$10 bucks isn't bad. Haven't done a great deal of digging yet though for other cases.
Wondering if At&t is going to have any cases on launch. They have been historically bad in the past at carrying anything but iphone accessories on new launches.

Says it ships 12/1.
I'm hoping AT&T includes a screen protector with it. They have with all other smart phones I've got from them.
Amzer® Silicone Skin Jelly Case - Black For Samsung Focus I917

I can't find a single site selling a silicone case for the Focus right now - or any case for that matter. Where did you get yours?

Just ordered the Amzer Jelly case. It is a stop gap until better cases come out. Fommy is running a special right now. If you act quick, you can get 10% off and free shipping. I paid $8.95 total using promo code "PRESHOP". Good until 23NOV 23:59 est.
Picked up a $7 case on ebay, black silicone. Should arrive any day now and it will tide me over until something better becomes available.

Got my ebay case/skin. It's rubbery, fits well will contours matching the back of the phone. Camera, power, and volume are raised nubs, not cut-outs. Actually this helps with button actuation. Changes the feel of the phone in the hand substantially for the better. You have more control while typing, and you don't feel like the phone will squirt from your hand. Note this is the rubbery-soft type, not the gel type of skin (e.g. like the BodyGlove that AT&T sells).

Is this the one you're talking about? it's pretty cheap and i looked at some people's feedback about the case and they said it was good as well.

Yeah, that's the one, or an equivalent from another seller. I'm sure they are all exactly the same. The kiosks at the mall would sell it for $20.

Amzer Silicone Skin Jelly Case
I ordered the Amzer Silicon Skin Jelly Case for my Samsung Focus from Amzer.com and WOW!!! ... talk about absolute perfection!
I tried the $34 one from the AT&T store and it seemed like an idiot designed it and so of course I didn't expect much from a $10 case but figured it would be something until more are developed for this type of phone.
Boy was I wrong about this being a temporary fix because this $10 thinhg fits absolutely perfect, no obstruction with the buttons, looks amazing, feels like it protects this thing PERFECTLY! and feels so velvety smooth & grippy.
The reason I got mine already is because the black color is out of stock but not the other colors and so I ordered black for myself and maroon red for my wife and so they shipped hers already with no extra shipping charges. AND might I add that the maroon red doesn't look girly at all, it actually looks pretty bad-a%% with the black color of the phone. Of course I'm still waiting for my black one BUT for those want it now, the maroon red is the coolest color right after black.
I just ordered 2 of those jelly cases for the Wife and I, and I ordered a cool leather pouch w/belt clip case from www.focusaccessories.com to hold mine at work...
Could you post pics of your Focus with the Amzer case?

Has anyone bought or knows of a Belt Pouch case for the HD7 that actually fits the HD7 and has a magnetic clasp.
I have tried two different cases from two different amazon businesses and neither was big enough, they don't bother checking, getting my money back on both but need to find one that DOES fit the HD7 fine.
Jamie
I bought this one and it fits my HD7 very well.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00466DL1O/ref=oss_product
Only issue is that it's not leather. It's some sort of leather replica material made out of rubber which gave it a strong rubber smell when I took it out of the package. The smell has disapated over the days.
Thanks for the info Kino, after searching online all day I have ordered two different style cases from http://www.pdair.com/ a lot of UK Mobile shops stock their products so decided to look at their site and they have just brought out a range of new cases and such specifically designed to fit the HD7 and only the HD7.
Good warranty and prices too as it's free worldwide shipping, just need to wait and see what turns up now.

I'm looking for a holster myself. they have one for the iphone that alows you to have a your case on the phone and it fits in the holster.

Sorry to say. That I actually have\had that case for my HD2. And the stitching on the inside was a little poor and where the brown on the inside met the black on the outside was misaligned very noticeably. Overall, it was just poor build quality. I actually have this case http://www.cellularoutfitter.com/p-...ontal-leather-carrying-pouch-for-htc-hd7.html and it works perfect too. I actually bought it for my HD2 also. And it fits just fine on the HD7. I actually believe I paid less than 12.00 for it, but can't find or remember the site.
Try the following site, I've always bought my PDA/Smartphone accessories from them:
http://www.shop.brando.com
Ha, forgot I had started this thread, I got my 2 cases from PDair, both came in nice boxes and were very nicely finished. Designed specifically for the HD7 and they fit perfectly when they came, been using it every day for last 3months and it's great.
Has anyone bought an Amzer case from Amazon? Gel or TPU? Any good?

I ordered a black silicone case as well as their screen protector to try out for the hell of it. They are out of stock so there will probably be a small wait till it arrives.
yeah ordered one of their screen protectors. i dont need a case if i have a ZAGG on the back
The cases aren't out yet. They are up for pre order. If you go to Amzer's website you will see that they don't ship until 1/5. That is how it has been since the phone came out cause that is when I checked for it so it is not out yet.
Yea I was going to order a couple gel cases and noticed all the products/most are for pre-order

I was gonna wait for a different case, but i already dropped my phone on the pavement and gave the corner a nice little ding I settled for this case..
Amazon seems to be out of stock. However, one of the other sellers had the case in stock so I ordered through them on Amazon. Fast shipping, too - just got a e-mail the order has been shipped.
please mind your language...
The AMZER silicone cases look nice. I have disliked the Best Buy case since the day I bought it, but any case (well, almost any case) is better than no case. Anyway, Amazon registered the AMZER ones as in stock today, so I ordered one. Optimistically waiting.

I also have Prime (have since it was made available) so I just placed an order for two (one white and one black) and chose 3.99/item one day shipping and should be getting them tomorrow.
Side Note:
I highly recommend Amazon Prime to anyone who uses Amazon frequently. It's only 79.99/year and you can invite up to 4 household members (though I'm sure you can add a friend) to share the membership. The first time I realized how great it was, was when I ordered an industrial strength shredder as a christmas present and because of the bulk the shipping would have been outrageous, so instead I opted for the 3.99/item overnight shipping.

Contacted CaseMate (USA) a few days ago via Twitter and they said ETA for IS cases will be mid-April. Although Barely There cases are already being sold on eBay.
I have a bad impression about case-mate.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App
This is pretty good news. I was going back and forth between a hard or silicone/rubber case and a full-body invisible shield (though they still haven't offered a hint as to whether or not one will be offered), but since the IS is actually quite reasonable in size I could go with a case-mate...
Here in the UK i recently brought the Casemate barely there from my local carphone warehouse and it seems to be, so far as i haven't actually dropped the phone yet, a good case. As the name suggests adds very little exta bulk to the phone.
Also it comes with a screen protector
The screen protector is already available and the rest of the cases are expected to be available for purchase in Europe in the middle/end April
I've had quite good experience with the Case-mate barely there cases, they provide the adequate protection with a range of colour choices also.
But at the same time I am deciding between several other cases as well, I definately won't be investing on more than one case though, for I don't see myself keeping the phone too much longer, around 6 months perhaps when the summer holiday comes and we may see a few more surprises.
PDair HTC Incredible S Leather Case
]HTC Hard Shell
They all have their own selling points, I have never really had to complain about both Case-Mate and PDair but they serve different purposes for me in someways, the Case Mate is alot more casual, and the PDair is mainly for work.
The Hard Shell shown by Mobilefun seems a reasonable choice but price is TBC, if it had other colours coming soon it would be great as well.
Thank you for the links. I'm just wondering : what is the difference between the "barely there" and the "safe skin" models?

Safe Skins are soft silicone and they cover all the back and outer edge on the front part of the phone.
Barely There covers are hard, with rubbery finish, that covers the back and the sides but not the upper and lower edge of the phone.
Correct me if I am wrong
I just bought a barely there case from this guy:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CASE-MATE-BAR..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item1e6249dccc
Ignore the picture as that is of the tough case, the barely there case doesn't cover the top or bottom edge of the phone. It is light, tough and worth having, and this eBay seller was very quick to dispatch too, would highly recommend. I will take some photos when I get home tonight.

Needed case and screen protector in India
Hi, I'm from India. Just got my I-S and found that HTC ships without a pouch or screen protection. I realise that casemate and expansys are EU/UK based and have no delivery in India. I have used PDAir for my earlier phone. Can anyone guide me in finding a retailer in India? I am interested in the gel/TPE/silicone cases. Tks.

I can't find a case for this phone anywhere online. I checked amazon and googled it. People were talking about samsung.com, but I don't see anything specifically for the note 2 there. Can everyone just post links of places they got their cases? I really want a case before I destroy the phone. Thanks!

Samsung.com.
Shop products -> Cell Phone Accessories. Should be 20 pages of stuff
Filter for "Cases and Holsters" on the left. Should be 4 pages now.
Go to page 4. Official Samsung flip cover ($40) and protective case ($30) are there in 2 colors each. Use the 50% coupon from thread at the top of this forum.
Also, there is always eBay, and I heard Sprint stores have cases in stock. My T-Mobile store had no accessories
There are not many US-based retailers that have cases for sale at reasonable prices. I have a slew of them coming through eBay but most of them are third-party and shipping from Hong Kong. I checked the T-Mobile store nearby only to find that they did not have any accessories in stock and did not have any idea when they'd be getting them in.
Samsung.com, when I last checked yesterday, did not have any of the flip covers in stock for the Note 2. I put in a backorder on them but have no received an email yet.
Amazon.com, has mostly third-party accessories as well and it's difficult to find the correct items. Keep in mind that you can search for N7100, N7105, SGH-T889, SGH-i317 and many other model numbers.
Hoping within the next week or two that more US retailers begin carrying accessories.
Sprint
Anybody checked if Sprint has any accessories either?
Just called up T-Mo again, and again, "sorry, nothing yet. Looks as we got the phones early or something". Sigh...I think I got a simple one that should be here by next Monday...from Amazon.com
Well that's lame I'd really like to protect my phone. Can you guys post links to the few cases you are finding? I mean why can't we buy from European retailers sites? It's like they aren't selling cases yet either...
Just checked and Samsung.com is indeed out of the Flip cover, but they have the Protective cover in White and Black in stock.

More and more cases are showing up each day. I ordered that Poetic flip case myself last night. Got a notification that it had dropped to $4.95, and there was no shipping cost (even without Prime), so it was pretty much a no-brainer.
Saw that about the Poetic case myself too. Went to order it today and they wanted to charge something like $25 for delivery to Europe Thanks but no thanks. Pity.
If you receive delivery I'd love to read a review

I'm particularly curious to know, when that case and the Note 2 arrive, if it can handle the phone inside of a TPU.
Speaking of TPUs, I haven't heard back from Diztronic yet on whether they're making TPUs for the Note 2. TPUs don't get any better than Diztronic, imo.
Wish there was a seidio case out.. Or something like it.. That was a nice case that protected well

I have bought quite a few cases for my Note original, and then my S3, and now a few for my Note 2, but i always come back to using this one.

It is cheap and is relatively unobtrusive. It is thin and yet, sturdy enough to protect the phone from a drop from a table top. The sides wrap around the front of the touchscreen just enough to give it protection from putting it directly on a flat table top. The kick stand is very useful to stand this beautiful screen, especially for the kids to watch a show.
