My desire case experience

Bought a case from Amazon for £1.79 and wanted to share what a great find it is.
Already bought a Krussel leather off the self from CPW which was fine for a while but now it has loosened a bit a couple of times the phone has almost flown out of the pouch. Luckily I never dropped it!
In some desperation I searched for a silicon/gel case to get me by till some official cases appear on the market. I knew others had some mixed reviews about the nexus one cases mobilefun were selling but I didn't want to spend that much on something that I was intending to be temporary. Instead I found this on amazon Accessory Village HTC Google Nexus One (Black) Super Hydro Gel Protective Armour/Case/Skin/Cover/Shellon.
It's really good! Power button and volume buttons are perfect with raised bits over them. All holes match up fine, only part that is not perfect is the speaker holes on the back and I'm sure I can modify them.
I've taken some pics and will upload them later when I get in front of my pc.

Great find!
Looking at it, it seems to be identical to the one that MobileFun are offering, albeit you save 9 of your Great British pounds
I ordered one the same as this from eBay earlier, I hope it does the job till something more permanent comes along!

I have this aswell.
It's a slightly tighter fit than one would expect, and i do fear it may start to damage the back of the phone if left on for a long period of time. When i say that i mean the rubber type material on the back of the phone may start to wear away? There's been reports of it already.
It is for the Nexus one and not Desire (like so many right now) but for the money it's a good temporary case.

Argh. Got side tracked last night and ran out of time to post pics. Will do that later this morning.
Forgot also to mention 2 important things.
1 the supplier doesn't charge delivery in the UK and it arrived next day.
2 the case pictured is totally different from the one I received. It's not black, its semi transparent with a nice dotted pattern. It doesn't have a hideous red stripe across the back and there is no nexus one logo on it. In fact as its semi transparent u can pretty clearly see the HTC logo through it.
Something else, the case is a perfect fit I think. Its just tight enough to make it just a little difficult to put on but not so tight you think it will damage the phone.
Pics now below. Ignore the screen protector its just a temporary one till a proper one arrives.

I bought the same case but paid 2.95 on ebay :-(
Agree it's a good fit, but still concerned it might mark the phone, which I can only see it doing if removing and inserting the phone from the case a lot, as it's a good fit and does not move around.

don't worry about it marking the phone, I have exactly the same silicon case but for htc hero (the same colour, looks and all) and it has never marked my phone for 9 months I've been using it.

Thank you zzleezz, your pics made me order this cover

Your very welcome
Thanks for the info Predo, nice to know it will be kind to my phone. How does your hero version look after 9 months in your pocket? Still have the shine?
Saquib - 2.95 still a very good price
Have now put a Vikuiti screen protector on mine, wow, silky smooth. Really easy to fit and worth the £9ish I paid for it. So glad it was on there as ive already managed to scratch it with something, no idea how just glad it wasnt the screen Also bought this from Amazon and was delivered from Germany in 2 days with free delivery. Very easy to fit too.
One other thing about the case, it fits so well that if your screen protector is also a perfect fit then the case tends to lift the edges of the screen protector. You can see that on the pics above. I had to trim a little off the corners a the top of my screen protector to stop this but its now perfect.

look just like new. i think that this case is awesome and will deffo be getting one for desire when i eventually buy it.

Yeah, I was a bit confused when I tried to search it on google, but then searched it on amazon and found it straight away: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Accessory-Village-Google-Protective-Armour/dp/B0038A5AF4/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1272645896&sr=8-2-fkmr0

Hard gel case specifically for HTC desire is now available from HK Seller!

Sorry for the confusion. As posted by someone else already this case is the exact one. Note that the pic in the link does not match the actual item I received. Might be worth contacting them first in case they revert back to the nexus one branded one.
Good luck

I ordered one of those. But since its from HK it will probbably take a couple of weeks to arrive.

Just so you guys know - I ordered the case via the amazon link for the hybrid protective armor and didn't receive the same as the original poster. Mine is a hard 2 piece shell, rubberized on the outside but plastic in the inside - I haven't actually received my desire yet (stupid vodafone) but I'm not sure how good it would be. The back clips on to the front fascia. Seems pretty sturdy but not sure if the plastic would scratch the Desire at all? It's not a gel case anyway.
Anyway, just a warning - maybe they didn't have the one in stock for me.. or even for the original poster - my invoice said HTC google nexus one hybrid black. I can take photo's if anyones interested

I was afraid of this. Hope your case ends up being ok, but as was thinking when I originally ordered mine its not a great deal of money to risk

I have mine (which is the same as the pictures on the first page and cost £1.79 from Amazon). I think it looks pretty good to be honest, not sure about the feel, but the problem is I don't have my bloody Desire yet! T-mobile still haven't sent me one and I ordered it 16 days ago now. This wait is horrible!

I hate waiting for gadgets to arrive in the post, often end up paying over the odds just so I can pick things up from a shop..
Feel for you Tom, can reassure you that the case looks a whole lot better on the phone than off it. And as for the desire itself I'm just blown away. Came from a HTC touch hd, had almost made up my mind to go for a iclone when I saw techradars top 15 phones on the planet (iphone number 2 and desire number 1).
Now I've convinced my wife to upgrade to the legend ill be in tech heaven for the next year

Nice inexpensive G2 case

I bought this case for my G2, and I LOVE IT!

I got it for $2.30 + $2.33 shipping. It fits great, looks good, and doesn't really add much thickness to the phone at all. It has a matte black finish, and a slightly rubbery feel. Not sticky like the gel case, though. It slips in and out of a pocket just fine. It fits exactly like the T-Mobile brand gel case, just without the added thickness of the gel part.
All of the corners are well protected, and the raised edge around the screen should add some protection there, too. I'm just glad I can set my phone down without scratching up the brushed metal battery cover (any more than it already is). I will try to post up some pics soon. Gotta find my camera or bust out the old N1.
I actually just placed an order for 2 more cases, and the shipping is still $2.33. So for under $7, I'll get 2. One is for a friend, and one is for a spare for me. I figured I'd get it now. Sometimes these deals disappear.
EDIT: To be more precise, the shipping did jump up to $2.95 for 2, so the total was $7.55. There are several different vendors on there with different shipping options. YMMV

just went to amazon to order one...price came up as $1.65 + $2.98 shipping. I upped it to 2 cases and it jumped to $5.96 shipping. I have no problem paying that for 2 cases but how did you get it to stay at $2.33 shipping?

Probably a different vendor. Like I said, it was the one selling for $2.30. Can't go wrong either way, though.
Each vendor has different shipping options and policies. I edited my post above to reflect that.

tmobile selling the same one for $16 each... wtf

I got that same case from Amazon (for a bit more $) but sent it back because it got in the way of the touchpad, which I use pretty extensively for navigating, copy/paste, etc.
For $5 that case is a great deal!

Picked a couple up. We shall see how good these work. The one thing I can see being annoying is make it more difficult to use the touch pad.
Boogy

The trackpad still works the same for me, and I have big thick awkward sausage fingers. This case is super thin. In fact, it seems to have eliminated the issue of the optical trackpad activating on its own occasionally. It hasn't done it once since I installed the case.
It doesn't seem worth it to return a case that only costs a couple of dollars. You'd have to pay that much to just ship it back! I wouldn't go overboard and order like 10 of them unless you already know you like it though...
The gel case at T-Mobile definitely makes the trackpad hard to use, though. Its very thick, even around the optical trackpad. Inner monologue: "Enough about the gel case already...everyone knows you hate it!" Is it weird I have conversations with myself sometimes?
I'm a cheapskate when it comes to accessories, so the price trumps all for me! Not to mention, flat black is always AWESOME.

this price is awesome. i ordered one.

How long did shipping take?

Nice find man
Just bought one it was $2.50 + $2.98 s/h. Sucks when the s/h is greater than the product itself but oh well.
Oh yeah and I used the AMEX reward points too.
Again, good find. Gonna return this Tmo one to the store

can you post some pics of it?

Sent from my HTC Vision G2

nice, it doesn't cover the buttons. i don't think i'd like it to though... feels weird.
thanks again

Just ordered one! Only $4.70 after shipping. Will post my thoughts after I get it. Thanks OP

Yeah, price jumped up for me, shipping went down.
$3 for the case, $1 for shipping.
Excited for it. Nabbed some (a five pack.) screen protectors for like, $1.50 and $1 shipping in the recommended items section.
Thanks for pointing this out, man. Been dropping my phone too much. :s

Is there any way to remove the cover once you put it on? its really snapped on tight. I mean the fit is great, but im worried i wont be able to take it off if i ever need to get in the back.

what i usually do is on the upper left of the phone (the keyboard portion) you can see a clip. I dig my nail in there and kind of pry that off, then shift the back casing side to side till all of the rest snap off. The top same deal, but I think the clip is near the search button or mic.
Then again this is the Tmobile Gel one. The one from amazon still hasn't shipped yet!

If anyone wants cheap screen protectors...

Here are some cheap screen protectors, the cheapest ive found just to protect your screen before the more expensive ones come along!

thanks I'll get one of these today

what i don't understand is why all this sellers don't ship immediately, they all ship after the 13th why can't they ship right now so we have when our phone arrives?

My money is on that most of them do not have custom size to n4 and are waiting for their phone so that they can machine a custom protector

Wait, is the delivery ABSOLUTELY FREE TO CANADA?

Does anyone know if this is adhesive or static cling? Also, how are all of these being made already if the phone isnt even out, is there a risk that these will not fit as well as the ones that come after the phone comes out? Lastly, does anyone know if this will cover the curved edges as well or just the flat screen?

Too many questions for 6 screen protectors worth $2, and since no one has the phone or these screen protectors there aren't any answers to your questions.

The international shipping is a killer.

Wait for a couple of weeks and then check AliExpress. 100 SPs for about 20 bucks is the current rate for phones like the S3 and iPhones if I remember correctly. That site is awesome for 'cheap' knockoffs.
Got an iPhone ElementCase (original 140) for 20 bucks (shipping included). Couldn't have been happier.

They've just shipped my order. Anyone else?
You know... sometimes I feel that if I'm going to order a 350$ phone, I can also afford 13$ screen protectors. In the end, however, I always wonder if it's really worth the expense.
I'll judge when I will finally put these cheap ones on.

I got mine this morning - ordered 2 packs as it was buy 2 get 1 free so got 18 lol - wish I hadn't
They are a bit thin and not the usual 3 ply I'm used to - general poor quality - personally I wouldn't waste my money on them. when you apply them they scratch very easily.

Thanks for the quick review, I think that anyway it's better to waste 3$ for 18 pieces rather than 13$ for two.
We'll just have to make do with these and wait for some proper reviews of the other ones

I personally use the cheap ones till the more expensive ones come out, just something to keep the phone in perfect condition and besides, its only £1.20

Mine also arrive today. Pretty poor quality, but for the price I'll just put one on the front and back until my bestskinever arrives and I buy a case. It's better than nothing.

dbrand experience

Hey everyone, im kinda new here so correct me if im doing something wrong.
Now onto the subject, i have my moto x for 2 months now and had a case but i dont really like it, but i want some protection so i looked for other options and came to dbrand. Its quite expensive for a skin (10$ + 5$ for shipping) but maybe its worth it. So maybe one of you guys has experience with dbrand and want to share it. Also i want a screen protector so if anyone has suggestions, they are welcome
Thanks a lot for helping me!

Protection from what... scuffs and scratches? Here a skin would be fine.
From drops? Forget it and get a case, or at least a bumper.

Yeah fpr scratches mostly, i never ever let a phone drop. Never did it before never gonna happen

I have many many dbrand skins and they have top botch customer service. Their skins are also the best fitting ones I have used. I've tried skinomi, slick wraps, and bodyguardz. They ship from Canada and drive across the border to mail the skins via USPS. So that's why IRS more expensive for shipping (usually on $3CAD which is cheaper than 3$USD obviously) there are many threads about their skins, but I recommend you look in the Nexus 6 section because the OP for dbrand is 600+ posts long with many pictures and customer experiences.

it's perfect to protect against scratches. I had one on my nexus4 so that i didn't scratch up the glass back & have one on my moto x right now. there's a thread in here that I created that has a couple of pictures from us that have them.

not sure if im late on this and you decide yet or not, but i had a wood skin on my n4 that fit excellent, and a brushed aluminum and carbon fiber for my nexus 7 2013 version that fit well and covered the soft touch rubber dimpled back. i purchased one for my moto x 2014 on december 26th, it was my first bad experience with dbrand. it wasnt necessarily bad because of the product or anything, it fit excellent and looks great (i dont like cases either so a skin was more to give me somehing to hold besides the slipper back), but it took for ever to get here, i just recieved it today, January 10th, thats 15 days, i also paid 3 dollars for shipping and it arrived in a lick-and-stick white envelope with a $.48 stamp so not sure where the other 2.62 went, i saw someone mention they drive them across borders but idk about that. the product is great as i mentioned, but expect to wait to get it. i actually ordered a case for it (the light duty unicorn beetle), because i hadnt recieved the skin, and was worried about scuffing or dirtying the back panel (white on my phone), and it arrived before the skin despite being ordered 9 days after ordering the skin lol.

Thanks for sharing, i ordered mine a few days ago and they said shipping time is longer than usual, because of fewer orders. (I live in europe so shipping costs are 5$) i hope its worth it, i got the dark wood one

That's correct they do drive across the border to ship them. I've had orders take 30+ days but you have to remember that USPS is delivering it SK if it takes forever you can thank them. I do wish they offered faster shipping or at least tracking but I doubt they will.
I made a guide/comparison between all of the skins I've tried so far from dbrand and SlickWraps in the Nexus 6 section. My wife doesn't like skins of her Moto X but I did manage to get her the matte black camera one which she is OK with and it helps prevent scratches to the lens. Check out the pictures and guide I wrote on the skins if you want an idea of what to expect from each company. I've ordered many skins and I have more on the way and I can attest to each companies products and how they work. I've had issues with both companies but both did work to address them.
Here is the OP if you wanted to check it out:

Rhino Shield case and screen protector

Looks like Rhino Shield will be shipping case and screen protector for the 6p starting in January. They are pricey however...$24.99 for each. Anyone have experience with Rhino products and can tell us if they are worth the premium?

They are AWESOME, and I consider it a major selling point for any phone that this bumper is available for. So glad it is coming to my Nexus 6P. But with that said, I am not a fan of any screen protector so I just ordered the bumper. Hopefully I won't drop it face down on a sharp rock. (c;

The bumper is looking good! I already have the spigen rugged armor, not sure if to buy the bumper...

Search YouTube for 'Erica Griffin' or 'David Pogue' along with 'rhino shield' to see how amazing these bumpers are.

Use code NEXUSOWNS for 20% off. I just ordered 1 for 19.99

It is explained on the page in the product details. It is protection for the back. Some sort of skin I am guessing.

Yeah I figured that much out as well.. I was just seeing if anyone had an inside scoop on the details of the back protector lol

Does anyone know how much bulk this adds to the phone? From the YouTube videos I saw it seems like its quite bulky.
Anyone here ever tried this case on another phone? If so what was the overall experience and impression?

I was really hoping that the dark blue would be available for preorder but was let down. Emailed them and asked them if there were any future plans on dark blue or any other colors. So there is some good news for people holding out from buying because of color.

Looks like pre-orders are now shipping on the 15th according to their website. Original date was the 10th. Not that 5 days is a big deal but why not under promise and over preform? Why not say the pre-order ship date is "X" and then ship them sooner? It just makes for a better experience for the customer. I know it's not a huge deal but little things matter.

Cancelled my order as my speck candyshell got delivered early.... Plus didn't really like the project s... Concept that they introduced... Would buy a case like playproof

They just said this on Facebook:
The shipping date has not been confirmed just yet but it should be this week, and the latest will be beginning of next week. We are running the final testing, to make sure the bumper will perform properly, as you know our bumper is not just any ordinary nexus case; it offer significant impact protection function. We are at the last stage of stress test, so please bear with us.

They still haven't confirmed exactly what Project S is. I know it is something with Dbrand. But they aren't really confirming it is just a Dbrand skin. If it is, that would be ridiculous.

Sorry to disappoint, but I pre-ordered the Crash Guard so I also receive e-mail updates. Project S is, indeed, just a black dbrand vinyl skin. As soon as I found out, I e-mailed Evolutive Labs asking for Project S to be removed from my preorder. Still interested in checking out the Crash Guard, even though I'm plenty happy with my Speck Candyshell, and I've got a Cover Up wood case pre-ordered as well.
They said that they're working on alternatives to the dbrand skin, but they wouldn't have been ready in time for the launch of the Crash Guard, so Project S (as it stands right now) is really just a stop-gap measure.

They also changed the date of the preorder. Was January 10th now it is January 15th
