What case do you use?

I use a Bodyglove clear case I got at my local T-Mobile store. It's actually a Vibrant case, but it's a perfect fit. It also has a kickstand, which I love (perfect for watching videos.)
Edit: This is the one I was talking about.

I have the body glove and love it... gives the phone a little more size and the rubber coating really provides grip, love the kick stand when I have to use the belt clip, but it's mostly in my pocket or on the desk.

Otterbox
I use an Otterbox case. Absolutely love it but I'll have to check out the body glove case.

Otterbox is the best case!

Same case. Love it.

I'm using a power-skin case. It charges my battery up to four times. Until I charge the power-skin up. So if my phone dies, it will keep my phone alive for 4 extra hours until I can charge it.

Otterbox = Best case ever!

SGP Ultra Slider Case!

Otter Box fits it perfectly love it

+1 To all the OtterBox lovers. It gives you the best of both worlds. Soft rubber inner lining so it don't scratch it like the plastic ones do, and a hard candy shell... mmmm... candyy... sorry got distracted. But even with the 2 layers it doesn't really add that much to the thickness of the phone. Perfectiona! I'm an Idiot.

I use Trident "Cyclops" Case, It is a awesome case for protection.

I run it naked no case lol

Otterbox Commuter - got an Otterbox for my old Blackberry and it saved it multiple times, wouldn't get anything less for this phone (and the case is awesome).

trident case
+1 on the trident case. when i got mine the guy at the store was repeatedly dropping his phone frm 8ft off the ground just to show the protection level. I would never recomend pushing your cases capabilities like this but none the less i was sold after that! U guys should check out there website (google trident cases) the KRAKEN is a beast!

Best hard case for sensation 4g?

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
Thanks

How about this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/4-x-New-Mesh-Hard-Case-Cover-HTC-Sensation-G14-/230640628333
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.

nillkin one ,check ebay uk or other marketplace

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.

Good case for pockets

Hello there, I have the casemate pop case and the rubber sides really make it hard to pull out of a pocket. Does anyone know or have any cases to recommend that slide easily out of pockets and are thinner? Preferably a case without rubber on it. Maybe the Seidio Surface case? Body glove? Tell me what you think! Thanks in advance!

Personally, I'm thinking about getting this case:
h ttp://www.myincipio.com/Samsung-Infuse-4G-Cases-Accessories/Incipio-Samsung-Infuse-4G-SILICRYLIC-Hard-Shell-Case-with-Silicone-Core.asp
Inner soft shell for impact protection, outer plastic shell isn't pocket sticky.
Hope that helps!

Also the tpu cases are a harder silicone I have it and its awesome. Very flexible but durable.

Case-Mate Barely There. It's perfect for pockets.
Only con is it has a little bit less to offer in the protection department, but it hardly adds any bulk at all to your phone. I have had friends surprised that there was a case on my phone.

Me too love it
infused infuse helping other infused infuses?

out of my TPU case and the platinum I like the tpu case better, though the cheap free one I got with my recent spare battery purchase is just a tad too thick around the charging port and keeps the charger from making contact. easy fix
I really need to find the link for that..spare stock size battery, tpu case, screen protector all for about $12

TPU case all the way!

I like my platinum case. See the thread about removing it before buying though.

Seidio Surface Case. It's not cheap though. 24 bucks @ Amazon, free 2nd day air if you a Prime member.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0058BUHHM
I got one for my Atrix and loved it so much I got it for my Infuse.

Another vote for the TPU case, it's thin enough to not get in the way, has enough grip to prevent slips, and the material is more durable than you would imagine for a flexible case.

What is the thinnest case available?

I really dislike using any case at all on my phones. I've never used them in the past. But this phone is just so darned slippery, a case is practically necessary to keep from dropping it all the time. So right now I'm using the Diztronic case, and while it is quite thin, it still IMHO adds significantly to the phone's size. Are there any cases that are more just like a thin skin? I am not looking for any drop protection; just looking to make the back of the phone less slippery. I suppose some kind of sticker could also do the job...
Any ideas appreciated. TIA!

Might want to check out ghost armor or something like a full body skin. Basically a screen protector but for your whole phone.
Or check out the incipio feather or one of the barely there cases.

Full body skins are a terrible idea and a recipe for destroying your phone by corrosion, especially on a device with a sealed battery like this one.
Use an HTC hard case or something similar. They are very light and thin, but they will also easily break if you take it off and put it back on many times.

I use the diztronic case and it adds almost no bulk yo the phone at all.

Body glove makes a nice thin case. I bought one at walmart for $20ish.

Thinnest cases are these thin shell cases. I have the black one and it's really thin and doesn't hide the beauty of the phone.

I have both the black one and the transparent one.
They are really thin and add minimum bulk to the phone. However, they also barely protect the phone at all, probably only good for keeping the back of the phone from scratches.
At the back, the case is level with the red/blue ring around the camera lens, i doubt it protects the lens at all.
The transparent one has a frosted feel and is still pretty slippery, but it's better than without a case at all.
I would recommend the black one as it gives a rubbery texture and it's pretty grippy.
Overall i love how the cases manage to give me minimum protection and bulk.
i chose the One S over the X partly due to it's thiness, so i bought these cases to keep it that way.
Cheers!

nice

It really seems to be the thinnest one. However, I haven't seen the "perfect" case yet. I hope someday someone will do it...

I really want a nillkin but I just can't get myself to pay $20 for something I am sure I will end up not using.

only found them on amazon and they will not ship to Canada; any other source?

I've used one of the inexpensive (sub $5) mesh cases off eBay. Extremely thin, feels great in the hand, but quality could be better. Then again I paid three bucks for it.
Dust definitely gets behind the case through all the holes, but I'm willing to deal with that to get the additional heat dissipation for those times when it gets toasty. I just wish I could find a vented TPU case instead of this hard rubberized plastic.

Thank you, I will be looking into those cases

I like the Seidio Active line, myself. I've used them on all of my Android phones and they offer great protection without adding much weight or bulk.

I bought the ballistic slim case, it should be arriving tomorrow. Seems decent, I bought other ballistic cases and was overall satisfied with them

That one protects very well. Just doesn't look too pretty haha

Just purchased a incipio silicrylic, looking into the candyshell and feather cases now

Cool man! I don't doubt you will like it. I'm staying tuned to this thread as I have a bit of a case addiction.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

My wife uses the incipio sillicrylic it is a nice case, however I just cant stand the case being loose on the sides of my phone. I am using the speck candyshell and it is built well with no flapping of the inner layers.
The only knock against the candyshell is don't plan on taking it off and on a lot it is a beast to get the case off the phone.

Right now I'm using the Speck Candyshell with a Steinheil ultra crystal (I think) screen protector. I cn honestly say that out off all the cases I've used on all the phones I've owned, it seriously is amazing. Best one I've ever used. I always had an issue with dust, dirt, lint, or whatever else getting into my cases. So I started cleaning them every day. Well with this case, it's not an issue one bit!! It's a hybrid case. So it has a rock hard outer shell, with a nice hard silicone inside. The corners are almost "split" So if you drop it, the silicone will absorb all of the impact. Also, the edges on the front around the screen are all that same hard silicone. Couple it with a good seen protector and your good to go!!
Since its a hybrid case it doesn't add much thickness to the phone at all. It's amazing. Buttons all work perfect too.
It might be on the the expensive side, and a b*tch to get on and off at first... But it is WELL worth it!

When playing with the silicone, yeah it is (compared to the Ballistics case for instance) but in real use it's treated me well. Did you get the incipio in a color other than black? If so, I may be interested in purchasing from you if you don't want it.
