I know there are several threads about cases for the HD2 here, but a few are about leather cases (which I do not want to use)...there some about the silicone/ gel cases which I would like to use, and theres the invisible skin type which I would like to know more about. I do not know if the Invisible Skin/Armor ..w/e you want to call it -they seem the same to me... are tough enough to truly protect the phone from a fall ?
I also would like to know if there are any silicone/gel cases which are thinner than usual but still provide adequate protection...
One good example I can think of is this one case I saw on an iphone -it was a clear hard case, but it was very thin which made me really like it...

sry but I dont agree... you pay a lot of bucks for a phone to put it in a junk case?

you're not reading properly. he's saying why go cheapo on an expensive phone?
Just got the Silver Case Mate Barely There today. Brilliant stuff - super snug, mirror finish, super thin. As thin and light as More-Thing's cases in fact, which I used to use when still on a Touch HD. Finger magnet but love it anyways

Better go cheapo-if i'd get a nice looking case, i wouldn't want THAT to get scrathed up either!
I ordered the capdase protector, seems to be really nice. the invisible shield and stuff like that offer no drop protection i hope mine will offer some.
Hmm... the barely there case not available yet for Tmo US HD2
I bought my "barely there" case direct from HK. Problem is, if you have multiple batteries like I do, you tend to scratch your phone when removing/replacing the case to get to the battery cover.
This led me to use the clear/invisible armor/shield, but I've had to remove the section that covers the antenna because it seems to cause rapid battery drain - see my post at thread 652013.

and i find it's great.
is it much different than the one shipped with the hd2?
Tried quite a few cases but my fav so far is this one:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390149733765&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Also known as flexishield case. It's like a soft plastic / gel case so glides in and out of your pockets easily and doesn't stick/attract lint like some silicone cases. It offers good protection but only adds about 1mm thickness to your phone.
I recommend black/gray but the choice is yours.
I actually ordered one like that...
but I find it hard to believe that it only adds 1mm thickness, 1mm is like a screen protector thickness almost....idk maybe I am wrong?
Okay maybe two then
But certainly doesn't add much at all. A screen protector is micron thin. I don't think it adds 1mm...
There are also variations in the gel type cases. Some are actually thicker. My friend bought a similar one but was quite a bit thicker. It had like a checked pattern on the back.

You guys may want to check the HTC HD2 Armor Case by BoxWave - The Metal Case sells @ Amazon.com for $27.95 (US DLS) I just bought 2 one for my wife & me. My thing is; you have a pretty nice and expensive phone, you better protect it good!!!
Armor Case by BoxWave it sells on amazon.com for $27.95 US dls. Really nice!!!! I just bought 2!!
So what is the best "WW3 Ready" case for the HD2 ?
I know for the Iphone we have Otterbox etc, what are the top 3 for the HTC HD2 ?
It needs to protect it from a fall on concrete and look cool.
Thanks !
try this!

In my opinion the best compromise between cool look and good protection is Otterbox.
Commuter Case
Defender Case

This morning I have just received my Defender case from Otterbox (a little hacked off with them because I only ordered my Commuter from them three weeks ago because they told me there were no plans to release a Defender - hey ho!) and man is it rugged! Check it out on their website. It is basically a high impact plastic two part inner with built in screen and lens protection (no need for stickons, although I have left my adhesive protector on and the capacitative screen still works perfectly through two layers of protection), plus a full wrapround silicone outer. But forget the crappy feel of cheap skins, this is seriously high quality and wonderfully tactile. And boy does it protect! I decided to throw my HD2 across the office this morning just to test the new case and it just bounced! It comes with a belt clip which the whole phone clips into, so if you don't want to use it you don't have a bulky clip permanently attached to your case. The hardware buttons work perfectly (the outer skin has button pushes moulded in) - they feel more positive than the ones on my commuter case too. There is an easy access flap over the usb and headphone ports so no dust ingress. It does add a lot of bulk to the phone but it looks and feels great. I'm going to hang on to my commuter for when I need my phone to slide neatly into my pocket, but I suspect it will be wearing the Defender most of the time now. It is not cheap but well worth the price to protect a £400+ phone. If you are into active pursuits (or just accident prone) buy this case!

Man, that is some rugged case. Thanks for the review. I can't believe you threw your phone to test it!

My only query with these 'rugged' cases is that I see it more likely for my phone to be dropped in water or get splashed on out in the rain of here Merry Old England or the downpours of India then get run over by a 3 ton forklift (yeah, this is the sort of testing they do!)
So my question would be are the otterboxes water-resistant (not waterproof i.e. can it withstant around 1 minute immersion in water?

For some reason I cannot find the Defender Otterbox anywhere with WW shipping ! It's not even showing up on the otterbox site.
Any ideas ?
btw- The " US " Version means T-Mobile's ?
BTW2- Is T-Mobile's version the only one with 570mb of RAM ?

Takes about 15 seconds to remove the case and 45-50 seconds to put it on as the outer silicone skin needs to be fitted around various tabs and into channels to ensure the case is splashproof.

What is the difference between the cummuter and the defender ? Is the commuter much less protective ?
Also, does the "International Otterbox HD2 Defender" fit the T-Mobile HD2 ?
Defender
commuter is just like rubber skin,, defender has the inner case to protect hd2.. No, the international is only for Telstra & t8585, not us tmobile
Thanks !
So what is the second best protection case available for the T-Mobile after the Defender ? (Seeing that Otterbox dont make Defenders for T-Mob)

I ordered this on ebay after watching the video on youtube.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=9RaUUN1Pgh4
I have to say I'm pretty impressed with it. Very unique design. It's hard, and rubberized to so you can keep a good grip on it.
It's not cheap, I paid about 60 bucks USD for it. Check it out, you guys might like it., I know I do!
Cheers!
Thank you for that! Bit bulky, but has cool features. Please give us an update when it arrives.
Same here. Too bulky and cheaplooking for my taste.

Did look at one like that but I thought it was a bit bulky too. Like the hard front cover for bag protection though.
Using this one on mine with a screen protector and a slip case, for bag protection
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BLACK-GEL-CAS..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item2c58e50d25
It is excellent quality and offers good bump and scratch protection. It does not increase the footprint much and has a nice lip on the edge to give you a good purchase on the tab while holding it.
Cut outs for ports and buttons are spot on and have enough room around them for a the cables to attach correctly (others do not!)
For the price I am very pleased.
Love the kickstand.

I bought the 2nd case for my Galaxy TAB and it's exactly the same case like yours except with white side.
It's cheap but it's good.
The case posted by Big_Totoro is good but, kinda worried the front lid with standing stoppers
which might eventually create marking or scratches on Galaxy TAB screen.
I'm using Incipio Silicrylic with kickstand. It is very nice and rugged. The kickstand kind of sucks but I contacted Incipio and they are going to work something out. Kickstand aside, the case is nice and heavy duty without adding much bulk.
I ordered this case in black just over a week ago and it arrived today. Brilliant fit, barely adds any weight while the device feels fully supported. The different prop positions are also great. My only concern was that it wouldnt fold back on itself to allow good usage one handed, but it a actually folds back on itself really well.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Got mine
It isn't really very bulky. compared to a 3mm rubber skin yeah it is, but that isn't going to give you any protection anyhow
The rubberized outside is very grippy. Easy to hold in one hand without the fear of slippage.
The "stand" parts don't contact the screen at all when closed. It might if you have pressure applied to it, but again, it is soft rubberized finish on those stant peices as well on the inside.
The fit is brilliant. Leaving all the external buttons accessible. The front cover folds back easily, and don't fold over on itself at all.
It feels very sturdy and rugged. Not cheap feeling at all.
Just goin to touch on the "bulkiness" topic again briefly. Most leather or PU leather cases I have looked at at alot bulker than this case. While that MAY off a little more padding, I have noticed that most of those leather cases, the clasp interfers with the view of the screen.
Just my 2 cents
Cheers guys!
Thank you. I haven't found a retailer in Europe though. I hope this will change.

Got the same hard case in black, OP said rubberized finish, though mine is more like a textured finish, not sure if there are 2 types?
looks a little plasticy?

Yes, certainly not what I would call rubbery or soft-touch. I haven't heard back from the seller yet.
Mine is Black as well. I guess we have a difference of opinion on what rubbery feel is
Its hard plastic with a rubberized coating. I dont know how else to explain it. Its not silicon rubbery or so rubbery that it would rub away.
Its not squishy, but its definatly not slippery. So there is a ruberized coating on it.
Sent from my SGH-T849 using XDA App
just got my GT for a week, i saw this case on "yeebay"
will order one during or after the xmas/NY holiday, so i'll receive it as soon as the post office people start working.
Just an update, it turns out that there are 2 versions - the GLARE is not rubberized. I bought this for ~$40 from the seller. According to the seller, this cost less than the rubberized and it made sense cause he is selling the "other" version for ~$60. But when I went back & look at the item # I bought from (he still has units selling under the same item #), the price has gone up to ~$60.
I think the case is fine as is and will not spend return shipping & extra $60 to get the rubberized finish, just put that towards a leather case instaed.
Hi Big_Totoro,
How did you find it at Ebay? I've no idea how it is called or who build it (Manufactor). I was not able to find it anywhere in the web. Can you give me a hint?
Merry Christmas to all people out there!
I bought one of these too and absolutely love it. The fit is perfect, the ergonomics are fantastic (someone has spent a lot of time thinking about how this will be used so it supports all positions), it provides great protection, and the rubberised surface feels great.
I reckon this is the best case I have bought for any device- most useful, and if anything the device feels smaller to me in the case- an illusion obviously, but a testament to the quality of it.
I bought a few cases for my tab, but this is the only one that I will be using
I haven't seen that many cases for this phone even on ebay or amazon. Just a handful... Which ones are you using? And how do you like them? Protection and appearance...
Havent found any good on amaxon either but if u like incepio u can check out there site they got like 4 available might be getting one.

Ive moved from a z3 compact and I had the same leather case for 2 years. Great quality and decent leather. Afte comparing lots of phone sizes I took a slight risk getting this iPhone6 plus sized one
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00NKFZYW6/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Only point is I slide my Z play in downwards so it's easier to grasp when pulling it out.
I like that pouch man. Super classy. How's the fit? Is it too tight or loose?
I was expecting it to be slightly too long as the iPhone6 plus is bigger but it's perfect. After having one for my old phone the pouch never gets loose enough for it to fall out. Prefer these cases to open ones so the screen is protected as well.
Looks good man. I may pick one up! It's perfect for the off hours... I also need something for work tho.. I work in an industrial setting and while I'd love to have the phone naked I need something hardcore in case I drop it. I've seen the Incipio ones, I may get one of those I guess... You'd think with the battery life this phone has it would have been a more popular model. But it seems like not too many people are picking it up
Had to order a Nillkin case of Aliexpress, as decent cases arent available yet on local sites.
Recently ordered mine shock proof case in Ali Express
-----------------------
-UPDATE-
This is the case: https://m.pt.aliexpress.com/item/32745245264.html
It hasn't arrived yet, but I think it's pretty neat, the phone seems to fit right into the case, so it doesn't make it that extra bulky, but it doesn't also fit a Mod back there.
I don't use a case. I use protector from the Gadgetshieldz. They act as my primary protection.
http://www.gadgetshieldz.com/moto-z-play-screen-protectors-covers-cases.html
didn't use case only screen protector
Ended up picking this one up for now. Protects the camera well has a decent lip over the screen for a slim case and it's a sticky kinda rubbery plastic so it won't fly out of my hands at work. It was also nice and cheap with prime shipping.

Are the leds in your flash of the same color/tone?
No they aren't. One is orange the other pale yellow...
Looks the same in the pics
You can see a slight difference in the first one. Color reproduction accuracy wasn't really a concern there haha

i'm looking for a case like this but would cover the top and bottom...
I ordered this case and tempered glass.
Both from Nillkin. I will review it as soon as I receive it.
I got this case today & It's AMAZING! It's really high quality & feels good in the hand. It also makes back of the phone look good! That texture is amazing! With this case there is no camera bump anymore, it's perfectly aligned. Cuts are precise, it leaves a bit of space for holes, which is good. Phone is a bit thiccer, but it's not an issue for me. I didn't notice any weight increase subjectivily when holding it in the hand. I paid for it 17 euros which is quite expensive but it's worth it. You can get it a bit cheaper through AliExpress.
Highly recommend it!

Not to rain on your parade but that case is terrible, I bought it and got a refund on it not 2 days after.
It's textured sure but it's not rubber texture but plastic texture, meaning it'll slip from the table to the floor more times than you can count, I managed to break my tempered glass because the phone slid from the table to the floor because the case isn't grippy. You're better off with the case the phone came in, at least it isn't slippery. Or get a Spigen case like I did, they got released this week.
Also, I bought it for 7 euros on Aliexpress, how did you paid 17?

Well, there is no free shipping on Aliexpress for Serbia so there is that. Case is not slippy at all imo, it didn't move when placed on table. I looked for Spigen case as I heard they are good quality too but it's not avaliable here, so yeah. I think I read your post somewhere for Nillkin regular case, not this one containing the same issues you described. I could be wrong there.
I used Nillkin case back on Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo & it was also really good. They were very popular back than so that's why I decided to buy Nillkin case.

Well, there is no free shipping on Aliexpress for Serbia so there is that. Case is not slippy at all imo, it didn't move when placed on table.

Seems the one you bought is cloth based, mine was hard plastic. Nillkin does produce good cases but the one I got was such a disappointment.
I have a Nillkin Frosted Glass plastic case on my Poco X3, it's my fifth phone so far with that case. It's pretty good, although the white ones tend to get... not white very soon.
Is it higher around the camera to protect it?

Yes
I bought this case at aliexpress. The quality looks good. All holes are cut-out perfect
However, I don't like this case. It feels hard. And I hate the texture on the back side. Due to the texture small dirt particles sit between the dots. They don't go away with a fast wipe. The cut-out for the camera is a circle. Spigen uses a rounded rectangle which I prefer.
Sorry to say, but I really don't like this case. It feels just not smooth. The backside feels like sandpaper. Unpleasant to touch or hold the phone.
A member above said the case slips easily around. Like a ice cube. I can't confirm that. Actually it has a good grip on different surfaces.
That's all personal preferences. What I hate, others may love. As I said, quality looks great.
I'll get my spigen case in a few days. I know them from my old phones. Can't wait.

I got this case today & It's AMAZING! It's really high quality & feels good in the hand. It also makes back of the phone look good! That texture is amazing! With this case there is no camera bump anymore, it's perfectly aligned. Cuts are precise, it leaves a bit of space for holes, which is good. Phone is a bit thiccer, but it's not an issue for me. I didn't notice any weight increase subjectivily when holding it in the hand. I paid for it 17 euros which is quite expensive but it's worth it. You can get it a bit cheaper through AliExpress.
Highly recommend it!

Hi,
I ordered this case, I paid 11.45 USD only, it might be more expensive than other cases here, but after I bought a cheap case I decided that I won't waste money on cheap useless cases anymore, so I searched and found Nillkin is the most popular.
I have a question though, if you please...
Do I have to remove the case every week to clean the dust that go inside, like other cases?
Thanks in advance

Only around the camera. But that can be blowed outside. It's very good protected.

I found a better one which protects the camera, I received it today, hard case feels smooth in my hand, everything is fine except that the edges need to be higher than the screen a lil bit more to protect it, unfortunately it is not; after I installed the case I noticed that my screen protector tempered glass is higher than the case edges.
