Looking For A Case For Your Skyrocket? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

I found this case on amazon.
(Since I'm a new user I'm not allowed to post outside links)
But you can find it under the name of "Diztronic Matte Back Black Flexible TPU Case for Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket". Its only $9.90 with free shipping. It has a soft smooth back side which adds a little grip the already slippery back. The only downside for me (might not be a problem for you) is that the volume rocker becomes a more sensitive again that might not be a problem for you.
As soon as I get a chance I will take pictures of the case on the phone as well as off the phone so you guys can see. And I'll update the link when i pass the post limit
Hope this helps!

The gloss black version of that case was one of the first Skyrocket cases ever sold. It's a good case. A few reviews are here on the forum. But post up your pics anways, can't ever have enough pics.

I probably should've checked to see if they already had reviews on it. But yeah hopefully tomorrow I can take the pictures. It looks pretty cool with the white SK.

I used that case til I got my Seidio surface combo. I really liked it. Easy on, easy off, matte finish made it slip in and out of pocket easily. It even fit in my Seidio holster.
The only thing I didnt like about it was the gloss lip around the front, while it looked good, it grabbed pocket lint and made it build up on the screen around the edges.
Good case though. And for less than $10 cant complain much.
Here's a link to the one I bought off eBay.

Yeah that's probably the only other problem I have. But it doesnt really bother me much. A quick wipe with my shirt or something and its gone

I have the seidio it is OK. But I also have this one http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=280790587387&index=7&nav=WATCHING&nid=48204636389 the ringke slim white case. It is pretty much so light of a case still protects the edges and everything unlike the barely there cases. This is the slimmest case ever makes your phone the a looker.

Also have the ringke slim white case. Definitely a great looker. Only problem I've had is the usb plug on the bottom breaking off.

That's a good looking case.
I hate the caps though. I'd want to rip them all off.
Does it look flakey or "broken" with the cap removed? Like it's obvious that something used to be there and is now missing?
Or does it look okay?
Any chance you could post a macro picture of where the cap broke off?

Didn't had the issue with breaking that part of.

Wow. That's a nice looking case. Might order it with my financial aid check.

Yeah I love this case.. It gives me a awesome looking white touch to it, without the whole phone being all white. Personally think it is ugly when the front is white too. I like the back white. The black and white makes it look very nice. People always asked, but what is that for a phone? Is the Skyrocket *****es lol

Hey guys, just got this phone today, well yesterday now I guess. Anyways, I was looking at this Ringke case and I was wondering if in fact it does have the weird cut out on the top corner? I keep seeing it in the product pictures and I cant figure out why it's there.

First two pics are the top headphone cap on and off, last pic is bottom of the phone with the usb cap broken off.

The cut out is because the Japanese version has a antenna for watching TV and it is right on that corner. Look it online and it also has that ugly hardware button in the front instead all touch buttons.

Thanks for the pics.
Looks just fine with the cap ripped off.
I like that the buttons for volume & power are open.
The only thing I don't like about the TPU case is that it has a cover over the volume buttons.
The nice thing about that is the power button is open, so it's easy to know what end is up when you're grabbing the phone while it's in your pocket.

Close but not quite right.
It's because of the Korean version's DMB (digital multimedia broadcasting - i.e. mobile TV) antenna.
By the way, many prefer the physical center button over the capacitive variant offered in the US.

Thanks I was close. Thanks you for clearing this exactly up. I appreciate it.

Couple questions for Sprint Nexus S owners

I am about to replace my Evo:
Is there away turn off the notification bar in the browser?
Has battery life been good?
GPS working as it should? (unlike the Epic)
Does it scratch easily?
How is call quality?
Thanks!
I haven't seen a way to turn off the notification bar while in the browser. Perhaps rooted with a custom rom when one is created.
Battery life is okay. Not amazing, but not as bad as the Evo.
GPS works great for me. YMMV.
No scratches yet. So not easily. I am very careful with my phones though.
Call quality is great for me. Sprint's call quality in this area is great.
Just a warning, I have very poor 3G speeds with mine. It will probably be going back tomorrow because of that.
I picked up the Sprint Nexus over the weekend. Also coming from the EVO.
Not sure this is a keeper yet. My EVO had the best ROM "Myns RS 5" was super smooth fast and was a Sense based ROM. Coming to vanilla stock Android after that was a shock and still hard to adjust to.
Only thing I like about Nexus over EVO is three things. Beautiful screen ...lightweight size fit in pocket easily ...battery life is better...
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA App
I picked up the Nexus S Sunday and coming from a HTC Hero (worst phone ever made), the Nexus S is the best thing ever since sliced bread!
Dont know about the notification bar...
Battery life has been pretty good. Lasts me a day/day and a half almost with regular use (emails, txts, phone calls, etc).
Have it in a case (Incipio), screen seems pretty durable so far...but I'm thinking of slapping on a protector just in case. That being said, the phone is extremely thin and light but a case is definitely suggested as the phone itself it slippery like a bar of soap.
Call quality is great.
I am looking forward to root this phone but reading a bunch of different sites on rooting has my head spinning.
About it being slippery:
anyone know if the back from the T-mobile Nexus fits? It seems to have some texture on it...

It's not a texture, it's still glossy, that's how the Sprint one looks as well.
*no idea on the notification bar
*battery life is better than evo, but still so-so depending on your use
*the gps isn't bad at all, considering all the complaints i've heard about it...in all my experiences so far its been accurate to 20 meters on average.
*put a skinomi on mine, so idk about the scratch
*calls are ok
overall i like the form factor. easier to hold than evo, not as heavy.
Mr Awesome, the Sprint one does not have the apparent dots on it (it looked like solid black to me), so I thought it may feel different...
It does have dots on the back.

the sprint one has dots on the back, but i guess it just depends on what angle youre looking at, it may not be so visable.
Are you using the Incipio Feather case ? Really like that case design but was food it would not fit the larger Sprint Nexus ?
You have any pics please ?

Yeah I uploaded some pics of the phone in the case. Incipio's feather cases are very lightweight and fits the phone like a glove. The material is very smooth on the inside and gives the phone a very nice matte finish. A lot easier to hold onto to prevent accidental slips. Don't worry about the size difference, it's only 0.3mm between the two models anyways. The case fits.
The only issue I find with the case is that its made for the GSM version of the Nexus S and I'm guessing the power button on the GSM version is a little lower compared to the CDMA? Look at the second pic to see what I'm talking about...the cutout is a little off. Very minor detail, the button is pretty much unaffected, just feels off centered. Kind of pissed me off in the beginning but I learned to accept it.
I emailed Incipio about this and they said they're not releasing a Nexus S 4G case anytime soon. But whatevers, this case works and Incipio makes great cases.

Thanks just placed my order. I bet Incipio will be shocked with a ton of new orders all of a sudden for this case this week
Anyone tried that full-body (two piece) protector that Sprint sells (screen protector and back piece)? If so, does it add any grip?
when will this phone be able to be rooted? i came from att htc inspire and kinda miss it but wana give this phone a try once rooted.

Yep picked it up on launch day with the phone. The clip is garbage, ive had it fall off my belt while bending down, moving fast, etc. The body protector is nice however. Has good grip too it and the phone still feels thin.
The only thing I'm really swing so far about EVO vs NS4G is coming from rommed evos, don't hold biased to that,as the ohknd just came out Sunday

TPU Case from Amazon Review

Picked up a TPU case from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0054HA45A
It's pretty much the bomb if you are looking for a TPU case. Cutouts for surround sound mic holes on back and all of the cutouts line up near perfect.
It fits the phone perfectly. I recommend. It's only 8 bucks and they have a few different colors. I got the gloss black. Free shipping if you are a prime member like me.
Sorry, there is dust all over my phone in these pics. It's not sparkly. The case is super rigid TPU. It's not the dust/lint attracting silicon BS you get at T Mobile. I was in a dusty environment when taking the pics.

As I stated in the cases thread, I also own this very nice case.
I also mentioned the downsides it has for me so far, which are the pretty hard to use volume rocker and hard to reach power button. Volume rocker might be due to the way I used to press it on my DHD, there seems to be a position when it actually works pretty easy. But the power button will always be a pain.
Yet, it's actually a failure of HTC, the power button on the side is the only thing I like about the SGS2 which I would LOVE to see on a future HTC phone.

I didn't see your post. I am having no issues with the volume rocker, but I really don't use it much I guess. I never listen to music on my phone.
I would love for this phone to have the power button on the side. All of these Android phone manufacturers should follow Samsung's lead and put them on the side. Everyone is putting them at the top these days! It's pretty awkward pushing a button on the top to lock it every time you put it down.
Loving this case!
wish these came in flat black or non opaque colors.

Its funny you all complain about the Volume on the top. I remember when the Galaxy first came out there was A LOT of complaints about the power button being on the side. I dont mind the where the power button is on my Galaxy or Sensation... Shrugs.
I do have a question tho. The 2 holes on either side of the camera and the 2 holes near the bottom, what are they for? The TPU case i bought from Amzer (SP?) dont have those holes free. I wonder if they will cause a problem.
Google told the holes are for the antenna connectors.. So it shouldn't be a problem when it's covered.

Hard shell is never my thing.. I don't like silicon cases because of the friction and lint accumulation. Just ordered it on Amazon, I will wait and see if I can live with the added thickness.
I've gone naked for the past few days, I've never used any cases with my blackberry or previous HTC phones. I've never tried TPU cases before, I guess it doesn't hurt to try for 8 bucks.

It adds almost no thickness to the phone. My brother asked me why I didn't have a case when he was playing with it today.
Someone gave this a one star review on Amazon because the volume rocker is harder to press. It's not that hard. Plus you could easily get an exacto knife and cut it out yourself. You will like this case dude.

Yeah, you won't regret it
You won't notice the extra thickness in width, maybe in height, but it doesn't really matter there.
I picked one up before getting the phone. Fits nicely, you can barely notice the thickness. I just wish they had clear one instead of the smoked one that I've got.
Hi!

Just got it and put it on this morning.
Gotta say I love the fit and finish. Everything fits perfectly without being too tight or lose. It definitely does a great job of preventing scratches or bumps. Now I could toss and slide the phone all I want without worrying scratching the back. The case also doesn't pick up too much pocket lint like silicon cases, while adding friction while holding the phone and minimize incidental drops.
Minor negative is that the power button and volume rocker is noticeably harder to control/press than before without using the case. The added thickness does not subtract from the user experience, but it does add ever so slightly to the bulk.
Then again, which case doesn't have those cons? For 8 bucks, it is a great case. I'll keep using it for now till I find myself using the volume rocker more frequently, which I do use quite often for music and in-call volume adjustments.
If only it wasn't so shiny
I purchased this case as well, it is absolutely fantastic. It fits so perfectly, and I can't believe the price. I was worried I wouldn't like the shine, and that it would be loose, but I've gotten used to it, and it fits tight to the phone. Definitely one of the best cases I have ever owned for any device.
I got mine off Amazon, from TPU Case. Very nice black, I can't complain. I always get TPU cases for my phones but I never got black. They sell the exact same ones on eBay for $8.95 except the shipping is free.
I used the camera on my camcorder, very bad quality but hopefully you can see the holes and what not.
Just got the all black one today, I must say it is a perfect fit, never had a case that fitted this well. No bulk at all, feels just as slim.
I purchased this on Amazon last week. Note it was $7.98 and now it's $8.90. Crazy the price went up, haha!
Here's my review:
I've never used a product before made out of "Durable Flexible TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane)" but it seems to do the job quite well. It's an extremely hard durable plastic with just a tiny bit of flex so you can get the case on the phone. (A word of warning: you won't be taking this case off too often because it's really difficult to do so! Once it's on, it's meant to stay!)
As for protecting the phone, it seems like it will do the job. It's sealed *extremely* tight, so hopefully it won't let dust/lint in there like those cheap rubber cases do.
It looks great too, since it's a shiny/glossy black color. That means it's also easy to slip in and out of a pocket, unlike the cheap rubber cases that will stick to the inside of your pocket.
The only bad thing I can see is that it gets kind of greasy easily, even if you wash your hands often. And over time, scratches might show easily as well. (I'll update the review if the case gets scratched or something in the future, but so far so good.)
Overall though, for the price (which was actually a tiny bit lower last week when I bought it) I am extremely satisfied with this case. I want maximum protection and Otterbox is currently refusing to put out a case for the Sensation (not to mention their cases are expensive too). So in the mean time, this TPU case seems to be handling the job quite well. Hopefully my phone remains in perfect condition for the next year so I can resell it easily.
I would highly recommend this case to other Sensation owners, especially for the price, and even more so if you are an Amazon Prime member for the free shipping. It is a pretty great product and I would certainly consider purchasing their cases for my future phone(s).

Otterbox Commuter Series Case for Motorola Photon Q
I've had this case of about a week now. It's definitely a very solid, well built case. I feel confident that my phone will be protected if I happen to drop it, and the case won't shatter in the process (I've had this happen before). My only real complaint is that the gripping surface on the outside of the case feels almost slippery. It's just plastic, no coating to provide a better grip surface, the back is nicely grooved though to provide some grip, and the rest of it does have some texture so it's definitely not a deal breaker.
The screen protector that comes with it is only so so. I'd recommend picking up a Skinomi or Phantom Skinz screen protector when they're finally released.
Overall I would definitely recommend this case, and I would buy it again if I had to.

Thank you for this, I've been eyeballing that case. Though, if the case lacks grip it won't work for me. Here's holding out for a kickstand case!

Thank you for this, I've been eyeballing that case. Though, if the case lacks grip it won't work for me. Here's holding out for a kickstand case!

Awesome! Let me know how it turns out, I might be able to forgive how ugly that thing is if there's a decent kickstand and some grip on the back.
At work we offer the otterbox for staff who get the iphone. Those of us with android have usually been left to fend for ourselves for accessories. The phone stays in my pocket when not in use and I'm not clumsy so I don't really think I need a case for it.
In regards to screen protectors, there were unconfirmed reports that the photon q has gorilla glass, has anyone found any validity to that?
My evo shift did have gorilla glass and it never scratched up on me.

Well I got it and not much to say except it has a kickstand It wasn't as ugly as the pic but its slicker than owl snot
Not sure what Body Glove was thinking. I could get the grip tape out and mod it a little...maybe make it kind of Ironman-ish LOL
But I might return it and stick to the OtterBox one, I have it as well and it's a good one.
So my 2 cents is; if you haven't bought one yet get the Otterbox for sure. Or you could wait, I am sure more styles are on the way.
Thanks for the review. Mine comes in later this afternoon.

IIRC it does have some sort of "nano coating" that makes it very hard to scratch. But my experience has been that no matter how hard it is to scratch I eventually will, so I always get a nice screen protector. I normally stick with Phantom Skinz, they've always done an excellent job of protecting my screen.
Just got the commuter in black and loving it so far! Feels good and has protection all over phone! Something other case I don't see do. For some reason I hate those cases for qwerty phones that has opening and not solid cover pieces for the whole phone

I got the case as well, and the only thing I don't like about it is the screen protector - it doesn't seem like it was designed to fit the screen, at all!?!
I guess I'll get another screen protector from another company. The case itself is good, my only other gripe would be it needs to be grippy on the back - the hard plastic just causes the phone to slide everywhere!!

Yes the screen protector sucks. I use it now til I find a better replacement but I notice otterbox is doing that now with screen protector in the commuter series. I guess to push people into the defender? But since we know they probably not going to make a defender model for the q the screen protector should be better!!! Girl I work with has the white one and i may trade for the white. But hers is already dirty and after awhile its gonna look like crap. Also seems like the white one uses a different kind of finish. Seems thick with case on but next to a epic is was about the same size

I already used the otterbox but when I would like to "release" it from my photon q, its really hard to dismantle the case on the lower part (keyboard part), cause there is no "grip" for our finger..any suggestion?

I like the commuter series Otter Box on my Q but the case around the screen isn't perfectly snug. It has a small amount of play in it anyone else had this problem? or should i probably trade it in for a new one

+1. Not a big fan of the play either, because it does rub on that shiny edge... But oh well. I doubt a new case would solve it.
I used to have a piece of paper folded in my old phone and case so it wouldnt budge.
anyone know if this case is compatible with the vehicle dock? (the otterbox for the Photon 4G blocked the data connector to the vehicle dock.)

No sadly it is not compatible unless you cut off the rubber flap that blocks the ports... if manage to do that then it is still a pain to fit in the dock even with the adapter plate removed... i take it out of the case when it is docked

i-Blason TPU Case

I was perusing the Rearth Case thread and from there came across the i-Blason TPU case. Like the Rearth, it's $10USD well in US, not sure if it's available internationally yet.
I have it on and sporting it right now. I do like it. It gives the phone better grip IMO. The only negative is that it's not clear. I mean you can still see the nexus name but not the sparklies lol. I have also posted a pic of a holster that I had back when the HTC Sensation first came out and I needed some sort of holster before Seidio came out with one. Don't mind the cords lol...

If someone could comment on a good glossy tpu case (maybe this one is), I find those have much better grip than matte.

I don't have a N4 but waiting for one eventually and wanted to see what cases there are. Currently I have a Sensation with an i-Blason case and love it as well. Anyone want to try it out? I personally want a clear/frost one. Other colors are black and pink.

I respectfully disagree with your opinion. For my Sensation, I have both the cheap ebay ones that can be bought for around 2-4 dollars and I currently have the i-Blason. Yes they are similar, but the main difference for me when I got these for my Sensation was that the openings and buttons did not align 100%. With the i-Blason, on the Sensation anyway did. So that is why I was inquiring if anyone has tried these out yet.
But you may be right, you never know with new products, but I want to see the proof in the pudding.
I don't know about their quality yet, but I pre-ordered with them because they claimed to be shipping on the 13th. So I figured I'd pick it up just because it was the first case I saw available.
Well turns out it didn't ship until the 21st and that was the last day of their expected timeframe that it would be delivered. They did not expedite the shipping and would not get back to me about requesting a refund on the shipping.
At this point, even if it's a nice case I'm sending it back. I don't like doing business with companies that fail to communicate (and yes, at least with Google I had someone to call regardless of them knowing something, they still answered. They also honored Free shipping for failing to meet shipping timeframe).
Other than that, I ordered the black one and I'll update with the quality of it and pics with it on the device.

I also ordered this case in Frost Clear.
I was a little disheartened to look at the product photos today and see the true representation of the case on the phone.
When I ordered the case on the 19th, the images they showed on Amazon were obviously Photoshopped, but I had hoped they were a decent representation of the case, just not having an actual model phone to place them on for product photos.
The Frost Clear product on the 19th looked like this in their image : imgur.com/PrIEy.jpg
Now, looking at the new image they have, the thing is near white. : imgur.com/PrIEy.jpg
I should have mine in an hour or two, and can take photos and post if anyone is interested. I'll wait to get it in my hands to determine if I'm satisfied. I was looking for something a bit more subdued and dark, yet clear enough to see the rear design of the phone a bit. This new white frosted version is much the opposite of that.

Hmmm, for my sisters s3 she had also ordered 2 cases. One from I-Blason for 15$ and the same on from hong kong for 2.50$ and in the end I think even the Hong Kong was better but your opinion is your own and I will not change it Its just im in high school and I make sure to get the best deals because I cant just go buy the most expensive ones.
Received mine - Photos
Just got mine in the mail. Again, it's definitely not what I was expecting with the original product shots they used on the amazon page.
Here's the gallery : imgur.com/a/QcCKr
I got this as a stop-gap until the bumper or a nicer case was available, so I'm not cringing so much for the time being, but it definitely looks cheap and looks like a toy with this on.
I was hoping for a more tinted plastic with a dark tinted plastic for the back, as the original images would have you believe.
I can say, for the most part, the new photos are very representative of the final product.
Aside from the looks, it feels pretty secure. the case has a bit of give on the left and right sides of the phone, making it feel squishy. The back part that is frosted isn't very grippy, it's more of a paper-like feel, like they just sanded down the clear material. there's no logos to be seen on the case at all, which i'm actually quite happy about. I figured the i-blason logo was going to be on the back, as some of the images had shown. The clear portions aren't super grippy, but there's a bit more than the bare Nexus 4 had. The buttons are harder to press than they are bare.Kinda hard to get used to the pressure needed. It's not a ton, but more than I'm used to.
There's a notch at the top of the front, for the receiver, which was a nice touch, to keep it fully open. The ridge around the front of the phone covers the chrome completely and comes in on the curved glass almost all the way. the height from screen-plane to top of the ridge is probably no more than 1mm, if that. It's the same thickness as a credit card, if that gives anyone a good indicator.
Overall, I'm alright with the purchase. I wasn't expecting a top quality case, just something to make me feel a bit more secure with it until the right case arrives. I didn't like the common s-curve case, so I got this one. sorta wished I had gotten the dark grey s-curve instead, to have the darker look I wanted.
Hope this helps anyone else out there.

Just got mine, I ordered the black, but amazon sent me the Frost Clear along with the Black, so I got 2 cases for the price of one lol....I can tell you the black looks nice, much nicer then the clear I think, I had a clear one on my S3 and no matter what clear TPU starts to turn yellow over time. Will post some pics in a few of the black. The case looks alot like Diztronic it has a matte black finish on the back and gloss bezel, it covers the curved edge of the glass, which for me is a nice touch since most screen protectors that arent wet apply won't be covering that part of the phone...one thing is the bottom and top edge, since the bezel is covered up my screen protector i had to cut since it was pushing it up other than that great buy for 10 bucks..also the cutouts are perfectly aligned....no complaints fits securely in the case much like a Diztronic case.
And a few more pics
Well I got my covers and id post pictures but they'd just be redundant. Not much to see

Any way to polish up the back to make it more grippy? Seems silly to have a case be just as slippery as the phone

Really havent tried the clear one but the black one is grippy enough where its not super slippery like the phone itself. the back feels the same as the matte finishes on my diztronic cases.
Just received my frost clear one in the mail. Honestly wasn't expecting too much out of it, so I'm pretty content with the product. Sorry I don't have another camera on me to take pictures of it with it on the phone, but the updated pictures on their Amazon page comes pretty close. It is clear around with the back having that "frost" look, so you can see the Nexus and LG logo pretty clearly. I would've liked it if the whole case all around was that translucent frost, but IMO it's not too bad. I also wish the cut outs were more precise, especially for the rear speaker. It's just this big cut out as if they just guesstimated it... this is one thing that looks better and more precisely done in the Amazon photos than IRL. But overall it's alright. Only using it so I don't have to be concerned with damaging my phone until I get a nicer case when they start coming out.

Very good quality - leather - very good price...
I'm using the original HTC case for this phone. I got it from eBay, for about 15 Euro. It fits the phone perfectly, as expected. It's scratch-resistant and it looks just dandy. My only grief with it is that the upper front "lip" (the case has sort of a lip close to the power button and headphones jack, maybe to grip the phone a little better) had to be filed off a little, because every time i would slide the phone into the case, the lip would lift my screen protector (it was an easy 10 minute fix).
Had case but not using it anymore. It made Gsm and WiFi signal weak. Now, without case all OK.

Sorry to reawaken a dead thread, but are you still using this case? Does the white back cover show through around the camera, or does the silicon part cover right up to the black camera cover? Considering either your one or a similar one by the same manufacturer (can't post links apparently, but the eBay item ID is 190846814472).

No problem at all. Hopefully I can help ya out.
I've moved on to the S3 so I no longer have any of these cases. The white, back cover of the SV does show through a little but not much.
Check this link out. It has the case available in 8 color combos. I ended up buying the black rubber w/ red plastic and the one with yellow rubber w/ black plastic. What's so cool about buying a couple is it allows you to mix up the cases and get more options. I had 2 cases and ended up with 4 combos. lol :good:
http://www.amazon.com/Eagle-Cell-PH...ickstand/dp/B00B7ZEPDA/ref=sr_1_5/?s=wireless
This case is by far one of the absolute best fitting cases I have ever had and it is very well made. The kickstand comes in very handy too.. This is saying a lot because out of all the phones I've owned, I've probably bought 30 cases. For the price, you can't beat it!!
The white showing through the camera opening is minimal. I shared this case with many of my buddies over in the Android Forums, Boost HTC One SV section and many of them ended up buying it. Every single one of them loved it and not a one said anything about the camera opening. :good:

Thanks for that! Went for red plastic on black silicone. Should get it tomorrow! I might try out the "shellster" case Amster do, seeing as it protects the screen, but it seems bulky...

Aye, this is pretty neat. There's maybe about a 3mm gap around the camera where the white shows, but it actually looks surprisingly nice with the white highlights. The kickstand is extremely tight (had to pop it out with a wee metal ruler) but I'd rather that than have it falling out all the time when I'm not using it!
Sent from my HTC One SV using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
It fits like a glove too doesn't it? For the money, it's a very nice case. You can get 1 more case and end up with 4 different color combos. As I mentioned earlier, I bought the red plastic w/ blsck rubber and the black plastic w/ yellow rubber. I used the black on black combo quit a bit. I liked the yellow rubber w/ red plastic too. It was something different that stood out. Easy to spot too! LOL!!!!
I'm glad you like it. My kickstands fit tight too as you mentioned. I'm like you. I would rather have them fit tight than have them flopping open all the time.
I recommend going with Tech Armor screen protectors also. The company has an installation video that if followed correctly, will eliminate bubbles. They have a lifetime warranty too. I went with the HD clear protectors and they look great inside. They're a little difficult to see in the California sunshine though. I talked w/ a buddy of mine who bought the Tech Armor matte protectors. I just sent him one of mine today and he is sending me one of his. I know the matte will not look as good as far as screen clarity but it will probably help cut down on the glare when outside. Seeing as I'm outside a good bit, if the matte is easier to see I'll probably end up ordering a 3 pack of them.
Tech Armor makes a great product and they are well worth the $6 or $7 price tag for a 3 pack. :good:
