How are we going to carry this thing

OK, I am having a case crisis for the Universal.
It is too heavy for pockets. Carrying it closed for protection has problems (don't know about hinging that screen that many times, voice call doesn't work, can't see who's calling, etc.) so I will probably end up carrying it face up, and need protection for the screen. So the case is a must.
Here is what I could find that is available for the JasJar. Please share your opinions, experiences.
- The case that comes with JasJar: I am not going to say anything.
- XaX Leather Case: Seen this one in person. A very tight fit, and not a good one. I couldn't figure out how to make the camera work without taking it out of the case. It took me about 30 seconds of fiddling with it to decide I don't want it. http://www.expansys-usa.com/product.asp?code=125516
- The case at tabfone. I have no other info on this other than the picture they have which shows nothing. http://www.tabfone.com/pro_per_content.asp?id=82
- Proporta pouch case. I like pouch cases/holsters, so I am considering this one. I wish they had more descriptive pictures though. http://www.proporta.com/F02/PPF02P05.php?t_id=1354&t_mode=des
- Proporta book-like case: This looks good in the pictures, but what is that plastic wrap thing around the keyboard. Looks like it is a little pocket where the base slides in. How are we supposed to use the keyboard?
http://www.proporta.com/F02/PPF02P05.php?t_id=1353&t_mode=des
- PDair Leather Book Case: This looks similar to the Proporta book case. The last image (click on the main image) shows the problems of using the camera with book cases in general. http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/7749.htm
More pictures here: http://www.gadgetair.com/scripts/main/viewitem.php?itemid=1921&pdaid=190
- Non descript case: This one looks like the Xax. I like the horizontal carrying mode. http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/7866.htm
Let the money wasting begin

Thanks lord ! I was fed up to wear a DBU to go to wrok in order to carry my JasJar (this is the good effect of being the boss nobody can complain )
AnywaI I will get and try this one which really look like my old one for the 9090

Will order it and will let you know

I am also particularly interested in those that do buy and their feedback. Initial impressions are that it is going to add significant size to an already existing large size, it it gets much bigger we'll need a backpack.

I think that a vertical hanging case will work best becuase of the length of the unit. I have a T-Mobile pouch with a belt clip that came with my HP 6315 and the Jasjar fits perfectly in it. When I clip it to my waist there is a big bulg since it is in a horizontal position if I am wearing a suit jacket or an outside hanging shirt. I think if it was just hanging vertically it wouldnt even be noticeable.

I agree. I have a VajaCase for my XDA II with a belt clip that swivels.

It is just great. Unfortunately Vaja don't make a case for the HTC Universal yet.

Vaja once made a great case for a Sony PDA that also had a swivel screen. It was super thin but provided protection from scratches. I cant remember what the model of the Sony PDA was but it was several years ago. I put the case on the Clie and never took it off. The top part would just slip off screen so you could swivel the screen around. I have purchased several cases from them and this one im mentioning was the best ever. I am going to email them right now and make a request they make a similar case for the Universal.

Not a problem - it swivels out of the road!
The XDA II is the same length, slightly longer actually, just not as thick or heavy.

Question to Vaja said:
Do you have any plans for a case for the HTC Universal PDA known as the
"XDA Exec", "iMate Jasjar", "Qtek 9000", "MDA Pro", "SPV M5000", "Dopod
900" and "VPA IV"?
I have upgraded to this model and I miss my Vaja case!

Oh well,
here is my response from Vaja:
Vaja said:
We still can´t assure you if we´re going to develop a case for that device.
Anyway, we´ll contact you in case we do.
Thanks for your interest in our products!

i just love my jasjar! the last few days i have gone without a case. this was one of the reasons i liked the idea of the rotating screen. i feel its safe in my pocket with the screen protected.

OK so guys Forget about expansys.... I mean I always heard bad stuff n them, but my first purchase from them will be the last. I order my case, and after several days no change on my order, I called them and they said that I would have to wait 2 to 3 weeks to get my case.... :shock:
JUST FOR A CASE !

i've bought several items from expansys-US(jam,sp3i and jasjar). i never had problems from them in terms of shipping or product availability.

GM,
Did you buy your Jasjar from the USA Expansys site. If so, when? I saw it listed last month and order one, but now my "order tracking" says that it has been discontinued.
Where have others in the states bought their Jasjar from?
Thanks

I got my Jasjar from Expansys USA as well.

Thanks for the replies. I guess I'll have to give expansys a call. By the way, what was the date that you ordered your Jasjar from expansys? And what did they charge? Thanks.

i've bought the pielframa universal-case.
it fits 100% perfect like it was made for the jasjar. perfect!
and about the quality?! it's pielframa, i guess you or better i don't have to say anymore.
http://www.pielframa.net/prodi.asp?ID=412
and they also have a special jasjar made case:
http://www.pielframa.com/imate_jasjar.htm

hi zwuncki:
does the "universal" case from piel frama fit really well the jasjar? i looked at the specs on piel frama's web site and the "maximum dimensions"listed are 129 x 78 x 21 mm. The JASJAR is quoted as 127.7 x 81 x 25 mm, so it seems it is thicker and wider than the maximum "allowed" by piel frama.
does it fit really well in your experience?
does the belt clip rotate?
thanks,
fernando

Krusell will have a custom JJ case out in 5 weeks. Their universal PDA case seems suitable for the JJ; I have ordered one and will report back when it arrives. See here:

Lack of Cases for Artemis

Hi,
Is it just me or are the case manufacturers quite slow at getting out cases for the Artemis?
I would ideally like a Krussell Red Label Classic style case or a Brando with the horizontal flip that covers only the screen.
Was even thinking about trying an iPod Video case as they are about the same size as an Artemis. Would need to modify it a bit but I am sure it would do.
Does anybody have any idea of when more cases will be released? I am not interested in either the current PDair cases or Brando' first case offerings. Also not keen on a Silicone one as they attract to much dust and they done protect the screen.
Regards

Simply Number one case :

hi spangelsaregreat,
I know you say you have already rejected the PDair cases... but.. I bought one of GPSforLess (their ebay shop) until I find a suitable silicone case for my orbit and I'm really impressed with it.
The quality of the case and the stitching etc is very good....
HTH
Gaz

I've just ordered a PDair 'book' case for the orbit I'm getting next week - I was wondering if, with the design changes between the Artemis and the Orbit, all the holes line up in the right places?
Cheers and MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Hi,
As a stopgap I am going to get the PDair vertical flip case. I intend to modify it a bit by cutting it down so that it only covers the screen and not the buttons.
Hopefully Krussel will get there classic case out shortly.
Regards

Hi i got my case here guys hope this helps.

Very nice hardcase
Gents,
This weekend I found a shop that sells a aluminum hardcase for the Artemis.
They are called Siemshop and have a shop at Ebay.com.
It comes in 2 different versions: aluminium and black anodised.
Price is approx. 19 USD.
I order a black one yesterday and will post my findings ones I have reveived it.
Lars

I already have one of the cases from Siemshop, I have the brushed aluminium case and it is a near perfect fit apart from there is a slight issue with removing the stylus while the phone is in the case.
I don't see this as much of a problem as I plan to use my dremel to reduce the case in that area to sort the problem.
I believe the case is made by pdair as mine was packaged quite nicely in a pdair box etc. The screen is protected by a plastic screen which can be easily removed if you wished.
So I would recommend if you have had this type of hard case in the past get this one, as you cannot beat it due to it not really increasing the bulk of the device and allowing you to attach it to your belt if you so wish.

Hi,
Been using the PDair vertical flip case for a week now.
Its okay but to be honest it is a pain to use when someone calls you.
I have now ordered a Boxwave case which has the buttons exposed and a horizontal flip which covers the screen only.
Will post some pics when it crosses the Atlantic.
Regards

hello,
@spangelsaregreat
Thanks for the hint this case looks very promising. I'm also looking for an appropriate flip case and the Piel Frama was the only one fitting my needs...but 50 € is a bit too much in my opinion. I'm impatiently looking foreward to your review.
...bye DonQ

No probs, will keep you updated.
Regards

Sorry to mess with the topic, but my question is do you really need the case for this phone/pda ? Its so small, compared to all others pocketpc... The only thing I use in mine is screen protector... besides that I just wear mine in the pocket.
I think the case for this tiny pda (comparing to the competitions) just add to the bulkiness factor....

Hi,
From a personal point of view I don't really trust only a screen protector for the touch screen. I like to know when it is in my pocket it has some extra protection.
Also over the last couple of years (JAM then JAMin) I have dropped my Pocket PCs and the leather cases have done a good job of keeping them dent free.
You pays your money.......
Regards

hi Spanglesaregreat,
I am currently using a taiwan make Silicon cover for my P3300, and it is Anti-Dust coated, and it doesnot attract dust at all, and is nice and smooth, thou the finish could be better. Now finally, Boxwave have started making the Silicon Cases and theirs should be of much finer finish quality. suggest u give it a try.
I am quiet impressed with the flipcase that u have ordered, but the only thing for me is that i dont want anything to cover the screen, so can the screen covering portion be removed off for good from the case???
Also, when the screen protection flap is closed down to cover the screen, is the speakerphone on the top open to hear the caller? or do i have to open the flap everytime i want to use the device for phone purpose?
thanks!

Krusell Case for Orbit
hi, i have been searching for a case and i have found that KRUSELL case's for the orbit www.krusell.se. But some online stores are pre-order booking. please before i buy this case.
What do all my fellow developers think
thanks for the input

bought silicone case for orbit its great very plsd
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/AccessoriesShopHK
excellent delivery time 3days to uk very pleased with the item hope it helps u guys

I've got a birthday coming soon, so I'm dropping hints to the other half about the Piel Frama or the Krusell, both of which look secure and accessible.

Already posted this in the other thread before I realised this one is probably closer to the target:
Has anyone on their internet travels come across a vertical leather pouch/holster for the Artemis that has a belt clip?
Something like this:
http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wire...roductid=21740
Just want something that can be attached to a belt and the Artemis slid into and out of - not for use in the actual case.
Must be vertical and minimal size (ie designed for the Artemis and no larger).

Hi,
Finally received my BoxWave case today.
Overall it is a good case and pretty much what I expected. I like the back in that it is sculpted to the phone and not just a slab of thick leather. It would have been perfect if they had continued this at the front. Instead it is a thicker bit of leather that the back piece is stiched to. It adds a bit more bulk than is strickly necessary.
The top closure is velcro and does the job. Some may have preferred a magnetic closure here. The flip is functional and it is possible to pull it back behind the phone for putting the phone in cradle for the car.
I have posted some photos below for you to make your own minds up.
Front Closed

In summary it is a compact little case that minimises the bulk of the phone. A change to the front of the case could make it even slimmer if anyone from Boxwave is listening.

To me this is the best case in silicone and is Anti-Dust coated you have a choice of 5 colours

[Q] Leather Case with Belt Clip?

I have always used a Leather pouch with a belt clip (maybe I like the idea of a Batman utility belt...). I have found some really nice pocket cases but I have looked ever ware and can't find one that is basically a belt pouch.
I don't like a case around my phone because I think the Raw phone looks much sexier. I kinda feel like there is hundreds of thousands of dollars spent to make new phone the sexiest looking technology out there then we put them in a rubber/leather shell... just my view. The main reason is I keep my Wallet in one front pocket and my keys in the other...

Seeing as there has not even been one reply I'm starting to think there is none...

something like this? http://www.senacases.com/samsung-cases/galaxy-s-2/classic-flip/
Check the pics from the back

You could look for similar sized phones, iPhone 4 maybe?
I only have my phone here, so I can't really search for you, but I guess it's worth a try.
Good luck!

I have this one : http://pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_10000000_11001206&products_id=32475

How would one attach this to a belt. If it's not to tight you might make two cuts in it and slip your belt in it. But it's not too practical, beautiful, or safe. I'd look for a HTC Sensation one, or an Atrix one perhaps.
EDIT
Searching for galaxy s2 belt case gave me this and a few other hits.

Thanks, at least I know know there are some out there!
During the mean time I have been using a cheep rubber skin, and I have been finding that phone feels better in the hand if it's in a skin. So now I might be looking for a case that will fit the phone wile it's in a skin... might have to do some local shopping for that... Or something like the one "Flowlance" linked might work for me too.

Got one! I walked to every store and booth in my local mall (did you know your can buy things in the real world not just online! I didn't...) and there was almost none then I found the Indian Cell Booth... (that is not the name. There only ever Pakistani people working there...) and they had 1 witch I think is suppose to be for a PDA but it was freaking huge! witch means it was a good fit...
And I can use this one with my Skin still on the phone! So now if I drop it when using it, I'm safe. and if I'm not using the belt clip (because who likes to ware pants at home...) I'm still safe for laying it around! Here are the pics..

It says "Ultra" on is so that has to mean it's kewl... right?
Rotating Clip Seems strong, time will tell...
Magnetic flap.

I got my Galaxy S2 a couple of days ago and had the same problem. Having punted around online for a while I grabbed the case that my Touch HD was in, the one that originally came with my Tytn, and voila, it fits.

I have not got this * PDAir * horizontal belt clip, but I have the same make that I bought for my much loved HTC HD2. The SGS2 fits fine in that pouch, so I don't know if I'll get the one specifically for the SGS2.
My 18 month old HD2 looks like it just came out of the shop.

How about this!
Got this holster from the mail a few days back, nice fit with my Zenus Monochrom Case, so should fit the S2 with a normal TPU/silicone case.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Cowhide-Leather-Case-Samsung-Galaxy-S2-i9100-Brown-/160563730751?pt=AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item256258193f#ht_1803wt_901
PS
The Zenus case quality isnt top notch, theres a hairline crack appearing less than a month of usage.

Son of a *****! Well Time did tell, I haven't even had my case for 5 days and the clip broke! Sat in a chair with arms and the plastic clip (witch I though would have trouble) snapped off because the phone hit the chair arm... I looked all over town for that stupid case! and it was the only one no returns...
I'll have to see if I can modify it with a better clip. Or become one of those people that carry there wallet in there back pocket...

You might like the "Krusell Orbit Flex for Samsung Galaxy S II".
Oddly, the company's web site does not post any pictures, which is really a shame because it's a great case. Google for pictures! In short:
1. Rotating belt clip, which is also removable. You can take it out and still keep the phone in the case (in order to fit a shirt pocket, for example). The fitting for the clip can take other accessories (from the manufacturer) - check it out.
2. Removable front flap, so you can have it in your belt with only the back cover in place. With "soft" magnetic clip.
3. Cut-outs in all applicable places.
I bought it before my S2 (!) and been using it ever since.

Cableguy
What a pleasant information to hear, i also love that brown cow case but the seller was answer me it can not fit if the s2 was fit it with other case
your picture would be great, thanks
sent from my 2.3.3|dxkg3 DJGalaxy S2

I just received this from Amazon for about $9.
It is for the Infuse, but it fits my SG2 with my Casemate Tough EASILY. It is a little bigger than I would like, but it meets my need well.

Hello
Does somebody know for a vertical leather case with a belt clip for s2 which would fit case-mate tough case?
I bought one similar to this one www.ebay.com/itm/VB4-Leather-Belt-P..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item3cb80c160c and it is just too small (phone with tough case goes inside but very tight and it is not possible to close it).
I was searching for infuse cases and found one that i like www.ebay.com/itm/Flip-Case-Samsung-...052944?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item25675ec0d0 . Would it fit S2 with tough case? Does somebody know if and where it's possibly to buy this in Europe?
Would you suggest any other leather belt case?

The Noreve is By far the nicest Belt Case I've seen but it's not cheap.
http://www.noreve.com/langue/en/product/Samsung_GT-i9100_Galaxy_S_II_Tradition_leather_case.html
Get the case above with the metal clip below.
http://www.noreve.com/langue/en/product/Belt_clip_360_degree_rotation_-_Metal.html
Pretty sure I'm getting one for mine. Just thinking about dropping nearly $100 on a case a bit first..

Try the Verizon Droid x (or x2) holster. That works very well with the SGS2. It may have some wiggle room to fit it with a case as well.

HTC One Genuine Leather Case

There are so many cases made of different material,such as we all know TPU,hard PC material,PU leather, and they of a comparative better price than the genuine leather case, yet as the most classical genuine leather, if there's a need to have a high price genuine leather case for our loved M7 mate...?

Whilst I can't make head nor tail of what your post actually says, I'm guessing you're looking for a leather slip pouch for the One?
If so, I would recommend waiting for Beyza to come out with their Slim Zero range for it. I have had this case for the One X for about 6 months and it's a beast. No other case has lasted so long. And in fact I'm using it on the One now until they bring out a proper fitting case
Martin

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271178805...WAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_650wt_689
This is what I'm considering

I am also looking for a genuine leather pouch for the One.
Just a heads up I bought the PU Leather version of that ebay link one and although it says it fits the One its not a perfect fit really, the top sticks out by about 5-6mm. Maybe the genuine leather in that one will stretch more. I've gone back to the S560 pouch I have for my One X which isn't a great fit either, too wide and loose.
What I really would like would be a genuine leather case like the meteor case that I have for the Sensation. It was a great quality pouch, soft leather, didn't add any bulk at all just like a tightly wrapped skin around the phone to protect it.

Oh and the pull tab (which I don't like anyway) is made more annoying by the fact that its not elastic like the HTC one its just like thin seatbelt material, and second theres no magnet like the HTC one so the pull tab doesn't stick to the case it just flaps about. I only paid £2.90 so its not bothering me but its a simple case of you get what you pay for.
Dan

Cheers for the advice about the PU case. That ticks it off the list then. I'll post if I come across anything better looking

I found (and ordered) this leather case from an Etsy seller. It is expensive ($80) but I am hoping it's worth it. There are hidden magnets that keep the flap closed.
The seller's page is at: http://www.etsy.com/listing/125790273/ha41-hand-stitched-handmade-personalized
Apparently it takes 5-7 days to make and then ?? days to arrive from China. Hopefully it will be here close to delivery of my One! I'll post my comments on it after I get my hands on it...

The seller's page is at: http://www.etsy.com/listing/125790273/ha41-hand-stitched-handmade-personalized
Apparently it takes 5-7 days to make and then ?? days to arrive from China. Hopefully it will be here close to delivery of my One! I'll post my comments on it after I get my hands on it...

No offense but I don't trust to a chinese seller and give 80 bucks for a case like that. Most likely it is not even genuine leather.

I'd search "hard graft phone cases". They have this stunning leather bi-folding case/wallet for the iphone 5. However the size is generous enough that it may accommodate the m7. They're based in the uk I believe. I actually just emailed them asking if the m7 would fit into this, or any of their cases, or even if they were planning on making cases for this phone. I'm considering getting one for myself, and I figured I'd inquire first.. as it'd be an expensive mistake.

who knows HOCO ? some guys mentioned their case and in my impression that all the hoco case are made of genuine leather,and esp. their name is something classic and vintage style such as duke series case,baron series etc, so far they launched a leather flip case and going to try it as my M7 comes if no one give them bad scores...

Those look very nice! Please post if/when you find out if the M7 will fit!

Genuine leather pouch is looks great. i found some of the leather pouches, but unfortunately they don't seems beautiful.

Just go on the PDAir site, they have several leather HTC one cases

I exchanged e-mails with someone at Hard Graft http://www.hardgraft.com/ about a leather case that would fit the HTC One, and he said:
Thanks for your message, we've got something on the way that fits your phone.
We'll keep you updated.

Ya, some cases ain't cheap, but to each their own. I have purchased a dozen or more crummy cases over the years for $15 - $25 that are all in a landfill now. I also bought a pricey leather case for my iPad a few years ago and it's still in use, looking better than ever.

I'm looking for a genuine crocodile or alligator skin case for the HTC One.
One in blood red and one in black.

Looks good, and cheap too for a handmade genuine leater case.
Hopefully someone has already some photos of it...

I'm currently look around.. Seems like all the cases so far are just silicone and crap. I had a friend pick me an X up in Shanghai and they got me their "case" but when they sent me a picture I was less than amused.. It basically is just a leather back and no protection on the sides or front. Cost 99 RMB to.

I found an official one on Ebay-->
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/100-Officia...77f5f0da:m:mme4c0P508JEIma1PM7ZAxA:rk:37:pf:0
And I also found a decent quality wallet case as well. -->

I have ordered different on Aliexpress:

I will then see which one is best for me

This belongs in the accessories forum. Will have moved. Thanks

Most cases I found didn't have enough raised edges to protect the screen... I found one from eBay which seems to protect well and cheap. It should be a good temporary case until better ones come out.

Giztop has some cool ones too. I ordered an Alcantara case for the Mate 20 x. Will let you know if its any good when it arrives.

Some nice ones here [emoji1303]

The aluminum cases look sturdy but I feel they will scratch the phone? Anyone have this experience?

"enough raised edges to protect the screen"
That is all I care about. If you find another good quality case that has this feature, please quote me and post a link to it.
I may care about a case that goes along with the pen.

These are the best cases that I have found for the Huawei Mate 20x.

It seems to provide good protection... but not sure about the front face.

Have had my AL00 since December and have a non- official smart case. It wakes the phone when you open the case and puts the phone to sleep when closed but when I get a notification it does not show any icons in the window.
I see you mention 'and on display function without opening the cover'. I think this is what I've seen on the net (see attached image) which is called 'smart touch view'. But I'm not sure how it works or if it's just a misleading statement. Would appreciate comments regarding your experience of this feature?

It works with open/close the display when u open and close the cover, then u can se who is calling to.
I can take the phone without opening the cover and end the call to.
