Is the Aluminium case really that good? It looks like it has a hinge on one side..?

What about this crystal case?

I'll wait and see what they say, i explained why i wanted a refund so will see.
Sent three requests that the order be cancelled which were obviously ignored as i have now received an out of stock email...
They emailled me last night to say that these cases are definitely for the Desire but they didnt have a stock photo, and that stock will be arriving around the 5th of May - its been delayed for obvious reasons.
yes, I got a mail saying out till the 2nd May. Argh.

But the photo is not a HTC desire!
I got told out of stock till May 3rd. But definitely Desire specific (not Google Nexus desipte the picture not updated yet).
I had one of the crystal cases turn up in the post today from whitefeatherderby on eBay. Pretty pleased with it though I am bothered how slippery it will be on tables, etc. I also have one coming from Hong Kong too but realised after I ordered it that it's a purple one...

Hi Guys
I saw many different suggestiong from different people regarding the leather cases and other cases.
In addition i know there are many different cases for nexus one.
I am looking for Gelli case or soft Silicone case for HTC Desire.
Examples for what i am looking (I found it here between the other people suggestions):
1- http://ultra-case.com/product.php?pID=415
2- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120527097735&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
If someone found already where i can buy these (above) for the HTC desire , plese share the info.
Thanks
I'm looking for the same. Firstly, I can't believe the phone didn't come with a basic case but I am even more surprised that there are not silicone cases made specifically for the Desire.
Why is this?
I've ordered one from morpethmobiles.co.uk - was posted today so I'll let you know what its like once received.

Whether the case suitable also for the volume buttons ? the link not include this view. In addition can you post some pics with your Desire phone inside the case.
Thanks

I think because it's new phone so it's still not fully adapted by the providers. I hope we will see more accessories for this phone soon.

Received today - it's the made for the nexus one unfortunately so there's the hole in the back for the noise cancellation on the nexus. Was hoping it would be a good fit - and it is once it's on but it's a bit tight, it goes on with a bit of tugging and stretching it. Undecided about whether I'll keep it or not yet.
It's fairly well made and will provide good protection on the back and sides, although it appears to have a slight manufacturing defect in it, a small flake of black paint or something actually in the material.
Access to the bottom buttons is fine, with slight misalignment with the power button and it makes it a little harder to press the volume buttons on the side due to the thickness of the material.
I have the same nexus one case for mine, it has been doing a good enough job for me, the nexus badge was easy to peel off, and it fits okay.
Can still use all the buttons fine, so I'm happy.
There is that random odd hole for noise cancelation, but really I'm only using it til I can get gelaskins, and at that price I really can't complain
Capdase
I've emailed Capdase regarding the availability of their Soft Jacket 2 Xpose and this is what I got:
Dear Harvey,
Thank you for your approach
The mention cases (Soft Jacket 2 Xpose) for HTC Desire A8181 which as under production and will be expected at around end of May

CAPDASE
I've been using capdase for years now and so far I've found their product to be the best. Yea so I guess capdase fans would have to wait for a month or two. For the meantime I'll be using a simple soft pouch once my desire arrives.

Great, let us know if you get something valuable.
I'd like a case like this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/2x-New-Silicone...Accessories&hash=item414f16ef5b#ht_1875wt_968
but will the trackpad be still usable?
I buy my cases from http://stores.ebay.com/dcmugen but they stated they weren't doing a desire case (although there appears to be one on there) when I emailed them a few weeks back.
The last ones I got were for my Nokia 5800 - http://cgi.ebay.com/2-SOFT-Crystal-...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3a50c8bbad and the build quality is amazing.
Lets hope they make one for the Desire otherwise i'll be stuck with the one from Morpeth Mobiles http://www.morpethmobiles.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=/73/SD_HTC_Desire_crystal&cat=627
I ordered one over 3 weeks ago but due to the whole Iceland fiasco, I still haven't received it.

More silicones are starting to appear but do you guys know how easy the front button section is to scratch or dust?
I've seen one with the silicone actually covering this controls but not sure about it. The other cases leave them exposed.
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.
My best regards,

Really looking forward to this if they make it right.
Read all about the otter case in a review for the straight desire - the defender model it was.
I wasnt overly impressed.
So in light of this can yuo accessory experts point me what YOU think is the best usable (I.E. doesnt look like a tank or bomb shelter) case. I am thinking somethin silicon?
anyway, would really love ya expert opinions! I need to protect my phone - more frlom falls than anything else, am a fairly cluimsy 6'4'' so it has a long way to drop!
respect!

I made it yesterday to try and help people to decide what to get as a case for their HTC desire HD. I tried the HTC S550 pouch and 2 silicon cases. Didn't really know what I was going to say so I just started talking and showed my DHD a little with its accessories (still in love with it) but at the end I dropped my Desire HD on the floor luckily my appartment is all carpet

I bought the exact same gel case as you showed in the video (grey). I bought it from an ebaystore called Londonmagicstore. I paid 3gbp including shipping to sweden. Fast and reliable. As I don't have the DHD yet (is to be released next week in sweden) I hope it fits.

Helpfull video mate. I just ordered two silicon/gel cases from Ebay myself and they bought are coming with protective film for the screen. I am really looking forward to getting them as I am paranoid about damaging my new DHD.
Thx for the video - off to watch it now!
The best protective case by far, and the case I use on my HTC HD, Samsung Galaxy s and HTC desire, is the Pdair aluminium metal case.
http://www.pdair.com/
Unfortunately, for some strange reason, they don´t plan to make this case for HTC Dsire HD
If you are interested, drop the a mail and request that they make a aluminium case for the HTC Desire HD as well. [email protected]
Just thought I'd vouch for the eBay cases! Remember, they all come from the same factories in China, you're only paying extra for the branding 'SuperShield' 'MegaCase' etc. There are some exceptions but very few. I bought my case for £2.35 with a screen protector and it's perfect, a great fit and nice feel! I've never spent more than a couple of pounds on silicone/plastic cases or screen protectors and all of my phones remained in perfect condition months after I bought them. Will post links soon.
Regards.
Cannot see anyone being unhappy with this case..... £2.65 an absolute bargain.

just bagged one of those from ebay - so thanks and yeah will feedback what I think of the case and protector!

Now that is strange! When I click the link it says the seller has updated his listing and the price shows £29.65!!! I've emailed the seller to ask what is going on as it definitely was £2.65 this morning. Maybe the increased traffic spooked him .
Anyway just to reinforce my point regarding the branding of goods from the same Chinese source, here is CaseHut's listing for the ORB Gel Case..... look familiar?? £5.99 plus postage..... hmmmm!!
Anyway, the case fits well and gives good protection. All buttons are placed correctly and the camera lens, flash and charger port all have good access. Hope this shows that you can keep your expensive phone SAFE without breaking the bank.
Regards.
I received my silicone case I paid 2.95 for on eBay today and the quality is great the fit is perfect and it doesn't make the phone too bulky. Another thing is the case makes pressing the power and volume buttons a lot easier
So overall I am delighted with the case.

I guess the seller hopes that someone actually buys it without noticing the high price. He must know that others recommend this product, and well, sneakily tries to make huge profit....

Hi Guys,
Before the HTC sensation I had a HTC HD2 with this original case/pouch: http://www.netimes.com/shop/htc-pouch-case-po-s510-for-htc-incredible-s-hd7-hd2-p-2442.html
It's a little too wide for the sensation, and the sensation is a little longer...
Does anyone knows if there is a case/pouch on the market for the sensation that is (almost) the same as the one I mentioned above.
Thnx,
Niek
If you're in the UK, carphonewarehouse has a case for the nexus s that will work.
Google tech 21 d30. I think this is so nice, I just can't find anyone to ship to US for me

Most cases/pouches are big, hard etc... I like the HD2 pouch because it's so small and takes the shape of the phone.

search on eBay for: "HTC Sensation 4G ,Leather Case Pouch + LCD Film c", the top one is the one i ordered. i hope it wil fit, but it looks okay, it's cheap and free shipping
I wish the US HD2 would have gotten that pouch too
using the hd2 case for my sensation atm, until both the sensation one is released and I can get my hands on one.
Looks like this is an official HTC slip pouch for the Sensation http://www.expansys-usa.com/htc-sensation-meteor-slip-pouch-po-s570-218025/

thanks for the link....that's a pretty cool pouch!

Looks like the good old HD2 pouch
I bought a new HD2 pouch off eBay for £5.99 with free P&P and it fits my Sensation very well. A little loose, perhaps, the phone will shoot out of the pouch if I don't grip it tightly enough, but it will do until play.com send my pre-ordered official Sensation meteor pouch.

Ok I made a mistake in this post, it's not that one!
But I still don't like it, it's to ''hard''..
Think I'm going to use the old one for the HD2 for a while and wait for a good pouch... or use the phone without any form of case/pouch
i do understand people like offical stuff and the quality you get from some of these pouches, but couldn't you just make one for cheaper? all it is is a peice of leather folded over and sewn then cut to size lol.
