Hey guys,
I'm looking for case options. I'm currently wearing a Case-mate Tough on my Galaxy Nexus, and look for a similar amount of protection. It lifts off the screen from the ground by about 2mm, which has saved my phone plenty of times.

Basically it's some serious amount of silicone (especially around the screen! That's really important to me, that the screen is raised off the ground) held in place by some hard plastic. Or something like the Otterbox Commuter. Strictly no flip cover. If it's less slippery that's good. Glossy TPU is rather nice for example. Good looks are a plus, i.e. showing off the design of the phone. I like the tech21 iPhone cases, basically (IIRC) TPU around the edge (bumper style) with an additional layer of shock absorbing material around the edge of the phone, giving it great protection without adding much bulk elsewhere. Sadly I haven't seen such a thing for the Mi3...
Any ideas? So far I have found the Rock Shield Series TPU case, but I can't find it on their homepage.

It does look like it offers reasonable protection. The sharp edges are a put off though, I've tried a similar case in a shop and it felt unpleasant. Also, more protection of the back than of the front? I'd rather have the thickness where it matters...
There's also this:

TPU is quite decent, but often a bit thin for me. This seems to be rather thick though...?

This looks... interesting. No clue about the materials used...

Nice amounts of protection.

Cocose Honeycomb. Another one that looks good. Nice design it seems. Doesn't lift off the screen all that much (not sure how those other TPU cases do...). Seems to be less than 1mm

Saw it in a shop. Not comfortable edges, tries to look like an iPhone
Also, what is the point of screen protectors? Glass or not? Cause shouldn't it be gorilla glass, so it shouldn't get scratches? I'm just worried about breaking the screen...
the best i think
and im using it
