3 colourful Nexus 5 covers for you

While I was in the office this week I took the chance to check out some of the best Nexus 5 covers we have available. Each one is available in multiple colours, no matter which is your favourite you’re sure to find one in a colourway that matches your style. Read on for my first-hand impressions!

Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit Cases

First, I had a look at the Cruzerlite Bugdroid cases, which are adorably adorned with the face of the robotic Andy the Android mascot and backed with some circuitry. These cases feel a bit plasticky in the hand, adding grip as well as providing a lip around the delicate screen. The Nexus logo is still partly visible, an effect I liked better in the green variety than the clear. I was using a white Nexus 5, so your mileage may vary. Either way, a nice case for Android enthusiasts.

ArmourDillo Hybrid Protective Case

So this case for the Nexus 5 was one of the most protective I looked at, with the phone covered in a tough, impact-resistant polycarbonate exoskeleton. The armadillo-inspired back plating adds both protection and character to the case, giving it a unique look. The case also useful includes a flip-out stand, allowing easy movie watching and game playing.

FlexiShield Case

The FlexiShield is one of our oldest and most respected cases, offering a good mix of protection, flexibility and low cost. I tried out the pink and green versions, with the pink proving a particular favourite with the white Nexus 5. I like that you can still easily read the Nexus logo through the case, and there’s even a cutout for the LG symbol. The green one was nice too, and probably would go well with the black Nexus 5 as well.

Conclusion

So those are my impressions. If you’re looking for a thin case I’d go with the FlexiShield, if you’re an Android fan get the Cruzerlite, and if you want protection and functionality the ArmourDillo is worth a look. Thanks for checking out the article and have a good one!
