looking for a flip case or just one to cover the back? unfortunately there's not much choice with our phones
I have this one, it's cheap and pretty good
I use a black leather flip case by PDAir. Costs roughly $28, great look & feel. I've used PDAir cases for my earlier WM phones, so I'm happy with it.

Similar here, using S CURVED GEL CASE COVER FOR HTC Incredible S. Looks, feels nice and it doesn't make phone bulky. For screen I went with cheapest Matte Anti Glare protector. Survived a couple of drops (~2m) on tiles and still works like new (so I guess this would rate as Good )
Ive got the S one too, its got good grip, the sides are a bit rough so theres great grip.
It kind of breaks it up on the back too, I think it looks a bit weird without the case
It adds better feedback for the buttons too
I had This, very nice
I have the case mate barely there,I guess it won't protect very much, but it came with my phone when I bought it (used).
For screen protectors I use HTC Original ones bought on ebay.de (about 3eur 2protectors) they are nice.

It funny because I can't use the phone without it, I think it's too thin/slippery maybe because I had the phone with the cover since I bought it...
Otterbox defender.
Next best thing to Nintenium. Not cheap though.
I use the casemate barely there cover and a HTC original screen protector too. Reasonably good protection against scrapes and scratches, no extra bulk but won't protect against a hard knock or a drop I reckon.

just the same as me.
But I am thinking of buying HTC S510 pouch too.I saw one of a friend's HTC HD2 and it was amazing.
For prospective buyers from England, I got me a" iGadgitz Dual Tone Black Durable Crystal Gel Skin" from Amazon
Cheap cheerful, pretty solid and has a screen protector included. Great!
None! Thats the best one.. especially for the inc s.. Give thx to the surface. 1year using, Nov scratches.

I am using an Otterbox Commuter case.. The back is very similar to the device itself, but it adds a little bit of bulk to it.. (not much though). This case protects your phone against pretty much everything except for water (offcourse). I even dropped my phone once of the stairs and you couldn't even see it. Another good thing about this case is the fact it has two layers: rubber and a plastic case around it. The positive thing about this: the rubber also protects the earphone jacket and micro USB-plug against dust etc.. That was one of my main reasons to go with this case.. not the cheapest though, but it is excellent! Also comes with a screenprotecter btw..

They put protector tint on my ex galaxy s III back door. It was excellent job.
Is it worth using it instead of a case for body protection?

In the Galaxy Note 10.1 forums, many complain that the Zagg feels terrible with the rubbery S Pen tip. Drags a lot, they recommended those crystal clear ones like those from ClearPlex. I dont think they have one for the note II yet tho.

There are a number of them available from Amazon. The Galaxy Note Zagg/BodyGuardz had the same issue.

I hope best skins ever make one for note 2 I allways use them much better than zagg and cheaper.
If I'm not mistaken, doesn't the user manual recommend NOT using a screen protector? Something about it interfering with the S-Pen.
But yeah, I'd go with something other than the invisibleshield, as stated above it adds a lot of friction (in my experience) and you get a sort of orange-peel effect.
FYI looks like they ship 10/24-10/26 for those who were waiting

Ok, call me crazy, but I find myself wondering how much use I will get out of the pen. I am used to android and navigating with my fingers. As well my ipad too.
What about the zagg HD it feels just like glass compared to normal or anti-glare zagg I don't think it will feel too rubbery. I've had zagg since my hero days and I love them. I'm waiting for US release of GN2 and I'm pretty sure I'm going to get zagg HD for it as long as one comes out for it. I'll report back and let you guys know how it is.

In my experience the Xtremeguard quality was less than stellar. I've tried a few wet application urethane manufacturers and found the Xoskins were excellent with good customer support, but they are more expensive.

As an FYI, the skin protectors are good against scratches not drops. I know it's common sense but I had a perfectly self applied zagg shield on my Nexus One and it fell off my night stand and the screen broke. After that I went out and bought a Seidio Surface Case and haven't looked back.
They had a Zagg skin on the display model of the original note I tried out at Target and it really didn't work very well with the S-pen, as stated too much drag, felt awful. Something between that feel and the too slick feel of the naked screen would be perfect. I thought I had that right after applying the Spigen Ultra Crystal, it was just right initially but it became as slick as the glass after a little finger oil accumulated.
Keep away from this guys the zagg for note2 really not good i hv bought one from bestbuy before yesterday and i have regret to buy, toutching is not good, all not good at all, i just west 27 usd for nothing, ill go and buy sgp from amazon

Hi!
Has anybody tried that one out yet? It's said to be quite durable and protective, but it's somewhat expensive compared to the regular screen protectors out on the market (as are all tempered glass screen protectors). I am wondering whether it will fit with the Spigen SlimArmor case which I am getting as well.
Here's the link to their site: panzerglass . eu
Sincerely,
vPro
can this even be purchased outside of Europe? I am unable to find them anywhere other than direct from their website...emailed to ask for additional info/photos of the G2 version -- will see if I hear anything back!
I have no idea. Anyway I'm picking one up once I have money for it. Then I'll give feedback on it

No, I bought a Spigen SGP Slimarmor case from Amazon uk. Got it delivered really fast, Spigen has superb customer service. Same goes for Panzerglass btw.
Well, I tried to install it this morning. And it didn't go that well. I had a hard time aligning it and when I took it off, I tended to put my nail under the screen protector in order to remove it. Then I contacted panzerglass and within 10 minutes they answered me. They told me that I damaged the screen protector by putting my nail under it :/ Anyway then he told me that he would send me another one (and I don't know if I am going to pay for it or not). Check attachment for picture of how it looked .
Feeling: This glass feels extremely good. It leaves NO fingerprints behind and is crystal clear. It doesn't seem to add much bulk, and it goes perfectly with my Spigen SGP case. It is, however, cut too small for the screen so it is (more than) case friendly.
Got my UAG HTC One M8 NAVIGATOR (white) case today. This is actually my 3rd UAG case, I had the AERO (blue) one on my HTC One M7, and I have a the SCOUT (black) one on my work Iphone 5.
Anyways, much like the previous 2 I really like the case, the quality feels good and it feels nice to hold. On the M8 case they put these 4 little grooved bumpers (2 on each side) that give you a slightly better grip which is a nice touch.
This is the first time I've gotten a white case, I'm interested to see how dirty it gets. I was concerned it might look a bit weird with the gun metal color, but since the only part you really see is the speaker grills it looks fine.
My only complaint so far if you notice on the picture the cutout for the main rear camera isn't centered. There is a small silver ring around the camera lens and the top right part of it seems to be covered. Maybe UAG did a bad job with the mold? Or maybe my case was poorly cut. I've sent an email to UAG but what I've seen in the past they are pretty bad at responding to emails. I will update this post if I hear anything.
Anyways for people who like UAG cases, this is another good case for a great phone.
P.S. (knock on wood) I've never tested the drop a ability of these cases, well at least on purpose, I dropped my Iphone from about 3 feet and it was fine, but have no desire to purposely test it.
Would you mind posting a pic of the front of your phone in the case? I'm curious to see how close the black of the case looks with the gunmetal.

Here you go, not the greatest photo but there isn't much to see on the front, its just a black boarder all the way around.
That's perfect. The pictures on the uag website all show white m8's, and I wanted to see the black border with the gunmetal. I can be picky when it comes to a case.

I had a similar issue with my UAG but within a week it now looks perfectly centered. I can see the chrome ring around the whole lens. The tapered flash cutout is a big improvement over the M7 UAG case.

Honestly, your going to be hard pressed to find a case this slim with this type of protection, It did not add much thickness at all.

I don't see any noticeable difference with the case on and off taking a photo. I did get an email from UAG last night though, they said they are looking into it. I have noticed over the past day though the fit around the lens is getting slightly better though. Maybe it just needed to be worked in.

IR blaster works great for me. Another plus for me with this case is having the indentations and feet on the back of it. I use those to hold the phone. My otter box has a smooth back and can make the phone feel slippery at times.
Awesome thanks for the response

I'd love to see pics of that clear maverick case. Got the gold m8 and have been contemplating ordering it.
Just picked up the unicorn beetle pro (the otter box level one ) and just wanted to say it is a great case, I'm not much for writing reviews but can answer any questions if anyone else was looking at this case. It seems super durable, it's thick but reasonably so, the ir /power button has a clear cover so it still functions. The rubber sides are much harder than an otter box and don't pull on and off when you pull it from your pocket like some other cases.

I'll add to the positive reviews of this case. I ordered it early through Amazon so I too got it at a great price figuring I had very little to lose. I'm extremely pleased with most aspects of this case. I'm coming from an M7 with a UAG case so I have something good to compare this case to. Best things about this case are:
-built-in screen protector with tacky back. this keeps the plastic protector in constant contact with the screen so not air gaps like LifeProofs iPhone case
- completely covered plastic power button. much better IMO than UAG's slotted rubber button because it provide tactile feedback
-port covers. keeps the dust out
-very little metal is exposed. the camera lenses on back have the typical case protection but I really like the plastic around the speaker grills. looks good and looks like it'll provide adequate protection from most anything short of extreme sports
The only thing that I don't like is that the back of the case has a slight curve to it versus the flat back of the UAG case. But I figure this is why the Unicorn Beetle doesn't feel so bulky.
I was planning on only using this case for when I'm doing yard work, hiking, or playing in the park but I'm happy enough with it at this point that I'll likely leave it on most of the time. It's a great value, even at the current price. I will watch the price closely on this and probably pick up another one if the price drops.
Here we go!
I popped out the plastic screen cover and removed the residue. Case still fits great with my Nillkin Glass screen protector!
The other case is the regular Unicorn Beetle so you can see the size difference.
Sorry delete
Yeah built in screen protector is not that bad but doesn't work well with a wet apply style below it as I had one on mine , they stick together. I'm going to order a glass one and pop out the plastic eventually but the built in is good enough for now

Gestures
Got the case today, and seems like a pretty stout case. I removed my clear plastic as I have a SpartanShield screen protector on it. Customized it a little to my needs... Added mesh on the speakers. It didn't mess with the FFC much, but has a slight difference. I need this mesh as I'm a machinist, and have always had to dig out metal shavings. My main concern is since I've installed this case I havent had much luck with getting gestures to work. It seems like sometimes it doesn't work at all, and other times it seems fine. Didn't know of anyone has had this experience yet.
I haven't had any issues with the touchscreen, but I have a glass screen protector. Loving this case so far. Very well made. Way better than my Otterbox Commuter.

Did you remove the plastic screen protector before applying the case? If not, did the glass screen protector cause a gap between the plastic around the speakers?
