Taurus
Sweet armor
I found the power and volume buttons are improved to help people to press in sweet armor bumper, but taurus gives more alternative colours
Any suggestion???

I am using the Taurus Version, and Yellow. Love it.
The contour of the case and and design, fits like a GLOVE!!

Do these things actually protect well? I feel like the impact would be transferred to the device more so than a TPU/silicone case. Sure they look nice, but I don't feel like they are practical.

When I got it, it was installed by a friend of mine, the in between the case and phone, have a silicone cushion build on the case. The phone do budge or move at all.
I guess the silicone cushion is made for shock absorption.
The Taurus looks nice but damn if they make that sweet one in Gunmetal gray I'm getting it!

Got all sorts of Color!! Including GUN Metal!! Its worth it, I do not feel the extra Weight to it!!
Just want to know, is this taurus case can be fitted with SGP TOugh Case's Silicon Protector? Anyone ever try it?
aren't metal cases really bad for your phone? i heard it heats it up like no other.

Something like Taurus isnt a full case but a bumper.
The battery cover isnt covered by metal, so it wont heat at all.

I meant if Sweet Armor comes in Gunmetal lol! I know Tauras has gunmetal . thanks tho!
Anyone know where you can order the sweet armor one online? I can't seem to find it on google at all, might be using the wrong search codes though but still. I do like the gunmetal taurus one as well.
Also, how do the buttons feel on the taurus once applied?
Hey guys,
I was wondering with the case on, can you still take off the back cover? like sometimes the phone crashes and if you cant then it would suck !!
Looking to purchase a sweet armor one from Gmarket.
http://english.gmarket.co.kr/challenge/neo_goods/goods.asp?goodscode=216196087
but does this fit a international Samsung Galaxy S2?
that makes sense. i suppose that'll look pretty good
are they really made with metal?
i prefer the yellow one. it looks so cute.
but the blue one looks so cool. just like a robot~~

kinda like that But you shouldnt drop your phone anyway. Its better to break a 20-30$ bumper than a 600$ phone
I have a taurus one at the moment, if I drop it and it break, ill just go with a walnut one. Im using it because it fit with the 3200-3500mA battery. If I could get an otterbox for extended battery I would, but they wont make one

Hi,
I'm looking for a very protective case for when I go hiking or stuff like that. I want to make sure that if I happen to drop the phone or have it my pocket and lean against a rock and forget I had it my pocket, no harm will be the done to the phone. Basically a case for an outdoors/nature type of environment.
I don't care about aesthetics because this will not be my normal day case...
I was thinking of the Candy Shell one: http://www.speckproducts.com/smartphone-cases/candyshell-grip-for-htc-one.html
Does anyone have it? Is it good for the kind of needs I described? Or do you have a better suggestion?

I'd recommend an Otterbox Defender Series case, somewhat expensive but they protect the phone well.

On ebay you can find it way cheaper.
Can't post a link because I don't have enough posts, but you can search for it and the cheapest I found was € 15, so approx. $ 20.

That's a nice price...
I found it cheaper on Amazon, still not as cheap as the one you mentioned. I'll have to take a look...
IMHO, after testing various cases for HTC one, the best one regarding overall protection is the double dip original case, being the only one actually protecting the speakers grills.
That case a little trimmed to fit the phone with the MIME glass on it is by far the most complete protection (and is looking good also).

Maybe for everyday use. But while your hiking I highly doubt it will do much protecting against possibly sharp rocks and falling more than your average pocket/ear height.

Then ... http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/htc-one-ballistic-sg-maxx-series-case
The major problem is that the speaker grills are completely exposed (like all cases unfortunately).
I had a devilcase for my HTC one and loved it but they aren't making a version for the nexus 5 unfortunately. Anyone know of anything similar for the nexus 5?

You mean the Neo Hybrid case? It's not aluminum, it's plastic and the case is crazy slippery. Not recommended.

I have the neo hybrid and its not slippery at all. The whole back is extremely grippy and only the outside lip is smooth plastic. Its far less slippery than the nexus4 and my old GS2.

Yours must be an exception then, since you're the only one I've seen say that.
The back on mine was incredibly slippery.

mine is extremely slippery swell. so is the plastic bumper, I wrote a complaint letter to soigen in the hope that they don't use that texture again. I still use the case though. might just end uonwith a cheap eBay tpu case with grippy edges.

I tried plastidip once, sounded great in theory until you put it in your pocket and it pulls out every piece of lint that was in there.
I would love an aluminum bumper. Hope someone knows of one in the works

Hi,
I have to agree, it's extremely slippy, so bad for me that I have already ordered replacement.

[edit] Call me stupid... I just had my Slim Armour case off and indeed it is *not* an aluminum backplate. I put it on so quickly when I first received it, and it had been outside in my mailbox all day, so it felt cold and with the anodized-look I just assumed aluminum without thinking about it very hard.
I agree with others regarding the slippery-ness of it though... But I really like the look so i'm just being really careful not to drop it when I whip it out of my pocket.
How about this one?
Im thinking if ordering one..

Got to agree with you. I paid $9,95 for a case that looks exactly like this one. Different brand, I just ordered one.
how do you like the case? is the back slippery or is there a good amount of grip with it?

Good amount of grip on half the back. The sides have ridges.

I don't have it covered all the time, just when I go bike riding, fishing, or other activities where I need an extra grip.
had one of these cases for my razr and it took drops like a total champ. but it did scrape the s**t out of the phone from sand and stuff getting in it.
anyone of you using leather case for 3T? and any recommended?thx!
The leather flip case from Oneplus is quite good except the fact that rubbing your phone in pocket or somewhere else it will give you this result.
And i have this case for 2 months

Yup. It say in description of the product. And it feels like a genuine one also. In fact i think that only those edges are covered with sort of rubber/latex that's why the problem.
If you need some real top class leather case, then just blindly go with this guy. The website is http://godbolegear.in/ and is based out of Mumbhai and will ship all over india. He uses some of the worlds best leather ( from wickett and craig tannery which is 150 years old) and uses vegetable tanning. For oneplus 3T it will look very premium and case is expensive than all others available which are not genuine leather stuff.

I am about to order the phone and I was thinking also about that case. My main concern is about not being magnetic. I had a similar case for my s7 edge and I dropped it once and the case just opened freely leaving the screen vulnerable. Does this happen with this case too?
