Hi there,
My girlfriend got home today with a Speck FabShell on her iPhone 4S. Dude, that feels great in the hand! I searched a bit but didn't find anything like that for the XPeria S, is there such a case? I did find one from a brand named Kalaideng, but it wasn't on-stock anywhere I looked, nor it did look as nice as this FabShell (which has the fabric cover on the sides too - it surely adds thickness, but provides great grip and feel). If there isn't any other option available, one of these will have to do, so I'd appreciate if someone could provide a link for a reliable site which has it in stock and ships globally.
Plus, minor side note: while searching for the case mentioned above, I stepped on a supposedly real carbon fiber case going for $2/piece on Alibaba. I think it's too cheap to be the real deal, but if anyone out there got their hands on one and could provide some feedback about it, I'd appreciate, too.
Thanks in advance!

It's some kind of fabric, can't tell exactly what, specially because she went on a trip a few days ago. Anyway, I bought the Kalaideng one I mentioned on Aliexpress, 11 bucks. Waiting for it to arrive to see if it was worth the cash.
Will you post a little comment about it when it will arrive?

Sure I will, but don't expect it anytime soon, because post offices just went on strike here. Under a normal situation, it would take about a month to arrive, but now I'm betting in at least 6 weeks.
O.O Good luck and take patience hand by hand

What I'd really like is a screen protector to be here and ready when my GNex finally arrives.
As far as this goes I think it looks slightly tacky.
I found one from china for 3. Wonder if it will get here before the phone. Lol

I just got these off ebay for $11 shipped. For around $2 per case i dont expect great quality but, they should do the job untill a proper one comes along a little after release.
Looks nice, I have a feeling there will be a lot of accessories for this phone over any other Android device.
I had one for my Nexus S and SGS2 in matte black, I hate glossy. Anyone seen one yet?
They're decent and cost effective. I purchased a few from ebay with no complaints

So I remember when i had my first ipod touch years ago i had this clear see through hard case and i loved it. It didnt really add that much bulk and it felt nicely in the hand. Im getting the white gs3 and i really dont want to take anything away from the look and feel and I want at least some protection. I was wondering if there was any kind of clear hard case out for this phone right now?

I was looking at this case but im not sure on how hard it is or if it was like one of those flimsy silicone cases.
there are tons of them here - http://www.ebay.ca/sch/i.html?_nkw=...+tridea&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313

I just ordered the Iluv case. The shipping was a bit tough to swallow, but I couldn't stop looking at it all day which is my sign that it is something I really want.

I cant wait to rock it with my galaxy nexus when it gets shipped!
The reason i went with the iluv translucent case over a regular clear hard case was because after the back of that clear case gets scratched up from setting it down on things, it is going to start looking like crap. all the case nice and clear with beat up scratch marks on the contact points. The translucent will no doubt get scratched also, but IMO will be less obvious.

I received this case today. Just thought I would let you guys know that it has a soft feel to it that provides good grip. I thought it would be just hard slick plastic, so I'm pleased with that aspect. Now I just need AT&T to ship my phone! lol

Guys, thought I would share a case of I just got in the mail today. You can view it here:
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=251205640188&index=12&nav=SEARCH&nid=51832567878
Didn't know how it would be as the price is very good. But I must say it is very good. Very solid on the phone and feels just like a real Otterbox. Even has the Otter logo on the back of the case and on the holster. Very happy with this purchase. Spending $12 on a case that is very close to the ones that list for $40+ is a deal in my book any day!
It ships from Hong Kong so it will take a few days. Mine arrived very quickly even through the holidays. About 9 days which is very good.

How's the power and volume button stiffness? Is it super hard to press or is it much easier to press than the real one?
can you post some pics of it on your phone?
I will try and get some pics up soon. The case feels really firm. The Plastic does not give any and the buttons are hard, in a good way. They are firm to when you push them they respond. It is really hard to tell this is a knock off. Heck, the holster is just like the otter box kind. No doubt it will hold up if dropped.

Ok ikn what you all do with your phones but ive been using otterbox since tye original htc evo... i work in retail as a stock clerk... im always loading akd unloading trucks , cutting opening boxes amd packages , in dusty areas ( sometimes ) ive dropped my otterbox several times and never cracked or broke never got anything in it ... also you can get defender cases for about $20 on amazon with tax and shipping maybe $25. Thats half of retail... same with the commuter case runs about $17 on amazon.... also otterbox has a great warranty I had one issue on my evo of the rubber scratching out ... contacted otter box not only did they send me a whole new case but also sent me 2 new rubber pieces so the $12 you spent $10 more dollars you can get a real otter box and have a great warranty.... btw I have friends that have that case and the rubber will stratch out fast and will have to buy another case within 4 months or so.... btw picture is showing how many otter boxes I have gotten for one phone and how easy it is to replace.

im more interested in how stiff the commuter buttons are since the one i tried at the beatbuy store ia extremely stuff and hard to press. i also do not feel any feedback to the button press which makes me a little worried.
some members have mentioned it loosens up but I need it to be able to be pressed normally without having to rrally force the buttons.

This is theft, plain and simple.
I reported it to Ebay for counterfeit violation. You guys want companies to make cool cases? Don't support this stuff. Companies invest a lot of money in their product and some clown in Hong Kong doesn't need to be supported in stealing their effort.

Hello all,
I have seen/heard many things about the double-dip case for the HTC One (which I'm picking up next week!), however I am trying to find & buy the black/grey/black double dip case and can't find it anywhere! If anyone can point me in the right direction, that would me much appreciated.
Also, does it even exist/is it out yet? Almost everywhere I look I only see the red/white/black one, but on HTC's official site, the 4th picture accross shows the one I'm looking for.
Again, any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

I did read here on the forums that some people's phones were scratched because of it, but that the cause was remnant plastic from the speaker grill holes.
Also, I don't think it is too badly overpriced. Maybe by $5. Most of the other slim cases sell for around $20.

The HTC One itself does bear striking similarities (and I'm getting the black one, so even more so) to the iPhone 5 already, I don't really mind that. After all, everyone tries to copy the iphone in some way or another. Just look at Samsung. Plus, the case is basically the same as the back of the phone itself. Just a little added protection .
I have double dip case and it hasn't scratched my phone. Picking up the case-mate tough case to go with all the others I have. It's an addiction!

I haven't seen all the colors from the official HTC site so I was the wondering what the build quality is.
I'll give it ago anyways. Thanks for the same eBay link, I live in Australia so its very helpful!
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta
So I bought the grey/black one from that seller. Build quality seems solid. I have never played around with the red/black/grey one so I can't compare.
Fit was snug but no scratches. Volume buttons are a bigger pain then without the case which says something since they already weren't that great. Everything else seems pretty good. I like that it doesn't add much bulk to the phone.
Won the auction on the 19th (Friday) and received the cover on the 30th (Tuesday). Not bad considering it was an international delivery.
Let me know if you have any questions.

I have one, they're definitely nice, the buttons press a little too easy (I end up turning my volume up when I press the power) and I lost roughly 1 bar of service, but otherwise I love the case. I'd say look on eBay for them, I got one that was only like $18 instead of the one I see most times that like $30+
