any thoughts? I have the opportunity to get the nillkin frost shield bundle with the phone from aliexpress and was wondering if it has raised lips to protect the display.
Also does the 2s come with installed screen protector whilst I wait for the tempered glass to make its way (separately)?

Many thanks!

iii had a look at the unboxing videos and can't see the screen protection. I see frosty film which is taken off but not quite the same screen protector as seen on the op6 ( factory fitted ).
perhaps I'm wrong, can you kindly let me know?
many thanks!

You can see the case in this video:

I have the white version so my cover is white.

thanks, sorry i meant the screen protector, i suppose it's a no :).
p.s. is the case raised so that the display is protected when facing down?
how do you like the phone?

I just got the official leather case. Not super thin like the one that comes with the phone, but still feels good and it's raised above the screen.

Where did you order it? Is it raised that you can put it upside down without the screen touching the table? And also that the camera lens doesnt touch the table?

That is correct, raised from touching the screen or camera lens (and that's with a glass protector I have on the camera lens). I got it from AliExpress.

This is my favorite case of the ones I have purchased so far. It's nice and grippy, has raised edges above screen level and feels more protective than a TPU Sleeve/cover without adding noticable bulk or weight.

This is my second favorite case. I don't like the design with the bumper corners as much but it is grippy and feels like it provides above average protection. It also has raised edges to protect the screen.

I ordered the fabric case someone recommended above but it hasn't arrived yet.

    I've got the Nilkin frosted case and the Nilkin TPU case. Both are slightly raised so you can put it facedown with no issues.

    I mean I could have bought this case
    http://s.aliexpress.com/EZbUNfqE?fromSns but I like being able to put my phone in a pocket.

    If the glass back does nothing structurally it could always be removed before I break it ?

    It seems to be a hard ask to find a case that's both appealing to me with drop protection, one case should be here by next week I'll see how it compares to my MOFI case.
    That looks like a seriously protective case but I don't know that I would still enjoy using my phone after that sucker was on it.

    I'm pretty sure you won't be able to remove the glass back on the other case. The glass is likely a screen protector. I think the idea with that type of case is to make it feel in your hand like your phone isn't in a case. You probably don't want to use that case if you keep your phone in a tight pocket but it probably does look nice.

    Good luck again.
