Somehow this lot of silicone cases has this special pattern and with their thick cuts that gives this case a bit of a luxury feel to it, and unlike the smooth silicone thin layer cases that might shift its position or collect lints. this one I had also for my other phones before, no regrets.
cheerio guys...
looks promising....any reviews?
To start off, I'm not a huge fan of cases. Yes they're cheap "insurance" but I just don't like the feel of them. Coming from a Bold 9700 I LOVED the synthetic leather backing used. Looked professional and gave me a bit of extra grip. Move onto this phone and it's quite slick. I would like to put some sort of backing on it for extra grip, but I feel that grip tape would look tacky(I'm picky) and be too aggressive. Just wondering if anyone has gone this route with another material instead of using a case.
if you like the look of Carbon Fiber the phantomskinz carbon fiber chromatics give a nice grip to the back of the phone ( at least they did when I had it on my Captivate). I think the other Chromatics are smooth though so you have to get either the white or black carbon fiber ones.
Thanks for the company. They seem to have some stuff that might fit the bill. I also found a company that has sheets you can cut to fit at work, and being the forgetful person that I am, forgot to write the name down. :hs: And why does the iPhone get all the cool cases/grips?
Anybody know where I can get an adhesive sheet to stick to the back of my touchpad to make it more grippy? This thing is slippy as. Something like a racquet grip, ideally.
I was thinking the same thing until I bought the HP Case for it. It needs something to hold it in and this case, for me, is the best thing. It makes it feel like it is more usable and robust.
Why would you want to risk having adhesive stuck to the back of the unit?
I have the HP case. It's nice and slim but the front panel flapping around (or having to be held back) when open is a bit of a pain, and it also makes the shape uneven.

Here is some I have been looking at the carbon fiber helps, as I used to have one on my view-sonic gtablet:

http://www.bodyguardz.com/hp-touchpad-armor-carbon-fiber.html
I'm interested in seeing what may come out soon for the touchpad. I've seen a lot of sellers on Amazon that have products launching in early Sept. Specifically for the TP. I just want a nicely fitted silicone case and a anti-glare screen film for mine.
I ordered the ArmorSuit carbon fiber. Will report to the quality when it arrives.
I ordered a full body extremeguardz skin for $14.99 which should give it some good grip. I use one on my vibrant and it's pretty damn good
Use skateboard grip tape!
I don't want to cut my fingers

Similar skins on Amazon. I like the looks and you get a matching wallpaper to continue the design on the front - very cool. The Burlwood looks very rich.
Have a similar one on G-tab and I like it but have not decided to skin the TP ... yet.
I use the armorsuit full body skin... It's awesome. Isn't nearly as slippery but still has the naked look and is well protected.

Yes, I have one of their skins on both my Nook and my TP. The added screensaver looks very cool as nunjabusiness stated previously. Decalgirl will make any design they have for the TP, so if you see a design that you like, but it's not listed as a TP design, you can "Shop by Design", pick the design and then enter what device it's for. They usually ship the next day, even for special orders.
The skins definitely add grip. They fit perfectly (you may need to stretch it lengthwise a little when applying to the front, but my holes for the camera and home key are perfectly centered. I have the front side for my TP installed on top of an "Armor Suit" screen protector. No issues with the decalgirl skin sticking to the armor suit.
very quick 1 take video review I did here.

TLR - easy to fit, back looks good, not too impressed with front sticker.
So I've looked at all the popular cases and most of them were pretty minimalistic while offering protection. None of them had the pizazz I want though and I grow envious of iPhone users because they have much more interesting covers.
I'm wondering if there's more unique and special cases; I guess what I'm looking for are cases that are more "gimmicky."
I'm also interested in leather cases that are a hardshell with leather on the exterior without the cover flap.
I'd post pics but I'm a new member.
Nothing to help you, but I wish these guys would make some other cases: http://www.metaliphonecase.com/
i cant post a link (just re-registered) but type in g2x bumper case into google search and it will come up with the one i use. it kinda looks like the iphone bumper case but with a smoke grey back piece. hope that helps

Oh I like that... but too pricy.
TPU is the best stuff, it doesn't scratch or get dirty, and it's very grippy. I hate the back glass on the Nexus 4 as it's the opposite of all those things; I want a skin for the back of the phone but don't want a case (I use two docks and they have no clearance for cases.) I can find skins all day of fake carbon fiber and metal, but does anyone make a thin overlay of TPU? I'm beginning to think not, or that the way skins are made they are limited to a few textures. If anyone knows differently, shout it out. Thanks guys.
I don't know of any but that sounds like a really fantastic idea. I would buy one for sure

Yeah, I mean the carbon fiber twill looks nice (well, it did before it became so prevalent) but it doesn't add much tack to the surface. I just want the back to be made out of the same stuff the sides are.
