Thanks. I have read through that thread and the MOFI Pouch seems to be a good options, but I can't find anywhere selling it !!
Any ideas ?
I'm using a nexus rubber skin, the phone still fits in the large krussel Luna case. its quite tight though, it only sticks out the top a few mm.

Thanks.. not to keen on the krussel Luna case
Wondering if I could use the G1 case + flexiskin ???
I just picked up for £6.00 a very smart soft leather pouch with even softer leather insides in a vodafone shop, it is vodfone branded unfortunately however the stitching is excellent and it is soft leather and fits the desire perfectly. I think it is for the iphone but it is better and much smarter looking than those socks that everyone seems to be getting atm and for 6 quid for a leather case its cheaper than ebay.
The product is a Vodafone Premium Universal Case (Sutible for larger mobile phones one as it comes in different sizes)
Any chance of any images ? With the phone in it etc ??
Thanks
Here it is, shop I was in only had it in brown but they do it in black as well, at that price i didnt care however now i have it, it kinda suits the phone in brown.
Phone is in case in both photos

You could buy the red coloured Mofi pouch on Amazon.co.uk, unfortunately the black ones are out of stock:

They only send it to UK.
My only option was krusell luna with fits my naked desire nicely, and it looks beter than its picture.
Thanks..
I'll call into voda later today and take a look
case for Desire.
Try PDair's site. I have several aluminum cases for Ipod touches and my N97 that have hard plastic screen protector as option instead of open face type. So far they only have open face type last time I checked.Have never crakced a screen yet and my phone goes to work with me in construction every day.
Bought the Vodafone case today and whilst its well made its just to tight a fit and is a struggle getting the phone out when it rings
Bought one of these from Tesco today.. only cost a £1.00.

This and the flexiskin will do until I can find a case I like..

There are so many cases to choose from. Could you recommend one that fits these requirements?
Transparent
Should not cover the three dock pins.
Not too thick so I can still use the google sleeve.
under $10, as most of them are under $5
If you own a case please let me know if it makes it harder to press the power button.
There are a bunch of "Skytouch" cases on meritline for <$4 shipped. Anyone have these?
http://www.meritline.com/newsearch.aspx?category=Cell+Phone+Case&SearchTerm=skytouch+nexus
I just got one from hand held items and the snap on are pieces of crap. I placed a screen protector on it and it made the protector bubble. Wont even snap close
I've been looking for a case as well and so far all I've found is basically junk.
Rubber TPU cases from dcmuggen on ebay are good wont fit in stock case all your gonna find that fit in the sleeve are skins and for those I recommend BSE http://www.bestskinsever.com/cell-phones/smart-phones/google-nexus-one-skin-1.html
Really though to meet your requirements a skin is your only choice if you want great protection though...
Then you cant go wrong here http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/csr3hnx1-bk.htm
Use code LOVE2010 will save you a couple bucks.
Thanks for the info NexVision.
I was looking at TPU...waiting for a plain transparent version without the check-box pattern.
BSE-- Is this just a scratch protector for the phone? The link above only shows a pic of the bare phone.
The seidio is nice but too expensive for me. $30.
BSE is a skin adheres directly to the phone almost like nothing is there just a thin plastic coating basically.
The TPU cases I as referring to where these http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300389191608&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
I bought the 5 pack since I have one my girl has one and my buddy has one.
The grey and black are the best IMO with the grey it matches the color of the phone and comes with a good screen protector as well.
Heres some pics of the cases http://picasaweb.google.com/nexvision/Cases?feat=directlink
Since then I got my black one in also and I like it. the red sticker comes right off and the empty space lines right up with the HTC on the back of the phone.
If strictly under $10 you really are looking for some junky stuff.
I mean I have always heard about the almost arriving seidio case that i ordered.
and currently use this one which I'm very pleased with the build quality, fit & accessibility of the phone itself:
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_11000561_11000885&products_id=28070
genuinely pleased, hope i will like my seidio when it arrives too
I got a silicone case. It fits the N1 perfect and would protect it pretty good from a drop.

OK, so snap on cases are out.
Leaning towards the grey TPU case now.

I got the case from PDair too.Before I use the product from PDair,I try one from ebay, but the quality seems too worse so, I prefer to buy one in high quality but with higher price.
Hey guys i have found these two as the best for me.
Sena Ultra Slim Pouch
PDair Vertical Leather pouch
but i can't decide between them. i want to know if any of you had previous experiences and which one is the thickest or bigger in general as i don't see dimensions.
Also i am between the following as additional protection:
1) regular cheap screen protectors
2) full body invinsible shield
3) martin fields
if i buy the regular screen protectors are they going to do any work or nothing at all ? just a bunge of plastic onto my screen. In addition i think the invinsible shield is the best protection of all but does it reduce the capacitive screen feedback ????
Thanks for any help

Is this the cheapest place you found the Sena Ultra Slim? I quite like that one as it isnt too bulky and appears to protect the whole phone. Think i'd probably buy one if it was a little cheaper
well i found it on ebay too but i haven't searched along before i decide which one. but yes the main reason i liked it is the size. that's why i want to know how much thicker is the pdair one
I was about to order the Sena Ultra Slim for the Nexus 1, but I am afraid it

I got the same exact reply from them
I've bought a Sena Nexus One case and the Desire fits very nicely. It does stick out a few millimetres at the top, but the whole point is screen protection, surely? The case is nicely tight, and beautifully made with internal stitching, so the width of the case is only a couple of millimetres more than the phone. It's basic in the sense that you push the phone out from the bottom, and there's no toggles to pull it out, magnetic catches etc., but who cares 'cos it looks very classy - more like a small cigar case than a phone holder!
Incidentally, delivery from Sena is really quick and efficient, and the discount code posted up here somewhere is still valid
just received my sena ultra slim case and its a perfect fit very happy and not bulky

Sena Ultra Slim Pouch is near perfect fit! but open edges
PDair Vertical Leather pouch is more bulky and can take more damage but not as nice as the Sena. I also dont like the belt clip on the PDair you can easily squeeze your Desire out and have it go flying
Personal vote is the Sena

+1 I wouldnt mind seeing this too. I found the discount code too, i'll probably end up buying it but want to see what it looks like first if possible.
Would somebody mind posting a pic or two of the phone in the Sena case please?
Also maybe a helping hand in finding that code everyone's talking about?
Search google for 'sena discount code' its the first result. Thats the code I tried, worked when I got to checkout but didnt follow the order through as im waiting for the specific desire one. Wouldnt mind seeing a picture though to see how it fits.

Cheers, Matt. I think I'll be getting the Sena Ultra Slim. Would just like to see how it looks before I order it, now.
Anybody care to oblige?
The dimesions are near identical so id image it'd be a good fit. GSM arena give the following dimensions:
Nexus one: 119*59.8*11.5 mm
Desire: 119*60*11.9 mm
Still, it'd be nice to see a pic to make sure.

When I bought my sensation I also bought the body glove case with the belt clip but as most of you know the case was leaving indentations on the back cover. Body glove sent me a replacement but the new ones fits very loose.
So which case do you guys recommend I purchase to replace my body glove case? I prefer hard cases over the soft tpu type cases everybody likes. I also prefer that the case has some sort of rubber or leather type material on the back. I may consider the two piece slider cases if it looks nice.
So I'm open to any suggestions. I haven't seen many threads about hard cases. Please if you can post a picture as well

How about this:

I ordered a set. They're snap on cases, and doesn't protect the top/bottom, also they're flimsy Just a nice looking colored mesh back cover.
I was given one of those cases (the black one) for free by the woman (in China) I bought the phone from.. I looked and saw that dude on eBay has sold 66 sets of 4 cases for $9.99 each and given free shipping to all. I figured he's made $500 from all this because the cases only cost 5RMB each (like $0.80).. good work to him.. damn I need to move to HK haha

Looove the tough cases by them.
Although I wanted something different because I spent a long time with one on my nexus one... time to change it up.
Was gonna go for Incipio's similar hybrid style but they dont have it yet for the sensation
Anyone know of a case like the case-mate tough case or otterbox but on a budget? Can't afford to buy a $30-$49 case right now but I want something with protection, not a tpu case.

I got one of these off ebay. For $1.79AUD delivered I am very happy. Pretty good quality really. Protects the front and back and It has all the mic holes too.
It comes with a front piece and and a back piece that clip together.
Iv used the ROCK case, nice and slips on the easiest.
Hi guys, i just got a second hand Desire Z in mint condition and I want to keep it that way as much as possible, so I ve been browsing throught eBay for a while now and i can't seem to find anything that would be practical due to the slide keyboard. I once got a simple gel silicone case for a SE Xperia X10 Mini Pro and it was "garbage"..whenever the keyboard got out the case always slided off..so I want a few opinions before i make my choice now.
The one case that caught my eye is this one > http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLACK-HTC-DESIRE-Z-ALUMINIUM-CASE-SCREEN-PROTECTOR-/270875659598?pt=UK_MobilePhones_MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item3f11728d4e#ht_3135wt_1413
has anyone gotten this or a similar case?
this one seems pretty far the same case, but much cheaper >http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALUMINUM-METAL-HARD-PLASTIC-PLATED-CASE-COVER-HTC-DESIRE-Z-BLACK-/250923119681?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3a6c2ef441#ht_1529wt_1156
are they by any chance the exact same case?
if someone knows where i can get a relatively cheap case that works good on the Desire Z please send me a link!
Looks like a knock off of the Otterbox except they're using aluminium instead of high impact plastic with a rubber lining. I would be skeptical because the metal might scratch against the phone's exterior during installation and/or use. it's cheap so it might be worth a try.

Been using an Otterbox on my G2 for a couple months (since I broke the LCD without an Otterbox ), highly highly recommend! The price you see on ebay is just about the same as I paid on Amazon. It's worked really really well for me, I was taking the case on/off all the time due to a malfunctioning game causing memory overflows, needing to pull the battery pretty frequently, I've never had an issue with the clips snapping like some people seem to have.
HTH!
The Otterbox is a great case,had a few problems with clips breaking but got sent a replacement, unfortunately the commuter is now out of production so if the case breaks not sure if you could get a replacement from Otterbox
Search amazon for tmobile g2 oem rubberized skin. Adds a little bulk to it but keeps me from dropping it. Keyboard slides out with ease and all other hardware buttons are accessible. Almost provides all around protection with a little extra height from the screen. Has a rubbery feel but still feels great to me. Assuming g2 and dz have the same physical specs...
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I have been using the otterbox since i had my g2. I tried the HTC hardshell rubberized case, but went back to otterbox a day later. My only cons with the otterbox is that the clips can break if you are not careful, and it is a bit bulky.
So has anyone gotten the case that was posted first? The metallic one? I'm tempted but I'm not sure if it's good or not.

I wouldn't recommend anything from eBay, I prefer to go with sure things. I got a nice one from my T-Mobile store, it's light, aesthetic, and cushions falls, although of course not as well as Otterbox. I can't post links, but search for Body Glove Matrix Snap-On Cover for T-Mobile G2 on google, and it's the first Amazon.com result, $3.31
In case anyone is interested, I just ordered the metallic case so I'll be receiving it and posting pictures sometime this week or next week
Well I got my case today. It's navy blue and looks amazing. Only problem is that it adds bulk. The tmobile car charger doesn't fit snug with it on. Luckily, the case is real easy to pop off.

As promised, here are pictures of the case! I've adjusted the colors on photoshop to make sure the blue is exactly the same as what you get (since the pictures misrepresent it).
PROS
-Looks sweet
-Back looks and feels great
-If you have an ICS rom, the blue and black matches real well
-Lightweight
CONS
-Adds a decent amount of thickness
-The hole for the microusb port is too small for anything to fit snugly
-Tougher to push the camera and power button on top
As you can see in one of the pictures, I had to cut the area around the microusb port so that my car charger and regular charger would be able to fit without falling out. Other than that, I love this case! It's only $5-7 on ebay.
Hello there, I'm looking for a nice all black matte type case for my phone (one s) and want one that'll cover up most buttons like the power and the back and the volume buttons but had some space for the headphone jack and mic, and itll fit good on my phone, now I now there's all types of cases but I'm looking for like mixture of a hardcase and silicone mixture but still keeping it a solid black color and it keeps the phone slim, or something similar to that but durable because its hard to find a good case.....and any and all suggestions are welcome

Grabbed a Diztronic Matte Black case for my phone. Keeps it slim, barely any bulk, covers the volume rockers (but nothing else), has enough bulk in it to prevent the camera lens from getting scratched if you put it on the table, and comes with a screen protector! All for $10, i'd look into it, best purchase i've ever made on a phone.

Ok so the diztronic case came in and it fits pretty good, really solid and gives it a nice grip and doesn't add too much bulk to the phone.... Theres enough space for the headphone jack and ports and Mic and power button its really nice, I like it so for right now this is my permanent case, and it wasn't a bad price for just 10 bucks plus a screen protector which ill probably use when my current one peels off but over all I enjoy this case until the other ones come in
