Just purchased one to replace the defender. The defender is a nice case, it just makes the phone too big for comfortable pocket carry and I have never trusted the holster. In fact, the only time I've dropped my phone has been when it fell out of the holster.

The belt clip for the Defender makes a nice car mount for the Commuter.

Where did it ship from. Trying to figure out if mine will come tomorrow or not as it hasn't been picked up yet by UPS.

I have got the Car mount from Dell Which I like very much except in hot weather the tape comes unstuck but a small screw took care of that & for my Goldwing motorcycle I have a Ram mount But as I found out just a few minutes ago, it doesn't seem to be available anymore. It mounts to my clutch housing and holds the Streak fast. I will be adding a tether "just in case".
It shipped from Miami via UPS. It was regular UPS Ground (7-day shipping), but I live in Florida so I got it next day.

Thanks! Mine was picked up from Lawnside NJ by UPS today evening. Looks like I am getting tomorrow after all as per UPS tracking.
Got mine today. I used a TPU case for a long time. The commuter case is great.

I was looking for a rubber case/skin for my streak to help it survive any drops and I came across this one. I got the case from Dell and it just seems like it will transfer the energy from the drop right to the streak. The site says they aren't shipping till September, so maybe some other companies will step up, but if not I'll be getting this one. Anyone else found any rubber/gel cases?
I also think I'm going to get the Zagg Invisible Shield, so I can protect the plastic parts of the phone and not just the screen.

It looks ok thanks for the links
Case-mate is also saying they will have a case in early sept.

They just change the stock picture of the Amzer for the Dell streak. It look alot better now.

So this looks pretty good! And the price is not excessive. I wonder ...
Meh, for the same price I cancelled my jelly case preorder and went with the Otterbox.

I was going to do that, but my AMZER is in the mail, so i'll at least give it a shot. I see the Otterbox isn't shipping until the 19th I think, so I'll wait for reviews on it while i have the other one in the meantime.

Amazon was out of stock although cheaper, so I ordered from Amzer since it was in stock and they shipped it yesterday. I'll post pics when I get it...
*** I just ordered an Otterbox case as well, so I will compare and roll with my personal favorite.
Got mine in the mail today. It's not bad, pretty protective, but it does make the Streak a little bulkier. The case is a little more durable than I thought it would be, but that's a good thing.
More pics. Forgot to mention that the volume rocker, power, and camera buttons are covered. They still work pretty well though, no need to press harder or anything.
Also, the case isn't in the way of the haptic buttons or the earpiece.

Does it collect dust and how does it slip in and out of your pocket?
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
Hi there
I just bought one from ebay for 8 quid and it came with rapid delivery. The case is great as you can stop treating the dell like a baby and as a phone. Dust problems are minimal in my limited use. However, I have noticed that the case comes a little to forward onto the screen and can affect your ability to open the phone with the slide to open option, as mutli touch is interferes with its general use.
Other than that an absolutely must buy piece of kit for a phone that is sooooo scratch sensitive.
I get my case today. I will post reviews after I get it.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
I have been using the case and its definitly a nice case. It still collects dust but not as bad as other cases. It adds some weight and thickness to the phone but its still pocketable. I recommend this case for anyone with a dell streak.

If you really want it you can always use www.shipito.com (I have used them many times for restricted items) or a similar service. They charge USD 8.- per shipment and their shipping rates are very reasonable.
It's not even available on the Otterbox site yet, hopefully once they ramp up production Amazon UK will carry it.
Here is the official Otterbox page with better pictures...

I assume they'll ship to the UK.
Looks like it's going to be a good case for us over-protective Streakers!

Just checked on that case, one website said it's due out 13th September so it should be out soon. Although being 100% silicone I wouldn't want it to stick to my pockets and pick up dirt....
given the choice I think I'd rather get the otterbox one, the amzer looks more like it would stop minor cosmetic damage such as scratches rather than a knock.
Hi all,
This looks great i bought the Case-Mate Tough Case for my Galaxy S and this looks very similar to it so i have now registered for an alert when it becomes available and think I'll get one as so far its one of the nicest and most practical looking cases I've seen for our Streaks as am currently using one of those Neoprene pouches off of E-Bay as a temporary solution..

That is because estimated shipping times are 1 - 2 weeks.
I ordered one last night.
I emailed them earlier to see when they become available to order from their site and if it will be available in the UK. Will post here if I get a response.
Which is considered to be the slimmest and best looking case? Defender,Impact or commuter from Otterbox? I think I am going to stick with the Amzer case it looks better to me. Here goes an updated photo on how the case looks. If you go through Amazon you can get it for 14.97.

Silicon cases popping up on EBAY
Search Dell Streak Cases and you will see the Amzer cases for sale. The funny thing is that there are two sellers listing the silicon cases one for 6.97 with free shipping and the other for 24.95. Maybe this is Amzers supplier on the Dell Streak cases.

Having looked at the Amzer case and the Otterbox one I think I'm going to get the Otterbox as it looks more capable of transfering shock away from the device.
The other Otterbox cases as posted by barry99705 will be interesting too. I'm going to wait and see what they look like when the pics go up.
Has anyone bought an Amzer case from Amazon? Gel or TPU? Any good?

I ordered a black silicone case as well as their screen protector to try out for the hell of it. They are out of stock so there will probably be a small wait till it arrives.
yeah ordered one of their screen protectors. i dont need a case if i have a ZAGG on the back
The cases aren't out yet. They are up for pre order. If you go to Amzer's website you will see that they don't ship until 1/5. That is how it has been since the phone came out cause that is when I checked for it so it is not out yet.

I was gonna wait for a different case, but i already dropped my phone on the pavement and gave the corner a nice little ding I settled for this case..
Amazon seems to be out of stock. However, one of the other sellers had the case in stock so I ordered through them on Amazon. Fast shipping, too - just got a e-mail the order has been shipped.
please mind your language...
The AMZER silicone cases look nice. I have disliked the Best Buy case since the day I bought it, but any case (well, almost any case) is better than no case. Anyway, Amazon registered the AMZER ones as in stock today, so I ordered one. Optimistically waiting.

I also have Prime (have since it was made available) so I just placed an order for two (one white and one black) and chose 3.99/item one day shipping and should be getting them tomorrow.
Side Note:
I highly recommend Amazon Prime to anyone who uses Amazon frequently. It's only 79.99/year and you can invite up to 4 household members (though I'm sure you can add a friend) to share the membership. The first time I realized how great it was, was when I ordered an industrial strength shredder as a christmas present and because of the bulk the shipping would have been outrageous, so instead I opted for the 3.99/item overnight shipping.
Ill give you a little review of what I think of it.
Quality is good as in any otterbox product ive come across. Fit and finish is top notch and fits on the device nice and snug. It comes with 2 parts and a screen protector.
I have not put the screen protector on yet since I have the one from tmobile. (which is **** btw) The only downside of the case I see is that it does not fit in the docking station. May have too do some surgery to get it too work.
I say get one its a great case and the back is hard plastic. I have not tested the durability yet and hope I dont have too.

I love my Otterbox for the Streak 7, but would love to find a nook type cover (closing/opening) like a book that fit the Streak WITH the otterbox on.
I love the Otterbox, really sucks that it doesn't fit in the dock with it.
Let me know if you cut anything on yours to make it fit.
I have been pleased with the Otterbox. I think the only complaint I have is that it took several tries to get the case on straight over the silicone. OCD. Had to get all the edges right. & it would be better with an sd card cutout. Debating about getting the dock, since I really haven't started consuming media with the S7 yet. So don't know how valuable a dock cutout would be (for me).

Not that I was expecting it to, but the Leather case at T-Mobile doesn't work WITH the Otterbox on the Streak. Furthermore the biggest problem the leather case, other than the shoddy quality is that it doesn't have a port for the charging cable.
I just got the commuter today and I really like it. It seems to protect the tablet pretty well.

I ordered mine through dell for $49.95(have a dell preferred account) and I think you are right! a few days ago I checked otterbox's website and saw it for 39.. I figured dell just marked it up by 10 bucks, but it seems like otterbox rasied the price
Mine was $39 a couple of weeks ago when I bought it of the Otterbox site.

I will throw this out there for anyone interested in a otterbox defender, I ordered a defender case for my photon and it mistakenly came in a Droid bionic defender box. More than likely Bionic is getting a defender.

There will indeed be one. I work @ a VZW corporate store, and we got a Defender series for launch.
It's actually rather interesting. It's the first Defender that I can recall with a smooth silicon outer covering, as opposed to the textured feel on the X, X2 & iPhone 4.
It's nice, but seems like it might be a little harder to grip in/out of pockets...I guess time will tell
Will there be any blue colored cases available at launch? Or am I stuck with hitting up eBay and the like for one?
It would be nice if they would make one for the extended life batteries. I haven't seen one yet that they have.
I picked one up at VZW for 37 and some change last night. Amazon does not have them yet but otterbox even has them on there site for 49.99. But your best bet would be to go to the VZW store and see what kind of deal they can work out. I think i got like 35% off the 49.99.
Hopefully it's better than the defender for the Atrix. Not impressed with it at all! The silicone cover is really loose, which causes it to snag on things and try to pull off. I emailed them about it and got a replacement, but it's just as loose. I have a Ballistic HC case in the mail right now. Hopefully it's better than the otterbox.
Otterbox had a Defender and a Commuter available at launch. Only the Defender was available from Verizon yesterday. I'd love to get a commuter, but I don't want to have to pop the cover every night to dock the phone.
Confirmed.
See if you can get a deal if you get one in-store, a lot of places will give you a % off.
I have it and I HATE it...added TONS of bulk to the phone and can't use with the extended battery

Otterbox hates extended batteries.
And why is the commuter series never with a holster? That's the one I want cause it's thinner and the plastic makes it easier to slip in/out of the pocket but I need a holster for work. Sigh.....
Did you folks who got a discount buy it with your phone? I went to three stores trying to buy the case only, and no one would offer a discount unless I bought a phone, too.
I bought mine from the store and did not buy a phone.
For those complaining about the bulk and size of the defender are missing the point. The case is to the the best protection money can buy. I feel it is.
My 1 tiny, small problem with the defender is the charging port opens to the wrong side. Hdmi (used less) is easy to plug in while mini usb (used much more) is more difficult to plug in.

See, I like more bulk/weight to my phone... Are you happy with it? Is the holster easy to use? Also, my friend had one for the Atrix, and he said it slid up and down because it wasn't a tight fit. Any truth to this? Thanks
i honestly don't use the holster, but clicking it in and out just testing it, there's zero play.
i love the case and would recommend it to anyone.
Gotcha. Glad to hear if I'm going to be dropping $49.99 on a case for my phone...
I purchased the Defender Series on day one at my local VZW store but after having it for almost a week I can easily say it is way too bukly for my liking. The rubber outsole is also a major pain for me for two main reasons. The first is that it likes to stick to my pockets making it hard to take out or put back in, and second all the fuzzies and lint in my pocket stick to it. Also never used the holster.
I ordered the Commuter Series and hopefully it will be here by the end of the week so that I can return my Defender case.
Just picked up my Bionic and Defender case from Best buy about an hour ago.
I went in there yesterday looking at it since its $249 and no tax here. They didnt have anything in stock as far as accessories went. I told them I would think about it since Costco had a pretty good deal on it as well. Well I decided i liked the sound of the Buy Back Program they offered so I went for it. They were trying everything yesterday to make up for such a great deal at Costco.
I went back in today and low and behold they just unboxed 3 Defender cases. I told them I wanted to keep the price under $300 for everything so the assistant manager came out and told me he would do the Phone for $200 and then sell me the black tie with buy back and also the defender for $289. I couldnt pass up paying $289 out the door for this setup so I took it. I am more than happy with my purchase today.
I ended up getting my case at VZW store with a nice little discount from a friend. Its a perfect fit with the belt clip no play at all. Solid feel similar to the xoom case. Although its bulkier than most cases you know your phone will survive almost anything.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
What do you mean "play"?
Also, to the person complaining about the outter case attracting lint, that's why you keep it in the holster and one of the reasons I'm moving towards it. The lint is already creeping in my phone so I want to keep it out.
