Hard-Case which protects screen?

Well. I'm now quite used to HTC Smartphones, and mostly (except for the PDAs and the recent HTC click) used a metal-hard-case with plastic screen-cover (or even complete, as for the Universal).
So now I bought the HTC Sensation and thought. a "simple" vertical flip-out leather case won't protect the device to my needs. The recent HTC Click is small and "capable" of accidentaly falling from 1 meters to the floor. On each other device, there were hard-cases which protected the screen with a plastic-"window".
But as far as I have seen, the only "hard-cases" or metal-protectives leave the screen open, which seems senseless for me.
Does anyone know any shops (shipping to germany) for hard-cases for the Sensation?

I have yet to see a case with a plastic liner over the screen....
thats what you're asking, right?

yeah, something like http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_1800000_11000335&products_id=13742 this, but (logically) for the HTC Sensation.
They are selling hard-cases for the sensation there too, but they say "open screen", so without plastic over the screen.

Hey I have seen a awesome case made by the company oterbox it had a plastic screen protector and it had better convenience options to make up for losses of having it in the case I have the evo 4g and it came with a external kickstands to make up for me not being able to get to the one built with the phone

Cimo S-Line Back Flexible TPU Case for HTC One X (AT&T) - Clear

Bought thIs last week for my AT&T one x
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007WGFNHU/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
It's actually clear and not grey like the pic. I haven't tried the diztronic, but this one is better than any silicone or soft shell hard case I've ever used. Sides have grips and doesn't stick to my jeans or slacks pockets. It's sturdy and holes line up. Doesn't interfere with my bestskinsever screen protector either.i can set it on a surface upside down and only the case touches. Very thin compared to silicon or hard shell.
Best thing is it doesn't hide the beautiful white one x!!!!

I had the same one and it turned yellow pretty quick, I did really like the case though.

Oops lol. How quick?

I have that case in white. I like the protection it offers but the edges can irritate the palm after holding it for long enough.

its so hard to press the power key with this.. urghh... really liked it though. but pressing the power key is a mission itself

I have the blue one and love it. No color distortion after about a month. The power button is slightly hard to press, the volume rocker is a killer though. Near impossible

I have the black one and have had it since I got the phone on launch day. No issues with it, it's made for the international so not everything is 100% perfect but it's close and never had issues with any cables, etc. No problems pressing power/volume on mine either.

This case changes color quick for some reason..

Mine lasted about a month then the clear started to yellow really bad. I did really like the case other than that however.

AT&T OneX twrp2.2 CleanROM4.1SE

I just got the clear case today and I really like it. But is it just me or does it cover the second noise-cancelling mic on the back? Am I mistaken that it's under the power button on the back of the AT&T version?

That is the pin hole to take out the sum tray. The second mic is by the headphone jack

Just got the black one today, and it's pretty good, especially for $2. Must say though, the grip irritates my hand offer a while.

I heard my phone creak every time I put it on or took it off... Scared I might cause a stress fracture, I moved onto to cases made specifically for the AT&T version.
Just a heads up for you guys interested in buying this case.

Had mine since a week from phone release and doing just fine. No color distortion here. Power button a little tough to push but volume rocker is no problems at all. Overall a decent case to keep showing of the white of the phone.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

I have the clear one and the thing is yellow now. It also seems like the case was made for the international version because the camera cut out and micro USB plug are just slightly off and not centered, either that or its just the quality of the case.

Quick question..

Anyone here rock a naked phone? I have a htc case but im growing tired of it. Any drawbacks to rocking the phone naked?

I've been rocking naked since day 1 (May 4th), except for when I go golfing, don't want it bangin' around in the cart. Not a scratch or blemish on it, of course I take extreme care of my phone. I check my pockets and surrounding areas before setting my phone down, and always put it in my pocket with the screen toward my leg. I'm not saying it will remain this way forever, but this phone is too nice to be careless with.

No case or screen protector on mine and it's still in mint condition.

Is it just me, or does the image just leap off the screen when you're caseless? Something about the way the glass rolls off the edges makes the display more vibrant with touchable goodness.
But I'm still using the Incase Smooth when at the gym or anywhere it's going to see a lot of action.

You might scratch up the camera lens on the back. A proper case would protect that. I think there was a post though where someone cut out a circle from a screen protector to fix that issue.

I rock it in the nude. I wouldn't consider a screen protector, since it has the gorilla glass 2, but I would really like a pouch sometime soon. I don't like cases since they add so much bulk, it makes no sense to me to buy such a nice, sleek phone, and then ruin it with a monstrous case. Currently, I'm considering this pouch, but as of now have no HUGE desire to buy it.

Mines naked, every phone I ever had I carried around naked. I only use a case when going out on the dirtbike, amusement parks, etc. Not even a scratch bro

Thanks gentlemen.. I think im gonna go naked for a bit but keep my case on deck also..

Rock mine naked. I agree with the fellow who said why buy a slim sleek phone and add a fat suit to it. Makes no sense. And why buy a phone with the best HD screen and put a cloudy screen protector that will get a thousand more times scratched up than the gorilla glass. However I too baby my phone, as my wife won't buy me a new phone if I screw this one up

Aluminium home buttons

These aluminium buttons were delivered to me yesterday.
The home button rises just a tiny bit higher than the Spigen GLAS.t Slim screen protector.
They are textured, so they feel very nice A lot nicer than the jelly buttons that came with the Spigen protector :good:
Not bad at all for $2.69 for a pack of 5, including silver, black, pink, blue and purple.
Bought from this seller on eBay

How long did it take you to get these? I'm looking to buy some but dont want to pay $10
for spigen's if ill be just using one.

I think it was between 2 and 3 weeks.

Quick question. I get a free button from the case I ordered, if I put the button on, would I be able to put the spigen protector on without taking the button off?

No. I would if my iloome white jelly button didn't match with my case though.

I had this on my s3 and liked it since the stock button on it was almost flushed and it was hard to sometimes press it. But seems on the s4 the stock button is more raised so this will make the button too thick and you might end up pressing the button too much. Just be careful not to damage the button. It also might now be more susceptible to accidental button press when it's in your pocket waking up the screen and drain your battery faster.

Anyways there's an arrow where the adhesive seems to be do I remove that or something? I didn't and it seems to be kinda wobbly since the adhesive doesn't cover the whole home button makes it a little uneven... not that bad but I was just wondering if it was just me or is that how it is

I got these and love them! I have the red one on right now, but I don't remember if the arrow comes off... There definitely is adhesive on the back of the aluminum button, so additional adhesive is unnecessary. Here is a pic, taken with my fiance's RAZR M, so it's not S4 quality, lol.

I've got these buttons and love them but my black one of already losing some push it's stickiness. I keep having to push it back into position

I've got the generic aluminium buttons off ebay and they work great, also, they are really cheap.

What's the point of this?? I don't get it....
is it just to change the color or is there a "functional" use for it?

I can't comment on the aluminum buttons, but I need the raised home button for ease of access. With the screen protector and the fact that the raised lip of my case is so close to the home button, it's too recessed for easy pressing.
The raised button solves all that.
