Solutions to slippery Mi4C - Xiaomi Mi 4C

Not sure if others concur, but I find the phone very slippery due to the smooth plastic back cover (referring to white version here, though not sure if colour makes a difference).
Other than installing a 'bumper' style cover that makes the phone much larger (and noticeably heavier), what solutions do you suggest?
Can the back cover be replaced with a Nexus 5 style back cover (if available)? Or are there thin stickers that can instill more grip (e.g. sandpaper finish)?

I got the darker version and yeah, the back is kinda slippery. I also looked for backstickers, like what slickwraps and dbrand are offering, but I didn't find anything.
Today I ordered the official xiaomi plastic cases and I'm curious how thick it will make the Mi4C. Maybe still thin enough that I'll keep it...

I have to admit, I am happy I ordered a case with the phone, in my situation, the Nillkin Frosted Shield. Big improvement, but if dbrand had something, I would be happy!

I hope you give a little feedback after you have it thinking of buying the same...

Yea no problem, I ordered one from China but its still not here so ordered this so should be here next week

I did he same as TheNacho. I bought a Nillkin Frosted Shield and I really like it. In my opinion the case is very thin and gives it a good grip, it also feels like a good quality case with perfect fit.
It do also give a small small edge around the screen, which covers the screen a little bit if you put the phone down with the screen downwards (or if you drop it)

I also have a Nillkin frosted cover, but the phone looks much better without it...but its sooo slippery

Hm, I really don't know. The phone looks very nice without a case, but it surely look very nice with the case as well

I once bought a 0.3mm ultra-thin case for my Mi4. But it broke pretty soon... maybe 0.3mm is just too thin, I don't know

Hardcover or TPU?

I've already forgotten the hardcover Yeah, I had both. The hardcover began pretty fast to crack at the corners (because of the pressure?).
The TPU was a bit more stable, but it began to crack near the headphone jack after a while.

@rob rich got it today (came in 3 days) and its bulkier than the image on ebay. The back is not completely transparent like the rest of the case but a foggish white. But I can grip it easily and thats good for me.

Ok, I'm searching for something really really slim
I'm not afraid of let it fall (never happens to me) but I'm afraid of scratches on the back and on camera lens without case...
I'm sure there are some cool cases in China, so i would be happy if someone could point me in the right direction.

So you're not happy with the Nillkin case you got? I would suggest taking a look at AliExpress or eBay, loads of cases available there and I'm sure you'll find something good.

I drop phones but not too much so I always buy a case. O didn't use the mi4c for 2 weeks because my case wasn't here but had to use it in the end.
Anyway, I ordered last month and its still not here yet. Looks slim but won't know till it gets here

Just bought one. I like the looks of it.

Even better is this case I bought http://cimousa.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=22_23&products_id=112

Just an FYI. Ultra Case's "The One" case can be found on ebay for around 5 bucks instead of the ridiculous 20 they want on their web site. It wouldn't surprise me if this "black" case is on ebay too.

The point I was making is ultra case is selling a $3 case for 20 bucks and it wouldn't surprise me if their "Black" case shows up on ebay for a few bucks too. I already have a nice, blue hard shell case that offers more than just covering the phone's back for 20 bucks.

Not sure if this is the real deal that Sammy has been shipping with their asian GS4s but it sure does look like it. Judging by the reviews, it seems to be. Anywho, I ordered mine on Saturday. Should be here at some point today. Can't wait to slap it on and never use a case again! Will report back later. Cheers!

I wish! I've been looking for a very thin and small profile aluminum or aluminum type bumper for a long time now. Keep me updated if you find one.
Looks exactly like the one I got off a seller on ebay, for a similar price too. It's well made with no signs of it being a cheap fake. Makes the phone so much easier to grip compared to stock battery cover.

Ultra Thin 0.3mm Soft Case

Has anyone found an ultra slim soft semi-transparent case for the 6p? something like 0.3mm or 0.5mm like this:
ORZLY - "FlexiSlim"
or
SHUMURI - "Slim"
or
CAUDABE - "Veil XT"
or
PEEL - "Case"
I would post a link to all those examples but I cant post links yet.
All these have a soft matte finish with all around coverage (hate the ones that are cut out at the bottom and top) and a semi transparent finish that I think would look great. They would still show off the back of the 6p without fully covering it. Any help finding something like this?
I think a smoke case similar like the ones above would look great with the graphite 6p and a tempered glass screen protector. Almost fully naked 6p but with some protection.
Uhh, nope. Haven't seen anything that thin with out it being hard PC. These are soft TPU, but no clue on thickness.

Thanks for those suggestions, had already looked at all those. Don't exactly fit the bill of what I'm looking for. Look fairly thick. Since Orzly made a 0.5mm case for last year's nexus 6, hopefully they make one for the 6p.
Im considering this one

That one looks good except that it has the top and bottom open. Hate that. It digs into your fingers when holding it and resting the bottom of the phone on your pinky when using it.
Still searching for something like Veil XT or Peel
Any luck finding anything?
I had the Peel on my iphone and it was absolutely slick but I doubt peel or caudabe will make one for the nex :/
Just got to wait for the flexislim i guess, which will probably be the next best thing...if they do decide to make one of course
Yeah I'm also looking for something like this, but it seems out of the 4 brands mentioned in the OP, only the Orzly has any chance of being available in the future. The other 3 only make Apple cases.
Contacted Orzly yesterday. Looks like we're not getting the flexislim

Oh! So close. Would there be one that does have the sensor cutout? I'm looking for one of these hard cases that cover the bump glass (unlike the Spigen one) and if they're translucent, I want matte.

What are the best cases for the red OP6?

Hi all, I bought the red OP6 a couple of weeks ago and have been using the clear case that was included. I have some mixed feelings about it, the positives for me are the raised corners to protect the screen (I just wish they would have done something similar for the camera), all buttons work perfectly and is clear to show off the amazing red color. I just have one negative issue which for me is very annoying, just at the middle in the back it sticks to the phone like if it is wet, which looks very bad, and creates the rainbow effect to the sides. So with this in mind, I am looking for a new case which hopefully doesn't have this issue.
Which would be the most recommended? And if any of you are using them please post some pics, I can´t seem to find any of the red OP6 in a case.
Thanks guys!

It's not bad at all. There are cases with higher raised edges but the case is pretty nice and does offer decent protection. The Ringke fusion is also a great option.

There are little nubs on each corner of the Ringke to prevent it from hitting the desk or table when you put it down which eliminates a lot of the scratching. I used mine for a week and don't see any scratches in it. In the second to last photo the Orzly is on the left and Ringke is on the right. The last photos is the Ringke on the phone.
I have the Ringke clear also *I'm kind of a horder with cases lol* and because of the back being such a hard plastic it has grazes all over it. Dunno if its from being in the pocket with something else or whatever really. Also the cut out for the volume notch is totally off placement. I just can't find one that I'm like wow awesome atm. Although the Spigen case is pretty dam good but I have a dbrand skin on and it isn't a clear case unfortunately as you also would like. Would you consider a bumper case like Rhinoshields? I am awaiting mine to try out.

The Rhinoshield looks similar to the Orzly. I'm also a case hoarder and have 7 cases for the OP6. Every time a new one comes out that looks good I buy it. So far the Orzly is my favorite.
i dont think you should use a case on a red oneplus but no doubt the official red case is nice but my most used case if the nylon case which is so damn perfect... looks nice but also adds lots of grip and protection
Check Ringke Fusion case

Would not recommend it. I bought it, and the back doesn't sit close enough to the phone. At the camera cut-out there is about 1-2mm of space between the back of the case and the phone. If u don't have any skin on it you will scratch the back of your phone from all the dust and partials that can get through it.
Recommend these for the RED OP6. I own the first one.
# Good Quality. Fits well.
# Rubberised in and out.
# No room on the inside to cause scratches.
# Transparent Back.
# Decent lip on the front. Not the best raise, but certainly helps when flipping the phone over without having the screen touch the surface. Might be a problem for phone with a tempered glass. Check comments on Amazon for more info.

Thanks for the feedback, I too heard that the scratches in the Ringke came from evryday use and just having it in your pocket, whic is what worries me.
I do want to try the Rhinoshields bumper, I had one in my iPhone and an S7 and really liked them, but I am not sure how it would look since there is only black or white, and I think it takes away from the red phone aesthetics.
The Supcase might be the one, it looks pretty cool, except maybe for the black bumper. If ti were red or clear it would be a total winner.
Anyone has any experience with the Nillkin Nature Series? It looks nice !

Thats very true, my ringke fusion get all scratchy and I just kept my phone in my pocket. To cover the damage of ringke i covered it with the carbon fibre skin and now it looks more like a bumper from oneplus except for the logo.

i might be getting a clear case in a few weeks, i feel it is cruel to hide this beautiful Red beast.

Cases for the XZ3

Anyone thinking or get a case yet for the XZ3? I was looking towards a thin and transparent case. I got the bordaeux red one, so if anyone could recommend a nice clear case, that'd be great.
i will probably go for the official one, the Style Cover Touch CT70 for Xperia XZ3 but i am waiting for a review. I am really concerned about the strength of the transparent part being glued to the back part. I used to have the original for the compact x. It was super functional and beauty but after a couple of months the transparent cover detached (no hard use). On Monday i will go for something like this

from a local store (much cheaper) until i find out more about the original, the only descent bordaeux red so far. I got a black phone by the way.

i will probably go for the official one, the Style Cover Touch CT70 for Xperia XZ3 but i am waiting for a review. I am really concerned about the strength of the transparent part being glued to the back part. I used to have the original for the compact x.

Lucky mobilefun has a US website.
Anyways, I was looking to get the Olixar clear one, but only the snap on case is available in the US. I might just get the Roxfit case instead, however it's not yet in stock; have to wait a few days. Thanks for these!

I have the ct70 and it's my first cover case... I'm torn because the cover blurs the beautiful screen.
Can't find many in stock options and ringke already told me they won't make one. Spigen were vague so... Waiting for now

That sucks! I was looking forward to Ringke cases. Hopefully skinomi will come out with techskins so I wouldn't have to use a case anymore. I did, however get this case on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GNFDXLK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It's a nice, slim, and cheap case.

Yes I really like ringke too. For now I'm waiting on a roxfit soft case. I'm super sceptical about a glass screen protector with the curved screen

I purchased a glass protector from mobilefun, made the screen really unresponsive. So back to no protection.

You made me have second thoughts about ct70, thanks
Official case for xz3 in India other than mobilefun.?
Well, seems ringke listened.

hi, does it fit well, and all the ports and holes are well centered?
i bought a cheap the same kind of what you bought and it's terrible... doesn't fit well, and all ports and holes are not well centered!
i want a perfect one, if you can do me a favor take pictures to your phone with that case from all sides PLEASE!
thank you

Yep! It fits well. I ended up buying the Ringke Fusion X case. This case fits better. It's more snug, so hopefully no dust will get underneath the case. The front is raised too so you can place the phone face down. Corners are also well reinforced.
Just get the smart cover

if it was exactly like the one of XZ2 Premium... look how beautiful it is, and also it has 2 color options: clear and smoke black!
Why are there so few cases? And like no screen protectors at all? I got the impression the XZ3 was a public success.
I have the silver model and it's hard to find nice looking defense for it. Idk about the official flip cover, it doesn't look that safe really. And I've like never ever had a flip case, it might turn out being unfit in some circumstances.
I like original Sony Style Case Touch 'SCTH70' with Window and really love it
Happy New 2019 guys
I ordered the official Sony flip case from Amazon.
I posted in another thread... but I hope it works with the full screen protector I ordered. Also, as protection goes, it's hard to tell just how effective it is when dropped.
I got a Roxfit 'made for Xperia' hardshell - protection is fairly minimal tbh but it stops the phone sliding off everything!
