Bumper case clone

[Froid]

Looks like eBay sellers are starting to carry these, but some are claiming they're official. Check the colors..pretty sure Google isn't carrying blue. They look good and for the price....pshhh. Right now take another $5 off the amazon deal.

Lol..I started laughing when I saw my shipping date. Kind of hoping, like everything else I order from amazon, it just shows up two days later like magic

Have had one for a few days now off eBay.

Knew it was obviously fake due to price but thought I'd try it out anyway (packaging was fantastic lol, taped up Google box)

The sides of the case come in on an angle towards the phone, not sure if it's like that on official model. Buttons are literally 1-1.5mm in height so pressing them is impossible.

Apart from those defects, the case fits great

Sounds the same as the official case.

Thanks for the info. Wouldn't be surprised if they are exact replicas of the original with maybe some color variations...And I noticed the taped up Google packaging on one of the eBay listings..lol

I'd be a bit worried. Google couldn't even get the case right with it's early degradation problems. Maybe this will be a case of the knock off being superior to the real thing? I'd have my doubts though.

Can someone that has this case post pictures?

How much are you guys getting these? On eBay they're 22 and amazon 18? A bit expensive for a clone isn't it?

Amazon was knocking another $5 off at checkout. I do think that's still expensive considering you can get a tpu case for a couple bucks, but when comparing to what Google's charging, its a decent deal if the quality is the same or better.

Just received the black case. It came in a legit Google package that didn't look to be tampered with. Only issue being the packaging is for a gray case. The case fits like a glove and quality seems alright. The color is uniform throughout, unlike the two toned look of the Google bumper. Overall I'm satisfied..

BTW..button press seems fine. Not difficult at all

Shenit did the replica Nexus 4 bumpers as well so they're not genuine Google just a very good replica

Yeah looks like they're not selling on Amazon anymore(or for now)..You can still find them on eBay, but gonna pay a bit more.
