QWIKSTRIKE Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 I have the diztronic on my Galaxy nexus now, but was thinking of getting a more secure case. I ORDERED THIS AND IT WILL BE HERE IN A WEEK OR SO http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FORK3SI/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jswets Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Can anyone recommend a wireless charger that can fit the nexus 5 and nexus 7 on it at once? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerxx Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Case is coming today. I just hope it fits.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerxx Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Ordered this Case. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EV8Y50S/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 These Screen Protectors. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EPLT8O4/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Screen protectors are standard, they work just fine. The Spigen case is great if you're a minimalist. The front edges are raised just slightly, enough that you can put the phone face down on a 100% FLAT AND LEVEL surface without touching the screen. The back of the case ensures that the camera lens doesn't touch when you set the phone down. Case fits very tight, no loose areas at all. Very happy.

Moropo Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Where is the supposed google wireless charging pad? It was announced by TheVerge and Engadget the day the Nexus5 came out: http://www.theverge.com/2013/10/31/5051354/google-launches-new-wireless-charging-pad-for-nexus-5-and-nexus-7 I wonder where they got this information because I havent heard anything from Google... Anyways they lost a sale. I just ordered a Nokia one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A3NCBNI/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerxx Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I have heard that the wireless charging pads really hurt the battery life of the phone. EDIT: Just looked at the Nexus wireless charging pad. Want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcarp Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Does anyone know of a true bumper case for this phone where there's absolutely nothing on the back, not even a clear panel, there is simply a bumper around the phone edges? Lots of these for the iPhone but I am not finding one for the Nexus 5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jordanlong20 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 i'm anticipating what Seidio (who make the PT cases for Best Buy) will come up. them or the otterbox commuter. I really liked that for the EVO 4g LTE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wobbypetty Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Found out the N5 has a magnetic ring built-in around the lens housing for add-on lenses.

shifted Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I just picked up two of these Nokia DT-900 wireless chargers. ATT has them on sale for $24.50 and you get 10% off each one if you buy two. I think the percent off goes up even more if you buy 3. Free shipping as well. So far it has worked fine. It isn't picky about placement at all. http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/accessories/chargers/sku6290260.html#fbid=MA336A00z6H 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't picky about placement at all. http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/accessories/chargers/sku6290260.html#fbid=MA336A00z6H I saw this deal the other day, but (being the instant-gratification type of guy that i am) i stopped in my local AT&T store to see if they had these in stock and if they could match the online prince. The in-store deal they were running was $20 per Nokia wireless charger. It was supposed to be "with purchase of a Nokia phone", but the manager said he'd sell me 2 for $20 each, so i'm a happy guy. I've never tried wireless charging before, but with the battery life not being as stellar as my Note 2, i decided that having a wireless charger on my desk at work would make a lot of sense, and having one next to my bed would make wrestling the charger away from the phone when i get an early morning phone call or email no longer a problem. So far i'm very happy with these, and they work with my Nexus 7, too! At $20 per charger, how can you lose? -d 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately AT&T seems to be going in and out of stock and my order hasn't even shipped yet. But I have one for my bedside table and it works great and, like you say, does not have picky placement. Battery is charged to 100% and holds just fine until removed from the charger pad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
