[REVIEW] Otterbox Defender (ATT/Rogers) - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Fits like a glove as it is meant for the ATT/Rogers version. All holes line up. The rubber is tougher and less shiny than the normal rubber otterbox uses (which i thought thank god) The only thing i dont like/not used to yet is how the phone mounts into the belt clip. You have to slowly "wedge it out" Here are some pictures. Any questions? The temperature after playing a game for 25 min is 43c (without case it was around 39c)

Whats your opinion on the power button? Is difficult to press?

Very easy. I notice i dont have to push as hard as my ebay rubber case i had before. Volume buttons are also easily pushed. The screen protector takes a bit away from the clarity. Still debating on popping it off or not.

i have the COMMUTER and its an AWESOME case...they just released it today Monday June 4th Wouldnt use any other one...

I recommend just popping it out, especially if you already use a screen protector. It comes out rather easy and the adhesive strip can be pulled out in practically one piece. The only thing I would suggest is to use something like a small piece of duct tape to remove the left over residual adhesive from inside the frame.

Does anyone have the purple and teal otterbox? I really want one!

They have not been released anywhere yet. ATT nor Otterbox carry them yet. I was told within the next few weeks.

It depends on your area, because most ATT store here in Hawaii had both Commuter and Defender Cases, I originally went with the commuter case but felt it added too much thickness and took away the design of the phone, so bought Htcs slim case. The have improved a lot in terms of rubber material and fit, especially coming from the evo 3d case.

im interested in the commuter....may pick one up. but im usong the ballistic sg right now and i have no complaints at all...best feature is somehow this ballistic case makes my power button feel perfect :-D i hate how it feels without a case!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

I'm using the Defender too. Love everything about it except the screen protector. It makes the screen look glittery, for lack of a better word.

I use this very similar to otterbox and has a kickstand.

I just got a one x and a defender case. Great combo! I love how the rubber isn't so tacky. It's easy to get in and out of my pockets.

I agree. Its more stiff and more textured it seems. Lint doesnt want to stick to it Did you get the grey/black or black/black?

I got black/black and paid $45. I know, I got screwed lol

I picked up the Commuter from this site. It was legit.

I don't work for them, found them on another forum.
Shipping takes a while if you pick the cheapest option.
Just checked and shipping is free on some of the otterbox cases....
I paid $1.99 shipping and it took 5 Business days from BC to Ontario

Better case for the sk4g

Currently using the bodyglove case that t-mo sells. I really don't like it. Anybody know of anyone else selling a good case for our phone?
Yeah, I haven't found a good one either. Maybe online...
Sent from my Sidekick 4G using XDA app
hard to find a good one...
I haven't found one either, ordered one online but it makes the phone look chunky and it hits the keys when I open/close the screen part (it was cheap)
I suggest using the "skinz" stuff people sell for phones. It's made out of 3m control tac which is actually really durable. I work with the stuff so I put some on my battery cover and it works great, not too slippery and protects from scratches, I've seen a few people selling on amazon for the sk4g that's how I got the idea.
If you want to protect your phone without using a bulky cover or one that doesn't fit your phone quite right than I highly recommend Phantom Skinz.
I have had one on my T-Mobile G2 for 6 months, fitted it myself and haven't had any issues with it and it looks great. I'm currently looking at getting my partner a T-Mobile Sidekick 4G from the US as shes had it with her Samsung Galaxy S and will more than likely buy her a Phantom Skin at the same time.
http://phantomskinz.com/samsungsidekick4gchromatics.aspx
Also I'm fairly sure it comes with a couple of free really nice screen protectors.
Im waiting for otterbox to come up with a solution. I wasnt pleased with the answer when I asked the invisible shield kiosk if they carried a screen for the SK4 either.. they said they dont have it yet and they cant just 'cut a bigger one down' because it voids the warranty.. I may still cut one down from the spare one I had from my galaxyS
I WANT A ****ING GUCCI CASE!
OR AT LEAST LOUIS VIUITTON!
but I guess I'll settle for YSL. IF IT EVER ****ING COMES OUT!
I'm cutting one too
Is the body glove with the stand any good?
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App
I don't use a case for mine.. it's already bulky as it is. I do recommend using a screen protector - the one t-mobile sells works perfectly fine, except that at the top where the LEDs are there is an unremovable bubble. It was 15 dollars for two protectors - a little expensive but compared to how much the phone costs it's well worth it. I guess you can buy some online but I didn't want to wait
i got two hard shell cases on ebay, one for my wife and one for myself. we both have the sk4g. i paid 3.95 for one and 4.95 for the other. cant remember which cost what, but mine is black and my wifes has designs, that could have something to do with the price difference. they do scrape the keys when opening/closing the screen, but for what i paid, not complaining. phone still fits in my pouch with the shell, so it works for me. i dont have a link, but the seller was ZyDistro. fast shipping, too. ordered on wednesday, shipped thursday, got here saturday from california.
I just bought 2 cases this weekend via Amazon. Several styles are only $1!!! I got Body Glove for me and Pink rubberized case for my wife.
Sorry to revive something that hasn't been poked in a while but I have an SK4G I bought from my sister and her friend and the hardcase they gave me with it is very smooth and has hearts and butterflies on it (Not saying it's not cool looking but it makes me look a little immasculine. I never go around without my phone in a case due to a few other phones being just fine until that one drop just completely screws it up. I would like a new case that feels nice, protects the phone and looks good, I tried looking for an otterbox but the one I saw was just a box to put your phone in, not very accessible or keyboard friendly at all. So what can I do for this?
Just keep rockin the butterflys yo lol i been using the same black rubber gel type case tbey had at the tmo store when i bought this junk phone.its ok, got a lil loose after a year. just ordered what appears to be the same type off amazon but in blue and white. Thinking about that plastic case work the part that goes over the screen and just using that part with the gel case.but I'm with the comment above, anyone use that bodyglove with the kick stand? I got something similar for one of my s2 kick is nice but the case sucks.no protection and actually has killed the edges of my s2.and its fugly to boot
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Check out ebay, they have a bunch in different styles and colors. I bought a few different kinds before I found one I liked. They are as cheap and a few dollars.
the case that covers the backside and around the phone is impossible to remove without this tool XP, so instead of using this piece, I see the belt clip case, but keep the one on the screen

I had this same exact case for my G2x, It wasn't as nice and didnt fit as well as it looked on the web. I really miss the fusion case I had for my MT4G that one was my favorite case. It was very similar yet much better. I wouldnt buy this case again for my sensation after seeing the exact one on my g2x This was the best one for the MT4G: http://www.ambitronic.com/product_info.php/mytouch-fusion-case-p-480
This was the same one as the sensation that I thought was pretty bad on the G2X (and I had two of these cases from different venders)

I've had my TPU case for a few days now, and I've found that it obstruct a micro-USB cable so it does not solidily stay plugged in. Do you have this issue as well or did I just get a bad vendor? (I have this one - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0054HA45A )

Case & Screen Protectors
I just got the this case for $5.95:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004XYHW1Y
They also sent two screen protectors for free. The case is very thin and it lets you see the phone's back, which is great. This might not be the case for someone looking to FULLY protect the phone, as it doesn't cover the top and bottom of it.
Now it is only $1.99 plus S&H, it doesn't gets better than that. Although not related to cases, you should buy this car charger:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000S5Q9CA
I got it for my N1 and it works great with the S4G.
try this one,nice awesome
nillkin case also nice and good

bought that kind, dont have it yet. did have on on my mt4g, worked beautifully. Fav case ever. usb port was a little tight on generic usb cords, but the htc cables have small heads that fit fine.
In my searches for a good TPU case, I came across this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180699200569&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_738wt_1037. It's cheaper than the TPU-Cases brand and it also comes with a screen protector. I think it looks great with a matte/gloss dual finish, but I'm not sure if I should buy it with the lack of a power button cutout.

I REALLY like the way that one looks, and with free expedited shipping, its worth trying. It't be sweet if it were orange though.
I just ordered 1 of this hard rubber and 3 of this tpu cases.
I believe they have a very good price and high quality.
I bought this case last week and it is the best tpu case I have ever seen or used! Looks so sexy on the sensation. It has all the extra holes on the back as well and it fits like a glove. The seller is also selling one for $2 more with a screen protector. Can't say how the sp is as I haven't tried it, but I highly suggest this case.

If you buy the matte black or white versions that show on Case Mates website, you'll be fine. After going through 5+ cases, I love the matte black barely-there case. It's also the best performing case when it comes to signal strength.
Beware of the mirrored silver versions, which block the GPS signal.
+1 for the matte black barely there. I've got this case and it's great. Offers no protection whatsoever for the front of the screen, but as long as your careful, it shouldn't be an issue.

Yeah i really only need protection for the back. I have the invisasheild and it works. I dropped my inspire on solid concrete from about 5 feet high and hit perfectly on the screen,I mean flat. And not even a knick. This was with no case too. So as long as the back is protected I'll be fine
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App
+1 for the barely there. Been using it about three weeks now. Love it.. No issues with signal or gps. Great case all around for what it is and what you need it to do.
I have the barley there case also. ONLY downside is that it makes the phone a bit slippery to hold. It adds almost no larger profile to the phone though, and weighs nothing
Have one also (white one, my chic has the pink one) had it on my phone for a few months now and its great. No issues with anything at all. Well worth the money if your looking to get one.
Just got my Barely There casemate (pink) and I love it !! I'm a big fan of CaseMate though.. also had one for my BB.
been looking for a new case ... my otterbox is too damn slippery.
thanks for the mini-reviews.

If you like the strength of the Otterbox you should look at the Casemate Pop case for the Inspire. It's a bit bulkier than the Barely There cases but it has grip on the sides so it's not slippery. It's probably not quite as durable as on Otterbox but it's a pretty good case. I've liked mine a lot so far.
Bought the pink barley there case and I love it! its not too bulky either. Its perfect.
I think i'm finally gonna pull the trigger on one of these, I'd rather be able to go to like Best Buy to check it out 1st hand...
I have the Speck case now and it's large profile rubs me the wrong way sometimes...
I'm thinking of getting this case for my Inspire, and I can't tell from the pictures how accessible the volume rocker and the power/lock button are. Anyone who owns the case can you comment on the ease of use of the physical buttons on this phone with this case on?
I got my case from ATT when I got my phone. It's the speck hard case
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Ok, I finally got one!
I was heading home and stopped at a local mall that I haven't been to in years.
I love it, its so slim and sleek and almost feels like it is not there.
I know it doesn't offer much protection but its great.
It also came with 1 screen protector which I thought was weird...unless the jackass forgot to put it back in..
Also I grabbed the last one they had, in matte black.

Mines came with 1.
I do recall that the incipio feather (very similar to barely there by casemate) cases come with 2x sp.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App
Mine came with one, but I choose not to use the protectors. The Gorilla glass is tough enough for my personal use style. 6mths and still not a single scratch. (I bet I just jinxed it damnit..)
I have this case as well and I like it. I have a bigger, bulkier case that I can switch to if I think there is a better chance of my phone being dropped or bumped around. There is a very small difference in reception but not much.
Great case for everyday use. Doesn't stick inside my pocket and it's lightweight and thin.

Best HTC One s case for me?

I am looking for a case that protects the top and bottom (To stop chipping). The case also has to look good with the black HTC One s and not scratch the phone like some TPU cases do. I like the CaseMate soft case but sadly it has no mic hole Hope someone can help!
The only cases that protect the bottom and top afaik are the silicone/rubber/gel type of cases.
Regarding the no hole for the microphone for the case mate soft and tough, it really isn't that much of an issue IMO and can be easily solved anyway using either a drill bit, eye letter punch or some other form of a cutting tool
See my review of the tough case here:
http://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1072819-case-mate-tough/
Below are the results of using a drill bit to make a tiny hole (acting as a "mark") and the eye letter punch to make a "proper" microphone hole

It would be difficult to obtain a D3O case outside of US/Canada. ^
I am waiting on this one to come in (ordered 5-5-12) After a recent unfortunate incident involving my Nexus S and a marble countertop + a 6" fall I am taking no chances. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007U6EHXS/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
I don't normally do anything except a screen protector but after watching my screen crack down the middle on my nexus s just a week ago I am not taking any chances with this beast of a phone. Just in casethe link doesn't work it is a ballistic case for HTC One S for about $17 from amazon.
You guys gotta wait for the otterbox case. Is not out yet but will be our soon
Sent from my One S.
I actually prefer the ballistic cases over the otterbox. Personally I don't like the complete coverage of the screen in the otterbox defender series and the commuter cases are almost exactly like the ballistic I ordered but the ballistic are generally cheaper and side by side they are just about the same save for some styling differences.

I am on my 3rd case since I got my phone a month ago.
The current one is by Diztronic (see the separate thread).
It is a TPU case so the top and bottom are protected, but it has a nice matt finish rather than the shiny effect of most gel cases. Would recommend!
edit: nvm...
Diztronic Matte
I'm thinking to buy the Diztronic Matte but it sais it's for the T-mobile version of the ONE S.
Do you think it will fit the GSM version as well?
It looks so cool.

Otterbox ordered through Verizon is good.

It doesn't even look or feel like a case is on to be honest. I used to always take by bionic case off at home because it was to bulky not this one it's just perfect and at 10 bucks it's a steal.

I also ordered the Otterbox through Verizon. Got it a couple days ago. Surprisingly it did not add much bulk to the phone. Only complaint, I'd like the back to be less smooth and a little more textured. Other than that its a great case.

Otterbox would be for if you want more protection on the phone.
If you want to go minimal, get the Diztronic TPU case like bigv5150 mentioned.
The Otterbox Defender will give you an integrated screen protector. I'm just using the overpriced ones from Verizon, which I'm not a huge fan of, but I did also order some cheapy "Supershields" screen protectors from Amazon. I haven't used one yet, but I am not expecting much from $2 protectors. They come in a 6-pack, however, so even if they are crap, at least I can switch it out whenever one of them gets scratched up.

Did yours come with a screen protector in it? I just got mine in the mail from the verizon site and mine did not come with one even thought it mentioned that it did. Others seem to be reporting that theirs was missing as well.
No screen protector in it... Oddly enough its a different color than what's advertised on otterboxes website. Must be a Verizon exclusive

I really liked the Diztronic case for my Bionic, but I think the new bumper is the way to go with the Maxx. It apparently isn't available for the Ultra or Mini, at least for now.
Shown in red below to make it more visible, but mine is dark gray. I like the way the carbon/Kevlar back shows through.

The new defenders are a lot better than what my galaxy nexus had. The reinforcement on the belt clip is different, less fragile in appearance. Same for the snaps around the case. Easy to remove too. And the rubber doesn't pull off either without opening a port! Needs colors though.
A google search revealed Trident cases specifically for maxx. Not listed on company website but available for purchase from online retailer.
