LG Google Nexus Case
This cover definitely lives up to expectations
It does seem to be a fluff-magnet, especially if you carry it in your pocket. But it’s easy to clean.
The only issue I have with it is how it covers or "frame" the front. It is raised about 2 mm which gives great protection if you put it face-down on a flat surface, and it won’t move around and slide off the table, but it also covers about 2mm of each of the vertical sides of the screen which makes activating slide-over screens and menus very awkward as it is hard to get you finger in far enough to trigger it. After using it for about 2 weeks, it is now so annoying that I’ve decided to order the Seidio cover and give that a try.

Solid, strong and good looking
Dislike: The rubber seems to be a dust and pocket fluff magnet. Not a huge issue but it's enough to be noticed. On the screen side the rubber covers about 3mm of the screen edges which makes activating vertical slide-in menus difficult to activate as you cannot get your finger close enough to the screen edge to start the swipe action. You have to push against the rubber to get it to work and after some practise it's not really a big issue, but still annoying and sometimes may take multiple attempts to get it to work.
Besides the swipe issue it is still a great product from a protection point of view but considering the price I would probably get the cheaper Seidio if I had to buy one again.

Nexus 4 Ballistic Case Review
Nexus 4 Ballistic Case Review
Pleasanty Surprised!
Means you can treat the phone, like a phone/Tigger
Makes phone heavier, but safer, meaning I now just get on and use the thing like a phone. It should bounce rather than shatter, a bit like a Tigger. (Best resist any reference to making a mobile fun fun fun etc)
Ordered mid Friday afternoon and arrived Saturday morning. Cant better that really.
best nexus 4 case out there
Best case I could find
There are cut outs for the microphone, headphone jack and charger. The proximity sensor and front and rear cameras are unobscured by the case and the volume rocker is actually easier to operate.
The case doesn't cheapen the appearance of the phone. It still feels like a premium handset. Overall a an excellent purchase. Would recommend this case to all those lucky enough to own a Nexus 4.
