Totallee’s super thin, branding-free cases now available for Pixel, S9/S9+ & other Android devices

If you are looking for a super thin case to protect your Galaxy or Pixel phone, totallee might just have the perfect case for you. They offer awesome minimalistic cases that will protect your phone from everyday bumps and scratches, without adding extra bulk. Each case is designed to highlight the phone it protects and remain as invisible as possible. The super-slim cases are branding-free and only 0.02” thin and 0.1 oz light. To put that in perspective, that is about the thickness of 5 pieces of paper and the weight of two paper clips. Don’t let the thin, lightweight nature fool you. Totallee’s thin cases are made from durable polypropylene, which is sturdy enough to protect your phone on its everyday adventures, and provide extra grip, while keeping your phone bulk-free. You can pick up one of their cases for only $25, and it comes with a 2-year warranty.

Speck offers Clear Protection for the new Galaxy S7 & S7 Edge

Site default logo image

Gold

Samsung’s latest flagship devices bundle in several new features and capabilities, and they critically cap off these additions with shiny new black, silver, and gold color schemes, so the best way to protect the new device is the award-winning transparent CandyShell Clear from Speck. Samsung has done many things to improve the reliability of the new Galaxy smartphones, including new waterproofing and dust-resistance technology, but the devices will still be prone to damage from drops, scratches, and nicks.

Speck’s new CandyShell + MightyShell cases bring best-of-breed protection to top Android Phones

speckandroid

Protecting your phone is key to preserving enough of its resale value to upgrade a year or two from now — a like-new condition phone will get you the best possible trade-in price. The smartest option: Speck’s CandyShell or MightyShell cases. “Designed for Impact” and available in all-new styles, Speck’s CandyShell cases have a perfect combination of great looks, protection, and accessory compatibility, letting you enjoy full use of your phone along with excellent protection.

We’ve checked out Speck’s latest cases series, and they’re certainly impressive. Each one-piece case is made with two bonded layers — one soft, one hard — together creating a snug fit and incredibly easy installation. But unlike competitors, the CandyShell cases have almost no bulk, keeping your phone nearly as thin it would be without a case. MightyShell adds additional ruggedized protection for better-than-military-grade shock absorbency. Below, you’ll get a look at Speck’s latest CandyShell and MightyShell versions with great prices, available to order today…
