Having lost my Kaiser in a cab *twice* using a holster with just a belt clip (one slid off, the other snapped) I was very happy to find a case for it that had solid belt loops. I used it for my Raphael which I never lost but because the Raphael was a little thinner I couldn't really feel the vibration. But it was a good case. So I get the Rhodium and it doesn't fit in this thing so I set out to try to track one down -- first Apple, then Radio Shack, AT&T, Best Buy; no luck. And the ones they did have minus the loops were like thirty bucks. Yeah right! I live in Manhattan by the way.
Finally yesterday I found one of those nice African men who sell knockoff handbags and cheap sunglasses (and cell phone cases...) and asked him what he could do for me and he produced this which fit perfectly, asked for $7. I could have gotten him down to $5 but I was so psyched that I didn't haggle with him. The holster has no apparent identification but if one of you has a link for this case that I recommend that might be helpful here. Or if any of you really want this and can't find it I'll buy a couple more from this guy. I even took a picture for you:

There's no way any of you have a better holster but if you think you do, which you don't (at least not as reasonably priced), here's the official place for you to share hot holster pictures.

Yes i have a caselogic that's "real leather" it cost $15..Very true i don't have to remove my entire belt to get it off lamo. The one clip it has is hard enough to take off my belt. ....It looks exactly like yours but of course that is the whole intent of knock offs.....I prefer real leather over pleather or what ever material that is ...Sorry my friend.... it is not real leather lol But i am not hear to bash you but to congratulate you on a case of your liking from a "African American" lol By the way....they are just African "Nigerian"......

Ebay.com is your friend. I seen the same one go for $1-$3
Still not better then EASECASE IMO, but for that price it does look good. The guy above me said eBay? Hmm, time to search...Lol
If I find it off eBay then I can have it as a backup case.
i bought the exact same one on ebay for the exact same reason.

Thanks for that price, I can't go wrong. Ordering one now!
I hate cheap leather cases. Most have exposed corners like that and fall apart quickly.
That one looks like the one I purchased several months ago:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4058856&postcount=71
I have purchased another one that just as decent and cheap too. I will post pics when I get my camera back from a friend.
yo my man, you may consider buying a new belt as well.
Found a similar awesome leather case with an absolute PERFECT fit at my local flea market for $4.95!
I was quite upset when I got my Tilt 2 and it came with everything but an extra stylus, carrying case, and headphones.
The belt holster posted earlier seems like a very good price for a solution, but I was browsing around and found this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-OEM-HTC-AT-T-Tilt-2-Seude-Leather-Pouch-Case-Clip_W0QQitemZ150382865808QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item2303846d90
it's 5 dollars more unfortunately but it's OEM . The things I do just to have a brand, sigh!

I bought the same case as in the original first post (buying them for 2 years as I lost my samsung D600 phone one week after buying it due to no belt loops) and the case I received was the one in the post I am quoting now. OEM, yes, but tilt 2 will not fit. I traded the HTC OEM case for my ice case I have now. Total investment 8-10 bucks.
BTW, the baddass cheap case is cheap and more like a disposable case as the belt loops rip and the corners wear. Good price for a 3-4 month case though. I stock up when I find them that cheap.
im using my old mogul case and it fits perfectly. 0 dollars.
I bought almost the exact same case from a local mall kiosk. Works wonderfully (much smaller then the HTC Case I used to use for my HD). Also my body glove has been shelved as well.

Anyone recommend a good case that doesnt bloat the phone out but is still a good case that you can use the phone without having to remove it from the case. Did that make sense?? not sure
Anyway there doesnt seem to be many cases available yet so i guess wizard users can recommend a manufacturer and style that i can keep an eye out for to see if they release a TyTn case
Cheers
Chris
iPod socks
I am using an ipod sock to protect my TyTN. It fits perfectly inside and I can put it on my pocket. IMHO the shipped leather case with magnets bloats the phone too much and I can't put it on my pocket, also I don't like magnets near my device

Cute socks!
I must say that the leather case that came with the TyTN is probably the best bundled case I've ever had. I'm still going to replace it for all-sides protection, but at least I can feel good about using it in the meantime....
I don't think its real leather. more like faux leather to me. doesn't have that nice smell to it.
I sent an email to SENA to ask if they will be making a case for the TyTN soon. They replied that if the TyTN becomes popular in the US, they will consider it!
I have one from them for the BA and it is beautifully made.
Proporta are doing a flip and book case for the TyTn HERE.
Unfortunately there's no image. But 4winmobile have a review and loads of piuctures of the same case for the Wizard HERE
I would think it'd be the same bar slightly different sizing.
Noreve should be releasing one today ... personally I think it will slip.
I have one of theirs for my Archos 5100 which is superb. My only concern is that their 9100 case and Krussells have not protection for the bottom corners.
The second generation 9100 case from Piel Frama (Expansys rebrand as Chairmans) was superb and did protect the whole device. Piel Frama tell me they are waiting for a device to use to design the case.
Fingers crossed.
Paul.
Best case
I'm using the belt clip leather case that I used to use with my Treo 650.
This is an old model that had no magnets (that cause troube) with credit cards and so.
And it fit's just right.
I don't know if this is still available, i tried to find it on the palm's site and I cousd not find it.
I don't mind the leather case somewhat bloating out, however, I am bias to a leather case with the "opening/flap" on the vertical topside rather than on the horizontal long side. This is because as I place the phone back in the horizontal case, the slider opens more often causing the slider to get "loose" as time draws by. However, i do require a swivel mechanism on the leather case because i prefer it to be against my belt in a horizontal position while having the opening/flap on the vertical end. Unfortunately, the swivel mechanism breaks easily after 3-4 months of use and i wish there was a horizontal case with a permanent clip and a vertical end opening/flap.
I have a wizard and I bought a Krusell Cabriolet. I absolutely love it because it allows me quick access to my device and doesn't weigh much and isn't bulky.
I ummed and aaahed about a case for a long time because none on the market could properly handle the keyboard. Eventually I got tired of waiting and even though I have to remove the Wizard from my Cabriolet to use the keyboard, this only takes a few seconds. There is still nothing on the market that handles the keyboard, so don't hold your breath.
I've now also ordered the carholdikit accessory so I can clip it into my car quickly and use my wizard with a GPS for sat nav.
If you want a low profile case which provides the minimum of protection yet still gives you access, this is the best one around.
I can't be sure it will fit the TyTn, but because the tytn is longer, not wider, it should be OK. Also, the cabriolet has no protection on the top, so out of the cases reviewed below, it's the most likely to suit a TyTn.

Currently using my old P900 case which is the Krusell 'Dynamic' model, fits the phone perfectly but the button holes are in the wrong places so I have to take it out of the case to use it - if only Krusell would make a version for the TyTn.
Looking for an alternative I found this one at IDS in Hong Kong which looks quite good.
At $25.00 USD including free delivery I thought I'd give it a try, it should arrive later this week.
They also do a Gel Skin just in case thats what anyone's looking for...
Update:
I received the case and have posted a more in depth review here

Thanks for that. Giving both of these a try (ordering as we speak), as they are exactly what I've been waiting for.
Nice! I've just ordered a gel skin for my TyTN 8)
Yeah that IDS one looks brilliant. Let us know how you get on with it, as i'll probably order one on your reviews.
If you want to go vertical, the RIM brand Leather Swivel Holster for 8700 Blackberry Series fits and works very well with the TyTN. I had been using it with the S200 for awhile. With the S200 it was little loose, but not too much so. With the TyTN it fits like it was custom made for it. I would point out that mine is well broken in from use. The cover wraps over the top of the unit and attaches with a very secure magnetic snap. I like the vertical case as it takes less space up on your belt. There is a ratcheting swivel that lets the unit move on your belt as needed but does not spin freely.
It is very well made and lined in some type of soft velvet like material. It holds the TyTN very securely. To take it out of the case, you can either give a slight push up from the open corners on the bottom of the case or you can take it out by grabbing it on the top at the two cutouts on both sides of the case. It has a well constructed built-in belt clip that securely will hold it on you belt without a lot of worry about falling off. It is constructed in a manner that keeps the case close to your belt and doesn't stickout excessively as may of the swivel cases do.
I got the case at an airport shop but found this link where it is on sale right now for $21.99 not including shipping:
http://www.blackberrysource.com/store/catalog.asp?item=285
I have had a lot of cases over the years including some high end models. For the money, I consider this to be one of the best that I have purchased.

God those are ugly. Why would one go out of ones way to buy a beautiful device and the stick that on it?
what would you guys recommend as a decent protective yet slimline case for this device, preferably allow you to use the device whilst it's in the case. I've ordered the D2 but am deciding on what case to get

Invisishield
Wouldn't invisishield still require a case? It looks like the screen would still be very susceptible to dings, etc. that would kill the handwriting recognition.
I ended up ordering this:
http://www.blueunplugged.com/p.aspx?p=138216
and one of the silicone skins above. Got the leather case on me now. Pretty nice and a tight fit. Right side of it covers the end call button a bit but other than that it's all right. Would prefer if the leather was a bit thinner on the screen as it feels like it's recessed now. Regardless of that though I can still hit everything I want to on the screen so that's fine. The flip lid is hard and solid (must have thick card or something in it) so the screen is protected easily when it's shut. Also comes with space for memory cards and other plastic cards. Supplied with a removable screw on belt clip too! Doesn't add much bulk or weight to the phone and slips in nicely into my jeans pockets.
The best silicon cases are made by Capdase. I got my case for my HD a month ago. I checked, they don't have any yet but I am sure it will be available soon. What I will do is get a cheap replacement for now and wait for Capdase to come out with one. The one I have is non slippary and dust proof and and and it slips into my pocket nicely. Other silicon cases sticks to cloths and it's hard to get out of your pocket. It's not cheap, mine cost around $80 HKD which is around 6.50 GBP or 8 Euros. Hope this helps.

Nope.. I had one protecting my Diamond for 7 months... didnt effect ANYTHING. I dropped it a few times as well.
The IS is indeed very good
I have only seen it on a number if iPhones but it is as strong as they claim
We even tried the compass/knife test and scratched the hell out of it...or so we thought
It's very durable and did not damage the phone at all - Only downside is by the time it comes out (unless it is already), we'll all probably have a few light markings on it - no matter how well we keep it.
Something to note is the TD1 had a horrible procedure to apply it because of its curves/or lack of them ... I feel the TD2 will be much easier but lets see
Received my silicone case from xell_uk today ordered on the 30th April. Have to say it's a lot better than I thought it would be! Fits the D2 perfectly. Nice sized cut outs so you can easily access the ports and stylus and is snug and secure. Buttons are slightly more accessable as well compared to the other leather case I ordered. Device does look quite neat in this jacket too!

and I bought it with other 2 color (b&w) cost 90 NTD. (ABOUT 2~3 USD)

I've ordered my IS. Should arrive in a few days. http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield...es-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php
I don't get it. Isn't the screen the most important part of the device? Why protect the back and sides only?
Can someone recommend a solution to this?
FYI all: I got the silicone case, and it DOESN'T fit perfectly around the device. On the left the case is a bit loose, so you can see the device peeking... this can be seen in pictures of the silicone casing everywhere. So be aware...
Hi,
Does anyone know where to get those thin leather pouchs for Diamond2? The ones that you only have to slip the phone inside ...

Cheers

I just recieved one of the ones in your top photo for my diamond 2 today from a guy in china on ebay, it took about a week to arrive but was a bargain at under £6 delivered.
more can be found here (igonore the ones for the Touch HD):
http://phones.shop.ebay.co.uk/items...8028QQ_ssnZtmiplusQQ_trksidZp3286Q2ec0Q2em282
the case is HTC branded and fits perfectly (no supprise)
I'll take some photos of it this evening.
Hi,
Thanks for your replies
Browsing ebay I've found two alternatives:
The one you pointed out:
Link
Which has some kind of strap to hold the device inside. Dunno how this works though, could you care to provide a brief explanation besides the pics?
Or another one:
Link
Which also states that is HTC original but seems a bit more robust, and the overall built quality seems better, but doesn't have anything to keep the device inside the pouch.
I will order one of these two, just have to decide which one lol
from just looking at those 2 photos i believe they're exactly the same case.
the strap you mention is only on one end and prevents the phone sliding right the way out when you slide it in. the strap material reminds me of a seatbelt but is much thinner. it is also shown on the 2nd photo above, its the lighter grey coloured bit in the end of the case shown. the inner lining of mine is soft felt which i believe is the same as the inner materia shown in the last photo above.
hope this helps!

Hi,
I order one today, it's the same as your 1st photo, and yes it has the HTC word on it.
See this link---> http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....57733&_sacat=See-All-Categories&_fvi=1&_rdc=1
i've upped some photos of the case and torres.sis and I have bought... photo 16 onwards in this set.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/[email protected]/sets/72157621095550158/
Ahhh finally I realized that the pouch is open on both sides
My first thought was that it was open on only one side and with the strap on the other one. Thats why I didn't get how the strap was supposed to work.
Thanks GavinAshford for the pics. I will order one of these for my TD2. £5.47 is quite a bargain from my pov
Yep, that's the point of the strap indeed. You can slide your phone inside from either end of the pouch.
I had it inside my phone original box and it's really usefull, doesn't make a big bulge in your pocket (as most of the pouch do), protects perfectly the phone and is very light.

Leather slip
I have one of these pouches and must say that it is quite good for the money. The strap is looped around the inside (assuming that mine is the same as the ones pictured) and allows the phone to be pulled out using the strap, and as you slide the phone back in the strap is pulled tight and secures the phone in place.
For £6 it seems like a bargain.
not sure for europe side but in Singapore, the pouch is part of the sales package.
got it with the sales package...
its really slim and comfortable to carry the device in pocket.

I've order it July 9 at the afternoon (in Portugal), and it arrived July 15 in the morning.
For me it was very fast, considering that I'm on the other side of the planet. lol
6 normal days or better 4 business days....
Was sent via Air Mail.
I also order this two products from diferent sellers today:
Car Holder: Ebay Link
Car Charger (HTC Original): Ebay Link
Thanks for the reply. I'm from Portugal as well .
Ordered mine on July 12 so i guess I will have to wait a bit more.
I also ordered a car holder but it's for the vent not for the windshield.

I've asked HTC via e-mail and they told me that for now there are not any official pouch like this for Diamond 2
I received my Sena Ultraslim Leather Pouch today. I was looking for a plain slipcover to put my Touch Pro 2 into. I wasn't looking for something big and bulky and protective. I wanted something thin and light with minimal bulk to keep the lint and key scratches off my TP2 while it's in my pocket. Comes in a plain box with a soft cotton draw string case and a note card with instructions on how to remove it from the case as well as a warning stating that as a real leather product it would be tight at first and will loosen up with use. It passes the leather smell test and the leather is soft and supple and feels nice.

Boy were the right about the tight fit. Very first use it was quite tight and very difficult to get the Rhodium into and out of the case. I have a Best SKins Ever on the front and rear of my phone. If you've never used one of these skins it's different then most in that it has a slightly rubbery texture. The added grip of the BSE and extra thickness I'm sure adds to the difficulty of removing the phone. After just an hour with the case it has already loosened up a little. It's still not easy to get the phone in and out of the case but it is definitely much easier already then the first time I used it. Hopefully the trend will continue.
You can see the case adds very little bulk to the phone. It's much thinner and less bulky then the OEM case that came with my phone. The stitching seems well done, even and straight. The materials feel like quality materials. Only complain on the fit and finish is how the corners don't quite contour to the shape of the phone. It's just a very minor quibble. All in all I'm quite happy with my purchase. I'll be sure to update this after some extended usage after I get to learn how it is to use every day.
Thanks for posting these pictures. You are right; the corners could fit a little tighter with a larger radius. I have a feeling that it would look much better as the leather stretches a little. Your TP2 looks like it is not sitting all the way to the bottom yet.
BTW. Your OEM case does not look bad at all. Too bad that my Tilt 2 did not come with any case.
Great review !
Very useful and nice pics
Thanks a lot
After only one day of use and the case has already conformed to the shape of my TP2 and is much easier to get it in and out of. Taking the phone out now is really easy, grab the phone by the side and push up from the bottom (detailed in the instructions) gets it half way out and you grab the case and pull it off. Hopefully it will hold up to long term use. It's pretty much exactly what I wanted for my phone. Much more pocket friendly then the HTC OEM case.
Thanks for the review and pics, i'm thinking of getting one of these posted to the UK so a good review is very much appreciated!
Cheers
i ordered the tan one friday night...cant wait for it !!!! looks much better than the one that came with it.
Thanks so much for the review and pics. Off to order one!

this is what I get...
So I think I know what happened... there was a brief period where their site was down (domain renewal) and that is apparently the time when my work's proxy server cached the site. Now all i get is the cached version from the proxy server. When I pull up senacases.com on my phone I get the site. bah!
Thanks a ton... and coupon code!
Hey guys,
First thanks for the review and case link... I ordered a tan one and can't wait to get it rolling... also
DeoreDX,
Thanks for the mention on the BSE as well... I ordered one of those too.
I've got some info though for those looking to buy this SENA case.
COUPON CODE: PCWIPNK11
20% discount, or $6.00 off purchase price, plus the standard shipping turned out to be $28.98. Original price of the case is $29.99.
So free shipping + $1.01 off. Not as much as I hoped but certainly saves a bit.
Hope this helps some people out!
Thanks again for the info DeoreDX!
after a week of using this case I must say it's very pocket friendly and it seems to be durable.
very stylish and unique.
I ordered a tan one and it works great to protect the phone...
I'm not sure what a drop onto cement from my pocket would do but i'm sure it would be far less than a naked tp2.
thanks!

I bought the black one and love it but I'm really eyeballing the tan one hard. Sort of wishing I had bought the tan one myself. I swear the black one must be camouflaged and blends into everything and is impossible to find when I set it down lol
I get Sena cases website fine. They are a fabulous company. I was in a wreck several years ago, ejected from a car at 50 mph. The case save my Pocket PC of those days. The tab fell off a few days later. I emailed Sena to see if i could get it fixed. They shipped me a new one with a metal tab free in 2 days. I am a permanent customer.
Thanks for the review & I admit it's what I was looking for w/o realizing that was what I was looking for!

That link works for me, although I have no interest in this sleeve; I prefer to keep mine on my belt, with belt loops for secure attachment.

Thanks for the coupon code! nice little discount US$33 shipped so better than $40.
anyone know of a similar but cheaper pouch to this?
Alright so, I'm the type of person who never puts cases on their phones..
The least I would ever do would be an zagg shield.
Though, with the evo 3D I'm sorta feeling a case now.
I'm looking for a really... really thin case.
My friend has the infuse on at&t and she has a really thin case.
It feels almost metal..and only covers the back and the sides.
But it as almost no bulk to the phone..
Anything similar to that for the evo 3d?
thanks!
heres what i bought:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hybrid-Hard...ccessories&hash=item4aac82961c#ht_1814wt_1159
there is also the casemate but its cost more money for almost the same product:

How do you like it?
I personally wouldnt recommend them as they provide no protection at all if you drop the phone face down or it lands on the corner edge. I would go with a TPU case if you need something that is thin, as they wrap around the edges and protect the phone better. I'm not just saying this because I own TPU-Cases either Buy them from whoever you want.. just my opinion of course.
I have the matte back black case from tpu-cases.com and highly recommend them:
http://tpu-cases.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=7&sort=20a&page=1
it's thin, fits perfectly, aesthetically looks great, free fast shipping (they are a U.S. seller so there's no wait time unlike the overseas stuff) with email confirmation, all at a great price. Their current line up have the camera holes lined up and as it's raised, there is protection for the 3D's dual cameras when you lay it flat on a table. The shutter and volume buttons are covered but access is not a problem for me.
Hope this helps.
I have a smoke argyle TPU already. I bought it since I got the phone 3 days before release and an Otterbox wasn't out yet. Once rooting my phone I realized how much I loved how thin it was.
i just bought this one i thought it looked really cool and it cheap so if i dont like it no big loss http://www.ebay.com/itm/Aluminum-Metal-Case-Cover-HTC-EVO-3D-Sprint-H153-/320721844909?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4aac82faad
I bought this one and really like it. It fits very tightly and looks really nice in person. It snaps together securely and if I have any complaints, this tight and secure fit is it. I had to take it off once to do a battery pull and I thought I was going to destroy it getting it off. If you like to frequently swap out spare batteries, this is probably not the case for you. Other than that, I can't find any faults with it.

i like the case alot, fits perfect. It adds no bulk at all which is what i wanted cause i also never used a case on my previous phone just the Zagg shield, i have full zagg on along with this case so the tops and bottom where the case does not cover is still protected. Also i have a tpu case and the otterbox commuter, i use each depending on the kind of things i do that day.
I'm with you, I've never used a case and I always used to bad mouth people who made their brand new phone ugly as **** buy putting a case on it. Hell, I even got my roommate to go naked with his Droid X.
BUT, I dropped my new baby Evo3D a few times already and since I'm no longer rich, I thought, I'd put a case on it. Got one of these bad boys from ebay, $2.19 shipped
The fit is perfect and it doesn't look bad either. Adds minimal thickness. I also ordered a ballistic case just to try it out...we'll see though. I don't want the phone to look like a brick

I had that case also and agree, very nice and doesn't add much bulk at all. Unfortunately, as you mentioned, getting it off the phone is ridiculously difficult IMO. Also, I didn't like the fact that instead of having smaller, precise cutouts for just the camera lenses and the flash, it had one giant cutout in the back for the entire camera module (leaves the area more susceptible to scratches IMO). So I returned it and got a case from tpu-cases.com. Different material but adds about the same amount of neglible bulk to the phone. More importantly for me though, it doesn't have the one giant cutout in the back but rather, instead, has smaller cutouts just for the two camera lenses, flash, and speaker.
how about this? htc official case

I think the case mate barely there is the thinnest case out there. I got a couple of copycat cases from here:
Case-Mate barely there copycat
Another Case-Mate barely there copycat
I bought both of them in black. They turned out to be identical. Both are the same thinness and have the soft touch paint in the back. Now I got 2 of them.... and can only use one..... pushing my wife to get an EVO 3D as well when her contract is up in Nov.
I have a case like the CaseMate Barely There on my 4th Gen IPod Touch and love it. For my 3D, u have all 3 Otterbox cases and use them for different activities.

I have this one, and in a few colors. Really like it, too. For some reason, I get obsessed with trying lots of new cases, so I have about a dozen, probably.
