Hi,
About cases, it matters how much you want to spend. I myself have bought a Brown Sena Ultraslim Pouch which is very stylish & high quality.
Here a few websites:
www.senacases.com
www.noreve.com/
www.vajacases.com
www.pdair.com/
These companies are the best for high quality cases
Glad I could help

I just got the case-mate 2 part case, $30 plus 'free' screen protector. Not a ton of grip, but it's nice with the hard back, over a rubber case for extra shock protection.
All the holes line up great and doesn't cover the sensors at all.

Hi. I wonder if custom nexus one cases are perfect fit for the desire?
One more for that list would be www.fortte.com
I had a case from there for xperia. Pricey but extremely high quality leather and build quality.
I see they do a slim case similar to the sena for the nexus one.
Cheers

I have been using the Case Mate Tough Case for about a week and it's awesome. It's the closest thing you'll get to an Otterbox Commuter case. One thing I noticed which I found useful was that is has a nice rubber lip around the front edge of the phone which gives your fingers a great sense of spacial boundaries so when you hold the phone your fingers aren't accidently touching parts of the screen and bugging it out. I found the screen to do that a lot in landscape mode when I used my phone without a case - I also have large hand.

The dimension of the Desire is slightly different. Go to www.GSMARENA.com & compare the the dimensions. I think it might still fit.

wanted : case / pouch for desire + flexiskin

as per subject can any one suggest a decent case / pouch for a desire + a flexiskin ?
Thank

Have a look here:

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..

Oversized Case / Sleeve

Can anyone recommend a case/sleeve large enough to fit a SGS with a silicon case?
I ordered a Mofi case which was nice but due to the Silicon case I have it didnt fit inside.
I know it might seem a bit of an overkill having a silicon case and a sleeve to keep it

check this one out
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7638725&postcount=403
i'm loving it

Thanks for the suggestion, it does look nice however i'm more after a sleever/pouch that I can slide it in and out of rather than a folding case.

Those mofi cases come in varied sizes.
Perhaps an xl version will suit?
Mp4 nation had them quite cheap, not too sure about now.
They also have leather style slip cases for the iphone which I picked up, too small for the sgs though.

How about this one:
http://shop.brando.com/pull-tab-holster_p3539c4d4.html
It has various sizes, and "size F" fits SGS quite nice.

[Q]Which Case for HTC Desire Z?

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.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA

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.

Slim case

I love the design of this phone so I want the slimmest possible case I can find. Can anyone recommend a very slim case?

same as you, didn't really want to cover it up too much since the design is so nice. I went with this and I think it will be a good match. I have the white phone so I ordered the white case:
http://www.obostore.com/nillkin-ultra-slim-hard-shield-faceplate-for-htc-one-x-p-5711.html

lots of folks recommended this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007X4XS3C/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
I ordered it and it will be here Tuesday

You could get the official ones by HTC. They take minimalism to a whole new level bit the downside is its so expensive for a flimy piece of plastic. Or the feather cases by Incipio.

i ordered the black & gray ROCK cases and the case mate barely there case. the ROCK cases look nice but are definitely made for the International X. although they fit the One XL, the camera opening is about1-2 mm lower at the top. not a big issue for me at all. however, the case-mate fits perfectly and looks best! i like how the sides are angled for a perfect fit, e.g., fits the One XL's angled sides like a glove. the obvious downside is the limited protection, e.g., exposed top and bottom.
i sold both ROCK cases to a friend who has the International X and kept the case-mate. i added a couple of pics that (hopefully) show how slim and form-fitting the case-mate case is...

im going with the amzer tpu luxe arigle case had it with captivate and like it and did its job and looks good

Has anyone gotten one of these yet? Looks nice, I like the texture on the back. I've never heard of this site, reputable?
I got this Speck case from the AT&T store when I bought my phone. I hated it in 2 days. It's way too thick, makes the phone huge and heavy.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1653829

I haven't gotten it yet, but I did get a shipment email the next day, so it looks like they are on the ball. I'll post impressions when I get it, should be in a few days...

I liked the case for the whole 5 seconds it lasted me
Funny part is that I was planning on spray painting it black cos that case only comes in orange/blue. And while i was taking the case off it snapped on me. Good thing is AT&T warranties out accessories for a whole year. I have a feeling im going to be using that warranty a lot.
You get what you ask for looking for a slim case. They don't offer any protection at all. Which for me is fine. I just don't like how hot the phone gets without a case. I ended up getting the full body zagg.

i broke my orange version of this case too. if you like to swap out cases every other day (like me) this case may not be for you because you will eventually break it, no doubt about it. i've been luckier with my blue case as it hasn't snapped on me yet.

Just ordered an Amzer Shellster case found here:
http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-AMZ9380...PA1Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338902558&sr=8-1
It's not the most "minimalist" case out there but it seems sturdy enough for repeated application and removal (which is important to me since I use multiple cases). It also comes with a holster, which most slim cases do not. It also looks like it offers great protection for the camera.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMdD2Q35_XA
I'll put up some pics and do a "mini-review" if anyone is interested.

So the case-mate barely there doesn't specify on amazon whether its for the international or att version. However I have heard that it fits ours just fine. Can anyone verify?
And also does it come with a screen protector?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA

Received my Amzer Shellster yesterday. I can confirm that it fits the AT&T version of the HOX.
Pros
Accurate Fit
Cutouts line up perfectly
Protects camera
Front lip keeps screen from touching when face down
Comes with a holster
Cons
Minamilistic case means it provides less protection than traditional cases
Does not cover top and bottom
Soft touch finish can be a little slippery
While the holster uses "pressure" to hold the phone it does not have an actual mechanism to secure it
Overall, the case is really nice for what it's meant to do. It is advertised as a slim case and it provides all the protection that it entails.
I have included some pics in the attachments showing the cutouts and fit, as well as the holster and front lip.

I got the case mate barely there. Overall I really like it, I wish it was a little thicker because the camera still sticks out a little.

Purchased this as well. Very small and seems to do the trick. I wish it had a stand though.

I recommend the cruzerlite. Only $10

Are you talking about this?
http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/htc/one-x/htc-one-x-ultra-thin-air-series.html
"Will the Ultra Thin Air fit the AT&T version of the HTC One X?
We don't recommend the Ultra Thin Air with the AT&T version as this case was originally designed for the international version. The AT&T version of the phone is slightly longer. While the case my be compatible, it may not be a perfect fit."

Thanks for the pics and review. How long did shipping take? Your review should have its own thread, those photos and review is great.
Plus was it really only $14.99?
