Has anyone seen this case or maybe own it?
It's looking pretty badass, cheap, slim.

Also, what cases would you recommend? I just have one of those gel cases that came out when the N1 did. Looking to step it up a bit.
Seems to only protect the back, is that right?

It looks like it. The pictures on the website are really bad.
Badass case indeed.
that looks really cheap to me...
from the picture it doesn't even look like the holes line up?
i say go with this one instead: http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/csr5hnx1-bk.htm
it looks nice but too shiny and kinky fro me. I just ordered the blue one and paid an extra £12.50 for special delivery. They reckon 2-4 days. They are based in Hong Kong and am in London.
we'll see

back and around the sides, thats why they are also pushing for the screen protectors
Nice, I was looking at the Seidio Snap. It looks a little bit better. I liked the smooth and simple back of the Ultra-Case however.

I bought this last week. I hope they also make their iPhone cases fit on the Nexus One.
Just bought one. I like the looks of it.
i pass..looks like a fingerprint magnet. I have a hard enough time keeping the screen clean.
Even better is this case I bought http://cimousa.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=22_23&products_id=112
Is it easy to put on and take out? I ask coz i change the battery rather frequently.
can someone post up some pics when they get it? The ones on the website are absolutely terrible.

How thick is that case though? I want the thinnest case possible without going the zagg/bodyshield route personally.
Thx for the pics!
Just an FYI. Ultra Case's "The One" case can be found on ebay for around 5 bucks instead of the ridiculous 20 they want on their web site. It wouldn't surprise me if this "black" case is on ebay too.

Yeah I just checked and they have a bundle with a car charger and screen protector for a couple dollars more than the case itself.

Thats not the same case from Ultra-case I should be getting the real one this week and I will post some pics. The one in your link is a soft plastic and the Ultra-case is a hard plastic snap-on that only covers the back of the phone and also doesn't cover really any of the bottom, look again. http://www.ultra-case.com/product.php?pID=449

The point I was making is ultra case is selling a $3 case for 20 bucks and it wouldn't surprise me if their "Black" case shows up on ebay for a few bucks too. I already have a nice, blue hard shell case that offers more than just covering the phone's back for 20 bucks.
Just received this from mobilefun. Decided to replace their clear "nexus one" case with this. This one is much better and the same price.
Its a solid plastic cover that has a back and front section that clip together encasing the phone. All the buttons,etc are nicely cut out of the plastic.
I also like the way it protrudes over the front to protect the front. All in all a good purchase.

how much? :O
i just ordered one of those on ebay for about £2 lol
what one of those cheap rubber ones off ebay, this is much better than that rubbish lol
no, one of those plastic things that clip together over the phone, just like the one you linked

Well i`m not going to loose sleep over £8 difference.
Looks a nice case, but..... Those cheap rubber ones on E-Bay are a lot more resilient than the hard plastic ones. Speaking from experience the rubber cases, or more than likely the Gel ones, now absorb impact a lot better than hard plastic. My sons 3gs had a hard plastic shell on it, he dropped it from his top blazer pocket, and the screen shattered. I used to own a touch HD which was always in a cheap e-bay gel case, and must have dropped this 5-6 times with no ill effects! You can get some great cases on amazon very cheap:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0038A5AF4/ref=oss_product
This is the case I currently use and I'm very happy with it.
Also I use these screen protectors:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003JCUKGK/ref=oss_product
They have now gone up to £2.90 delivered for 5! and are very good quality. I bought them when they were 1p + £1.45 delivery.
Recently got 2 HTC genuine screen protectors from Play when they were £4.99 for the pair, and they are crap compared to the Amazon ones lol
Problem with those gel cases though... they feel horrible in your hand.
Had one on my HD2... couldn't stand using the thing, but then conversely didn't want to get it scratched.
But then... for me... it's more about scratch resistence than dropping it... I have insurance for that!
bought one just like this one last week. thought it was rubber as thatswhat it said. it broke before i could put it one. mad me think what it would be like if i actually got it on and dropped it.
Most of the cases on mobile fun can be found for about £2-£4 on ebay
I bought a great case from ebay for £2.64, quality wise its miles better than the mobile fun case I paid £10 for and it came with a fitting screen protector!
At the end of the day, they all are made in the same country most of them coming from them probably coming from the same manufacturer, just because you're paying £10 doesn't mean the quality is any better.
There plenty of tacky ones on ebay but these are easy enough to avoid.

Guys,
Just get the original Htc Desire TPU Case TP C520. I attach the pictures for those who wants to check the detail before purchasing. You can get it from expansys-usa at US $17.99
Based on my opinion:
+ Perfectly fit.
+ Perfect grip on hands.
+ Volume button side is really good.
- Very glossy.
- Catch the dust & scratches easily.
It's the most perfect fit of TPU case, but the glossy finish make this case looked ugly when it gets the dust & scratches. I don't think it's worth $17.99. If you want really good protection, I think OtterBox Commuter Series Case is a better option at $34.95
It's ok for its price imho, i got one too and it saved me many times tho i don't think it's a great, erm, development tool...
Looks quite nice. But ibget the impression this will be moved to Desire Accessories soon

btw Wrong Section mate
I too bought one of these recently from Play.com for £9.99 and really impressed.
I was using a cheap one from ebay before and this one is so much better quality and isn't as thick so doesn't add as much bulk to the phone.
Plus the power button is cut out and there hole for the headphones is bigger than on the cheap one.
Also the plastic is more flexible around the volume buttons which makes it easier to press than with the cheap ebay one.

Dimensions of tpu case increased after 4 months
I bought it four months ago. The length of the case has increased by 2-3 mm. NOT WORTH IT.
Have been using mine for about a year now and still love it. It fits perfectly, volume buttons are great and all the holes are big enough. + it is not THAT shiny and its color fits the phone
I am very happy with mine which I bought off eBay for $5. Screen protector included still hasn't started peeling off, so for that cheap I really have nothing to complain about.
Official HTC TPU case is excellent. Perfect fit, not too bulky..and cheap too !
If you're in the UK you can get them from Play.com for only £6.99....bargain !
ive had this cover since last christmas and i have to say its thr best thing i have ever bought for my phone, the amount of scratches and dents this has saved me from is amazing, its even stopped the screen taking damage when dropped face down, i would 100% recomend this to everyone

After 2 broken screen digitizers... well i prefer the glossy looks than a broken screen! and the grip is awesome!
Hello all,
Just wanted to share my experience with the Nillkin case (found on eBay, lots of sellers selling it). It comes in around $12 with free shipping. I got the clear black one.
It comes in a decent packaging, and it includes the case, screen protector, and a screen cleaning dongle.
The case itself is actually very nice. The back is actually a sandy/matte texture, and the side has grooves on it to enhance your grip on the phone. It doesn't add much dimensions to it, as it feels still relatively the same size as it is naked. It has openings for the headphone jack, USB port, camera/LED, mic, and speaker. The power button and volume controls doesn't have an opening, but you can still easily press on it with the outlined placement on the case. Speaking of this, I actually found that after putting on the case, it makes it easier for me to reach the power button to unlock the phone, as it increases the area you can use to push it. Also, it contours to the camera, so even if you rest it on its back, you will be resting on the case and not the hump from the camera.
The fit of the case is not perfect, as it is meant for the international version of the One X. It still fits...just some parts you will find it to off by a few millimeters, which is especially noticeable on the camera, and speaker, but good news, it doesn't block it. Other than that, its a very good fit, and doesn't attract too much lint in my pocket. Also, the case wraps around the front edges, so even when you put the phone face down, you will not be placing it on the screen (unlike the Nillkin hard-case).
The screen protector is a different story. I'm not sure if it came with the wrong one or not, but its very small, and doesn't cover the whole screen...at all. Its also a finger print magnet, and you would have to wipe it down a few times a week.
Overall, I'm happy with the case, but will probably replace the screen protector down the line with something else.
i have their hardshell case and i must say its one of the best cases Ive bought for any phone ive owned. Unfortunately , just like your TPU version , it is meant for the international one x so it doesnt fit perfectly. Its not awful but due to that I am using my diztronic case most of the time.
Can we get a big pic of the back just so we can see how opaque the material is please. Just want to see how strong the logo shows if at all. But thanks for the review.
Screen protectors are made smaller to fit curved displays
Most of the screen protectors for curved displays are cut smaller to prevent bubbles at the edges. This has been confirmed by the screen protection manufacturers in the world. Don't be surprise if you find they are smaller for HTC One X, Samsung Galaxy S3, and other curved display phones.

Thanks for that back pic bluerex! I may just go for this one.
Hey i just looked at the top pics again of the screen protector! LOL!!!!! That thing is waaaaayyyyyy offff. That can't be right haha.
I too picked up a clear Nillkin TPU case for my AT&T HOX. I personally must say that it is BY FAR my favorite TPU case for the HOX so far. I am a major cell phone case whore too, btw. LOL
If this Nillkin case doesn't fit the AT&T HOX right I certainly can't tell. It looks perfectly fine to me. I especially like how it makes pressing the power button SO much easier than any other generic TPU case I've bought. It actually makes it SUPER EASY to press the power button whereas other TPU cases didn't seem to line up quite right making me have to try to press the power button more than 3+ times each time I lock or unlock it. After liking this case so much I went ahead & decided to order the Super Shield case as well as the hard plastic fashion case - both by Nillkin on eBay. Can't wait to try those out too!

How does it fit around the sides? The case I bought was very loose around the sides and made the volume rockers impossible to press. And the top wasn't contoured enough to press the power button easily.

The Nillkin case is actually once of higher quality cases that I have gotten from eBay. The fit is great as tech mentioned.
Tech: the screen protector u recieved, is it way too small for the screen as well?
I bought one myself on EBay and couldn't be happier. Excellent looks, fit and quality. It feels very nice in the hand as well. I don't think I'd ever switch to another case.

I actually ended up finding an even better clear TPU case on Amazon. It's pretty similar to the Nillkin but this one is made by Diztronic and it's on Amazon. It's got a matte finish on the back and cut outs for ALL the ports. Plus it's made specifically for the AT&T One X not the international one. Just Google 'Diztronic matte back TPU' and you should be able to find it on Amazon.

Saw that and it looks good! Only thing is I wish there were not cutouts for the volume and power. I'm not into that depression where the cutouts are when you reach for the buttons But I do like that it is actually made for the AT&T One X because I hate how the speaker and camera are off alignment on basically every other case.
Nillkin TPU case clear black
hello all,
Can i ask a question please? What is the difference between an international htc one x and a htc one x AT&T?
I have an htc one x with a quad-core processor and tegra 3 which is fully unlocked version, i want to know its version meaning if its international or not. I really love a tpu nillkin case. Please search this case on ebay :
Type ( Nillkin TPU Soft Cover Case +LCD Guard HTC One X LTE Endeavor Edge Supreme S720e ) from the ebay search bar. Want to know if this case is for the international htc one x or for the AT&T version.
Also I'm a bit confused about the HTC one x LTE version.
Please help me out. Many Thanks
I've gone through 4 stores now and haven't found a case I like. I want a soft one that has a grippy, rubber texture so that it won't slip around where I put it down in my car. The only one I've found so far that feels right is this one, but it only comes in "clear" which is really translucent white.
On amazon, I like the look of this one, and this one, but can't tell if they are rubbery.
If anyone has any suggestions that come from personal experience actually feeling the case, please let me know. I'd appreciate it.
Edit:I just bought the rooCASE, because it says it has free returns. I'll update if I'm happy with it, but I'd still love to hear suggestions.
Diztronic makes a great black tpu case that is fairly grippy. I have one for sale if you want to give it a try. I decided to stick with my navy samsung case instead.
Pm me if your interested. Its in brand new condition.

Thanks for the reply. Is it this one? I'll keep it in mind in case the one I bought isn't good, but I doubt it would be worth it for you to sell it to me for less than the $10 it would cost me from amazon. Thanks though.

Looking for a replacement door for exactly the same thing myself. Don't like cases so I ordered a replacement battery cover from China hoping that will be less slippery:
http://m.aliexpress.com/item/922678823.html
They have brushed aluminium ones too, but I feared those would be thicker and stop the phone from fittin in docks.
I received the replacement door and I'm pretty happy with. Feels much better in the hand. Like the matte finish better than the original shiny one too.
Only issue is that it's thicker. Which means that it doesn't fit in my dock.
I bought a carbon fiber looking one and it actually has some texture to it.
It is thicker than the stock battery cover but I think everything is because that one is so thin.
The carbon fiber one looks nicer, fits flush and has a little bit of texture.
Not sure it would do what you need it to, which is stick to your car.
Why don't you buy one of those pads you lay down and it allows any phone to stick to it?

Pics of the battery cover that I ordered are on the site:

Still love it. Feels just so much better. Looks more stylish too with a proper black battery cover. I went for the black on black cover on my "black" S4.
The lattice bit is glued to a plastic frame. I've seen other patterns too.
Any other newer options?
The carbon fiber one I bought I am not too thrilled with.. its pretty thick compared to stock.
I really liked the Galaxy nexus battery cover, it was textured and non shiny (no finger prints)

Any problems with signals with this back cover? Nfc. Lte. Wifi?
Sent from my SGH-I337M using xda app-developers app
No, no problems with reception. It's just a plastic/rubberized back cover.
Only difference is that it's a millimeter thicker, so with cases and docks it's probably not going to fit. Which is rather annoying cause I like to use a desktop cradle for charging at night. I have trouble hooking up the phone in the dark Ordered myself some wireless charging items though so that should be solved soon too.
Sounds like you want a silicone case, they're the grippy nonslip rubbery ones, stacks of them of all types on Amazon or eBay.
just a thoughtm have u considered plastidip? Just take off the back cover and spray it on.
heard of people doing plasti deep and it scrapes off after a while

Good point, im going to try it. haha. Ive been wrapping mine in vinyl. time to twist it up
anyone have any other ideas for a back cover?
The carbon fiber one was not as good as I expected. not much texture to it, doesnt really improve grip or the slippery feel from stock, also its a bit thicker then stock cover.
The plastic dip will be rubbed off, the corners will fray after you put your phone in your pocket a couple of times. I really really wish it worked, since the feel is amazing, but due to the amount of friction the back cover encounters everyday, the rubber will rub off soon enough, guaranteed.
