Just waiting on this to arrive and I'll give a proper first impressions/review but thought I'd link to it as no one seems to have seen this yet! I've ordered mine from an eBay seller as although the HTC Store says 'free shipping' it's not (stupid Expansys) and saved a few £s

interested in your review especially in regards to durability. i ordered a similar design case from hong kong. great fit, super slim, and cheap, but the plastic seems to be developing some surface cracks (not cracked all the way through).
Really wondering about this case. Looking forward to the review!
Agreed the case looks nice

I'm going to assume it's similar to the one I had for my One X, which was good, but just waiting on the post as it should hopefully arrive today
It has arrived!
I'll get a proper review/photos up when I can but initial fitting is first class and it's VERY thin. Much nicer than the TPU case I had on until now
Bought this case too. Beautiful and smokey.

It's not actually "official", it just comes in official looking packaging if I'm not mistaken. Still...looks good.
Is it bulky? Or nice and thin

Mine IS 100% official, from HTC themselves (via eBay )
It's thin, yes, and doesn't cover the front corners of the phone but it fits perfectly - nothing bad about it IMO. Plus you get a screen protector in the pack as well (not applied it yet, though - again, job for the weekend)
I used the hardshell cover from HTC for my One X and it was the best case I ever used. Provides basic protection, but looks so good and all other One X owners were getting one after seeing my phone.
Will orders this hardshell cover as I think it will be similar to the One X's.
Hope someone would post pictures of it soon.

It's just like the One X one was, I actually think it's a bit thinner. Meant to get some photos over the weekend but have been mad busy but will try this evening
How is the material? Is it hard plastic that scratches easily?
It's hard, yes, but I've not scratched it yet (but then again I only have my phone in my pocket so nothing can scratch it)
If you've seen any of the other HTC hard shell's you'll know what it's like
I've had one of these for a few weeks, few things of note:
My HTC logo doesnt line up 100% perfect with the phones logo.
Find so much dirt and pocket lint behind the case, having to take it out and clean the phone every couple of days.
Baring that, great case, got mine for £12 posted on ebay on the ebay deals section. Screen protector seems good quality too but I havent bothered to put it on yet

It was the only positive thing about my Vibrant. I have a very disappointing Seidio case on my MT4G that was waiting on an Otterbox but will soon be covered in a Trident.

Okay, this is definitely the best case I've ever had (Other MT4G cases I've had are: silicone, black rubberized hard case, and clear hard case). It does add some bulk, however. The material is very high quality and sturdy. There is NO creaking or anything like that. The video right above pretty much shows you everything about it, so I won't go into those details because it is much more effective to actually see it. If I can get a picture of my phone next to another MT4G without a case, I will post that. While it does add some thickness, you can't get true protection like this without a little thickness. Overall, it is a very high quality case, and I am happy with it. If you have any questions, just ask, and I will answer them for you.
Does this case like to collect dust that's all I need to know before I order it

Ordered on ePay from the Oregon seller. It arrived at my doorstep here in the SE in 2 days. Nice case - the design is well thought out and most of all, IT FITS! I kept the Realook and it took a minute or two to install. Looking through their current product offering, I see holsters and I am hopeful one will follow soon for this case.

How hard is the case to take off? I was planning on charging batteries via external charger.
- Frank
I think the case is sold out for now.
Also, the case is not hard to take off at all. I did it yesterday while I was driving a manual car in traffic on the highway. Lol...
And one side note, I do notice that the outer silicone case around the edges of the phone does attract some lint after being in a linty pocket, but I love the case overall.
Just got my yellow and black one its awesome I order mines directly from the site http://www.tridenteer.com/categories/HTC-myTouch-4G/Cyclops-Series-by-Trident-Case/

too bad it doesn't come with the kickstand. I'll stick with the one i got from tmobile now. The kickstand is absolutely invaluable.
Oh hell... I just watch the video. Nice. The deal maker for me was finally finding a quality screen protector that covers the entire front side. I also like the fact that the hard case is easy to take off.
Buying this now. Amazon Prime....
Edit: Screw Amazon on this one. "Takes two to three weeks to ship" - yet they have it on Prime. Will just buy directly from the makers.
Does the screen protector effect the proximity sensor? I've had the proximity sensor lock up the phone from being able to hang up on some screen protectors.

I bought one from Amazon and it's "okay" to say the least i much prefer the one i got directly from T-mobile. but they are nice. but i work in the Automotive industry so i need something that i can put down on a tool box or a stainless steel top and not worry about it scratching up my battery door.
i guess it's like Epik for Blackberries.

I have the hard plastic case with the kickstand made on the back. I know they are expensive but i have a 14mth old daughter and it helps to keep her quite when we go out. put on Sponge Bob or similar put the phone out of reach and she is a quite as a church mouse.
i'm gonna pop for it. at 5 bucks flat its probably the best deal for the TPU style cases. since TPU i think requires like 4 dollar shipping so it comes out to like around 10 bucks. and i do like the 2 tone flat with gloss cause the flat parts are for grip.
This case is a must order...the pictures do not give it justice..i will post video in a little bit...

I just ordered one, what's your opinion on it?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
so far its pretty good. the styling is pretty god and the sides are dimpled gripping. the rear is flat black which makes it have a contrasted look with the flat and gloss. the power button is a bit hard to press but its not too ridiculous. though the one thing is normally when you plugged in your usb to charge you always got a noticeable click like it was fully setting into place. now because of the case you kinda have to jam it into the opening so it stays cause the case adds about 1-2 mm of fatness. most likely its cause of the size of the usb head. other than that i'm very pleased. comes from Pasadena, CA so if your in socal it'll come to you with-in a day. and for 5.10$ shipped you cant really get anything better.

On their eu site it shows the case and I like what I see. Looked around and it appears that its coming soon. I was wondering if anyone knew about availability? I have an inquiry in and will report back if it hasn't already been dug up and reported here.
edit... I should have put a link here, my bad. Here is a link to the goods. ---> http://www.case-mate.eu.com/samsung-galaxy-s-2-tough-case-black.html
I don't have any news but thanks for sharing that link. I've been looking to see if Case-Mate was preparing any cases yet for the SG2.
Have you had one previously? I'm running a siedio case right now that I really like. It is a hard rubbery feeling outside that gives some grip but it doesn't collect lint or get stuck in pockets. This is what I'm looking for.
barely there case is out..2 sellers on ebay.uk and amazon uk too..
but i can not find the other hard case

Yes I did. I liked it, nice looking, not too thick and had a nice solid feel to it when you grasped the phone. It slide in and out pretty easily and didn't pick up stuff from my pockets.

I'm going to try out the Barely There case for now... I've had those before too. Not nearly as protective but I'd rather try one of these out than some of the odd stuff we are seeing so far.
I ordered some gel cases from Deal Extreme that still haven't shown up yet - a little worried using my SGS II without a case (it's a bit slippery). I like the look of the Case-Mate barely there or Safe Skin - will pick one up in London week after next (I'm sure CPWH will have them...)
Case-mate has responded to my email this morning. They expect to have them available to the public in two weeks.
Hi,
I always use the case-mate tough case on a of my phones, andhave one on pre order from mobile den, cpwh will bedding then for around £25 and the barely there will be much cheaper but to me does not provide grip or good protection.

I purchased this http://www.case-mate.eu.com/samsung-galaxy-s-2-gelli-case-clear.html and the screen protector that shipped with it is totally the wrong size and has no hole for the home button. it is too short and too narrow almost a galaxy s screen protector with no hole for the home button. I checked 3 different carphone warehouse and they are all the same. I emailed case mate and was told they knew the screen protector didn't fit but just use it anyway.
Really disappointed in the company. No reason at all this should be sold like this. The case is very nice however but at £13 its not cheap if you have no screen protector
Dont know if this will be the same just to let you know
I dont use screen protectors, hate em. Nevertheless I don't like the sound of an outfit shipping a piece that to my mind would be useless and not what was represented. What is your feelings on the fit of the case itself in regards to the cut outs and so on? Overall quality? Value?
This is now available on amazon uk, I have one on the way so I will post up with my impressions after I have it in hand.

Ballistic SG Case for T-Mobile
I just saw it on eBay and it looks like a great case for protection.
Here is the company's site with the standard S2. They haven't added our phones yet to their site.
http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s2-ballistic-shell-gel-sg-series-case
Just recieved it today. I like the way it looks but it has a couple of drawbacks.
Pros:
1) Pushing the volume or power button is the best I have seen yet for the T-Mobile GS2 cases. Very fluid just like there isnt a case and the buttons make the natural noise that they make just like not using a case.
2) Seems to be the best protection I have seen for the GS2. I think it will handle a drop very easily.
3) I dont have a screen protector but the way this is designed I dont see how this case would cause any issues like the D30 cases do due to a tight fit. Its somewhat loose and should not cause the corners of a screen protector to lift up.
4) Has a great feel to it and adds some weight to the phone.
5) Protects the back camera perfectly.
6) It does add some thickness to the phone but this is because the phone is extra protected. I would say it is about 1.5x to 1.75x as thick as the phone without a case on it.
Cons:
1) The first layer is rubber and due to this fact it has a few issues.
2) Collects lint easily from your pocket.
3) Can be difficult at times to put in and out of your pocket due to the rubber.
By far though this is the best case I have had for a phone. I own a couple of TPU cases for the T-Mobile GS2 and a D30. It makes the D30 look like junk even though the D30 is a great basic case.It has some drawbacks but the pros outweigh the cons. I definitively recommend this case to anyone that wants the ultimate protection for their phone and doesnt mind cleaning the lint off everyonce in a while. If you like my review please give me a thanks.
just saw one too. didnt kno that they started to make them yet. their a little bulky for my line of work. and since im a student im not really in the situations where is need THAT Much protection....but do a review if you get one.
I ordered one. As soon as it comes in I will post pics.

I have to say yes... I'll take measurement tmrw but the corners are thicker than all of it. Its still not bad. Fits in my pocket n like how it feels in my hand ... I like the texture of back compared to the d3o.
To be fair, the rubber corners will pick up lint just like vibrant otter box. This thing is maximum protection...

Thanks, got one on order. This will be my 4th and hopefully final case for this phone, I am a fan of otterbox so I think I will like it. I started with the black bodyglove from tmobile, not a bad case but a pain in the ass to take of so I got one of the clear TPU cases from ebay and its a great case. And then the D30 came out so I exchanged the bodyglove for it, had to take it back because it fit like crap, the next one fit 95% better but is still uneven around the edges and for a $25.00 piece of rubber it should be perfect like the $7.00 one from ebay.
The first D30 that I got was from T-Mobile. That one fit perfectly, just didn't like the way how the button press felt. So then I also got a TPU case from eBay. Next thing T-Mobile gave out the cases so I picked it up, returned the original one I bought at T-Mobile store, but then the one I got from T-Mobile online, it fit 95% and was bubbling up my Realook. I was hoping for a Seidio case to come first but since I've heard good things about Ballistic case, I gave it a shot. Waiting for it to come in the mail now.

Oh yeah, that was the other thing, the buttons. Volume not too bad, power button was a PITA on the D30.
Got the case today and its awesome.
MrThaibox23 has put a youtube video clip reviewing the Official HTC One Genuine Hard Shell Case with Cover and he certainly does not recommend it. Unhappy with fit and poor quality and bad value for money.
Still waiting for my HTC One and am reluctant to cover the beauty of the design so the questions are:
Cover it with a case Yes / No
Recommend or warn us off any case you bought.
Many thanks and over to you.
I actually like the case and im using it right now
I got the case free from Vodafone with the HTC One and I think it's pretty good, for a free case that is.

It fits the phone perfectly and states for the HTC One on the box (ruling out them sending me the wrong case) and I've definitely fit the case correctly (ruling out stupidity).

Do you Talk about the flip case or hardshell?
I had this microphone Problem with the flip case and solved it by making the hole for the microphone on the case bigger.
Not just me then, yes I refer to the flip case. Not the sort of quality you expect from a 'premium' official case. If I wasn't amazingly impressed with the phone I'd be letting rip at HTC!
Its a shame the screen wouldn't come on as you flip the case over though!
The flip case is okay, poor quality though.
I also got the official flip case for free with my phone. I was really disappointed with it. OK I got it for free but seriously HTC... Couldn't they make a decent official case for their incredibly beautiful save the company flagship phone. They should have used proper leather and included some magnets to keep it closed and wake the screen when opened like Samsung do with their case.

My flip case is literally falling apart at the seams. Don't pay for this what ever you do.

I also got the case free from Vodafone and couldn't believe that the hole for the mic does not line meaning nobody can hear me when I'm using the case, has nobody else experienced this???
It fits the phone perfectly and states for the HTC One on the box (ruling out them sending me the wrong case) and I've definitely fit the case correctly (ruling out stupidity).

Yup had this problem as well. I was so confused when people told me they couldn't hear me.
Whilst a terrible case it's better than what I got free with the last 3 phones.
But if I had paid cash for it I would not be terribly pleased.

Yeah. They obviously didn't have any kind of durability testing. Tip... Don't believe everything you read in reviews

i have the double dip hard shell case on fine and find the fit is quite loose on the phone, the other thing that really bugs me is that the volume buttons dont work correctly. i have found that there is very little tactile feedback and that you then tend to press the buttons harder which then causes the area of the case around the buttons to miss shape..very poor which is a shame as i actually really like the overall look etc of it.
Anyone else found this or could i just have a bad case?
I think I'll get hard shell case.

This is a fantastic phone so get any reasonable case for now until better 3rd party cases become available. I prefer the hard case over the HTC flip case.

i liked the hard case when i first saw it, but now i just think its cheap and nasty looking.
have a look at nillkin case. im using it now and posted pics in the "cases and covers" thread near the end
The flip case is great, the only down side is that the microphone hole in the case doesn't line up 100% of the time and when making calls sometimes I have to take the phone out of the case for the person to hear me

Yes that is correct
I would get the leather pouch from www.pdair.com, that way, the magnificent design of the phone will be visible every time I pull out the phone out from the pouch =)

My mate called me on his the other day, I kept telling him I couldnt hear him.
It turned out to be the HTC official flip case hole, as per other posts on here!
Luckily mine was free, but he paid £24 for it!! It's going back....
Personally if you look the hole on the outside is ok, but it tapers inwards and is like the tip of a needle inside, you could easily make it larger with a paperclip or jewellers screwdriver.
Although for £24, you shouldnt have to.
