I much prefer slim hard cases, typically seidio brand. I can't seem to find a good alternate. Quality is much more important to me than price. What do you guys suggest?
I'm on my fourth case and they all suck. One scratches the phone. One turns it off when I'm not looking. One fits too loosely, and one got all dirty the first day.
I'm going to buy this one next in silver. I like the fact that it looks like there's really no case and it got good reviews on the case mate site. I'll let you know how I like it if you want.

I've been using my case-mate tough case ever since they came out with them, and I can't speak highly enough about the quality and fit.

I tried this case in silver and sent it back. I found that it degraded my phone signal. Of course, AFTER I buy it I do some searching and find other complaints on the silver cases for various phones.

I haven't noticed any issues with the silver barely there case that I just got. But as far as protection goes, probably not the best one for this thread's request.
I also have a tough case, which I highly recommend for anyone looking for a solid case for protection.
Case-mate tough case is great, as someone allready stated I cannot recommend it strongly enough. You won't find a better case for the money or more imo

What about the body glove case? I was looking at that one for a hard case. What do you guys think about it? Anyone use it?
I have a body glove case and frankly it leaves alot to be desired. The case easily doubles the thickness of the phone, and with out fail turns out my jean pockets every time I use it. I'm not sure if i got a bad case or what but the case does not seal properly all the way around the phone. I have had the misfortune of dropping my case from table height (appx 3ft high) and the body glove case did protect the phone wonderfully. I have the full black and chrome case, not the clear back shell. I am in the process of deciding on a different case and thus far I am heavily leaning towards the case-mate tough case.
Mesh case. Love it... every other case makes a thin phone too large.

Hope that doesn't happen with the one I just ordered. But everything else you say about the case sounds great to me. I don't know how many times I have almost dropped the phone from it slipping out of my hands while pressing the volume or power buttons. Do the black Case-Mate cases have a rubberized feel to them?
My vote is for the bodyglove case. I have been through 4 cases and this far is my favorite. It protects gives the extra bulk and looks slick. It also has a kick stand which I use all the time.

Case Mate tough case for me. Silicone inside prevents scratches and tough plastic outside offers some protection from falls.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Here is a couple pics of the body glove in action. By the way it protects well I have dropped it a couple of times and the case comes apart instead of the phone breaking. I dont know how you wear your phone but I slide the phone in my pocket with the clip sticking out.
Trident Case for Samsung Vibrant
Got the TPU case, good fit, but feels cheap. Got the mesh case, looks decent but not much protection. Got tired of waiting for Otterbox. Almost got the CaseMate Toughcase but they only come in black or pink. Then I came across this last week. Check out the plugs and the buttons, even the back camera has clear cover over it. Liked the attention to details so pre-ordered it. According to the website, they're being shipped this Wednesday 11/17. Since I'm new, I can't post the link, here are some photos of the product. Just google Trident Cyclops Samsung Vibrant. Be sure to "Like" them on Facebook to save the $6.00 shipping. I wish ElementCase would make an ION3 or Liquid Carbon for Vibrant. I'm so sick of iphony and ipotty getting all the good cases.

I got my silver case mate barely there and it is awesome. I guess it is more of a looks than protection thing, but the front of the case is over the bezel so when the phone is face down there's still a gap. The silver is really good looking. Case mate also sent it the day I ordered, and I got it from GA to CA in 3 days.

Are you sure it wasn't just a coincidence? The complaints were about the chrome, not the metallic silver. I haven't seen anything, and my phono widget says the signal is as strong as ever.

It's hard plastic with a rubbery feel. It's smooth enough to slide into my pocket and not pick up lint, but sticky enough that it can sit on my center armrest in the car without worrying about it sliding off.
There's also about a 1/16th inch high border around the screen that does a good job of keeping down any chance of a drop resulting in the screen touching anything the ground.

Figures!!! The upper left corner of the body glove case doesn't want to keep closed. I just sent an email to the seller for a refund. I'm thinking of just getting a extended battery with a rubberized back cover, and a new pouch to fit it.
Yea that's why I have the casemate now, hopefully you didn't order it on ebay there was this one seller that I bought it from and he would not repond to my messages about the case, also my bodyglove case won't stay closed at all anymore. I just think their quality control isn't all that great.
The tough case feels like abs plastic and is textured so it doesn't catch on pocket lining when you pull the phone out your pocket but it still feels good ib your hand and doesn't feel like its going to slout og your hands

What case do you have?
Overall I am happy with my new case. It is a big case however. Some may or may not like that. I do feel that finally my tab is protected if I were to drop it. I do wish that the case did not have so much cushion to it, but its far better than the original Samsung Book Case.

Thanks for the information, Ken.
Verizon has been listing this new case for the past couple of days:
http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/accessory?action=accessoryDetails&accessoryId=47710
but they don't show stock anywhere. It looks a bit like the ZAGGFolio case, but with a leather cover, a simpler hinge and prop-up leg arrangement, and 50% more expensive.
I'm almost thinking of actually getting the ZAGG even though the sides cover the LTE tab's buttons. Someone in the ZAGG thread mentioned he was using it, but it was covering his buttons (indicating that he was using it with an LTE tab) so it must work, though you would have trouble turning it on and off that way.
I managed to find a slightly otterbox like case for the FLO. Here is the link for the case. I will be able to do a hands on review tomorrow after i pick it up from my apartment.
I did not see any threads about this case. If anyone has information about the durability, drop protection,etc, of the case, please share. Ill give an update with my hands on review included, after i finish the review. In the mean time, hopefully someone else has their own take on this case.
I dont expect it will be an Otterbox replacement. Hopefully it does offer some level of protection against accidental handling mishaps.

As far as i know, there has yet to be an otterbox for the FLO. I had to wait about a month and a half into my ownsership of the FLO to find a case that is remotely "armor" like. The purpose of the case isnt to replace an otterbox, it is to hold me over UNTIL otterbox makes one for the FLO.
The gumdrop case looks nice, but the ribbing on the back would get on my nerves fast. Ill deal with what i have until an otterbox comes out.
It seems that Otterbox took the N7 2012 case off their website. The page it used to be on gives me a 404 type error.
Did you try this Poetic case ? http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-REVOLUTION-Android-Manufacturer-Warranty/dp/B00E7FY8P2

I have that Poetic for my N7LTE and it rocks. I was somewhat worried about quality after purchasing a poetic for my wife's N7 (2012) however the 2013 version is great. It is definitely on par with otterbox cases.
Here is the review i promised. I did not get back to my place until today, so the review was delayed.
The case is very bulky and cumbersome. There is no space between the edge of the screen, and the inner part of the case' bezel. Both ports, as well as the microhpone, are uncovered. This could have been a decent case if it was not 3/4 inches thick and rather slippery when wet with skin oil or liquid. This case DOES NOT come with any sort of screen protector. The only redeeming quality about this case is its bulk makes driving games much easier when using the sensors to steer.
Here is the front view
Here is therear/side view
Overall id say its a 3-4/10. It has an almost 1/4 inch thick rubber outer shell over a pretty thin plastic one. It is no otterbox, but it might take a drop or two before it falters.
It makes the Nexus bulky?

I got this yesterday in mail (black and white colour). Very happy with the quality and all the ports/mic holes perfectly centered. sturdy feel. I dropped my phone 3 times without the case (luckily not much damage at all.. just minor ding on corner) and then i thought of buying a case before it has spider web screen.

Cruzerlite Bugdroid
I have been using the Cruzerlite Bugdroid TPU case. It has a slim profile while feeling quite sturdy and able to withstand a drop. All my friends who have the OnePlus One have this case. It comes in a very very wide variety of colors, too. The only downside is that it does fade after a while, but it really isn't that bad or too noticeable. The price is very reasonable for the quality of the product. It is easy to find on Amazon.
Hope this helps.

Make sure you get the one I linked to, with the slightly bigger corners, better protection
I've had the Diztronic case for around 7 months now and it's been perfect. Protected when dropped, not too bulky, slight raised lip on screen side to protect screen when placed screen face down.
The only negative I can think of is that it does add a bit of weight to the phone, although I'm sure that is inevitable based on the protection it gives and also the sturdy nature of the material it is made from.

Exactly... you want protection? Then you're gonna feel it
Try a casemate barely there on your phone and see if it protects... makes me wanna cringe immediately
I wouldn't wanna droptest with that on, or any other "lookyoucanhardlyseeandfeelmebecauseIamsothin" case
if you like TOTAL protection i recommend TWO cases TUDIA OMNIX and POETIC. i have the TO and my experience to it is that the covers of the audio and charger ports are not good if you use them for a prolong period of time they dont go back easily i mean there is a small part of the cover that tends to stay open.
FOR POETIC, i saw reviews both Oneplus.net and amazon they say that it is much better than TO it is much thin than the TO and the ports are much better.
Another great feature about the Diztronic is the way it covers the side buttons and gives them a more sturdy feel. I got another case previously and it had cut out for the buttons, but it was a pain trying to press them as the OnePlus One's side buttons are so small.

I really need some advice, I usually swear by OtterBox but they have of course not released any cases for the 10 and if you listen to them they say that they don't have it in their plans. So my question is what is the best case I get as an alternative to an OtterBox? I'm looking for something with a similar level of protection. I tried the unicorn beetle pro but I don't like it because there's plastic on the back of the case that makes it very slippery when placed on a surface, I miss the grip that the OtterBox had on the back of the case. Also I need a belt clip.
I just ordered one of these

Well, I'm an otterbox fan too. Sad there are no news about an otterbox for the 10. Check out the specific thread about cases... Just found something similar to Otterbox there...
http://www.amazon.com/SUPCASE-Full-...etle htc 10&qid=1462899739&ref_=sr_1_1&sr=8-1
Maybe that will cover our needs until there will be an otterbox in the future.
I ordered also an Incipio dual pro case, which is really nice but not so good like otterbox. I still don't have the device.. But the cases :laugh:
What I can't recommend is oeago double layer case... Ordered that too, but this is really hard plastic and I guess the device will get scratches easily with that one.
Edit... Just reread your post :angel:... Didn't saw your review about the Unicorn... Just ordered that one... So you don't recommend it?
Get this, you'll thank me later: http://www.amazon.com/SUPCASE-Full-...qid=1463161450&sr=8-1&keywords=htc+10+supcase
Only thing I would recommend you do is remove the screen protector from the case (it's just held on with glue) that way you can use whatever protector you choose. These cases are WAY better than Otterboxes.
i have the unicorn beetle ( above post links) its just a good as a otter box you will not be disappointed. best case I found for the 10 so far imo

The belt clip holds absolutely fine, I'm pretty sure that you can put the phone in the case either way but I think it's specifically designed to be put in with the screen facing inward. The only complaint I have the back of the phone is not 100% all silicone. The back of the case has hard plastic on it that makes it slide across surfaces very easily
It's worth mentioning that the phone does not clip into the belt holster as firmly as OtterBox's do, I think it's pretty clear that the case is considered a clone. Be careful because I would say that if you drop the phone from more than about maybe 10 feet in the air it may pop out of the belt clip

I would but unfortunately I do not have the case anymore, I returned it this morning out of frustration. As good as they try to be the sad truth is there is just no replacement for an OtterBox. I guess this is just the consequence of buying a phone so early, I'm hoping that within the next few months OtterBox releases a defender series Case for this phone, as soon as they do I'm all all over it
I'll try to explain as best I can, the belt clip on the beetle does not snap in, it is more of a friction fit I'm almost certain that you can put the phone in with the screen facing outward however when you do you will have to touch the screen with your fingers in order to get it out of the belt clip. The case is really a knockoff of the OtterBox defender, I had high hopes for it when I ordered it as well and despite the fact that I tried to get myself to like it I just couldn't
it says it will damage it if you do it face forward. waiting for jcase to return my phone so couldn't try it

You really returned it because it would slide around on it's back? Are you usually on a boat or something that would cause things that are laying on a flat surface to slide around on their own cause I honestly don't understand why that would be an issue, but in the past there would be pads of TPU on the corners of the phone so it would never have been able to do something like that.
Anyway, if a belt clip wasn't so important I would recommend Supcase's Unicorn Beetle Hybrid case (once it finally comes out) It's the other's little brother and is my absolute go-to for my past 4 or so devices. It is similar to the UAG cases, but they look and feel much better.
To be honest the protection that your case and the Otterbox offers is complete overkill. Btw, I absolutely hate the rubber material that Otterbox uses... talk about junk.

Anyway, if a belt clip wasn't so important I would recommend Supcase's Unicorn Beetle Hybrid case (once it finally comes out) It's the other's little brother and is my absolute go-to for my past 4 or so devices. It is similar to the UAG cases, but they look and feel much better.
To be honest the protection that your case and the Otterbox offers is complete overkill. Btw, I absolutely hate the rubber material that Otterbox uses... talk about junk.

I understand your point of view don't get me wrong. Yes I really returned it because it would slide around on its back, I need a casecase with some kind of grip. I don't go on a boat or anything but I'm in a wheelchair and I've had several instances where things started sliding around whenever I'm doing what I need to do. To be honest I've been using OtterBox's for so long that I've gotten used to them. I know where you're coming from when you talk about the silicone but to be honest I've never had any issue with OtterBox giving me a hard time about replacing it for me when need be
Some people consider the protection that an OtterBox defender offers as being overkill but I remember back in 2015 I accidentally ran over my OtterBox and I'll tell you what after that I was convinced that the case had just paid for itself, I had to get a new one because the case was broke but the phone was completely fine
