Most cases I've tried add too much bulk and want something relatively thin.

I ordered this case a few days ago and received it today. I absolutely love it. The phone still has the slim feel to it as well as it now slides in and out of my pocket with little resistance. The case has a very tight fit around the phone. I have noticed after a day of use that the phone has no lint on it. Part of the case is a smoke clear tint and the top and bottom are a dark gray tiny. Hope this little review helps. Part of the case is a smoke clear tint and the top and bottom are a dark gray tiny. Sorry for the blurry photos.

The case arrived today.
Good news: it's fairly high quality, looks great, is made of the new rubber-silicone blend material, and it adds minimal bulk and weight with great protection.
Bad news: it doesn't fit the T-Mobile HD2. Yes, really....even though their ad specifically states that it does. It's too late tonight to reach their customer service, so I'll be calling first thing tomorrow for an immediate refund.
It's clear that this is cut to fit the "euro" HD2, as the only fit problem is the fact it can't quite streeetch all the way over the bottom lip of the phone, and it's obvious that 1.5mm less length in the phone would make the case fit perfectly. It even says on the placard in the packaging that it's for the other model
In the 3rd and 4th pics below you can see the space it won't quite stretch to cover (sorry about a little lack of clarity in the pics...it's hard to shoot macro in available light at dusk lol)
The search goes on. Next I'm going to try the one reganH22 posted above...and these are all just to keep me occupied 'till the otterbox case gets released

Just got mine Friday from the bay. Perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. Doesn't stick in pocket, protects all sides including camera, and looks pretty nice for a $10 eBay buy.

Just got my case in today; absolutely perfect! One thing though, the case covers my mic at the bottom...have you experienced people having problems hearing you? I have a TPU Candy Shell case for my Nexus One that has a hole for the mic and I have no problems with people hearing me.
Thanks for posting this case, the eBay seller is GREAT and this is exactly what I was looking for. I love TPU cases like this because they don't add bulk and aren't flimsy like silicone.

I posted this in another thread but it works in this one too...
the capdase hard silicone case works great with our version as well...just off slightly off at the bottom by the microphone but people can still hear just fine.....very snug and not feeling loose...it keeps the contour of the phone on the back which i like and it still keeps the phone slim...totally transparent...covers the camera in the back so it can be left on a table without suffering any scratches to the chrome bezel or the camera lens...looks sweet...cost is $13.40 shipped and arrived in 5 days from hong kong

Looks like the same one from the holster thread. From what they said this one works well for holding the T-mo hd2 with the screen in. The picture shows it held screen out, but I never understood that.
Anyway, the holster with "OP" on the clip is the good one

Funny! I had no idea until you just posted this. I've never had anyone tell me they are having trouble hearing me. I think the little gap there allows it to pick up the sound.
My guess is they screwed up and made the cut out on the wrong side. Looking at the TPU case that T Mobile sells (the pink one), their cutout is the exact same size, but on the opposite side. They probably used it as a template and then screwed up and reversed it. Check it out. Still love this case, regardless...
FIXED! 10 dollar cases rule.

Tell me youre kidding. I just read your post after ordering this case yesterday. I verified it should fit in every way possible. There screen shot http://www.fommy.com/view-full-page.asp?divid=HTC&model=HTC+HD2&cat=CASES&skuno=88318# showed a Tmobile US version with the case on. Then I watched this video and they used a Tmobile US Hd2 here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utDmDOi95Ps. I've already contacted them to not send it if that's the case and save everyone some trouble. As well, they should take the add down if that's the case or at least take the Tmobile USA references out of their add.

I purchased one several weeks ago and had to make a cut for the microphone also. Apparently this issue have been corrected. I just ordered another one off Ebay for little over $5, expected the same issue, but this one was corrected - no cutting needed. Fits perfect. This case is perfect for case within case.

DODOcase Review

So I received my DODOcase last week and I've decided to write a review about the case for everyone.
You can find it here: DODOcase for Nexus 7
Price/Shipping:
First off, and the shipment was pretty quick to me. I was impressed since I ordered it on Monday and had it by Thursday. I believe they hand make these cases by order basis, and so to have it turned around in under a week was nice. The box it came in wasn't fancy lol. It was just a cardboard that was cut out and folded to protect it from shipment damage. It did its job though and got to me in perfect condition. Price was steep for a case, at least for me. Came out to $48 with a 10% off coupon with shipping and taxes. You also get another 10% off coupon for someone else to use when you buy from them and if someone uses the coupon and buys a case you get another 10% back. I got another 10% back because someone used my coupon recently and ordered a case.
Quality:
The quality of the case is very high. I was impressed to say the least when I first removed the case from the packaging. You can tell it was created by good workmanship, material is good quality. Feels nice to the touch and it looks very nice to carry around. The color was spot on with what they had on the website, I couldn't be happier with the quality of this case. The elastic band is the same color as the inner panels, I was kind of assuming it would be off a lot but it is really spot on.
Functionally:
Well sure it is pretty but how well does it function at its true core, a case. First the tablet is secured to the case by a doubled sided sticky tape. You peel the top layer off the tape and stick your tablet in place. I had to reset the case about 2 times to get it just where I wanted it. The tape never lost its strength and still holds very very well. I read you can reuse this tape as well by just wiping down the tape with water and it restores the stickiness to it. Haven't tried this yet though.
Next the fit of the case. The case itself is very thin and sleek, and just hugs the Nexus 7 perfect. As you can see in my pictures, the case is very close in size to the Nexus 7, it leaves a little boarder between the edge of the tablet to the edge of the case. Just enough so I would be confident that it would protect my Nexus 7 from a drop. I really like the fit of this case, can't stress that enough. Plus it is pretty light. One thing that kind of bugs me is the Power/Volume buttons are a little harder to access with case on. The case is so low profile that it comes very close to the buttons - the way ASUS place the buttons on the curve of the back panel causes this little problem, so you kind of have to angle your finger different then you normally would to push the buttons.
Lastly, the perch modes and carrying. The standing up perch mode works well for viewing movies at your desk, browsing the web and controlling your playlist for music. I stick the elastic band under the back to give it better support on slick surfaces. The laying down perch mode is okay. I wish it had a wider angle but I understand that to keep this case low profile, it had to stay at a lower angle. Usually I am carrying this case in my hand. It feels good to carry it in one hand and do want you need with the other. I can also thumb type very easy with the case on and folded back. I am typing this whole review actually from my Nexus 7 with the DODOcase, feels comfortable still.
I love the smart cover feature (sleep/wake) this case has. It works perfect, turns off and wakes the screen as intended. The elastic band is a nice feature as well. It looks great when the case is closed and it holds the case shut very well. I guess looking down the line, I can probably see that the elastic band might become dirty from always taking it off and on. I guess I could use try to wash the band if it gets to that point but I have only had it for a few days.
(TLDR)
Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with this case. It's very low profile which is always something I look for in a case. It's sleek and sexy and yet adds that protection for your case if you ever happen to drop it, also very light weight. The sleep/wake functions were just the icing on the cake and really completes this case. The price is steep but you do get a high quality case that is sure to get some questions, coworkers and family have really recognized the quality of this case in the few days I've spent with it and really like it. I would recommend this case for anyone that is looking into it. :good:

EDIT Nvm, refreshed lol...

Thanks for the review! Was thinking of ordering one while I waited on my Treegloo case. Didn't like the idea of the strap being the same color as the inside cover (blue) but it actually looks good!

Thanks, you just cost me $48.00+ because I ordered one of these cases to go along w/ the tablet as a Xmas gift.
Where do I send you the bill? (I would have ordered a cheap Amazon type case because I didn't know about this company until I read your review - so, obviously, this is your fault! )

Handiwork looks beautiful. I just can't get enough of these bookcases!

I got the case in black when I got my N7 and it's a nice case.
Loving it.

Awesome review! I've been waiting around to see if I could find any thing better but every time I see the dodo i can't resist

Ahhhhh the price is sooooo steep lol. Does anyone know if it will fit the 3G model?? Basically access to the Sim port. Gooosshhh I might get one. Nothing but positive reviews!!!!

I really wish they had the wood frame for the N7 like the other cases they make. If they did I would order one right away! Instead I took a risk and ordered a Treegloo and hopefully that comes in soon :-\

There are a few on Amazon UK, you seem to need to search for ""xperia t" case" to get them to come up, perhaps because they are so new and not ranked correctly in search

This looks like it may be the best of the bunch thus far. Gonna order one this weekend.

Got this one also from MobileFun.

I'm hoping a better quality TPU case will come along.
The one I mentioned above from Amazon does the job but its not a good fit. There is a clear gap near the headphone socket viewed from the front, and it doesn't sit flush along the front bottom.
Will keep it safe for now though

Just reposting something I posted in another thread.
I bought a Terrapin Solid Black Hybrid Rubberised Back Cover / Case / Shell / Shield + 6-in-1 Screen Protector Pack for Xperia T from Amazon and it arrived almost a week earlier than estimated (2 days delivery!)
Best bit is it was only £4 so it's amazing value for money. It doesn't feel cheap at all and the material feels very smooth with a matte finish. Almost the same texture as the T's back case. The fit is perfect too - it snaps on to either sides of the phone with only openings at the top and bottom and the device feels very secure in the case.
The aforementioned sides of the case also raise slightly higher (about a mm or so) than the screen so if you were to rest the phone on a flat surface face down the screen never touches. In regards to accessing the side buttons (Power, Volume controls and Camera button) they're all very easy to press - unless you have fat fingers or overgrown nails.
I highly recommend getting one from Amazon since the delivery came earlier than expected and even if you want something more protective (leather flip case, bumper etc) this is only £4 and makes a great temporary case.
Link to the case can be found herehttp://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B009HRVW7W/ref=mp_s_a_4?pi=SL75&qid=1350000465&sr=8-4

My apologies if the photos aren't very clear. They were taken with my girlfriend's iPhone 4 - at night - in the kitchen. If you want I can take a few outside tomorrow morning in the sunlight at whatever angles you want. As you can see the case hardly adds any bulk to the phone - about 1.5 mm either side and 1.5 mm on the back.

The Rock naked case is really nice, have no issues with it so far and looks great.

Just bought the Krussel one, very handsome, well fiting and comfortable touch...I really like it and don't regret my money...

Next week i gonna get my Xperia T and i gonna order this case
http://www.ebay.nl/itm/Protect-Sili..._PDA_Taschen_Schutzhüllen&hash=item3f1caf26d3
love the design :good:

Quick question: What kind of case is best for impact protection, a hard case or a TPU case? Also, how badly will each type affect the phone's ability to cool itself? I've never used a case for my phones before, and I'm kind of worried about exposing the softer TPU case to the hot afternoon sun when I use my phone as a GPS, so I would like some advice if possible.

Got this today and its fantastic, well made and really suits the phone

Glad you like it. I haven't found anything better yet, which could be a good thing - it really is a nice case.
That said, I sent a message to Incipio on their facebook site and I got a response to keep an eye out on their company website in the next 2 weeks or so... I like their other Sony smartphone cases. Another great company is Krusell, they already have cases for Xperia T but they don't seem to deliver to the UK.

I got my Rock case last week, and I have to say I love it. It feels tough, while not being obtuse or overbearing size wise. The edges on the screen side are tall enough to prevent the phone from resting on the screen itself when turned over, but don't stick up too much to be in the way.

Yeah I have the white Rock case and it's easily one of the nicest cases I've seen

Video Review: Speck FitFolio Case

Hey fellas,
Got my hands on the new Speck FitFolio case for the Nexus 7. As the name states, this is a folio style case that offers great protection and also added functionality. Due to the hard plastic and leather design, your Nexus 7 is kept safe and snug within the case. Similarly, you can use the included flaps to prop your Nexus 7 up into several angles for typing and viewing movies, which comes in really handy! Although the case is 35$, which is a premium price to pay, the high quality build and increased functionality really make it a compelling buy.
Check out the full video review below;

Its a great little case, I love mine. You can get them on amazon for $19.95. For that price, well worth it.

That's an awesome video review. Can't wait till mine arrives.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

Thanks guys. It's definitely the best I've used for the Nexus 7 so far.

good review and it look pretty solid for the price

I got mine in on the 23rd as well and the quality of the case blew me away, by FAR the nicest case for any phone or tablet I've seen. Very ultra premium look and feel and functionally it does exactly what it should.
Another benefit is when its closed it looks more like a notebook/journal than any kind of device so its a little safer sitting out. I would recommend this case to anyone without hesitation.

I have this case and love it as well, but I have to say the quality control isn't the best. My first case looked amazing from the front, but on the back, the part where the plastic shell meets the leatherette front flap wasn't the neatest looking. Not terrible, just a bit of excess glue and the upper left corner wasn't glued in uniformly and there was a small section that was raised up. I ordered a replacement case, and that one was perfect looking all the way around, but the magnet must have been in a different position because it never woke my screen. I ordered a third replacement case, and that one had an even uglier back than the first one, with lots of little uneven areas where the flap wasn't glued neatly to the case.
I'm not expecting perfection or anything, but 3 cases with 3 quality issues is kind of a bummer, so I emailed Speck to let them know, and ask if there was a way to ensure I'd get a case without any issues if I took the plunge and ordered a 4th one.
I never heard back from them, so I decided just to keep the first one since it was the best of the 3, and return the other two, but I still wish I would have received SOME kind of response, even if it was just a "There's always going to be small defects because X manufacturing process" or "We weren't aware of any quality control issues, we'll look into it", or even "Sorry, we can't guarantee you'll get a case without some raised edges/extra glue/a functioning magnet, etc." Any response at all would have been nice.
It's still my favorite Nexus 7 case so far, I just wanted to let people know that the quality control might be a little lacking. It seems like nobody else has been reporting any issues with their case, but I think 3 for 3 might be indicative of an issue. Either that or I'm just insanely unlucky.

I never heard back from them, so I decided just to keep the first one since it was the best of the 3, and return the other two, but I still wish I would have received SOME kind of response, even if it was just a "There's always going to be small defects because X manufacturing process" or "We weren't aware of any quality control issues, we'll look into it", or even "Sorry, we can't guarantee you'll get a case without some raised edges/extra glue/a functioning magnet, etc." Any response at all would have been nice.
It's still my favorite Nexus 7 case so far, I just wanted to let people know that the quality control might be a little lacking. It seems like nobody else has been reporting any issues with their case, but I think 3 for 3 might be indicative of an issue. Either that or I'm just insanely unlucky.

It sounds like either you're insanely unlucky or I'm terribly lucky! I was sent out 3 for review from Speck, and all of them are in great condition. Some of my viewers have purchased the case as well, and haven't mentioned any issues. I would continue trying to get a functional model, Speck is usually great with their customer service.

Posted the link since the red one wasn't even on their site. Yea that's a long wait.

Alright. I just got home and the Trident Aegis package was waiting at my door. First impressions? Not too happy Its not like the typical Aegis cases that I have seen. Normally, they are two separate pieces with a soft silicone layer and a separate, hard polycarbonate shell. This one is a single piece with the two layers combined into one (hybrid style?). But, on top of that, the inner layer is not very soft at all. The whole case is fairly thin with a fairly hard feel to it. It makes me question its ability to absorb shock in a fall.

I will try in a bit. I just walked in the door so have a few things to do first. I like the feel of the case in the hand so far. Maybe the initial shock of it being totally different than I expected will wear off. haha

Seems to be like slapping a bumper sticker on a Mercedes... am I missing something? Id like to see some good pics..
Sent from my AT&T Galaxy Note II /w wireless charging.

Here are some picks. I like the form factor of the case. It feels pretty solid in the hand and has some decent grip. I'm still not over it being so different than I had expected. That is probably biasing my opinion right at the moment. For people that like a slimmer design and a one piece case, I can see it being a pretty good pick. I was expected a two-piece case with a substantial silicone layer to absorb shock. This doesn't have much of a cushioning factor.
The dust covers on the headphone jack and charging port are more like plugs than a complete covering. They are also quite stiff. This might make them less likely to get floppy, but I'm not so sure that's true if they are held open all night when charging or when listening to headphones. It's possible they'd lose some of their spring.
Getting it in and out of the case isn't too bad. It's a little stiff just because of the nature of a hybrid case, but nothing that makes me feel like I'm going to hurt the phone.There's a decent lip around the screen so placing it face down is not an issue.
The polycarbonate backing is fairly slick. People may have varying opinions about how much grip they get on the case. The sides are a softer feel which gives the edges more of a sticky feeling. Tridents logo on the back is recessed enough that it doesn't add any grip there. When you set the case on a flat service, the logo in the silicone layer doesn't even touch. This is good in that it doesn't make the phone wobbly, but it makes the phone more slippery so that it may slide of your dash for instance if you had it up there when driving.
So far my overall opinion is that its a nice case if you want a slimmer fit, one piece case that is fairly stylish looking. Personally I was looking for something a little beefier and I might keep looking since this doesn't quite fit the bill for me. But, it certainly might grow on me once I recover from the initial wtf factor. I had a really slim case on my original note (sgp ultra capsule) and that has worked out just fine. This one is certainly more protective than the ultra capsule or a standard tpu. But, it's so solid feeling that I fear it's only a slight improvement.
Feel free to ask any questions or request a specific picture. I'm taking the pictures with my note 1 and I'm not the best at setting up shots, but I'll try my best.

I have one coming in a day or so, and I have to say I am disappointed off the at that it is not dual layer. Every one so far has, so I think its pretty misleading that this one isnt. Cant wait for the Casemate Tough Case now....

I think its very misleading. The videos that Trident has on the same page as the Note 2 Aegis case are of models that are dual layer. No where do they say its single layer or "hybrid" style casing in the product description.
I will be contacting Trident to let them know of my disappointment in that area.

That's really misleading. I just ordered one thinking it would be two separate layers. I have to admit though I've been dying for an urban Armor gear which is a one piece just like this one is. So I'm pretty glad it's not two piece!
