Hi. I'm searching for something like the C740 but for the One X. I know about the Rock Quicksand, but sadly, this isn't available in Austria.
Any ideas? thanks much

Fitment is not 100% but it's a very nice case.

Nice, I like the Barely There Case very much, although the camera protection could be improved. Thanks kontra!
Btw. I don't get why HTC won't produce a case like the C740 for the One X? Those buyers are probably their best customers.

No problem. I have the Spigen case so I can't say much about the Case Mate one. The opening for the camera on the Spigen sticks out a bit more so it offers some protection to the lens.
There's a trade off between the two. The case mate fits better but you lose out on lens protection. There's a small gap on the top left and right when I have the Spigen on the phone and the cutout for the flash is misaligned but the case feels really good in your hands and the flash doesn't seem to be affected.
Another option is this which is similar to the case mate.

On a side note: Having to wait 2 minutes before I can edit my post is really lame...
Here's a thread on the case-mate. There are pictures too of my own HOX sporting a Barely-There (let me know if the pics are broken...I'm at work and I can't see them).

I've been using this for about a week now and am quite happy with it. I used Nillkin minimal cases on my last 2 phones and this one seems to offer A LITTLE bit more coverage. More than the Case-Mate as well. The edges don.t raise higher than the screen though so a screen protector is a must (one comes with it). Ill share pics if youd like.

Thanks stnguyen, looks like you got the case mate for a while now, are you happy so far?
Also, this might be a though question to answer, but do you folks by any chance know of a leader case that might fit the HOX while wearing one of these hardshells?
Think I'm gonna get the Incipio Feather since it gives the best edge protection and it also seems to be made of the same (kinda) material as the C740, which has a really nice feel to it.
Btw, some additional options I found (sorry, not allowed to post links):
* Krusell ColorCover (not enough edge protection)
* Twins Shield Mesh (not enough edge protection and I don't know about the material)
Imo the best slim hard case is the Amzer shellster. I have that and the barely there. They are almost exactly the same except the shellster covers the camera very nicely. Lemme know if you want pics

Stay away from the Incipio Feather. Here is what they claim the cutout for the USB port looks like:

This is NOT what the actual case look slike. There is a little strip of plastic running at the top of the USB port cutout which prevents the USB cable from securely plugging into the port.
This is a real PITA and a shame, I am sending the case back to Incipio. I can't understand why the actual design does not match what they sent me, I just ordered a week ago. Perhaps they are selling off old stock, buyer beware!
None of my plugs have a problem snapping into place.
Does anybody know if the spigen case in white matches the white on the HOX? Reason I ask is because I have the white speck case, and it doesn't match at all so I never use it. It's just one of those things that bother me...

Matches very well.
You kinda sound like me. While the color of the Spigen case looks close to the white on the HOX, the fitment isn't great. It bugs me and I know it'll bug you. Lol.

I was bored enough so here is a simple review of the Diztronic TPU case for the One X.
First impressions of it, it looks like most standard TPU cases. the one thing that really caught my eye was the matte backing and the glossy sides which imitates that of the phone how it has a matte back and glossy sides at least in the case of the grey version of the One X.

}
Also shown in the pics you can see the cutouts for the rear speaker, headphone jack, power rocker, volume rockers, and USB port Which with them cut out like that they are super easy to press.
Fitment wise this thing fits the ATT One X like a dream, infact the fitment is so close it does take a little pressure getting the remaining two sides of the phone into the case.
an overall back view of the case installed, the cutouts for the rear speaker and the camera's LED are perfect, the camera isn't covered up all that great but, laying it on a desk or table it doesn't hit the camera bezel.
Heres a closer look of the camera area of the case when installed, as you can see the cutout is rather big but i have yet to have the lense or the bezel make contact with what the phone is resting on.
for the final picture i opted to take one with the screen protector installed just so everyone can see how it lines up. at the top its maybe a 1mm gap at the top and bottom, the sides have 4/5mm gap side to side, which i could live with, using a wet apply screen protector with this case WILL make the sides bubble up.
Overall, I love how this case feels when it is installed, how it feels in the hand. Almost like nothing is even on the phone, it's lightweight and very minimal bulk. The screen protector is a bit lacking on the sides but with the curved glass, what can you expect. Overall a very damn good case in my opinion hope you enjoyed the review.
Thank you for your review. Mine should arrive Monday.

I thought it would help some since I didnt see an actual review of the case but the one that I had bought was this one
"Matte Back Translucent Black"

I never cared to much for them either until i had my sgs2 with a incipio ngp, from there on i liked them. my normal choice for a case was otterbox but i didnt wanna put a bulky case on this slim device. so got to looking around on amazon and seen the diztronic.
Thanks for the review. I ordered two from Amazon. I've always like TPU cases, especially the ones made by Diztronic.
I had the white matte one for 3 days now. It fits perfectly just like op said. Light, beautiful.

yes please i'd love to see how this looks like in white. i hope its similar to the this one
I have been using the clear one on my white HOX as well.
It is pretty good, minimal bulk considering it is TPU and perfect fit, but it is still not as minimalistic as the official HTC clear hard case C700, but it will do the job fine till I get hold of the HTC one which fits AT&T XL phone, it will also be better because it protects the camera, the Diztronic case doesn't, or very minimal protection since it is cut outside the metal frame around the lens.
Just got mine in, color me surprised... I actually like it! This marks the very first TPU case that I don't mind having on my phone. Very slim, minimal bulk, and fits perfectly. My only complaint is that it makes the hardware buttons difficult to press but I can deal with that until something better comes along. I have like 6 other cheap cases enroute from China so we'll see when they come.
Ordered diztronic clear case on Tuesday, should be arrive on Saturday. I'm still waiting for the HTC hc v701 to be reviewed with att one x. Anyone tried it? Is it fit perfect with att model?

I really do like this case but the camera touches when it's laid on its back. Case quality is great. Dust does get behind it but since it's so easy to take off it's not a big deal. As long as you can remember to put your phone face down your fine with this case.
+1 to this case...MUCH better than the orange plastic one from HTC that I had....
Can't beat this deal off Amazon for 10 bucks
Also the clear version of this case with the white HOX looks great!
This TPU case looks nice. I am a fan of matte type of products! I just placed in my order through ebay. Thank you for sharing!
I like the case aside from the fact that its pretty fricken dirty after only 4 days. Gonna try to clean with alcohol wipes. Anybody have other suggestions?

The case adds very little to the over all size. It does weight more but feels solid. You actually remove the battery cover and replace it with the carbon fiber texture back battery cover. Again the nicest case Ive ever seen for any phone. I get people asking all the time what phone I have and half the time they have an S4. I started they strangers I got the limited edition S4 lol:silly:

I had an EVO 4g and believe me or not my son use it as his tablet (his 7) to this day. I loved that phone but most of the phone case for the S4 with kick stands look and feel cheap and plastic. For work I spend a lot of time selling in and out of offices ( the truth is I like looking right/good, House looking right, car looking right, watch looking right, glasses/sun glasses looking right, hair looking right and of course my phone GOT to be looking right) This case adds little to the size of the phone and it gets rid of the plastic look and feel because usually I rock the phone naked. Phone is in my hand now,"I feel Glass, Metal and carbon fiber (most likely fake)"= awesome. I know what your saying but this case look and feels FU%*ing right lol. Im not joking people ask me so much "what phone do you have" that now I tell them I got a limited edition S4 and they believe me.
I do hate how cheap our phone feels compared to the aluminum of the htcs. Case im usin now is just more plastic and im not really a fan of otterbox

I ordered the case from your first link too. For only 10 bucks I figured it would hold me over until the bear motion snap on cases come out. My case will be here tomorrow but who knows when the phone will arrive.
I like the motomaker bumper case, protects the edges but shows the design of your phone. Hopefully some aftermarket companies will start making bumper cases for a better price.

Given the shape of the Moto X, will a bumper case sufficiently protect the back of the phone, specifically the center? I like the idea of that bumper case, I'm just worried that since the phone tapers around the edges that the fat part of the phone in the middle will be susceptible to scratches and since I'm planning on a wood back that's a no go.

it looks thick enough that it'll raise the phone just a tad bit. i usually lay my phone face down, to protect the display. i am hoping the bumper gives enough lift so the front speaker grills don't get scratched

The bear motion cases add very little bulk to the devices and seem to protect the edges very nicely (at least they did on the Gen 1). Hopefully they will offer a 2014 model.

Ugh, again they cover the dimple. The original was probably the best case I've ever used, but how the hell do they decide to cover the dimple? I actually like the one on the 2nd gen more than the first.
edit: interestingly enough, the back of the phone isn't right in those pics on amazon. the flash isn't correct. here's hoping there's a chance they do have a cutout, even if i doubt it.

edit: interestingly enough, the back of the phone isn't right in those pics on amazon. the flash isn't correct. here's hoping there's a chance they do have a cutout, even if i doubt it.

Yeah I'm not sure what phone that is in the photos. It's not even the 1st gen moto X because I have several of those cases and they look nothing like that. I don't mind that they cover the dimple, but to each his own.
I have ReD trims but item is not available until end of october

Hey there I am looking for nexus 9 case
That provides some drop protection
Without being like a tank
i want something like the spigen Hybrid Series
but they don' make them for the n9
and the only case that i have find excluding book cover cases are
the Cruzerlite Bugdroid

But it provides very minimal protection
and the SUPCASE
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ONRSSF0/
Which proved extreme protection, but adding too much thickness to the device
so is there any suggestions for the any case you know about
I have the supcase and purchased it on its release. While it does add a bit of builk the device fits securely inside the front of the case and then the thicker rear snaps around the front. It is similar to the otterbox i guess however it does not have the rear shell. the rear of this case kind of is a hibrid of the plastic shell and a hard gel rear sort of thing

do you feel that the case makes the device
To become very bulky or is it Just little bit because in pictures it looks huge
ill be honest in that it makes the device bigger. It gives it a little bit of weight also.
in that though, i am used to it now and it provides excellent protection. i would recommend it to anyone who used an otterbox type case on their other devices. It was also half the price.
I was initially waiting for the poetic case however with shipping from america it was going to cost approximately 70-80AUS $. I got this case for about half that price, so very stoked.
I've found the Kayscase to be pretty decent. I have it in the frosted clear. I've never owned any of the Cruzerlite cases for devices, but I imagine the Kayscase would be similar. Also, I am not sure how well it would actually fair if dropped. However, it is reasonably light, doesn't add a ton of thickness or bulk to the case, seems to be easier to grip, and provides just a slight lip over the bezel and screen.
ETA: It occurred to me that the image shown below is probably a Nexus 7. The Nexus 9 version looks pretty much exactly the same, except it doesn't have the rear speaker cutouts. The shape of the rear camera cutout is also different to accommodate the flash on the 9.
You can find it here:
http://www.amazon.com/Google-Nexus-...d=1420779419&sr=8-2&keywords=kayscase+nexus+9
I have both the bugdroid and the supcase. I really an confident with the Supcase enough that I take it with me on the farm, something I haven't done with a tablet since back in my Xooms with the Defender case. Man, that thing was a monster to carry.
Honestly as long as supcase makes cases for whatever device I own I'll never buy another OtterBox. They're not quite as bulky and I honestly think they're better made. I have one on my nexus 6 as well.

OP, I know this is not what you asked for, but your title made me think of taking a hardcover book, and "Andy-Dufresne-ing" the inside of it to make it the dimensions of the Nexus 9, and then stabilizing it in there somehow. you would have to glue the edges of the paper together on the outside, but this could be a terrific idea... if done correctly.
For those who don't know what Andy-Dufresne-ing a book is, go home and watch The Shawshank Redemption.
I fully expect my "thanks meter" to shoot up through the roof right about now....

You are absolutely right. I mis-read, and I apologize. (And if i came off like i was yelling, i apologize for that also. Definitely wasn't my intention.)
I got a moko grey case. It's awesome! Super slim and all plastic so no worries of ripping or taring the fake leather.

I looked at that one as well but went with the Poetic hardshell case from Amazon (Can't post links yet ), it does add some bulk, but sure is secure. Still the purple one looks interesting.
Still scratching my head over the round cutout on the bottom front of the case. Was the Nexus 9 supposed to have a fingerprint sensor there?

I love Speck cases but they need more options. Only two colors for the Pixel XL. Black or Clear.
Pricey!! Good cases though. Just not sure I'll pay that much for a case anymore. Too many cheaper options that are as good
Sent from my SM-G930T using XDA-Developers mobile app
$45 are they on drugs? No thanks Speck. Overpriced garbage.
Got my black one for the XL on order from vzw.com. With my discount it was like $29. I'll post pics when it comes in.
Got the Presidio case in and i like it. It's similar to the old Grip cases that Speck makes. I've attached a few pics with size comparisons to the Moto Z Force and a 1st gen Moto X. Now I just need the phone!! :good:
I like the clear case, however I cannot find anywhere in Canada selling Speck? Amazon.ca only has iphone and speck.com doesn't ship internationally... that stuff drives me ape.
tigercranestyle said:
have to say i'm really surprised with this case. gray/black official google case was very nice but to say it is a lint magnet is an understatement. so i purchased the speck presidio today. you have to see it in person and feel it with your phone in it to appreciate it. it looks pretty clean with the silver xl. can imagine how stealthy it would look with the quite black.
i really can't say one bad thing about the case other than its price. they managed to keep it thin. as a matter of fact, it feels thinner than the clear case that they offer. the buttons offer clicky feedback, it's easy to take on and off, and doesn't scratch like the speck cases of old.
the best thing about this case? when you drop it, it bounces. almost like a rubber ball soft corners help with that). i feel super comfortable and i'm not not as careful when handling the xl now.
had the spigen ultra hybrid, clear speck, official google clear, and official google gray/black. this is easily the best of them all...imo.

yep. not sure how to get a discount though. sometimes with these case manufacturers you can leave an item in the cart and partially go through the purchase process (quit the purchase right before confirming the order) and they'll email you a percentage off. other times of you subscribe to their mailing list they'll give you a percentage off. didn't try it in this instance however. of course getting a discount on it at the vzw store won't happen.

I kind of love it.
I came from the spigen rugged armor and this is a little bigger, but not by much at all. It fits well and it does not seem to add that much bulk over all. Also the keys are responsive to the touch and I think the grips are set into the case a little better. With my last Spec case I had some of the grips peal, this one feels sturdier. It goes on and comes off pretty easy, but it doesn't feel like it's going to fall off. It's definitely my new daily driver.

I got my clear case with the Silver XL and it looks great. Coming from a Nexus 6 with no case, it's not too big at all. In fact, after I put the case on this, they're almost the same exact size. Got mine for about $35 after a 25% discount at the Verizon store. I know it's a crazy amount of money, but the case is great.
I got the Black Presidio on ebay. New In Box $19.99 when Speck and Verizon charge $45. Wish they had the blue though. I think it looks good with the quite black
