I really love my phone and would be devistated if I broke it so I have been thinking of investing in one. But Im worried that it will be so much heavier and bulkier. Do you guys use cases or just a protective screen which I am using.
I use a screen protector, which is a must. I got a leather belt case with the phone, which is a TyTn2, so I use that most of the time, mostly because if I pocket it my pants will most probably fall off . Anyway I dont really like using cases and am very protective of my phone, its 2 and a half months old now and touch wood does'nt have ay major scratches oterh tahn a few tiny ones on the rear panel camera glass that tends to scratch easily, I;ve cut another screen protector and used it as a protector for the glass now to limit the damage.
Look in accys;

Already read that I just wanted to have a poll to see what most folks use.
Just the protective screen that came with it. That's all I use. Occasionally I will put it in that case that came in the box, but otherwise I just keep it in my pocket, and clean it with a Microfibre cloth at night.
I always use cases for expensive phones/PDA's the difference is I dont have any major OR minor scratches on my TYTN II its completely free of any scratches and i plan on keeping it that way. When it comes time to upgrade I will have a prestine TYTN II to sell and get the most possible for it.
pocket is my case
i dont use a case.. reason being i have at&t and a 1yr warranty.. if i so much as nick my phone with my keys i call and cry til they send me a new one.. and i always ALWAYS get a full kit each time so that i get a new phone + 2 new stylus! and new battery! never had a issue yet.. i have 8 stylus for this phone and 4 batterys!
I have a metal case. It doesn't make the device a lot bigger, maybe about 0,5cm or so... It's really well protected in there. They only thing i don't like about the case is that it blocks the GPS signal big time. With the case on it finds like 1 or 2 satellites. Without the case, about 6 of 7.

Me too.
I used the screen protector when I had my Charmer/ MDA Compact II, until it became too tatty.
I was going to replace it, never got around to it but never got a scratch.
When I got my Vario III, I didn't even bother with the screen protector.
No problems as yet, I haven't chucked it onto concrete like I did with its predecessor every other month, maybe that's something to do with it.
I've got a Tilt which doesn't come with a case, or headphones, or screen protector...
I'm using the case from my Qtek S100 which I'd been using for 2.5 years until the Tilt replaced it.
I just find cases bulky and impractical - unfortunately. But a case just doesn't fit my image, as I'm not a businessman. And I do believe image is important
I've just got the plastic/leatherette thing that came with the phone. I don't usually bother with cases any more. I used to, then stopped bothering shelling out the bucks for one as I never really damaged the phone more than a couple of scratches. I use this one now cos it came with the phone, otherwise it would be in my pocket.
I carry mine in my pocket without a case!
I bought one of each case from Pdair.com
Then finally made my choice : the black Alu is my prefered by far.
Krussel leather. Definitely makes it larger to carry, but worth it for the protection and is of high quality. Wear cargo shorts or use the belt clip (which admittedly feels kind of dorky). Krussel also has a ton of accessories, some of which I use - car holder, etc.
I use a leather one. Its actually made for a blackberry, but i use it because i already had it, it fit except the magnet clip didnt quite make it all the way down, and i couldn't find any others that i liked.
Seidio is the best case around. The clip is also very good too.
I have plenty of cases and use none of them.
I can't really find one that I like.
I don't want to put my phone in a case that I operate the phone in. Those invariably don't fit into my car holder and make the thing too bulky to fit into my pocket.
Of the belt cases I have looked at, only the Vaja offers what I want - a low-profile belt loop instead of a clip, but I think the design of their "Classic Horizontal" case - which the Tilt fits - is less than attractive.
BoxWave has a case for the Jesus Phone that I really covet. It has black, soft leather, a magnetic clasp and belt loops, not some giant clip which would make the rather girthy Kaiser protrude further from my belt than anything I am comfortable with in public. But, they don't make it for the Kaiser, yet.
Here's that link...it's the horizontal one...http://www.boxwave.com/products/dlpouch/apple-iphone-designio-leather-pouch_2661.htm
Thanks for all the feedback, does everyone here have insurance on your phones?
Anyone know of a holster/case like this, I don't like the big bulky leather stuff just want something small and like to clip to my belt.

This is slimmer than most other clip on holsters ... but the photographer of this ad image is stupid. Why? Well dude the Touch Pro is facing the wrong way on the clip. Seriously, how hard is it to know which way is the front and the back?

Umm, I think that is the correct way to holster the phone. It's holstered that way so that the screen will be protected from scratches and impact since it will be facing your body.

It's not a case, it's a holster, unless you're talking about a case with a holster clip. But this is a holster dude.
From what I see, the purpose of a holster is to be able to clip in on your belt so that you have fast access to the phone.

Exactly. If you wear a holster on your belt, chances are good that while walking around, getting in and out of your chair, getting into a car, etc., the holster and phone will bump into things. That's why you wouldn't want the screen facing out. Also, when you unholser it, if the phone is facing your body (as shown in the pic), it will be facing your face. Think about it. That picture is correct.

Holsters are an item of convenience and quick access. Cases are what are used to protect the screen and other parts.
BTW, with Seido and your configuration of the holster, you won't get enough convenience out of that. As of matter of fact, you're going to have to unclip the holster from the phone every time you want to use it or look at notifications.
Here are some various pictures

I believe it is more important to enhance your performance than to protect your phone. In fact I think by having a convenient device you are more likely to be happy and to be productive. Productivity = more likely to get a job promotion for example. Job promotion = better money. Better money = upgrades.
Seriously those who buy chunky cases and covers are wasting their time and money and especially their comfort. Why buy shell/cases for your phone's exterior when it makes the device uncomfortable? After all we bought a luxury device. Just try to take care of your phone like a car. I mean seriously, you don't buy armor (analogous to cases for phones) for your car right?

You're free to holster the phone screen out. If that's your preference, go ahead. Most holsters are leather pouch types so the screen is protected whichever way it's facing. But with this holster, you will damage the screen more likely than not if you use your configuration. In any event, even assuming everything you said is true, it would come down to a matter of personal preference. You ridiculed the photographer, but there is a reason for holstering the phone that way as I have already explained. Yes, holsters are partly for convenience. But that doesn't mean everyone would be willing to sacrifice all protection like you. Besides, the primary convenience factor, which is being able to easily access and take out your phone (without having to dig in your pockets) still exists with the photographer's configuration.
Besides, in at least one of your links, the phone (Blackberry) is holstered with the screen facing in to PROTECT THE SCREEN.

Returning to the holster in question (the one posted by the original poster), have you bothered to read the product description? Here it is:
Seidio's Spring Clip Holster has been refined from years of customer feedback and advances in technology. A durable spring clip holds your device securely in place, and then lifts for quick access. Both the felt liner and the face-in design protect your screen from scratches and exposure to outside elements, and Seidio's signature soft touch coating provides a better feel and added grip. This holster can be worn in any one of seven different positions, ranging between horizontal and vertical.
- Spring clip lifts for easy access and removal
- Felt liner and face-in design protect the screen
- Rotating swivel belt clip with choice of seven angles
LOL you guys are too funny...I have had seidio holster for all my phones and love it, it protect it enough (screen faced in), its light and not bulky and easy access to the phone.
I'm looking at getting an X1 but I won't if I can't get a good holster for it. So far I guess no one knows?
I hope someone knows of one and posts up. I'd grab one too. (Although it almost sounds like it's illegal for a holster to actually help protect too.)

I'm interested in ordering one, but since the price is a bit high i'd like to now more.
Picture of the HDII in the case and of the HDII next to the case would give a good impression of the total size increase.

Hi ET.
Ive had the defender case for about 4 weeks now and all I can say is ITS WORTH EVERY PENNY!..seriously
The phone is so much more rigid and feels like It can withstand a real drop! The screen film on the case has tiny pores so you can use the screen just as effectivly as you would without the case.
The rubber parts of the case are VERY thick, approx 3mm thick which protects the corners from almost any bumps and scrapes.
On the back the speaker is protected with what can only be described as a rubber membrane which allows sound to pass through as loud as it would be without the case. The camera lense is protected by the same film as on the screen.
The lightsensors on the front are still exposed so the screen powerdown in a call is not affected.
The button protectors are built into the case so there are no gaps between the buttons which prevents dust from getting between the buttons.
The downside to the case is it does add a considerable amout of bulk to the HD2. But my HD2 cost me a pretty penny and I am in NO position to even think of breaking it Also if the phone crashes and you need to pop the battery out is a bit of a pain to get open esp when your in a hurry!
Any questions just PM me or leave a post on here.
Hope this helps you.
It's not that I can't affort the defender case but I choose my case very carefully, it has to meet my demands I have alway's been using Pielframa cases wich are pretty expensive.
Could you please post pictures;
1. of the HDII next to the case
2. of the actueal screenprotector(s)
The HDII without any case is perfectly flat for smooth opperating the touchscreen, no upstanding edges, in the Defender case I notice that there seems to be an upstanding edge, does this interfear with smooth swiping over the screen (like unlocking the lockscreen)?
I've been looking on the web for a video placing the HDII in the case b ut couldn't find anything.
here are some pics of what someone else has posted http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7053061&postcount=88
I have this case and while it is a great case the raised edges oaround the screen do hinder the the swypeability somewhat, I use this case for when I am working or doing something more extreme, biking etc and for this it is excellent protection but i wouldnt use it everyday as I find it a little too restrictive for that use, I work with stone and so dust is everywhere all the time and for this it is the best for my purpose but maybe for everyday use the Commuter seems adequate, I will post some of my own pics when i get time as I can understand your questions on size etc...I would have like to have seen the same but in the end I just went for it. It even just fits with my bodyguardz protection still on which is a bonus!
In addition I would have to say what swung me from the commuter was the holster this is brilliant and a massive plus if you want to keep your phone to hand without fear of it getting crushed or broken

Kindly post close-ups as I'm interested in comparing Defender vs Commuter. I think Commuter will suffice for my application.
Ok, I bit the bullit and ordered one this afternoon, it will arrive next monday I hope. If nobody is willing to post pictures then I will!
I'll keep you guy's posted.
Ok, case arrived this morning and boy what a case! It fits perfectly and is nice to hold in in your hand. It does make the HDII feel bigger and looking at it, it does but it just looks and feels perfect, some pictures;
Some more pictures;
The protective screen is attached within the font shell, kind of a dust magnet but cleaning it first in the bathroom would work good (less dust in bathroom). The front and rear shell click in to place and then the rubber protective casing fit's like a glove.
Received mine just this morning mate! and it makes my hd2 more superior regarding the size! ahaha! it looks like it's the king of htc phones! The screen protector that is attached in the front shell is perfect, because of the dust magnet effect of it. Plus the rubber case covers it all and also the protection for hardware buttons is excellent! Worth the money and time of waiting! Sorry can't post pics now(i'm @ my office..) ahah!
It is really recommended to have one of this, specially if you want a secure $$$ phone.

What type of texture does the Otterbox Defender have? Is it a smooth/slipper texture or more rubbery/rough/tacky texture? Is the exterior texture prone to attracting dust/dirt?
What is the best way to clean the screen on the defender? WOuld it be prone to scratches or damage/tear?
IS the Defender easy to take apart if one had to remove the battery to reset or change?

rubbery/rough/tacky texture. not really a dust magnet, except for earpiece, it's not covered and become some kind of pit. search forum on how to clean the earpiece grid.
i just wash it. but i read somewhere "never wash it" because it got pores. it's plastic that look like it's prone to scratches, but apparently it's not quite. but if you carry it with your loose diamond in your pocket, i guess you can still scratch it.
took less than a minute the first few time, but you can do it blindfolded in few seconds after a while.
Everyone that's saw my phone on the defender case was amazed by it! this really is a must have case.. it is really worth it!

Post some pics ?
Video would be better
Got the Defender and (as you may have noticed in my previous scribbles) am EXTREMELY satisfied - though I just ran into my first qualm with it. I overly tightened a screw connecting the stylus cradle and created a crack in the belt holster. Completely my fault but I still think it's worth mentioning here.
Recap: don't tighten the screws connecting the pen cradle with the belt holster too much. My ratchet snapped (so hard I consider myself lucky to have been wearing eyeglasses, as a metal cog flew high velocity towards my eyes upon the occurance) and my belt holster now has a crack going through it's topside all the way through the plastic (still feels sturdy, just not as reassuringally whole) adjuscent to the respective screw placement.

Hi mate! the OP posted pics of his Defender Case. Well, it's just the same. The screen protector was attached on the front face plate. Everything was covered except for the part of the light sensors. You'll get along with removing the parts for sure! At first it would really take you a few minutes before you can remove your batt just to reset the phone.
Just got my phone back from getting the screen replaced and need to find something to put it in to keep it safe! Any Suggestions?
Original HTC Desire HD Leather Case
Hi there,
when I got my NS i went to the nearby Electronics Shop and tried the cases they had. The Original HTC Desire HD leather Case fits very well...
do you have the i9020 or i9023? Any type of case you have in mind?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I really like the cases from this thread. Picked up two of them.

The Incipio Feather Case is nice. It doesnt add much bulk, but still protects well.
Why not get a good screen protector and then run without a case. When the battery door gets to the point that its no longer attractive or you want to sell the phone buy a new battery door cover. A new battery door will cost you $7-$12 on eBay.
My Nexus has survived wars and it still looks good w/o a case. Like ^ this guy said, screen protector would suffice. I hate that extra bulk in my pocket.
I've got the trident aegis black-on-black for my NS4G (which I've had since last august) and think it's great. I had never been a "case" guy, and always kept my phones bare, but this phone was just waaaaaay too slippery. The smooth plastic back is one of the worst features of this phone and makes it really hard to hold on to if you're constantly juggling stuff in your hands and on the move. I dropped it a bunch of times in the first few days I had it before I just caved and ordered this case.
It's a two-piece case with a silicone full body case that covers the whole phone, and then a hard plastic outer shell that kind of clamps around the silicone.
The silicone part is supposed to absorb shock when you drop it, I guess. It has tabs that cover the headphone and usb ports, cutouts that are perfect for the camera and speaker, and mic, and is a bit thicker on the corners, which gives me some confidence and makes me think that they thought the design through well. I've dropped it a bunch, and watched my 1.5yr old son throw it to the ground, and no probs.
The plastic part wraps around that and is supposed to be good at reducing risk of damage during "crushing" impact. All I can say is that I actually shut my car's trunk on this phone accidentally and it was absolutely fine. It gives it gives it a sleeker feel and minimizes the "ruberry-ness", too.
It also comes with a clear screen protector that is fine, and I don't even notice. Since the screen is curved most people complain about the fact that screen protectors don't stick well on the edges, which is true, but the lip of the silicone case on the front covers this area, so you don't even notice it. I also don't notice a difference when using the touchscreen.
The silicone part does collect lint, so if you're OCD about that, it'll be annoying, but the protection makes it totally worth it for me. I'll gladly pay $30 for a rock solid case that collects a little lint rather than get insurance at $7.99 x 24 months = $192 over the contract. The one thing that's important to know if you use multiple batteries like I do, is that you have to put the silicon section into the hard plastic section first, pop all the buttons out of their holes on the hard plastic case, and then push the phone into the case. If you try to put the rubber part on the phone first, and then put the hard plastic on, the fit is so tight, it's tough to get the buttons to pop out. It was pretty frustrating before I figured this out, but now it only takes me a few seconds to do a battery swap. Finally, the case does add some bulk to the phone, but I personally don't think it's all that bad. The phone feels more solid in my hand and is much less slippery.
I've been meaning to write a review for this phone in the proper thread, but I don't like to review stuff unless I've really used it. So I pretty much forgot till I saw this post. Maybe I'll go link to this post in that thread too, but if you want pics, I remember seeing them in that thread, and in threads over on androidcentral or androidforums or something. Good luck with the case search.
I grabbed the Ballistic case for my Nexus. It's pretty rugged, stays on very well, and comes off easily when you want it too. Feels very solid in your hands.

Hi,
has anyone tried the Samsung Clear case for the Edge? It's the bumper case style case from Samsung. Not the clear view.
http://www.samsung.com/global/galax...es/accessories_galaxy-s6-edge_clear-cover.jpg
I really like the design but i am wondering how much it protects the phone? Is it good enough? Will your phone be safe if you drop it?
I tried, I don't advice to get one because of its price and it doesn't protect nothing if the phone falls only if hit the corners other then that the phone is naked. It's only good to protect the camera if you put on top of the table, and the other thing is because our phone is glass when you put this case you will have bubbles beneath, between the back of the phone and the case. Not well made this. It's beautiful other then that isn't good.
Have it, love it, never drop tested it.
But I have bumped it a few times on the corners (and back) and no scratch or damage at all.
Unlike the guy above that doesn't use it, mine does not have bubbles between the back glass and the case.

You cant actually say that case is protective because its not, let me show you mine so everybody can see that im not lying.
and you can see the difference from another one i have Ringke Slim that has no bubbles.
Its not my first phone or my first case you know
I Don´t Recomend It
I have it, looks awesome, and I never had the feeling of normal cases where I want to take them off all the time, but I dropped it from 30cm and the thing looks awful and has like a kind of crack on the corner, so if I get to drop it at normal height (around 1m) I´m not sure if it will protect anything.
I recomend the spigen Neo Hybrid it's the best match for the s6 edge but here in Mexico they only sell the clear case.
I have one & have been using it ever since I've had my S6E since launch day. I love it b/c it allows me to place the phone on its front or back without touching the phone on the surface, it's very light, shows off the looks of the phone, and makes the phone look cool. I had 2 aluminum bumper cases & one hard clear TPU case but I sold them b/c I like the Samsung clear view case much better.
I'm planning to purchase a Ringke Fusion smoke clear TPU case, however. Not as a replacement but as an addition.

Blame it on user (marco) error. Mine has zero bubbles. Perfect and easy.
I think i might get one. So far its the only one i saw that doesnt make the phone look ugly.
Don't. It scratches so easily when I was not even using it.
Here is the story: Got it free when I bought the edge on launch date. Used it a bit but I'm one of those guys who likes the phone naked. Kept it on a place where it won't get moved or touched. Some days I carry it around without the phone just in case. After a few weeks and I try to put it back on, so many scratches that it's so dirty looking. I didn't even freaking use it. >.>
im strugling to find a good case that protects well enough but doesnt look like crap.
I don't like it
I got this case for free with the pre-order for my phone.
Having used it as well as a Spigen Ultra Hybrid case and a UAG case, the bottom line is that it provides the least protection, but shows off the look of the phone the best. It is absolutely useless if you are the type to drop your phone often, or like to throw it around. I would very much recommend the UAG case for that. However, it excels at preserving the look of the phone, and is, in my opinion, the best case for the phone if you just want something to cover the rear and prevent scratches when placing it on a surface, and preventing scratches from minor bumps to the corners of the phone.
It should be noted that being a first party product, it is quite expensive. Overall, I would give it 10/10 for looks, 2/10 for protection, and 6/10 for value (I would give it a lower score for value since it offers so little protection or features, but so far its the only case I found which actually manages to keep the phone looking as good as it does naked).
I'm using one, got it free with a wireless charger. Loving it, feels invisible and removes that slippery feeling the back of the phone has.

How can I be blame? I'm simply giving my opinion and a lot of users agree that's is to expensive for the quality, I use a ton of cases and never got any problems with them, other then bubbles this one gets dirty and fingerprints all over in a few hours. But maybe it's only mine that's a fingerprint magnet [emoji4] [emoji6]
So what is the purpose of this case? Everyone seems to say it wont protect your phone from a fall but i thought that was the whole purpose. From what i see in the images, the case raises above the phone's level so the case should hit the ground before the phone for every side unless the ground is very uneven. Just like the first bumper case for the Iphone, it seemed to only protect the sides but the fact that it added a couple of mm between the phone and the ground really made it work. I dropped my iphone a bunch of times and it never actually touched the screen or back.
Can anyone confirmmy theory or did Samsung just fail with this case?
My gf wanted the Kate Spade case for her S6 Edge. While it does look like very good protection, the fact that the buttons become difficult to press seems like a deal breaker
I have it and I did not use for even a single day. Because its very slippery in the hand and does not protect the sides of the phone. But I agree that it looks beautiful but would definitely not recommend it at all.
I've had it for a month until I got my hands on incipio. This case is much better. With the clear case it scratches very easily.
