I myself just picked it up from eBay in black. I did some test to see durable it is and it is a pretty damn good case. The case took a fall from ten feet and still kept my phone intact so I'm gunna have to give it props.

You sir...are daring (assuming the ten foot drop was one if your tests and nit an accident)

Haha it was a test. I have a backup phone (captivate, yuck I know) but I was just testing how durable the case was. Whipped it at the ground a couple times and have to say that this case, as bulky as it is, is definitely worth the money

I am sick of my otterbox commuter. It's done a great job protecting the phone but it's ugly and the front portion sticks out to far and is too close the screen causing difficulty hitting keys on my keyboard holding it in portrait. This case comes in colors so it could definitely looks more stylish. Is it easier to access the whole touch screen?
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
You actually don't feel like the case is covering anything in the front. Atleast that's what I feel lol. It takes up such a small amount of room you probably won't notice it too much. Deff recommend the case!
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda app-developers app
I actually did try this case out, along with an Incipio case, otterbox defender, and another which name escapes me atm, but I felt this one was too bulky for my pocket and the rubber was very sticky attracting lots of fibers and lint. I went with the Incipio silicrylic case and I think I'm better off now than with the otterbox.

Yeah if its a new phone, they usually have no problem exchanging it out and making you happy.... they don't want a refund

ah, there is definitely a wear problem there. looks like the sliding mecahnism is scratching the paint. that's too bad, i really like this phone. my guess is a replacement will do the same thing. maybe some protective tape around the bezel will fix the issue.
I have had mine for a little over a week, use the keyboard for everything and dont have this issue.
I can see a spot where the screen slides its a little darker than the rest but does not seem to be removing the paint or anything like that.

i ran my fingernail over the area and it's definitely scratched. the question is the durability of the paint. i've only had my phone since Friday evening of last week and i'm already noticign the wear.
I haven't had any scratching when I slide it up

wow! mine is definitely not that bad. yet.
I'm using the snap on case for the holster, and I know when I slide it out, I can feel some dragging.
With it off though, smooth as silk.
I never put a case on my phone. Why take away the beauty of it. I have insurance and warranty if something goes wrong or breaks.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA Premium App
Yeah I'm having the same issue. I've had it for about a month now, and a while ago I would hear a scraping when the phone opens. I noticed there are two clips underneath the screen that probably help the phone STAY closed/open. This is where the scraping is for me. Mine is pretty bad at this point, now have silver lines about half a cm thick on the back of my screen. Pretty sad. I know the OG Droid had this issue after alot of wear and time, but this is early. :'(
Do you carry the phone in your back pocket? looks like compression scratches.
No. Only had that current phone for two days before i noticed it.

Full review coming tomorrow. just checked my mailbox and it was delivered today. Definitely adds some bulk. The grip is slippery other than that i really like this case but I may return it due to it being too slippery. Definitely feels like it adds a nice level of protection.

That slippery feeling is the rubber expelling or 'sweating' out the oil used in the manufacturing process to create it. It will eventually all dissappear. I would suggest soaking it in a tub of warm soapy water to try and remove the feeling.

I'm deciding between xda/cruzerlite and seidio surface/best buy premium
Xda is xda and only $10 and looks nice
Surface seems more durable and comes with holster that I might or might not use
This is my 1st phone that isn't a flip so I don't know if I will use it because I don't like that it takes up a whole pocket but the phone might weigh down my pants.

I bought the surface and love it!!! Only thing is that it ripped off my skinomi screen protector so I'm in search for a screen protector that works with this case... It does seem to collect dust around the edges of the the screen but not too bad and doesn't bother me... Over I think it's perfect

Could you get a screen protector to work with the surface? A wet one I just ordered a just like glass one and the owner says it will be fine

I tried to resist the surface case for a while, cos I live in Europe and it's expensive with shipping, but, I couldn't hold my self off anymore! went on and ordered it(for a total of 40 $) , might get it next week.
Reviews, videos and ppl on xda have nothing but praising that case, though I've never seen it but I guess I won't be disappointed.

I have a JLG and the surface case... Best combo. Just make sure to line up the protector with the home button. The two literally fit together perfectly minus an 1/8" gap at the bottom. My camera can't even capture how well the two go together.
Enjoy!

Spigen ultra clear is just a small amount to the case so dust gathers there

I've had the ONE about a week and I've been babying it until my case arrives this coming week. Well I noticed today there are surface scratches on the screen already. I thought the gorilla glass would be better but damn these scratches are annoying me... Lol my ocd I guess. Any way to get rid of them or do I have to live with them forever. Thanks
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
You can't get rid of them but if you put a screen protector on it will hide them.
I've heard if you always clean your screen your more likely to get scrathes! Having a oily screen helps fight scratches by creating lubrication when your fingers are swiping etc.

I haven't seen any mention of the Puregear Dualtek case for the G2 so I thought I'd share. It looks like a great rugged case, very similar to a UAG. Use the code PURE50 for 50% off at checkout to knock the price down to $17.49! Just ordered one and can't wait to get it. The site doesn't specify what carrier model the case fits, though the mock up pics show the Verizon model. I contacted Puregear customer service and asked about my Sprint version. According to their engineers it will fit the Sprint variant just fine. AT&T/T-mobile will fit as well.

Looks good to me. It's a case to consider

Not if you use the code for 50% off. Also, it's a heavy duty case, not a cheap tpu.

Look those over once they arrive. For that price they're likely knock offs. I looked at eBay first and found some that were cheap but the seller had bad feedback for counterfeit cases.
A while back I bought a UAG case for my wife's phone from Amazon and it was fake. This was sold by Amazon too, not a 3rd party through Amazon. They corrected it with no issue, but it does make me hesitate when something is at that much of a discount.
If those are real, kudos to you for the find. I looked on Amazon before I purchased and there weren't any listed. I'd be jealous if I hadn't got mine for $17 and free shipping with that code.

I picked up a dualtek black (would have gone with the white, but I wasn't digging the white gloss so i opted for the matte finish black). it seems very nice so far, much bigger than the Dual Pro i'm about to return, but also feels considerably more protective. Feels more substantial than my S4 UAG case as well.

My wife was looking at s4 cases on eBay. I sent her a link from here for her device. And told her to get the black one for my g2.
Is there rubber or anything to keep it from sliding around my center console?
Sent from my LG-D800 using xda app-developers app
I've seen the slim case at ebay & suspect it's a fake. But puregear seems not posting out of US, so the best way to go for me is ebay. Even if it's possibly fake. Like the clear back plate very much & the black one has a matte finish to the sides.

The tough is here. I will say that the g2 is floating in the case. Not 100 percent float but I would say 40 percent is. All corners are stiff so it not moving around at all but the back is its not flush in all areas. It works. I guess it will let air in side for heat and cushion.
