*** Nexus 5 Accessory Thread ***

guys I don't know if i want a soft or hard gel case?

surely soft is better for impact if i drop it? will a soft case not fit the phone as well as the hard one?
 
Soft cases warp with time and allows dust to get in.

I find most cases just stop the screen physically hitting the ground and the shell getting scratched.

I don't think any soft cases are anywhere near big enough to offer any real form of damping effect on drops, but that's generally not the reason phones die from being dropped.

Source: My note II signal was crap after it got dropped in a soft/hard hybrid otterbox case. fixed by replacing the motherboard due to a loose/broken connection.

Hi

Thank you for your recent purchase from us. Unfortunately we have just been informed that the wrong screen protectors which were included with your case, were sent out in error.

Therefore what you have received will not fit the Nexus 5.

Please accept our sincere apologies for this mix-up. We are equally disappointed with this situation as the screen protectors were supposed to be a gift from us to celebrate the launch of the new Nexus 5.

Rest assured, we will be posting out the correct ones to you. If for any reason, you have not received these after 10 days from date of this email, please email us to let us know, and we will look in to it for you.

Once again, apologies for any inconvenience this may cause you and we hope that you are at least enjoying or will like the case that you ordered.

Kind Regards,

G-HUB
 
Has anyone used one of these slimport adaports for HDMI out, was thinking of getting one for TV on the go, away with work, but ive seen mixed reviews, are they worth it?

be quick i just grabbed the second last one, so only one left in stock.

about £10 cheaper than everywhere else since it's grade B stock.

i bought one of these yesterday, had a £5 voucher from ebay so made the deal even sweeter :D

on another note received my diztronic case today from the US

pretty good case but the camera cutout is a bit off and the speaker cutouts too.

may send them an email with a few pics and get them to hopefully tweak the design a little

^^ Surely your bigger issue is the plastic covers still on! :p

Almost posted this in the regular N5 thread, there's a lot of QI chat going on there.

What I would really like is a universal car mount, with a QI charger built into the back plate. Does it exist yet?
