im actually so over these generic cases that make my new edge 60 fusion look like a literal brick. the one that came in the box is just... ugh. its sticky and thick and honestly ruins the whole vibe of the phone. i tried getting this 'ultra thin' one from some random brand on amazon last week but it showed up today and its basically a tank. i just want something that feels like there is barely anything there. i spent ages picking this phone because it felt sleek and now i cant even fit it in my jeans pocket properly.
im in the UK so shipping from the US is a no-go but i have like 25 quid to spend. i commute on the tube every day so i really need to be able to use it with one hand without it slipping or feeling like im holding a piece of luggage. has anyone found a brand that actually makes a decent slim case for this specific model? im honestly about to just go caseless but i know ill drop it within five minutes if i do that... its so frustrating having a nice phone but only being able to find ugly bulky armor cases for it.
I've gone through dozens of cases over the years and most of those random Amazon ones are just junk. If you want a real slim feel that doesnt slip, get the <a href=" https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=Spigen+Liquid+Air+for+ Motorola+Edge+60+Fusion+Matte+Black&_sacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p4624852.m570.l1311&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5337998953&customid=22&toolid=10001&mkevt=1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow sponsored">Spigen Liquid Air for Motorola Edge 60 Fusion Matte Black. It's thin but has this textured back that's perfect for one-handed use on the tube. Cheap too, usually around 15 quid.
Saw this late but Ive dealt with this for years. Honestly most slim cases are a total lie and just add bulk. In my experience you want a matte finish to avoid that sticky feel you mentioned.
To add to the point above: honestly it drives me crazy how every brand slaps ultra thin on their packaging when it's clearly not. its such a scam. i feel your frustration because i spent ages looking for something for my old motorola that didnt feel like a brick. manufacturers just dont seem to care about hand feel anymore, they just want to sell you ten layers of rubber you dont need. i am really happy with how this thread is going though. weve basically summarized that you either go for the textured grip of Spigen Liquid Air or Ringke Onyx or you have to hunt for those rare PC shells. its worked well for me in the past to just ignore the military grade marketing fluff. honestly its ridiculous we have to do this much research just to get a slim phone, but im satisfied that the community is calling out the junk. no complaints about the advice here so far... it's spot on.
@Reply #2 - good point! Ringke is solid but if you want something that actually feels like the phone is naked, you gotta look at hard polycarbonate (PC) shells instead of TPU. Tbh most TPU cases add at least 1.5mm to the sides which totally ruins the Edge's ergonomics. Quick tips for your search:
