Has anyone bought one of these? I was going to buy one just to protect the phone until I find a case that is meant for the desire and has some quality to it. Just want to know what its like really.
Thanks
Now with pictures

Excellent thanks, just bought it.
Bought to say. I have one and left feedback about it lastnight.
Any pics with device guys kindly!?
Lining?
Ordered one as well. Will post my review.

Read the feedback and most say it was great for the price. One person gave it neutral feedback saying it was a tight fit. My concern would be if its that tight a fit whats the inside lining (if any made from? Is it likely to scratch and leave marks or cause wear on the phone by constantly pulling it in a out?
Is it hard or soft case? It seems to be hard in the photo (or at least a little), but I'm not sure. I'm looking for a hard one

Waiting for it to be delivered but should be here tomorrow. I'll let you know when I get it.
Nice soft leather case - very happy with it
Got mine today.
Awesome case for the money
mine finally arrived. it is very snug, which is good, nice fit and for its price its pretty good. overall I wanted something smaller really, i'll prob buy the sena ultra slim but this will do until that arrives.

Nice case. Good price, speedy delivery. Not too tight on the phone. Just perfect.
Has anyone got any pictures on how this fits? and do you think a desire with a Flexishield skin would fit?

I personally dont think it'd fit in the case with one of those one, they seem to add a bit of bulk too it. The phone is already quite snug without putting one of those on. I dont have a camera but still have my old X1, will see if I can get some pics up.
I took some pictures of the phone in/with the case to get an idea of what its like. The phone is in alot tighter than the pictures show as you cant even wiggle the phone whilst its in the case.
Hope these help

Does the job nicely but don't expect high quality. Superb however for £2.90 and only took 2 days for delivery.
Just an update a couple of weeks on. I have noticed that the pull that lifts the phone from out if the case is beginning to mark the battery cover as it sits inside the tight fitting case. Might not be worth it after all.

Have had the same thing on mine after only a few days, but as the mark seems seems pretty irrevocable I'm going to stick with it. Can always buy a new battery cover if it bugs me too much.
Hi
Anyone here got this case? Looks good, what is the material like? they say its not silicone but still flexible?

Okay, just though what the heck for £2.64 , got this one on ebay, sounds the same, will let everyone know what its like once I get one

Can you let me know how the DC Mugen one goes? I'm a big fan of their cases and they said they weren't going to make any so I ended up buying one from somewhere else.
I went for the Epik cases when I got my Nokia 5800 and they protected the phone amazingly. It wasn't too big on the phone and bounced well lol. Really protected the phone.
Ah. Despite buying one from another company, I'm going to get this.
Cheers

i ordered one of these today to replace my nexus gel cover. it looks like an improvement, will see when it arrives
FWIW - the Nexus one case I purchased as an interim case whilst waiting on something better to come out appears to be an Epik case.
The case I got is the one with the red Nexus One badge on the back.
Cost about 3 quid off ebay...
I just ordered a Mugen Epik specifically for the Desire - I bought the TPU one.
Will give you the rundown once I've recieved it.
Anyone know if there is a totally transparent one available in this type. The only ones that I could find are for the Nexus One.
Reviews of this one (any colour!) would be good though, looks a slightly bulky in the pictures but I'm guessing it will be the same as the silcone cases.
Got this one today.Am very happy with it. £2.28 delivered

How long did the delivery take? Any chance of pictures? The ones on eBay seem out of proportion for some reason, making the case look a bit bulky.

i ordered it on 3rd May, so just over a week. it's not bulky, it looks the same as the nexus gel cover i've been using for a month when fitted to me.
i'll see if i can sort some pics out later.
the screen protector that comes with it is one of the ones with the 2 tabs to apply, also comes with a cloth.

Thanks for that. I currently have a Nexus cover too. Think I will go ahead and order it. I did actually want a TOTALLY clear (Desire specific) case but as of yet, all those that I've seen are either tinted or coloured.

Nice one. Your pictures do the case far more justice than the ebay pics. The smoked black is starting to grown on me.
@str355: That's an actual 'hard case' isn't it? I do prefer the 'soft' ones.
mistake.... oops
Mine arrived yesterday (DC Mugen), it's a perfect fit for the Desire.
Just a tad bit annoying trying to unlock the phone, you have to press on the button harder with the skin on, and there's less of a 'feel' as to whether the button is pressed down or not.
Anyone got one of these yet, and if so whats it like, very very cheap, looks like a cheaper version of the SGP, but its in stock and in the UK

There is a slightly cheaper one without the screen protector:

GEL CASE FOR SAMSUNG i9000 GALAXY S - BLACK (#190408229528)

Problem with a seller with that many feedback is, you can go months with purely negative feedback before it affects the % significantly.
The guy's a drop shipper. I actuallly bought a couple of Galaxy Portal cases and some SGS screen protectors from him last week. Had no problems with delivery on the stuff I ordered from him. I asked about the silicone SGS cases at the time and he told me he was currently out of stock - that's why I ended up buying the Zenus case.
ok, well ill order one up at £3.50 you cant really go wrong
If anyone prefers amazon,
heres a link to the item I bought mine from (it was despatched on Monday)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003U6VTOC/ref=oss_product
I ordered one of those yesterday and received an email through to say it had been despatched, hopefully it'll arrive soon.
Just a quick follow up to this, it arrived after a couple of days and for the money the case is great. It fits well and isn't too thick and does it's job of making the phone a lot less slippy.
The screen protector shipped with it was a Terrapin one which is not bad although the edges didn't stick brilliantly.
One thing of note for a few phone calls people were complaining that I sounded muffled and finally I checked the mic and the hole for it in the case was cut but it hadn't gone all of the way through, no wonder people had trouble hearing me.
lol, yea my gfs turned up, i ordered mine the day after here and 3 extra days later it isnt here lol.
hers like you said was a really good fit, surprising for the money, all slots lined up and for £3 even the camera cutout has a small bevel
really good value for money, but if you want a decent screen protector dont buy this one because its included, imho its crap, well compared to my martin fields
The wife got one of these for her galaxy..she thinks its ok, however she is going to buy a jelly one as well as this one gets dusty and covered in little hairs (so she tells me!)
Also the screen protectors edges don't stick very very well.
She'll keep you posted on the jelly one (but its coming from hong kong..so it may be a while!)
as far as im aware its pretty much jelly anyway, i would think the real 'wobbly' ones lol would attract more lint etc

yea it looks great, and even better when you put them on the phone.
However, do you know if these i9000 case going to be compatible with samsung Vibrant
it's of the same phone design, no difference in the buttons cut outs
the only difference is in the front facing camera which some of the USA carriers are missing
those cases doesn't cover the front anyways, so it's not an issue

Wow looking nice, better than the cases i have at the moment.
May interfere with GPS signal?
the antenna is in the bottom section of the phone, so i'd think that having a metal back wouldn't make a difference.
I think i'm gonna buy one, so i'll tell everyone how it is once it arrives

I think the GPS antenna is by the flash unit, so the case may interfere with the signal.

I've already got a silicone case, and i've ordered 2 of the cases i linked to.
Thanks anyway though, i might get one of those sometime in the future.
i'm always changing the case im using so having more than one isn't a problem.
Also are there any videos of that case in action ?
save your money - i bought a black one and it was rubbish
getting it on was very stiff, you had to push the on button on the top much harder than normal and after a few days the aluminium unstuck from the plastic and i thre the whole lot away...

You're talking about the aluminium one right? I bought the silicone one, seems better
My Desire HD arrives in the morning, so I've just ordered a 99p silicone jobby off ebay - really not expecting much for 99p, but it should keep it nice while I do some research into the perfect case!!
I've had a hero and it's had a silicone case on it for the last 18 months - it looks pretty much like new. So who knows, maybe 99p will be enough of an investment!

The 99p/$1AUD aren't really that bad.
I bought one for my DHD when i got it in december and it's been on it ever since, it fits perfects and has protected my phone since i put it on
i have a silicon case for mine and use it when im at work, remember the phone is an aluminium shell and a screen so its pretty well protected, i use a case to protect from scratching my pretty chocolate coloured phone
I just bought one of these and they are shipped from Hong Kong and take around 7-10 days to arrive. But they're great and under three dollars.
I've added two pictures below and I have had this case fro two days now and it is flexible (tpu) and has no wear or anything on it, but I imagine if dropped it would look a lot worse. But hey the case is cheap and looks amazing on the Sensation, it's very slimming.
Just search Ebay for White TPU Sensation cases, and one from sunlioner should come up, I'll post a link within the next day but it seems he sold out. So give it a day or so. The cases look amazing.
Do they have extended battery case? I'm in desperate need!
sent from HTC sensation, soff, 3.33 firmware, viper Rom, sense 4.1, mugen battery. please press thanks if I helped in anyway.
I bought a case from this seller for my girlfriend's galaxy s II and i must say that quallity is very good and it fits perfecly.
Sent from my Sensation Elegancia 3.1 Sense 4 using xda app app-developers
These look really good, especially for the price. When I first got my Sensation a year ago I bought an Incipio NGP case. It protects very well but I notice the bit of extra bulk it adds.
I may have to get one of these TPU cases just for giggles... thanks for the tip!

I've had the white and the black one now and the white one looks great but if you get any color or wear on it it will not go away, and the black one actually goes with the phone a lot better so, I'm going to go with the black case even if I have both. Also there is an ugly tint in the white case be cause the Sensations backplate has rubbed off onto the case leaving this ugly black tint/residue. It doesn't come off, I still like the case/s though, they're very sleek, nice, and not to mention cheap .
this is great cheap case, i should buy it right away

OEM Case
I didn't want to start a new thread for this, but if anyone is interested, the black HTC OEM TPU case is available for $3.79 in the US today. Use coupon code "EarlyThanksgiving" for 15% off: $0.99 - $0.15 discount + $2.95 shipping = $3.79. The red one is also <$4 on eBay.
Wireless charging?
Does anybody ever seen back cover for wireless charging?
