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

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?
I cannot wait until this comes out....looks like otterbox case almost. Has anyone found anything like this anywhere else?

I'm waiting for this too.
I emailed them for a release date and never got a reply back.

Thanks for the info, finally shipping some decent cases, would prefer to have less bulky options tho from other manufacturers.
Just me or am I the only one that finds that case not very attractive at all?
Looks way too bulky.
When it arrives, could you write a review? I'm in need of a case, but with with shipping costs it's at over 50 $, so I want to be certain the case is really good.
PLEASE post pics when you get it
I ordered it last week. I should be getting it tomorrow.

New Active X Seidio case and holster for Nexus S!!
Just got an email from Seidio about the Google Nexus S Active X and the Holster Combo. I don't know if I'm gonna get one but they look alright.
Here's the link http://www.seidioonline.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=K3SSN2
i ordered just the case, no holster, as i think putting phones on belts is kinda lame. but, i hope this thing is still pocketable. I am so rough on phones, an i have decided with the ns that i will no longer switch phones ever 3 months. So i gotta keep her fit. Delivery was just confirmed, and arriving today or tom...will post pics.
10% off your entire order
Hey guys, after seeing this post, I used this code:
DISC2011
It worked, while it is only 10%, it is off your entire order and still better than a sharp stick in the eye.
Any help to the community is better than none
I ordered it last week and it just shipped today.
Monday then? I'm very interested as well.
I received it on Friday... so far so good. Its very slippery. The first layer is really thin and the exoskeleton has a nice touch. The volume and power buttons are covered but very easy to use. Not much bulk and the first thin rubber is a lint magnet. I like it. 8 out of 10.
Hey guys I recently stumbled onto a new brand of cases. The brand is called imak and the cases they look pretty nice. They currently have 3 types of cases for the nexus 7.
The first one is called the imak slim. You can eBay search it as there are multiple posts of this case. Its like the incipio feather but much cheaper. It looks pretty high quality not like other eBay cases.
Price - $13.20
The third one is the imak cowboy. Its basically the same as the imak slim but with a more rugged texture. Same as a above just type in imak cowboy to find the case on eBay.
Price - $14.30
The third one is my favorite but a little more expensive. Its called the imak luxury. It is really good looking and is made from genuine leather. It looks awesome. The problem is that there is only one posting and it is shipped using economy shipping. Which could take up to 4 weeks to come. I'm going to be ordering one of these. The quality of the case is amazing. BTW there are only 9 left so get em while you can .
Price - $22.99
Ohh and did I mention you get a free screen protector with each case.
All these cases are on eBay.
I don't know man it does not look like good quality. The texture itself is not smooth and looks very tacky. I am not sure if I would be comfortable with a brand that says iMak on my Nexus...lol. It is cheap though compared to the other high end quality cases like the Noreve. That case cost me around $70 which is ridiculous price but you get what you pay for. The biggest thing I would be worried about is that this thing is coming from china. You might as well get the Speck nexus case for $35 which is really nice and genuine. Good Luck
I'm going to go ahead an order one of the slim cases. I will report back once I receive it.

Please report back with a review or some pics of the slim case. Im also thinking about it.
I'm going to get a blue slim case and a grey cowboy case. You can get them much cheaper at this site. Will post a review of both of them once I get them.
http://www.obostore.com/index.php?m...ription=0&categories_id=&keyword=imak+nexus+7
I used imak cowboy for my S3. The quality seems quite good and I like it because it's so slim and provide good grip for S3. Will try to look for nexus 7 cover.
I think you can buy better looking better protection for the same or less money, those slim cases you link to are basically book type covers without any edge protection
Spigen announced their well-known Slim Armor line for the new One M8 a while ago and this case also comes in a sexy Gunmetal color .
I'm actually thinking of buying it, but I am waiting for some experiences from other people, since I've had button issues with their cases in the past (Neo Hybrid for the Galaxy S3 and Slim Armor for the Nexus 5). I've heard that some orders have already been shipped, is there someone here that has already received his order? Please post some of your experiences here if you have :fingers-crossed:
Where to Buy:
Amazon
Ebay

There is no cutout for the power button judging from the pictures. Might affect IR blaster.

I was not thinking on buying a case but this looks beyond sexy. The non-functioning IR blaster may be a deal breaker though. I use my M8 as my control literally every day. Hmmmmm.
I can't figure out why they keep making cases that block the IR blaster. The hybrid bumper case is good looking too, but has the same issue.
Style-wise Spigen is on point, but silly to pay $20 for something that removes functionality.
mine is on its way says in transit
I had one on my galaxy s4 and really liked it. I've messed around with quite a few cases and that one is definitely my favorite. I was also looking at the Incipio Dualpro, not sure if that fixes the IR Blaster problem.
Mine is on its way as well, I'll look into ways to modify it to keep the IR blaster. I don't really use the feature at school but I like to show my friends the feature. Will update on the case when I get it
My mom has the same type of case for her iphone and its sexy. definitely my favorite case especially for this phone because it mimics the design of the phone
i pre-ordered mine, and it was shipped yesterday, cant wait till it gets here!
I really want the gunmetal one, but it's a shame I'll have to wait until April 30th!
I bought my case off their ebay page since it was only $14. Honestly I didn't even realize that I purchased a TPU case until it got here and for the record, I hate hate hate TPU cases.
With that said, this might be one of the nicest cases I have ever put on a phone. Not only is it crystal clear with the cut outs perfect, but its a perfect fit. Just amazing.
2 more quick points... The buttons actually feel a little better to the touch and the IR blaster works perfectly.
Another perfect Spigen case.
Crystal clear? Are you sure that is the slim armor?

Ordered on March 26th
Shipped on April 7th
Delivered on April 11th
Unfortunately the UPS tracking number that was provided in my Amazon account does not even resemble a normal UPS tracking number so I am unable to tell when it will arrive. However when it does, I will be sure to come back and give it a run down.
EDIT: It looks like this was shipped straight from the manufacturing facility in Korea to Spigen in California...then to me. Hence the reason the UPS tracking did not show up via conventional UPS.com tracking.
For anyone who per-ordered and has a UPS Tracking # that does not show up via ups.com. It will show up if you go to UPS Mail Innovations.
First impressions of case: Fits phone very well, feels great in the hand...the only negative I see is the lack of an IR window. But other than that...it's a keeper.

Same here, guessing they are shipping it from wherever it's made in China. I'm refusing it either way, no IR and sounds like it's more bulky than I want.

Leather back has a hump in it. Cases have to be specifically designed with that in mind. If you have a black leather back I'll trade you my metallic plastic back
Seriously... I throw in some cash too. If you're interested name your price.
If someone has a brown leather they want to trade for a metallic gray, let me know. We can work the details out
But anyways.! for those that have used a Diztronic case, how do you like the cases they make? Does the full matte finish really help with fingerprints and oil? Are they normally a good fit? Thinking of maybe getting a case until I find a leather back.
Got my grey diztronic today, fits great
