I ordered this case off ebay as well and it was shipped from California. I believe it was $10 with free shipping.

The case comes with these extended bumper corners which make holding the phone easier and provides extra protection from the Left Corner Drop of Doom. The weakest point of the case is the kickstand. The kickstand is flimsy and does not have a positive lock in place or a strong hinge when opened. the volume keys as well as the power key are covered. The charging port as well as the earphone jack are left exposed. The black rubber is harder than the standard TPU but not as hard as the white plastic that it is attached to.
All in all its a nice case

Nice case..found it too, with so many color variations..but they wont ship here..huhu..thanx for the review..
not a big fan at all, looks horrible!
Makes it look like the size of the Ziggy device on Quantum Leap show.
Well......
Im not sure how it makes the phone look bigger because the case isnt pictured with the phone in it.
Anyways I was in Sprint looking to see if they had gotten in either of my two favorites which are otterbox or ballistic and they hadnt. There was an older than me gentle man who was looking for a case for his phone and they had none and he said he was affraid he was going to break it. I explained that I understood seeing how my first one lasted 20hrs. I reached in my back pocket and gave him the case. He wanted to pay me for it but I told him it wasnt necessary and wished him a happy holiday season. He seemed a bit confused as well as the Sprint employees wonder why I was asking about a case when I am just pulling them out of my pocket giving them away like toys from Santa's bag. I think giving away an $8 freely shipped case to someone who will appreciate the act and may recipicate an act of kindnes to someone else this season is worth the small investment.
I have this exact case as well. It makes the phone too big for breast pockets, but still fine for pants pockets and carrying. I plan on only using it for when I need protection, but not as a daily driver. For the price, you can't beat it.
Ordered the same case. Do you have pics of the phone in it?
I have this case i think it feel really good in the Hand and looks good too. CLICK on the Link to see the Pictures

Agreed, but the TPU is a lot more stiff. Not certain but I would venture to guess these cases wouldn't do as well in drop tests.

Does anyone know where to purchase one for the Legend, or if they're going to be available/produced soon?
think there should have one already or soon to come out with one. Just what a waste to put a silicon case on an beauty like the legend. guess we want to protect our gadgets too
Just bought here:

wow that's eh, not pretty
I've ordered THIS http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...Category=20336&_trkparms=algo=LVI&its=I&otn=2
Hopefully, it will look like the picture, ie. cleaner arround the edges. If not, it's useful until something better comes along.
i got this http://cgi.ebay.it/HTC-LEGEND-FITTED-HYDRO-GEL-CASE-CLEAR-UK-SELLER-100-/360261490790?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_MobilePhones_MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item53e1421866 it's hard silicon and therefore easier to take out my pockets, just perfect in my opinion
search for Amzer covers if you like color.
Can't put link here cause i'm new.
CAPDASE makes a nice gel skin called Soft Jacket 2 Xpose that is worth paying a bit extra for IMHO. I had one for my HTC Hero and it was the nicest gel skin I've ever used. Easy to slide in and out of my pocket without the it gripping to my pocket too.
Comes in white or black and includes a screen protector!

i bought a cheap silicone one on ebay but i'm not satisfied, it looks terrible
got the answer by myself, it's silicon. gonna get one for sure!
Where can you order that silicone case by capdase from?

Have a look!
Hi folks!
Can't post links as this is my first post, but just search for "HTC Legend flexishield" on ebay
I have been really happy with it thus far. There are some great reviews if you Google the above phrase and look at the listing on the mobilefun co uk site. There are some better photos there too.
I was on cheap silicone cover till yesteday the today I moved to flexyshield.
Works really great and fits the phone perfectly
One of the best aspects of the Legend is its sleek aluminium body/chassis.... there is no way I could cover it all up with a case!!
Yeah it's nice but that aluminum on the back sure taps like it's plastic. I kinda wish the entire back was that soft black rubber coating. But then it would not slide in/out pockets very easily...hmmm
Has anyone bought/used these before, and do they work? I have an s-line tpu case and wondered if its worth it to upgrade to this. -Ara
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Amzer is a pretty decent company to buy from, and the skins are somewhat inexpensive. They sent me a few demo items to see if our stores were interested in carrying their Nexus 7 products... The overall fit was pretty snug, the skin seems fairly well made minus the edges which needed a little cleaning up. I didn't have any issues with the skin obstructing any features of the device, and it was easy to slip on and off. Here's a few pictures, hope they help with the decision making:

If you have any more questions please feel free to ask.
So just a little more feedback on this silicone skin... I dropped my Nexus 7 while getting out of my Jeep this morning (hands full and in a hurry to get to the office), and the blasted thing landed face down on concrete. If not for this skin I would instead be spending my evening searching for a replacement screen. It's by no means an otterbox, but the fact that it covers around the screen saved it.
Definitely give it two thumbs up!
Amzer silicone case
I got the black one bought at Expansys.com. It feels great, very thick rubber with a leather-like texture, reinforced with the x-shaped, thicker rubber piece in the middle that serves as an outer skeleton and adds extra rigidity. The case wraps around of all of the device without obstructing any holes/ports similarly to an otterbox impact cases.The edges serve the protective purpose. There is nothing wrong with them. They are spaced out more like the protruding edges of balistic cases. I feel confident that if my Nexus falls it will bounce off without any damage due to the case design. I store my Nexus when not in use in the bag inside a Case Logic Eva zippered case for additional screen protection.
We just reviewed one here at the office and the case does a pretty decent job. Not expensive either, so, I'd say worth the purchase.

This needs a bump, I ordered one from amazon.. and it was crap to say the least. I contacted Amzer and even though i ordered from a third party seller they offered to replace it for me for FREE! gotta love customer service! Other than that its a great case. :good:
Nice case!
I have the black one ordered from amazon as well.. It came in very quick . I agree this will protect the device from most bumps and bangs. this is the 3rd case i bought .
I am going to sell all 3 on ebay for a good price if i decide against buying another nexus 7.. not made my mind up. sent two back not sure i wanna deal with the hassles of google device support to order another..
anyway GREAT CASE for the money..
Found on a local store very cheap about 5 us dollars
Couldnt find it on ebay or amazon was shocked to find this in a small local store !
The back is hard crystal with clear tpu all around 100% satisfied ! Bought 2 hhhhhh

Do you have that case? Wonder if it fits the att note 2 I have
The polycarbonate clear shells look good new but they get scuffed real easily
Cool! Nice thing about plastic is that if it gets scratched you can buff it out and repolish, right? I'd miss my kickstand, though.
Sadly no brand name just a plastic cover. Even the store said its just a chineese case not a brand. I like it so much as its totally clear not frosted and even the lip is tpu clear raised to protected the screen and all of all its only 5 dollars.
And yes plastic scuffes easy but not visible.

It looks great!

Looks like a scratch magnet to me.
There is an all clear one on Amazon but it's not $5
That's a nice case that shows off the beautiful design and color. However, you should know that hard plastic may etch into your $250 phone.
I like the look of these cases but I've seen them yellow and that's my concern.

Yes tpu does yellow. Does anyone know how to clean it?
Soap and water
looks damn good. been looking for one that is like this online
I ended up grabbing this clear case off of amazon to go with some skins I purchased. It's just a hard plastic case and for ~$8 it makes me feel a bit safer. The fit is great (although I do have a skin that adds some, albeit very little, width) and when it's snapped on it is ON. It's mainly to tide me over until I find a great place to buy some custom cases but I have no complaints for the moment.
Hello guys, how are you?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/281034264527?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
I bought this case on ebay and I really like it. I think it is a great cost/benefit product.
I don't know about others because I live in Brazil and I have to pay a very expensive shipping. (1 US dollar = 2 BR reais)
It isn't a hard case but it feels like one and it protects all the coners and screen.
I have some pictures:

Funny, I have the same case. Basically, I got it because it was cheap (less than $5 shipped). The case itself is really good. The stand and holster, however, are poorly designed.
My holster clip broke after 3 days after the clip fell off 6 times and the silicone was tearing where the hard plastic met with it in the corners

I hate the tpu on this, its so flimsy.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
True, holster clip is a junk. I wouldn't trust it. But kickstand was solid! Can even be used in flygrip style to hold the case
Got my hubby one of these... love the way it feels. Rubber is a lil too loose for peace of mind but it is relatively thin and design is pretty. So far holster is holding up ok
This case has no TPU. It's all silicone and hard plastic.
My kickstand is falling apart. It also doesn't stay open unless you "click" it into place (since it was new). Like I said, for the price, it really doesn't matter. But you can find better cases for about the same amount or maybe a little more. I didn't care much for the holster, but thought that I might use it if I have to wear formal attire. However, it is so hard to get the phone in and out of the damn thing, that I never did. The silicone headphone port protector also fell off, but no biggie.
My main gripes are the use of silicone instead of TPU and the crappy kickstand (which I use A LOT). When the kickstand finally breaks, I'll be getting another case with a properly designed kickstand. Hopefully, by then a proper one will be out (like the one I used to have on my HTC Evo).

Off topic: yes, we both got refurbs for .99 cents each (plus upgrade fee). Skyrocket is now being used by my 2 1/2 year old son until it gets sold. Pretty happy with the note2 except for the bulk. Still shopping for decent case... I think I'll buy my husband a defender case when this one breaks. He is a disaster in the making when it comes to phones. Lol
The Seidio active Holster fits this case perfectly. They make an great combo. In fact I shelved the Seidio Active case and kept using this one with the Seidio Holster since they make a damn good combo
Tech21 doesn't seem to get a lot of attention in this group. I'm just wondering what everyone thinks. I have an Evo Check for my phone and it is a great case. Fits well and seems like it would protect the phone. Still, I also want a folio type case, to protect the screen. Tech21 has this case: https://www.tech21.com/en_us/evo-wallet-galaxy-note8-black
Does anyone have any experience with it that would tell me whether it would be a good or bad purchase?
Their cases are too slippery and they make so few cases for the Note 8 I over look them. Quality is crap for how much they cost

I hope this information helps. I also wanted a folio type case to protect the cover as all the screen protectors seem to be pretty lacking. I went with my wife to the T-Mobile store where she wanted to get an S8 Plus and this case that you picked out was close to what she got. Was given a drop test by the cashier using his own phone. The packaging was pretty plain and I wasn't that impressed but wanted to get in and out and we got it. After checking it out after she had it a few weeks I went ahead and ordered the one that you pasted a link for above. Honestly I recommend it. Pretty sturdy and thin but protects the phone quite nicely. has a clip clasp and obviously covers the front. Not bulky but not skimpy either... My fourth case for the note lol and this one is a keeper.. Go for it.

I use the Tech21 EVO as it fits with the Dome Glass protector I have. This is my first Tech21 case but the version I got is not slippery at all due to the back.

Looked into that. Its a nice case, but that clasp needs to be magnetic or something, I found the plastic push-in clasp to be cumbersome to open and close quickly.

My s5 it has a tech 21 case has 3 years old and it fel so many times. It is an impressive piece of engenering, just the sound it makes when it its the floor...it sounds muted like it is made from ruber.
Off course i would get a tech 21 for my note 8, choose the evo wallet because ...such a big screen ...
It is very expensive.
they are not slepery unless one has spider hands!
I wish they made a case that completly isolates the phone, and another one so that i can put the phone on my bikes like rokform does.
I am very happy with my evo!
