Cases update

So has anyone bought a silicon like case yet. I have been hoping someone would have put up a review for a case by now. So if you have bought a case for the aria where did u get it? And how good is it? Brand-name? Price? Etc.
Thanks in advance!

Got a case from at&t store its great in quality. already droped a few times with no issues. I think its the htc brand one. It cost like 20 bucks but its tougher and firmer than most silicon style cases ive seen. Also not as sticky as most so it slides in your pocket easier. Although its still sticky when its 92 degrees out like it was today.

The Amzer silicone one provides good protection but is bulky and does not fit snuggly on the phone. I could imagine the phone slipping out of the case to indicate how loosely it fits.

When I picked mine up from the AT&T store, they had a pretty nice soft shell case for $25. It was nice looking, fit the phone well (I almost couldn't get the thing off), and looked like it would provide decent protection. I skipped on buying it, however, since the price seemed a bit steep.

i just went to the ATT store today and they had a glossy black (maybe gunmetal) hard case for the aria, it was 25 bucks and i didnt feel like spending that much when i could get the same online for cheaper, but it did look nice.
didnt get a chance to put it on the phone though.
also, it was in a package that said soft case.

I love how this phone feels like it already has a case on it! I haven't dropped the phone (yet, thankfully) but If i did i would be too distraught. I just want to be able to buy a replacement back cover (OEM) for less than $30.

yeah, it is the case that says HTC on the back, and its the only one they have. its horrible, and very troublesome to unlock the phone.

It's a nice hard-ish version of your typical silicone case. It's actually really good and sturdy and my only gripe is that it's a pain to unlock it.. so I use No Lock, which allows you to unlock the phone with any button...the optical touchpad has become my new best friend

AS ANYONE TRIED USING A HD MINI SILCON CASE, OR DOES ANYONE KNOW IF IT WILL FIT. aS WELL AS PRESSING THE UNLOCK BUTTON. damn caps lock sorry

The Amzer silicon case purchased actually says HD Mini on its packaging. It is quite a loose-fitting case. The one from AT&T, which is more of a plastic smoke translucent case, fits very snuggly with the only downside that it's $25. It says HTC on its back and the silver HTC logo of the phone itself shows through nicely.

Don't have the case anymore, but you can fit an index finger between the case and the phone without much effort.

I just bought my wife a case from pdair for the hd mini and it fits great. The have a number of good colors and its snug as a bug.
It's a very durable silicon skin. Comparable to the one from at&t but its actually easier to push the buttons with the pdair case. So its confirmed for me: hd mini cases work great for th aria.

Hum.. I'm thinking about picking one up. I wish Otterbox had a case for the Aria. I'm prone to dropping my phone, so I want something that will protect it from at least minor falls.

Cases/Covers

I have the Virgin Mobile Marvelc, and ordered one of the duo shields (I chose black/blue) recently. Really like the look of the duo shields, they're a little crazy with the colors but definitely unique. The ones I was looking at on Amazon have good reviews, and though they're listed as T-Mobile I didn't find anything to indicate they wouldn't fit my CDMA version. Will update once I receive the case!
Can't post links yet, but searching "wildfire s duo shield" on Amazon should give you a good idea.

That's one hell of a case

I'd love to see a review of this case as I'm thinking of getting one to save over the cost of the Otterbox case.

I recently got this case from Capdase. I like it quite a lot. It offers good grip, it is translucent and seems durable enough.

Video Review: Speck CandyShell Grip for HTC One X

Hi guys,
Got my hands on the CandyShell Grip case, from Speck at my local AT&T store. This is a one-piece hybrid style case that incorporates silicone and plastic in one. So while you get a sleeker case (since it's not 2 pieces) while obtaining the benefits of both materials. It's pretty simple to put on, and I love the look - but removing this case is very, very difficult.
Check out the full review below:

Damn that looks cool. Where to buy online with shipping to europe?

The case looks really cool and protective!
The downside (and the reason why I am not buying that one) is the volume-rocker and power button

I really like the look of the case! Interesting to see it on a white One X.
BTW, Speck's website claims that the case will be available in mid-June, while obviously they are available right now. Pretty annoying.
Can't post links but go to speckproducts.com and search for HTC One in the search box and you'll see.

This is on a white HTC one x

Thanks! As I thought, the case does looks much better on it.
Can you post a picture of the front of the phone too?
Did you buy the case from at&t?

I have that very case and I think it is great. I have no problems at all with the on/off and volume switches. They are firm but not difficult to press as the video seems to imply. Nor was it particularly difficult to remove if you start from the stretchy earphone jack area. I particularly like that the case is just thick enough to protect the camera lens when lying on its backside. And for me the look is strikingly good.

HTC One SPIGEN SGP Ultra Thin Air Review

If you are looking for an extremely thin and lightweight case for your HTC One, look no further. The Ultra Thin Air from SPIGEN is one of the slimmest cases I have ever used. Although the case might seem a little expensive initially, the included Ultra Crystal screen protector justifies the $20 price tag.

Hmmm. That's quite a good looking case. The reviews on Amazon are pretty awful though
How does the Ultra Crystal screen protector differ from the normal(cheap) ones?

I feel the same way. I need something that will protect it from small falls (like from my lap when i stand up) and scratches thats it! If i didnt care about resale value i would just go naked, but i always sell my phones to upgrade and need them in good shape!! #thincases4life!! lol
on topic for the thread though, and i have almost ordered the SGP thin air case multiple times. i just cant bring myself to pull the trigger with such horrible reviews on amazon. Now, i know there are a lot of idiots out there that write reviews sometimes, but there are just so many bad reviews its kinda hard to ignore.

I ordered these, just don't have them yet.

It should work.
The dual sim card HTC One is simply that, it has two sim card slots, as opposed to one for our variant.

Hey there, I've finally got my HTC One and I'm after a case that won't take away the sexy looks of the phone. This looked like an option but very bad reviews. A lot of people refer to the 0.3mm cases, unfortunately there aren't many in the UK but I've found one on eBay can someone check if it's the same?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331144103956
Also, please suggest other common/popular cases similar to this Spigen and the 0.3mm case please.

I believe this is what you're looking for? http://www.wirelessground.com/htc-one-m8-aluminum-metal-bumper-case-silver.html
From a quick look at it I think its just the bumper as you wanted. If it is then I might actually buy one myself, it sounds quite useful considering I literally just chipped the top edges of my phone... Wish I had this before my phone fell out of my pocket LOL.

Oh my bad, I was caught up in the moment and excited to have found one at all. I completely forgot you wanted TPU.
Also on the one you found for $1 on eBay I would highly advise against buying that. I recently bought a phone case with the top of the phone made EXACTLY like that and it was the poorest quality I have ever encountered in a product. I can tell it is on this one too because it looks the same and has the same cut out design along with hang down effect.

Taking a closer look at it, yes.
I used the one on Amazon myself on my M7. But went to use the Spigen Slim Armor on my M8. Even though it adds some weight and let's become the M8 a little bit larger, it just blends in with it perfectly and looks as if it is in fact a part of it.
