What case are you using?

Hi everyone
Just interested in finding out what case everyone is using or going to purchase.
I originally got the HTC HC 701 white flip but it gets dirty so quick so I am using the original pouch by HTC which I hate because I always feel nervous when taking my phone out or when anyone says " let me have a go on your phone" my heart starts racing. So I decided to order Noreve case in Ocean Blue but they take a month to deliver (What a joke) so I have ordered the Covert branded PU croc flip style case.

i bought the Melkco TPU black matte for 15 on ebay. i don't know how i like it yet, but it's probably good.

Im using the cheapo one that was recommended on here from eBay and hate it. But there is so little else available that it will have to do for now.

I'm using this one from Amazon, and love it:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/HTC-One-Ski...W92K/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1335262824&sr=8-2
I also love the way the camera lens now doesn't touch whatever surface I put the phone on.

The camera lens is recessed anyway.

To be REALLY correct: The camera lens is behind the glass.
That glass though is only recessed about a mil under the ring.
So better to have it protected by a few more mils of rubber then to accidentally get a scratch that will become the focal feature of all your future photos!

I had one of them, it offers great protection back & front, but it didn't fit properly around the micro usb socket, due to excess plastic. No biggie, especially for the price
Now ordered a Rock TPU case and Shocksock neoprene pouch.

Yeah it is so annoying when a phone is realised you have to wait at least 2months before you can hold of a decent case that you are happy with.
But saying that with my DHD I got as soon as it came out the Piel Frama case was available straight away.

What could I use to protect the camara? What about buying a screen protector and cutting it to size?

Sure, but not a cheap protector.

Any recommendations of a good screen protector I can use to cut to cover the camera lens.

Nice and light, almost like it's not there. Only £3.99 when i bought it, now gone up to £4.99 I think.

I have this and the official HTC One X Slip Pouch...
Initially I only had the pouch but found the phone a little slippery at times and droppped it in the office.

I bought a black TPU case off eBay before the release of the phone. It fits very well and adds only a little bulk to the phone. I prefer without a case but for safety sake I'm using it. For £3 or so its a great deal and was delivered quickly in the UK. Don't see the point in spending silly money when this is is as good as any I've tried previously for other phones.

You are right. But I didn't care, since I was taking time to decide which Screen protector to choose! It is a nice fit for the phone though, very pleased with it

Check Martin Fields screen protector. It has a small circular protector specifically for the glass that houses the camera. It is not cheap ranging at around 20-26 dollars but at least you dont have to fidget around coming up with a circular protector for the camera.
Try eBay, I think they sell them there...

I'm using the case mate tough

I have the same case but in red, for the price you can't go wrong tbh. Feels smooth in your hand still, with a bit of grip and adding literally no bulk.

Looking for a good kick stand case

I am looking for a good kick stand case for my M7. I had this Aduro case for my Galaxy S3 and loved it because it was thin and came with a holster. I emailed Aduro and asked them if they were making on for the M7 and they did not reply. Has anyone else found one? I would think with my speakers on front there would be plenty of these but I haven't found one!

Seidio makes one. I have one and I think it's pretty nice. It looks good and the kickstand is pretty sturdy. The only downside is removing it. At first it seems impossible to do so, but you just gotta get used to gripping the bottom to pull the top off.

Thank you for your message very look forward to your update again

Hi! I bought this one from Handhelditems.com

Got this and I like it. Nice grip and comes with a holster.

I've had the casemate pop for my last 2 phones but it doesn't seem to be available yet for the One.. I'd seriously recommend to keep an eye out for it and buy it if possible.
Currently I'm using the genuine htc double dip hard case for day to day and the double dip flip case for when I'm gonna use my phone as a video player. It works really well for watching movies etc and is a nice case.

Speck makes a TPU kickstand case that can be used in both portrait and landscape. Its nice but was a little too thick for my liking though. So far, the best one I have found is the Seidio Surface w/kickstand. Its really thin and feels good in the hand. The only downside is that the kickstand is not flush with the body of the case so it creates a noticeable hump on the back of the case. There are also a bunch of those S-line TPU cases with kickstands going for pretty cheap on ebay. Sounds like you may want something a little more high quality though in which case I recommend the Seido or if you don't mind the extra bulk, the Speck case.

The one from HTC looks good but it's not out yet

I'm also hoping that Case-Mate will make a Pop for the One. I really like how the kickstand is flushed with the case and it can be place portrait or landscape. It looks pretty nice for the S4.

I keep looking for a kickstand case exactly like this one (super thin, adds some grip, supports both portrait and landscape use). Everything I find looks horribly thick or doesn't support both modes of use. Hope someone makes this design for the One soon...

I just ordered this one off Amazon to hold me over till get either the Seidio Surface or that yet to be release HTC one posted earlier. CoverON

So finally got it and it's a decent cheap case that was under $10. It seems to fit a tiny bit loose on the top and bottom and I seem to have a slight rise at the bottom of the hard plastic cover right below the bottom of the kickstand but it's not that bad and hardly noticeable. The power button is covered by the silicone but I tested it and my remote stills works perfect through it which surprised me. Thought I was going to have to cut a hole out. The power and volume buttons are slightly raised and make them easier to use. The charge port is cut perfectly for the charger cable to fit. The edge lip around the screen is high enough to protect the screen when laying flat.
And I don't know if it's just been because I've hardy put the phone down since I got it or the phone is a little too thin or long but my hand had been cramping. Didn't have that problem with the evo. I figured I just had to get use to it. I think though that maybe the one was too thin and adding some thickness feels a little better in the hand. Wonder if other people have dealt with this issue. Anyway here are some pics.

I have it and it's the only case I have for the One. I LOVE it. Perfect size cut outs for the power button, headphone port and usb port. Great protection and the volume buttons are easier to press blindly. The one thing that would make it better is if the stand could be used in portrait mode as well.

What do you mean by loose? Does it come off easily like the Incipio Frequency (personally I don't find that a problem) but if it falls off than yeah that's too loose!

I bought 2 of this ref for my girlfiriend and i, and the fit is perfect for both or us. No loose point. But i can confirm one thing despite of the minimalist design this protection is incredible. My deary let her One fall 2 times, once inside house, once in the street very badly...after removing this Belkin protection to check the phone, not a single mark on it. I even used the belkin screen protect which is really easy to apply, no air bubbles, and really protective. Best ever used.

Well I went out and got one at target but quickly returned it, it was a tight fight like the phone is secure but the sides, top and bottom stick out so it makes the phone look roundish, basically made my htc look look like a galaxy s4 lol, the top and bottom stick out too much to where u can see a gap between the lip and phone, it was a bummer because if it was a perfect fit the case is extremely nice looking on the silver one and probably the nicest tpu case I've come across, I hope there is a revision of this

running out of options... looking for a less bulky case than the uag yet still protective. i've pretty much given up my hopes of sgp making a neo hybrid case for us HTC One owners.. not feeling any love from them lol
hopefully someone will step up and create a quality fake neo hybrid for the HTC One or something :fingers-crossed:

I know I'm resurrecting an older thread, but I just wanted to chime in with my experience. I bought one of these cases on eBay, and I agree that the fit on the top and bottom leaves something to be desired. Other than that, I really like the case, so I got out my heat gun (not just a hairdryer), and heated up the top and bottom until they were warm enough to push in and reshape a little bit. That made the case fit a lot better. Be careful if any of you decide to do this, though. The grey part can melt if you get it hot enough.

Exact same problem with my Belkin Grip Sheer Matte case.

i think that this cover could be very nice ! but i should go for a 3mm because i think its the same for protection but the weight its better !

The case does add quite a bit of bulk to the phone. It makes it a lot wider than it needs to be, and there's sort of a sharp seam around the edge near the top. I stopped by a T-Mobile store today and picked up a Speck Candyshell Grip case for less than $20. It fits amazingly well, and really makes the fit of the Belkin look terrible, even after I got it to fit better with a heat gun.

Don't get the Zenus Case, causes flash bleed.

So was loving the new Zenus case I posted about in the cases thread, but I find it causes ruined pictures with flash due to bleed.
Example shots with the phone in, and out of the Zenus Cambridge case.

I think I'm going to go with a bumper frame of some kind, and a pouch. Front tempered glass and rear protector film. Seems best way. I think most thick rear casings affect the flash like this.

I bought this case off of eBay

It's the Pudini hard shell, there's no flash bleed, it fits the official Sony dock, but it's a little on the slippery side for me.

Using this Noreve case - can't show link due to forum rules (first forum I've encountered this, but meh), but a .com after the name works. My case is the vertical flip case.
Expensive, but worth it. Superb quality leather and premium feel in the hand. You'll see that the case has a major cut out missing for the camera, so no chance of flash problems. Also works in the Sony magnetic dock with the dock adapter removed.
Two variants available - wallet style and a folding case. Folding case has more traditional camera cut out, so don't know if it works the same re flash.

Liked the look of that case too, but does it have a clasp or magnet to keep the front cover closed? Thought it didn't, so rejected it and bought the Noreve. Had a Malmo case from Krusell which I sent back as only fabric and interference with flash, though slim and good magnetic closure.

Hi, I used Baseus case before
http://www.rakuten.co.id/shop/um/product/LTSNL39H-XY/
it caused flash bleed despite the case is really good, and i really love it, so if you like to take photo with flash don't buy it! though removing it is easy, but I just don't like to remove it everytime i take photo at night.
I am currently using s line cover case which doesn't cause flash bleed, wonder if Nillkin Frost shield will cause flash bleed?

Finally got the noreve and I'm not too impressed really.
There's no corner protection at all on three corners, and the front flip is very tight. That might loosen up, but I'm not convinced it's not due to the tempered glass protector I have on there adding another .4mm
Going to try some night time flash pictures, see what happens . That'll make the difference if I keep it or not.

Well, each to their own, I suppose. Hard to find a good case, as it's all personal preference.
I'm also using a tempered glass protector - a Brando. My front flip is not super tight at the top, but quite grippy. Prefer that to something loose. There is limited corner protection on two corners (side of the USB flaps), but lack of that sort of protection is not a major issue for me.

The killer for me again though, and I've just tested it, is the flash bounce/bleed with the case fitted.
It's not /quite/ as bad as other cases, but it's way too much to be acceptable, especially on such a premium priced product.
I'd be amazed if others aren't seeing this with the case.
I'm even more amazed and disappointed that almost every case on the market causes problems with the flash on the Z1, and no manufacturer mentions it. Don't they test these things? Are they just hoping they'll get enough sales from people who don't care?
I'm a grumpy cat.
Picture with, and without case

HI - just wondered if it is parctical to enlarge the lens hole in the case so the edges will be too far from the flash to reflect???

I've been thinking about trying this on a roxfit case. Got my dremel ready.
The noreve has a big cut out already though. So perhaps not.

Bumper cases for HTC 10?

Hello xda community! Does anybody know any bumper cases besides the rhynocase that only protects the side of the HTC 10? The reason why i was asking is because i ordered a slickwraps natural wood skin and i dont think my phone would fit in any of my current cases once the skin has been applied.

Yeah would love it if there was any option that wasn't 30+ dollars...bumper case would be awesome if available and cheap-ish

I have a Rhinoshield crash bumper on the way which I will be reviewing so keep an eye out for that

Nice, just looked online and I can't wait to hear what you have to say. If it's a winner, I'll be getting one ASAP
:Edit: Did you get the screen protector too or just the bumper? Because I'm also looking for one of those, all the rest seem to be....not so good, to say the least

Yes I am getting the screen protector too, they have asked me to review them on my YouTube channel so hopefully I will receive them next week

I'm just waiting for them to be put up on Amazon so I can get one (I have prime, so it'd be cheaper/faster shipping). If it goes up before your review I'm gonna pull the trigger, these things look awesome from the reviews I've seen

Thank You ,now my case search is over.
Before coming across this,I got what seemed to be the next best thing,as least as far as appearance of a bumper-only frame,the Poetic Affinity:

While the looks are there,I can't recommend it for those who remove their cases on any regular basis.The fit is way too snug,thought I was gonna either bend the phone,or,pop the display glass out.
I'm going to give the corners a small relief cut,see if that makes removal any easier.
Anyhoo,it'll be moot,the Rhino Shield Bumper is gonna be my daily driver case..............

tech21 Evo Check Case
May I suggest the tech21 Evo Check Case? We've been using these tech21 cases for years with not a single injury, and I am a tad clumsy.

I've been looking for something exactly like this. I'd wait for your review... but I can't hold out that long. I've gone ahead and ordered one.

Not exactly a bumper case & @ $40, ummm, no thank you, especially since there's nothing inherently different in this case from most on the market......

I received it today, the buttons are really stiff and hard to press, I cut them a little inside and now they are much easier to press. The bumper is also a little bit slippery but when I get my dbrand skin it should help. The screen protector has halo on the top and bottom and a tiny bit on the sides of it is even a mm off. I trimmed my one top and bottom but screwed it up and too much dust and lint stuck on the glue side so I gave up. The material the screen protector is made of attracts lint like crazy! I hope this helps

Okay, so no on the screen protector but so far so good on the bumper itself? After the internal cutting, that is

What kind of material is the bumper made of?
Is this a rigid frame,or,flexible TPU construction?

The Rhinoshield bumper is a rigid tpu much more than other bumpers I have used from them as it is thicker due to it covering the champers at the back. The fit is perfect and it keeps the back of the phone raised off the table. I do like it just wish I didn't need to cut the buttons internally but that's minor I guess. I have drop tested it from chest height onto a tiled floor and no issues.

Nice! Can't wait for the video review, it's finally up on Amazon so I can order once I see it and make sure it'll fit my needs.
Thanks for making all these reviews, I bet it's helped more than a few 10 owners

How does the case affect the fingerprint sensor? Does it get in the way much?
How does the bumper affect putting phone into ones pocket? Compared to a normal case

@ramheer have you been able to put the crash guard review up on youtube yet? If so, got a link?

i recieved the devilcase yesterday. i love it, except the cutout for the type C on the bottom isn't big enough for any of my Type C cables. -_-
now i've got to try and dremel the ends to fit, or buy new cables.
