I used the word destroy to illicit a certain response. Congrats to you sir a the winner. I do really think they look terrible and would rather have my new slim beautiful phone break than have those cases on it.

very nice

Work Case

Hi
Im working within Construction and my brand new s3 is screaming for protection.
I have been lookin around for some "Work" cases. I have found otterbox defender, but its just pre order and i need a good case right now.
Is there something like otterbox defender for about the same price or lower that is better?
Are There any BIG pouches like krussel has that fits the s3 AND a normal case (NOT work case) ?
Regards
Hooterz

You can purchase the Defender from Amazon, now. The commuter is also a good option.
Maybe this too:

Thanks very much for your answer!
What is the diffrence between defender and commuter? Have you ever had an otterbox shell or case yourself? would you recommend it?
Thanks

If you're from the US do check out www.pure-gear.com too. Some of their cases look like they can survive through a Nuclear Apocalypse.

I'm not from the US so I can't order one. But they DO look mighty interesting.

That seems like the kind of case that I want to get for mine. Have you noticed if the screen protector gets dust or dirt under it? I know all of my otterbox cases had a bad problem of that.

It comes with a user replacable screen protector i didnt like it so much so i just have my ivisor matte screen protector on now. If you go to ebay i think there like $35 shipped. Theres 4 more other colors to choose from.

Check out the Trident Kraken. That thing looks serious. I'm a firefighter and it's even a little to much for me. I'm very careful with my phones and I can't stand adding bulk to such a nice looking phone.

The ballistic sg maxx is a nice case and the plastic screen cover fits much tighter to the screen than the otterbox. Still it will let dust in though and it makes the screen look like crap. I took mine off snd have an hd screen protector on it.
Also ordered a pure gear 260 case so well see how that one is.

I'm in the UK myself but would be interested in the Pure Gear cases. I sent them an e-mail to see if they have any resellers or distributors in the UK or anywhere else in Europe but as yet no reply.

check ebay for pure gear there is one of the 360s on there now, i think i am gonna pick one up

And it's only 30 on eBay too and ships outside us

Thin cases that include a lip for the screen

Does anyone have any suggestions? UK availability would be good.

Surprised to see that many people are ok with branding on their cases.
Why TF would you want to advertise some else's products?

Agreed. and for me personally, I would look for a case that is clear (Hard case so it won't yellow) or a case that is a least somewhat transparent so you can still see the great design of the htc one.

Kickstand case?

Has anyone found a good kickstand case yet?

Second seidio. I have it and it's fantastic. Power button is easy to reach and the volume buttons aren't covered. The biggest problem would be removing it the first few times. Once you've popped it on and off a few times it's very easy to remove.

Is the seidio covering the power button and blocking IR?

its pretty pricey the seidio. but love the design. wish it were cheaper to order and get shipped to Australia.

The otterbox's belt clip can be used as a stand. Tis what i do.

Agreed. Seidio Surface with kickstand is awesome. If you use a holster Seidio's are the best. The clip does not break, unlike others. Expensive, sadly.

Does anyone know whatever happened to that official HTC kickstand case they showed off with the One when it was unveiled; they showed the Double Dip case, the Double Dip Flip, that battery charger pack, the car dock, and this mystery case, which is the only one of those items that hasn't come out.

Went across the street to the Sprint store and found this for $29. Happy and very sleek.

You should check your phone for any scratches. That case is know for that.
To the OP,
Thanks for sharing. I'm going to pick up the commuter series for $25. Not as bulky.

Anyhow, in all my reading it seems the one with the stand is at fault (i.e. scratching the camera, etc). This one is too? News to me.

Hilarious.
Didn't see that exat thread I guess. I have 13 days to return it, so I am not worried one bit.
So, the Otterbox is the one to get? If not, can someone enlighten me as to what case is "scratch free" and perfect?? They all seem to suck (or are being dissected by dorks).

Ya I bought one of the HTC cases knowing it was an issue. Thought I could just be careful with it. Lasted one day. Couldn't stop thinking about it. All I could think about was my beautiful black one being scratched up everytime I moved. I took it back the next day and ordered a poetic atmosphere case.
On the subject of the otterbox, I used a commuter otterbox on my evo lte and was very pleased with it. I hate the bulky defender case but the commuter really doesn't add much to it. Just an fyi and sharing my personal opinion.

How did you "pop out" the built in protector? I thought it was glued?
I'm using a defender, but have ordered the Tuff as Nuts model. I think I might go ahead and get rid of the external protector, since dust gets under there.
I plan to go commando, or nearly that, depending on if a thin TPU case will work with the "nuts" model - they are really stiff when new. I had one a while back for a different phone - great protection.

Thanks for the tip. I just removed mine. I don't know what they were thinking with that piece of plastic. It only served to trap lint and dust between the plastic and the screen.

Yeah, I really liked it back on my HD2, but it does need to be sealed all around to be effective. The odd thing is that they got it right on the top, but not the bottom.

If u r gunna pop the screen protector out why not just go with the commuter. It's less bulky, just sayin.
Edit: maybe u have to have the belt clip?

Has anyone tried to install a different screen protector on it? I want to remove my built in screen protector for the same reason of getting dust under. I still have the Zagg screen protector I got free from best buy but I don't really like the feel of it and the onion peel of it. I was thinking on getting a spigen screen protector, I wonder if the Glas slim protector from spigen will work with the defender? Let me know if anyone have tried this combination.
