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

Need a sturdy case

I'm driving trucks for a living and need something that can take the bumps and drops. I'm in Australia so I need it to be available for me here

Ballistics SG! It was just a tad too much for me when I had it, but the case felt really really nice.

I want to suggest ballistic SG as well. You can grab one from Amazon for less than $20 and yet its very durable and effective. I dropped mine several times and the phone is still in pristine condition. Make sure you also grab a screen protector.

Not sure if you can get it, but I personally swear by Otterbox. Had it on my other phones and provided great protection. I don't think you're one to care about bulk, so I'd suggest the Otterbox. Plus, they have lifetime warranty on their cases; so if your case gets destroyed or the rubber flaps start to rip off, call them up and they'll ship you a brand new one for free.

I personally feel About Turning Leather Protective Sleeve, comprehensive protection outside dust, scratches can be very good to protect your phone is a good choice!! :fingers-crossed:

Throwing in another vote for the Otterbox, you can even find them on eBay for cheaper than retail.

+1 on Ballistic SG, I work outdoors and have dropped my phone many times and no problems, it's a bit bulky but well designed

Thanks for the suggestions peeps, I might try the ballistic first then the otterbox if that doesn't work for me

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

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.
Etsy one for 46USD

and Boxwave Classic Bookcover case for 30bux

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.

Moto X Syle- What's A Decent Looking Flip Cover?

A Decent looking flip cover
Hello so with my Moto x style on its way i have been hunting for a good looking flip cover.
But the ones i have found so far look super cheap and ugly adding a fair bit of bulk to the device.
Im looking for something like the flip cover you can get for the one plus one from there store its sleek black adds little to no extra bulk.
Has hardly any over hang and most important the phone is firmly in place and wont fall out.
I have been looking on both ebay and amazon and done a general google search without much luck.

That's the thing tho pretty much all of those look kinda eeh like the image you posted it looks like a sheet of cheap plastic.
The nicest one i can find on amazon is the Tetded Moto X Style Hand Crafted Slim Profile Genuine Cowhide Leather Case.
And its only semi decent i cant post a link yet cause i don't have 10 posts and while its decent its not quite what im looking for

Looking for one like this that is perhaps magnetic, and definitely DOESN'T have card slots.
You know, like the samsung ones. They're just a cover that shows the time through if you hit power.

How about this.. They have several different colors on Tetded.com no idea if its any good but it looks nice.

I ordered one from Tetded allso. should be ariving one of these days.

What's your first impression of the tetded case. I ordered a navy blue hardshell from them...

Actually I don't think it's worth the money, it looks quite cheap and at some points it doesn't really fit nicely especially in the lower right corner, there is some space between the back of the phone and the case. Will see what happens with it when I use it a bit more.

supple leather back only

I am looking for a good steer. One that doesn't mind being killed, skinned, tanned and slapped in the most minimal way on the back of my Pixel Xl.
Anyone know such a cow?

But seriously, I am not sure of any leather cases that are not of the wallet type. This one is simply a pouch...

Shame right. I love leather covers with no front. Such a rare happening in phones these days.
Also got that Maxboost clear case and MEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHH. Thick rear and I hate that. I don't want protection, just grip.

I'm surprised Google didn't come up with one to be honest. Even the iPhone had a nice leather case from Apple. It survived many concrete falls when getting out of my car.

Would be nice if these guys made stuff for the Pixel:

@slickwraps has a couple of the leather-like backs. Personally I'm hoping for the ostrich or football pig leather types ie https://www.slickwraps.com/natural-series-wraps-skins-for-nexus-6.html

I wish SENA would make a couple cases for us

Awe, thats a shame, @slickwraps naturals were fantastic on my Moto Nexus 6..

Yeah I'd love a minimal leather case, a la GS7E. I haven't really seen anybody who makes decent comparable cases.
