I got my Case-Mate Tough and I am really liking it.
The hard outer shell allows for easy removal from pockets, which is huge for me.
Overall, I like it a little more than an Otterbox Defender I had for the iPhone. I feel like it will protect just as well and it is simpler and less bulky. I feel like a normal drop, from a normal height, it will hold up just as well as a Defender.
I would definitely recommend this case.
I ordered one last night. I had it for the Nexus One and loved it. Can't wait for it to get here.
Where did you buy it from and do you have any pics of the case.
Any comments on the included screen protection? I am trying to decide between ordering one of these and waiting for an Otterbox commuter or defender.
Screen protection?

most screen protectors that come with these cases are garbage, you're better off shelling out a few extra bucks and getting a zagg or clear coat.

Don't guess you looked very hard. My first Google search brought this up:
http://www.case-mate.com/HTC-Desire-HD/Case-Mate-HTC-Desire-HD-Barely-There-Case.asp
$19.99 direct from CaseMate. A little cheaper than on the AT&T site that had them for 24.99 but I don't know about shipping costs.
Got one for the Inspire and one for the HD2, $29.98 total shipped.
Case-Mate site has free 4-6 day shipping.
Thanks for the heads up OP!
i picked one up at work today and it really nice, color me impressed. Still thinking about getting the pop! case from them as well.
Screen protector that came with it is not great but it works. Had a zagg on my first inspire and I didn't like it. I couldn't remove it and reuse it so AT&T has it now, but the spray you put on the film leaves bubbles underneath and that bugged me.

I just got mine today. I love the case but
I thought the case mate tough didn't cover the buttons?
and mine didn't come with a screen protector?
I ordered from ATT

I like the first link more ;-)
looks really tough
I preffer show my phone as it is... without cases!
Regards!
I prefer the Otterbox case. look-wise anyway.
got the otterbox - recommended.
The otterbox is brilliant !
Nice to hear praise for the otter box, I threw one in to my battery order. Actually not big on covering the phone up, but my bezel is all scratched and dented from my 3-4 drops plus a 'ride' through the internals of a recliner (if I had a certain other phone, it would be shattered not just blemished).

Looks like Seidio and Otterbox will both be releasing protection for our Sensation 4G devices real soon. IMO, Seidio provides a better product than Otterbox. I've used both, and Seidio to me just seems more stylish for the protection (I'll be buying the Active combo).

Is there an eta on these? I also was the active combo.

Pretty sure that by the end of this month there will be something... well that's what I hope for.
I'll be going with SURFACE, not that bulky.
They usually have something ready for purchase within a couple of weeks after putting up the "coming soon" spot.
glad to see these companies finally take notice to this device. ill be picking up the otterbox. had one for my nexus and liked it a lot. normally i dont have a handset long enough for some of these companies to put out a quality case (besides the generic gel ones)
I considered otter, but need a holster for work.

I also prefer Seidio...
Been waiting for Seidio...hope to see something real soon
I had seidio on my nexus one and liked it alot since it was the case and the holder. Am curious about otterbox but don't want anything too bulky.
Will probably just stick with seidio since I used them before.

I got the Gelli case from Case Mate and love it. I was worried about it feeling cheap but it's not at all - it's very firm and streamlined and looks nice without adding bulk. It also covers the volume rocker and power buttons which is good cause the crooked power button was really annoying me; it makes it feel more solid.
I've used Seidio for a few years now. I like their products but build quality doesn't look as good as Otterbox. Otterbox makes bulkier cases that are more expensive. Seidio is a step up from ebay generic junk. The only reason I haven't bought anything from Otterbox is that I usually have to take my phones out of their cases to use car docks (HTC OEM docks) and that takes too long with Otterbox.
i hope they built a good case this time because the case they built for the mytouch 4g was horrible!
I love Seidio's InnoCases with their awesome spring-clip belt clip. Can't wait.

Weird the black Active cases aren't ready yet, but the other colored ones are.
Just ordered the Sapphire Blue Active Combo with the 15% discount. I really want the Trident Aegis but the holster seals the deal cuz I hate stuff (except money) in my pockets.
All cases are now live fellas! Dont forget the summer11 code for 15%. Black Active combo...here I come!
and no TPU in the case.
Just to let everyone know, I just checked their website and it is up for sale!

Is the Incipio one better in your opinion?
The incipio is thinner and i like cases that are less bulky, these have an awesome design but they look like there gonna add some bulk to the sensation I really wouldn't mind trying out both cause the trident one also cuaght my eye and it looks like it would protect the phone better than the incipio...so there's always pros and cons but in my opinion If I had to choose only one I would most probably go with the incipio...
Where the holster/stand?
Nice find!! But cant purchase yet when you go to purchase its shows N/A for price.. Well for me anyway!! Will keep checking back tho

They did say on their facebook page that Only the Red and the Green is available now.
I didn't buy it yet. Did anyone purchase it and can throw up some photos/review?
Ordered mine in blue. Must be working now since I got the email saying my order was being processed. 29.95. Was going to wait for otterbox but their taking entirely too long.

Ahhh...And I just got the Seidio surface case and clip...Drat! I wonder of this Trident would fit my clip? Id guess not. I wonder if there will be a Trident clip to match? I really have to have a clip.

i will for sure. ill post some pics too
I bought the case too!
I have already received my Trident Aegis case for the Sensation. It is definitely thinner than I had originally thought. It has a cover for the micro-usb port and the head phone jack. The rubber definitely protects the four corners of the phone. My phone fits perfectly inside of it, and I haven't noticed any stretching with the silicone case. My only real complaint is where the usb port is covered the silicone is really thin and could potentially rip. Other than that it is a wonderful case and well worth the purchase.
Cheers!
I ordered black one from eBay for 24.99.

Any know if there is a holster that fits this case?
I ordered one as well. I also have the Seidio Active case and holster and I'm hoping the Trident will fit in my Seidio Holster. I'll let you know when it arrives.

This looks really nice, but I'll wait for your pics.
If its too fat, I'll wait for Incipio's two-piece, hybrid, silicone inner/hard shell outer, "Silicrylic" case.
heres a video review of the case

As a previous Trident Case user (I had the Cyclops case for the Samsung Vibrant), I'm anxiously awaiting the delivery of my Sensation case!
I also have my case on order.
Whats up world of XDA, I need your help choosing between these four cases. I usually buy them cheapy ones but this time I decided to buy a good one. I'm not sure whether to go with the Seidio Active, the Trident Aegis, the Case-Mate Tough Case, or the Case-Mate Pop! Case. Or should I wait for a better one to come out, (if there is another one coming out). Is there other better ones? Thanks!
Hmmm.... Based on the examples you listed, it seems like you're looking for a tank-like case. Considering how 'new' the Sensation is, you could always wait for more tanky cases to come out. If you don't mind getting something a little less tank-like, take a look at Incipio NGP case. I bought mine for 19.99 with free shipping from the official Incipio site. Also, you might want to look at the NGP incipio case thread under Sensation Accessories. Good luck finding the perfect case.

Yeah, I saw the NGP Incipio case. It looks durable but I need something more as you said "tank like". I got it a month ago and its in perfect condition however I tend to drop my phone a lot. I used to have the Samsung Vibrant and I literally destroyed the chrome sides. I'd rather buy the case than buying a OEM battery cover. So you think I should wait for better ones?
Bump.

Unless you're willing to wait for other xda peeps to post up their experience with any of the cases you listed, you might be better off ordering all of them & personally test each one until you find one that suits 'your needs'. I dunno if you'd be up for such a hassle. Besides, what would you define as "better" in comparison to you're current list?
The Body Glove case with optional kickstand got bad reviews in the beginning because it was the wrong fit(left marks on phone). They've restocked now and it fits much better(they sent me a replacement). Its not too big of a case and not too small. Has good grip.
My 2 cents.
