Ice View Case Review - HTC 10 Accessories

Hey guys, I finally got my Ice View case in this week and I thought I’d share some pictures. I’m quite excited about having it as it kind of exceeded my expectations. The design of the dot view case never really appealed to me and it always felt a bit gimmicky? I don’t know, I mostly got the Ice View because this is my first HTC and I wanted an official case to go with it but I think it might actually be so much more practical than I would have thought.
Anyway, here’s some shots of my new case:

I’ve got some notifications open here at the bottom, which you can scroll through and then select which one you want to open which is pretty cool. If you tap the clockface it will also show you how much battery you have left.
Another thing I really like is that you can use the camera with the case closed! It’s just a little thing but it is so surprisingly handy haha. You can also control your musicplayer through the frontcover.
The case itself is very simple, just the HTC logo on the back and matt black all over. It is quite a slim case, so not highly protective, but I prefer it that way. I’m sure for my day to day use of the phone it will be well protected. You can see the rubber construction in the picture below, it looks (and feels) sturdy enough for me. Before this case came in I was walking around with my HTC 10 unprotected for a week or two and it’s been fine so I’m not that worried about anything happening to it now
I hope you guys like these pictures or find them helpful! Have you guys got yours yet? How’re you finding it?

Quite nice but HTC is terrible in releasing. The site says available but won't add to cart and then email says not available. It's weird. I'm buying mine from a China wholesale site. They have it for 10$ and has a see-through back.

Can you share the URL?

I have had the DotView for M8 and M9 and now the Ice view....
If the M8 had the M9 ones brightness and front flap material/build it would have been perfect
If the M9 had the M8 or Ice View (so far) hinge build quality it would have been perfect
If the Ice View had games (I miss brick breaker lol) and the ability to change the theme/colors it would be perfect...
Have liked them all (before them all my phones were naked)...hopefully IceView evolves over time!

Yes, I know it's not official, I just wanted one with a clear back lol.
My official one arrived today from Amazon UK. Paid £30 for it, glad I had it pre-ordered now [emoji6]

And the Ali express one may fix the case not closing all the way issue that the actual one has.

Is anyone here with T-mobile? I am waiting for mine. I submitted the promotion and still waiting.

Nope, haven't received mine either. They have about 2 weeks left before the 8 weeks is up though so they should be arriving soon.

Verizon Ice View Case Sale
A year later, and Verizon has it on sale for $19.99. Likely can get it elsewhere that cheaply also.
Mine arrives in a few days.

I just ordered one of these. When I get it I'll let you guys know how it is. I can't wait to use this with N64oid and play some tony hawk!!!!.....lol
awesome!
Keep us posted on how things go!
Sorry, but that is ridiculous that that is 20 dollars. You can find one of those Bluetooth gamepads for that much, though I realize it can't be used with actual xoom games that use an onscreen d-pad.
If you could use this on a game like PewPew.... Id be in...
holy ****!!! we can finally buy these now! Ordering now!
definitely interested in a full review of this with the Xoom.
When i saw these a few months ago all I could think was:
This will be sick when i finally get a honeycomb tablet.
well, i got one now so....!

I ordered two of these a couple of months back for my GTablet. Works great on the Xoom, you will not be disappointed, though sometimes it takes a couple of tries to get it centered/setup the way you want. But I use mine daily.

They are made of plastic and are suprisingly sturdy for how much abuse I throw at them, I now use these every day.
on my Galaxy Tab for good measure, I hope they come out with a smaller variant for phones, I would buy them in a heartbeat.
i ordered better looking one from think geek. They are all metal and work great on my friends I pad. Once they get it tuesday ill take pics.

coincidentally, what's your "shipdate"? mine has dropped back to the 8th of July for some reason (not an issue) but they're not, yet marked as instock with TI? Hopefully not last minute build issues..
Anmyone have their hands on this yet? I am more than intrigued and was in the market for a new watch anyway
According to their facebook page they won't be shipping until August now.
That is really too bad...was hoping to start playing....they are still showing the 8th ship date...ah well
My order status doesn't even show a ship date and I never got a confirmation email. It just perpetually says "processing". Was hoping to start playing soon too. They put a couple of dev docs up on the metawatch.org development page, so you can start reading.
http://thisismynext.com/2011/07/20/metawatch-prototype-review/
these are supposed to ship today- has anyone gotten a confirmation yet?
They've had 2 delays. The latest was announced just a couple of days ago; the analog isn't shipping until late September now. The digital one may ship sooner, but last I heard it was "end of August". You can find them on Facebook and Twitter, occasionally you'll see an update.
thanks for the info- I'm following their twitter now. I would have thought they would put this info up on the TI store page where I bought it lol.
bummed about the delay but hopefully it will be worth the wait. if I really get 4-7 days uptime with the watch I will be pretty happy.
Anyone get theirs yet? How is it?
New date of shipping: sept 29 2011

to those who have received their watch- did you get an email confirming shipment or anything like that? very anxious to get mine, and I pre-ordered, but I haven't heard anything from them.
also- for those who are looking for the .apk, it looks like they have a link at http://www.metawatch.org/developers/

Leather case...

Looking for a leather case/holder for the GN (in the UK), not interested in any of the things that clip/slide on to the back of the phone
Just something to leather to slide the phone in and out of (no metal clips etc on it)...vertical or horizontal, matters not to me.
Also, what screen protector would people recommend?
Unlike nokia, samsung doesnt seem to make accessories like this for their phones themselves :|
Ta
And just for an example, here's what i use for my current phone, just slide it in and out with no clips or anything...just leather

Check this thread. There's some leather ones from fitbag (suede or normal leather)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1336319
If you can understand the German language a littele bit, it might be cheaper to deal directly with the fitBAG site. That 'll give you more choices as well. http://shop.fitbag.de/handytaschen-aus-echtleder.html

These guys do high quality stuff and ship internationally:

Not sure if they have a Nexus one yet but they're pretty quick and respond to email questions as well.

Norêve does'nt have one for the Galaxy Nexus yet, but you can subscribe to getting an email when it is available. They make beautiful cases, but expensive.
FitBag Does deliver in Europe. Don't expect too much of the microfiber lining though. It's nice, but won't clean your dirty screen. You still have to do that yourselve \\
Edit: I just received an email from Norêve and the leather (flip)case for the GN is available! http://www.noreve.com/langue/en/product/Samsung_Galaxy_Nexus_Tradition_leather_case.html

Slickwraps for the OPX!

Hi guys!
I just recently found out that Slickwraps have released skins for the OnePlus X
Has anyone purchased and applied them yet? If yes, could you please share your experience and possibly a few pictures of the phone with the skin?
Also anyone who has used Slickwraps skins on other phones are welcome to share their experience so I can buy a skin from Slickwraps too!
Thank you.

Yeah, would be nice to see some real-life photos. Just found this on the oneplus forum
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/slickwraps-skins-and-their-dirty-marketing-strategy.379210/
Oh no, this is making me even more anxious now! I'll probably wait for someone to purchase and then ask them about their experience. Thanks for letting me know about this!
I have just received the 'leather style' one for my x and the fit is .. yes I will say perfect. I managed to fit it almost as good too. With some evenings of running back of my nail up and down the edges, I can now hardly feel that it is on.
Without doubt it stops it being so slippy, but if I have one criticism, I wish either of the companys would produce a soft feel type product for the OPx. However, until that day this will do nicely.
This is the first time since ownership that I have not had my OPx in either of the official cases, both of which still fit nicely.
For the record I have often used various wraps on previous phones and NEVER use anything but the back piece.

Paid like $13 and something including international shipping. But with 4/20 promo code though... But check their site, they always have promotions. And it's totally worth it, no defects.

Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Pitaka Aramid/Kevlar Thin & Minimal Case [Pre-Order Discount]

Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Pitaka Aramid/Kevlar Thin & Minimal Case [Pre-Order Discount]
Probably the best case ever, for me i have to get it whenever i get any new devices, i got it for my pixel 2 xl, s8, s9+, Note 8, iPhone 7 plus, iPhone X & iPhone Xs Max.
and i have never change to any other brands. Right now it's a good time to get the case because of the pre-order discount as it's on the pricey side. Definitely must have for thin case lovers, one of the thinnest out there but build with quality.

I pre ordered mine while I was on the phone ordering my Note 10+.
I completely agree it's got to be the best thin fit case there is, even though it's a little pricey. It's not made for protection, but that's not what I'm looking for. I have one on my S10+ right now.
Nice great mind thinks alike
Good customer service. Messed up my order, they fixed and very friendly.
waiting for them to add more colors
Used your discount code and placed an order. Looks like shipping is a bit out though cause they said they will ship 15 days after the official delivery of the phone. Guess they are waiting to get to test the case on the real phones perhaps before they send them out to customers.
Yeah most likely that’s the case.
Previously that had alignment issues with the mic cut on during pixel 2 xl better slightly late than deliver early and dealing with returns cancelations
Still waiting for mine to arrive. I pre-ordered early August... Farking useless. I'll never buy from them again

Good for you. They were supposed to ship from their Australian warehouse, instead sent snail mail out of China
Useless company, terrible communication, poor customer service. Paypal dispute raised.
