Can anyone explain how flimsy/hard the flexishield is?
Im trying to find a case like this for the hero
ok well i cant find a link anywhere lol but my friend has it for his iphone. It was a rubberyish texture but it was a hard case, two pieces that slid over the phone (one top down, and the other piece bottom up).
anyone know of a case like this for the hero?
I'm using a rubbber casing its not that very thick and you have a good grip, a friend if mine had also a hard case for his iphone but it got very quick dirty and now he isn't using it. i used hard case on my xperia(still using) but if i comapere i like the rubber on.
you can find it on ebay and its not that exepsive i paid total 5 euro and thats very cheap. for the front i will suggest invicible shield. but i don't use anything for the front.
The one I bought for my Hero was a clear gel protector case that wraps around the case. It is not silicon but is flexible and waaaaaaay tougher than silicon. I dropped my phone by accident from about 5 feet onto concrete and it just bounce around without any damage at all. I got it off of ebay for like 5 bucks shipped. Just remember to get the gel and not silicon.
I bought from ebay (seller ID: sak.gaming) 2x FlexiShield. Shipped last 17th to my place in Malaysia. Bought it mainly because of favorable reviews I read from some sites
My vote goes to gel cases also. Cheap, durable and not as ugly as the silicone ones...
Hmm ok and what is the flexi shield like?

that was the one that i ought and i must say i like it so much. its really great

Lots of cases now.
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/cat/ToughGuard.htm?phone=HTC,Hero
sounds like the one you want
Oh and +1 for the flexi-shield
My clear flexishield is starting to get really dirty (quite noticeably). It's a great case and all but I tried cleaning it a number of times and it's still quite dirty. Rocking no case at the moment and no screen protector - hopefully some more third-party manufacturers churn out some more cases! (if only Incase weren't only dedicated to manufacturing accessories for Apple products - love their cases!)
Color HTC Hero
Do you have a black or white HTC Hero? Because I think the dirt wouldn't show as bad on a black HTC Hero, right?
White Hero. I haven't got any dirt on it either.. The case is the only thing that got dirty and I can't be bothered constantly cleaning the case.
I found this site, but i don't know about the quality of the products they are selling or is this site safe for online buying.

I came across this company on ebay. They're custom made leather cases with some really cool designs/styles.
I have no affiliation with this company, just thought I'd pass it on.
They even make a case that doubles as a wallet.

There's a few threads around here already that mention these cases.
A number of us have already ordered from them as well.
G1 Case used for the Touch HD
I was searching high and low for a case at the mall. Nothing would fit. That's what I get for getting this phonne and living in America. No regrets, of course. I love the phone. But, I did find that the HTC G1 slip case fits the TOuch HD perfectly! It's not bulky, and it slips into my pocket without a problem. The padding of the case seems to protect it quite well, and it is easy to get it in and out. The nice lady at T-Mobile gave it to me for free.
Yep, got one of these
I received mine on Saturday morning. The quality of workmanship is superb. It fits perfectly (as you'd expect) and my HD will slide slowly in or out under its own weight (after one day of being a little tight). The leathers look to be of high quality and the finish is excellent, including the sealing around the edges of the leather and the evenness/tidiness of the stitching, etc. Mine is brown Nappa leather outside and brown suede microfibre inside, with a low-profile belt loop on the back.
It's also very sturdy and I'm sure that my HD would survive a fall onto a hard floor if inside it.
It took 12 days from ordering to delivery (from Hong Kong to Surrey).
I know it needs to show itself to be sturdy over a few weeks, but so far, so good...
I usually am skeptical of buying from Chinese sellers on Ebay, but I might give this one a go. Anyone else tried them?
i bought this OEM case and it fits my hd fine

this is HTC Touch HD Leather Case (Book Type)
Krussel case works for me
I got my Krussel case from play.com for just £14.99 inc. delivery.
http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/4-/8142837/Krusell-Orbit-Flex-Case-For-HTC-Touch-HD/Product.html
The folding bit on most cases protects the screen but gets in the way when making calls or in general use. On the Krussel it's easily removable and I rarely use it, but it's there when needed.
@bigjee: a friend of mine and me bought this case a few weeks ago and i can say, theres no better one! the quality is excellent and its shipped really fast. the advantage is its choosable design! buy it, you won't be disappointed!
Last week I ordered this case for $3,48. Received it today and I think it's great! The HD clicks in perfectly and the case itself looks a lot more expensive than it is actually. It has been sewn with brown thread which gives it a little more 'hip' effect. The case has a magnetic lock and it has been finished pretty well, made by synthetic leather.
All buttons and stylus are still available, except for the headphone jacket.
Only thing is that when you are calling with the case on, it looks like you're calling with a very very big clamshell phone

I've also bought another case, this one. When it arrives i'll post some pictures of it too in this thread.

Its takes a couple of weeks to arrive but for around £2 you can't complain.

I have bought the Emily Fashion case - they are fantastic - less then £2 delivered from Hong Kong - arrived in 4 days with a free (if a tad crappy) screen protector. I cant fault the case it has a slightly rubberised feel and fits perfectly. I find all the leather case solutions a bit bulky this is much more minimalist whilst still looking good and protecting the sides and bottom of the phone from those annoying chips and scratches
yes i already received the emily case and it is great. Everyone loves the green color :d
Is emily case made from rubber material that attract dust? I have a rubber case. I have to remove and clean the case regularly. Even so, small scratches can be seen on the sides of the HD.
Hi All. Other than the link posted at the start, does anyone know where to get these or what to search for? I was hoping to find a white one. Searched all combo's of Emily Fashion Case and HTC Touch HD and got nowhere except back here!
Cheers
Dez
p.s. anyone looking to buy a white case, DO NOT get a noreve ivory leather case. The white leather one looks white. The white ivory one is a dull grey. Boo. Got a refund tho...
Seen lots of chat about silicon cases and leather pouches on the forum, but had wondered if anyone has tried PDair's Rubberized Hard Case for their TD2 yet?
I stumbled across it while browsing for silicon cases, but wouldn't mind something a bit sturdier. Actually looks like the same mold as used for the crystal case but in rubberized black plastic. And all for equivalent of about £10.50...

Looks exactly like this one I am using:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160344468071
(I am not the seller, this is not advertisement)
Best fitting case I know, best protection, it is a mix of hard case and silicone case
That does look pretty similar. Good to hear the fit is ok...was a little worried it would add a lot more bulk to the phone than a standard silicon case...any thoughts? Also if anyone has clearer pics available...
I tried three silicon cases before, but this one is my favourite.
My Girlfriend has just fitted this to her phone: Rubberized Hard case. (Mine is the phone on the left... yes, she got the same phone as me! )
Only just fitted it tonight but it feels OK and doesn't look too bad, looks like it would provide quite a lot of protection and seems really hard to open!
I'm not the ebay seller (I didn't link to a specific seller but to the search results page) She paid about £3 from Hong Kong.
Good call, have ordered too....worth a try at £3.25!
This case the same as the one mentiones in the first posts here. I can confirm all you said .
Thanks for those photos it looks better than I thought it would... I ordered black, white and red should get the black soon waiting on the other colours then I'll mix and match the cases
Just to add to all those who have ordered, there's one side of the case (on my g/f's its the right) that where the two sides clip together is a space for your fingernail to open the case.
On the other side it does not have this space and makes it really hard to open!
I just received mine today (black) and I have to say I love it so far. It seems to be very secure and it looks pretty nice in my opinion.
lol I got my black one today as well in the post. I like it alot as well. Would have preferred it didnt cover the area over the around front lens bit but thats a minor gripe otherwise it's a great fit and it's got more of a velvet feel to it which is nice! doesn't feel as chubby as it did before with a silicone case on it! Great price as well under £4 on ebay... pdair price is too steep for what it is! now I just await my white and red one
I bought this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260471207242
for $3.50, looks like the from pdair and considering that the price of the one from pdair is $18 this one is a best buy.
Received my different coloured versions of this case and have to say it makes the phone look a lot more eye catching! ... I'm sporting a black front with a white back on the phone at the moment
I have been using a cheap ebay soft silicon case since I got my x10
and so far, it's been GREAT! except for the aesthetic part....
it's ugly as hell on my phone..
but i'm so clumsy and i've dropped my phone so many times, on carpets, on pavement, on stairs, etc. and still nothing's broken, and there's not even a crack or a scratch..
i've never used a hard case before.. and i was wondering how they are like.. in terms of 'protecting the phone'
i'm kind of worried that when i put a hard case on and drop it by mistake, the case will come off (kinda like when you sometimes drop your cheap cell phones, the battery comes off)
or that it won't be as protective as my current silicon case...
i have a sensuous white phone.. and i'm looking at these cases

and
the first one protects the front as well, but the second one looks prettier..(imo)
if anyone owns above cases, please let me know what they are like and also whether i should go for the back cover or full hard case..
thank you!!
also, what colour should i go for? i'm leaning towards red on white..
but i also like pink-white, or white-white..
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/capdase-alumor-metal-case-sony-ericsson-xperia-x10-black-p24926.htm
I've dropped it on concrete with this on and not a problem. Aluminium on the outside, rubber on the inside with a rubber lip to hold the phone in place. Nice and snug.
Haha! The BACK case has the wrong cutting for the camera xD
i use a capdase soft jacket 2,and it is great.

um i think those are the holes for speakers lol
well i'm just wondering if anyones used them and if they have.. how they are in terms of protection...
i drop my phone a lot so i need a sturdy case
How about you stop being clumsy idiots and not drop your phone or just not buy good things.
I bought a black rubberized hard case just like the pink one you mentioned. It looks good in the pictures, but I really didn't like it. It ended up making the phone bulky, and the build quality was not perfect where one side was not finished completely and felt rough to the touch.
I then went with a TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) case instead, and I've been very satisfied with it. TPU plastic doesn't have that stickiness of silicone but is thin and flexible enough to keep the X10's shape. On eBay there are different colors to choose from and they seem to come with and without patterns. Just do a search for 'xperia x10 tpu'. I got a no-pattern smoke colored one for a few dollars (USD) with free shipping, and I think it's great.

Ok folks.. I have been looking for a back cover for my gtablet and I found one at NewEgg. It comes in both Black and Clear... for those of you that are interested its a polycarbinate material.... And is only 13.00, its suppose to have all the right cut outs and such....
The Company name is GreatShield Guardian Series Slim-Fit PolyCarbonate Hard Case for ViewSonic gTablet 10.1 Multi-Touchscreen Tablet
Found the same on buy.com for $10.95
I opted for a case with keyboard. Here :- http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004JF9N1O/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details
The case is hard leather the keyboard and stand are a bonus, I figured it may come it useful to have a keyboard close by. If you need a keyboard it's worth a little extra.
Why not to electroniccrap.com have a look.. There are many toies for Gtablet..
Did you buy this greatshield case? Thoughts?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
Just ordered mine today through Amazon as I wanted to get something else so I was able to get free shipping. Now just need to sit and wait for it..stated for delivery sometime next week. I'll post back with my thoughts.
Recieved this item.
Yes I did use GreatShield, I wanted it in black and it was only offered in clear thru Newegg. So I went to the Greatshield site and ordered in in black. And it arrived 5 days later, via USPS.
Works like a charm, all the cut outs are correct. NO shape edges and it pops right on. It was worth the wait and the price.
Well the Greatshield back cover arrived today. First impression wasn't what I was expecting...I was thinking it was more like the material like those Cruzerlite covers are made of for phones. This is actually just hard plastic with a painted black soft touch paint on it, kind of like the soft touch plastics found in many cars. Actually VZW sells sliding belt holsters which are pretty much the same concept as this cover. Either way its another layer on the back of the tablet that adds a little bit more thickness which I actually don't mind plus the soft touch paint gives it more grip.
All ports and physical buttons are exposed which is great but the only thing which could bother some is access to the micro sdcard slot/USB port cover is a little difficult. You will have to peel the back cover off slightly to get it opened if you access that slot and port. Oh getting this thing off is kind of a pain since the tablet is a little bigger than a phone. I find sitting on the couch while trying to get the cover off is better just incase things go flying.
Anyways on to the pictures (sorry for the blurry pictures, these were taken with my Droid X):

The extra grip must be nice.
I always worry when I one hand mine that it is going to slip out of my hands since it's kind of slick.
