When I got home this case was waiting for me at my door.

I think the case looks great on the M8, but who cares what I think, have a look for yourself!
All the proper cutouts are there, as far as I can tell. Only the power button has an actual cutout, the volume button is covered but still gives nice feedback.
I've had previous experiences where the clear back material gets scratched up easily, I will update this post accordingly once I rock the case for a few days.
I bought the same case, hoping I'll have it by Monday or Tuesday.

I purchased mine on announcment day and received it earlier than expected!
Mine showed up yesterday, and I really like it. It doesn't add a lot of bulk and you can still see the gun metal gray through the back. I do foresee the need to polish the clear plastic every so often to keep it looking nice tho.
I just received mine yesterday. Probably the best case I have owned for my one. Going to bestbuy later to return the speck candy shell I bought.
I got this case to hold me over until the dot case arrived because it was so cheap. I am actually very happy with it. For $5 you cannot beat this. Decent drop protection and looks nice.

Better than I expected.
Light scratches on the back of the case. Every thing else is solid.
I really like this case. The black border looks great. The only issue I have with it is the bottom of the case with the bigger cut out for the power and headphone jack, the plastic is not strong enough there and the plastic sticks away slightly. The black border adds a good amount of extra grip. For the price I might just get another as backup.

Hard clear plastic will scratch and look and feel worst overtime, I suggest putting a wet install back protector.

Looks great! I got a case that looks very similar, I bet it's a identical generic version, for a couple of bucks cheaper than the SUPCASE. I'll post some pictures later to give a comparison.

I received mine in the mail today. Little slippery, but grips enough for me (I'm not much of a dropper.) The cut out for the microphone on the back is a little off, but not enough to cover the microphone at all. Finally, the cut out for the headphone jack and the USB port is kind of sharp around the edges, I might consider filing those down.
Overall, it's not bad for $10!
I ordered one of these as well. I wound up ordering three cases from Amazon on Friday night. Delivery estimate is between 4/18 - 5/5!
Can anyone share a picture of the back to see the branding? Is it very intrusive?

Since there is no barely there case can anyone tell me what is a good thin case?
Incipio Feather for the regular Nexus S is probably the closest thing to what you're looking for. It will fit the 4g, but the power button cutout is a little off center. Doesn't really bother me at all, though--I really like the case.
Off center is fine as long as it fits
No white? Blue it is
Thanks

I have a feather too. Great case, doesnt completely cover the top n bottom of the phone but it doesnt bother me.
I jus ordered a feather. Hopefully it will be here soon. Thinness I can find
Update. Feather came today. Looks very nice. Volume is off center and I had to ever-so-slightly trim it. Very nice. Thin, feels better in my hand. $16 on eBay for the black one.
a picture is like 1000 words ...
Taken w my wife's epic 4g. Hard to snap great pics and hold it lol. Very happy w the case after the slight trim where the volume is.

Pretty nice .. Thank you for the pictures.
i bought a red feather case black was sold out at the time and thought red would be a nice change. Turns out i didn't like the red, i used RIT dye and dyed it black using a trick i remembered from my diamond years ago, came out very well. Got bored and started to use sandpaper to give it some texture, after about an hour i have a silver case with black Incipio engraving.. pretty nice. Finished off with smooth straight strokes with sandpaper. Ended up with a fairly good looking stainless steelish case.

I wrote a short review and posted it to my site (site has affiliate and non-affiliate link) along with 11 pictures. Here is a copy of the review.
Here is the case, the Incipio Feather Ultra Thin Case, I just purchased for my Nexus S 4G from Amazon. As you can see by the pictures, the case definitely lives up to its name, it is very thin and also very light. I’ve only owned it for an hour so I will not be able to report on its durability, nor will I drop my phone to test it.
The case is easy to put on and has a snug fit. The holes for the volume buttons, camera, flash and speaker line up perfectly. However, this case was designed for the Nexus S so the hole for the power button doesn’t match perfectly but doesn’t interfere with its operation. I’m able to wake and power the phone on/off easily. The case is open at the bottom and shouldn’t obstruct the use with the mini-usb and headphone jack with a dock.
It feels a little slick but not as slick as the back without a cover. I can’t feel a discernible difference in the weight and size of the phone with the case on. I can imagine this will prevent a lot of the small dings and scratches but wouldn’t offer much protection if you drop your phone. I usually buy cases for my phone but end up taking them off because of the added bulk. For me, this one is a keeper.

I think Ringke is the best case for 4g. Nice texture, good protection, looks good and fits phone perfectly. This case surpassed all my expectations.

Got this one also from MobileFun.

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.

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.

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
I saw earlier that this case I recently got looks very similar to the SUPCASE hybrid bumper case posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2706539
Thought I'd post some pictures then and a quick review, since this case is a few bucks cheaper than the SUPCASE after shipping costs and everything, so you guys can get a deal on a preeeeeetty good case. All the cut-outs are where they need to be, the bumper TPU looks glossier than most TPU that are matte, and the HTC One's back looks slick as ever in the clear back window. Can't ask for much more in a case under ten bucks.

Just got this case. So far my favorite case. I have the Hyperion, the cimo, the dot view but so far this is my favorite.
I got this case as well, in black. The top and bottom lips are loose like someone mentioned and quite a bit of dust gets under it . Overall the case looks pretty sleek and the clear back definitely shows off the nice metallic look. However, I feel that the case adds quite a bit of weight to the phone. Maybe I'm just used to the cruzerlite bugdroid cases as I've had on my older phones. Does anyone have both the exact prism and the cruzerlite cases and able to comment on their thoughts? :laugh:
Ah, thanks for the review. I have the Supcase one and it also has the problem with the top and bottom lips being a little loose. I wonder if these are all the same cases with just different logos slapped on the back? I dunno... I also ordered the amCase deal, on it's way. Curious to see if that one's any better.

I don't think anyone will be better than the other.. If you ask me they are probably all made in the same plant(or few plants) just some are stamped with the individual company logo and some are not. There are also a bunch of the same type of case on ebay with no brand name. I mean a lot of these cases that these companies brand are just generic cases from China.

My cheapo amCase came in today... It's basically the same design as all the others, but the back is a matte frosted plastic which actually makes the phone more awkward to hold, it's a little slippery. Basically the same exact tpu bumper, but mine has slightly more sag at the top and bottom lips. I like the way the glossy Supcase feels... will keep the amCase as a $2 spare, lol.
Just picked one up... Definitely like how it shows off my Amber Gold while protecting my device. I don't like how hard it is to get the phone in and out of the case.

I have this same case in the same color. My only issue with this case is the volume control buttons are a little stiff. I hope that will fix itself when the case gets broken-in. I love how this case shows off the body of the M8 through the clear back.
I like the quality of the side's. Would love an all matte case. All I've found have a matte back with glossy sides.

I've seen one by Griffin, has the matte sides, but a glossy back, lol. Saw it at an unofficial Verizon store, was $24.99, which is obviously a lot for a case like this. The sales guy opened it up for me, the matte sides were actually kind of slippery, no grip to them.
Nice review, thanks. Just worried as people seem to complain about the gap on the top and bottom. Luckily they're cheap so no big loss if I didnt like it
In your opinion, this the best clear case out there?
I can't really say, as I haven't tried all the cases. However, evidence points to this case being generic and is identical to clear cases from other brands. The Exact Prism case is at a good price though, so I would wholly recommend it, despite the looser fit.
Anyone have the white/clear one? I was wondering if the white stains
I just noticed that Best Buy has what appears to be the HTC OEM translucent hard shell case for $14.99. Search for SKU 5641313. Anyone have experience with it? I just ordered, but looks like it'll be over a week 'til delivery.
EDIT:
Case arrived. See here:

If it's similar to the M7 one that I had it's a nice, minimal case (and it came with a free HTC screen protector as well!)
I take it this is what you're on about?
http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=258366&phone=259879
Yes, I have one.
Barely notice it's there, which is great, but a few days down the line, the back of the case is already showing some scratches.
Does have a slight lip on the front to protect the screen face-down, though, which is good.
I don't think it'll last long until I cave in and get a DotView to replace it.
I was planning to buy this since I had a similar one for my One X. Then I found this Yesoo case. I got the gray one and really like it. Mine came without the branding on the back too which is nice.

Bringing this thread back on-topic.
I received my case today and threw it on real quick. I usually don't use cases, so this is for occasions (like on vacation) when I want a little protection from scratches.
This appears to be a first-party case from HTC, with the Product Name on the box listed as HTC HC C942 Hard Shell. It is translucent, as opposed to transparent, so on my Amber Gold M8 the color is definitely muted. It has HTC branding located directly over where HTC is on the back of the phone. The overall feel is good; exact match to the M8's curves with no seams that can be felt. It isn't slippery, but I wouldn't go so far as to call it soft touch.
Looks good! I have both the hoc translucent case and the yesoo case on the way! We'll see which one I like better

I ordered once cause it was cheap on eBay and I had one on my old M7. Will be interesting to see what it's like against the case that came with the M8 (which I quite like even though it's a little grippy when going into your pocket).
Nice to see some photos of it, gives me confidence in the product. Have you tried the SP that came with it?

I didn't even look at the screen protector, because I've been sold on glass screen protectors for years now. (Although I haven't purchased one for the M8 yet.)
It's hard to say for certain how the screen protector is without installing it, but laying it on the phone, it looks like it covers edge to edge vertically, but not horizontally, leaving maybe .2mm on each side.
I have a Zagg glass sp and I have a kaysone case which is same fit as yesoo case and it fits perfectly the screen bevlels in so it's not going to be an issue ,at least not with zagg
Yes, I have one copy.

Why the heck didn't the Sprint store have this when I bought my M8? They tried to sell me on some clunky $50 Otterbox or something. Ended up ordering a Diztronic TPU case for $10 from Amazon, but I hate how it hides how nice the phone looks. Nonetheless, I've have great luck with Diztronic stuff.

OK, got my one of these. First impressions, perfect fit - like to the mm. Thin but offers nice protection to the phone. Do I prefer it to the one that came with it in the box? I don't know. I prefer the fact I can get to the ports easily BUT I quite liked the fact the one in the box covered the ports so dust won't get in.
SP was easy to fit, and fits well, but it's fingerprint magnet - SO much more so than the screen naked. At least it's covered, though...
I'll give it a few days but might go back to the original case as it offers more grip

Hands down its the SuperShieldz one. I've tried Skinomi, Ilumeshield, and Spigen but they can't compare to the SuperShieldz. People have been asking me for pictures so I'll post them up this afternoon when I get home fromnrh gym. I did a quick review on Amazon which I'll link below, but it's great!

I found this one with good reviews but it looks like they're mostly from tablets.

You have to remember how they need to cut these in order to have them wrap correctly. It's not possible to have one that will cover anything without some compromises. I did take more pictures which I need to upload (I'll post them shortly). The screen protector does cover 99% of the screen unlike my Spigen which only covered ~70-80%

Fair enough. Maybe I'll buy these and the ones I linked to since they're both cheap and see which is better.
Great, no one has anything in stock and my phone is going to be here in a couple days. Not even the case I want is in stock, have to get two so one comes in time.

I'm glad I bought a bunch of different ones when I did because no they're flying off the shelves. My 2nd order of the SuperShieldz that I bought as a backup won't ship until today despite ordering it last week.

Yea, and imagine living in Canada, where shipping is expensive/long from the US and there's very limited choices in Canada ?
I should have ordered last week. Figured I'd have more time with Verizon lagging behind on the pre-orders.
I just ordered some XtremeGuard screen protectors because of the huge sale, no clue when they'll get here. There's nothing on Amazon with Prime that I can order, guess I'll have to keep the plastic on it that it comes with until I get the protectors.

You can ignore my slightly misaligned install. I was in a hurry (which is usually a bad idea when installing screen protectors), so it would be perfect if I installed my second one that came in the pack.
Here are some pictures:
Whatever yall do don't buy this crap.

I bought it from tmobile store cause it was all they had but it gets bubbles at top no matter what due to the installation process. Waste of $25 and neither tmo or the maker would give me refund

Can you use a case with the screen proctector? Does it go all the way to the edge?
Looks better than the Spigen!

Well considering I'm using my Tech 21 case in that picture yes you can. I've tested it with all of my cases (see my OP in this forum) it works fine. You do have to be care with some cases and lift their 'lip' so it sits on top of the protector when inserting your phone so it won't pull it up, but once you do that there are 0 issues. That's the +/- of having a E2E screen protector for the top/bottom and sides. I'll post more of my case reviews this evening so you can see how it fits in my 7-8 cases

All,
I got the supershieldz as well. Here are a few of my observations. The film has two protective coats that have to be removed. One is the sticky side that gets applied to the screen. The second is a pin film that is on the touch side. This one was a pain to remove. To get a good fit. I removed the side and place it on the phone then took the stick tabs and aligned the bottom and top to the phone. once it was aligned I worked from a corner to pull off the pink film. its a royal pain. the paper tab comes off at times but I made it work. Once the pink film is removed I used a card to smooth out the film or any bubbles. This film is very thin and feels sticky at first but this will go away after a few minutes of use. The film will mark up easily if you have long nails. Also, it does tend to bunch up if you put on a case. This was the case with the otterbox commuter, spigen tough, vrs case and UAG. But I was able to adjust them easily. The good news is that I have been using the phone for over a week now and no lifting. I had the s6 and used spigen and finally gave up. But this one is working well.

I agree, the install is a huge PITA, but the end result is well worth it. As I mentioned cases do work you just have to ensure their lip doesn't bunch it up when putting the phone in. If you read the directions you would've seen where it said gently press out the big bubbles with the included card wrapped in a microfiber cloth. I did this and didn't have any issues getting it to install correctly despite my slight misalignment.

Thanks for the tips guys, planning on getting a screen protector as well as the UAG case, it seems like they are due to ship mid-march.

I can confirm this. I bought this from tmobile a few days ago. I have bubbles at the top and the sides are already peeling up around the curved edges.
