Ringke Cover for Motorola Atrix.

Today I got in the mail a new case for my Atrix. The only case i had gotten for this phone was the Otterbox Impact. This case is slimmer than the Otterbox. it also seems to be a bit more firmer. i was playing around with both the Otterbox and the Ringke case and i found my self applying a bit more pressure to fold them. yes their both siliconish like but im starting to like it a lot. it doesn't add that much bulk and it also solves the super slippery grip on the phone itself. I find my self liking this case more than the Otterbox. less bulk and less slippery. the otterbox had a grip issue for some reason.

Besides the pretty packaging, it is almost the same as the hard case I got via Amazon for $3.45 shipped.
its not a hard case tho. its like silicon/tpu kind of. i learned my lesson with hard cases with my backflip. its messed up the side of the phone pretty bad.

Yea. Right now i have a cheapy eBay TPU case for my Atrix. Nice case overall. Waiting on one of those Pure Gear cases i ordered which should arrive tomorrow. Figured i'd see what it's like. standard shipping was free, and the case itself was only like $20, so i figured if i don't like it much, i could either possibly resell it, or i'm just out a little bit of money. Wouldn't be the first time i bought a case for a phone that i wound up not using. Waited so long for one of those Tech21 iBand's for the iPhone 4.... but when i finally got one, it was so thick that it was difficult to reach the ring/vibrate switch, and the lock/power button was just odd to press. Wound up still using the free smoke colored case from InCase for that whole thing Apple did about the antennagate until i sold the phone, and sold the iBand along with it.

Hmm.... i just got one of the Pure Gear cases... but i'm now tempted to get one of those, too.... Aqua Black is kinda neat. though i don't see why they didn't just call it "Smoke" like everyone else does.

No I haven't. All I have ever had is a otterbox.

I just got one for free from Rearth to review. It was blue like this. I LOVE IT! It has to be in my top 3 favorites (I own every major case out there for the Atrix). It beats out the OBD for me and the feather. I really want the new Trident Aegis though.

Grey.... black.... to-ma-to.... to-mah-to.... either way it's a shade of grey.... and it's transparent. Calling something Aqua Black will just confuse people, and make them think it's something totally different... when it's more than likely smoke.

I just got a review unit as well. I literally just got mine today, so I can't say too much about it, but I am liking it more than I expected. I've used cases on a couple other phones and always ended up disliking the case, but I could see myself continuing to use this. Mine is the maroon color... I'll post pics up with a better review once I've had at least a day or 2 of use.

Stretching damage?

This one is okay. buttons are all accessible easily. i like the feel to it to.
The case looks very nice. They offer a plug for the headphone jack on the website. However they are saying that taking off the cover to replace the battery a number of times will eventually stretch the case out of shape which is unacceptable, expecially considering the price. It doesn't say exactly how many times you can take the cover on and off before it loses its shape.

as do all cases do and $16.99 thats cheap


Broke down and ordered this case reason's being
Thin and no bulkness added
protects around the edges which is important to keep the case intact when the phone drops
its light
its colorful
as many of you saying that it will stretch out thats only for people who takes there battery out 10 times a day which i dont
