Was just asking jeez. They stated they "start" shipping the 15th so that doesn't sound like a for sure to me....
Is it just me or the more I wait the less I am certain I should stick with my order. I was always a mophie fan, I know they don't have a case out yet, but I am sure their price will be lower. Tough decisions. At least I have until the 26th to cancel my order. Thoughts?
Thank you very much! I really appreciated it!
I had actually signed up for the preorder when they first announced it, but by the time I actually recieved my link I really wasn't feeling the only color option...of course then they had to come out with the black, and I was sold, again. Haha
Yeah I know but if I'm going to spend that money its one or the other. My fear is that I will love the element case....and then be looking for a change in a month. I really like a naked phone. UGH
I'm not worried about falling out of love with it! Can't wait to get my grubby little paws on it!
Anybody with the Spigen Tr glass know how far this sticks out past the case? I'm getting the case but it seems the spigen sticks out farther and this might look weird so I might stick to just a regular screen protector.
I love the naked look of the phone also but my iphone four was literally destroyed in the 2 years I had it I want to keep this phone in better condition, I have the switch easy nude on it right now its really nice and I like the bottom pieces it comes with to close the ports when you carry it around and put it in your pocket it keeps lint out I would recommend this case if people are looking for something that is extremely minimal, nice and protects well, but I wanted an aluminum case and this one looks nice and doesn't change your signal at all.

I just put my GLAS.tr on today (my s5 will be here next week)
Someone else on here has the tr and s5 and it does stick out above the case but just a tiny bit. I won't mind it ill just have the be careful setting it screen down...
I thought the same thing but after installing the GLAS.tr today I can't go back to a non glass screen protector this thing looks and feels just simply awesome!!!! I did the install PERFECT on the first try. One tiny little piece of dust got in to the upper right of the home button but after I let it sit for a bit you can't see it!!!
Very very happy with the tr - also ordered the aluminum home buttons (also have black spectra wraps on it too) and put the black one on today and let me tell you that it is a really nice addition with the tr.

I ordered my case about a month ago and the shipping date was November 8th. I haven't gotten confirmation that the order has shipped, it simply says 'Processing'. I'm not positive that it is a future sign you guys will get yours late but I expect mine to leave out very soon as it is now already the 9th.
Shew that sucks, you are so close
thanks for the info...that's why I was asking when everyone's shipped vs the stated ship date. I didn't think the date they stated was exact since mine said they "start shipping nov 15th"How long after you received your pre order email did you actually order it? Wonder if that makes a difference.
Has anyone else with that stated ship date get a ship notification yet?
Hope you get that ship notification soon!
Yeah I've read a lot of good reviews about the Tr but I don't think I would like the fact it sticks out farther then the case so that's a predicament.

That would suck if it takes even longer, I paid them already but my ship date isn't until the 26th but I have the switch easy nude which has actually grown on me and I hate cases, I also ordered the Vapor 5 from case will, I don't feel as bad ordering the fake element case because I'm also supporting Element cases themselves so we'll see if that's actually any good.
Ill measure and take some nice close up side views of how much the screen rises above the case once I get my S5 on...
Let you know what I think..
Been thinking more about it sticking out and I still don't think it will bother me..I think it will taper nice since the edged are rounded the tr should slope nicely into the edge of the case instead of just having an edge sticking out.
Yeah I hope mine goes right out on the 15th i paid for next day shipping because last time when I ordered my vapor pro FedEx ground took 5 days to get here (maybe 4) but as long as I have been waiting I don't think I could waif another 5 days for it to get here.

Yeah, as the quote under me tells both the glass.t and tr is perfect.
I'm ordering a glass.tR right now because I had to exchange my iPhone due to rattling. It's a shame but it's 30 bucks. I'm okay. Well, for now lol. I might need to eat donuts for dinner lol.
Well - I really like the glass.t and it's not sticking out anything in the corners. If you can order the glass.tR instead I would recommen you to do so tho.
Although this isn't a case about the glass.t I can say it's the best screenprotector on the market.
Where did you order these buttons?
----------
You are probably mashed up with the others on the 15th shipping. Most probably.
Spigen has the buttons - they just came out with them about a week ago. It was 8 buck (maybe 9.99) and you get a black, silver and pink (all aluminum and way better than the jelly type that come with the GLAS.tr) they are really solid little things and feel great!!! I put the black one on and it looks freakin awesome with the GLAS.tr.
Get them for sure, they fit perfect with the tr.
I even stuck the pink one on my wife's 4s with a normal screen protector and it actually worked out cool too - it kind of sticks out above the screen but feels really cool when you press it and makes the button more responsive.

The Element website shows out of stock when trying to add to cart for all three colors?
Is there any way to order or preorder?
