Case & Protector - Desire Accessories

Having been used to using the pouch that came with my HD2 I was surprised not to see one with the Desire. Can anyone suggest a nice OEM-fit pouch for the device as well as a good screen protector?

Take a look:

Maybe you find something there.

Not a lot I like there...I ideally want an OEM-case as supplied with the HD2, surprised HTC didn't include one...

Yeh there is not a lot of choice.
A lot of manufacturers have not made any cases yet. They are underway though.
However on that thread are cheap alternatives for now to keep it safe

Krussel has a nice case for the Diamond. Now a place where to it it because i really like this one..
I also like the Krusell case . Not sure I want to risk an invisibleshield after various stories about it removing the paint on the htc cruise.
If anyone finds a supplier in the uk for the Krusell case, please post.

Whery to buy in the UK: http://www.krusell.se/where2buy.php?s=3
One vote to Krusell:
- Horizon with Multidapt - Slim for dropping the phone to the case or
- Orbit Flex with Multidapt
I like the Multiadapt system, I have used it for years.
Mobilefun now have the Orbit Flex in stock, mine arrived yesterday
Also at smartphoneshop.nl
Grtz.

Yeh and it would be stupidly over-priced as well...i like their cases but cant justify spending that much money on one.

I ordered one of these earlier today - I've paid for Saturday delivery - not convinced they were really in stock but hoping as I havent recieved a dispatch notification. I'll update in the morning if it arrives and confirm the Krusell model number although its the only "orbit" one I can find???
***UPDATE*** Case arrived this morning from MobileFun and YES its the Krusell 75365 with the removable front.
http://www.krusell.se/product.php?productID=2994&category=76
The quality is just as you'd expect from Krusell - excellent. They've even added some detailing on the back that matches the "daimond" shaping from the battery cover. I'm very pleased.

I have just ordered this one. I had it for Tytn and Tytn 2 already and loved them. I even asked the guys if they could make one for my Digital Camera from Sony, and they custom made one which fits perfectly. So I had a stylish set for my Tytn 2 and my Sony Cybershot. Swiss top quality.
They speak english, even if the page is in German.
Ordered a Krusell case from mobilefun, cant seem to get hold of the HTC pouch so decided to order the krusell case as ive heard nothing but good things about them.
i like the original htc case most, i just want one where to carry my diamond in. when i use it, i want it naked!
i can get this one for 6,70€ because i have a job in the mobilephone-business, i think that's a great price, isn't it?

Google Nexus One Vaja Ivolution Cases

Hi, All
I was wondering if anybody would be interested in a Custom Vaja Ivolution Case for the Nexus One.
For anybody that hasn't heard of them, they are suppose to be the Prada of mobile phone cases. They mainly make cases for the Iphone.
I want to get one, but they still only make a Pouch.
I have put in a request on the Vaja website & would appreciate if anybody else who is interested in one please put in a request. The link to the website is below.
http://www.vajacases.com/
The more the merrier.
Also they have just released one for the HD2
Thanks
JAW$
Done.
I love Vaja cases. I had one for my Palm TX a few years ago and it was amazing quality. It's spendy, but it's worth it.

If you own a Nexus One & want a Vaja Ivolution Case, please contact Vaja & give them your suggestion.
The more people ask for this, the more likely they will make it.
Those are some cool looking cases, but I worry about the N1 version they show on their site. The bottom corners are not protected at all. Even if the phone is in the case and you drop it, you could still end up with gnarly looking corners after just one drop onto some concrete. They need to come out with ones like I saw for the iPhone and Palm that fully protect the whole phone.
From what I can see there is already one under Products - Phone - Google - Nexus one. Or are you looking for something else?

The style & quality is no where near as good as Vaja
Been a long time Vaja fan ever since the PDA ages where I had a Sony Clie N70. I still actually have that case and works and fits like a glove. I have since gone down the ivolution line with a lot of Sony Ericsson products and when I saw this pouch I got excited for a minute but noticed that it wasn't really a case. I would def pay top dollar for a nice case if one was made for my N1.
The Argentinian leather is absolutely top notch. In my opinion, the best leather you can buy out there.

Thanks man
need to change design..
I'm eager to get vaja case for N1 and already sent email to them long time ago.
but I can't understand why they made as like this design.
To compare with HD2 and iPhone, they have flip cover!
that's more comfortable and useful.
I hope they're reconsidering about this design. I know that N1's market share is too small, but they're enthusiast and will pay for good case.

Leather Case

Hi guys, was just wondering if anyone knows if this phone will ship with a leather case? The only other HTC phones I've had are the Touch Diamond and the Touch Pro 2, both shipped with cases, so I'm feeling hopeful. Just wondered if anyone knew for sure?
Well the g2 hasn't from the looks of it so I doubt it. My hero didn't come with one a year ago either.
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
From a description I read previously, I'm pretty sure it doesn't. But, then again, I'm pretty sure in the description, it said it came with an 8gb card, and another member said he was told it didn't come with a card!
However, since you can buy a leather slip case seperately for this, I'm gonna go ahead and say that it won't come with a leather case...
Every HTC device that I've ever bought has shipped with a leather case.. so.. I think yes... but we'll see.
I just got mine today and sadly it does not come with a leather case.

@Orite
You're talking of TMobile G2, not HTC Desire Z
They're the same phone, but we can never be sure if it's coming with the same accessories!
I'm waiting for my Desire Z...when it'll come to me I'll update you on the included accessories ^^

Well' I don't worry so much about phone case, I have order a quality case from Ebay
Having kept my Raphael (touch pro) and the case it was shipped with as a pair permenantly for the last 2 years I would hope it does come with a case......the desire didnt afaik.
Ive spotted a fairly tidy looking official HTC case here: http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/htc-desire-z-pouch-po-s540-p26020.htm

this policy seems to have changed more recently, I used to get one with htc phones up till the magic, but then hero, legend and desire all didn't come with a case
Hi,
When I've ordered the HD2, the case arrived in the box as well.
A month later I have ordered a Touch2 for my friend and there was no case in the box.
So ... we will see what is in the box when it arrives, hope there will be no difference in accessories between countries where the phone will be delivered.
If htc cheaps out of a leather case for the Desire Z, the G2 forums are reporting that the original G1 case, easily found on eBay for cheap, fits the G2 perfectly.

I have owned a Hero and a Desire (Bravo) and neither of those came with a case of any sort.
This one looks good making use of the flip out keyboard without taking it out of the case:

Interesting. Not sure how much that plastic over the keys would annoy me, though. I almost think I'd rather have a slip pouch that I'd have to remove the phone from each time than type through plastic. I dunno, I really did have my heart set on something I'd be able to type on while still in the pouch.
not a huge fan of leather cases tbh..seems to add a lot of perceived bulk to the phone. a clear crystal case would be fine i think..but at the moment, not many options! guess i'll just have to take extra care when i get my phone in 2 days! =D
In my opinion Noreve has the best leather cases. These case's have a stable metal frame inside the stitch edges.
- Dromaius
Just had a look and yes, their cases look great. Could only see a pouch style case for the DZ, though. Went ahead and sent them an e-mail asking if they planned to develop a flip style case and I received this back...
Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for your email.
This case is under production. We will launch it in less than 1/2 weeks. http://www.noreve.com/product/Housse_cuir_HTC_Desire_Z_Tradition.html
We will inform you as soon as we launch it on-line.
Thank you for your interest in our brand.

[Q] oem cases by htc

..........................
the second one is out of stock, so that should solve the problem
Personally, the first one as I prefer a hard shell. I was spoiled by the Case-Mate on my N1.
I recently purchased 2 G2's and am looking for cases for them also. I was looking at the case in the second link and liked how it is supposedly made by HTC. I tried looking on the HTC website for more info and pics of the case but unfortunately couldn't find them on their product website. I called and spoke to a rep at their sales site who was not aware of the case. I also spoke to 2 reps at HTC customer service who couldn't find any info on it either. This has me a bit concerned since I would expect HTC to be selling these cases on their own website if in fact they were made by them, and I would certainly expect them to be aware of their existence (which they were not). Not saying their not genuine, but I am a bit leery now.
On a related note, one of the HTC reps I spoke to mentioned they do not recommend cases or screen protectors as they can cause overheating problems, especially while charging the battery. he said if I was going to use a case I should remove the phone from the case wile charging the battery. With these snap on cases that seem to be a royal pain to take off this doesn't appear to be an option.
I saw in another thread here several users seem to like the EPIK TPU cases sold on ebay by DCMugen. Sorry I can't post the link since this is my first post, but there are a few other threads that discuss it and show pics. So this is what I'm looking at now since it can be easily removed to charge the phone and should be more gentle against the phone than the hard plastic. My only concern is how flat the screen will sit with the keyboard open. It's kind of hard to tell from the pics.
I already have a thread talking about the second case you're interested...

Well, I would be careful going with that one, only for the fact that I believe it won't open to its fullest. Check out the reply I left in that thread. Now, I do own one of those TPU cases for my old MyTouch3G and I loved it, but with the opening keyboard on the G2 I don't believe you can open it up all the way. The HTC OEM case I have works perfectly.

[Q] Best G2/Desire Z Pouch style case

Hi Everyone,
Just got myself a nice unlocked and unbranded Desire Z (UK) at the weekend. I remember reading that the original G1 pouch is a good fit for the Desire Z, but I seem to have misplaced mine. Is there anywhere I can get an official one cheap, or has anyone come across any nice alternatives that are similar?
I remember liking the neoprene outer and soft liner of the OEM G1 pouch, it's a shame HTC aren't shipping them with this phone.
Ebay has a ton of them for like 6 bucks, that's where I got mine for my G2

Is it decent quality though? And do you have a link to the listing?
I don't have a link on me but its the same pouch that the G1. Its the exact official pouch
Oh ok, well I am going to have a better look for mine tonight. If not I will find one on ebay.

Just do a search for oem g1 pouch
The neoprene cases by BUILT are another option you may want to consider if you can afford to pay a bit more. They're extremely well crafted (good materials and stitching) and are a perfect fit... builtny.com

The only problem with that is, I live in the UK, and I don't want to pay for ridiculous shipping costs just for a pouch.
I have ordered a cheap knock off from ebay and will see how good quality that is, if it's rubbish I will look for a better one, maybe get the one you suggest.

I already ordered it before you posted your link, but thanks anyway, I will probably get one of those if this is crap.
Ok let me know if you can't get the oem let me know, I'm in the states but shipping something that small shouldn't be that expensive to ship to the uk.
Yeah, it should be cheap, but it's still going to be more than one from the UK. Doesn't matter anyway, i guess no one else has any pouch recommendations.
Sent from my HTC Desire Z
Has anyone seen the tmobile one for the mytouch 4g? Its leather but not bulky and has a cut out slot at the bottom I'm guessing to see the track pad flashing.. I'm using my g1 one sometimes and a sidekick one other times..seems like that one would be the best of both worlds if it fits
Might be a bit late, but if the pouch you got turned out to be crap then I highly recommend (what I think is) the official Desire Z case found at clove.co.uk http://www.clove.co.uk/htc-desire-z-po-s540-pouch-case It's a leather pouch, with a lining similar to that used in the creen sleaning cloths (so cleans you're screen when you put it in/take it out!) It's a very snug fit, excellent quality and has the HTC logo pressed on it, so I assume it's genuine. It also comes with a tab you pull to take the phone out as it's a very secure fit. I can't speak more highly of a case for a phone than this! Even if you already have one, I still recommend you check it out, it's a uk website and only £9
EDIT: £10.80 inc VAT, possibly also p+p fees.

No, the one where the phone fits in vertically (portrait). Saw a couple on Amazon, but not sure if that's the route I want to go. Still thinking about it though.
I picked this up and it works perfect, nice tight fit
