OEM HTC Hard Shell Cases for under $10

I was looking for the HTC metallic cases online, and found them on many sites for $19.95, which I didn't want to pay after seeing some posts on here saying the clips wore down. I found them on htcpedia.com for $8.99 for metallic, and $9.99 for the clear and black ones.

I've never purchased from them but you can use Paypal and there are customer reviews on the products so I gave it a shot. Just thought I'd share in case anyone else was interested!

What do you mean by metallic? are they metal or metal apearance with a plastic build..

That's just what HTC calls them, I don't know. Look at the pics?

Does metallic mean they're like my case? Mine looks plastic but the inside of it is metal, something about the signal, I don't know for sure.

Hmmm, if someone does decide to order, would like to hear a review on the quality.

Search this forum. There previous posts about it. Also a user from here made a YouTube video about the black one. Just search for it on there.
Also ime metallic refers to color and not material.

Here, I got the links for you.

I have the clear case. Bought it at my local T-Mobile store for $9.99. It has a very snug fit but looks amazing as it lets the sexinesss of the G2 show. The case has the stand which allows the phone to sit up on its own in landscape or portrait. Be careful pulling case off the back of the phone. Very tight and if not careful will scratch phone.

I think you're mistaken - these HTC cases don't have kickstands. I think Body Glove or someone made that one.
Anyway, just a quick review - my case got here in 2 days with Fed Ex (NY to IL), I'd definitely buy from that website again. The case made the phone seem bulky at first but after the first day I was used to it, and it doesn't seem odd at all anymore. I like the finish a lot. I would recommend these cases, especially since they're made by HTC and that gives them the best fit possible.

They are great, but they really get in the way when typing on the top row of keys.
Nonsense!

I wish shipping wasn't $6

Benks Magic Slim Back Cover - Blue

I have say I really enjoy this case. It's got a nice soft matte touch to it. It's not too extreme though where dust gets stuck to it and you feel it. Those cases drive me crazy.
I definitely recommend it if you can wait 2.5 weeks for it to arrive. They come in black, clear, and blue. They all have a slight frosted look.
Also, this case is designed for the international HTC One X. So the camera and speaker hole will be slightly off since the AT&T One X and One XL is slightly longer. It still fits great though and the camera lens is PROTECTED!
I was only able to find them on eBay. Here are the links: Blue Black White
Thank me if you like and buy one too!

It's pretty slick but I'm anal about my cases, if it doesn't fit perfectly than i won't use it. That said, if they came out with one specifically for the AT&T one I'd be all over it like flies on sh*t.

Lol...I love the case so much, I would buy it too

This is one of the better minimalist cases I've seen. Might pull the trigger soon if no ATT version comes out.

It fits perfectly fine. The camera is the only thing off. Either way, the lens is protected. Heck, it's only $12 lol. I'll use it until a proper one comes out.

This is the only case of this type I have seen. Am I missing something or do all the cases seem bulky and hide the design of the device?
I'd buy this if it fit immediately.

Incipio SA-316 Feather case

I have one too. So far so good, though I didn't use the screen protector that came with it.
Is there a docking cradle that works with this case? I bought the one recommended by Samsung (EDD-D200BEGSTD) but it doesn't fit at all. There's a ridge in front of the USB connector that pushes up against the keyboard. I don't think it would fit even with the case off...

you mind posting links to cases that fit well?
i didn't get a case for the new cell so far since i always had trouble with them falling off when sliding the keyboard in and out after a while or didn't really fitting at all.
but if there's one that you ppl could recommend... my new electronic toy could use a lil extra protection

Case/cover.
I'm trying to find that case in UK as from us it will be about £20 !
Does anyone know where to buy it in UK or any online site but cheaper.
If not I will go for it as need to protect my precious (still waiting to be delivered).
Can anybody post some photos of that case as even on google pictures they not show it cover fully unit.
Or maybe someone have any alternative?
Regards
Mac
UPDATE
I just bought SA-321
http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...alpro-hard-shell-case-with-silicone-core.html
And even found discount code 20% less !
So I am happy now, no need to buy screen protector even.

Looks pretty good honestly, I may get one of those feather cases.
Here some pictures:

(If you want to buy one there, you may want to use the coupon code "inc20" - saves you 20%.) (expired)

Just ordered the SA-321 for my wife's Relay. Btw, the coupon code no longer is active.

I have just received an SA-321 case. It's of very good quality and I like the rubbery-but-not-too-much feeling of it. Compared to the SA-316, it covers the power and volume buttons. It makes the power button a lot easier to press and the slide-out mechanism feels somewhat more solid.
I like it a lot.

Agree. Though a bit pricey, my wife fell in love with it instantly. Great feel, good protection, and looks great too.:good:

Looking For: N4 Wallet

Hi guys, im looking for a case like this, but under $30. I dont like the ones that have the TPU case glued into a leather fold... I prefer it to just have a pocket I can put my N4 into. I went through the master list, and search but couldnt find anything. This one is like alligator & ostrich leather... I dont need something that fancy: http://www.ebay.com/itm/PUHAMA-HC20...t=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item5aed119dcb

Any suggestions?

I found this while surfing through search results, its what im looking for... but I have no idea what this website is, and it looks like this is sold: http://www.etsy.com/listing/108654444/hand-stitched-sleeve-wallet-for-samsung?ref=cat_gallery_22
Any suggestions? Thanks.

I really like this one...its is for an iphone but its the syle im after : http://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/111901780/personalized-iphone-4-5-passport-card?ref=exp_listing

I personally have this case
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00CHXBTC6/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1373483971&sr=8-1&pi=SL75
and its been amazing so far. I've had it about 5 months already and its still holding up very well. My only complaint is that when you fill it with a ton of crap it tends to bulge when its closed. but other than that its awesome, and its just over 5 dollars

Here's some cases that I have come up with in searching this forum. Sorry for any large pics, I took them from various sources like Amazon.
EDIT: I noticed you didn't like the tpu in the fold...sorry missed that! lol. I think the first link below is your best bet then.

How about the dodocase wallet for the nexus 4. Maybe slightly above budget

That first one is about the closest I've found also but it's too expensive. It would be 60 with shipping. I'm looking to keep it under 40. The other two have the tpu case glued in that I'm not looking for.

I saw that but I don't want a pouch. I'm looking for an actual wallet that has a large enough pocket to put the phone into.

I bought a similar pouch a while back for my nexus 6p from the same seller on etsy. She has all sorts of choices on etsy. On etsy there is an option to ask for a little more room to accommodate a bulkier case. Shipped from overseas very quickly.

Thanks. I ended up ordering one shortly after I posted this thread. I'm pretty happy with it. I really ****ing hate cases and screen protectors and all that stupid **** when I'm actually trying to use the device, so this is a good alternative to going completely naked.

I'm using a Shocksock https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pixel-XL-S...1481124207&sr=8-1&keywords=pixel+xl+shocksock. I specifically wanted one that would fit the XL while keeping the back cover. That way the screen is only exposed when I'm using it, but if I drop it the Spigen case (Rugged Armour) should still protect the phone. It was a tight fit at first but it's loosened off nicely and I'm delighted to have found it.

I've used these for several years. They seem to be a good quality pouch.
