what is up with the cutouts on the render? they are awfully tiny on the volume and power. I hope that's not how it really looks but it's not really worth it since you can get the same thing from rearth.

If SGP made a bumper, I'd be all over.
The ultra thin case does look similar to those on eBay indeed.
A Neo Hybrid Ex Bumper to be exact, and I will gladly pay $20-$30.

Go to their FB page and post that you want a bumper case, their already a few post already doing the same.

Sent from my Nexus 4

posted on their fb wall about having other thin cases out there with way lower price that what they'll be offering. also pointed out the how poetic bumper sales are thriving for their bumper case...

their response was "the price depends on what the package comes with"...so I had guessed they'll include their screen protector with the case...but still cant see why they proceed with the project when you can get the same case for around $2 on ebay..:confused:

This case is quite a disappointment...I associate SGP with making unique cases, not something so obviously generic looking. I'd really like to see them release something for the Nexus 4 like the Neo or Ultra Hybrids they had for the Galaxy Nexus, or the Linear Metal or Hybrid EX cases they have for the iPhone 5. Now those all look unique from the other stuff out in the market currently.

they will, it will take some time though because on the limited availability of the phone
I think the quantity of these phones in the market is enough to warrant a good sale...just look at the poetic bumper case :

ebay = 818
amazon = more than 149 (based on reviews number, so the exact quantity should be more than that)

They've raked up more than $10 grand of revenue from a single case model...

and sales from both sites are still counting, since other case manufacturers are still skeptic of the market size for this phone's casing...

So Cal, California
received my case today!

feels nice, smooth of course lol.

but it feels a bit loose, but it does hold the phone in. The top part of the case is a bit loose with the phone in it, the bottom part is firm and in place.

Maybe because i have a back screen protector on it, but i highly doubt it.

gonna shoot them a email in a bit about it

this is so going to be a product marketing failure...

throwing something very few wants, in a market already filled with it, at a higher price...thats like 3 flukes in one go

its like selling shaved ice out in the cold, in the middle of winter, at a higher price than in summer.

disappointed in SGP

-sigh-

Did you see if you could bend the corners in for a better fit? Kind of like with the original, non-revised Ringke Slim.

lol! :D:laugh::laugh:
What we really need is a case that only covers the top and bottom and leaves the sides exposed. Would love to take full advantage of those curved edges.
