Minimalistic, super-thin case?

I got my case-mate Clear Armor screen/device protector yesterday (fit quite well by the way), and it came with a nice, soft, and thin cleaning cloth. And I realized - I want a case/pocket for my HD2 made of this or similar material. Will not increase thickness, will protect the device, which means perfect for carrying it in my jeans' pocket. It will also clean the device actually, and you could probably even take calls without removing it

at time 00:13. Mine is actually in silver color, very nice one.
Any ideas?
EDIT: I was so excited, I send an email to their support with the idea

Something like this?

It's nice because it doesn't add bulk and it protects against scratches, but it doesn't really help against drops and what not? I can live with a few mm of rubber to help soften the blow.

i just bought this hopefully turns out nice doesnt scratch on the inside or i might have to get one of those invisible shields

This thing looks quite good....Can you post some pics and review the quality of the case?

The case-mate I bought was exactly like this one. However, I'm talking about a simple case/pocket made of thin fabric. Haven't seen anything like that. Maybe I should claim a patent

Yeah, this one looks nice, but again doesn't protect the whole device and adds to the size. The invisible shield is better IMO.

Anyway, I'd also like to hear/see/read about the quality of this one

Good value leather-effect case (UK)

Got one of these recently and it's really nice for the price. Fits well and seems well made. Magnetic clasp and cutouts for the cameras etc. Currently £13.95 at mobilefun.co.uk.

I nearly bought one of these myself Paul but instead went for the Samsung Executive Case....... and I'm not happy with it.
Like the case you kindly mention I don't like the leather surrounding the glass surface. Much prefer the case where you 'click' the Tab into place rather than slide it in.
Any idea's which would be a good case?

I've only used the one above and (for a short while) the official Samsung case. Not the executive one though. It was the sleeve variant. I really didn't like it. Very hard to get the device in and out of as it was so tight. I'm happy with the one I got, though may try a TPU style cover at some point.

Yes I have the same issue with the Samsung Executive case, it's a right pain inserting and taking out of the case.

That looks very like the red one I recently got
http://www.londonmagicstore.co.uk/L...llet+Leather+Case+for+Samsung+Galaxy+Tab.html
Good case, but it does have tendency to let the tab slip out of the top if held upside down (while taking out of a bag, for example)

Hi Jon (hey we're neighbours ). That does look very like mine, apart from the colour. I've not had the problem with it slipping, it's a snug fit. Unlike the official case, which was a strangulated fit .

I see we also share the same taste in where you purchased it too.
I obtained my Samsung Executive case from LondonMagicStore.
Excellent service from them, have purchased quite a few items in the past and have their Black Gel Case Cover Stand on order as well.

fishbone case??

has anyone tried this case there is no reviews on amazon for it so i figured id ask here decent price looked pretty sick anyone has experience from these phone cases almost got one for me evo a while back but never got it

Did you ever order the case? I was also looking into getting one but I like the way this one looks. It looks like an actual fishbone.

no i didn't cause no one freaking responded 200+ view not one response ended up getting a cruzerlite... off amazon and its amazing feels very light but not cheap but the price is great!!! i never really like tpu cases but this one definently got my business thinking about buy a second case different color..

I did see on another forum that someone bought one and he stated that the corners would slip out and he didn't recommend it. But it just looks so cool. I have had an Otterbox Commuter Series on my Sammy Charge and I love it but I thought I would try something different. I will look into the cruzerlite, thanks for the suggestion.

yeah the fishbone was poorly rated when i was looking at it too and the phone is bulky enough as it is and this case doesn't add much bulk at all too it..

I drop my phone alot. And my 3 year old doesn't help matters either, chucking it all over the place so I don't mind the added bulk of the Otterbox Commuter.

I just ordered one from Amazon so I will let you guys know how it is once I get it but I had one a while back for my Fascinate and loved it actually so I'll see how this does with my Bionic.

Had one on a fascinate. It provides basic protection, but not nearly to the level of an otterbox or aegis. Think of it as one step above a silicone case. I had no problems with the corners sliding off.

You guys should check this **** out : http://www.amazon.com/Trident-AG-BIO-RD-Series-Motorola-Bionic/dp/B0060EKDWK/ref=pd_cp_cps_2

I am a big fan of my CaseMate Tough case for Bionic. It is a 2 layer case with soft-silicone inside and hard plastic removable outside layer. It's nice since I can dock in the car and moto desk dock with the soft case and pop on the hard outer case when I am on the go. Last week I think Amazon had the Tough for around $7 w/ free shipping. The fishbone looks like it would be a pain to remove the outer layer, if anyone can comment I'd like to know how easy it is to remove/replace the hard layer.

My New "Custom" Note 2 Case :)

I had been looking around for a while.....tried a couple of different cases. And then i saw a couple of pieces that caught my eye. And i then thought to myself...."What if i combined them?" So i did just that! Had always liked the idea of a two toned phone. Here are links to the 2 items on Ebay...

Just thought i would share this bit of randomness......i really like it! And the bumper case does not affect signal quality at all. :good:

Looks nice, I'm still considering a back plate like that. Let me know when you get a phone as cute as you pls. Then I will really be interested

I just ordered one of those carbon battery covers too, waiting for it to arrive
do you know if you can transfer the NFC from your old back onto this one?

This is what was holding me back!

lulz....silly Adam

the back cover is nice

does it leave in residue on the back cover?

Does the bumper not fit flush with the screen? In the first pic it looks to be raised a tad.

Nice mode. I am thinking to cut a TPU case into a bumper case to protect the side, and use it with the official flip case.

Juppa case

This one seems to offer good protection, a hard shell inside a book style casing. No mention of a magnet.

"5.0 out of 5 stars Fits well and good value 28 Dec 2012
By Brent46
Colour Name:Black|Amazon Verified Purchase
Arrived early an looked very nice. Applied screen proector (always difficult on big Screens) one of the better protectors I have used, Fitted Nexus very well and all charging an buttons accesible. Turns device on an off as you open and close. Very happy with for £5 I paid"

Bit annoying that he only paid £5 for it when they're now £12 but even at that it's not a bad price.

It just seems like another of a million already available cases. All these dealextreme/ebay cases all look the same to me, and a case is a case, they're all plastic, and they will prevent scratching the screen, that's about it.

I've fallen for this one

Nillkin case
Not the cheapest, but it seems a good finish, tight and clean all around

Does this mean you already have that case? If so, what do you think of the pleather quality wise?

I posted the original link because I saw a case that took two properties of common cases that are not found together anywhere else, the book style cover enclosing the hard plastic shell. It's too bulky for my use but that doesn't mean it's not going to appeal to someone else, it deserved a link for that reason.
