LOL interesting..
a little too 'hip' for my phone but certainly neat
hahaha ok ok ill admit, it is a little too hip....
Lol...with todays technology I think that classifies as retro.
If it didnt look so bulky I would order one. They should have just printed the cassette look on a regular TPU case.
I just bought one on a whim!!
Now I need a matching wallapaper/ theme.
Have to admit...not at all what I was expecting but agree it is very cool (and retro).

Haha yep I would do the exact same! Neat though. Is it plastic or rubber?

it is silicone. i have really gotten used to tpu cases and their tight fit. im not a big fan of silicone cases at all these days. this is BETTER than most SILICONE cases, but it is still no tpu. pretty much if you dont mind a silicone case you will like this, but if you love the tpu cases, dont bother. it looks really cool and it fits really nice. it wraps around the front of the phone which i always like to see a case do. if they made it a little tighter i would reccomend it, but it just doesent fit the way i want it to :/
Well thank you for the info,
not to hijack or anything but what is the difference between silicon and TPU?
tpu is thermo-polyurethane. it feel like a hard plastic case and has the shine of a hard plastic case but it is completely flexible. a tpu case never streches either, they typically fit tighter than silicone cases from the start too. and since it deosent strech it wont slip off a few months later like most silicone cases. also since tpu is smoother and not as gummy as silicone, dirt doesent really cling to it, and you can clean it with a wet papertowel or some windex.
Okay, got it now. Thanks.
They have these in lots of different colors too if you look on amazon, for lots of different phones too! Pretty awesome but I love my kickstand case too much to give it up.
I'm debating on black or creme. Idk if I could give up my case that protects probably a lot better though.
That is pretty cool, but I think an NES controller case would be even cooler.
i got creme! i thought it looked more tapey haha it protects pretty well to be honest with you

For those of you who like the grip of a "skin" but a little bit of hard case too
I just picked two of these up on Ebay for $8.99 shipped. The only way I can describe them is a silicone skin/hard case hybrid.
It's basically a silicone case with a hard cover that holds the silicone case on a bit better plus gives a little bit o' hard cover type protection. Every silicone case i've had in the past liked to slip off pretty easily - this doesn't feel like it's going anywhere anytime soon!
The ones I got were the lime green and carbon fiber variants, but they can be also had in pink, blue or black. I thought the lime green with black screamed Android!
If nothing else, they are definitely unique!
Ebay seller's name is "moderntechs" . Search with keywords on Ebay "Nexus Hard Silicone" and you'll pull them right up!
wow that's pretty awesome. I know there was a company that made something similar for iPhones, and some people here were emailing them to petition for a N1 model. I have to say this probably does exactly the same thing for much, much cheaper.
Nice find!
EDIT: does this case make your phone really hot when there is heavy data usage?
I think I worded that poorly.. $8.99 EACH shipped, but still, not a bad deal.
do you have an invisible skin or best skin ever? I have a best skin ever and have found that a couple(admittedly cheap) hard snap on cases I've purchased wouldn't close completely due to this skin, but it sounds like these are a bit different?
I have no additional skin but I have no doubts this would fit with one of those.
I believe it's a knock-off for Casemate tough hybrid
doesn't look the same but idea is identical

that'd be nice. I look forward to it
how fast does this guy ship?
just bought one myself.
I ordered both of mine on a Monday and they arrived on Friday. That's about normal for first class mail between California and Florida though.
I say invest in a good case. Get Seidio Innocase II. Feels very good in the hand. All worth the money.
I got my case on Monday. I can do a video review as well if anyone likes..
Quick take: It has a real solid feel, looks pretty cool, and even my fashion conscious girlfriend agrees. There were a few *small* nitpicks with the fit that I had that are hard to explain in typing, but it was definitely worth the 8 bucks. Again, it feels considerably solid and I like that it works with a bestskinever where a traditional hard case does not.
Deal breaker: It's so solid, that's kind of a pain to take off of the phone. I have a desktop dock that I use every night and live with the fact that I just have to remove the standard gelli type soft cases, which is easy to do. So, for that reason I probably won't be using it much, but if I didn't use a dock, I'd use this case 24/7
I have to agree 100% - very solid, especially for the price!
I looked at the MyBat website and I see that they make similar cases for other phones, so I've been sending any admirers looking to see if they can find one for their phones.
I came across a bunch of other models for other phones on Amazon by searching for MyBat and Hybrid.
I didn't get around to making a video review, but damn this case is nice. Very solid, and no obnoxious logos *cough* Case Mate *cough*
Well worth the money, great fit. Only issue I had was with my screen protector, I didn't have it applied perfectly center, so the edge of the case would cause the screen protector to lift and bubble. I have since reapplied a new one, and all is golden!

Same thoughts exactly. Definitely worth the money, does the same job that a 30 dollar case does, at 8 bucks.

From what I've read its one of the best cases you can buy, I don't use it because it makes your phone as big as a HTC G1/Dream. I do use the Case-mate Barely There chrome snap-on case and from what I have personally found out is that they make the highest quality cases that I have bought for my Nexus One.
-------------------------------------
Sent from my Nexus One
I have it, I'm using it. I love it It's absolutely the best you can buy with the price, free shipping, good customer service. IMO, It doesn't significantly make your phone bigger or bulkier. It feels like a solid rock
I use this case as well as the new Otterbox Commuter case and they are both very good quality cases. I believe that the Otterbox offers a little more protection and feels better and is easier to pull out of your pocket but all in all, this is a good sturdy case! I do like the fact that you have different color options whereas the Otterbox does not yet...
Thanks for the reply guys!
I also like the chrome one here: http://www.case-mate.com/Google-Cases/Case-Mate-Google-Nexus-One-Barely-There-Cases.asp
It looks nice and less expensive, might get that instead.
I just got the Tough Case like 3 days ago. It is amazing! I don't think it makes the the phone that much larger, I actually like the texture and sturdiness of the case, its pretty smooth.
Had mine just over a week, love it. Good fit, good feel, free decent screen protector.

Tough Case, if you do a quick search I've put up a picture of my pink/black one.
case mate Tough Case is the best so far. i have two buddy's at work and they have different ones that cost them about 8 bucks ,and they ask me were to get it and i told them . ever since i had it i don't have any problem and trust me i recommended to every one...
I was in the market for some cases too for my wife who tends to just sort of abuse her phone (just throws the phone in her purse and cup holders) so I decided to get the tough case for both our phones and glad I did...its solid and well made. The holes match up perfectly and the silicone and abs are snug to each other.
Photos are Pink/Black and Black/Gray
Just ordered this case off of Case-Mate

I have a casemate gelli, it's pretty awesome. Very snug, minimal bulk, and looks great. Sure not as much protection as some other cases, but certainly increases the drop protection.

Looks good. I prefer innocase 2 by seidio. Very happy with mine and well worth the money IMHO. it looks more streamline than the pics ive seen on this thread.
The problem with the barely there case is the lack of protection on the bottom and top of the phone. That is where I got 90% of the scratches on my g1.
(see below)
i have the Barely There Case
for my N1
and i love it
especially because i wear skinny jeans and it fits on my front pocket perfectly

all other cases made the N1 feel like i was still trying to rape my pocket with my old myTouch lol
I just reviewed 3 Sensation 4G cases on my website. This is the one I liked best
http://www.amazon.com/HTC-SENSATION-SKIN-CASE-QUBITS-BRANDED/dp/B005A2UR4W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1315591998&sr=8-1
The first and best case is the gel skin solid black made by Quibits. It is a black case that attempts to keep the Sensation’s style by having a solid black stripe in the middle. It feels great in my hands with a solid feel that will not slip from anyone’s fingers. The case also covers a bit of the front for when you drop your phone face first. It is a made of flexible plastic, called TPU, but when put on the android smartphone it becomes quite solid. The included microfiber cloth is a bit cheap but for 7 bucks this case is a steal.
I hope that helps! For those who want to check out my article

Nice reviews. These really help people that are like me and are totally anal about buying stuff and want to make sure they are getting a good product. I already have the Yoobao TPU case shipping on its way right now, but if I don't like it I'll definitely give the Qubits case a try since most people seem to like it.

I have the Yoobao one and I am actually not using it lol. It's ok, adds a bit more bulk to my liking but looks nice. I have the white/clear one.
+1. I own this case too, and it's great. Barely adds any additional girth to the phone and is easy to take off and put on. Great look and feel.
You cant really go wrong with that case. Its fantastic. Im currently using it right now.

I really want a Ringke case but that cut out really urks me. I know why they have it and I know most of them have it. Any good cases without it that are like ringke or at least in the same price range?
The G2x Bodyglove Grasp case is really really nice. They used to have em at walmart (mentioning that makes it seem like a cheap case, but ignore that because it isnt), but they seem to have stopped carrying recently.

I can always return it, its not a big deal. I couldn't find much on the case on the web and YouTube. What material is it and does it collect dust and are the power and volume buttons still responsive with it on? All the TPU cases I tried they were hard for me to use the buttons.
It's hard to explain, but the buttons are made with another material so it's very comfortable to push the buttons. It feels better than without a case actually. Ill see if i can take a picture for you

I bought this case the day I bought my phone, about two months ago. It's literally the best case I've had for any device. It isn't a hard case so it feels flexible in the hand. But it isn't a gel case, either, and feels sturdy enough to withstand. I recommend this case for sure. 9/10.

It's a weird polymer material. I've never felt another case like this one. The buttons are as easy to press as the phone naked. If its like $7 as the link said, I'd pick it up. I spent $14 on mine at WalMart and would gladly do it again.
hmm...I just ordered like 2 other $2-3 ones from ebay to test them out (literally yesterday or the day before - haven't even gotten them yet), but as soon as I saw this thread and the pictures, I bought it. lol

Ignore my ignorance but, why are the corners cut out on all the cases?
because theyre made for the O2X and the antenna for that phone is where the cutout is

This one is much better quality than the $2 silicone cases we see on ebay. I agree that I am taking a chance with the silicon case. It offers zero protection against a fall, but it fits nicely in Belkin GPS Dash mount I have. I use this phone for GPS.
