I'm not sure about everyone's preference here to what cases they enjoy, but I have been emailing http://www.speckproducts.com/products/by_device about them making a case for the Nexus One. They have some really nice fitted cases for iPhones and Blackberrys and would love to get one on my N1.
Anyone else interested can submit a request as I did.

I just noticed this is in general section. Can a moderator move this to accessories please. Sorry

Hi,
I would say without a doubt Vaja are the best makers of phone cases in the world. They allow you to customise your choice of case & hand make to order.
The best famous case they make is the Iphone Ivolution cases.
I have opened a thread previously in accessories section requesting people to contact vaja via the Vaja home page to make a Ivolution case for the Nexus One.
If you search on the net "Iphone Ivolution" you will know what I am talking about.
At the moment I have settled with using a Sena Ultraslim Brown pouch.
Here is a few more good companies that make cases.
www.Noreve.com
www.Pdair.com
www.senacases.com
www.Vajacases.com
Thanks
JAW$
I've owned vaja cases for my ex n95 8gb. I really like the look of the speck products. I wwas hoping more people would see them and ask if they would make one for the N1. I dont think they would unless there is a demand for it. But thank for your suggestions

I would love a Speck case. On my wife's iPhone, we use the hard shell case (silicone inside, hard shell outside) and my toddler BEATS it up. She throws it down the steps and practically everywhere else and the phone still looks brand new (been about a year with same case).
emailed speck

I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any cases like this available yet or if anybody is making a case like this? My friend has some cases like this for his Iphone and they are reall good at protecting the phone.

Those are cool. I'd like to see something for the N1 that made by Speck, like these:
http://www.speckproducts.com/products/candyshell/iphone-3g-iphone-3gs/162
Had one for my iPhone 3G and it was PERFECT.
Best iPhone case I used was the incase slider - wish there were cases like that for the N1. Seidio Innocase II is somewhat similar, but the cutouts could be a bit better. Also, quite expensive trying to buy the case and getting it delivered to Aus.
Nice looking cases in the links...we definately need more case selections than just Seidio!
I've e-mailed both companies, Switcheasy said they are only doing Apple products right now but who knows what the future will hold, and case mate hasnt gotten back to me yet. Hopefully one of them starts or maybe a different company will.
I think I recall reading in another thread that Case-mate are going to start manufacturing Naked cases. They already have Clear Armour for the N1.
I emailed Speck and they said to basically monitor the website for new products.
It was a canned response. :-(
Check out the seidio website ill be getting one of those. Was looking for a case that covers the volume rocker and etc.

I'm definitely interested in this case, but after previously dealing with Seidio, I'm not sure if its gonna be worth it!
If the clips are designed differently from the Innocase, I might consider one, but if they are the same, I will wait for OtterBox to make something nice.
Wow, that actually looks pretty good, and they sell the case/belt clip combo for 49.99. Look at the picture of the area of the case that goes near the microphone, it looks really ill-cut..hopefully it will be more refined when they are released!
yep, i have it in my seidio wish list cart, and have even emailed them to hurry up last week. Looks like the best case i can find. Although if otterbox decides to make one, i might regret this purchase. But otterbox doesnt make many cases for sliders. Hopefully this one.

Otter will release a case for this phone I would imagine they did for the moment.

This is not true! Otterbox makes many sliding phone cases, including cases for the Droid, Droid 2, Palm Pre, Samsung Moment, etc. They make the Commuter case, which is more or less like the Seidio Active case.
But people, I recommend waiting until Amazon has the Active cases in stock.
I bought the Seidio Innocase for $29.99 from Seidio, and a week later, Amazon had the exact same case for $23 with FREE 2 day shipping. :\

i meant in comparison to seidio, they make fewer slider cases. Sedio does almost any phone, otterbox... just the hot ones.
Seidio Innocase Rugged
I received a survey from Seidio developers yesterday asking me if I would be interested in buying an Innocase Rugged even if they weren't able to make it fit with the sliding keyboard feature. I responded saying that the Sprint Epic 4g was the only phone in the Galaxy S line in this country that had a keyboard and that it is one of the main reasons anyone would buy a Galaxy S phone from Sprint versus any other carrier. I recommended that if they can't build it so that we're able to open our sliding keyboard then they should just focus on making a huge extended battery for us instead
The only issue i have is that they need to make good tabs especially for the bezel. When i first got the official sprint case with the grip on the back i loved it but the tabs broke the second time i took it off. I recently got a replacement and the tabs are perfect. The only issue i have with all these cases is that the bezel is always some plastic round crap. I have a great idea that would help out for a rugged seidio case and prevents the thick bezel to influence the keyboard. If you just look at the cases available for epic and think really hard you can get a game changer for slider phone case. But companies stay generic so eeehhhh.
Id prefer themmaking it easier to remove
sent from my epic 4g with no 4g
I don't know if anyone has seen this, but the active x case is now available in black only.

Good to know! What's the difference between this and the Innocase? Is this more durable?
The Active cases are similar to the Otterbox Commuter or Casemate Tough.
A rubber skin with plastic shell outside. I'm considering the blue active once they show up on amazon.
I'm wary of Seidios quality though because the active case my friend got for her Evo has been shedding since she got it. The active case plastic shell seems to break easily at the corner apparently also.
posted from a EPIC4G.
Yeah between the Evo innocases damaging the phone, and the Epic innocases not fitting properly, I'm expecting to be unpleasantly surprised =\
BUT that's why Amazon is the best, its so easy to return stuff =]
Has anyone tried the Body Glove case with kickstand? I can't post the link as a new user but it can be found on the Bodyglove.com website under Mobile and Epic 4G. I would really like a case with an integrated kickstand (one thing I still envy the EVO for). I've got the Sprint case just to keep my Epic protected, but I would like a higher quality product.
I'm not sure I'm a fan of the textured case, and it's a little pricey at $29.99. Hoping someone who has it can give me their take on whether it was a good buy.
looks like the kickstand is in the clip, not the case. They sell the clip seperate for 4.95, I wonder if it will fit on other cases? Anyone own one that can check it out?
You're not gonna provide us with a link to see what you are talking about?

I really would prefer if people actually read my posts before replying.
Thank you luis12285 for providing the link.
That looks like a nice case and the belt-clip/stand is sorta innovative combo. I'd really be interested to see if anyone else has used one or had their hands on one. I ordered the Body Glove case for my wife from Sprint.com accessories, but don't think its this model with the belt clip and kickstand.
Thanks for sharing this guys! Wasn't aware of it and definitely interested!
Looks interesting, but body glove cases for other phones I've handled in store are on the bulky side, and this one appears to be the same comparing the photos online to my sprint case.
I got the Body Glove case from Sprint Accessories and was really disappointed with the quality of construction. Sending it back. Went to to Best Buy and got the Platinum "quick clip" case with swivel holster. Keeps the screen safe against a felt lined holster. A little bulky, but better than scratching my baby!
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Platinu...07487&st=platinum case&cp=1&lp=8#BVRRWidgetID
Yeah I wouldnt go with the "Body Glove" on such a high end prestigious phone. I work in a foundry and have a Nokia 5800 (or something along those lines, crappy little flat phone.) that i use there because of all the sand/heat/oil that i'm around at work. I wouldn't dare expose my epic to sand/metal shavings! So I take the Nokia. It had a body glove on it.
The case lasted a few good months and then started to fall apart. Peices of connecting clips broke, leaving it floppy on one side of the phone, the "grip" stuff on the back of the phone is very grippy and feels nice, but unfortunatly it too peels off and away after a while. It's a very neat design of a case, but it just dosen't hold up. Just my 2 cents.
So I've looked at all the popular cases and most of them were pretty minimalistic while offering protection. None of them had the pizazz I want though and I grow envious of iPhone users because they have much more interesting covers.
I'm wondering if there's more unique and special cases; I guess what I'm looking for are cases that are more "gimmicky."
I'm also interested in leather cases that are a hardshell with leather on the exterior without the cover flap.
I'd post pics but I'm a new member.
Nothing to help you, but I wish these guys would make some other cases: http://www.metaliphonecase.com/
i cant post a link (just re-registered) but type in g2x bumper case into google search and it will come up with the one i use. it kinda looks like the iphone bumper case but with a smoke grey back piece. hope that helps

Oh I like that... but too pricy.
I tried searching for some cases on this thread but I couldn't find any... so sorry if this is a repost
Anyway, being a guy, I feel like the folio wallet cases aren't exactly well suited for guys. At least for me, I prefer the cases like the iLuv Modena or the Speck Smartflex Card cases. Do you guys know of any other cases like this? Please post what you're using and why you prefer it!
Personally, I'm thinking of getting the Modena, but I've heard reviews of people saying its cheap quality and the leather doesnt line up with the phone

Piel Frama
Piel Frama is the OG of premium leather cases. I had one back in the day for my original Compaq iPaq. I still remember the scent when I opened the box. I'm tempted to order one just for the nostalgia! I remembered them the other day when I was pondering S4 cases, and I googled them to see if they are still around. Sure enough they are and make a huge lineup for the S4 and every other popular device.
Apparently you DID NOT search because this has been discussed at length, with many recommendations.
