I found one at a local walmart. $9 and very nice, leather, Fits perfect. The name on the front is called SYTECH. Looks like this one. Made for thin phones.

I am using the Touch OEM case.

Found a really nice belt clip case at Radio Shack:

Piel Frama
Piel Frama looks like they make one. I LOVE my 8525 PF case. Expensive but well worth every dollar!

clear case
Have a look in this one:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC-TOUCH-DIA...42413QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713.m153.l1262
It is cheap, fits well and doesn't affect the look of the diamond. Make sure you use a screen and body protector to avoid any scratches.
See this one a bit expensive but deserves the money:

I love keeping my phone in my pocket but I hate the scratches this compination seems to work fine at the moment.

It fits the US diamond? Do you have that version, you seem to be in UK...

Hi,
Yes i am in the UK and it fits great! Not sure if the dimensions on the US diamond are different?

Yes, they are quite different, hence the thread.

Please folks...cases for the U.S. Diamond (Yes, it IS different) and cases that can actually be purchased.

This Krusell case http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/store/productdetail.asp?productid=20348 fits my US Diamond just fine

I picked up a case for a blackberry at Best Buy that fits perfectly both in heighth and width. You can see them on this page ----> http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...0##39~~ncabcat0811006##0##1i&_requestid=52598 but since I picked it up in the store Im not sure which one is the right one as there are 3 sizes. Might be worth going down and checking it out if you have a BB near at hand.

Did you scope the ones on the link I posted? These are leather slide in cases with mag closure. I have seen the same cases at Fred Meyer and radio shack. They are for a blackberry as I said but the fit is perfect and they work well.

Thin Hard Case

I'm looking for a hard case for the n1. I would like to find the thinnest case possible so that it doesn't add bulk. Ive seen a couple for the iphone that ive liked, but I haven't really seen much for the n1. Any suggestions?

Yeah open your eyes..

I guess I should mention.... I found a few, but they all suck. Some are argyle, some have flowers printed on them, and a lot of them, have a raised square in the back. I'm guessing for a belt clip. None of these are all that appealing to me.

Well, that wasn't helpfull.
The best I found is the Crystal Case: http://www.overstock.com/Electronics/Google-Phone-Nexus-1-Vinyl-Crystal-Skin-Case/4582739/product.html?cid=123620&fp=F&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=12517446

that square thing annoys me as well.
I just ordered off of ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-Frosted-E...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item3a56f8d0fe
I will see what it looks like.

Yes that would change things drastically.
I got the TPU arguile one and its nice does a very good job of protection..
Just ordered http://cgi.ebay.com/5-EPIK-Case-Fro...Accessories?hash=item45f0974fb8#ht_3736wt_820 as well figured for 20 me and my girl could have a bunch of different colors if you are looking for a hard plastic I would say wait it out another week or 2 and seidios should be ready http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/csr3hnx1-bk.htm
They probably make the best hardcase I have ever seen.

I'm waiting on Seidio...these cases have always been quality thin protection for me!

does Seidio make gel cases too?

I ran across a hard case that was slim and would also fit into the existing sleeve but lost the website. I know its probably a bit OCD but thought it would be nice to have the extra added. Been looking for it all over but can't seem to find it again! Anyone run across this?

Both are a great & tight fit. Both are quality cases.
The clear hard case is perfect for those situations where you need hard protection. Most of the time, I'm using the gel case, as I like the feel with the N1.

Try contacting....

www.iskin.com
i have owned both their products before on my blackberries..
and they are legit and protect fine.
i have sent emails to both of them and they said if there is demand for them they will make them.

It's a catch 22 waiting for the demand. When the demand hit, they'll have to do all of the design/distribution legwork. By that time, there'll already be many other options.

I concur. I bought a black and a clear smoke off ebay and both fit nicely and the phone still fits in my existing case. Only issue would be if you get the new desktop dock for the phone, as these cases don't expose the contacts.

Like some of the other members I bought the "gel" case from ebay:
It's pretty thin and seems to be very durable and fits great on the N1. As stated in the above post, the case does block 2 of the 3 (the 2 on the left side of the USB port) contact points on the bottom of the device.

PDair Leather Pouch Vs Sena ultra slim pouch

Hey guys i have found these two as the best for me.
Sena Ultra Slim Pouch
PDair Vertical Leather pouch
but i can't decide between them. i want to know if any of you had previous experiences and which one is the thickest or bigger in general as i don't see dimensions.
Also i am between the following as additional protection:
1) regular cheap screen protectors
2) full body invinsible shield
3) martin fields
if i buy the regular screen protectors are they going to do any work or nothing at all ? just a bunge of plastic onto my screen. In addition i think the invinsible shield is the best protection of all but does it reduce the capacitive screen feedback ????
Thanks for any help

Is this the cheapest place you found the Sena Ultra Slim? I quite like that one as it isnt too bulky and appears to protect the whole phone. Think i'd probably buy one if it was a little cheaper

well i found it on ebay too but i haven't searched along before i decide which one. but yes the main reason i liked it is the size. that's why i want to know how much thicker is the pdair one

I was about to order the Sena Ultra Slim for the Nexus 1, but I am afraid it
won't be a perfect fit due to the chin?
Well, Sena replied to my query with following few days back:

I got the same exact reply from them

I've bought a Sena Nexus One case and the Desire fits very nicely. It does stick out a few millimetres at the top, but the whole point is screen protection, surely? The case is nicely tight, and beautifully made with internal stitching, so the width of the case is only a couple of millimetres more than the phone. It's basic in the sense that you push the phone out from the bottom, and there's no toggles to pull it out, magnetic catches etc., but who cares 'cos it looks very classy - more like a small cigar case than a phone holder!
Incidentally, delivery from Sena is really quick and efficient, and the discount code posted up here somewhere is still valid

just received my sena ultra slim case and its a perfect fit very happy and not bulky

Sena Ultra Slim Pouch is near perfect fit! but open edges
PDair Vertical Leather pouch is more bulky and can take more damage but not as nice as the Sena. I also dont like the belt clip on the PDair you can easily squeeze your Desire out and have it go flying
Personal vote is the Sena

+1 I wouldnt mind seeing this too. I found the discount code too, i'll probably end up buying it but want to see what it looks like first if possible.

Would somebody mind posting a pic or two of the phone in the Sena case please?
Also maybe a helping hand in finding that code everyone's talking about?

Search google for 'sena discount code' its the first result. Thats the code I tried, worked when I got to checkout but didnt follow the order through as im waiting for the specific desire one. Wouldnt mind seeing a picture though to see how it fits.

Cheers, Matt. I think I'll be getting the Sena Ultra Slim. Would just like to see how it looks before I order it, now.
Anybody care to oblige?

The dimesions are near identical so id image it'd be a good fit. GSM arena give the following dimensions:
Nexus one: 119*59.8*11.5 mm
Desire: 119*60*11.9 mm
Still, it'd be nice to see a pic to make sure.

Sleeve (like for Nexus One)

I very much liked the little neoprene sleeve from the Nexus One.
I can't seem to find one for the Skyrocket.
Has anybody been able to find a sleeve that fits this phone?

Nobody? Based on the views, I assume there is interest.
Any other phones with similar dimensions that have a sleeve that fits?

I can't say for certain but the HD2 used to come with a sleeve, the dimensions might be similar enough for it to fit in it. You could probably find one of those for cheap on eBay.

Sadly, the HD2 is too small. the Skyrocket is huge ...

Nobody found a solution?

sorry. I posted a link to the GNote. I found a sleeve for the GNote on ebay. I am sure you could find one for the Skyrocket on ebay?

Otterbox has the just rubber sleeve(Impact series) and it still helps keep the phone protected good and you can also find the not so expensive ones at the little carts in mall sometimes. I have had all of them! Took the Damn defender back because the front screen cover built in was garbage and taking it in and out was a *****! The cheap one works but not as good as the Otterbox impact! Plus I can pull battery quick if I need to! Otterbox impact!

Yeah it was a little up on the price but I've really found no alternatives that work for me. I've seen a few other armbands on Amazon but man are they fugly! I can't say for sure if the UAG would fit, but judging by the pictures of the cases from both websites the look to be right around the same size and bulk.
The best option I think would be to go down to a local Best Buy that has them in stock and see if the UAG case will fit. That's what I did with my Commuter case.

My bad. I didn't ever consider that when I replied. I will say that my local running store carries that particular armband brand, they just didn't have the i-30 in stock and really couldn't tell me if they were coming with their next shipment. Since I bought it from Best Buy I've seen it being carried at a few other fitness shops around my area.

Reading some of the comments it seems a bit tight with S4/Ottterbox type cases.
This one should be a little bigger.

according to their website, that one is longer, but tighter.
it's meant mainly for g note without any case, or smaller phones with case

so I got the TuneBelt one (AB85) and it fits the S4 with UAG.
actually, I think there is even too much space left, I'm a little afraid not to pop out

good alternative to slimmer cases

Agree with you on the somewhat bulky look. I've purchased other slimmer armbands and always have to change all the keys off my keyring, so this is nice there is so much space. And looks pretty durable. Thanks for posting this one!
