Silicone Case For The XDA 2
Had a play with one last night, feels good in the hand and does not look too bulky, more importantly phone signal is NOT affected. I'll be ordering one this week

Bye,

It appears this case has no screen protection, and no way to attach it to your belt...? Is that true, or did I miss something?
otterbox are the Sh*t when it comes to there cases as you can see on youtube when they run over a iphone with a car and drop it in the water
and otterbox are finally bringing it to the nexus one
http://www.otterbox.com/nexus-one-cases/
there are 2 cases
Google Nexus One Impact Series Case
Price: $19.95
and
Google Nexus One Commuter Series Case
Price: $34.95
it look like it dont have screen protection
what you guys think
it's about time!..i have the commuter for my bb9700 and love it...
**just checked and it's not for sale as of yet..
my field of work warrants an otterbox for sure but i want one that is waterproof.
cant have an otter that wont get wet.
cool stuff
I am pretty excited I have never had a phone that Otter made a case for, but my friend has a Defender on his 3Gs and it works for sure! I wish they covered the front of the phone though... I might get the Commuter series, but I already have a Body Glove case and Tough Case from Case-Mate lol
But I signed up to be alerted, because it looks sleek and much stronger than anything I've seen so far!
Edit: The clear film looks like a screen protector for the front! Click on the PDF at the bottom
I also already have the Body Glove for my N1...But that Otter Commuter for the N1 looks seriously kick-ass!

it's a really good idea to sign up for the email notification - companies gauge customer sales by this... ;-)
Just signed up for this bad boy
I'm going to need to see some reviews of this one before buying.
The reason i bought a case-mate tough case is because one person wrote that his nexus one survived a 35 foot drop onto concrete. If this otterbox could do the same and then some, its worth it and i'll buy it. I'll be looking forward to those reviews (and pics) guys. Peace
Whats the difference between them?
Looks like the "Impact" one covers more of the phone? but then its also cheaper?

I have the impact and the commuter for the iPhone. If they are anything like those:
The impact is a simple silicone case, a very nice hardened silicone that doesn't attract nearly as much dust and grime as your typical case.
The commuter may be one piece or it may be two, its like an impact case (silicone) with a hard plastic shell over it, this means that it slips out of your pocket much easier. It also has plugs to plug up the holes that flip out.
I just got a confirmation email from Otter Box that the Nexus One case is now available.
Just put a order in for a commuter case. Shipping was $4.80 for USPS ground. This code gave me 10% ($3.50) off of my order.
amcc0310n (found it here)
I'll post some pictures and a review when it gets here. Anyone have any experience with their screen protectors that comes with the case?
Have seen a few on Iphones they were bubbled. Maybe they didnt install them right. I'm sticking with my amzer screen protector. And using the commander case. I'll have ultimate protection best skin ever, amzer screen protector and otterbox commuter case. SWT
Well I will be ordering a Commuter on payday tomorrow, and I hope that 10% off works haha
Thanks

The 10% off coupon codes are good until May 31st.
Justed ordered commute case, thanks for coupon, works good.
Has anyone found a holster that would work with the commuter case for the N1? I have the Seidio Innocase II combo right now and I need the holster for my line of work!!!
What case will you be getting, if any?
Post your $0.02, give a little review, discuss.
I'll start:
I ordered an otterbox commuter series case for the Desire HD, and am crossing my fingers that the Inspire and DHD are exactly the same. I feel like the commuter is the best balance between essential protection, without adding too much more bulk onto an already large device (to me, slimness is a deal breaking factor). When it comes in, and I have the phone on the 13th, I will test it out and report my findings. If it doesn't fit - I'm going to go with the case-mate 'barely there' case. The only reason I did not choose this case - strangely enough - is that it didn't cover the aluminum/glass seams on the front face of the phone.
Has anyone owned an otterbox before? Please comment on the quality, snugness, design etc - let me know what I should expect.
When I first got my Captivate I also ordered the Otterbox Commuter, however it was a bit too bulky for me since I like the aesthetics of the devices that I buy, and it hampered it too much.
With that said, I will first start out with a naked device, then I might move to a PhantomSkinz Chromatic skin. I love those things.
If I want a bit more protection, then I will definitely be getting a CaseMate Barely There too.
Heh, I also just ordered the OtterBox commuter case for DesireHD, it shipped out today. I'm hoping it fits ok, it should...
I love otterbox protection but hate the bulk. I will be going with a casemate gel skin and a gelaskin for the back along with an invisible shield for the screen

I am thinking it will fit perfectly - after doing more case research last night I found that Seidio is advertising cases for the Inspire/DHD. Unless they are purposely making a blanket case with some added "wiggle room", I believe they know for a fact the two devices share the same dimensions.
When did you order yours? I ordered mine last night (2/7/11, 11:30 pm) and have not received a shipping email yet.
Is the commuter really that bulky? I wonder how easy it is to return a case to them...
Edit: Just checked out their return policy. Seems pretty basic, except shipping costs are non refundable. If it turns out I don't like the case, I'll eat the charge for shipping it back to them (I used a coupon code that got 10% off/free shipping).
I will get the accessories package at the at&t store, but if that isn't enough, I may buy this: http://www.case-mate.com/HTC-Desire-HD/Case-Mate-HTC-Desire-HD-Clear-Armor.asp
What do you think?

I ordered mine on 2/07 at 2am, and got the shipping confirmation later the same day at 7pm... So that's about 17 hours, lol. I'm guessing that yours will probably ship out by 2/08 at some point? I'm pretty sure we'll get them by the end of the week. I used the same deal, 10% off with free shipping.
I have not seen the OtterBox Commuter cases in person, but they look a lot less bulky than the Defender cases! A friend has the Defender case for iPhone 4 and while it's nice, it's freakin' huge, haha. I think the Commuter series is supposed to be like a lighter version of the Defender, which is exactly what I want.
I always had the gel skin case made by boxwave. It's very easy take off and on. Feels good in your hand. It's doesn't add bulk. They also have one for desire hd which should fit the inspire. I am very excited about the release.

My experience with these cases are never good. While they seem great in theory, I have the way that without fail - dirt and lint get stuck on all of the edges of the plastic. Whether you keep it in your pocket or keep it in your hand, it has happened on every clear shield I have applied. Not to mention they are very tricky to apply to contoured surfaces. They protect from scratches, but don't drop it - your edge will still be exposed (which is probably what is going to hit the ground first)
I have only owned the zagg versions of these, so I don't know if the case mate ones are any different. The last one I owned was actually for an iPhone 4. While I was in the store, despite my previous experiences with them, I thought that it would be a good idea - since the front and back of the iphone 4 are completely flat. While it was a breeze to install, the plastic protector never quite took hold of the glass surface and when I would put it in my pocket, I would remove it to find the protector all disheveled over the phone. I eventually just ripped it off and found a slim hard case.

If you'd like to take a gander, check out this youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=123iryBuCcs
It's a home-made vid, but you get the idea.
Thanks for the vid link, case looks awesome, doesnt seem bulky at all
Case
This case has great reviews on an htc desire site. Its made from TPU which is a little harder and less "sticky" than a gel case. Same material as my iphone's iskin case which I've had for over a year. I've dropped it multiple times, and no damage to the phone or case. Prob the best material IMO. Here is the link : http://www.eforcity.com/tpu-rubber-...04.html?efprcggbadtf110207=sc+gb+chtcdesisc04

Probably similar to the Flexishield case I have on my Hero. If so, they are great.
Just ordered that case, $3.79 shipped on eBay.
I plan on getting the seidio innocase II case holster combo for the inspire when it ships
Cool, my OtterBox Commuter case (for Desire HD) came in today! Took 3 days total with (free) shipping via USPS Priority.
The case is NICE! Way better than I expected and really not too bulky looking at all. I'd say no thicker than any other normal case. I like the combination of the rubber + hard shell. The case also has a nice texture to it as well. Now I just hope it fits the Inspire ok, lol.
I pre-ordered from Radio Shack, guy told me they were getting the Inspires in "early" for the 10th, because they're trying to compete with Verizon iPhone (which launches on the 10th). I have no idea if he's right or not, but will call on Thurs afternoon to check, and maybe I'll have a nice surprise...
I preordered mine through radioshack as well i hope they call me earlier than the 13th to come pick it up. i'm paying retail for the phone so i wonder if I'll get the 30 accessorie gift card? Any suggestions?
So we can buy any desire hd case and it will fit the inspire?

I ordered 4 of them from the shack and was told I would get the $30 card for each phone. Also not sure if you did this or not, but on the bottom of your preorder receipt theres a survey link , tkaes about 3 minutes, and at the end you print out a coupon for $10 off your next $40 purchase (picking up the phone )
I bought just the Platinum Series case that best buy sales it was a very nice case. GPS friendly could still get a lock inside my house, the inside was lined with a velvet like material and it had a very tight fit. The only thing I didnt like about it was the volume and power buttons were exposed, so I took it back and had them order me a Platinum Defense Series case. It has the rubber around it like the otterbox defender series. The guy at the store said you could use it with or without the rubber.Very nice looking cases .... and they also come with a belt clip.
Suppose to be in on Tuesday so I will let yall know how it is.
Platinum series 34.99
Platinum Defense series 49.99
Rebranded Seidio
Yeah I work at Best Buy and had one for a while, got the Case-Mate Tough Case. It is actually a rebranded Seidio (Innocase) product, and is pretty nice overall. However, the Tough Case is my favorite so far...

I have the Platinum Series, and love it. HIGHLY recommended. If done correctly, when removing the bottom cover of this case, it also removes the sim cover.
I have a platinum case very well designed. Had one for the Captivate too.
Any links to this case?
I have one of these. Pauz. And I reallllyyy like it
For links, go to Best Buy's website and search 'HTC Inspire', they come up.
I have the case and I absolutely love it.
I have this same case and no complaints here.
So I know I posted about this case earlier in the thread... But mine just took a tumble down 4 stairs and slid on the pavement. The case took the beating, and the phone is fine. Well worth every penny spent on it.
+1 here too. I love the case, I ride my motorcycle with the phone clipped to my belt, never worry about losing it.. Nice fit, secure lock into the case..
I highly recommend it.
This case it is useless if ur using it with and screen protector. It does pull the bottom edges on them. I have use both a Clear Coat and an Skinomi with the same result
Since this is a rebranded seidio case can the platinum case be used with the seidio rugged case known now as the convert case.
Pt case
On my Inspire 4G, I have the Pt case, with a Zagg screen cover and they work very well together. I don't feel the same damage prevention security I did with my otter on the iphone, but very close. That being said, I know this phone is not separating from the belt lock down case. With the case had a kickstand tho...since the phone doesn't.

I disagree. I use my case WITH a screen protector. you are being too hasty to put your case on. I was able to reproduce this with mine, but I had to put the casing on pretty quickly to do it.
SIDENOTE: Once you apply your new screen protector, wait 25 minutes or so before putting your case on. This will allow the screen protector to stay adheared to the screen.
Wow, 35 dollars for the same AMAZON sells for 20?

Anyone know of a case/holster combo that is not gigantic like the Otterbox? I usually buy the one that verizon sells, but it hasn't been available this time. Gotta have this phone on my hip rather than in my pocket.

I was just about to ask when I saw this at the bottom of the description.
" This product is NOT compatible with the Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 4."
They are working on it though. Looks like a really nice case.
I ordered the Seidio Surface and it's supposed to be delivered Friday. Reasons I ordered it are 1) immediate availability 2) can make it into the Convert model with the add on kit when available 3) has a hoster & 4) the kickstand.
With that said, I think the Surface case by itself is way overpriced and underfeatured. It doesn't even have covers for the side rocker switches let alone flaps for the headphone jack & mini USB port. Who's kidding who for $40 for the case alone? I don't mind paying for high quality but at the same time I want good value and if I wasn't going to turn it into the Convert model I wouldn't even have considered it.
Seidio does have a 15% discount code it's TREATS15 and it's valid thru 10-31.
I looked at the Seido cases and the whole surface vs convert thing is a little confusing. Will it cost you $50 more to add on the Convert kit when it is available?

The first layer of the Convert is the Surface. The Convert add on kit costs $30 and you get the rugged skin that covers the Surface & the exo-skelton & the holster. So it is $10 more to do it that way than to just order the Convert Combo plus it comes with their Ultimate Screen Guard which does not come with the add on kit. But the Convert Combo & the add on kit won't be available for about a month and I'm not going naked until I can order it. Hence I ordered the Surface so I'd have at least some protection in the meantime.
If you want a holster the Surface uses a different one than the Convert.
That's always the problem with a newly released phone, the cases take awhile to catch up. The Surface is the 4th case I ordered and the only one that was shipped. The other 3 orders were cancelled. When I can order the Convert add on kit I'm also going to order their Quest car mount, it needs the Convert add on kit to work. And I will be asking Seidio for a courtesy discount for the extra cost to do it this way.
So it looks like Seido is good about working with their customers. Hmmm...
But you end up with a holster and case that is similar in size to an Otterbox?

I would say the Seidio Convert is probably very similar to the Otterbox Defender in size. I've never actually seen either. Both are maximum impact protection cases. What I like better about the Seidio is the fact it doesn't have a built in screen protector so you don't have to go through the trouble of removing it to use a tempered glass one and the kickstand. Other thing that makes me leery of Otterbox is I've read a lot of reviews that state over time the Otterbox becomes loose.

This was definitely true when I used it on my Galaxy S3 and Droid Razr. They were good about sending a replacement but still...
I'm thinking about going with just the holster clip and going naked, are there any screen protectors that will cover the whole phone and edges. ??? This phone is to sexy to be in a case. I'm tired of cases.
