Hey guys, decided the Moto X is indeed the phone for me...so I ordered a case. I've been using a Diztronic case for a few years now on various phones and always liked them. They're sleak and they provide just a little extra lift to keep the screen off the pavement if you drop it face down. Pretty much all I could ask for.
Anyway, the Moto X Diztronic case is stellar. Here's a few pics:

...now I just need to wait for the Cardninja I ordered and I'll be set. It's funny, a few years ago, it was 'never leave the house without phone, ipod, wallet, keys'. I dropped the iPod a few years back, and think I'm finally dropping the wallet. Now, I just need NFC to start my car and I'm set.
Agreed. Picked up the clear case and love it!

Got the matte black, it's perfect for me. I had the GNEX version for the last 18 mos and liked it.
Does this have the dimple in the case?

how hard is it to look at the photos posted above?
I got the matte black, and this case is awesome: fits perfectly, adds very little bulk, feels great, and it's cheap! Only downsides are it covers the back of the device and the buttons, which actually doesn't bother me because I just have the plain black verizon model. It also covers the dimple which I know bothers some people. Lastly the lips around the screen make it a little difficult to get your thumbs to the edge of the screen, which makes it a little difficult to drag app icons to a different home screen. No big deal though.
Too bad it doesn't have an indent for the dimple or at least a cutout for it
the hyperion is 99% the same, but has the dimple.
http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Moto...-Packaging/dp/B00CXLY9KG/ref=pd_sim_sbs_cps_5
I bought both the Hyperion and the ditztronic. The ditzrtonic seems slightly slimmer and has much better buttons than the hyperion. I like it better overall besides not having the dimple...So what i did was i took a hallow hole punch and made a dimple hole in the ditztronic.
I used something like this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000I1IWVA/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And this is the result:
I made it a little bigger than it should be because i was afraid if i didn't center it perfectly it would be off the dimple.

how does TPU react when being drilled? Did it wiggle about or just cuts through like paper? Really curious how TPU reacts to violent force.

I used a hallow hole punch. You don't drill with a hallow hole punch, you hit it with a happer. It took a lot of hard banging but it cut it pretty cleanly. You also have to hold the punch down pretty well so it doesn't move/bounce around. I practiced on the hyperian case becuase i didn't plan on using that case. For some reason the hyperian case was a lot easier to put a hole in.

How hard is it to tell if there is an indent in the back of the case when the picture is taken straight on?
While the punch is a cool idea, I would be interested in finding a case that actually has an indent for your finger AND protects the back of the phone.

Sorry, I guess I'm still not making my wishes clear
A case that does not have a physical cutout for the dimple, but a case that is dimpled itself that is contoured into the dimple on the X. Does this make a little more sense?
Can those with the clear case confirm if it gets dirty, especially along the corners? My wife as the griffin white reveal and the corners look terrible.

I have a clear one (it's frosted on the inside, so not _completely_ clear). Had it since October when I got the phone. With my white phone in the case, it looks pretty grey now, especially on the corners and edges. I don't really mind, since it keeps the phone white!

The buttons on the SUPCASE are pretty bad, unfortunately. I have one and love it otherwise but never use it because of that reason - mostly use my bumper case that has great button feedback.
Diztronic are then only cases I will buy. Love it on my Moto X.

Just moved from a Hyperion to a Diztronic because the headphone port on the Hyperion was too small. Both are good cases, but man the Diztronic seems slippery to me compared to the Hyperion - it's almost flown out of my hand a couple times over the past few days. Really nice case though.

10/23/2010 edit: I no longer recommend these cases. Neat idea, but they just don't last. If you want a thin case I'd go pure TPU. Personally I'm now using the Otterbox Commuter and not looking back. Excellent case.
Just ordered these 2 bad bays... they are called hybrid cases. found the link in another thread here on XDA. The back is made out of hard Poly Carb and the sides are made out of soft TPU. I picked em up on ebay... so what do you guys think? i'm pretty pleased. the TPU is very soft so the buttons are very very easy to press compared to other TPU cases I've used. Only problem I see is the PC back will probably scratch up quicker then a full TPU case would. The white & clear makes the white evo look how HTC should of made it look. kinda strange that they made the sides black on the white evo.

Very nice. How tight is the fit? Will the case come off if I slide the phone in my back jean pocket?
Very nice. Mine should be here tomorrow. I love white cases.
Yes these are VERY nice cases! I just got mine in the mail last week. Ordered from Ebay Store Monster Accessories. The Cool part is... if you take off your original cover.. then you get all red!! Its pretty nice!
Looks good. Glad the buttons are easy to press. I ordered a black with smoke back that should be here any day.

looks pretty good! i think i like it with the white better though. I hope the Poly Carb back doesn't scratch up my battery cover, I've only used TPU before and that's too soft to scratch a phone, but PC definitely could. I'll keep my eye on it.

And you have no problems with the power or volume button? My frosted white TPU from evocase was great except for the button problem. Its just too hard to press. Also can you give a link so I could order the correct one. Many thanks.
sorry to ask but how much did it cost you?
mines cost 8.95 free shiping because after i saw this thread i looked on ebay and there where very expensive.
the link i bought it from is this one http://cgi.ebay.com/CLEAR-White-Sof...30415250927?pt=PDA_Accessories#ht_2989wt_1137
Be careful with these.. I have the clear/white model shown at the top. 2 days after geting them, there are stress cracks by the hole for the camera and the speaker. I called daydeal to rma and return then figured out its not worth it and just keep the one I got
just ordered mine, looks like exactly what im lookin for.
Juss. Order this case from the same site these are gorgeous... can wait till it comes

Man that's just ugly! What's wrong with just black?
Just an FYI, daydeal.com has an ebay store as well and you can save around 2-4 by buying from there instead. I just got the hybrid red and clear case for $9.50.
stores.ebay.com/daydealdaydeal <-- not a typo
does this case protect the cammera lens?
Trying to decide between this or a full TPU case to replace the Innocase II.
Any idea how this case would fit in the Innocase holster?
Got mine with the black border and smoke back today. Overall I am very pleased. Pressing the power and volume buttons is as easy if not easier than without a case at all. I love the look because you can see the HTC and sprint logos through the back. It will likely scratch easier though. The biggest downside is it's not as snug around the sides as I would like. Specifically I have a bulge on the upper left side that doesn't fit snug against the side. Could be just the one I got though.

I got a clear on clear and the fit is great. it fits snugly, camera is recessed, kickstand has a 1 mm border unprotected, but its not a dealbreaker. i didnt want the kind without the individual speaker/flash/camera cutouts. this one has them. i also didn't want one of the kind with the diamond pattern. i like this case a lot. Purchased Friday, recvd Monday. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400143134032
4.99 free shipping.
***Note - I am not a case fan, but I'm a klutz. My requirement was a 100% clear, non bulky case. I searched for over an hour and my choices were out of the one i got, and a 100% clear all TPU case. I feel that maybe the all tpu would have fared better in a drop. (This is the closest I could find to what I wanted... not 100% clear but close, with individual cutouts http://www.amazon.com/HTC-Evo-Flexi-Skin-Case/dp/B003X6BVX8/ref=sr_1_47?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1281690779&sr=1-47) I love my case, and in the end I think it looks less cheap than the 100% TPU.***

All I know is that my Innocase II Blows! It's loose and a bit bulky. I think I'm going to test drive one of these. Oh..and I paid freaking 26 bucks for the Seido!

Not sure if anybody's tried this case or posted a thread about it but this TPU case is less than 5 bucks so I figured I can't really lose much here if I'm not satisfied. I bought the other TPU case that's pretty common on ebay with the polygon design on the back and I hated it because it made the unlock button so ridiculously hard to press that I had to use my nail. I eventually ended up cutting the button out with a razor blade but I was still unhappy because I didn't like the polygon design.
When I saw this case I noticed in the photos that the button design on the case were circular instead of squared like the other TPU case and that the back design were just criss-cross diagonal lines which I thought looked MUCH better and the circular button design appeared to function a lot better from the photos although I wasn't quite sure but like I said I figured what the heck could I really lose but 5 bucks.
Anywho, I got the case in today and it's the PERFECT case that I've been looking for. It keeps the phone looking thin and the buttons are soft and easy to press just like I was hoping. It functions just like the black silicone case you can get from tmobile but still keeps the phone looking thin. I definitely recommend this case and I think it comes in various colors.
Just wanted to give my .02 cents and sorry for the ridiculously long post lol

I can't really take any photos cause I don't have another camera but it pretty much looks exactly the way it's shown in the ebay photos. The fitment is great also. It's really well worth the 4.48 or whatever the price was lol.
I had something similar for my HTC Magic, the one issue I had with the case though is since it is silicone and not as hard as some materials, you have to make sure you keep the case in its shape; I flashed a new Rom on my Magic every 12 hours (which required to take the case on and off frequently) and my case started to become deformed and leave major spaces between the phone and the case allowing dust to get inside.
This is just my experience from a similar product but try it, it protected my phone from many drops without giving the phone itself any damage.

do these types of cases stick to your pockets? I have the t-mobile gel case and it pulls my pocket lining out with it half the time.

No these are made of tpu so it's not sticky like ordinary silicone skins. It's a more solid material. Doesn't have that rubbery feel that regular silicone cases have. I have the tmobile gel skin too and although it's much better then your average silicone case I didn't like how it added a lot of bulk to the front of the phone.
thanks, i agree the t-mobile case is bulky as well

ahhh, i bought that, got it 2 days ago, i LOVE it.
it covers the front around all the way until the glass area so its very tight.
very flexible, and in my opinion i think it offers more protection than the hard cases because of the cushioning you get from the flexibility of the material, but its still very solid, pretty easy to take on and off too.
bought one and agree
very nice case, great tight fit, minus the annoyances of all other cases I had tried
Is this the same as this case?

No that one is different. That case has a hard backing where as this case is silicone tpu all around.
Ah Ok, I was hoping it was somewhat simular. I could really go for another look. Black gets a bit boring after a while.

Hey everyone, I received my TPU case from EBay (item 290530353216) today, here are some comments and pics. The fit is only OK - the cutout for the USB/HDMI ports is a little off, and there is a little bit of an edge around the power button that impedes fingerprint swipability a little. I will say too that I didn't expect it to have the goofy pattern - what is it with TPU cases and argyle patterns?? Also, as you've noticed it is somewhat translucent.
I give it a 3/5. $7 shipped in the US. I'll keep it until another inexpensive case rolls around that is higher quality.
And just in case anyone wonders, on my screen are the Pandora Widget, Android Agenda Widget, and some apps. I am running ADW Launcher (free). Also, I know I left my back panel sticker on there, and that was on purpose.

Yeah seriously with the frikin argyle ****! Its like they made a billion sheets of the argyle TPU and they just like heat mold them to phones (not like thats how they're made). This will be my third phone encased in argyle TPU. Other two were the dark one like yours, this time I got sick of trying to hide the argyle and people asking about the stupid pattern. I got clear so, "yes its frikin argyle! got a problem!?"
Waiting for the Realook screen protectors to be cut. no idea why it takes them so long to cut the right size. Realooks are by far the best screens...
Everything is temporary at this point...I'll buy nicer stuff once my 30 days are up.
I was fortunate enough to have a solid black non-patterned TPU case for my EVO that someone on this forum actually commissioned and was selling out of their garage essentially.
Check out tpu-cases.com. I bought an all black one there, shipped same day. Quality is nice, it's glossy, feels good in the hand for an 8$ case.
the 1.99 one I got from ebay is decent
Nice, never seen that site before. I'll order one up and hopefully it'll get here by the time I'm home from travel. Wish someone would make one like I had for my Evo though - it was matte on the back and shiny on the front.

Well I tried the Speck (or whatever it's called) case from AT&T and hated it...looked and felt like a toy.
Then I tried the Otterbox Impact (the smallest case they make). It's made of a type of rubber that sucks up all dust and won't let it go. It's pure black rubber but after putting it in my pocket and driving up to Starbucks to meet some friends...it looked gray. My pockets don't have any lint or anything in them...and yet the case now looks completely gray. I just put it on yesterday. It's also a bit big for my tastes...and the phone can easily come out of the bottom.
I'm going to try the cheapest cases on eBay. They always worked great for my Nexus 1 and most other phones I've used. The cheap thin rubber is fantastic for me. The phone's so freaking sexy...I just don't want to add a bunch of mass to it.

i like the feather as well. not much in terms of impact protection, but most of my scratches come from the phone vibrating on the desk over time and scuffing the battery door, so its a nice line of defense against that. also, its a little less slippery than the standard battery door which i like

Yeah its great for worrying less about the normal wear and tear.
I particular like the argyle tpu cases which give decent protection and feel. i have it for the ipad, galaxy tab, atrix, inspire, and xoom.
www.degasis.net offers these as well
I ordered my case from http://www.degasis.net/models/atrix.html (as the poster above recommended. $6.98 shipped
This is the best fitting TPU case I've had across all my devices. The best part is that it actually makes the on/off button easier to push and the finger scanner easier to operate (its cut at the perfect angle to compliment it). Its slightly different cut but a better fit than the pictures posted above.
I'll post pictures when I come across another camera some time today or tomorrow.
TPU is far superior to any other case material in my book. perfect balance of grip/non-stick, thinness, protection, and fit.

That's the problem I have with the feather - it doesn't protect either end of the device, only the sides and back.
Judging by the picture, it looks like you have that "textured" screen protector. What is the screen protector you are using? Those are my favorite kinds and I have been trying to find one for a while! thanks in advance
Kbc, who are you asking? I'm using an AT&T screen protector. It's matte and perfectly smooth.

Sounds similar to the one i had on my desire but I cant find it anywhere now

This is the best fitting TPU case I've had across all my devices. The best part is that it actually makes the on/off button easier to push and the finger scanner easier to operate (its cut at the perfect angle to compliment it). Its slightly different cut but a better fit than the pictures posted above.

OK, you've sold me on this case Good description of how it is, what colour did you get?
Came across these by accident. I LOVE THEM! I was looking at the cases available for the Infuse, and found this odd brand by the name of Ballistic making a case for it. I became jealous and Googled them. Google took me to their website which I discovered, OUR PHONE is supported!
Here's the link (they are $35 & $50 for the one on the right): http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/motorola-atrix-ballistic-sg-series-case

These are great if you have a UHaul to carry your phone around in after you have encased it in this thing!
The second one from the right...
It looks like it would suck to wake the phone up or use the fingerprint sensor.
And taking this on a plane TSA would think it's a bomb

Just emailed them to let me know when they are available. I have the otterbox defender and while I usually recommend them, the one for the atrix has issues. I'm on my second outer silicone part, and this one doesn't fit right either. The bottom corners bulge away from the inner plastic part, which makes them come off pretty easy.

x2
The cases happen to be made right here in Fort Lauderdale on the other side of town. I may go get one on Monday. I have the Commuter case which I like, especially since the ports and earphone jack have covers to keep out dust and dirt and the case is easy to get on and off. I dunno if the ballistic has covers and there are no pictures of the front i can find but the design and colors look nice and I am sure the protection is good. Anyone get one yet?
Damn that thing looks thicker then my otterbox defender case. I like the color schemes though. Does it come with a holster? I have to use the holster with my defender case, just to hard putting it in my pocket.

Let us know if you get one. I definitely want one! Black on black is my choice, but the red/black looks pretty cool too.
Awesome!
Got my Ballistic SG
Well I recieved my Ballistic SG in the mail today, got it off ebay for $22 bucks! I haven't bought a lot of cases for my Atrix yet, I tried a Otterbox Impact on launch day and was disappointed with that. This case however feels extremely tough, My brother has the Otterbox Commuter, which i thought was awesome untill this one showed up. It feels very solid, The ports on the side are left exposed, as well as the speaker grill. The space for the fingerprint sensor does feel a slight bit cramped when swiping downwards, I may have to re-enter my prints to get it to read more accurately, but for now it doesn't seem to affect it too much. I've only had it for about 30 minutes but so far i'm impressed. The case doesn't slide around on the phone (though that may be in part to my invisible shield). The rubber/silicone layer does attract dust, but overall I'm happy with my purchase. I attached a few pictures if anyone's interested.

Not a bad looking case ya got there... is it rubber or plastic or both?
Edit: so the grey is rubber, red is plastic?
Sent from my Motorola Atrix 4G on the network with the most backhaul, whatever that is. This post might have errors as I hate touchscreen keyboards.
Yeah, the black part is rubber, the red is plastic, with a weird layer of black, that feels like slightly rubberized plastic. After using it for a few hours now I'm still satisfied with it. Definitely feels more solid than my brothers commuter case. Now to wait for the HC to be released and try that sucker out.
Dude, that's freaking sweet looking. Can't wait for the HC cases to be released.

Can you please drop your phone from the second or third floor while it's in the case and if nothing happens can you drop it without a case? I just want to check how though is the case before investing in it.

epic !
I like it! May replace my Commuter, even though I couldnt be happier with the OB.
covered ports
I did not buy this case (yet). It looks really similar to the Commuter case as the designs are the same///a soft rubber held on with a hard plastic. However, the ports are not covered on this one. On the commuter both ports are covered in addition to the earphone jack. Someone here reported dust on the inside of the screen and it may have entered thru the earphone jack? On my wish list is a case with a built in stand.
So, I was looking for a new skin on my phone when I realized that I didn't want to do a wrap. If you're like me, you'll spend $10 and then remove the skin in like a week. After that you'll have to buy another one if you want to go through the process again. I'm not 100% into cases because of bulk and this is a damn sexy phone.
I scoured a few different places looking for a white thin case when I came across this: ELAGO THIN CASE
Here are my pros:
Fit is perfect
Cut outs are exact
This actually feels like it could be part of the phone
Has a Matte White look
Not TPU, its a hard plastic
Lots of compliments just in one day
Cons (Keep in mind, these are things people may not like but doesn't bother me)
Phone is still a little slippery
Buttons are now a bit more flush with the case
Zero lip over the glass to put upside down
The cut outs are exact so accessories are about 1mm from being perfect
I'm going back for the other two colors. This is an awesome case. Does anyone else have any ultra thin cases they can recommend.

Is there a promo code for that one? Kinda high in price.
got this today, it's going back. I have a skin on my phone, the case went on with ease on top of that and was still not snug
I got the Anccer in gravel black:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XTQKJY8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Preserves "caseless" feel, super grippy.
Do not spend 10 USD for just re-branded case.
Buy the exact same one just for 4USD.

Good call.
Edit: Just went to the link. I just don't like AliExpress. I had problems with them in the past. 20-39 days for a case when I can get it in 2 days from Amazon, meh... I'll pay the difference.

Really? That's a bummer. Mine fits perfect and has no movement. I don't have any sort of skin. I wonder if that's throwing off the fit.

It looks just as good in person.
Needs a top and bottom lip. Put your phone face down and it will scratch.

Nope. User a screen protector.. Cases with lips exist. This is for absolute minimalists.
Just went to the mailbox to get the Elago case I ordered after seeing this thread. I'm coming from the Spigen Slim case and, even by comparison, the Elago is ridiculously thin! I love it, but it definitely needs to be paired with a screen protector in order to keep the phone somewhat safe.
It is probably not nearly as thin as that case, but I usually buy Ringke Fusion cases for every phone I get. I love the way it adds the extra tactile feel to the buttons, and has saved me from many drops even on asphalt and hard concrete. I'm not sure how it is on the S8+ yet as my S8+ is not here yet. but I've used Ringke Fusion cases on OP3T, Nexus 6P, Nexus 6, Xperia Z3, and I have loved it on every phone.

Not even close.
Just a heads up. The Elago scratches and scuffs pretty easily. Not that I expected much from such an inexpensive case but, I've been babying my black Elago and, within 24 hours it already has 4 or 5 long scuff marks across the back. Not a big deal, just thought I'd mention. It would've been nice if they had used the same type of rubberized finish found on the Spigen and Ringke slim cases.
