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?

ebay > /itm/BLACK-CLEAR-TPU-GUMMY-SKIN-HARD-SOFT-CASE-VERIZON-MOTOROLA-DROID-RAZR-XT912-/300646356770 this one is very beautiful
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 order one of these. Waiting to get it. Seems like a quality item. Any thoughts?
Rearth Samsung At&t Galaxy Note SGH-i717 Screen Protector [Ultimate Clear PLUS]

I also ordered the Rearth screen protector from Amazon. I received it today and installed it on my note. Its incredibly clear. The install was super easy and the fit is great. So far Im really enjoying it.
I bought the slim case today looks like the kit comes with the screen protector, I wonder how well the screen protector will do with the S pen. http://www.rearthusa.com/galaxy_note_slim.html

any bubbles? mine will be here tomorrow!
Not a single bubble. It's very nice. It also seems to not collect oil from your hands either.
I got it and I would say it's a perfect fit. To be bubble free depends on your experience applying it. It is no different however from the $3 for 5 pack dry application protectors you find on ebay (rearth comes with 2). I wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't for amazon free 2 day shipping. I don't want to wait 3 weeks for a hongkong seller to mail it.

I had one come with my case. It was descent but I didn't like the feel. I play a lot of "slidy" games and most screen protectors just feel to tacky.

I got the Ringke Slim. I really like the in-hand feel. Gives the Note just the right "oomph" without adding a ton of bulk.
Keep in mind that this is a very minimalist case -- a lot of people were caught off guard by this. The sides are largely exposed, for example.
Also, the back is not tacky like a TPU case. I added egrips.
The port covers are nice, they come with one extra of each, and they are easily removable if you dont like them. I removed the charger port cover and kept the 3.5mm cover.
FYI it's cheaper on amazon if you have Prime.... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0074MQ1T6

Thanks for the info. That's part of the reason I ordered that one, I liked the fact that the chrome still showed.

Yup. I ordered mine thru prime. You can't beat the $3.99 overnight shipping. I'm waiting on a sd card from Amazon right now.
Just got the rearth and applied it. Perfect fit - it will extend to less than 0.5mm from the edge of the screen if you do it right.
I was hoping the oleophobic properties were better. More fingerprints and friction than I would like.

I too bought the Rearth from Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Rearth-Samsun...Q1T6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330046814&sr=8-1
I just applied my screen protector tonight. Got it on the first try. I've installed 10-20 screen protectors before so I have experience.
I bought the Zagg a couple days ago at best Buy and totally screwed it up! What a waste of $22. Never buying Zagg again. Plus, the Zagg screen protector feels a little "sticky" not as smooth as the Rearth.
The Rearth is almost like it's not there. We'll see if it shows as many scratches as the cheap-o ones that come from Hong Kong. I too usually buy those ones for my phones, but I didn't want to wait 3 weeks. There was no U.S. sellers. I figured spending $12 now with free 2 shipping is better than taking a chance at scuffing up the screen before I got the screen protectors from eBay.
I purchased the Slim case from Rearth for my Note also.
I've had three Rearth cases now and also have the vecro keyboard cover for my macbook.
I absolutely love their products. Exactly what they say they are.
The screen protector works, looks, and feels great imo.
Easy to install, crystal clear, perfect fit. I love it.
I like the screen protector. Fits perfect and is clear so much so that I don't even know its on

Wow, $65 for a case. But if it is good quality leather, it would be worth every penny. We will see I suppose. I'm sill waiting for a leather case with a belt clip thats not junk. I look forward to a full review OP, don't let us down!
I want it so bad. Thin, kickstand, great color, and stuff. I dunno if it has bumper sidings. but hey thats what the best buy accidental plan is for. not bad for ten bucks a month

I like that they have different colors. The brown would look sexy on the white note, but on a black one may look odd. Note sure though. I noticed they had a burgandy or maroon one, nice to have some options.
Very nice. But that's really pricey.
It reminds me of the Samsung flip cases. I wonder if it supports the NFC antenna as it looks like it replaces the back battery cover.

I don't think it replaces the back cover. They make another version without the flip cover that is a 2-part, front and back snap together case. This one looks just like it. So the back of the case fits over the Note's back cover, then you attach the front bezel.

You should try the yooboa flip cases, they're real leather and half the price. They make 2 styles, I have the executive leather one, no complaints here and for $23 it'll hold me over til trident or otterbox decide to release their cases.

That's on the optimistic side of typical for HK purchase. I bought some batteries mid month and saw 28th as expected delivery and thought it was great, then when the 29th came I was wondering where my stuff was and looked it up and it actually had said the end of the following month. I was ticked, mostly as myself. Batteries showed up a week or two later though ahead of schedule.
Just bought mine from amazon for $39.99
When you get one of these Tryit cases in, will you please let us know if the bezel covers the edge of the display? From the pictures, it looks like it doesn't (which would allow me to put a Glas.t on it). Thanks.
Once I get it, I'll post pics.
Body Glove cases are now $6.25 on bodyglovemobile.com from $24.99. I dropped my phone today and cracked my case so I was looking to get another one. I bought a replacement red one and a gray one and it came out to $12.50. I applied the 20% off coupon code (BG20UV) and it came to $10.00 with free shipping.
Anyway, if anyone wants a cheap and decent case for your Rezound, go check them out. The cheapest I saw this on ebay was $8.
I have about 10 cases already and don't use any of them right now. With that being said, couldn't pass up this deal. In for 2. Thanks

This is my favorite type of case/pouch. I ordered 3 of them. I have ordered some neoprene pouch's before from the same seller for my Gnex. They worked just fine.
Are they waterproof? What's the draw?

I don't think they are waterproof. Cheap Chinese neoprene pouch. But the work well. I always like the simple neoprene pouch. I usually order a few.
I too have ordered these the the Galaxy Nexus and they are great if you don't want a case but want just a little bit of protection from things like keys in your pocket. I'm glad they released one for the DNA, definitely ordering a few .
Just ordered two. Thanks for this, been looking everywhere for something exactly like it. Sena makes great leather pouch cases of this style that I have bought for iPhone, SGIII, ReZound, etc, but they don't yet have one for the Droid DNA.
