Cases for the Ozone - Thoughts?

I've found a number of Sites selling cases for the Ozone (I assume they'd work on the other devices based on the Maple/Willow)

Does anyone have any experience with any of these vendors? Know the source? Or have any thoughts on the items?
Thanks.

IMHO i wouldnt buy a case just yet, unless its from ur service provider or from HTC itself.
in alot of cases and reports ive read they are using the Blackberry Curve cases with minimal NOTICEABLE modifications to make them Snap compatible, and well thats no bueno!

Talkie Tech Cases
I just got 2 cases from Talkie Tech and I can say they're made for the HTC Ozone. Definitely *not* a mod of another phone.
Price was $9.95(US) plus flat rate shipping ($4.95 I believe) and I got them in 2 days.
Very satisfied, they're a great product.

i just bought my case from t-mobile for 16 dollars at the most

i am using a dlo leather palm centro belt holder. fits like a glove and 10 bucks at best buy.

PDAir Cases
I've gotten PDAir aluminum cases for my last three HTC phones and they all fit great. Here's a link to the Dash 3G/Maple case.

I just bought this one on Ebay-
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400070510706&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:US:1123

I had a hard plastic case for about 2 weeks, took it off to pull battery and noticed pits from rocks/dirt that got under the case... Soft Skins = Win.
Had a silicone case for 3 weeks, easy to clean, no dirt, best buy.

I use the Ozone belt clip / holster available from VZW

Hard Plastic
I bought a hard plastic case, coated in rubber on the outside, for about $20 from verizon corp. store... It makes the phone a little easier to handle, without it I always felt I was going to drop it, def. a good choice for me, it snaps together well, and has a little pit where you need to insert the edge of a coin and pry it apart, not going to pull apart by accident. The thick design also protects the cam lens from scratches as well. I'd recommend something like this, by the way they even gave me my 22% work discount on the accessory, as well as on the monthly bill.

+1...I just got mine today and I love it....fits great!

Found a couple other websites, sell a lot more accessories besides just cases.

Will Ozone cases fit my Sprint Snap, or are there slight differences that wont allow snap cases to work?

Case Mate Barely There for Dash 3G
Here is one on Ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Case-Mate-Barel...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item19baaafcca
It comes in 5 colors, my choice is black.
This is the FINEST case for the Dash 3G, a little pricey but you get what you pay for. They go for about $17 on most websites. Form fitting case, protects the sides and corners and adds strength. Comes with a clear screen protector. Adds on a couple of millimeters to the size but you can find a leather case that will fit even with the Case Mate installed when you are on the go.
This case also removes easilly in case you want to change the battery or whatever.
I went quite a few cases before i found this one, and I love it. Forget about the cheap snap on cases they break, the expensive snap ons they wont come off without breaking, the aluminum cases block the signal, this is the case you want!

I´ve just buyed the black silicone case posted before, soon as I got it I´ll post some pics

I got 2 Ozone protective plastic/rubberized front case from handhelditems.com along with the mirror screen protector, along with fast USPS shipping - all for under $10 (USD)
The case fit together nicely & tightly, and made it nearly the same size as the classic Motorla Q series - all the factory slots, usb port, camera & side buttons are easily to use. It gives the phone the extra weight, touch & feel and even if it is dropped, should give it good amount of protection.
I then slide mine into one of those Motorola side pouch for extra margin of safety. At other things, I just put it in the pocket as it's so slim and away from keys, coins or items that can scratch.
I had the leather case with rotating belt clip from VZW for a while and that worked too, except the plastic over the screen sometimes do cause problem trying to read it outdoor, plus, dust gather underneath it.

I have a slightly used OEM Verizon Ozone holster if anybody wants to pony up $10.00 you can have it.

Accessories Suck

The accessories suck for this phone, like 2 crappy cases available. maybe 3.
anyone find anything descent?

I agree, this phone is largely being ignored by that accessory makers in favor of the hotter, sexier phones. Still, I managed to find this case on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003NY7CVU . Very well made and fits the phone perfectly. I did a slight mod on mine and cut a small rectangle out of the side so I can charge the phone without having to take it out of its case. Otherwise, have only tried one screen protector, which turned out to be junk.

bandroidx, I think I have most of the cases available on the market. The Amzer rubber cases are inexpensive (9.95) on Amazon. They are grippy and secure on the phone. The Otterbox Commuter is nice also and available at Amazon. It is a two piece design with a hard plastic exterior that wraps around a rubber inner liner. I also got a Speckcase from AT&T when I first got the phone. The case was an early production and lacked a cutout in the rear for the speaker. This has since been remedied. I didnt care for it as much because it is so secure around the phone that it is hard to get in and out to access battery. Hope this helps.

I got a nice rubber form fitting case with all the cutouts and a wide selection of colors on Amazon for $1.25+$2.95 shipping, as far as a screen cover, I haven't needed one with the gorilla glass it features.
amazon.com search for Cbus wireless, they ship quick too!

The only case we have at ATT Cor stores are the *speck cases. They look great and fit well but they cover the speakerphone so if you rely SP your out of luck.
I use an invisible shield case on mine. Works great and has definitely helped protect my phone and makes it easier to wipe down.

I got an otter box and love it and they're only like thirty three at amazon which isn't much more than the spec. The defender.
Sent from my MB520 using XDA App

i got the hard plastic cover case from ATT pretty suckish and i really dont use it at all, i only use the screen protector

It would be nice to see some sort of car dock for music/nav in the car. Im not a huge fan of cases because of the rubber-like outside already on the phone.

You tried googlin international online stores?

Otterbox
+1 for Otterbox, great case with good protection and fit

I just don't like how the proximity sensor is just open. Dust gets in like crazy.
Sent from my MB520 using XDA Premium App

given that its not high end phone its no surprise there few accessories are available at the moment.
i'd love an extended battery more than anything else. i'm a heavy user.

can anyone recommend a nice one? i'm not sure what to get.

I wiah we had better accessories

the used bravo i just got has a otter box commuter case on it, im really not imppressed with the fit, its big. on my friends evo 4g is big too.
so anyways im buying a couple of ebay rubber cases. if there are good, i will post the link and some pics when i get them

Having an idea to make my own car and home docks. Phone reacts to magnet around the usb port. Idea idea. Also I saw a dock at an AT&T store that looked like one for the bravo but one little detail, the usb would be backwards from our phone. Take it apart and just turn it around? Hmm.......

after 3 days ordered i got these cases, i got them from this seller http://myworld.ebay.com/shipmaster8/?_trksid=p4340.l2559
link to item
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230700814358#ht_888wt_1037
they are 5.75 for 2 free shipping, really good fit maybe just 1-2 mm off, doesnt effect anything, its real good for the price fast shipping. i wound say much better quality than the otter box commuter. beefier too, not very bulky
i also got these films, very good too

here are the pics

Here's some good accessories!
Of course everything is on eBay.
Desktop Charging Dock
Wall Dock + Extra BF5X Battery, Cheap! I would buy it just for the battery.
Search Results for the tons of cases now available + Screen protectors too. I really like the look of the Carbon Fiber case. Going on a shopping spree in February. Budgeted $800 for eBay stuff.

MOFI Case

I tried 3 or 4 different cases/pouches for my phone and have settled down with MOFI Pouch from Amazon, its the kangaroo series, costs 3 pounds but very good quality and looks expensive, I ordered black and brown. Good thing about this pouch is that it has got soft velvet type material inside that cleans the screen every time you pull it out. Search for the following term, cant post a link sorry.Hope this helps someone.

is the pouch just for the headphones (to store) or are the headphones connected to the phone in the pouch ?

Waiting for a black one, it thought it looked the best. Really like the idea of the phone getting cleaned every time it gets pulled out of the pouch. Using an Android OEM pouch in the meantime, which is not that bad either.

ehh
I picked up one of these MOFI kangeroo cases as well, but gave up on it after a day of use.
The inside lining does clean the screen most of the time, but the rest of the case is the issue. The cloth exterior is extremely...well, grippy, meaning when you try to pull out the case in your jeans pocket, the pocket lining gets dragged out with the case. Its also too furry for me, because the last thing I want is to be sweating all over my case when summer hits in a month's time.
I'd say that this case is great for those who keep their phone in a briefcase/handbag/backpack etc, but the useability drops significantly if you are the type to put it in the front pocket of your jeans.

Anyone tried one of these leather case from mofi? seems decent and the seller said it fits well with the phone.
The OEM android pouch is nice too but it takes ages to ship to the UK.

Yeah, I have both of the Mofi cases and IMO the Kangaroo offers more protection than the Lux. The Lux is very thin and flimsy but I prefer it's look and feel so I use that one. In regards to the fit it hangs out the top of the pouch by about 1-2mm whilst the Kangaroo encases it completely.
I got this "Advanced Mofi Leather Galaxy S2 SII i9100 Case Pouch UK" it's the same as the Lux but a different design.

Hey thanks for sharing your experience=)
pity that the Lux one doesn't cover up to the top.. really like the look of it but not sure if the quality is good enough to last for months.

Hi guys
I use the official gs2 case, it does leave the top and bottom exposed but I also have the HTCHD7 leather pouch and combine nicely together ;-)

I received my Official Samsung Case today, the vent one, and with it on it just fits inside the Kangaroo but doesn't fit the Lux or Advanced pouch. I just thought I would post in case anyone was thinking of pairing the two.
Regards,
Chris

Someone on another forum said that the Mofi cases made them feel sick because of the feel of the fabric.

WTF???
I'm using the Mofi case I used with my SGS, about 1mm of the phone sticks out. I don't like the Kangaroo ones so if I can find the regular Mofi for the SGS II I'll probably buy it.
edit: Found one and ordered it.

Apparently it's made of some material that feels wierd in the hand or something.

Well I'm holding the one for the SGS and it doesn't feel weird. Maybe the person has hairy palms or something.

I got mine today the kangaroo series. It does feel weird in a way. The fur seems like it will get dirty with all the dust around where I live. Before that I was using the stock Sony Xperia ARC stock pouch which the SGS2 fits nicely in.
I didn't know that 1-2 mm of the SGS2 sticks out of the Lux leather, shame I already ordered it. but gotta say that the kangaroo series is nice despite that it will be a dust/dirt magnet due to its fur.

i want to buy a kangaroo pouch, but i live in chile.. and its very expensive, who can send me one please?? ill pay u, but to get it in my home from amazon ill have to pay like $40

I too own both Mofi pouches, but I whilst I agree the Lux version looks better, I prefer and use the Kangeroo pouch on a daily basis! I feared from the pic on ebay that the Lux pouch may not fully cover the phone and that is the case: somewhat defeating the object of having a pouch imho.
Also of note is that I didn't really want the extra (kangeroo) pouch for headphones or whatever, and some on ebay look like they don't have it, which is what I ordered. Sadly when my pouch arrived it was of the kangeroo style. Whilst I don't as yet use the pouch for any accessories or anything, I can confirm it doesn't really add any bulk, and if anything adds extra cushioning and offers more peace of mind in the event of a drop!
As a general note I just want to say I prefer to use pouches for general protection on mobiles because why would you want to spoil the lovely thinness of the SGS2 with a bulky gel case? Yes, it doesn't protect against a drop whilst in use, but I have insurance!
The Mofi Kangaroo pouch get's my vote!

just ordered from the amazon.ca to muy courrier on usa to get it to chile... it will be little expensive, but i like it

Is it possible to put earphones into that case? or is it dangerous for the phone/not enough space?
Do you mind taking some real pics of it? cause really the ebay pics seem so fake.

Seidio red active case with kickstand and holster for $32, free shipping

Bought this case from amazon (see: "Seidio BD2-HK3SSGS3K-GR ACTIVE Case with Metal Kickstand and Holster Combo for Samsung Galaxy S III - Combo Pack - Retail Packaging - Garnet Red", product number B008FYFUJE, shipped and sold by amazon)...
I think this case with holster are normally $45+ elsewhere, so I thought I'd share (to get my post count up so I can participate in the dev forum and post links in the future).
The case feels great in your hands and the free holster is very solid.
Cheers,
etc6849

How much is shipping on the $16.90 case? I'm not sure how long the kickstand design will last as it's plastic... You may be better off spending the extra $10 for a case with a spring loaded, magnetic all metal mechanism.

Seidio makes awesome products. Definitely recommend.

I like mine a lot. The carnet red looks much better in person than on amazon (which is probably why it was $32 and the other colors were $49?!?!). The camel camel camel site (amazon price tracker) shows this is the lowest price the case has ever been... It's been as high as $50.97, and I must say it does feel like a $50 case.

I wanted one of these in blue but they don't seem to stock them in the uk. only ones I can find here are black. also worried about the kickstand when taking it out of my pocket.

The kickstand is held in place my a pretty strong magnet. It's a nice kickstand too as it has some width to stabilize the phone.

cool. is it slippy in the hand? looks quite shiny.

Not really slippery. The red satin sheen has a strange rubbery feel though, but it is also hard plastic... The phone is easy to hold with the case on.
The black rubber is a very good grade of silicone. You can easily push the buttons with it on.

i have used seidio all the way back to my evo 4g....i currently have the convert combo with the convert clip plus the active clip so with convert protection off...i just through it in the active case and hit the road... it covers every hole plus the flash and camera (which is a flap easy to open) speaker stays open..check it out..i highly recommend for the s3! cheers

thanks. ordered a black one seeing as it's either black or white in the uk without waiting for 3 weeks!

On the US end, I have bought several items from Amazon's UK site as some of the blu-ray sets are many times cheaper there and are region free. The items arrive quickly, sometimes in less than a week! The last box set I ordered from Amazon UK came from Amazon France, and that delayed things some.

What case are you guys looking at for your arriving GN2?

I thought i'd ask the AT&T folks, the international forum is too large and impersonal.
Im looking at this one for myself: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nillkin-Mat...841&pid=100011&prg=1005&rk=1&sd=140855149689&

I got that one in white. Waiting on the Marble White version to be available for AT&T.

The ONE thing nice about not having the phone in hands yet is it has given me time to get some goodies on order with cheap shipping. I have four cases headed my way (yes idle hands). As you will see from my selections, I like cases that are TPU or similar for absorbing shock. I don't like very bulky cases.
Yello TPU from Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009S40MQG/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00
Gray X-line that seems to be everywhere on the web
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gray-X-Line...168197?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2a24a129c5
Then the Flexshield cases. I think one of these will be my everyday case. I couldn't decide between transparent or black so I ordered both. They come from mobilefun.com in the UK and since I had so much time to wait (November 9th or so) I used the cheap $5 shipping and it should be here by then.

I got that nilikin case (I have a tmob with att sim). Its even more slippery than the phone itself which I don't like. It looks good though.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app

I was going to get the Nilikin case but decide to get this in black instead.
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=110960786397&index=0&nav=SEARCH&nid=19068194779

Still haven't decided if I am getting the Note yet, I have SGS3 and its great, with a nice strong seido case (extended battery active) it isn't too big. I feel like having a big case on the note will be too much. I'm in the army and the SGS3 barely fits in my ankle pockets now, Only option for the Note would be in my cargo pockets and it might break in there...

i am looking into the Nilikin case atleast until there is an otterbox commuter for the note 2

Case I ordered
This is the case I ordered from Korea.
1) some sort of a metallic material bumper case (black)
2) some sort of a metallic material battery cover (black)
and its going to be going on the Titanium Grey colored version of the note 2
by the way the second picture is the metal battery cover by itself.

I got this clear hard shell case at Amazon for $10.99.

Trident. Just have to baby it for a month or so. :good:

Ive got the Nilikin cases in white and black. Not a fan of the texture. But it was the only thing available that was decent at the time. Im waiting for the Elago slim cases to come out which i have on my original Note.

I just ordered this case of ebay, not bad for the price and it looks half decent. I will post pictures once i get it and the phone(still waiting for rogers to ship)
edit: search the popular bidding sight for " Samsung Galaxy Note2 II N7100 2in1 Black TPU Metallic Red Hybrid Case+Screen"

hey guys i got a quick question im currently married to my skyrocket...but im leaving her for this beautful note 2. something i came across that was rather annoying with the skyrocket when it came to cases is that the phone style changed based on the carriers. e.g the speaker orientation on the sgs2 hercules vs the sgs2 skyrocket where different. even tho they are the same phone specs wise. is this the same here since all the cases linked here are for the n7100 and our phones are the n7137m and n7147m or something to that effect thanks for your replies in advance

The note 2 as far as dimensions go are the same across all models. So all cases will work

i also bought the ZAGG body shield

Boxwave case with the integrated stand. I have the black one on my current Note and it works great. The stand isn't super strong (can't expect it to be on a slim plastic case) but it's built well and holds the phone well also.
The case isn't available yet so keeping an eye out.
