i had an iphone for over a year it was brand new after all that time because of a hard case + screen protector
and a good screen protector too
i bought some cheap crap at ebay its horrible (like 1€ each)

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...

How about this one made specifically for the Desire:

Hi
Anyone here got this case? Looks good, what is the material like? they say its not silicone but still flexible?
http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=199613
Okay, just though what the heck for £2.64 , got this one on ebay, sounds the same, will let everyone know what its like once I get one
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BLACK-Soft-Ge...essories_RL&hash=item3a5a65d0e5#ht_2273wt_772
Can you let me know how the DC Mugen one goes? I'm a big fan of their cases and they said they weren't going to make any so I ended up buying one from somewhere else.
I went for the Epik cases when I got my Nokia 5800 and they protected the phone amazingly. It wasn't too big on the phone and bounced well lol. Really protected the phone.
Ah. Despite buying one from another company, I'm going to get this.
Cheers

i ordered one of these today to replace my nexus gel cover. it looks like an improvement, will see when it arrives
FWIW - the Nexus one case I purchased as an interim case whilst waiting on something better to come out appears to be an Epik case.
The case I got is the one with the red Nexus One badge on the back.
Cost about 3 quid off ebay...
I just ordered a Mugen Epik specifically for the Desire - I bought the TPU one.
Will give you the rundown once I've recieved it.
Anyone know if there is a totally transparent one available in this type. The only ones that I could find are for the Nexus One.
Reviews of this one (any colour!) would be good though, looks a slightly bulky in the pictures but I'm guessing it will be the same as the silcone cases.
Got this one today.Am very happy with it. £2.28 delivered
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Google-Nexus-...sesPouches&hash=item5191cc07e9#ht_1658wt_1161
I'm getting this one. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Silicon-Skin-case-cover-HTC-Desire-Bravo-G7-film-/230470479711

mine arrived today, perfect fit. its the same as the nexus gel covers with the red badge on the back, but it fits the desire properly and everything lines up.

How long did the delivery take? Any chance of pictures? The ones on eBay seem out of proportion for some reason, making the case look a bit bulky.

i ordered it on 3rd May, so just over a week. it's not bulky, it looks the same as the nexus gel cover i've been using for a month when fitted to me.
i'll see if i can sort some pics out later.
the screen protector that comes with it is one of the ones with the 2 tabs to apply, also comes with a cloth.

Thanks for that. I currently have a Nexus cover too. Think I will go ahead and order it. I did actually want a TOTALLY clear (Desire specific) case but as of yet, all those that I've seen are either tinted or coloured.

Nice one. Your pictures do the case far more justice than the ebay pics. The smoked black is starting to grown on me.
@str355: That's an actual 'hard case' isn't it? I do prefer the 'soft' ones.
mistake.... oops
Mine arrived yesterday (DC Mugen), it's a perfect fit for the Desire.
Just a tad bit annoying trying to unlock the phone, you have to press on the button harder with the skin on, and there's less of a 'feel' as to whether the button is pressed down or not.
hi guys, anyone know of a case that has a kickstand, but not the zenus one or the pdair clip on thing. pdair is too big for me and i just dont like the zenus one.
Thanks in advance
I have found one but the problem is I dont know how to order it. This one looks great and stylish.

+1 Plzzzz help! I found an awesome kickstand case which is the only one there and i wish to have it by all means..! ;-S
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
that is FABULOUS! Where on earth did you manage to find that website?
I did a lot of research. It was like at the end of google search. lol.
Any other similar websites that you want to share? You seem to be a grandmaster on this.
As for using the website, use google toolbar to translate the page. The first one says case. The problem is what happens next. The selections are not in the same order as the pictures. I can't figure out which one is for the kicker stand case. There's one called crocker diary, but it comes in a whole bunch of different colours, whereas the stand only comes in black...
Found another one (in the same website).
http://item.gmarket.co.kr/challenge...cd=GE&pos_class_cd=200001759&pos_class_kind=M
The glossy one has the word "sold" next to it, so I guess only the matte one is available. 9,100 won, which is about 7.64 US$. Of course, the shipping fee is likely to be more than triple that.
I have finally found the case where the website is english. I guess they recently posted this because it wasn't there before. Here you go!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180552523253&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
I just order mines. I'll let you know how it is when it arrives.
Sweet. Did they mention how long it will take to arrive? Can't wait for your review.
I should prowling korean sites more often.

Ahhh. You guys are evil! Stop making me wanting to order one without waiting for an review!
*Goes off to kidnap someone who can read korean*
HOLY ****!
I Tried buying that case of Gmarket but kept coming up with errors so i decided to buy the mesh case from ebay which cost me SGD$20(USD$15) with shipping.
The seller seliing the kickstand case also sells the mesh case for only about USD$10 with shipping too!!
Damnit.. bought my case too earlier, i wanted the kickstand case so badly, but i would prefer the rubberised one as seen on Gmarket
Wait, what? There's a rubberised kick stand case? Link please

The one on Gmarket that the other guy is talking about is a matt black color - it is hard case, not rubber. This one is glossy black. I also saw white glossy and a pink color as well.
Is there a picture of the matt black case? I haven't seen one yet. I want to know if the silver bit is matt as well.

The metal piece (the standing piece) is still metal.
it looked like rubberised or soft-touch to me ...
Goddamn that kickstand case (ebay link) is so sexy!!! I can only just resist buying it, as I've already spent too much on accessories...
Only problem is, does it properly clip on to the phone? It looks like it doesnt lock over the front of the phone 0_0.
But in all seriousness, that thing is godly. Koreans sure know how to design quality products!!!
I'm also tempted to try and replicate the metal part for a homemade kickstand... sounds like a good project!!!
Anyone got pics of the cases that will be selling in tmo store?

ya here is one they have 2 other ones
any idea if the plastic is the same 'soft-touch'?
Seems kind of a shame to lose that "premium feel" once you put a case on it.
its similar to the gel skin the have for the g2 its like almost a soft rubber feel

Here some pictures of the Body Glove case from TMoUS. It is about the same thickness/bulk of the TMoUS Gel case. Very nice quality but dread taking it apart! The two halves snapped together very firmly. I compared it to the Gel case and both are great choices depending on whether you need a belt clip/stand.
I keep mine in the larger pouch I got with my hd2 . Fits snugly

I just ordered one online for like 17.99 with a free shipping code. I'll see if that is the same as the one pictured. I'll repost back and let you all know so others can order it with free shipping at a better price.
I have the expansys cradle on order as well but is not released for another 40 days or so. I also ordered a leather verticle leather case from ebay(a cheappy one) for work, but I guess I'll see which I'd prefer. I ordered the body glove one for the reason that it can kind of serve as a dock.

LOL, instructions are for sissies! I just wanted to torture myself pondering why there was a large slot on the side without access to anything. Guess you saved some of my remaining brain cells! Thanks!
Oh, BTW, it is testament to HTC that I have not needed access to the battery for a forced reboot. Nicely done HTC!

Samsung Clear Cover Note 9 Transparent
FYI..
Actually samsung did it with Note9, found it by luck in one of our local online stores here in Dubai. I don't think its available on Amazon anywhere (US, UK & CANADA) YETTTT...
Sharing it here so if others are interested, they can keep an open eye around waiting for it.
This is mostly a plastic snap on case, not a tpu.
Ordered it, & i didn't receive it yet, will update this upon receiving it. If any is interested.
The local online store doesn't ship internationally, so am not sharing it here.
I want this. Keep me updated OP
I’m really looking forward to this case. It is the only one of the official cases that appears to be out of stock everywhere. I had this hard case for my Note 8 and even though it doesn’t seem to offer that much protection it provides a perfect grip and make the withd of the phone ideal to not slip at all from the hand.
Doesnt it come with the phone?

What comes with the phone is a tpu cover, this one is hard plastic with a very thin profile and the best grip..

I've bought it today. It looks very nice and slim. Of course it fits like glove. It has a grippy feeling which is good for me. And it is soft not a hard case. I'm glad I've bought it Hope it does not turn to yellow soon.
Could you please upload some pictures? I wonder if it is the same case that came in the box ?
Looks like they tinted it slightly blue/gray which should reduce the yellowing effect.
I want the hard plastic case like they had for the Note 8. Felt like you didnt even have a case on it. Oh well.

I bought this generic one on 8/15, it delivered today:
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/292656916441
Real nice fit, ultra slim profile & no rainbow effect.
FWIW, it does not have the raised corners (or any raised edges) like the PC OEM Case for the Note 8.
Protection is as minimal as it gets, top & bottom are fully exposed, oversized cutouts for the buttons.
IMHO, perfect......
@Semantics
EDIT:
Seems the selller has updated/substituted what I purchased.
The one in the link is not what I have,SMH,sorry about that........
@Semantics
EDIT #2
Here's one that closely resembles what I ordered:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Galaxy-Not...-Cover-Clear/163216970699?hash=item26007d53cb
It has a bit more coverage,but,the buttons are still cut out,vs the protuding button coverage on most cases.
Yeah,a bit pricier than the one I originally linked,but,it's cheaper than the OEM Samsung one & actually available now.
