There's been a lot of posts about cases lately and I'm obsessive over having the best suited case for my phones. As of last night I now have all the big name cases. The OEM "hard shell" case made by HTC, the hard rubberized one sold by T-Mobile, as well as the Otterbox. I'm working on a full review with pics in between my studying and classes so I'll try to have it up by late tonight or tomorrow at the latest.
I have to say I'm not FULLY satisfied with any of them, as they each definitely have flaws, but at least people will be able to see which one best suits their needs.

Sweet man! I've got the otterbox and the tmo hard rubber case, and i actually use the otterbox for the back and the rubber for the front. I love it. I'm interested to see what you do.

Just ordered the Otterbox since the HTC OEM snap on case isn't available anywhere!

If you have a rubberized one, it'll fit great.
And btw, what does OEM stand for? Haha

OEM is original equipment manufacturer, just means its an actual HTC product. Yea, right now I'm using the HTC front but I don't like how the camera button isn't covered. The tmo rubber one is just too sticky in my pockets and blocks both the top of the keyboard and the left side of the screen when trying to drag across home screens.

OH YAY another thread about the same 3 cases everyone reviews
I have the otterbox commuter case, work's great, doesn't add to much weight to the phone.
Love the phone, have not one single time used the keypad. Are there any cases that snap on around it and stop it from opening? Odd, I know...

This isn't going to be too helpful, but just to get you by until someone comes in with a solid answer, I know I've seen at least one or two cases that encompass the entire phone.
yeah, get the aluminum PDAIR ones. it's metal and it locks the phone down.
has anyone tried the pdair case? How does it actually hold up to everyday use? To drops?
I wonder if the desire from uk is the same size as the desire z...

Just wanted to second the aluminum cases, seems like the only ones that have a locking mechanism on the side.
Saw this on ebay. Anyone try it?

I like that! Too bad I bet it won't fit ours. :-(
Just looked and they have them for the one xl though... That might fit!

I like this. Someone please confirm if the xl version will fit the AT&T models.
Thanks

That model seems like a bad idea. First, it seems strange to me that the front plate is held on by a really small and flimsy looking hook. That to me gives me the impression that it could fall off really easily.
Also, the sides being open around the screen mean pocket lint is going to collect in there and on a normally white phone it may look really bad.
Finally, he showed it off without any SIM card I noticed. I would like to see someone test the signal attenuation that is caused by the all metal case. It may not affect signal at all but I would want someone else to confirm that before plunking down ~$30.
Just wait a few months, they will be sold for $12-16.

I got one on Friday. It fits our device fine but it is a complete piece of garbage. Very cheap feeling, finish is crap and the front part that slides in is not secured well.

Thanks for the update. Too bad, I was hoping it would be good.

Thanks, sadly you confirmed my suspicions.
We will hold out hope for someone to produce an aluminum bumper worthy of the HOX.

Uhm we strongly need this.
I just emailed him requesting one for the one S. I'll report back with his response .

Thank you Elloco for contacting him and keeping us informed. I really do hope its a favourable reply as it just looks perfect for our gaming needs. I'll even pay the £10 for Final Fantasy on the market.
No problem. He's still yet to answer. We should all E-Mail him.
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using Tapatalk 2
Just mailed him myself too, the more that mail the better our chances.
Hey guys! Thanks for your support! I just saw this thread posted over on my Facebook so I thought I'd drop in and say hi. Hopefully I can get one made for the One S in the future!

Aahhhh good day to you fella and thanks for dropping in, was me that asked about the one x working for our one s
I remember you building your first during the good old G1 days, seen it grow from concept to what it has become today. Really looking forward to you hopefully bringing one out for the One S.

Hey guys, I got impatient waiting for a One S version so I went ahead and bought the One X thinking they were pretty much they same size. Fortunately, I was right and the One S fits the One X model of the gameklip perfectly (though I had to take off my cruzerlite case). I am really enjoying it and I figured you guys might want to see how it looks.
The clip is pretty sturdy and I have no trouble holding the controller. It feels like the weight is distributed very nicely to the controller so it doesn't feel like it's going to tilt backwards, which is something I was thinking would happen. The One S fits pretty snugly and doesn't wobble or anything. The only downside is that most games prefer to have you hold the landscape mode where the top of the phone is on the left hand side, but that blocks out the headphone jack. If you put it on the right hand side, the power button is blocked. Not big problems since you can use an app to force it to rotation whichever one you prefer. Access to the volume buttons and micro-usb port are unhindered, which is nice.
Whoops, forgot to include the pictures.
Nice!!! Sweet Job bro.
This is great news.
I wonder how the X fits in there if the S fits good. Haha

I originally thought because the One X is slightly taller and thicker that I might be able to use the One S with its case on. It's obvious to me now that I couldn't since the two are only millimeters differences. I can only imagine the One X being even more snug and secure. The sides where it holds the phone are covered in a felt-like material that makes sliding in and out pretty easy.

So playing with the klip you'd have to be extra careful how you tilt or lean because the device is capable of sliding out?

Nope, the klip is tight enough that there is enough friction to keep it secure. I just meant that it doesn't have that scratchy plastic on metal/plastic noise that I would expect if there wasn't any felt or whatever. I made a video to help demonstrate it but I can't link because apparently I haven't made 10 posts yet. Gotta stop lurking, I guess. :silly:
Here's a picture, I shook it vertically, back and forth, and rotated it. It didn't drop, but the entire klip did wobble when I rotated it which caused me to be scared for a second. Hope that helps.
You my friend are a bad ass
I'm definitely getting the Klip now thanks to you.

Nice one Hippocritical! I had asked about it working with our One S and was pretty much told flat out it wouldn't work. So glad you took the dive now I need to save some pennies. Appreciate the pics and updates.
I was kinda attracted to the flip cases available for the htc one x ..
after a small resear found some .. but the one which i liked the most is
http://www.ebay.com/itm/140805063347#ht_6169wt_1185
i was just wondering , if anyone tried it ? looks sexy.. but 18$ isn't worth untill i know it works fine..
I haven't tried it but is be scared to use one without a screen protector
A tiny piece of sand could get caught in there and eff up your screen
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
yeah true .. but i wont invest that much money in the case until and unless i have the confirmation that it works perfectly
i was just thinking that someone might have give it a go ..
27$ that's too much , with the fact that i dont know for how much time will i carry my ONE X .. hehehe..
actually i was looking for something like the SAMSUNG NOTE CASE ..
Thats a really good looking case, but I've been rolling naked for a while and i have the same concern about sand as superchilpil, don't want any more scratches
Anyone looking to sell their one x cases and car dock ??

I'm a little concerned that the camera hole won't fit perfectly, but I will certainly let you know when I receive it. If it works this might be the best flip case out there.

I ordered one, the brown one. So hopefully in a week or so I'll have it and I'll let you guys know how it fits and works.
Got this original HTC flip case from expansys.com and it's quite legit! Also downloaded smart screen off app, that way phone screen would automatically turn on and off when open/closed the flip. Worth the money!

I ordered the black one, we'll see what happens when it comes off the boat and to my door. Currently using the ballistic case for my HOX as my daily, I work in a garage and its been great! This would be a great out of work case.
