I noticed that as well. I believe that is common in Otterboxes due to the two part internal design. Personally, I don't feel like it sounds loud enough to be a problem.

Slimmest Case

I love the vibrant cause of it's slimness. but im not sure which is slimmer? the Case mate Barely There cases? or the ones from ebay that look similar? or the SGP ones?
I got this one off ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...547263&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_6529wt_911
Pretty slim if you ask
I'm pretty sure Barely There Cases are the slimmest ones... hence the name lol

does it cover the phone well enough to eliminate the problem of the "death grip"
Here is my review of a case similar to the Case Mate Barely There, except it's only $4.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752079
Definitely not as stylish as the mesh case, but I'm more into the incognito look.
yeah, that's the one i ordered too. guess i'll be using that for a while. till the SGP store has theirs out and others have reviewed it. also for the casemate i'll wait for a review lol.

"Death grip"? I can hug my phone to death and it will choke from me crushing it before not making a call.

Only iphone 4 has that problem and Apple claims that all smartphones do. LOL.
I get it only at my house and that's because I only have 2-3 bars here. When I'm in town I have no problems and can't reproduce the problem so its only when the signal is already weak.

Video Review: Otterbox Commuter for HTC One X

Hey guys,
I got my hands on the Commuter series case from Otterbox, for the One X. I'm sure most of you have seen or own a variant of this case. It is a very popular style, composed of two parts, a plastic shell that wraps around a TPU membrane. This model fits particularly well, but not too tight, which I love. It offers fantastic protection, although it is a bit pricey.
Check out the full review below:
Great review! Hope Trident, Seidio and Ballistics would send u their case for review...

No prob, good enough you doing reviews for HOX, hopefully HTC kind enough to give you a free HOX for review purposes

bought one for my HOX+ but the top part didn't fit well. it seems it was not "clipping"the upper half properly.

Suggest Of A Case

Hellow everyone,
I am really searching to find something good to protect my Htc One but in the same time to not make it double or triple of it;s original size.
I was seeing the Incipio Products Like Feather, Frequency And Carbon Fiber , also the Htc One Original Cases .Plus would be nice to buy these alluminiun cases??? What you would suggest me to buy. By the way along with the case i am planning to buy a screen protector like the Mime Ghost Glass for Htc one.
Your Opinions would be very helpfull.
I bought this case: http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-FlipBo...qid=1377379829&sr=8-3&keywords=htc+one+poetic
It's slim and looks good. Doesn't provide a crazy amount of protection but it's enough for me to not worry about it in my pocket or setting it down anywhere, and I like the flipbook style. You can also still use a screen protector with it.

funny, on this link, with the phone in the case, it looks like there are cut-outs for the camera (and the noise cancellation mic), but there is on picture of the entire case without the phone in it, and there appears to be no cutouts for the camera. I would imagine that there ARE cutouts for the camera, no?

Yes, there are two cutouts on the back: one for the camera/flash and another for the mic. You're right though, the pics are misleading. I had seen this case in the wild before I bought it so I knew what I was getting. Also for that price you can't really go wrong.

Well i was thinkinh the Incipio Dual Pro with Silicone...
Just tried a skin and bumper combo. Best compromise between protection and looks IMO. Nothing will top an otterbox for protection, but makes phone very bulky and it overheats too easily when using navigation.

this one I got a few weeks back, and it is the best case I could imagine for the One! Protection all around, wrapping over the edgres where the screen is. All buttons covered solid, and these covers help to push the Power/Vol buttoms. I can only say, I am totally happy with this case! A bit pricey, but worth every penny. Gives the One a real trendy look, and is available in different colours- I got the black/black one

[Q] Case that covers ports

Hey guys, I'm going to be traveling in a week and I wanted to grab a case that covers the ports just to be safe. I know otterbox usually has these types of cases but sadly they aren't making any for the N5. I looked through most cases on Amazon and all of them seemed to not cover the ports up. Has anyone come across one that does? Preferably under 30 dollars.

The Ballistic SG Maxx Case offers great protection and has port covers, I cant post links yet but you can check it out at the ballistic case website.

Thanks, I saw you said that it works with the TYLT charger. Any ideas if it would work with the nexus wireless charger, as well as hold with the magnets? I doubt it will since it seems to be a bit bulky but just wondering if you knew.

That's the only one I found when I originally searched for it, but it wasn't getting great reviews. Also, I'm not a huge fan of the built in screen protector.

The Armorbox port covers suck, for lack of a better term. The TPS plastic doesn't serve well as port covers simply because the material is a little too rigid.
The Ballistic SG Maxx case however uses a silicone setup for the port covers. Works very well.

I also like the Otterbox case, especially commuter series, high quality, good protection and not too bulk, too expensive.
I got Otterbox series for my HTC One X and Samsung GS3 for under $20/each.

There are no otterbox cases for the N5 though.
Maxboost case purchased. I don't use the hip holster but the case is great for $9.99
Black case does attract lint but besides that covers all ports but leaves holes for the mic and 2 holes for speakers.
Surprisingly doesn't add much bulk despite the pictures looking like it does. In short I'm very happy from a fairly demanding customer.
I am however waiting for a Trident Case as a higher quality one with maybe some color. This is a great cheap option for people who want a decent quality case until the heavy hitters come out. :good:

TPU bumper

Is there any TPU bumper for M8? I can only find hybrid cases, and I just want the bumper.

I believe this is what you're looking for? http://www.wirelessground.com/htc-one-m8-aluminum-metal-bumper-case-silver.html
From a quick look at it I think its just the bumper as you wanted. If it is then I might actually buy one myself, it sounds quite useful considering I literally just chipped the top edges of my phone... Wish I had this before my phone fell out of my pocket LOL.

Yes, it looks like this but this is aluminium, I'm looking for TPU.. like a hybrid case without plastic on the back. I don't know why is so hard to make that!

Oh my bad, I was caught up in the moment and excited to have found one at all. I completely forgot you wanted TPU.
Also on the one you found for $1 on eBay I would highly advise against buying that. I recently bought a phone case with the top of the phone made EXACTLY like that and it was the poorest quality I have ever encountered in a product. I can tell it is on this one too because it looks the same and has the same cut out design along with hang down effect.

Taking a closer look at it, yes.
I used the one on Amazon myself on my M7. But went to use the Spigen Slim Armor on my M8. Even though it adds some weight and let's become the M8 a little bit larger, it just blends in with it perfectly and looks as if it is in fact a part of it.
