This looks pretty nice. But I would only get it if I had the red Nexus 5 though...I can't see a reason to get a red case for a black phone.

Bright Red? How bright we talking about I wonder? There's Crimson Red for other phones they make so I guess brighter then that.

Something to match the colour tone of the Red Nexus 5 I assume.

Happy I saw this thread.

So the question is which to get?
Ultra Fit
Ultra Hybrid
Neo Hybrid
Slim Armor

And do any of these work with Spigen screen protectors?

Can we buy just the frames?



I wanted the silver but amazon had the gold one for $13.99 so went with the gold.
Gotta say I really LOVE this bumper, the back feel is so smooth...can't stop touching it sometimes :D

Neo Hybrid. I thought at the beginning I'd get the slate gray base and later just buy the metal bumpers but Spigen does not seem to be offering the bumpers alone.

The Ultra Fit comes with the Chrystal Shell screen protector.

I emailed them asking about just buying a separate frame I myself have a gold neo hybrid because it was cheaper (on amazon) lol and love it the color is okay, it definitely will get a bit of attention with the neo hybrid and people asking if its the phone itself or a case, anyways I'm hoping they'll reply soon, others should email them and ask if they could sell just the frames and see if you guys get a response

Literally searched high and low to find just the metal frame bumpers, but couldn't find none for our Nexus 5's. Did find some for iPhone 4-5S and Galaxy S4. I also emailed them if they could sell us just the frames for our N5's since they sell them for 5 other devices, waiting for reply.

Are those bumpers really metal? I thought they are just plastic... No?

Edit: I meant those bumpers in neo hybrids

Need a case for my Red Nexus 5. How does Red ultra hybrid look? Does the color match the nexus color, since its only red on sides and back is transparent? Also is it rubber-like or plastic?

Or is it better to go for a clear ultra hybrid?

    Ordered the Red Neo Hybrid yesterday. Have the other three colors. The Neo Hybrid is a great bumper case.

    Just arrived today... Its borderline orange. Calling it "bright red" isn't misleading, but also leaves it open to interpretation. The photos from Spigen make it look to be a cherry red rather than an orange/red.

    Edit: I'll post some more photos later today and try to edit them so the color of the case renders correctly on the N5 screen.

    I agree it's not the vibrant red they have pictured. I also think it's just a stock photo they probably whipped up until they got an actual red nexus in their hands.

    Have you seen the red nexus? It's nowhere near the vibrant red google has pictured on their site.

    Spigen probably got the phone, adjusted the color and not the stock photo. If I had to guess.
