Silicone/Gel Skin Recommendation ? - HD2 Accessories

Hi,
Can you recommend on a decent looking silicone/gel skin for the HD2 ?
Thanks

Check the thread about cases, there are few silicon cases.
I am planing to buy this one: http://www.netimes.com/shop/resin-soft-jelly-case-for-htc-hd2-t8585-htc-leo-p-2455.html?cPath=80_731

I saw the cases thread, I thought that it would be more useable to make a new thread dedicated to silicone/gel skins.
The gel skin in your link is nice and cheap, but the black color is out of stock
How about the pdair luxury silicone case ?

I have that case coming, once it's here I will upload a couple of pics into the cases thread and give my impressions.

I'm looking for a good silicon case as well. Been looking on ebay, loads of cheap ones (£2-4) but are they any good. Also seen these, are they worth paying the extra for?

That flexishield was also mentioned in the case thread and there were some good reviews on that one.

I have that one! and I must say its the best thing for my phone EVER!!! its such High quality unlike the other silicone cases with massive gapes where the camera and speakers are! also it covers the edges of the camera but not the camera itself so when you put your phone down the phone is no longer resting on the camera arch! its resting on the silicone case so I like that about it

That's pretty cheap (although black one out of stock - grr). Can you still shove it in the leather cover that came with the phone - I know it's a bit of a tight squeeze anyway.

Check it out, they have 87 black cases on their ebay sale -

I just bought this
ebay
supposedly not as flexible as regular silicon, which is what i was looking for. some people on gave it pretty good reviews.

I have just ordered both the jelly soft case from netimes and the flexishield one. When they arrive I will post on here my opinions

Netimes say that they will restock it in a few days.

ordered the PDair luxury case around 18th Dec 09, they shipped on 29th Dec 09...and its yet to arrive,....iugghhh!!! i wish they had options for expedited shipping...

Yeah... PDair's shipping options suck!.... I am also still waiting for mine

The black color is back in stock. I ordered 2 units, they shipped it on the same day.

Hmmm .. I ordered the luxury silicone case from Pdair ... arrived within a week from HongKong to Singapore. It gives a nice grip and do make the device look more elegant compared to those cheap silicone cases.
Used to have one for for Omnia II, simply loves it. Thus, bought another one for my HD2

Can you post photos of the HD2 with the Pdair case ?
thanks

Yeah... I want to see it too

what about making fotos with this case? doesn't the flash reflex in this case and making the photos quality worse?

Best case for HD2

Hello,
just received the case for my HD2 from pdair, in fact this one:
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000801&products_id=24581
It's not my first purchase via pdair. If anyone looks for a classy case, built of fine and soft leather and manufactured on the millimeter, simply go for this case !
This is no advertisement, I neither get paid by pdair nor am I affiliated with them in any way (unfortunately...).
Already purchased the case for the Touch HD from them.
Actually the HD2 also fits in there and this is what I did until the new case came today.
I'd been a bit concerned therefore if they wouldn't offer the same case in disguise for two different device models.
Well they didn't
I have always preferred "horizontal pouch type" cases, they are most practical to wear, that's at least my experience.
Only downside was:
If you live in Europe, like I do, its quite some distance to Hong Kong and I had to wait for the good to arrive (unfortunately air cargo space over Christmas time becomes additionally scarce).
Let's hope they will have some distribution point in the EU region some time.
As far as I could see there is no retailer in Europe offering their cases.
In case someone knows one, pls post here.

I ordered the same pouch. I am using a brando black silicon skin on my hd2 and I hope that with the elastic sides of the pouch I can put my phone with the silicon skin on in the pouch. This is simply impossible with other pouches. (I've bought already 2 pouches) I will keep you informed when I receive my pouch. I think that many others will be interested in a pouch in which they can put their phone with a silicon skin on.

Oops.
I am sure this will be problematic as I said:
The pdair case is no "generic case", as offered by several manufacturers (already was "cheated" myself by such resellers, sent back these cases of course), it really fits on the millimeter.
Yes, there is a rubberized, flexible strap on each side of the case, but as the HD2 itself is very thin, these straps are as well.
So if your rubber cover (or case) is very, very thin, the HD2 might fit in the pdair case with it.
Yes, just post your findings for others.
If it won't fit in and you can't use it or pdair won't take it back (never had to return anything to them), put it on ebay and post to others they can get a cheap good case there for the HD2 ;-)
Regards
ghl10000
I had a look on the website, and the cases look very professional. I have ordered one for my new HTC HD2, which arrives tomorrow.
Cheers!

I've just ordered it, from the UK! Its from a company on Ebay for £15 with free delivery. As ghl10000, I've had some of their products before and l'm using my HD PDair case with my HD2, but decided to take the plunge once I found this on Ebay (and used my Ebay Plus Points voucher ) Had one for my N95 as well and have never been happier. Very high quality and perfect fit.

I've received today my pouch and it fits ... tight, but it fits. I've to use some force to close the pouch but I think it will fit better after some time. This is for me the first pouch which fits my hd2 with invisible shield and silicon case. I don't think a better protection is possible. I am to test it out the next days. The pouch itself is well made of soft leather. The only concern I have are the elastic sides of the pouch, but I am not to much concerned about this because I usualy buy a new phone every year. (one is already speaking of the hd3 for the end of the year?)
edit : I've removed the invissible shield on the screen because it is to soft for this pouch - it gives an 'impression' of the innerside skin of the pouch (where the magnet is). I've reinstalled an anti-glare screenprotector which gives no problems with this pouch. The invisible shield was also too reflective in the sun.
i got my alu case from pdair a few days ago (ebay 19 Eur) and have the following problem: it looks like that the elastic band which should protect the hd2 is a little bit too thick!!!
the effect is, that when i close the case, the lid pushed on the corners and a couple of contacts are executed (most in the corners) and the hd2 begins to react - looks like an animated film, but i can´t laugh!
they will ship me a new one (package was prized out with originated for htc/leo hd2)...

how good are these cases. anyone bought them? cant find reviews anywhere. they look nice but want to know the quality

Looks like this one:
http://www.netimes.com/shop/resin-soft-jelly-case-for-htc-hd2-t8585-htc-leo-p-2455.html
which I ordered and is in the mail. I'm not sure if anyone has reviewed it yet; will post when I get it.
i received mine from that company today. they sent me the wrong one. its for hd2 but different case, material & colour. fits great but i'm unhappy. it picks up dust like magnet.
hi
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350284373086&_trkparms=tab=Watching
this is hand made case
PDAIR is good Product but for me I choose Krusell rather then PDAIR.
I used PDair for my Imate 9502 and Krusell for HTC HD and now I'm looking for Krusell for my new HTC HD2
Guys -- This is my first post, I hope I'm in the right place. I was just visiting this forum to see what info might exist regarding the PDair Aluminium Metal Cases. I recently purchased one (Product Code: 1BHTH2B51) for my HTC HD2 and am extremely dissatsfied with it. I just want to add my comments in support of others who have previously also expressed dissatisfaction with this case. The problem is specifically the design of the case which permits the cover (with or without the plastic screen protector) to touch the perimeter of the telephone screen setting off various applications randomly (see attached video demonstration). The problem makes the telephone completely unusable while the cover is closed. I have emailed PDair to express my disatisfaction with the case design and their response has been evasive, to say the least. My honest advice would be to to steer well clear of the PDair Aluminium Metal Cases for the HTC HD2 until they are redesigned.

It might be helpful to anyone considering the PDair metal cases as opposed to the leather ones.
PDair Horizontal Vs Vertical
I'm swithering as to whither i should go for a vertical or horizontal PDair pouch for the HD2. I've previously had a horizontal pouch for older phones but the size of the HD2 concerns me, i'm thinking that the HD2 might sit less awkwardly if vertical. Anyone have any thoughts on the matter?

The best case would obviously be the Piel Frama iMagnum HTC HD2 case, its prolly also the most expensive one. Down side is the long delivery time, i am currently allready waiting for 2 weeks to receive mine.

I bought one of those cases from NETIMES.COM (http://bit.ly/6s1eNy) and it's quality. For less than £3 it's a steal! Quality fitting with great protection. Adds minimal bulk to the phone and is very durable. The scratch resistant screen of the HD2 takes care of itself and the case does the rest. Everyone who has an HD2 should buy this now. Top marks! 9/10.

The PDair luxury silicone case is great Does not pick up much dust at all due to the textured surface.... fits snugly without much play...
I wished someone would make a nice brushed aluminum and rubber hard back... a combination of those two materials would make for a beautiful backing/case for our HD2's

I bought this case here in the states, 4 day shipping. I really didn't want to spend this much for case, but wanted to protect hd2. This is best case I've ever seen, great fit, & protection, corners are real well protected. Very happy I decided to get it.
Awesome!!
I went for a rubberized one also by them instead.
never used a rubberized one before, this time i really wanna give it a try.
+1 for the Piel Frama iMagnum. I got a plain black one and it is by far the best case I have ever had, my friend (who also has the HD2) called me mad for paying so much for a case, but when he saw it, he promptly went out and ordered a custom model with his name on etc. The iMagnum range is beautifully made, perfectly designed and offers complete all round protection for the HD2, if you have don't mind paying that bit extra, I would strongly recommend it.

Best / Thinnest Cases for the HD2?

I know there are several threads about cases for the HD2 here, but a few are about leather cases (which I do not want to use)...there some about the silicone/ gel cases which I would like to use, and theres the invisible skin type which I would like to know more about. I do not know if the Invisible Skin/Armor ..w/e you want to call it -they seem the same to me... are tough enough to truly protect the phone from a fall ?
I also would like to know if there are any silicone/gel cases which are thinner than usual but still provide adequate protection...
One good example I can think of is this one case I saw on an iphone -it was a clear hard case, but it was very thin which made me really like it...

Better go cheapo-if i'd get a nice looking case, i wouldn't want THAT to get scrathed up either!
I ordered the capdase protector, seems to be really nice. the invisible shield and stuff like that offer no drop protection i hope mine will offer some.
Hmm... the barely there case not available yet for Tmo US HD2
I bought my "barely there" case direct from HK. Problem is, if you have multiple batteries like I do, you tend to scratch your phone when removing/replacing the case to get to the battery cover.
This led me to use the clear/invisible armor/shield, but I've had to remove the section that covers the antenna because it seems to cause rapid battery drain - see my post at thread 652013.

and i find it's great.
is it much different than the one shipped with the hd2?
Tried quite a few cases but my fav so far is this one:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390149733765&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Also known as flexishield case. It's like a soft plastic / gel case so glides in and out of your pockets easily and doesn't stick/attract lint like some silicone cases. It offers good protection but only adds about 1mm thickness to your phone.
I recommend black/gray but the choice is yours.
I actually ordered one like that...
but I find it hard to believe that it only adds 1mm thickness, 1mm is like a screen protector thickness almost....idk maybe I am wrong?
Okay maybe two then
But certainly doesn't add much at all. A screen protector is micron thin. I don't think it adds 1mm...
There are also variations in the gel type cases. Some are actually thicker. My friend bought a similar one but was quite a bit thicker. It had like a checked pattern on the back.

US TMobile HD2 Case Thread

Please post which cases are confirmed to fit the US T-Mobile version of the HD2.
I'm currently using the black gel case that came with it, but it makes me worry, as it comes off easily and does not cover the camera at all! I fitted 2 tiny pieces of duct tape around the camera to protect it - there has to be a better solution

The OEM European leather slip case fits the US Tmo version perfectly. Very thin and doesn't add much bulk to the phone at all. I really like it. Though I'm still hoping Sena comes out with an ultraslim slip for it because I like the feel of real leather.

Those Sena cases look awesome - I just emailed their customer service, hopefully one is in the works for the HD2. Other than that there's one at more-thing dot com (I can't post links yet) for the HD2 that looks pretty good as well.

Can you just confirm this fits the us tmobile version. I want to order it but wanted to verify with someone who actually has this case to see if it fits.. Thanks!

I bought mine off ebay. But I had the for thought to buy it a couple of weeks before the US release when there was very little demand for it. It was under $6 bucks shipped from China to the US and took 7 days.
Just looked it up. Here is the link to the auction.

Does your TMO HD2 fit in the case with the provided gel case installed as well? I'm thinking "no" but I would like to know for sure. Thanks!
The rubber slip on that comes with it sucks. It's loose and it collects lint like a mother... There is really nothing good onlinethat I can tell. However, T Mobile sells a few slip ons at their store.
The black one they sell is soft rubber and just as sucky as the one that came with it, but the purple case they sell that is in a clear box is rigid and strong, fits tight and awesome... The downfall is that it's purple... but it's only 14.99 so I bought it. It picks up no lint and is very rigid and fits super tight. Much like your pal's Iphone case. it will work for now, until Seidio or some other good case company puts out something else. This case doesn't protect the camera at all but it's great it every other way... (Besides being Purple) check out the pics. I put that decal on there to make it a little less feminine maybe? It won't let me post the pictures so hopefully the links work and you can cut and paste. Sorry. Says I'm a new user... put the http stuff in front of it if you want to see it.

Anybody tries this one

Nice links, will be buying a leather case w/ the red stiching soon.
I found a good case at the T-Mobile store, it just showed up. Body Glove, clear plastic, pretty attractive, with some rubber for grip + kickstand. Check your local T-Mobile store, I'm happy with it. It costs $20

This is the one I bought and I am very pleased with the quality and protection it provides. It's also inexpensive and has a metal clip, not plastic.
Good luck!

I thought magnet cases are not good for the phones with accelerator . G-sensor, GPS, etc???
I saw that one at fommy.com... My issue is that they don't show the back of the case and I want to make sure that if I buy another case, that it protects the camera lens... I'm holding out for Boxwave's honeycomb case.
Having exactly the same case on my previous phone (Nokia E71) I have found the same style just for US T-Mobile HD2 - it's not really the full case BUT it will do great job with Invisible Shield over the screen

Nexus 7 Case Advice

Hi guys,
since I got my Nexus 7 WiFi almost a month ago and still don't have a proper case, I finally decided to buy one, but I'm not sure yet which one to get, as there's quite a few different ones out there.
What I'm looking for:
- reliable sleep/wakeup functionality when opening/closing the case
- useable as a stand when in landscape mode
- should not cover up any connectors/plugs of the N7 WiFi
- material plastic or faux leather
- dark color, preferably black
- not too expensive
- should provide good protection from scratches, smaller falls etc.
Would really appreciate your advice on this one, especially if you made some good/bad experiences with (multiple) different cases.
A bonus would be if the case also was available in a european-based online shop, as I live in Germany, but its not a necessity.
Thanks in advance, looking forward to your suggestions
Tech21 make nice leather folio cases with d30 material inside, should be good for a fall;
http://shop.tech21.uk.com/store/Pro...02W_Google-Nexus-7-Leather-Case--Impact-Folio
No sleep function but it has a pocket on the lid where you could stick a magnet inside to create the sleep function, I've stickytaped one in and it works great.
Thanks for the suggestion, but that one is a bit out of my price range.
I also don't need neither real leather nor a super hi-tech drop/fall protection.
I'm looking for something for about 20-30 Euros, if possible.
Roocase
I have a roocase that is basically exactly what you described. But it's over $30 from what I found

Thanks, I looked it up on Amazon, but there seem to be lots of different versions of the roocase for the Nexus 7, many of them in my price range.
Which case do you have exactly, could you maybe hook me up with a link?
Like you I bought my Nexus7 around a month ago and spent a lot of time thinking about which case to get.
In the end I went with this one from Amazon and it really is as good as it looks in the pics.
Plus it's amazing value.

I'm not exactly sure, I received it as a gift and threw the packaging away long ago.
although there are various other threads on this same topic. I suggest the poetic slimline, it's what i use and seems to have all the qualities your looking for.
i bought the poetic that everyone here raves about. it looks very nice, but the problem i gave with it is the stand. after a couple of weeks it is very weak. i also bought and highly recommend the Moko Slim Case. looks great, fits perfect and the stand is much sturdier and has two viewing angles. it also has a loop on it to hold your stylus and a strap for your hand to slide into very comfortably. theres even an elastic strap that fits over the corners to keep case secured open when in use in your hand so the the cover doesnt flap around. highly recommend this product. youtube review of it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8eTdyBgbnI
and you can get it on amazon for $15.99 http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Slim-fit-Google-Android-Tablet/dp/B008FLYROG
I have the poetic slim in black and got it for 12 shipped on amazon. Like said above it's stand gets weak after awhile and isn't ideal for that. The reason I got it was to protect the screen and to not be bulky. It does that job really well.

Casemate clear fron Verizon
I have had experience with the clear Casemate case from verizon for a few days now. Its probably the worst case ive ever had. Terrible design, uses adhesive to adhere the front screen piece and easily come off with any pressure against it. Rear case holds just fine but is incredibly thick and changes the device into a boxy phone. Needless to say save your money and get a different case
Cool, thanks! Let us know how you like any of the ones you order.
I was thinking a possible case idea would be a rear TPU case that adheres with adhesive, but then has an extended flexible rubber that overlaps the screen edges. Then you could fold back the rubber when you want to swivel. Just a brainstorm, not sure how it would work in a practical use.
Just pulled the trigger on a case and protector from a Korean website (GMarket)

Just received my case from design skin I got the LG Wing Mix Two Pocket Card Case - Black/Yellow so far I like it way better than the case I got from Verizon that one was the worst case I ever got especially the front cover I think came off so easily.
Just got the Spigen case. It's a hard plastic case and it stays on using sticky pads. We'll see how long it lasts but it feels high quality and nice.

That's what I ordered today,it's the only one that's somewhat available ATM. No cases in stock at any of the carriers in my area.
Spigen quality is always top-notch, definitely no worries there & the price on it is reasonable.
If You guys get some good cases. Please leave links
? thanks!

This case came yesterday. I like the way it feels and the protection is good on the back half of the phone. It's not too slippery. I don't know that I could have expected anything more. ?
