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

Yeah... PDair's shipping options suck!.... I am also still waiting for mine

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?
hi,
i was wondering which case is the best for the nexus s?

it will be good if you can do a search before starting a new thread, if you look in the accessories thread, all the info you need is available.
Check out the videos Ploone posts. They're very informative videos of various cases for the Nexus S.
I personally use the Case-Mate Pop at the moment. The review is found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4auzR3OVB8
To this very day, I don't regret paying $34.99 for this. There are some flaws with it though, some of the rubber falls off. But I peeled it off and now its fine. The highlights of this case is DEFINITELY without a doubt the easiness to press on the sidebuttons and the grip that the case provides.
I'll be getting a Ringke case this week for a review. Some user experiences of the Ringke case are: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1026779

The Ringke case slides in and out of my pockets just fine. Some users think the back is slippery, while others think otherwise. It doesn't have a sticky texture or anything like that, just a matte-like texture. SGP also has a similar case to the Ringke, although I like the details of the Ringke case much better. Someone else posted a review of the SGP case.

I've got a video on the Active X and the Ringke. I find the Ringke to be smooth with a slight texture to it for minimal grip.
The Active X is decent, offers good protection but doesn't look particularly great.
I suggest skinomi.
Take a look at the feather case from incipio. It is not an extreme protection kind of armour but it's stylish and it has a surprisingly good look and feel. It can also can take a couple of drops (done it!)

I've not seen any tbh, I've ordered a cheap TPU case, which im just gonna "adapt"
Glad its only a cheap 1 from Ebay
Nice price for a cover/stand!

Any N7 tpu case will fit the 3g version.
Get a regular one, drill a hole. Bingo

Im use to samsung and apple phones so theres always been alot of choice, but for the nexus theres just a few brands im not familiar with.
Ive used an apple leather case, tech21 case, trident case, ballistic case, and incipio.
Im looking for a case that looks good and decent protection.
I plan to keep the phone in my pocket, and at work i tend to bump into things. Also since the phone is so big id like drop protection.
So out of all the cases out there which would you recomend and why?
Take a look at UrbanArmorGear or UAG
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
I would recommend Moko or Supcase. They are both pretty thick cases, and in my opinion, are pretty easy on the eyes
Cruzerlite TPU and TUDIA TPU cases are Mt favorites. They are slim, protect against drops and are great all around cases.
I just pick this case up from Amazon. It's a pretty nice case doesn't add too much bulk to the phone. It looks pretty good on the phone.

I like how theyre slimmer. Do you really think it would protect the nexus from a fall?
The UAG case turns has the horrible logo mixup haha, maybe they'll have other colors?
Havent seem the other cases, i look them up.
Also are thet Spigen cases any good?

I've got the Spigen Ultra Hybrid on my N6. Two drops from waist height onto asphalt, right on the corner. No damage to the phone or the case.
I was impressed considering the Galaxy S3 I had before I got the N6 fell off my bed, right on the corner, with an Otterbox Commuter case on it and the lcd was destroyed.
I'm sure the other heavier duty spigen cases will give you even more protection. I just got the Ultra Hybrid because it doesn't hide the white back I went through so much hell trying to obtain...
otterbox

Are any of these previously mentioned cases, grippy? Like the OP, I'm looking for some protection, but I'd like a case that's very grippy (almost rubber-like), resists fingerprints, isn't so thick that it messes up wireless charging, and doesn't cover up the Nexus logo (everyone leaves the moto one intact, but covers up the Nexus! Heresy!) Any cases out there like that, or that a pipe dream?

Which doesn't exist.
Okay no spigen now haha, seen some horrible reviews.
Anybody try the versus slim case or the versus thor case?
I'd look at the ringke fusion. Looks good, relatively protective and better grip.

Thor isn't out yet. I have it ordered, but yet to receive it.
This case is amazing, buy it I guarantee you that you will be more than happy with this. I will be uploading a review for this case tonight on my youtube channel.

I got the cruzerlite and I have the i-blason armor box. Both are awesome. Cruzerlite for when I want it slim and i-blason when I want that otter box type of protection, and it's pretty nice for 9 bucks.

I saw that one, and actually ordered it last week. It's scheduled for delivery on Monday. I'll let everyone know what I think of it when it arrives.
I bought the S6 edge white pearl so now looking for some cases under 10$ on eBay that:
1.Protect
2.Look cool
I was looking for Spigen Neo Hybrid but Im afraid of some replicas with no logo or with Stigen,Shpigen,Spigem,... logo
So I dunno
SPIGEN Neo hybrid
SPIGEN Tough armor
or
VERSUS Thor
VERSUS DADMA card slot
or
UAG
What do you think about those cheap 3$ cases like these:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Shock-Proof...hash=item1a0c10f419:m:mA_IChA62TbidSoZUT8s-Xw
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Shockproof-...hash=item280b973c62:m:mRQPvfD5oz3SgaWmiy_LRMg
That second link you posted (this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Shockproof-...hash=item280b973c62:m:mRQPvfD5oz3SgaWmiy_LRMg ) is an insanely good looking case. I'm highly tempted to get one myself.
Protection wise, the UAG is probably the best. Looking cool wise, personally, I think the Spigen and Versus cases are fugly.
I've been using a 99 pence case since I got mine, just a clear silicone one, and I've dropped it countless times with no damage. It seemed a shame to ruin such a gorgeously thin phone with a chunky case.
