In the search of a nice pouch-case with a belt clip for my Desire, I see most of the nice leather cases are Flip Style.
So I wounder (since I lack of imagination) how does this type of case work in the every day use.
Do you have to flip and fold the front panel to answer a call? Does it botter having it on your ear? I really like the Piel Frama, but it just dosen´t look practicle.
I really would apreciate any input. Thanks.
I am using Noreve. The case looks good and fit Desire perfectly.
Thanks Angler, those cases really look nice. So my question is, isn´t that flip, hanging down when open and answering calls, unconfortable???
How about a "slide case", such as this one?

You just pull the tab and out comes the phone, so no dangling flap. I've got one, it's surprisingly snug yet easy to use.
Obviously your phone will not be protected for the duration of the phone, but it is better protection when the phone is not being used - which is when these things crash into pavements anyway.
That's the one I'm using right now, HTC optional pouch... got it from expansys.
Yeap I was looking at that one too, but I missed the belt clip. My last phone was a HTC Kaiser witch came with a Pouch case for the belt.
But I supose, to keep thins good looking and simple, I will go with that one or maybe with this one

Yes, the case cover can be flipped to the back when answer call without problem because of the soft leather "hing" between the cover and the perfect-fit phone leather resin. You can also place the case vertically or horizontally with the belt clip.
Hi Angler,
thank you for pointing me out to Noreve. I got this pouch with a extra heavy duty clip. Its really great, even more I expected. So thank you very much.
I use nexus one sleeve from eBay

I got this belt holster here and I love it. It comes with a case that protects the phone and it's quick releasing.
I use this one with a case-mate yough case , it is excellent , very durable, and uses velcro instead of magnets. it has a hook on the clast to protect from flying off your belt. it rotates but dosnt free wheel on the axle, so you can position it without it sliding back out of position. and contains a credit card slot which i inserted a lead sheet from the dentist office as a radiation shield. it also has a back panel for inserting a microfibre cloth.
its about as badass as you can get.
the tough case is on case-mate.com and heres the link to the holster.

I also have the innocase. I love it. I had it on my last phone before this one. I don't think it can be beat!
I used the t-mo leather case for the touch pro my phone fits in it with a gel skin on.

I had one of them in the past (different Phone), and while they are very good to start with, the suction loses grip due to the lever mechanism failing.
That seems to be great value

That's a very good price. Looks like quality too. Thanks
I am also looking for a holder but sort universal which would fit couple of different smartphones. I have Desire with a case and I am not sure if the one shown would hold it? Any ideas please.
Just ordered one of these - looks unbelievable value!
Thanks!

I have the Mugen 3200 battery, and with it a bigger backside, which can be seen here:

Do you think it will fit in that one?
Great find! Thanks!
Mine arrived today - looks really good!
I was looking for the HTC metallic cases online, and found them on many sites for $19.95, which I didn't want to pay after seeing some posts on here saying the clips wore down. I found them on htcpedia.com for $8.99 for metallic, and $9.99 for the clear and black ones.
Links:

http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-hard-shell-cases-1.html
I've never purchased from them but you can use Paypal and there are customer reviews on the products so I gave it a shot. Just thought I'd share in case anyone else was interested!
What do you mean by metallic? are they metal or metal apearance with a plastic build..
That's just what HTC calls them, I don't know. Look at the pics?
Does metallic mean they're like my case? Mine looks plastic but the inside of it is metal, something about the signal, I don't know for sure.
Hmmm, if someone does decide to order, would like to hear a review on the quality.

Search this forum. There previous posts about it. Also a user from here made a YouTube video about the black one. Just search for it on there.
Also ime metallic refers to color and not material.
Here, I got the links for you.

Black/clear: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTpyMfm_WHM & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nR-OS12ileM&feature=related
I have the clear case. Bought it at my local T-Mobile store for $9.99. It has a very snug fit but looks amazing as it lets the sexinesss of the G2 show. The case has the stand which allows the phone to sit up on its own in landscape or portrait. Be careful pulling case off the back of the phone. Very tight and if not careful will scratch phone.

I think you're mistaken - these HTC cases don't have kickstands. I think Body Glove or someone made that one.
Anyway, just a quick review - my case got here in 2 days with Fed Ex (NY to IL), I'd definitely buy from that website again. The case made the phone seem bulky at first but after the first day I was used to it, and it doesn't seem odd at all anymore. I like the finish a lot. I would recommend these cases, especially since they're made by HTC and that gives them the best fit possible.

They are great, but they really get in the way when typing on the top row of keys.
Nonsense!
I wish shipping wasn't $6
I am happy with the original case for touch HD.
I prefer to slide the phone out when using it.
My intention is to protect the phone from dust and scratch when in the pocket.
thanks.

I would prefer the below case. Anyone has used it before?
http://www.amazon.com/Monaco-Vertical-Carrying-Case-Sensation/dp/B0058V25ZY/ref=pd_sim_sbs_cps_2
so the name for such kind of case is "Vertical Carrying Case"
The below one seems to fit my needs perfectly. any idea?

What exactly is TPU? is it like rubber? i got the Gel Skin from tmobile store free when i got the phone and it serves its purpose but the case just attracts mad pocket lint and dust. does TPU do that?
i dont get why you guys would spend on a case so expensive when you can get one on ebay for a cheaper price.

I have the Melkco (orange stripe on black leather) and I can tell you a few things about it.
1. It looks great. This case lends the Sensation a genuinely premium look and feel. I was (and still continue to be) impressed.
2. It fits perfectly. The handset is snug and does not budge.
3. All sides are covered. The top covers the digitizer completely. No particulates make their way in.
Get it.

Personally I don't like tpu-like case. That is a cloth on the phone which make it look ugly.
I would like to get the phone out pocket, with leather case, looks decent,
draw out the phone, a shiny baby....
So far I like it fits the phone almost to well was really hard to get off I got the grey one. was a bit pricey but IMO worth it.

I have one too. So far so good, though I didn't use the screen protector that came with it.
Is there a docking cradle that works with this case? I bought the one recommended by Samsung (EDD-D200BEGSTD) but it doesn't fit at all. There's a ridge in front of the USB connector that pushes up against the keyboard. I don't think it would fit even with the case off...
you mind posting links to cases that fit well?
i didn't get a case for the new cell so far since i always had trouble with them falling off when sliding the keyboard in and out after a while or didn't really fitting at all.
but if there's one that you ppl could recommend... my new electronic toy could use a lil extra protection
Case/cover.
I'm trying to find that case in UK as from us it will be about £20 !
Does anyone know where to buy it in UK or any online site but cheaper.
If not I will go for it as need to protect my precious (still waiting to be delivered).
Can anybody post some photos of that case as even on google pictures they not show it cover fully unit.
Or maybe someone have any alternative?
Regards
Mac
UPDATE
I just bought SA-321
http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...alpro-hard-shell-case-with-silicone-core.html
And even found discount code 20% less !
So I am happy now, no need to buy screen protector even.
Looks pretty good honestly, I may get one of those feather cases.

(If you want to buy one there, you may want to use the coupon code "inc20" - saves you 20%.) (expired)
Just ordered the SA-321 for my wife's Relay. Btw, the coupon code no longer is active.
I have just received an SA-321 case. It's of very good quality and I like the rubbery-but-not-too-much feeling of it. Compared to the SA-316, it covers the power and volume buttons. It makes the power button a lot easier to press and the slide-out mechanism feels somewhat more solid.
I like it a lot.
Agree. Though a bit pricey, my wife fell in love with it instantly. Great feel, good protection, and looks great too.:good:
