[VIDEO] Droid X Argyle TPU Case Review

I made a video review this morning for the Droid X Argyle TPU Cases. I used a Droid 2 to record it, so the video quality isn't quite professional quality
For some reason on all the videos I've made on the Droid 2, the first 2-3 seconds have a high pitch whine in the audio. Anyone else had that problem?

Yes you can get them cheaper if your willing to wait a few weeks, but if you already have your phone that could be a costly mistake, as who knows how many times you might drop it the cheapest US seller I could find was selling them for $7.95 shipped.

i'll agree with that. get selling!
also since you do have them, couple of questions. are they a soft material like those silicone cases? do they have a rubberized finish so that they don't slide much?

They are softer then a crystal poly carb case, but harder then the rubber/silicone case. These have a smooth finish, so they don't grip like the silicone cases do -- which personally i like, since its easier to take out of my pocket. but others might like more grip. the main advantages i see to TPU over silicone is they don't sag like the silicone ones do, they don't pick up lint, and they are easy to clean.

Just wanted to let anyone who is thinking of purchasing these cases. Just got mines delivered, first off perfect fit and every hole cut out perfect ( headset,mics,speakers) its thin ( it feels as if It was naked to me ) love the texture and feel of it ) Fast delivery and Honest seller. By the way I will be ordering a blue one on monday . Thanks again for selling these cases ..

Glad to hear it! I love my TPU case. The design is so simple compared to cases I've used in the past (Speck CandyShell, SwitchEasy Capsule Rebel, etc). Seems to provide almost as much protection with 1/2 the bulk! Considering how big these phones are, slim cases are a must in my opinion.

yeah! i just got mine in!! i am very pleased with the cases! they have a nice grip but smooth enough to slide in and out of my jeans/dress pant pockets with NO LINT! thanks for the extremely fast shipping!
i have some pics of my new droid x w/case

awesome! 2 satisfied customers
Which do you like better, the clear or the smoke? I seem to be selling considerably more of the smoke then any other color. Not much demand for Red or Orange. Maybe come Halloween the Orange will be selling like hotcakes!

haha!! i am leaning toward the smoke! it's a nice dark color that matches the droid very nicely! and the argyle print is subtle on the smoke. I do like the clear though! its a nice change of pace. I can understand the low demand for orange haha. its a bold color! now all we need are some bold people!

I would totally buy an orange one if Verizon lets me upgrade (Clemson Tiger fan). My contract isn't up until next summer, but I got an early upgrade offer in the mail today on any smartphone. It's not showing up online, so I'll have to call tomorrow and find out if I'm really going to be eligible. The fine print on the offer says I must be 180 days into a contract, which I am. Will let you know how it goes!

I was thinking of marketing some of the colors to different sports fans earlier today. i put up an eBay listing with the word "vikings" in the title for the purple case. I live in WI so I should be able to sell some Red to the Badger fans! good luck with early upgrade. sprint lets me upgrade every year since I'm a preferred customer (whatever that means). thats pretty awesome if you can upgrade after only 180 days! do you have multiple lines on your account or something?

We have four lines on our account. Three of the four lines were listed on the package as eligible, as long as they are upgraded by August 31st. I have never received an offer of this sort before the X.

well that would certainly make you a "preferred customer" in my book! i wonder if they are worried about people jumping ship for the iphone 4, and are offering early upgrades? although you'd have to be a fool to leave verizon and their droid x for at&t and the iphone in my opinion!

still haven't gotten mine. phone should be in monday. perhaps case will be in then too lol. if not then i may just have to order for you. need a second case anyway for my car mount.

Wow, my new shipment arrived super fast. Shipped from Honk Kong at 11:00pm at night 8/3 and is scheduled for delivery this morning 8/5! Man DHL is impressive. Apparently they clear packages through customs in the air, logistics at its finest!
So smoke is back in stock... or will be in the next hour.

Are these the same cases as DCMUGEN? If they are will you be carrying the screen protectors too? I had already ordered my case before I saw this post but if you are going to carry the screen protectors I will order them from you.

I've been considering ordering screen protectors and selling them as package deal, but i haven't yet. No, these are not the same as the DCMugen cases, those have 1 large cutout on the back, which many people have complained about (I get people emailing asking to verify that mine don't have one large cutout). The ones I have have 2 smaller cutouts, leaving less of the phone exposed. Thanks

I got the same thing in the mail a few days ago, and stopped at a nearby store Wednesday. After talking to the salesguy for a few minutes I realized I knew more about the phones than he did, and stopped asking questions and just told him I would buy the Droid X and to please order one for me... But yeah, my contract isn't supposed to be up until like early next fall, late summer, something like that, so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the notice in the mail! I have a Touch Pro2 right now, and I just hate it. It's my second WinMo phone, and the frequent performance problems just annoy the crap out of me (I'm running the stock 6.5 ROM just cause I'm too scared of bricking it), so I'm making the jump to Android.

I just got my DCMugen case and it does not have 1 large cutout on the back. It looks exactly like your case. I'm not trying to tear you down, because I would have ordered from you if I had seen this before I ordered from him.
DCMugen is cheaper (by about $4), but you will get your case much slower (took about 2 weeks to get mine from him).

SGP Cases

It looks like SGP has updated their site with Vibrant cases. Right now they only have the Silke silicone cases on the site and they are all listed as out of stock. At least we know they are coming.
After the company told me they didn't sell cases for the phone in the US, this is a pleasant surprise. I hope this means they will bring the TPU and Ultra Slider over as well.
http://www.sgpstore.com/index.php/cPath/23_29

Those cases looks nice but they are also pricey and most of all they are all "Temporarily Out of Stock" :b

Yeah, looks like all of the Vibrant products are placeholders like on the Samsung website.
The pricing is higher than the eBay stuff, but looks to be cheaper than that French site that's selling the SGP stuff for the i9000 that someone else posted about.

it is a bit expensive but it includes a screen protector.
I heard good things about the screen protectors.

I want the slider

These cases are very sleek and the colors are fairly vibrant (what a perfect match ). $20.00 + shipping isn't too bad for those cases, since they do come with the Screen protector as well. I might get one of those when it becomes available.

I just sent them an email inquiring about the availability of their slider cases so hopefully we'll see some of those as well

I'd be interested in hearing how they respond. When I emailed them they said they weren't going to sell the Galaxy S cases in the US....one week later they show up on the site.
If they don't plan to sell the sliders directly, there's always that French company selling them for a few bucks more - we'll see if any of the people who ordered one actually get them.

Nicest cases I've seen so far... wish i hadn't ordered a tmo silicon case

Yea, those cases do look nice. I just oredered a Vibrant off ebay. I was hoping to get this case! Can anyone link me to the French site? Cause it's been out of stock for sometime now on the SGP site.

Screen Protectors - The good and the not so good

If you have purchased Screen Protectors off Ebay (or anywhere), post a link, a pic, and whether you like them or not.
I bought:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280665594632
-They are ok, I've had better.
-They have the three step approach (take 1 cover off, stick it down, take 2nd cover off.)
-The holes for speaker and sensor don't line up properly. I'll take a pic at some point

After a few hours use I can safely say the above screen protectors are terrible. you just have to run your fingernail across them and they scratch. I will be asking for a refund for sure.

The Savvies Screen protectors (ebay - 180660459805) are also terrible. The cuts for the home button, speaker and front camera dont match up.

i go one of these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/6-x-LCD-SCREEN-PROTECTOR-SAMSUNG-I9100-GALAXY-S-II-/270726135062?pt=UK_MobilePhones_MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item3f0888fd16
Seems pritty good apart from the camera hole is slightly off. Waxed it as well as it wasnt very slippy. No scratches and you can hardly tell its there apart from the 1 bubble

Stay away from the savvy one. It's a ****ty screen protector ! does not fit at all !

The Vikuiti ones (both the ADQC27 & DQC160) ordered from DISAGU via Amazon, do not fit properly I'm afraid.
The ones I purchased were just a fraction too long and so would have to overlap the bezel slightly, which would be unsightly (air pocket) and not make for a particularly secure fit.
Here's hoping SGP decide to make their Oleophobic ones for the i9100...

Got the same and can confirm the front camera hole is off but seems to be fine for a cheap protector until something better comes out.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

anyone tried the xtremeguard screen protectors? Ive got one coming hopefully soon.

I have a Brando Ultra Clear here, but still waiting for my phone
Looks like the holes are in the proper place do, but can't judge exactly.

I bought this:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110676862121&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
bad fit on FFC, means the protector has to be angled to line up with the home button... even if it was straight, theres a good 1-2mm gap around the protector and tbh i don't think i'd bother unless the protector was flush to the end or at least 0.5mm or less gap...
I had a HTC branded protector on my Hero and it was a perfect fit... anyone know if Samsung do the same? or did for the SGS etc??

Fit is usually excellent with the SGP ones and then inclusion of a Camera lens protector is a nice addition.
However the Oleophobic qualities aren't especially obvious.
Another thing to note though --an email reply from SGP a couple of days ago indicated that they hadn't yet decided whether to offer an SGS2 accessories yet.
Assuming they do, given the popularity of this model, we may be in for a bit of a wait.

Very odd, as I receive the following from the SGPstore a few days ago.
I guess SGP and the SGPstore aren't joined at the hip.
"Thank you for contacting SGPstore.com Customer Service Department.
Hi, my name is Lynn from SGPstore.com.
We are still deciding whether we are going to have products for Samsung Galaxy S II.
Please stay tuned with us and check our website."
ExportPrive are a legit site, in so far as they will send out the goods.
However, I had a bad experience with them a few months ago where they sent me the incorrect leather SGS1 case.
3 months later, despite promises, they still hadn't refunded.
I had to contact my CC provider to claim the funds back in the end.

accessories in canada

Hey guys,
I got the tab at i/o and I've been waiting for months to get some accessories. Now it's finally available in Canada and I still can't seem to find any. The source has the book cover case for $65 but that's it. Does samsung sell them? I can't find any way to buy them from their site.
Maybe if best buy ever gets this thing in stock, they'll carry some accessories..
Thanks,
Sam

I haven't been able to find any either. I'm thinking I will prob buy online.

I haven't been able to find any accessories in Canada either. I ended up getting one of those slim TPU cases online through eBay, and a 10" netbook sleeve makes a great carry case I found

I think ebay is your best bet. I was forced to by the book case from the Source yesterday but didn't want to wait 2 weeks for it to be shipped from the UK.

I also bought the Samsung case from the source yesterday. At first I hesitated because it was so expenice, $73 with tax. But I'm glad I got it, as I really like the case. It was the thinnest case I've ever owned, after using many for my ipad.
The material also seems very durable, and does NOT show any finger grease! So no cleaning is required. Also I love the "4 clip at the corners" design. It doesn't cover any basel and I can clip my GT "upside down", which I am currently doing to also better access to the buttons. (I will never use the rear camera so don't care that its covered).

expansys.ca
Has all you need. Cables, adaptors, docks and cases.

also, the source has the book case for $54 right now, i bought it. So thin and light it barely adds to the tablet.

Nooo, don't order from expansys! They list items in stock and once you proceed through their checkout the item then shows out of stock. Google their reviews and judge for yourself. I was going to buy my tablet from them. Their website said IN STOCK (more than 100) and as soon as I placed my order it showed out of stock. I cancelled my order then.

The samsung case is nice, but sometimes you need to clip it in upside down if you want to use the low angle position (where the flap fits in that groove). Quite a few apps that require landscape mode will not run upside down - so if you don't flip the tablet, your view is upside down. Using the camera is also a HUGE pain with this case. Really, this should be priced at $30, not at an overpriced $65. I still like the case and it's thinness is very nice.
I really want the usb connection kit now...

I hate the source. How can they not automatically adjust the price when the sale is not their own flyer!!! To make it worse, I realized that the sale is not for all stores. Depending on which store your select when you lookup the online flyer, that last page of the flyer may or may not have the $10 off section. Wired, huh?
Luckily, the store where I bought it from did have the sale. I did have to drive back there, and get them to look up their own flyer to give me the $10 refund. The saleperson had no idea what's going on. I wouldn't say she was particularly nice during the process.
The only other store in town that still have stock for the book case was NOT part of the sale. If I pick their store when looking up the online flyer, that bottom section disappeared from the flyer on p. 18.
Once again, I hate the source. Stupidest way of handling their own sale. The whole process felt like I'm getting their to price match a competitor's flyer.

Gumdrop Military Edition

I ordered one of these
http://www.gumdropcases.com/military-edition-samsung-galaxy-tab-rugged-case.html
about a week ago and was told "Shipping in two to three weeks".
Well, hallelujah, it shipped yesterday.
I will post a full review when it arrives.

i'm not sure how I could carry this around....

I have two kids, two dogs, a swimming pool with a concrete deck and I use my Tab on the treadmill and elliptical. I'll take all the protection I can get. My iPod is in an Otter case, and I can't count the number of times it's been dropped in the gym and the case has saved it.

Looks great. It will match my uniform but isn't it a little expensive?

I just bought one, too! My kid has a tendency to drop things!

Been using mines for the past month. Black on black was the one and only choice for me. Plus, the optional screen protector works better than I had expected.
Sent from my Cyanogen-filled G2x or my GTab 10.1 now "In Paris"

Well, this thing arrived earlier this week. I'm not happy, but before I get into a rant, let me see how Gumdrop deals with the issue. The issue is - I specifically bought the Military Edition for the microfilm dust filters and.....there're aren't any. I paid $10 more than the regular case, for a...regular case, but in green. Other than that, the case looks like it offers some serious protection for the Tab.
So far, their response has been underwhelming. The have offered a 10% refund. Well, I'm not the best at math, but if I have done this right...10% of $59.95 is $5.99. A regular non military case is $10 cheaper. I'm still getting the short end of the stick.
I've politely declined their offer and asked for a full refund, item to be shipped back at THEIR expense. Does this seem reasonable, as the item I received is not the item that I paid for?

Sounds reasonable to me. If you used PayPal or CC just dispute it if they say no.

OK, Kudos to Gumdrop for responding quickly and satifactorily. I didn't realize that the military case comes with a clear plastic shield for the camera lens which the regular case doesn't. So it's not the exact same case as the regular. This is why I was offered 10% instead of $10.
They've offered to send me a shipping label and I can return the item for a full refund. I really wanted the dust filters, so I might take them up on the offer.
Anyway, good customer service and the case itself is well designed and offers what appears to be significant protection (I'm not going to purposely drop it to find out though).

It would take the $5.99 they are offering and go buy some thin cloth filter material similar to the material or composition of some reusable shopping bags and cut some strips to cover the speaker holes, glue it to the inner edge pieces or just place it there and call it a day.

Just ordered one today....looking forward to it.
