Should I buy a case for my RAZR?? How many of you guys out there have I've and which one?
Sent from my XT910 using XDA App
I'm pretty anal about my devices, and haven't used a case (bought some, but they just turned into toys for my daughter) and my vote is: no case, they add unwanted bulk to the device, and sometimes interfere with some functionality. Just treat it nice (aka, don't put it in your back pocket, and get on a roller coaster...)

TPU cases are great. Adds little to no bulk, but provides good protection. Stronger than silicon but not solid and unflexable. I recommended the Cruzerlite TPU cases. Can be had for $9 and change on amazon. I bought a few. All the cutouts are perfectly placed and there are several different designs to choose from.

But then you can't see the Kevlar...

Oh god forbid you can't see the kevlar! I'll personally sacrifice the kevlar for the added protection.

Yupz.. sgp it's cool..
The back of the phone is very scratchable.
I got this case for $9 on Ebay, like it a lot. That trransparent part is matte, so kevlar is semi-visible.
Seido has some good cases - with a holster too
I got the Seido Active, doesn't add much bulk, fits in the car mount (With the car mount insert taken out), and has a holster too. I did try an otter box with a holster, but it didn't fit in the car mount, and the combo with the holster is huge.
I have two Razr Maxx(es), both with Otterbox Defender cases & belt holsters. Very impressed with the ruggedness as well as the comfort level using. Most stores charge $50, but you can get them for either the Maxx or the regular Razr on eBay for much less. I got them for $38 (I think) and each one included a car charger too.
How are casemate cases? Any one using it?

If anyone has a RAZR MAXX, just an FYI the regular RAZR silicone case will fit well!
I went with a case. The metal edges are just to slippery. I like more grip.
I went with the Verizon car with the kickstand.

I have a really nice case, it’s the "$6.99 a month to Verizon for replacement even caused by accidental damage" case.

W/ that said I'm using a Defender. All my phones have/had defenders. I'm rough on my stuff and it really helps the resale later when my phone is in pristine condition. Plus this RAZR being so thin I just felt like I was going to break it soon. Sucks though b/c I have a white RAZR and I tell you, the white with the black accents is wicked looking.
I ain't using case right now, but I will international ship that case, with the back empty, protecting only what need it.

I put a phantom skinz on mine. It's just a wrap. Prevents the scratches if you want to resell later. They have carbonfiber prints that look pretty good. Lifetime warranty on the skin and they have a screen protector that isn't sticky like the zagg product can be.

I was just wondering if there were any cases that you guys recommend for the X2. I bought one recently and it added too much bulk for my liking -.-. Do you guys know of any cases that are nice and super slim?? Maximum protection is not necessary, just enough to get by. Thanks!
I have the Rocketfish case from BestBuy. It's pretty light, and adds hardly any bulk. It's made out of study plastic. The thing I like about it, is that it's fairly cheap and comes in flat black. Can't stand glossy black cases, they look tacky/cheap to me.
Here some pics: http://imgur.com/a/jeMkw#DoLMG Sorry for bad quality, but had to use my Transformer's camera, since my point-and-shoot is dead.
I like the feel of the boby glove case on my x2. Its $10.50 at amazon. Verizon twice that.

I'm thinking about dropping my otterbox defender case for the ghost armor.
I use the OtterBox Commuter case for my X2 and ended up cutting off the flaps that cover the ports because they were just annoying. Other than that, it's an excellent case and fits perfectly! You can find them for $20 on the internet if you look around.
Thanks guys you've given me a lot of choices lol. I think I'm going to check out the Rocketfish and Body Glove cases. I also had a question about the ghost armor case; is it anything like the invisishield? Because I don't like the way that feels...
Check out the Incipio Step. Its a hybrid TPU/hardshell designed for the X2. Pretty much everything else I've found is an X hand-me-down.

Anyone have a recommendation for a case that comes with or has an available holster? And no to the Otterbox Defender... the holster is very poorly designed. Had one for the Charge, dropped it several times trying to reholster the phone.
sorry about that. My experience with the Otterbox has been excellent, I think the trident has something, but id look at the reviews on it before i pulled the trigger
Also have u guys seen this?

I have an otter box commuter and can't complain. Case works well and they have good customer service.
I've owned an otterbox commuter and its just too bulky. I refuse to take off my TPU case I got from amazon for 8 bucks. The best form fitting case I've found and when combined with a screen protector its amazing. Search Amazon for TPU case if you're a pocket man.
I use this one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Black-H...ccessories&hash=item4cfc066df4#ht_1368wt_1135
good enough for me
I like the TPU cases but I find myself always taking off my cases no matter which phone I had.
I have the defender but I stopped using it but now I want the commuter but I doubt I'd use it for long lol
I use the commuter and it fits in my pocket just fine.

Amazon sells it for 17 bucks. Its OK but as with otter the skin typically gets saggy after a while.
My concern with the otterbox cases has been the amount of lint they attract. They are like magnets for the stuff.

Looking for a slim case. I basically only want protection for scratches when laying on desks. I don't worry about dropping it.
My phone came with an otterbox defender series. It looked massive in the box and i'm sure it works well, but i hate cases to begin with and it never left the box.
So what is the slimmest case anyone has heard of?
I picked up one for $12 at those mall stands. Its super slim hard plastic snap on with a good feel to it. Its the thinnest one I've found.

I've had a lot of phone cases over the years, and I've only ever been a repeat customer of Seidio. Their Active case kept my Eco safe until I got my Razr, which looks rather dashing in a black and red Active case.
About $27 dollars on Amazon.

I bought the Incipio direct from their site. It is a great case, I bought it from day 1 with my Razr. Till now I had about 5-6 very bad hits as I dropped my phone and let me tell you guys nothing just nothing happened to my phone or even to the case. It came with a screen protector and its build is really strong and good.

Razr Maxx?
Can anyone verify that these cases also work with a Razr Maxx? I know it's a bit thicker so I figured I'd ask the experts before I tried to order.
Thank you!

Not sure, but doubt it. The maxx is thicker so I would assume you would not get a solid fit.

Hey guys!
Im looking to get the Note on a concession line from my job (That or the S3, and I have a serious love for the note) and have been looking around for some fun accessories before I take the plunge. Im curious, is there an aluminum back cover for the I717 note, or is it specific to the international variant?
Also, any case recommendations would be great. Im leaning toward the Kraken because of the durability and belt clip...Im just a little concerned about the size. Ive had trident before and cred them whenever possible. They have fantastic products. Thanks!
You could get a glass screen protector and a tpu case if thickness gets you. I have an otter box right now and its easily 2x as thick

I've got a Trident case for mine. They offer a lot of protection but not as bulky as otter box. Reasonable on the price as well.
so my question is will the battery cover fit? because i don't really care about the NFC function.

I have the OtterBox Commuter. It is a lot slimmer than the Defender series but it still protects your phone really well. I've broken my case twice and contacted OtterBox and they sent me a replacement case twice. They have really good customer service. I know the case isn't the slimmest out there but it's the slimmest it gets with some good protection.

If you want really slim, go with the CaseMate Barely There! If you want really slim and a solid back(no cut-out for the kickstand), there are cases on ebay. They are very very similar to the Barely There case, they just don't have the kickstand cut-out, slightly better camera protection, AND only $6 shipped!! I bought one in white, and it just arrived today. First impression: Very nice case! I'll take a pic and post it in just a minute.

Here it is. Few angles to show that the top and bottom aren't covered, just the sides. Sides do come up enough so the screen will not touch if you set it face down though. Nice touch I think.

the incipio feather case also is slim but doesnt protect the top and bottom like the case-mate, but it does have the kickstand cutout. I have a small issue with mine not completely reaching the side with volume keys but it's insignificant... if you want pictures just let me know
You guys and your otter box lol .. that case is over priced and fall apart.. not to mention the phone is big enough and now your adding more bulk to it .. get the cruzerlite case.. its 12 bucks on amazon and fits like a glove.. I've dropped this phone so many times and not one scratch or bruise.. nice and thin.

The impact doesn't have to be in the kickstand area for this type of damage to occur. This area is the weakest point of the aluminum frame, so the phone is most likely to bend there. Only a rigid case protecting the front and the back edges of the phone would prevent it.

I have 3 of those. Bought the smoke grey, clear, and the red. These are very nice TPU cases! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a TPU case!! I also have the 2-piece Seidio case in white (with the holster), 2 Commuter cases (one in each color combination so I could make my own black/white Commuter) , matte clear TPU case, and the case I pictured a few posts back. So far, I prefer the one pictured in this thread and my black and white Commuter! Nice to have different options depending on what I'm doing! Main reason though, in all honesty, I'm just an accessory whore when it comes to my phones! Lol. I do this with every phone I buy, and only use some once before they collect dust in a drawer until I sell the phone a year later.

Here's a pic of the Commuter in a Seidio Active holster. The fit is perfect, like the two were made for one another!! I also have the Seidio Surface case and holster. While you can put the Commuter in the Surface holster, it is too tight and far from ideal. If you already have the Surface holster and refuse to buy the Active holster, then it will get you by I suppose...but you should be planning to get the Active holster asap!

Here's what you're left with after using the white silicone and black plastic hard shell.You get the black silicone and pink plastic hard shell. I'm gonna put this on ebay, before too much longer I hope. I think this looks better, or at least just as good, than the pink/white case sold by Otterbox. I think Otterbox should let the customer decide what color silicone and what color hard plastic they want when ever placing an order. This would slow down their warehouse, or maybe just require them to hire one or two more warehouse employees, but would increase their sales I think.
