moved on from the phone please unsubscribe from the sub. Wow.
Enjoy your new phone, I recommend a good case, because the phone is quite thin and slippy when cold or when your hands are moist.
This is the one I've used for 2 years -

If cases aren't your thing because of the added bulk then check out the dbrand website for a skin.

I swear by my Spigen
LG G3 reporting in:
Almost feels like the phone of the future.
I've been using the Spigen Rugged Armor since Thursday. It is slim and has some nice protection and a very good feel in the hands.
Looks like a Bear Motion
Slim Case for Google Pixel Case - Bear Motion Premium Back Cover for Google Pixel - Sandy (Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M0NBJ79/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_8KLKzb9C5NB49
The LG G3 has an extended battery that changes it from a 3000 mAh battery to a 9000 mAh. My brother has one and, yeah, it makes the phone thicker, but it's also a case and lasts 3 days with heavy use.
Don't be lazy, link it! Here, I'll do it for you.
In fact, I'll just link to one of the best tempered glass protectors (as agreed on in that thread and from personal use).
Also, I know you said w/o a case, but here's a really awesome slim case that adds barely nothing to the footprint and feels great in hand.
Love my bear motion, super thin and a very nice texture.
https://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Slim-Case-Google-Pixel/dp/B01M0NBJ79
Only minimal protection, though, but I keep a parallax around for days I might risk dropping or damage.
The Spigen Rugged Armor Case is a solid choice imo. (not clear though)
I just placed an order for this (Spigen Rugged Armor Google Pixel Case with Resilient Shock Absorption and Carbon Fiber Design for Google Pixel 2016 - Black):

I got this diztronic case from Amazon, I've dropped my phone quite a few times, even on concrete and it kept it completely safe and unscratched. It also doesn't add that much bulk to it
I disagree with a lot of the Diztronic cons. Since when is ten bucks pricey? Also, "substantial" bulk? Really? It adds a couple millimeters to the front, but this is by design. And I definitely wouldn't consider it a "fingerprint magnet". In my experience, fingerprints only occur when my fingers are greasy from food, and they're easily wiped off.
Uhhh, go to Amazon.ca

Not the greatest battery but this and other alternatives exist: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Warranty-ZeroLemon-Extended-Protection-Protector/dp/B00NVR93IY
Other than that, its a great phone - literally no other issues with it at all.
Not sure how slim you want but I've been very happy with the Spigen Rugged Armor.
All I wish was for it to be a little less slippery. I have mine in a case so it's fine, but I pull it out once in a while to clean out the dust (and to marvel at it's beauty). Every time I do I'm sure it's going to launch itself across the room and end up embedded in the wall.
I have been very happy with the Ringke Onyx:

I love my Maxboost case.
Here's a few pics of it on my Pixel. It's very thin, fits well, and has great coverage. There's a small lip over the front to protect the screen. The bottom doesn't have jagged edges to hurt my pinky with the phone is resting on it, and it has a nice "soft touch" finish. It isn't super grippy, but miles better than slick plastic or the metal on the naked phone.
This. Fairly thin and good grip but offers great protection https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M1EEXWJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_iRPgybXDSEJMY
I just got a Tudia case yesterday. So far I like it. It's a very well made case, with the cutouts perfect and effective. Not a huge fan of the design elements, but whatever. It makes me feel much more comfortable, since the phone is so slippery without it. My only problem (which would be true of any case) is that the ridge around the screen compounds the pre-existing edge detection issues, so that's annoying. Hoping a future update from Essential fixes that however.

I have had the Diztronic TPU case for five months now and I love it. Offers good protection and pulls out of my pocket easily.

what makes it even worse
"new"
There's already a dent (bottom right) and wear around the charging port.
You could buy this which is 310$, this which is 25, this for 12, all 6 skins for 63$, and the Slickwraps for 27$.
310+25+63+12+27 is 437, which is almost 100$ cheaper then your asking price (535). (prices in USD)
I've had good experiences with Spigen in the past so I went with this one: http://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Rugged-Resilient-Ultimate-protection/dp/B016CBFBVI
It seems like it does the job well without adding too much bulk. Not sure how I feel about that faux carbon fiber look on the back though.
If you want a good case just get the carbon fiber spigen case from Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B016CBFBVI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_OMdzCb67XW8Z5
I have had this case for about 2 years now and have dropped my phone more times than I'd like to admit and have no dents/scratches on the phone screen. As for a screen protector just get any tempered glass protector. The 6p is such a nice phone hope you'll enjoy it, I just changed the battery recently and probably going to keep this phone till it officially gives out.

Looks like a very flimsy and thin case. Would it protect the phone if it was dropped in a potentially screen shattering fall?
I purchased this clear case from Amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B016CBF3DE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
Fits like a glove, solid plastic, quite thick but not too thick, and has already protected it. Definitely recommend. Unfortunately, I don't have a camera to take a picture of my camera.
Awesome! You'll love it.
Would recommend a case. I really like this one from spigen: Nexus 6P Case, Spigen [Rugged Armor] Resilient [Black] Rugged Armor Ultimate protection and rugged design with matte finish for Nexus 6P (2015) - Black (SGP11797) ... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016CBFBVI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_oSAvxbVXHMAAB
It's slim and very durable.
I'd also recommend some extra cables. The yoozon are excellent and come in 3 pack of usb-c to USB
Type C Cable, Yoozon® 6.6ft/2m 56k ohm pull-up resistor USB Type C to Type A (USB-C to USB-A) Cable for LG G5, Nexus 6P,Nexus 5X and Other Type-C Supported Devices https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017G8IRQM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_VUAvxb0S60JQ5
Finally. Personally I'd also recommend a tempered glass screen protector.
There are some other cool accessories to look at for VR and stuff, but that depends on your hobbies.
Happy droiding!
I have This screen protector and it's amazing. Also this case fits it perfectly and looks great!
The Spigen Thin Fit is pretty sweet

I bought (or received) about a dozen cases for my Edge, and by FAR, this one is my favorite:

If you're looking for ultra tough/durable, they have a Unicorn Beetle Pro, but I'm not a fan of the bulky Otterbox style cases.

Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro
Doesn't include a screen protector but the plastic in the front makes it feel much more protected in a 360 way. Also it's not very bulky and feels grippy.
If it doesn't work with the Spigen rugged armor case, then 99% it will not work with the Diztronic TPU cases as well .. both of which i own.
Dang it! :(
Most covers that aren't "ultra thin" or "snap on" will do the job just fine. I'm using the Spigen Rugged (not Hybrid) case from Amazon and it suits your requirements. It's probably also one of the best covers I've had for a phone.
I love the ringke onyx for this phone. Good grip on the sides, and pretty good durability and protection. I've used mine everyday for a year, and it looks great. Granted I go into an office everyday, and I'm not out on construction sites. https://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Resilient-Durability-Anti-Slip-Defensive/dp/B01K5I9CB4
These cases actually have a sandstone feel to the back similar to the Oneplus One. I had one of these for one of my devices and absolutely loved it.

The point of these slim cases in my opinion is to protect from scratches from in your pocket or sliding across a table rather than dents and dings that you'd get if you dropped the device. I'd recommend this from personal use. It is slim, protective, and aesthetically pleasing.

EDIT: Added more cases.
I second the Spigen rugged armor case. Was recommended to me, and it's a case that is snug, protective, and very good looking. You shouldn't have trouble putting a screen protector on with it either.

I really like my Caseology Parallax.
Before that, I had the Spigen Rugged Armor which I liked (the power and volume buttons are the best of any case ever) but it's kind of a boring looking case, which is I why I changed to the Caseology Parallax.
more of a smartphone accessory in general, the Scosche Magic Mounts:
https://www.scosche.com/consumer-tech/mounts
used it with my Nexus 5, 6P and now with my Pixel. I just affix a new pad to the back of my case of choice and I can quickly and easily dock my phone in my car.
oh and I guess I should mention my Spigen case

Love mine.
I got this one and love it. Makes the phone all black and is the thinnest case I've found for the phone. It also has just enough lip on the face of the phone to prevent the glass screen from touching when face down.

You can find a good selection of covers for your controllers on amazon. Some look ridiculous but should keep you from breaking them.
For example
Also, for anyone who doesn't have a 3d printer, you can buy almost the same thing on Amazon.

They're garbage, though. My tracking went to shit after putting them on.
If you just want a case, I suggest this. I buy this case for every phone I can, it's slim and very comfortable to hold.
If you want more pronounced buttons, Spigen has a near identical model.
Maxboost thin case, no question asked.

PART TWO -- wrote this before seeing your VIVE arrives... basically tomorrow
-=- recommended accessories -=-
get the Deluxe Audio Strap. this is a MUST HAVE.
https://www.amazon.com/HTC-Vive-Deluxe-Audio-Strap-pc/dp/B06Y2GDXMC/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=htc+vive+deluxe+audio+strap&qid=1555922928&s=videogames&sr=1-1
i don't consider this an accessory...this is just absolutely CRUCIAL. installation took me ~15-20 minutes after watching a youtube video on how to install as the instructions that ship with it are ...lacking. there's a video of a german guy who shows you have to install it easily.... this strap adds not only great sounding, adjustable and comfortable headphones but (more importantly) will secure the HMD in a way that makes the default strap seem laughable. this deluxe strap allows more comfortable wear of the HMD, better cord management and eliminates the need for supplying your own audio (be it earbuds or headphones) while i ordered all of these "accessories" and received them before my VIVE, i decided to try the original / shipped strap before installing the "deluxe" and words can't describe the difference in fit, comfort, and how great the audio from the adjustable integrated earphones sound. the headphones are able to "snap" in an upright position when you are either removing /storing the HMD or just need to lift one up to hear something someone is trying to tell you...
-=-2nd suggestion for "accessories"-=-
probably most important second only to the deluxe audio strap.... get these tripods. you don't want to mount your lighthouses to your wall... with these tripods you are able to place your lighthouses without drilling/mounting. it is way worth the investment as the stands are very secure, adjustable and the lighthouses screw directly into them. no other parts needed, just these two stands... you'll realize that you might have to fine-tune/tweak the placement of the lighthouses slightly, and with these stands you are able to make adjustments (not only in placement but with the ball/swivel you are able to change the angle/pitch etc.) which you couldn't do if you mounted them.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B6FDKZ8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
-=-honorable mention -- not necessary but recommended...-=-
when i purchased my vive i made sure to get a nice stand to set the HMD/controllers on... (...i went a bit overboard with other accessories and for brevity i'll only mention two more accessories that i think you should pick up) here's the HMD/controller stand i purchased for when either storing the vive or to set it on while taking breaks/cooling off... . it isn't an absolute necessity but it gives it a nice place to rest the HMD/controllers during breaks between play (you will sweat a lot even in a cold room, i know i'm out of shape but with titles like sairento, sprint vector, space pirate etcetc i take breaks just to let my face breathe and cool off.) this beats just setting the HMD on the ground or on a nearby table which could easily fall off.... your call, but -- again, protect your investment!

"Skywin VR cable management system"
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0733NN7G8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
-- these are simply pullies that attach to your ceiling, allowing the cable to be out of the way of the ground... personal preference here but i find these very useful (especially with titles where i'm moving around a lot... sairento, gorn, QuiVR etc) ... protip: i went to walmart etc, purchased -several- packs of 3M "Command" large picture and frame hanging strips 16lb "large picture hanging strips" and have them all over my ceiling at different strategic places (depending on if i'm playing a title that requires my entire room i.e having to move my bed for the max. play area, or if i'm playing a title that requires only the smallest room setup or even for sitting) so using the 3M strips instead of the adhesive that comes with the pullies in the kit, i'm able to switch around the location of the pullies to suit each above situation...also, they remove without damaging your ceiling... if you have any questions on this just message me and i'd be happy to elaborate.
-=-
last accessory suggestion -- after watching videos of people punching holes in their walls etc. i decided to grab these protective frames which have saved my walls and possible harm to my controllers when demoing my vive to friends (even though when demoing i always have chaperone on "beginner", floor bounds on etc) it -never- fails that they will try to throw a grenade and hit my ceiling, swing a punch while playing Gorn and instead of my vive controller slamming into the wall, the cage around the circular top part absorbs the impact and deflects/redistributes the force from one point of contact to several. just throwing this out there, just in case you or someone you are showing it to will be inadvertently throwing your controller into your wall

final thoughts/closing: hmm. well, i think i said a LOT here and hope that your experience with installation is pleasant. again, let us all know how your first experience went and feel free to ask any questions.
welcome to the subreddit, welcome to the VIVE family and congrats on embarking on this journey together with us

I bought 3 cases:
I've used Spigen cases before but this one had weird sharp notches on the corners at the back to prevent the wobble from the camera section protruding, that turned me off that case.
The bumper seemed ok but was a little bulkier than I wanted and mine didn't contain the rear screen protector either
I ended up settling for the ESR case and am still using it now. It's soft TPU and fits snugly. I have the dark one (to go with the dark phone) and you can still see the logo and stuff through the back of the case. It has the corner drop protection and the slightly raised ridge prevent the camera or the screen from touching the surface you put it on (assuming the surface is hard). They all seem to work with the Qi chargers I have too.
I took all 3 cases into work as another guy was also getting the phone. He checked them all and also ended up buying the ESR case.
On the downside, I've just bought some new gloves that allow me to use the touchscreen and the case seems a little slipper with the gloves on, but then I expect a lot of cases would (unless you get those weird cases with all the ridges and angles which I'm not keen on).
I'm always on the lookout for other better, more suitable cases but haven't found one I liked yet.
Ive had my X for about a month, switching over from the Galaxy S8 so heres my experience
> What kind of case should I get for the X
I have a tempered glass screen protector for the screen and a really chunky bumper case with a clear plastic back (https://www.amazon.co.uk/iPhone-Spigen%C2%AE-Cushion-Technology-Protection/dp/B074CMHQW5/ref=sr_1_6?s=telephone&ie=UTF8&qid=1524581014&sr=1-6&keywords=iphone+x+case) so you can still see the lovely apple logo. I use this as it is grippy, adds a bit of heft to the phone and also the camera cutout is protruded so the lens never touches the surface when i put the phone down. Also, a bit of a placebo but it does give me a bit of drop confidence as the rubber bumper is quite thick and reinforced. If you play alot of games the extra size makes it comfortable to hold for long periods although that same heft might be a downside for gym use. Its great for taking pics as the lens has a low chance of ever being damaged or scratched.
> Would I be a fool to start my iPhone X life with it being a blank slate instead of having the Apple techs clone my current phone setup onto it today?
Im a nerd and always start from scratch on all phones I get cos i enjoy the experience but if you 're in the Apple eco system I guess it would only benefit you by transferring your stuff across?
> do magnets do any damage to the IPhone X
I have a magnet mount in my car and have not had any issues as of yet
> Is there anything I can now do better or differently with my iMac by having the X
I dont have a Mac but I don think theres anything in addition to the X that can be done that other iPhones cant do. The extra spec bump in video recording is great, depends on how seriously you want to get into it if you want to consider getting better equipment.
> is my dumpy series 0 watch going to be a. Detriment to the glory that is the X
I dont have an Apple Watch but really want to get one so this would also be good for me to know lol
> And finally——— any X owners feel like suggesting a game or a two or an app that is just a beast on the X
I dont game much on the X as of yet but when I had an iPhone 6, I purchased Star Wars Knights of the Old republic and played it like ass.
I also bought the game again on the Galaxy S8 and although alot smoother, it still crashed alot. However, on the X it is just a dream. Plays beautifully!
Also, one thing I would recommend is getting a 12w iPad charger for the X, charges much faster compared to in the box charger and it does not require you to get an expensive USB C to lightning cable, you can just use the regular lightning cable.
Although it has a lot of added texture and is not nearly as minimalist looking as the Arch S design, the TUDIA Tamm is a matte TPU case for the Essential Phone : https://www.amazon.com/Essential-TUDIA-Carbon-Lightweight-Absorption/dp/B0762F2T19

no i didnt have ascreen protector unfortunately... i havent broken a phone in about 7-8 years... its strange as im a welder and you would think it would happen often. alas when my insurance sorts it i will buy a tempered glass one
This one has been amazing for the last year.
Anyone have any idea how the Spigen Rugged Armor compares to this?
I mean, I'm not planning on having any 11-foot phone drops (knock on wood) but this thing looks pretty nifty.
I have this case as well. I'd say it feels similar to a nexus 5. It adds some grip for sure. Makes one handed operation easier.

I prefer finding a case I like, like a Spigen Rugged Armor, and then use a lycra/spandex card pocket. Card Ninja is my favorite.

Just go with the Spigen Rugged Armor. It says it is for the Oneplus 3 but it will also fit the Oneplus 3T. It looks like a hard case but it is actually thin and malleable while still offering good protection.

HANDS DOWN.
This is the one I ordered for my Pixel and love it! I tried the Maxboost one and while it's slim enough it's not as grippy as I prefer

I have this case and I love it.
Thirded, it's amazing Link for OP
Diztronic is the go-to recommendation. TPU is basically like rubber but more resistant to tearing and puncturing.
They also have a beefier "Ultra" version: http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Ultra-TPU-Case-OnePlus/dp/B00OSS12Z2
The clear case from Oneplus does not really protect the top or the bottom of the phone. It just protects the back and the side and it's slippery as hell.
I would go a diztronic case
Diztronic
and a tempered glass screen protector. The most popular one it seems is Orzly, although I've had issues with it, it seems to be the best one from reviews
Orzly
There is no cases out right now that will keep the sandstone look unless you get a clear case but it'll still make it look washed out. You can get an aluminum bumper case but it cases reception issues.
I bought the Tudia case when I first bought the phone but I found that it added too much bulk to the phone and caught way too many fingerprints on the glossy back.
I've since bought the Diztronic TPU case and I love it. I would definitely recommend it if you were looking for a matte black case! (Link: http://www.amazon.ca/Diztronic-Matte-Black-Flexible-OnePlus/dp/B00MBS1NA0)
Non-mobile: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MBS1NA0/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/189-8013986-4539230
^That's ^why ^I'm ^here, ^I ^don't ^judge ^you. ^PM ^/u/xl0 ^if ^I'm ^causing ^any ^trouble. ^WUT?
I've had two cases so far, The Diztronic case that that has been mentioned, and this one.
The Diztronic I had first since everyone recommended it. It is really well made, fits nicely, its thin, all around great except... it's really slippery. Makes it difficult to use with one hand without it sliding off my palm. Multiple times I almost dropped the phone because of this.
Then I got Tudia case. I wanted something with a little more grip. This one has smooth/glossy border around the sides which kind of 'sticks' to your skin, making it much easier to use one-handed less likely to be dropped. On the down side, it does hold fingerprints around that thin border area. The quality is a bit lower as well, you can see the the lines from the molding process (which you can't on the Diztronic).
Overall, I'm kind of torn. The Diztronic is much nicer to look at, but the Tudia feels safer and makes the phone easier to hold. I'm going to give each more time, but thought I'd share my thoughts.
I got mine off Amazon. It really does make the phone a brick. If you wear tight pants or have tiny hands I can't recommend it.
I use the zerolemon 8500mAh battery pack. It's huge, but I can go a few days between charging.

Not a fan of constantly removing the additional covers, and the transparent corners look strange to me, almost cheap. Prefer the spigen ultra hybrid. I like the more serious finish around the corners and how it's still transparent. http://www.amazon.com/Spigen%C2%AE-Cushioned-Gunmetal-Scratch-Resistant/dp/B00OH4I2LY/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1452569060&sr=1-1&keywords=Spigen+nexus+6+case
I converted my whole household into wireless charging. I keep the little puck chargers around the house. My wife has an iphone 5s so I converted her phone to wireless charging as well.
The puck chargers I use are the powerbot chargers: http://smile.amazon.com/PowerBot-Enabled-Wireless-Charger-Smartphones/dp/B00F6SPYJS/ref=pd_bxgy_107_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=1ZB69PZ9QEYM3AFEKCG4
Another charger I use is: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JA7HNZO?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage
I use this case on my phone: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OH4I2LY?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage
With that setup it works fine. You do have to line it up pretty close, but once you figure out where that is, it is quick. The key is making sure you have the charger hooked to a sufficient power supply otherwise it will keep disconnecting.
I have this one and I love it. The material is grippy in my hand, seems pretty high quality and males the phone feel better in my hand. And it's cheap!

Ringke Fusion sounds like what you're looking for. The case includes a screen protector as well as a template for putting images in the back of the case. http://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Protector-Protection-Absorption-Technology/dp/B01637DS70
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01637DS70/ is compatible, it's not bad either the only thing that bugged me was the fingerprint sensor hole was a little bigger than needed to be, which is why I went for a skin to protect the little extra area. There's not a lot of good clear cases.
Here's a pretty decent list.. it has most.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/accessories/available-nexus-6p-list-t3225377
I bought the universal adapter and stuck it to the back of this case I had, and it's worked great for me. I was a little worried the phone might pop out over time from vibrations, or the mount might come unstuck from the case, but it's never even started to.
There are lots of TGSP on Amazon for the 6P, and they're all priced quite low too. I got the iVoler brand, but the PLESON brand was basically the same thing at the time I bought it. Also, I just found this when searching Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/iCarez-Tempered-Protector-Lifetime-Replacement/dp/B0168XT3E6/
As for cases, this is mine: http://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Hybrid-CUSHION-Crystal-bumper/dp/B016CBF3DE/
I have dropped my phone a few times already, and this case is a lifesaver.

I'm using the Spigen Hybrid. No complaints. It's saved my phone from a couple of waste high falls.
https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B016CBF3DE/ref=cm_sw_r_taa_lQKoybJ6V7WJB
I love this phone personally. For the first couple months it had some lag, camera, and battery issues but those seem to new fixed with recent updates. I came from an iPhone 5s and was nervous as I hadn't used Android for a while and last experience wasn't that great. But this phone is great I think and I actually like it better than any phone I've had.
This is the case I have and I really like it. Didn't add bulk https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016CBFBVI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_qHmxxbWNGBNH0

Spigen [Rugged Armor] Resilient [Black]
Really like it, not a big fan of carbon fiber but it's such a minor part of the design that I got past it.
this is a nice one, they feel nice in your hand, or at least it did when I was holding someones iphone with the same.
I just got the Spigen Rugged for my phone an so far so good.
I got my wife and myself a Nexus 6P when we stepped over to Fi from T-Mobile. Best decision ever! I couldn't be happier. Oh by the way, we got these cases instead of spending stupid amounts of money on other ones. I thought they were just going to be 2-3 month lasting cases but I am almost a year in and it still feels and looks brand new..
i think this one will do the job for you
Spigen Thin Fit! Great premium feel and great grip!
https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Nexus-Premium-Finish-Coating/dp/B01761J26I
I use a Spigen Thin Fit case which is close enoguh to the natural profile that a DBrand Skin fits over it perfectly.
I use a black carbon skin with red carbon text and camera inlay. Looks fucking amazing, adds very little to the size of the phone and adds a basic protective value.
Check out the skins and see if there's one you like. Another bonus is you can get multiple cases and multiple skins and swap them with minimal effort.
Also if you're into wood grain Toast has some nice looking stuff, but you'd need to put that on the phone it's self since it wraps.
I bought both of these cases myself, actually. I didn't like the Rugged Armor case, the hole on the back is very small, with steep edges, which makes the angle your finger has to be at to unlock the phone rather unnatural, and hard to reach. I really liked the SUPCASE, the hole on the back is really big, so very easy to unlock, and it's good protection for the phone, as well as the clear back looking nice. It does add a bit of bulk to the phone, so I have opted for another one, a different Spigen case, which is on my phone now. It's a lot better than the rugged armor one in terms of the fingerprint scanner, but still not as easy access as the Supcase. It is very low-profile, though, which isn't a huge amount of protection, but if you're like me, and rarely drop your phone, it's good, and looks nice. If I'm traveling, or in a situation where my phone might be used a little more roughly, I would definitely prefer the Supcase over anything else.
I'm quite careful with mine and was a fan of the spigen rugged armor for my Nexus 6P so that's what I'm going with again here. Very slim, yet adequate protection for the occasional minor drop.

(I own a S7 Edge)
I currently use Spigen Slim armor, it's protected my S7 from so many scratches however the scratches are very noticeable on the case.
Unfortunately there is not many great glass screen protectors for the S7 Edge, this shouldn't be a problem for the S7, the gorilla glass is great however even a cheap protector could be a lifesaver. (I believe everyone is waiting for the Zagg glass screen protector which should come out in the next two months.)
I'm considering changing case to either this or this
Spigen rugged armor case is pretty damn good. It has the looks,feel,and protection all in one for a pretty good price.

Spigen Rugged Armor.
Pros : Minimum bulk, adds grip, easy to install/remove as it's flexible.
Cons : It hides the nice Aluminium back of the phone and logo. But there is the Ultra Hybrid case which is transparent.
Coupled with the Orzly 2.5D TGSP V2. Some people notice the dotted layer on the TGSP, but I don't, at all... Have to make sure that it is perfectly applied and centered so it doesn't interfere with the case.
Spigen Rugged Armor. I have the OtterBox too, but the Spigen just feels a lot better. It's cheaper too.

Honestly, i'm still using the screen protector provided by One Plus. Haven't found a reason to install the tempered glass yet. :S
I have the Ringke case and my phone survived being dropped from the back of a moving forklift.
The Ringke Onyx is perfect IMO.
https://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Resilient-Durability-Anti-Slip-Defensive/dp/B01K5I9CB4
I got my phone under the same promotion, I picked up a Ringke Onyx from Amazon.
Its great, it thickens the phone a little bit and makes it much easier to hold.
This Caseology Parallax is my favorite, followed by this DGtle, this Ringke, and finally this Ringke, though it's a little bulky for my taste.
There are covers you can get.
They'll protect against scuffs, but obviously if you smash the thing hard enough you might just snap the plastic. I find the best way to avoid this sort of stuff is to just not go completely wild with my movement. There's also an application called [OpenVR Advanced Settings] (https://github.com/matzman666/OpenVR-AdvancedSettings) that lets you customize chaperone boundaries. It lets you adjust chaperone height, which might be helpful in giving you an idea of how high the ceiling is. .

I really like this one from Bear Motion. It's a really minimal case and I like the sandpaper-like texture.

Spigen Rugged Armor Google Pixel XL Case with Resilient Shock Absorption and Carbon Fiber Design for Google Pixel XL 2016 - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M1EEXWJ

I ordered this one yesterday in anticipation of Friday phone delivery:

If you have a Quite Black Pixel this Maxboost mSnap thin case looks phenomenal on it. I have one and it matches the quite black color perfectly. It's also extremely slim and has great grip after ~1 week of use.
Bear Motion was my favorite until I found the maxboost one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M3MQCG0/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I love a minimal case and this one feels premium (super soft to the touch). I love that it has large cutouts for the buttons and camera sensors. I found the bear motion to interfere with autofocus and collect a lot of dust, it also always worried me that that case didn't protect the top and bottom edges of the phone.
Try the maxboost mSnap case from Amazon and the intelliarmour pro series screen protector.
Edit: added links for the smaller Pixel model. Both are available for the XL as well.
Anyone have an opinion on these? Looks like they'd work well but I'm concerned about signal interference.

I have tried the TUDIA TAMM TPU Bumper Shock Absorption Cover in Black and am currently using the Incipio NGP Pure Case in Clear.
The TUDIA one is provides a better grip, and it's slightly thicker. The TUDIA one may provide better drop protection, but I'm mostly basing that on the fact that the case is more rigid when it's off and it's slightly thicker. The Incipio one is rated to protect from 3-foot drops. I have read a couple reports about the Incipio NGP case having mushy buttons, but I actually like the way the buttons feel, even more so with the case on than off, in fact.
Another popular case is the Viva Madrid Metalico Flex Clear Back Case. I haven't used it, but based on reports I have read, the case isn't perfect and the Incipio NGP is a better one.
If you want a heavy-duty case, similar to Otterox, check out the (Incipio DualPro)[https://www.incipio.com/cases/smartphone-cases/essential-cases-covers/essential-cases/dualpro-essential-case.html]. I originally ordered that, but decided to cancel the order because I wanted a clear case so I can see the phone in all its glory. One thing to note with clear cases is that they may turn yellowish over time; I don't know if that's the case for Incipio cases, but that's somewhat typical of clear cases in general.
If you purchase any Incipio cases from Incipio.com, use code INCAFF for 15% off.
I've got this Tudia case. In black, it's not as garish as in the photo. I normally dislike cases and my last few phones have all been caseless. The EP is just so ridiculously slippery that I'm pretty sure I'll drop it. I might decide to use a skin instead of a case, but if I'm ruining the look of the phone then maybe I might as well have it protected with a full case.
Pros:
Cons:
how protective do you need it? i've got this guy and my phones survived a few small drops onto wood floors unscathed. case barely adds anything to the profile of the phone which is nice.
You really can't go wrong with any of them. I have the Rugged Armor, but I've heard good things about the Neo Hybrid as well.
I really like this case so far: Spigen Rugged Armor Google Pixel XL Case with Resilient Shock Absorption and Carbon Fiber Design for Google Pixel XL 2016 - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M1EEXWJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_w1xxybNDFF9FC
Easily Googleable but here are 2 of my favs:
Although, they aren't really comparable but they are good cases.
I bought these:
Screen protector
Case
Had them since Oct 2017 and still going great. Case is tight, not stretched. I cracked one screen protector with my keys and bought another.
Only issue I've had with the screen protector is it doesn't adhere to the screen, it just sticks around the edge.. so I get dust under it occasionally. But, it's also easy to pull off (intentionally mind you) and clean, so you can re-apply it and it works great again. Looks great.
Glad to help! I was looking for a new case as well and was going to order a live case until I saw that article. Ended up going with this one instead. I'm glad you were at least able to get a refund on the case.
I really like Maxboost case. Super thin, snug fit and not slippery (especially after a week or so). Also not too grippy when trying to get it out of your pocket. The buttons seem hard to press at first but got use to it really quickly and prefer to push the actual buttons if it means the case can be thinner. I dropped my phone on tile the other day face down and the raised edge protected the phone beautifully.
https://www.amazon.com/Maxboost-Perfect-Anti-Slip-Excellent-Protective/dp/B01M3MQCG0

It's a very slim case, my magnet doesn't even fit in the back for my car mount. A slippery feel but I'm used to it now so it's no longer slippery to me, a naked phone feel. Funny story, within 2 mins of putting the case on, I dropped my phone down 6 concrete steps..I was terrified. But nothing happened! Just a small dent on bottom of the case.
Most minimalistic case I have found yet. Got it today and love it so far. Very thin and adds a ton of grip. Fits very well.

They work really, really well IMO. The silicone skin protects against scuffs and things of that nature, and the outer cage part can pop on/off in seconds depending on your protection vs weight needs.
Not a shill, just a satisfied customer. BTW they have DIY 3dprint alternatives on Thingiverse
i've seen these plastic protective shield things, but haven't used them myself.

I got them and ive already hit the wall 3 times (and one time the ceiling), my wife another 2... (got the Vive less than a week ago)
i dont think the hits would have broken the controllers, as the protector didnt break, but im glad i didnt found out.
I am so pumped for you! I love GORN and Devolver are a perfect fit, congratulations.

They make the controllers very heavy. After taking both the protective shell and skin off the controllers it felt like the controllers had no weight to them at all. I took them off because I was having tracking issues and because I'm not doing anything but development right now. Most likely the tracking issues are my own fault - my setup isn't the best and I haven't taken the time to improve it.
I am 6'5" or so. I hit my ceiling when playing games, so the shell is great for protecting my controllers. I'd recommend them for problem games but not for full time use.
Edit: Not on topic but this is the best accessory I've bought. Two switches to turn the lighthouses off. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CWNMB86/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'm currently waiting for this to arrive, their ads caught my eye on instagram, and it seems to be available at half that price on amazon so figured I'd try it. Long term, I'll probably go case-less or get an apple blue or brown leather case.
Using this spigen case for the moment which is nice because it shows off the back while protecting the sides without making the buttons harder to press, but it's a little chunky.
This what I’m using there’s a crystal clear option.
I think it’s the Ultra Hybrid I have the same case. It’s a snug fit on the XS but it fits.
Not sure exactly what you mean
Spigen Ultra Hyrbid
This is what I went with and got a $7.99 screen protector on amazon deal. It came with two screen protectors
screen protector $7.99 [2pk]
I bought this Spigen case and I love it! Thin, light, and nice protection. I dropped my phone back flat on concrete and it made the loudest slap noise. Phone was fine! I was 100% sure the back glass cracked but it’s still good!
Edit* I also bought this case as well. I had this similar case for my iPhone 5s at the time. I loved that case which is why I want for it on my iPhone X as well!
I like this Spigen with my orange dbrand skin.
This case has been really good for me. Increases the grip in hand and on surfaces. It's not too bulky and feels like it'll provide good protection against drops.

These are what I am looking at getting! They seem to both get great reviews in the forums. And the case has awesome reviews on amazon.
Well, many people seem to be more than happy with the Diztronic case, the ones in their accessories on the site are said to be a lot worse than this one.
And about screen protectors, I guess most people go with the Orzly?
But that will cost more than $15 in total, so I don't know.

This is a good case. I have a friend who uses it. Its been 3 months, no sign of tear.
Best thin and low profile case is the Diztronic Ultra TPU Matte case. Hands down. It offers the drop protection of a TPU, yet it's the case that adds the least amount of bulk.

Most of the people who own a OPO, including myself, would usually recommend this case: http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Matte-Black-Flexible-OnePlus/dp/B00MBS1NA0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1420757932&sr=8-1&keywords=diztronic+oneplus
Slim, keeps the form factor of the phone, and you have two options between their regular, or the ultra version, which is a bit more protective on the corners and a bit thicker, but still slim nonetheless.
Bonus: The keyboard at the top is a CM Storm Quickfire Rapid with Cherry MX Blue keyswitches.

I have this one and I absolutely love it. Doesn't add much bulk and it looks sharp.
That is also the one I'm rocking. I love it. It's stood up to dropping several times, and the kickstand comes in handy (although it's not quite up to par with the ahem Thunderbolt's that I used to have). The cutout for the M also helps make it easier to hold onto, and the blue one matches the N6 blue quite well unlike a lot of cases.

My favorite case for the N6 - not slippery
I rotate between three:
I have a Spigen heavy duty case, but I rarely use it because it adds too much bulk. I did protect it from my driveway, though, when it feel out of my pocket from about a 4 foot height.
Honestly I just don't use cases that often. I get an emergency case for when I go out (I bought this one, super sleek: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OH4HLJ8?psc=1) but that's about it. To show off the back many people got this case http://www.amazon.com/Spigen%C2%AE-Cushioned-Gunmetal-Scratch-Resistant/dp/B00OH4I2LY# or any other clear case. Haven't seen many bumpers around but I'm sure more will come out soon.
I already have several Qi Chargers I used with my Nexus 5. I have 5 of these spread around my work/house/car.
I bought both the Ringke Fusion and the Spigen Ultra Hybrid. Once I get them and the phone, i'll be doing a comparison video.
I also bought a Black Titanium Dbrand skin. I bought a 32GB Cloud White today, so with that skin I'll essentially have a black phone.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OH4I2LY/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_2HBKwbNV75GBS
I'm in the US but here's the Canadian Amazon link to the case I got.
http://www.amazon.ca/Spigen%C2%AE-Cushioned-Gunmetal-Scratch-Resistant/dp/B00OH4I2LY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1449061837&sr=8-1&keywords=spigen+nexus+6
I bought the Spigen Ultra Hybrid in Gunmetal with my Cloud White. It shows off the back with a somewhat glossy coated clear back. And the Gunmetal compliments both Cloud White and Midnight Blue!
I have the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Series with gunmetal (gray) bumper and clear back. If you want to show off your phone and have protection i'd go with this case. Its slim too. Doesn't add much bulk to the back or the sides. The clear back is a fingerprint/smeare magnet but can easily be wiped off. Cut outs a damn near exact and its a tight fit all around. The price is good too. Link
Edit: The bumper and backing add for more grip. I haven't felt like i'm about to drop the thing when holding it loosely compared to without the case.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00OH4I2LY
I just bought this today and couldn't be happier with a case. Its slim, has screen protection, and feels really premium. Also shows the Nexus 6 original design without altering it much. Hope you consider this.
Currently using a Ringke case with the ovals for the power button and volume rocker cut out with an X-Acto knife. This puts the buttons at the bottom of a hole where they won't be bumped by anything, but they're still usable.
I'm using this one and really like it. Clear so it doesn't cover up the natural beauty of the device. It's not bulky, buttons are very clicky and easy to use and comes with a screen protector as well. I really enjoy it.
http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01637DS70?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00
You could opt for a clear case, like the Ringke Fusion (http://amzn.com/B01637DS70) or Spigen Ultra Hybrid (http://amzn.com/B016CBF3DE). I use the Ringke Fusion with a back-only skin and it works wonderfully.
I bought the PRO version and it sits very close to the edge of the screen, but I haven't had a case friendly version to compare. Since the Live Case is so form fitting to the edges of the phone, however, it doesn't touch the protector.
Also I've used this clear Spigen case and also have had no problems using it with the IntelliArmor PRO screen protector. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016CBF3DE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_d2PAxbTRZNVWQ
I do use a case. I use the spigen ultra clear. I think it's their thinnest model. I hate cases, but this phone is just too Slippery for one hand use without a case.
Here's the one I have.
Nexus 6P Case, Spigen [Ultra Hybrid] AIR CUSHION [Crystal Clear] Clear back panel + TPU bumper for Nexus 6P (2015) - Crystal Clear (SGP11796) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016CBF3DE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_v35mxbN9Q88DT
Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case. Satisfies two things for me: 1) doesn't make the phone more big or bulky, 2) the back is visible so it doesn't hide the Nexus logo and the color of the phone. I really like it but my only complaint is when I want to take screenshots I would need to press the power button and the volume up button and when I press both at the same time, it only increases the volume. Not sure why it does this but on reviews, I see people cutting off the power and volume button covers and I'm assuming its because of the screenshot problem.
Spigen Ultra Hybrid. Love it.
Too slippery to go bareback.
Headphones: Jaybirds. Sweat proof. Lifetime warranty on sweat. Great sound for the price. Perfect for gym or just casual. Wait for x3's. I got x2 they have problem with battery completely dying (atleast in my case), but the company always down to fix them. x3 coming out around October ("Fall") I think.
Case: Google live case, because swag and scratch protection. You can totally get cheaper/better (less swag) on Amazon. Spigen Rugged Armor comes in mind. Looks good but doesn't really protect the screen, you will need a bulky one for that.
Does it happen in other locations? I thought my phone was powering itself off, but since it only happened in pocket, I theorize that it was the button getting hit. It was worse when I used this case but stopped when I switched to a Feather Case (can't find at the moment) which had a recession for the button.
In short, the more the button stuck out, the more this problem happened for me.
Check out either the Spigen Rugged Armor or the Unicorn Beetle Pro. The first one is more of a slim/sleek option and the second is more akin to an Otterbox. I own both and I prefer the Unicorn mostly because I'm clumsy and it'll protect from drops. It's a fair amount thicker than the Rugged Armor however. As for glass screen protectors, check out the Spigen Glass Screen protector. It's a perfect fit and I've had my screen saved once by it. Smooth to the touch as it should be.

For me it's pretty slippery so a case was necessary. I got this case and it's perfect: still super thin with barely any bulk and it feels nice in the hand.
I went with the slate/black colour and it never ceases to amaze me with its sleek design!
Ah, my mistake, so the glass cover I got worked fine with this case: https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Rugged-Resilient-Ultimate-protection/dp/B016CBFBVI.
When I ordered mine, they only had one type of screen protector...my best guess would be to go with the "case friendly" one if you plan on using one with a case.
Spigen Rugged Armor
I actually had that same Spigen case and got a replacement case for the same reason! I went with another Spigen Case. This one is a different, more flexible material that won't crack and it wraps around the whole phone. The only thing I missed was the cutouts for the volume and power buttons but I've gotten used to this one now! I like the look of this one too.
I'm pretty minimalist in my preferences (and, more importantly, don't have access to a good printer). As an illustration, my regular case is the Spigen Rugged Armor. If I do get the Ringke Fusion, I'm sure I'll just use it as-is, put the adapter on it, and learn to not be bothered by it. In the end, a slightly-less-than-preferable case on a securely-attached phone is better than an ideal case on a smashed-to-bits phone.
I ordered Spigen's Rugged Armor case myself just the other day along with Orzly's screen protector and a few Type-C accessories from Anker. http://www.amazon.de/Spigen-SGP11797-Schutzh%C3%BClle-RUGGED-schwarz-Armor-Black/dp/B016CBFBVI
I have an Intelliarmor TGSP and love it. I also own 3 cases:
NOTE: All 3 of these cases work great with the Intelliarmor TGSP.
I have the same metal plate on my 6p and use this case with the magnet between the case and the phone. It may lose some of its strength but I use the mount in my car daily as well and it has never once fallen off even after abrupt turns and braking so clearly still has enough strength to securely hold the phone. Plus the metal plate is entirely invisible.
$50 is $50, go with the gold phone and buy this:
http://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Rugged-Resilient-Ultimate-protection/dp/B016CBFBVI
A few things I recommend:
I've got 4 cases I rotate on my Nexus 6P, the first case I got turns out to be the best , feels good, looks good, nice grip,
RINGKE FUSION Smoke Black
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B006LPWJQG/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1463039118&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=6p+ringke+smoke&dpPl=1&dpID=51mrrdb1v%2BL&ref=plSrch
Must have case for all Nexus 6P , you won't regret it,
Next up is the Cover Up Woodback Explorer, Gold Lightning Bolt..... As soon as I saw the black wood finish with the gold Lightning Bolt I wanted it, very easy to fit, light weight and nice grip on the edges, looks real classy
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B01AAFF54U/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1463039302&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=Nexus+6p+cover+up+wood&dpPl=1&dpID=51Aa3Th3s1L&ref=plSrch
Third is the Frost Black Supcase Unicorn Beetle.....probably the most heavy duty of the 4 I have, feels real heavy , chunky, dense, tough , looks OK , not as slick as the Ringke, and the main negative for me is how hard it is to take on and off, but for some that'll be a plus as you get a tight fit, becomes one with the phone , sure to protect your Nexus 6P.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B015X90UJS/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1463039481&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=Nexus+6p+supcase&dpPl=1&dpID=51Ga2SN6oBL&ref=plSrch
Finally a case I want to love but the texture just doesn't quite give me as much grip as I wanted, it looks good, so easy to fit , the Spigen Rugged Armour......it's OK, nowhere near as much protection as the Supcase, least grip of the 4 I have, but it's a good no thrills solid case without being great.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B016CBFBVI/ref=pd_aw_sbs_1?pi=SL500_SS115
So there it is , seriously if you don't have the Ringke Fusion you must get it immediately, winner all the way at a great price, the Cover Up Wood back is a comfortable 2nd , really looks amazing but is over twice the price of the other 3 in my top four, the Supcase is the brute of the 4 and finally the fairly drab Spigen Rugged Armour.
To bad Otterbox doesn't makes cases for Nexus phones. But if bulk and looks (which is subjective) aren't a worry, this seems to be up your alley.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B015X9UR2S/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1457219041&sr=8-2&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=nexus+6p+supcase+unicorn+beetle&dpPl=1&dpID=51t8C4EcwTL&ref=plSrch
This one also isn't bad, but like you mentioned I'm seeing more about the looks than anything else. I have it and personally I love it, but I can't speak for its ruggedness since I haven't really ever dropped my phone (with spending over $600 I'm incredibly protective of it).
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B016CBFBVI/ref=pd_aw_sbs_107_1?ie=UTF8&dpID=51QdYN2TbEL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL100_SR100%2C100_&refRID=1C673WA6HT6N4TF1EXRT
Here's a 3rd option. More pricy, lacks reviews, but Speck is general a really well received brand for cases and protection.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B015XIIM2G/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1457220001&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=nexus+6p+speck&dpPl=1&dpID=41WonIEGNkL&ref=plSrch
I have a Spigen Rugged Armor Nexus 6P Case. The logo & 'carbon fiber' pattern are not nearly as visible as in the picture (I forgot they were there until I saw the Amazon page).
2 best cases, in my opinion, are the Spigen Rugged Armor and the Spigen Thin Fit. They both fit perfectly (even with a screen protector) and look and feel great. Just depends on the amount of bulk/protection you want.
I bought Spigen® [Rugged Armor] Resilient [Black] Rugged Armor Ultimate protection and rugged design with matte finish.
I picked the color because I like the darker phones. :)
I'm using the Spigen Rugged Armor (http://amzn.com/B016CBFBVI) and it really is a nice case. I haven't put it to the test yet but after putting the 6P into it I do know I felt a lot more comfortable with where I lay the device and so on. That said the rhino shield bundle setup Evolutive Labs is coming out with looks like a for sure winner. I even placed an order for their full bundle but it's going to be January sometime before it's even suppose to be out. So till then I'll gladly sport Spigen's case. I might even pick up their screen protector. They have a tempered glass one out now (http://amzn.com/B016CBF5VO)
Here it is on Amazon. I bought it and it's definitely my favorite so far.
I'd recommend the Spigen Thin Fit. Pictures here.
I bought one, and I absolutely love it. The material is similar to the soft-touch back on the Nexus 5 which helps make it grippy while staying minimal. The exposed buttons are my preference for cases and I now hate the adopted case I originally bought with the phone. I agree with you that almost every 6P case is extremely ugly, but not the Thin fit.
Still allows the white to peek out but with added grip/protection compared to the bare aluminum.
Also preordered a Rhino Crash Guard bumper.
Hey, welcome to Fi! I got my sim chip, but I have to wait until Feb. 22 to switch over because I'm still on contract. I'll join you soon though ;)
There is a great thread about a modular stand. Also, I just bought this case, it's on a 70% discount right now.
I am an avid biker, and have tried MANY different mounts. The only one that I have found to work perfectly is the Quad Lock Bike Mount. I use it attached to this case, which I only put on while I bike. I highly recommend this setup.
I have an Aluminum 6P, and I went with the black Spigen Thin Fit case. I really hate bulky cases, so this one is great for me. It's the bare minimum protection, so it doesn't add much bulk. And it actually improves the phone in my opinion. The power/volume buttons were so easy to hit accidentally, now they're recessed and that never happens. Adds more grip to the phone as well. And I've dropped my phone a few times since getting the case, and haven't experienced any damage. Protects the corners, lifts the screen. (though I also have a tempered glass protector) Can't recommend it enough!
Dunno, I have these ones and they're both fucking amazing:

I tried several screen protectors from amazon and the're garbage. Do yourself a favor and head over to best buy and have them put the geek squad one on. It cost me $30 CDN but it's the only option that isn't crap and they guarantee it.

Amazon
I use Spigen Rugged Armor and Spigen Neo Hybrid Crystal.
They provide good protection without adding much bulk. The rugged armor feels a bit better than the neo hybrid crystal but the neo hybrid crystal is transparent and sometimes I just love looking at this gorgeous back.
I use this one.
Have pre-ordered one of these http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01BLI4FWI?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00 but it's not out till April so have one of these http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B017TU6I3G?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 ready for next week when I (hopefully) get my edge.
Have had a Unicorn Beetle case on my LG G3 for a long time now and has held up extremely well, from high drops to pockets full of keys.
I use the Unicorn Beetle case, and it completely solved that issue for me. It makes the buttons just slightly harder to press, eliminating accidental presses. It also adds a little extra grip to the sides so that the fingers don't rest on the "edge" display.
Here is the mobile version of your link

Spigen Rugged Armor OnePlus 3 Case / OnePlus 3T Case with Resilient Shock Absorption and Carbon Fiber Design for OnePlus 3 2016 - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01H3PEWDK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_eQcxzbM25E1WT I love their cases
Spigen Rugged Armor, $12.99 off of Amazon, has Prime shipping (or Prime One Day with $35 ordered).
It sits higher than the camera bump (crucial to prevent having the chrome ring around the camera from getting scuffed), covers all the buttons save for the notification slider, and fully wraps around the border of the phone. Which the "Protective Cases" from OnePlus doesn't do.
It's not too thick (though thicker than a OnePlus Protective Case), but in exchange it doesn't offer as much protection as an Otterbox, Neo Hybrid or other multi-piece cases.
The reviews for that case are saying that it doesn't fit right and the there's not enough room for the headphone jack. One of the reviews suggested Spigen. I've been looking at this one
I'm currently rocking this Spigen case it's really slim and still has protection where it's needed. Plus it looks good.
Try the Spigen rugged armor case. I'm using it right now on my 3T. It looks much better irl than in pics, and it feels very protective and thin. Spigen is also a trustworthy brand.
I've decided to go with the Spigen case and 5 pack Orzly screen protectors.
I figured with the case protecting all the edges, these screen protectors would protect the face that is exposed, and that's perfect for me.
Seconding this. Though, I found it easier to install than my last, ill fitting screen. YMMV.
And I use this case...

I've never had this problem. I'm using these grips. Do you have any skins/grips on your controller? Also, are you using the wrist straps?
I have Hyperkin GelShell controller skins. They're ok. I don't know if they'll help with the grip button problem, but they seem to add a bit of grip for your hands. They also come in different colors.
I have the hyperkin protectors as well, they grey one's, and I love them. Already they've helped with damage control when other's try it out.

They come in different colors too just look for them on Amazon
I use these
I'm rocking this guy. It's my pet peeve when a case adds a lip around the front face - I like it to be as flush as possible.
This case has a textured, Teflon-feeling material. It's not very grippy, but it also is pretty resistant to finger grease. It already has a some signs of wear & tear after just a few weeks, so I may be in the market again for a super-minimal case.
Bear Motion (doesn't fully protect the top/bottom)

This might be way too thin for you, but I've been using this case: https://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Slim-Case-Google-Pixel/dp/B01M0NBJ79
I realize it doesn't offer that much protection, but I found other cases much too bulky. I have small hands, and it hurt my hand to hold the other cases for too long. I like the lightweight feel of this case.
I like my Parallax case but it's just too bulky and a bit slippery for me. I generally just use my Nillkin Ultra-Thin nature series case. I also ordered another Bear Motion case, this time for the Pixel, as I loved the case on my Nexus 6P. It may not last but 5 months before the grip wears off but at $8 it really isn't a bad deal. If you want a near caseless feel though the Nillkin is awesome.
I have this one clear. It is not very low profile but is OK. I believe if you want an ultra low profile to the cost of losing some lower corner protection there is this or this
I have a Bear Motion slim case on my Pixel that leaves the buttons exposed, and provides a fantastic texture.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01M0NBJ79
Looks promising! I picked up this Bear Motion case off Amazon and really ended up liking it. Has a sandstone finish like the OnePlus One and it's as thin as the Spigen Thin fit cases. Only gripe is that it doesn't cover the top or bottom chin.

Which one do you think is the "grippiest"? I've tried all of the ones I've listed below but they're all just not very grippy. If I angle my open hand at all, it starts to slip. I never had that issued with the Ringke Slim on my iPhone 5S. I like the super low profile of the Suensan and Bear Motion but none of them feel grippy to me. The Bear Motion has the most grip but even that one is underwhelming.

I can go on, but I have literal pages of results just by looking up "Pixel case" on Amazon
I just got this AFTER dropping my pixel, minimal damage but this would have helped so much. Really nice case, not slippery and looks and feels better in person.

The spigen I have is very slim, has tactile buttons, and is in the "goldilocks zone" between hard-slick plastic and "pulls your pocket liner out with it" rubber

In my opinion the Diztronic case is rather thin and it definitely has a lip to protect the glass.
Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Matte-Black-Flexible-OnePlus/dp/B00MBS1NA0/
For my old OPO, I tried on a bunch of cases, including Tudia, Cruzerlite, Diztronic, Diztronic Ultra, and Ringke FUSION. I ended up sticking with Diztronic Ultra, but the problem with all those cases was that they all covered up the sexy Sandstone finish.
So I got the Sandstone case this time for my OP3, and also the Black Apricot to change it up once in a while.
As for screen protectors, right now I have the official OP3 tempered glass screen protector. The quality is really nice and it feels good to the touch, but it really bothers me that it doesn't cover the whole screen, leaving a significant gap on the edges.
The whole point of tempered glass screen protectors is to absorb shock if the phone is dropped, so that the protector cracks leaving the phone screen/digitizer intact, so if this phone gets dropped on its corners or edges, this tempered glass screen protector wouldn't do much to help.
Another issue is that the official screen protector is narrower than the width of the screen, the gap it leaves is bigger than the side bezels, so it makes the display look weird.
I ordered the PLESON full screen tempered glass today, but somebody was telling me in another thread that it sucks, so IDK, we'll see how it goes.
I purchased a Pelosi Flip cover case which I really liked for a few minutes until I couldn't get my phone out of the case. Switched to the Diztronic case and its fantastic. Light, thin and easy to take on and off. Links to both cases below (also the places I got them from)

How is it? Does it look/feel like wood IRL, or is it just platic? I just ordered this one, but I will probably get the wood one instead if it is sturdy
Is there any reason why you went with it rather then the Diztronic case?
Diztronic case is very thin and my cousin has one on his OPO.

This is the best cover according to reddit.

Bought it a few weeks ago and it's the best. It match perfect with this screen protector:

It sticks out ever so slightly. Hard to notice. I have a bumper on my phone too, so I can't actually notice it...
But my phone is uber protected with low cost and almost no inconvenience. Still looks great and low profile. If I sell mine, I can sell it as 'like new' which I did with my Nexus 5 - same protection.

This phone + Zero-Lemon battery
I mean this is certainly true, but usually I have my phone and it's charged already. It's kinda like "the camera you have." I'm not charging a GPS or music player or book reader or alarm clock because I just use my phone for all that.
And if charging stuff is a problem, I highly recommend using a phone with a removable battery and getting a ZeroLemon replacement extended battery. I get about two days of what I would consider "heavy use" out of my phone with mine.

Yes, I tried them with the Spigen Slim Armor, which is ironically not that slim. It works on the DT-900/DT-910, though it's a bit more finicky than without it - you have to line it up perfectly and make sure the back is flush with the charger.
I imagine a slimmer case would have no issues, but anything thicker is likely to not work well, if at all.
How well do the rounded-edge screen protectors work with cases? I'm thinking about picking up either the Spigen Slim Armor or Neo Hybrid, but have no prior experience with tempered glass.
Was it this case? http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Case-Spigen-Armor-Google/dp/B00OH4I2IC
I had a Ringke slim in white like you. I have a midnight blue 6 though. (just wanted to see what all the white fuss was about...) After two months of use it's become scratched and smudged and all that sticks out like a sore thumb on the white. It's not pretty...
In addition (and perhaps more importantly) it makes the phone slipperier than it already is!
I just got a Spigen Slim Armor in Metal Slate, which not only matches the nexus 6's colors to the T, it also is a bit grippier, thicker, and has a stand. First impressions say that I'm going to like it a lot more!
http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Case-Spigen-Armor-Google/dp/B00OH4I2IC/
It feels much more droppable than the Slim, but I'd get an even thicker one if I was dropping mine "frequently".
Cheaper here on Amazon.
I use this one from Spigen, it's really freaking thin, but I feel protected with it.
Is this the set of Spigen cases that most people are talking about?

I have this one......dropped it once and seems to have helped. I use the kickstand daily and like the feature
From what I can tell, the Slim armor has a soft TPU case around the entire phone along with a hard plastic backing covering most of it, the Neo Hybrid has the TPU covering, but a hard plastic bumper that doesn't cover the back of the phone. Now the Ultra Hybrid has soft TPU bumpers around the corners and a clear hard plastic back to it. I have an Ultra Hybrid, a Slim Armor, and a Ringke Max (Comparable to the Slim Armor, only it has a textured plastic back and no kickstand. I'll probably roll with the Ultra Hybrid most of the time so that I can show off the spiffy dbrand white carbon fiber back I've got ordered, and swap the Ringke Max or the Slim Armor for when I'm doing something a bit more prone to phone breakage like hiking or whatever. The product pages on Amazon for the Spigen cases have pretty good pictures of how they each break down, but they can definitely be confusing as to what the differences between each case are.
I wonder how the clear Ultra Hybrid case is going to feel on the sides.. Do you think it's going to be hard frosted clear plastic like this one?
Aww, YEA!!!
Ultra Hybrid year 2 here I come!

I have this, but i also went back to this. I think it's a softer field in the hand and not as noticable as the rugged one. plus it has a clear back that I want to use with a skin I purchased. you'd be happy with either.

I put this adhesive leather wallet on a Ringke Fusion clear case. It wasn't a cheap solution, but it has worked perfectly for me over the last seven months.
I have the Ringke Fusion for my Nexus 6 and it works great.
Check out the reviews for the 6p version though.

It has bumper (TPU) edges and a more hard plastic back so it doesnt brown over time like most clear cases. I swear by this case, I have gotten all the people I know to buy this case and I have not gotten a single bad review on it.
I got this clear TPU case and love it because it doesn't hide the phone and it doesn't add very much bulk: Ringke [Fusion] Clear PC Back TPU Bumper

Normally I'm not the type to get a screen protector however with this case if it fell on the ground I would be worried about the screen clearance. There is not much of a lip to protect if it fell face down. My only complaint with the case is when calling someone the top of the case that touches your ear is at a 90° angle making the case sharp while resting on your ear.
Also have a 6p with dbrand skins + case, cases fit just fine.
I use a thin TPU case usually, but this for outdoorsy days.
Ringke Fusion
Easily my favorite case, haven't even looked at anything else since i bought it like 4 months ago. The smoke hides discoloration, even though i don't think the clear would discolor much. Buttons feel perfect.

Maybe try the Spigen Air Cushion
This is the best one.
Screen protector, yes, I use just the regular ones from best buy, but I would prefer tempered glass. Much more protective. Brother dropped his phone hard and the glass protected the screen from shattering.
I don't own a google store case, but the live cases are pretty popular if you want one custom to you. I really like the design of the Adopted Nexus 6P case on the google store too.
I use the Spigen Rugged Armor, which IMO is the best looking case you can get. If I had any other option for a case though, I'd probably get any really clear thin one and get a Dbrand skin
There isn't any bundles with the 6P that I'm aware of, but regarding your last two questions a simple search on Amazon or Ebay should help you. Just make sure when you're buying USB A to USB C cables, adapters, car chargers, etc. that they're up to USB Spec. Here is a google spreadsheet where you can see nearly all cables and adapters that have been reviewed by Benson. Avoid the ones that aren't approved like the plague and try to buy the ones that are approved for minimum risk of burning down your house/frying your phone.
Other than that I feel you'll find the transition from an Apple device to a Nexus fairly easy, as Nexus provides you with a stock and easy to use Android compared to most other Android flagships.
I'm using the Quad Lock Front Mount with the Quad Lock Universal Adapter. You pretty much attach the universal adapter to your phone case and you're good to go. I also have a Nexus 6P and I'm using this case if that helps.
I ordered the Spigen Rugged Armor. Seems to be a favorite, after they fixed all their sensor-blocking issues.
If that one is too bulky or grippy (like collecting all dust from my pocket, not coming out of pocket easily, etc), I'll probably look at the Spigen Exact Fit.
Chiming in with my experience...I had mine on the roof of my car while I loaded my bike. I drove away, forgot about the phone, turned around, found the phone in a dusty, gravel parking lot working normally with no cracks in the screen. I run with the spigen rugged armor case. I will always trust the spigen cases, I had this phone go flying into parking lots or slip out of my hands and have been "lucky" each time.

Username: /u/thedjgr33n
Original Post:
Item Name: Nexus 6P 64GB Graphite
Condition: Pretty much perfect, had a tempered glass screen protector and a case on it since about a week after I got it.
Timestamps: http://imgur.com/a/kGij8
Price: £260 including postage.
Postage and Payment: Paypal or BT and probably royal mail.
Any additional information: I don't have the original charger for it so it'd just be a generic apple plug that I'll throw in most likely with a 3ft type C cable. The case is a spigen rugged armor case from here, and I'll leave the screen protector on. Never unlocked the bootloader so it's still running stock everything and it is unlocked.

I love the phone's bare look but I love it too much to end up having it slip out of my pocket and into the street or tile floor.
Spigen makes some fantastic, good looking, slim cases for the 6P. A couple people have said that my phone looks better with the Rugged Armor case as supposed to without it. I feel no compromise in using a case.
Here's a link to the one I am talking about:

bear motion is my personal favorite and my every day carry case. I like the grip it provides with the textured backing. Lacks top and bottom coverage though.
Spigen rugged armor I use this one if I feel I might benefit from a little more protection. But prefer bear motion for the slim and grippy feel. Also prefer the uncovered buttons on bear motion.

Oh, and a Nilkin Tempered Glass screen protector. I find Nilkin's fit and finish is better than many of the ones out there... worth the extra price.
one of these and one of these
The Spigen has a slight bulk to it, but is a solid case. The Google case is more of a novelty with the extra button, but is slimmer and protects pretty well.
As someone who's owned the 6P for a few months on Project Fi - I can tell you that it's a pretty good phone. I haven't experienced any of the issues that Cykahui has had, and he's just really bitter.
The screen's been excellent - videos are wonderful to watch on it, and there has been no "Yellowing" or visual degradation of any kind.
The bezels aren't noticeably bad in any way. However, if you get a case for the 6P - it will inch it into "a tad too large" territory depending on the case. I use this Spigen Case with my 6P. I also use this Tech Armor screen protector - not because I lack faith in the Gorilla Glass, but just as an "extra layer" against typical unexpected life events.
The phone still feels solid, I've dropped it twice down the side of my car seat, once getting it wedged between the metal seat slide and the floor, and on extracting it there were no scrapes or scratches.
I am very happy with my 6P, however at times using custom launchers, it does prove to be a little sluggish. Using the stock launcher/Google Now launcher I didn't have any performance issues. The fingerprint unlock works well, the NFC works flawlessly with my YubiKey NEO, and it picks up my voice far more accurately than my Moto X 2014 ever did - and that phone was supposed to have a dedicated processor for voice input.
I have no doubt the Samsung S7 Edge is a fine phone, though historically I've been dubious of Samsung's insistence on customizing everything, and the utility of an edge screen still hasn't been proven to me yet. Either way, I think both will prove to be fine for you - but don't let Cykahui get to you. He's irreverent and acidic.
The case I'm using on it right now is actually quite thick (although not as ridiculously thick as a typical Otterbox case for the iPhone). This is the case I've been using since day one. It's a rather nice case, but the thickness does make the phone slightly bulkier. However, my original reply above was written based on my use of the 6P with this case on it every day, so even with a thick case, I still feel like the phone's size is manageable. I must point out that the phone is slightly easier to use without the case on it. (On a somewhat unrelated note, the lip on the sides of the case also is not high enough to fit over top of a glass screen protector, so be aware that the buttons on the side of the case will be misaligned with the actual buttons on the phone.)
If you're worried about the size and you're not prone to accidentally dropping your phone from more than a couple of feet in the air, I would just go with a thinner TPU case. I like my case, but it has its flaws, and there are definitely thinner ones out there for the 6P.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B016CBFBVI?vs=1
That's what I have. Pretty much all matte black apart from the small parts at the top and bottom.
I'm a fan of this one. Fits perfectly, doesn't block any sensors, and lets me take screenshots. It's also absorbed a couple decent drops already (waist height). Only downside in my mind is that the corner of the charging hole digs into my pinkie finger given how I hold the phone.
Yes, the Diztronic will work with a screen protector. I have a glass screen protector on my 6P and the Diztronic works fine with it.
An alternative suggestion for a case would be the Spigen Rugged Armor. This is the one I use daily and it's basically the Diztronic with a bit more style on the back (the inlaid carbon fiber accents). This one also works perfectly fine with a screen protector.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016CBFBVI is the one I love. I ordered 4 different cases. and the two spigen ones are my favorite. The other spigen one is a hard plastic one here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01761J26I
Those spigen TGSPs look good. I'll probably grab one of those with a Rugged Armor case. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016CBFBVI
We just had a similar discussion in this thread.
My recommendation would be the Nilkin case that you can pick up for ~$5 from eBay. It's extremely thin, fits great, and provides ample protection (even from drops).
I purchased the Spigen Thin Fit case from Amazon but didn't like it at all. Gave it a 2.5/5 in the thread I linked in my first sentence.
that's a nice decision keeping both phones. i am going to purchase one too next month
about the case
i like this one http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Spigen%C2%AE-Exact-Fit-Premium-Finish/dp/B01761J26I/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1451857356&sr=8-2&keywords=6p+cases
but it's not leather. i can't find a good leather case.
I saw someone say the same thing on Amazon. It's $12 there right now.

so far so good. Hardly any bulk. I typically use my phone without a case, but i got so used to the soft touch nexus 5 back and this feels just like it.
Spigen thin case because the texture provides a grip on my $400 phone.
I have had the black one for many months and love it. It is starting to crack just a bit and I think I will order a fresh one soon. Go for it!
You should, it's a great phone and I'm planning to keep it until the successor to the initial Pixel phones. Camera is great all around, HDR makes low light scenes great. The display is AMAZING, I use the multi-window option to do two tasks at once since the display is big enough. Updates will still be flowing in a couple more years and maybe a few more for security updates.
If you also decide to get a case without adding too much extra surface area, this Spigen thin-fit case IS AMAZING! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01761J26I/
http://www.amazon.com/Spigen®-Resilient-Ultimate-protection-impacts/dp/B01A7IDHOU
I've had this since the day I got my phone. Adds grip without too much extra bulk. I actually feel it's more comfortable with this on.
that looks like a nice case actually. I just bought the black s7. Sorta regret the black now that I found that clear back case. I thought the black would look better given that it's mostly covered anyway.
I was thinking about this case before. Not sure now.

Do you think I should be fine with the GD Smith one along with this case, or should I get a different case?

Spigen Rugged Armor
I've only ever used this case but it seems pretty solid and has a lot of good reviews to boot:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01A7IDHOU
I just got this case: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01A7IDHOU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
Works well, and I still have edge functionality. I've been using the edge night clock, and with DND on I don't get any notifications. TBH I wasn't sure I'd like it, but I definitely do.
Most caselogic and spigen work. Though the plastic ones from Caseology do not and they are thin. Seems to be if they are a hard plastic shell type case, it will interfere.
Both of these work:

Best one I found. Many great reviews and encases the whole phone. Also wireless charge works. Bonus it holds down any screen protector you use so it doesn't peel up. $18

Thanks for the reply!
The Unicorn Beetle pro Full case that I would get though doesn't come with a screen protector (http://www.amazon.com/SUPCASE-Full-body-Holster-WITHOUT-Protector/dp/B01BLI4FWI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1464080997&sr=8-1&keywords=Unicorn+beetle+pro+full+case+S7+edge).
I've never been a fan of them and am generally very careful with my phones (upgrading from a 3+ year old S3).
Should I get a screen protector for this phone though?
I use this case for the ruggedness and it has saved my phone from a handful of drops. Unicorn Beetle (Black/Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BLI4FWI/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_6rcuxbX1PD5T0
As for screen protector I use https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BG2B7XE/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_.ycuxb1YQVPFP because I'm usually outside taking picture and don't have to worry about glare or finger prints on the screen.
It does raise on the edge occasionally but I remove case and press on the sides with a credit card and let it sit for 10-15 mins and BANG, you can't tell there's a screen protector on it.
This is the one?

Am I seeing this right? I know the listing is without the screen protector for the edge but does this mock-up mean they have one with a screen protector or one coming? It would be the first full phone protector case I've seen with an S7 Edge screen protector on it.
I honestly cannot say anything bad about this case. Provides great protection while staying very thin. Everything is snug and cutouts are perfect.

I got the unicorn beetle from amazon. Cheap but built surprisingly well. It is designed with a bezel the clicks into place around the the front of the screen and holds down the edges to any screen protector you add.
I got the Zagg soft screen protector but I see the Yootech gets excellent reviews on Amazon for a fraction of the price.
Unicorn beetle case combined with this [Armorsuit film protector] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01ACXRZNY/ref=sxts2?ie=UTF8&qid=1474867411&sr=2&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65) make a good combo.
If you wanna try a TGSP I recommend the [gpel gen 2] (https://www.gpelstore.com/products/galaxy-s7-edge-full-coverage-tempered-glass-screen-protector-gen-2-pre-order?variant=22526613767) with a minimal case like the [spigen thin fit] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01A7IDCC2/ref=sxts1?ie=UTF8&qid=1474867616&sr=1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65)

It's awesome 👍
I just got this case yesterday and love it! It is as good as an OtterBox (although it does not have the plastic screen protector) for less than half the price. $17.99 @ Amazon
d/B01BLI4FWI/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I am using an Armorsuit screen protector, which is also pretty cool. Installation is a bit daunting but it seems to be great so far. Good luck.
this is the one i got
Yeah I agree, the wood cases look cool, but I don't think they will do much to protect the phone. This case also does put a lip around the screen like the otterbox cases which should help a lot too - but i love this phone so much i'll do everything i can to not drop it, the case is just there for daily protection from scuffs and etc lol - i also love how the buttons are covered so they don't get liquid in them and stuff (nexus 4 got a tiny drop of water under the button and the volume rocker started working very randomly)
Yea I've tried these as well and the same issue persists. Upon reflection maybe my case is causing it to be nudged in some way. It's this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01H3PEWDK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_lShHAb3SENHE6
It's available preorder on Amazon right now.

Can't find any reviews for it.
Sadly Spigen haven't made anything for the OP3 yet. Edit Apart from this
I thought the same, but a quick search of the product number brought me here, which kinda makes me a believer.

edit: nvm, this looks fake too (see edges on the back left)
and idk why I'm digging the web for a case smh.
Yeah I agree, I don't like the issue with the camera bump either on the Flexicase. But another case that has caught my eye was the Spigen case thats available for purchase soon, it's not a clear case like the Flexicase or anything but it looks clean and looks promising. Check it out and tell me what you think!

Was mainly asking for apps cause I see alot of people on this board talking about different updates and such but have no clue as to what they are; any kind that enhance the phone really.
Is this the case you were referring too - https://www.amazon.co.uk/OnePlus-Impressionante-Meccanica-Durevole-Protezione/dp/B01H3PEWDK? Looks simple design which is nice.
Ill look into a TGSP at a later date then, definitely dont want the rainbow effect really.
I did compare the size of my IPhone to a OP3T in a store and it was ridiculous, I find the IPhone screen way to small now making it hard to text.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H3PEWDK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
this is the one I bought. Feels really good in-hand. Wouldn't call it grippy but it's a really sleek and robust design i think
I was using this one https://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Resilient-Durability-Anti-Slip-Defensive/dp/B01K5I9CB4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1485313627&sr=8-1&keywords=ringke+v20 and replaced it with a Spigen that I've had better luck with, and also picked up a Spigen tempered glass screen protector.
This is the case I've been using since I got the phone. It's not thick and it does very well for me. It's fallen on it's screen a couple times from my desk at work and not one scratch. Would highly recommend.
What's your battery life like? Screen on time you usually get?
Also have this case and it's pretty nice, I also wanna get a dbrand skin skin they're cheap and have a lot of options.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01K5I9CB4/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_oHKUBbB7607T4
I wanted to buy the Spigen one when I got the V20 back when it was released, but Amazon was out of stock so I settled for the Ringke one.
It's survived multiple drops from shoulder level to gravel without barely any scratches to the case...
https://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Resilient-Durability-Anti-Slip-Defensive/dp/B01K5I9CB4/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1497711267&sr=1-1&keywords=ringke+v20
I use this Ringke Onyx case https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01K5I9CB4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_VlidBbQCARWWV for $10, it's highly durable, it provides protection for camera bump and also raised for screen protection. It also fits perfectly while also being easy to take it off. I use this case from the day I bought my V20 until today. It's already take quite a beating but still looking sleek. I also like the side grips this case provides.
Here's my 2cents. Advice above regarding cases is sound. The curved screen makes it hard to protect. So I initially ordered the uag rugged case. You can drop the phone from anywhere and it will be 100s. However, it was too much. The phone was just to bulky, my pockets were getting ruined, and the aux and charging ports were too much of a mission to access. So I have changed to this:
https://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Brushed-Flexible-Dynamic-Absorbent/dp/B01K5I9CB4
And it's amazing. I'll risk the screen for the slim fit.
Battery- I got this 2 weeks ago and have been swapping it daily with my original battery. So far seems legit and works better than the original:
https://www.amazon.com/LG-Battery-Charging-BCK-5200-International/dp/B01M5C23SV
Came here to say the say the same
I picked up this one
Very thin profile with a lip over the front and extends beyond the camera bulge and holds it about a millimeter or two above the resting surface. Cutouts are super accurate and it feels good and grippy in the hand.
People buy floor mats so they can turn the Chaperone off. If you're okay with a grid popping up in front of you when you get too close to the boundaries of your play space, then you don't need a mat.
As for padding the walls, people buy those after they've destroyed their first controller from punching a wall. If you are able to turn off that animalistic part of your brain that convinces you what you're experiencing is real, then you don't have to worry about padding your walls. But almost nobody is able to do that right away -- especially when they're new to VR -- so I'd recommend buying some skins for your controllers (and possibly headset too).
Something like this. https://www.amazon.com/Hyperkin-GelShell-Controller-Silicone-2-Pack-pc/dp/B01LEZO1ZO
I wish they were cheaper. Already had to buy two replacements after killing my original two controllers with sweat damage. Tip - check these out. I got them a few months ago and they do a great job of protecting the controllers from sweat and scratches.

I was printing the cups, but on about 70% it broke (Y axe not calibrated properly, moved the whole part from the spot so i had to stop)
I have to recalibrate my printer and try it again.
I suggest using duct tape. Its what im using for my current stock. Or buy those silicone covers, should work great too (heard from Protubevr creator he tested and they work as good as the ones with it).

I have these in white
You have no idea how many times you'll bang them together trying to pull the pin out of a grenade. Just buy them. Much less frequently I hit myself in the HMD, these are perfect for softening those blows as well. I also don't recommend any other brands as I've never tried them and these had the best reviews when I got them.
Don't think it would stop ribbons from coming loose, but I use these and they at least stop scuffs and scratches both on my walls and on the controllers as well. I'm sure they absorb a little bit of the impact in larger hits, but I doubt its anything substantial.
They are a great product though. I got them in white with for the HMD to match, and they both fit perfectly and look dope too.
I knocked over my display (my desk faces the play area) and scraped a controller against the wall hard. No serious damage but...
I was having so much fun, I didn't even care. I just laughed.
You might want some gel controller covers though. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LEZO1ZO
I picked up the Hyperkin silicone shells. here They keep it from getting scratched and absorb a small amount of the shock from contact.
The protectors I got are here: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LEZO1ZO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and they work great, comfortable etc.
I got a Bear Motion case for my Pixel for just this reason. It's very slim, adds a lot of grip and doesn't detract (much) from the sleek look of the Pixel.
Yes.
dont know if you are still looking or not but I have this Bear Motion case and I love it. Doesn't offer much protection though
Bear Motion cases on Amazon are really thin.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M0NBJ79/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_dp_B1qFyb2S6J1ZH
I have one on my Pixel and it's a good scratch protector, but not much else. But that's what I want. It barely adds any bulk to the phone at all.
Here's a really slim case that barely adds any weight or thickness, but gives the phone some much needed texture and http in the back. I bought this after seeing some people mention it on here and it's the exact thing I look for in a case. Not any impact protection at all, but covers enough to protect from scratches and scuffs.

So.... I, too, hate cases on phones but I'm SUPER prone to dropping my phone.
Enter the Spigen case.
You can thank me for this one later... I use this on my Pixel and it is awesome. Super lightweight but protects the phone from screen-down drops. I've dropped my Pixel at least a dozen times now and it's got nary a dent on it.
Last time i was to a Saturn haven't seen any Pixel accessories, maybe just call first? But if there's nothing in the online store.. I think you're out of luck. :)
Free (as in: I have Amazon Prime) same day delivery is applicable to this case, which i can recommend (apart from it being a bit ugly..):

Yeah, It was the rugged armor case for me that caused the issue. Spigen refuses to admit its a problem and won't redesign it. I'm using a case from Caseology now and my autofocus is perfect.
Here's the case. I love it so far. What type of pictures in particular would you like?
Depends on how important waterproofing is to you but one of these has done me well.

Then you can get whatever case you want otherwise. I combo Spigen Rugged Armor with one of those.

I have four different types of cases but my favorite by far is the Bear Motion Ultra Slim Case I have it in red and it looks great on my black Pixel. The red looks kinda pink on amazon but it is just red.
Also have the Spigen Rugged Armor for when I think I may need a bit more protection.
This Spigen is my favorite. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M1DZT8K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_KWJiybBA6E5JH
For the standard Pixel, I recommend the Spigen
RuggerRugged Armor (this is what I have) and for the Pixel XL, I recommend the Spigen Neo HybridPersonally, I've used Spigen cases for a while now and they've always served me well. I'd have opted for the Neo Hybrid for my Pixel is they made it, unfortunately, they don't. That being said, I'm very happy with the Rugged Armor case.
Would you get those two over this Spigen case?
Lmao, I'm actually Canadian! I went out of my way to find an American link since I figured it would be more applicable to most.
In that case, I have the Spigen Ultra Hybrid and Rugged Armor, and both are very slim.

I like that it hugs the case and isn't as bulky as the UAG. I watched a few drop tests for cases but there aren't any for the Pixel with a group of cases yet.
At the very least. I would recommend a grip case. I love my XL and all, but it's a bit too slippery. I bought https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M1DZT8K/ref=pd_sim_107_4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=DHQ5KRQT7ER5F3M4FPBG for mine (the XL version, of course). I'm loving it. It's TPU, so it's flexible, yet semi-rigid. It adds almost nothing to the size of the phone and it grips pretty well.
I've got the regular sized version of this case and so far I've been ok. But yeah, it's the exact same case, just smaller. I'll be keeping an eye out for that slot to make sure it stays clean. Thank you for the heads up!
I came from a Nexus 5 rooted on 4.4.4KK vanilla with some tweaks, which is almost as ancient sans the LTE (yes I'm still using it as a backup phone/random gaming phone at home). Here's what I've learned.
Case - I'm using a Spigen Rugged Armor, surpsingly it's thinner (despite it's name) than the Ultra Hybrid that's so popular. It is a bit tacky with the fake CF at the bottom, but the phone has just the right amount of grip, and buttons/ports are all working as intended. Can't complain about the price.
Screen Pro - although everyone has their choices, at least in Canada we don't get a good price on amazon.com so from amazon.ca the CaseBase 2-in-1 is the best for full coverage (only cutouts for the earpiece speaker and prox sensor) for the money
The swiping down from the fingerprint sensor on the back is actually quite easy to do, even with a case on. Definitely easier than trying to get to the top to swipe down one-handed (at least the way I hold my phone).
SystemUITuner - Enable battery % - Waiting on NRT, but WugFresh's Pixel XL was lost in shipment, so it's going to be a while till we get it.
Turn on the notification light (yes, there's one hidden in the earpiece speaker grill). Settings --> Notifications --> Gear Icon --> Pulse notification light
If you care about e-mail, make sure to enable gMail to have unrestricted background data access. I found when the phone was "sleeping" e-mails weren't being pushed so a notification could wake the phone and notify me. Settings --> Apps --> Gmail --> Data Usage. This also works for any other apps you want to be able to use data while the phone is in doze.
I have the Pixel XL and I can say I am completely happy with it (Switched to ProjectFi as well, I only use a little over a gig a month so its pretty cheap).
Battery life has been amazing. I don't use my phone a whole lot (browsing reddit, reading work emails, occasional youtube videos, looking up stuff, I might try a game every now and again but I prefer pc for that) and I probably get a solid two days in between charges to 70-80%. I'll occasionally charge to 100% if I'm going to be using a lot of GPS or something.
Performance wise no complaints either, everything feels really snappy and I haven't noticed and lag. I'd recommend a case because the metal body is slippery if your hands are dry, and one time it slipped out of my pocket onto the concrete when I knelt down putting a nice little scuff on the corner. I bought the following case and screen protector

The two pack of screen protectors is nice because you will eventually break one, I know I did.

Tried a few this is the best no joke. Good protection and the power button has texture.
I have this Spigen case and love it. Before that, I had a clear Google case which broke and kinda looked ugly.
Yes-- Keep checking this a few times a day until the model you want doesn't say "Out of Stock"
I love this phone. It's really nice. Using the Google site above, I paid $649 for the phone, $120 extra to make it "pixel XL" and $100 extra to make it 128GB. I didn't pay the extra $100 for the extended warranty, because I bought this case and this case and plan to keep it super safe. All in all it was about $924 with tax.
Using the standard free shipping Google provided, I got my phone in two days. Some people who got their phone through Verizon have been waiting several months at this point.
I also got my Daydream View VR headset last night, and I spent about 5 hours on it having a blast. It is amazing all you can do. The only issue I (and everyone else) has is that after about an hour the phone says "Please remove your phone so it can cool off" and then you realize your phone feels like a piece of molten lava. AKA, it gets very hot after about an hour of VR use. But you simply put in on a table and after maybe 6 minutes it's fine again for another hour.
Please let me know what questions you have about this phone.

I have the Spigen Rugged Armor Case and man I love this case. The design is superb and it's very grippy. I know this phone won't be slipping out of my hands.
No kickstand though, but it is a great case.
I've been happy with my Spigen Rugged Armor
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M1EEXWJ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'm loving this Spigen Rugged case so far. Very easy to pop on/off and it looks great

OP do you happen to have the Spigen Rugged Armor case? I was considering getting that case but if it causes issues then I might have to reconsider.
Spigen Rugged Armor I'm a huge fan of this case it's really the only case I've ever used on any phone that I don't feel a compulsive need to strip off.
I also don't have a screen protector and despite having a fairly rough job at times I only have a few very minor superficial scratches that I can only see with the screen off, a freshly cleaned screen and the light hitting it just right.
Actually it's not diztronic case

This is the one I have. Really thin, fits well, protects everything. I really like it
My phone is a tool these days and I am boring.
128GB Black Pixel in a thin black shell and no screen protector. I stuck a metal plate inside the case so I can slap it on my car mount.
Stock Pixel Launcher; not even rooted. I VPN to my home network at all times and route DNS through my Pi-Hole for ad-blocking.
For years, starting with my Nexus S, I used to flash firmware daily, swap between kernels just as frequently, custom themes, KLWP, blah, blah, blah. I'm a busy dude now. I have 3 kids and a very demanding IT career. I have other tech toys to play with, but my phone just needs to work, every minute of every day. The Pixel does and I love it.
I love my black Maxboost case. It's pretty thin and looks badass with my Quite Black. When I had an iPhone it was also my favorite brand of case. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M3MQCG0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_Tr8oyb0SYHJVN
I even bought and returned one of the $40 Google cases with the map print. It just didn't look as good as the really cheap Maxboost.
I loved my Ringke Slim on my Nexus 5X and was sad to see them not make a Slim for the Pixel, so I went with this and I dig it
I've got this Maxboost mSnap and it's pretty sleek compared to my Caseology, which I use every day for the extra protection.
I tied a small quick release lanyard to the mSnap and attach it inside my ski jacket. Still fits nicely with that loop through there.
I don't like the bear motion because it leaves the top and bottom wide open. I got the Max boost Msnap and love it. It's super thin, phone almost feels naked

Might want to invest in some of these.
2 Packs Protective Frame and Silicon Protective Case for HTC Vive/Vive Pro Controllers MDW https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XDLMYMQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_r35SBb8S4330K
I bought https://www.amazon.com/MDW-Updated-Version-Protective-Controllers/dp/B06XDLMYMQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1497313793&sr=8-2&keywords=htc+vive+controller+protector
I haven't used them yet, just assembled before work... The side sensors are outside of the cage... but if you bump something lightly it puts my mind at ease compared to just the controller taking the bump.
The plastic is a little flexible since it isn't as hard as the controller plastic... but I don't think it would save anything if you punched it through a wall since I don't think the plastic is really that strong enough.
If I remember to update this after I use them and bump something I'll let you know.
As said it's more than likely wiring that's come loose. Also I'd suggest asking the arcade to invest in these https://www.amazon.com/Packs-Protective-Silicon-Controllers-MDW/dp/B06XDLMYMQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1541789367&sr=8-3&keywords=Protective+Frame+and+Silicon+Protective+Case if they already haven't.
I have 2 freinds with this one you listed. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XDLMYMQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_sa5KzbFC8RR2S . Both really like it. They have small play spaces and tend to hit shit around them.
I've got a set of these coming:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XDLMYMQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
...before I grab this game. Going to use just the cages as the reviews say the silicone sucks.
Can't wait. Only tried an early beta from their site. I just remembered that this and holoball were the only things that made my controller hit the wall so I didn't buy day one when released on Stream. Refunded Holoball due to this(wasn't that great of a game to warrant any controller risk), I hope these cages will save my controllers with Gorn, as that beta was fun as hell.
I use https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XDLMYMQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The idea everyone is pushing of OP going overboard sounds pretty extreme, but they will at least have a good whack at the railing with their controllers no doubt. OP, at least consider a protective frame if you haven't already. Maybe also rotate the couch 180 degrees.
Now that you mention it... That's exactly what I ordered and I'm an idiot for thinking a skin would offer more than the slightest bit of protection beyond scratches.
I'll see if it is too late to cancel and order these.

It works great with my Spigen and SUP cases. Specifically this and this
Spigen Ultra Hybrid try this case its been a favorite mine since the iphone 6. I still haven’t gotten a wireless charger. Im debating if i want one that is lying flat or if i want a charger that the phone can lean against. 😅 Decision!
Yeah, I used to use a Spigen Case and it was super thin. I love the black camo though...
This is the one I ordered (and it arrived Monday); Amazon advertises it as fitting both X and Xs, but Spigen's site isn't very clear. The photos look very similar, so it's hard to tell. I guess I'll find out on Friday.
The 2 stores by me don't have any cases or screen protectors.
There are only 3 cases I can find right now.
These are the only ones I could find last night that are made specifically for the essential phone.
dbrand makes some skins which should help with the slipperiness if you don't particularly care about edge protection from a case.
I'm happy with the Tudia case. It looks much better in person than in the photos...doesn't look as gaudy. The nubby texture on the sides is great and the fit is as good as I've seen a TPU case on any phone. I don't use screen protectors on this phone or any phone.

https://www.amazon.com/Essential-TUDIA-Carbon-Lightweight-Absorption/dp/B0762F2T19
personally recommend this
I'm a little late, but the Tudia TAMM has worked great for me. Matte, no cutouts, does have some patterns on the side for grip and the top/bottom for...coolness I guess. Protected my phone when it fell from like stomach height off my bed onto tile. Link if you wanna check it out: https://www.amazon.com/Essential-TUDIA-Carbon-Lightweight-Absorption/dp/B0762F2T19
I have been using this one for the past 6 months and I'm extremely pleased with it. Fits perfectly, doesn't interfere with the screen & is slim and just smooth enough to slide in/out of pocket with minimal resistance.

and this case: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0762F2T19?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd
They fit perfectly together and haven't had any issues with either.
Spigen. They have some great cases. Durable and definitely protect your phone. This case is my go to.
I bought the Tudia, great case and cheap.

That's the Spigen Ultra Hybrid (available cheaper on Amazon).
I have the Ringke Fusion clear case with my black carbon Dbrand skin. It fits fine.

Get a skin set and get this case.

this one
I use this Spigen Thin fit case.
I would definitely recommend.
Does anyone with the GelShell controller skins have a comment on whether they improve gameplay (i.e. feel better, controller easier to grip, etc)?
I don't care about looks and I'm not worried about my controllers getting scuffed, but I would consider buying if you think tactilely they feel better than original controller?

Check out the reviews on it if you want more evidence. =)

I went with this case and this screen protector. They work good together, it helps keep the X slim but totally protected. I also have custom skin to show through the clear back.
Doesn't matter to me since its removable, I always buy ZeroLemon batteries.
Ok I have this J&D Case it's super slim and is more for small drops and cause this phone is super slippery. There is also this Spigen Rugged Case it's more protective without being super bulky. This Supcase Heavy Duty is even more protective. But the most protective case I could find on Amazon that didn't have bad reviews/none was this beauty.
