I upgraded to the Otterbox Defender Series case for my XOOM. I got the Portfolio Case laying around back in the original box I had purchased it with (from best buy). I bought this case the day I got my XOOM knowing that I would upgrade once a better case had hit the market.
I am willing to sale this case and ship it for $15. just pm me and I'll let you know how to pay me through paypal.
I figured another XOOM owner needs a case...
any takers?
I know there's gotta be a XOOM out there that needs a case...
pm me for details...
How do you like the Defender?

Motorola Xoom Portfolio Case - Saved my Xoom
I want to share a quick story with you guys.
Yesterday I was on my 7th floor balcony playing Poker on my xoom, and smoking at the same time. I accidently dropped xoom, which landed on a patch of grass. While watching it flying down, I was already thinking, there goes $600.00 down the drain. While in mid air case closed it self and zoom landed flat. When went to pick it up, not one single scratch on it, and works perfect. $50.00 Folio Case saved my xoom.
I'm glad you didn't crack the touch screen glass.

MOD EDIT: No advertising
bought the portfolio case and returned it w/in 2 days, upgraded to the otterbox ( i think they only have one xoom case) and couldn't be happier, my otterbox stand/outer cover actually cracked, i called otterbox and they sent me an entirely new case, even when i told them i only need my case/stand (1 of the 2 included pieces). props to otterbox

Super helpful.
I quite like the case. The basic design is sound just its execution could be better. There's definately a lot of variation in quality control though. The first one I bought at full price from authorised dealer the fit was very tight. I returned that when I found one for sale half the price elsewhere. Had to return that because the plastic clip was coming away from the vinyl.
On the third one now & this one seems to be much much better. The tab slides in easily but is snug so no chance of it accidently sliding out. The device just seems to fit in much better, but whereas the previous 2 had a cutout for the charging hole this one does not.

Are you talking about the Moto case? You has ones that had a cutout for the charge port?
I had to put one in mine with a hole punch. I had always given the moto case a 99 out of 100 for being such a great case but lacking that one super simple feature.

Yes the oficial Moto portfolio case. The first two had a cutout for the charging port but the one I have now does not.

I really wish they'd get a case that lets you access the Micro USB slot on our device. Using a wireless mouse, BT keyboard, and HD Dock to the TV, that would make me a content customer!
I've bought this case and I love it.
I've just taken delivery of a case-mate tough case for my One X after having them previously fitted to my Desire and Sensation. They have always fitted really well, felt good and grippy and offered good protection. This one however feels cheap and non grippy and after fighting with it for five minutes I gave in trying to get it to sit right on the phone. It just plain doesn’t fit! So I’ve printed out my return postage label from Amazon and will send it back for a refund. Very disappointing but the question is, what do I replace it with? Has anyone else had a similar experience with the tough case on their One X and are there any other good alternatives out there?
Bump: It can't just be me surely?
Amazing, so it would seem that i'm the only person in the world that thinks the tough case for the One x is rubish compared to previous versions! Either Amazon are selling cheap Chinese fake's or case-mate quality has gone down the pan...
I tried the tough and also the pop yesterday. Tough case was cheap and tacky but the pop was terrible. Once on the phone it is a nightmare to remove and you risk damaging your device. Review of the pop on WWW.mobilemaduk.Co.uk

I have the same case and find it perfect to be honest…. Sure its not a fake? (if they even exist)
Got mine from a hight street store though, Amazon marketplace can have fakes on it.
Its snug fit, takes seconds to take off and put back on. The buttons work well and are covered well. The fit between the rubber and the hard shell is spot in, cant tell its two peices to be honest.

Thanks for the info Steve, i suspected it may have been a fake to be honest.
My previous tough cases fitted really well as you say, this one was really poor.
One question for you, both my previous ones had a date wheel molded in to the silicone and the outer shell, this one didn't. Does yours?
There are a few threads and reviews about casemate tough in the accessories section.
You might want to have a look there.

No date wheel on either… but has CaseMate on the inside of the silicone (bit that touches the phone)

Got a casemate from carphone warehouse when I bought my one x. It was a struggle to fit without breaking the device through pressure. Once it was on I found the buttons almost unusable, they didn't seem to line up correctly with the actual phone buttons. Eventually took it off which also nearly broke my device. Worst. Case. Ever.
Best case I've ever had was an otterbox for my desire hd
TL;DR: Otterbox>Casemate
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Thanks for the replies guys, I’d like to try the otterbox but they aren’t available yet in the UK.
Hopefully won't be long.
Just to say, I've got the aforementioned case - it seems to fit my One X cleanly enough.
Mine came from Carphone Warehouse though, not online.
Have you considerd buying the Ballistic SG case? im using it and it just PERFECT. fits my global one x perfectly and its really easy to remove it from your pocket (i had casemate before and it was just terrible).
i bought the at&t version and it fits well to my global one!
I bought my tough case from carphone warehouse to, and it doesn't feel like a normal tough case! The silicone is cheap plus the case feels slippery not the usual high quality I expect from casemate! I had the tough case on my desire and desire hd and galaxy s2 so I know how it should feel!
I have noticed there seems to be 2 different tough cases for the hox, if you look on you tube casemate has a video of it which is the case I have (square cut out for headphone jack) but all other reviews for this case on you tube by others shows a tough case with a different headphone jack cut out and a larger cutout for the speaker on the back of the phone! On my case the writing above the speaker is not visible once the case is on but on the other case you can just see the bottom of the writing at the top of the speaker cutout! Anyone else noticed this? It would be interesting to get feedback!

Just to update you on this, I’ve been to both carphone warehouse and the O2 shop locally and looked at all the tough cases they had in for the One X. None of them had any date stamping and none of them felt as good as my previous tough cases. Then i had a look at a tough case for a SGS3 and it was both date stamped and of nice quality as i would expect. So what's going on here, have CM deliberately made the One X case less good or are they all fakes?
I’ve just been looking at the Ballistic SG case now and that looks like it might be my next case, on Amazon though there’s a 1 to 3 month delivery time!

You could assist me better on this open forum for the benefit of all potential customers. Can you please confirm whether or not all your tough cases should have a date stamp moulded in to them? After further investigation I now have three friends who have a tough case fitted to their Sensations and they all came from Amazon and none of them have the date stamp that mine does. They all feel of inferior quality to mine as did my recent One X purchase.
Has your quality gone down hill or might they be fakes?
I and others await your reply with baited breath...
One week after emailing support as suggested by CaseMate and including a link to this thread, no reply...
Great customer service, i don't think.
i ordered one of these , as keeping the case away from your skin by a few millimeters cuts down the emissions by heaps

They're expensive, but Vaja has one small leather case out already, and I'm sure they'll design more with the relative similarity between carrier devices, and the number of buyers across the world.
The first one they've come up with is $70, which sounds really high, but I can tell you from experience that these things are inSANEly well-made. They're probably hand-stitched by one 85 year-old lady in Venezuela, but their cases are awesome.

I can't post URLs yet, but I got a leather carrying case on Amazon for about $6.
I got this one. I love it because vertical position is a must and also the clip can rotate. It does leave some black marks on the back of the phone but nothing is perfect
The $5 & $10 cases on ebay /amazon are not real leather.
I am also interested in some real leather options. A search showed "hoco" as an option, they look pretty slim too.

They're really well made, fit perfectly and you get a choice of leather, lining colour, closure system etc, I do look at other ones available but in the end I always end up getting their stuff

Seconded! I don't have one for my S3 (yet), but I've been considering the Grip or the Pouch they have on their site.
I've bought their cases for past phones and not only do they look great, but they're very durable. The price-point is a little painful, but well-worth it in my book.
Might as well ask this here. But do any of you guys (yea guys on this one) carry around a wallet case? I was gonna get a SGP Valentinus black for my SGS3 but I got to thinking, maybe it seems a little feminine. I wanted one cuz it would mean for me to not carry a wallet around. I wanted either the Valentinus or the Argos. What you guys think

You can use Capdase leather case. Maybe some of them got wallet design. But recently, they use a frame to hold the phone and neglect those wallet layer. Sigh........

I don't know how many of you guys are aware of UAG, but they make HANDS DOWN the best cases. I reached out to them a week or so ago and they said they have no plans on making a case for the Moto X. That needs to change. We all need to pester them on Facebook and through their website so they can see what kind of demand there is for a case for the Moto X, and I wish to enlist all of you to help me in my quest.

I sent them a shout out. I've been wanting a UAG for a long time, but no love for the GN. In the meantime I picked up a Trident Cyclops that I actually really dig. Picked one up off of eBay for 29.99. I had a Trident Kraken on the GN and enjoyed it. Cases are built well, and offer good phone protection.

Sooo... it looks like UAG is going to be making a case for the Moto X after all. They kinda said it without saying it here-
Hi Brad,
We are listening we are launching several new products and designs and are looking ahead. Thanks for reaching out and considering UAG as armor for your Moto X! It seems like a natural match.

I don't think we have anything to worry about. When you put their response in context with the email I sent them, it's a pretty surefire thing. I rocked the white on my iPhone 5 and on my HTC One, and I will certainly be rocking the white on my Moto X.
Here was my email to them-
I know I have asked you guys on Facebook if you were planning on making a case for the Moto X and you said no, but I was hoping you guys have taken note of the growing popularity of the phone and possibly reconsidered. I really think you guys will sell a lot of them, considering you make hands down the best cases on the market. Last time around I did a review of your case for the HTC One on xda developers (_MetalHead_) and it was met with an overwhelmingly positive response. Many people purchased the case after reading that review. I will gladly do another review of the Moto X case, should you decide to make one, and I guarantee we will get the same reaction. You guys make a wonderful product, you just need to expand your offerings to cover more devices. Lets start with the Moto X!

So. I was poking around on their site and I found their newest iPhone 5c case: http://www.urbanarmorgear.com/products/maverick
I do not doubt that there will be, at least, this version for the moto x. Since we have multiple colors, they will look for the most cost-effective way to make a matching color scheme for the case. The best option would be to make a clear one. Although I would most definitely choose white again, I will gladly settle if they only release a clear version.

God I hope that's not all they give us. I NEED a Navigator for my Moto X. I am not a fan at all of the clear one, it completely defeats the industrial aesthetic of their standard case.

Well I am coming from the GNex with extended battery plus Kraken case. That was a pretty bulky phone not gonna lie as you had a layer of TPE followed by the hard plastic. The Cyclops on my X still feels pretty awesome without ungodly bulk, It still is overall a rather thin phone, and I think it fits better in my hands as I have big hands.

I ended up buying a blue one and it came yesterday. It's a decent case but it does add a little too much bulk for my liking. I do like how it maintains a semi-thin profile but I don't like how wide it is. I'm probably going to use it while at work for now, but once the UAG case comes out then it'll probably get tossed in a drawer never to be seen again.

I know the feeling as I have 3 or 4 rugged GNex cases laying around trying to find the right one. I will definitely be trying out the UAG case whenever it hits the market. I just went with the Cyclops as I don't use Otterboxes, and that was about the only rugged case outside of Ballistic. My profession require that I have a rugged case and screen protector at all times.

I see where you're coming from, I'm mostly interested on buying a good tempered glass screen protector. That being said, the most I would pay is $40 US and a decent $10 case.
I like it!
I also like the looks of this case, but I have no experience with this brand. I'm a long time Otterbox user and have absolutely enjoyed peace of mind with a rugged or semi-rugged case on my smartphones in the past. I just ordered my N5 and I'm really looking forward to it as it will be my first Nexus devise but I knew that my accessory options would be limited for awhile. If a decent rugged case does hit the market I'll be all over it though. I tend to use my phones for three to four years so the investment of a high end case is well worth while in the long run. That being said...to each their own...some people are a lot more careful and don't need to worry about everyday drops and fumbles but I'm a frequent dropper.
If element does come out with a case I will probably buy the fake version for 25% of the price tbh haha.
I don't think you'll ever see a "high end" case like that for the nexus phones/tabets since there simply isn't enough demand for the phone/case. Meaning the manufacture(s) simply aren't interested.
For all the millions of accessories out there for the iphone/galaxy series, the nexus line only gets a few accessories in comparison. Couple of bumpers and a few cases of which a lot go by the same design. Nothing to "high profile" or anything.

yeah its sweet alright. for that type of money it should be. i guess i started this thread to see if anyone knew of anything coming out soon for the nexus 5. surely someone could make something around 40 euro that was really well made and looked good. maybe the nexus 5 will sell a lot better than the 4 and manufacturers will be interested.

This +1
Case is there to protect your phone. If you want to spend that much on a case just leave your phone unprotected. Buy a new one with the same money...
The Spigen Neo Hybrid Case and the Spigen Case Slim Armor are really high-end cases.
I've purchased them via Amazon together with the Spigen GLAStR Screen Protector and they look and feel much more high-grade than other cases like the Cruzerlite or the Ringke Fusion.
The Neo Hybrid fits extremely well and the screen protector is awesome.
It's much more smoother than the Gorilla Glass 3 and swiping and touching is just a dream.
Give them a shot if you search a high quality case.

Yep the hybrid case is great! It looks nice the power and volume buttons work flawlessly. My only gripe is the headphone hole. It won't work well for fat plugs like computer speaker plug for example. But since I don't use it that often it isn't too bad.

I've purchased "Pressy - The almighty button" and I think I can't use it with the Hybrid case.
I have the Neo and rate it as simply ok. It will keep the phone from getting scratched and doesn't look cheap and you have the feeling the phone may survive a drop. Or not. And yes, it is more slippery than the bare phone with a poor feel in hand. I also have the Seidio Dilex which is a little better looking and more likely to get your phone through a drop. That one has good feel in hand. There is still some hope that Casemate will come out with a tough case which I would buy in a heartbeat. Easily the best of any of the cases mentioned here all of which I've had in the past.
Spigen has the better looking cases out right now .I'm sure in time their will be more !!
