Cheap EBay TPU Case

Hey guys I just received my EBay TPU case, I wanted to know how is the fitment for those of you who also have this case? My phone does not fit snug at all its all loose and flimsy feels like the phone is about to fall off. Here are some pictures for you to get a better idea of what I mean.

unplugdaily, the seller offered me a $2.00 refund so I ended up paying $.79 for a case that belongs in the trash can.

Those look terrible, I never had issue with mine.

Post your thoughts below

I like it. It has a certain appeal. As long as it is sufficiently thin, I think the block or slab look of it could work.

My calculations is that it would be around 10mm thick. a little thicker than an iPhone but not noticeable ( iPhone is 9.4 i believe )

That would be right at perfect, then. It could probably even go to 11mm. As that is the thickness of my HD2, which received praise from a friend for being very thin.

I can do some metal working, so I can probably make this phone by using another phone's internals. uhm...

Would you buy one of these?

I recently made myself on of these cases, it protects the whole phone, looks quite cool and is reasonably cheap at the same time.
What's the verdict? If its worth it i may make a few !

Do you have any details? Materials? Cost? etc?

No need to open a new thread about it.
Personally, I don't think the carbon fibre looks nice on the Sensation.
What I would be interested in is the back cover being made out of carbon fibre

How'd you make it? If so, send one my way, I'll do a extensive review on one w/ a youtube video, if you like.

Just messed about with a sheet of 3m Di-noc and an cheap case of eBay nothing special, check this thread, sorry i didnt realise you could add a poll to an old thread!
Cheers

Got the materials for a few cases on order, pm me if you want to make an offer, just to get started !

...should be here by the end of next week at the latest

Carbon Fiber look Sensation Case
I like the look of the case you made.
Great effort.............
How much would you charge for it?
thanks,
JK Minoch

Hi, where about are you from? Seeing as nobody has been interested, it would cost pointlessly high, especially if you re not form the UK.
Check out my other thread on this, you should be fine and will save money doing it yourself, but of course i will make one if you want me too.
Thanks

Me ? No never I like flashy things, this just looks boring.

You the sort of person who buys 'Gold' Fascia's/Battery Covers?

not bad~~~~~~

Chipped off a piece of the MicroUSB Slot... Please help! :O

Hey guys, I really need help because I have no idea what to do right now.
A chunk of the microusb slot chipped off and now my phone looks really bad :O
Is there any case that covers this up (ie those $1-2 silicone cases on eBay)? Or is there anywhere I can buy a cheap replacement housing set to fix it?
Here's a picture...

Well, when I bought the phone off my sister, there used to be a crack around that area, so I just ignored it. Today, I took it out of its leather pouch and found that the part was missing
Anyways, thanks for the help. this'll do the trick right?

Yup, just like mine. They can be a pain when pulling it out of your pocket (sticky/rubbery) but I dont put my phone in my pocket.

Awesome. I purchase a blue silicone one for $2.30 off eBay. I hope it'll cover it up because right now if feels like I have OCD (I was thinking that I should sell my captivate on craigslist just because of this little chipped off piece of plastic lol).
Thanks for you help

Short Review and Pics of Vser TPU Bumper Cases

I picked up a few of these for about $4.50 each and really like them quite a bit. They have a good feel to them and fit the phone perfectly. The buttons still have a nice soft feel when pressing them and don't feel stiff at all. The only thing I don't like is that the back isn't raised enough to protect the camera.

Here you go, if you want a pic from a certain angle of one of the cases let me know.

Is the camera protected when laying flat?
