Supcase Unicorn Beetle Hybrid Case - One (M8) Accessories

Received my Supcase Unicorn Beetle Hybrid case ( http://amzn.com/B00IJ0R02Y) in the mail today after ordering it Mar 27th. I have to say that for $3... I'm impressed. The price is up now that they're being mass produced.
It looks, feels, and fits great. The cutouts are perfect, volume and power are easily pressed, and the IR blaster works great through the frosted power button. It fits like a glove. It was actually a little difficult getting the phone in but pays off big by feeling like it belongs on the phone.
I highly recommend this case for the m8.

Have the same case and I love it. Cost me 12 bucks though...you got a great deal!!

Thanks for posting pictures! I've been waiting to see some pictures of the actual product on a phone. I might just have to grab one too!

Is the back a frosted polycarb?

Do you think there is any concern with the polycarbonate back scratching the phone? Also, is the flash affected at all when using it for photos?

I would like to say that this case is absolutely terrific! My phone fell a full 3-4 feet from my desk and landed flat on the screen face. I was scared that the screen may have cracked but the lip of the case completely saved it. Definitely a great buy.

Every edge on the case is smooth inside and out. I don't think there's any risk of scratching. The photos I've taken with flash don't appear to have been negatively affected.

Unicorn Beetle Premium Hybrid Protective Case for HTC One 2014 (Frost Clear/Black)
Unicorn Beetle Premium Hybrid Protective Case for HTC One 2014 (Frost Clear/Black)
Loving mine. Just got it today. I actually like it more than the hybrid bumper case from supcase.
cant wait for my UAG one. Then ill be all set for all my cases!
Added some of my pics incase anyone wanted to see

Purchased this case in the double black last week just waiting for delivery. So far from the pics I'm glad I didn't buy the clear/black.

I just got it today in double black also. It's a really nice case! The fit is really good and has a nice textured grip on the sides. The TPU and polycarbonate look like one piece, seemless. The power key is very innovative and works very well and it came with 2 extra buttons. I've got both the Spigen Slim Armor and this and it's a tough call which one I like better!

Gotta love how good this case looks for the price. Just got it in the mail today and put it on my phone with very minimal effort, and I have a Zagg InvisibleShield Glass over the screen.. The IR blaster works without problems and the port holes are accurate. The back is not clear, but frosted (It's fine by me. It looks good and the HTC logo stands out since there's no branding over that area. Very well-made case in my opinion.
Posted a picture for reference.

anyone know how the spigen glas.tr nano slim screen protector would do with this case? It seems like the front is really really close to the edges of the screen, so I am not sure if the screen protector would get pinched or peeled up.
Any opinions/suggestions?
Thanks!
Austin

It looks like a solid case, like the hybrid. Only reason why I chose the Hybrid over this one is the plastic around the screen perimeter looks like could give "glass screen protector" users, like myself, a bit of a headache.

True but it was for the same price as the hybrid case and I work in a construction job (glass shop) so need the extra protection.

I'm really debating this case, in the pictures provided from you guys, what color m8 is pictured? Silver or gunmetal? I currently have the supcase hybrid with the totally clear back and black tpu bumper. I really want to show off the phones look which is one of the biggest reasons I got it over the other current phones. I just can't see well enough in the pics if the back shows the metallic tone of the gunmetal m8

Question
I am interested in buying this case but I don't like cases that stick to my pocket while pulling them out. Does this matte case have any problems?
I notice that there is a line/indentation around the back of the case - does this trap dirt/lint? I am wondering why they placed it there in the first place.
Thanks.

It goes in and out of my jeans pockets with no issues. If you wear skinny jeans, then I can't help you. It is remarkable to me how little dirt/lint stick to this thing. It is made of hard but flexible rubber, I haven't found anything sticking to it. Keep in mind, its a barely bigger than the phone and it does push up my screen protector in the lower left hand corner. My Spigen case didn't do that, but it made the phone feel huge to me.
Thanks!
Thanks for the info. What kind of screen protector do you have? I have purchased Invisible Defender (screen protector) and diztronic case. Hopefully they wont cause huge problems.

It's just a cheap clear one from Amazon. This case really hugs the screen, it adds almost no width at all. Its not really noticeable unless I look for it, I wouldn't think you'll have huge problems.

Spigen cases always seem to add unnecessary bulk, especially width to phones with their cases. And their colored plastic backs scratch and swirl like crazy.
They are extremely overrated and overpriced imo.

Can someone test something out on this case for me?
Are you able to stick 1 Credit Card and 1 photo ID on the inside of the back of the case? Will the case stay on and clip to the phone?
I am doing just that on my current phones case and would like to know what cases I can replicate this on.
Thanks in advance!

Does it seem like it could absorb a drop?
I'm using the black one for at&t and it has the correct mic hole openings and all. The op's pics didn't show the at&t version. Just an fyi.
Amazon just emailed me, my Verizon Diztronic Matte TPU case just shipped. Should be here by this Saturday or next Monday.
That lip on the back seems like a weird design choice... i have loved diztronic cases in the past, so I'm sure i'll order this.

Got one for my and the wifes phone....she prefers my Ballistic case (go figure) but the Diztronic is excellent and not bulky.
I might try the Incipio DualPro to see how it compares to the Ballistic.

For everyone wanting to get a screen protector that fits with this case, the Supershieldz screen protector from Amazon doesn't get in the way of the case if installed well (AT&T version).

SUPCASE Cases Look Pretty Nice!

Man these look beautiful. Can't wait to see how Spigen One Ups them with their hybrid cases.

Just got mine. There's a cut out for the power button/ir transmitter. Its slightly loose on the extreme top.
And the supcase logo on the back isn't centered and its a bit crooked. Other than that its fine for a 10$ case

Awesome, in for one then!
If anyone has one of these, can you describe the quality of the built in screen protector?
Does it feel like cheap plastic or glass? Does dust get trapped under there easily?
Would really appreciate it, that Supcase full body unicorn beetle looks awesome in my opinion!
I bought this Supcase.

Quality seems good. The clear power button is not loose at all. Lovely design, plenty of room around the camera and flash. Plenty of room around the headphone socket. No sharp edges that I find on some ~£10 cases.
Only problem is I ordered blue, and they sent me black...

I have both the Hybrid and the Unicorn Beetle... Didn't like the Hybrid at all. The fit on it is not that good, the top and bottom lips are a bit loose and saggy. Because of that, a lot dust and lint collects through there and into the case. I took it off after a week and also noticed some scratching on the clear glossy back. I don't recommend it at all, I think after some time, this case could possibly do more harm than good to your phone.
However, I also got the Unicorn Beetle and love the case! It's as if it was made by a different manufacturer, lol. The case fits perfect, good and snug, but not too tight. I wasn't crazy about the matte plastic bumper at first, it felt kind of slippery, but after a few days it seems to have broken in and feels good, nice grip. Highly recommend the Beetle over the Hybrid, totally worth the extra $4 or so.
i'm interested in the supcase white/clear but can anyone confirm if the white yellows? thanks.
which one?

That is the case that I ordered. Reasonable build quality, the rubber on the sides is pretty firm, and a little bit more grip-y than the naked phone.
I like the frosted back, as it feels resiliant enough to withstand an impact, but still shows off the brushed aluminum on the back of the phone.
Ive noticed a little bit of glare in photos with the flash enabled, I noticed that the edge surrounding the camera lens what polished so I lightly sanded it which noticeably decreased the problem.
The cutouts for the power and audio connections were a little sharp for me so I beveled them off with an exacto.
All in all, great quality case for what you are paying, and it makes me more confident in my grip on the phone!

[Q] What is the best, inobtrusive (yet protective) case for HTC One M8?

I don't like cases for phones much, and haven't used one before, but the HTC One M8 is so bloody big, it easily slips out of my (shirt) pocket. As well, it's big enough to be slightly unwieldly in my hand, as well as a bit slippery. So I'm considering getting a case for it.
The Dot Matrix case looks really cool, but from whatever I've read, doesn't seem to serve much of a protective function (apart from other complaints about the case not closing properly). If I'm actually going to use a case, I'd like it to offer some sort of protection.
Browsing Amazon for a while, I came across the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Premium Hybrid Protective Case which looks fairly good. Does anyone have any experience using this for the HTC One M8? Or the Blason one? Or other recommendations?
tl;dr: I'd like a case for the HTC One M8 which offers some protection, but which is inobtrustive.
I currently have the Spigen Silm Armor and I must tell you its a life saver. Being a very clumsy person, I drop my phone multiple times a day and I couldnt recommend it to you enough. While it may be on the more expensive side ($20), I think it is completly worth it
Here's the link to it
http://www.amazon.com/Spigen®-CUSHI...903&sr=8-1&keywords=spigen+slim+armor+htc+one
Baseus Clear coupled with a tempered glass protector. It's got grip and scratch protection covered. It's minimalistic, it doesn't detract from the HTC one's design. However it offers only minimal drop protection. Still, best all rounder IMHO.

ive got an otter commuter with a tempered glass protector on and it does fine and its not to big in my pocket
I use the Supcase. It's the right balance of low profile and protection for me. Also does not impair use if the IR transmitter. I'm sure most don't use it, but I love that feature, and no case is worth losing it.
Add one for the Spigen Slim Armor. Between that and a tempered glass protector, my phone looks as good as the day I got it.
Spigen slim armor is sick. And the zerolemon glass screen protector gives my phone all the protection I need. Only downfall is it covers ur ir blaster if ur into that
Sent from my Insanely powered M8 using Tapatalk
I've had the speck candyshell since day one. And it's great. Doesn't add much to the size of the phone, but has protected it from many drops.

Also using spigen slim armor. Has the right amount of bulk that the phone feels secure and safe. Slight raised on the front to protect the screen (dropped face down recently w/o a screen protector and still good! ��).

I love my Supcase as well and have no problem with the it. In fact I received two or three extra ir blaster inserts.
UAG
I'm a fan of the UAG cases. I use the Aero (blue) one, and it looks really sharp, IMO.
Not too bulky, and very durable.

Just bought the incipio dual pro and I'm loving it. I can tell it'll protect against most common drops that are likely to happen (ex. walking outside and dropping it on the pavement). It's around $16 on amazon depending on what color you get. I got the blue for $19

I have both the spigen slim armor and the supcase hybrid. Both looks good but if u want to retain some of the m8 aesthetics you should go for the supcase. I like the supcase better as it gives balance. Offers drop protection with very minimal bulk and shows off some of the m8 design. Spigen on the other hand will give u better drop protection but is too bulky for me.. Covers the entire phone!
Sent from my HTC One_M8
I'd be all over the slim armor if it didn't block the IR blaster. I use the Bearmotion case--not much protection from a drop, but adds a ton more grip and i can set the phone down on it's back.
http://www.amazon.com/Bear-Motion-H...413741832&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=bearmotion+m8
Have had a bunch of cases for the M8, the two best were the spigen slim armor and the UAG. The UAG is the better of the two in my opinion.
The slim armor is a good case, but I found it made the phone way heavier than any other case I have tried, plus the back gets scratched very easily. I don't care about the IR blaster, but if you do the slim armor blocks it. I also found the case seemed to scratch the hell out of the edges of the phone. You don't notice until you take off the case, but I am not the only one that has notice that happen.
The UAG doesn't add much to the weight of the phone and I found the shape of the case is easier to hold than the slim armor. Only downside to the case is I find the material used to be a little slippery, but not enough that it bothers me. Also, if you are into I would say the industrial look of the UAG might not fly with you.
Really the thing that pushed me away from the slim armor was the weight, it felt like it doubled the weight of the phone. It actually made me more nervous to drop my phone, thinking that the weight of the case would make the impact worse.
Love the Supcase.

Cases for leather back

Anybody knoe of any releases of the cases for the leather back option?
theres a clear plastic one that ive seen.
is there any other?
Almost didn't order the leather back for this reason of not finding a case. But when I saw T-Mobile having leather back for the same price as plastic back I ordered the leather. Ebay sells the leather back covers for like $60, so I figured that like saving $60.
But now I can't find a compatible clear case for the leather back either! Crap.
If anybody finds one leather compatible on Amazon.com please post it here!!
I ordered this one in green. It is compatible with leather back... So it says
I'll update once I get my phone and put it on

I hear there are bumper cases. Its like a case but for the edges. So I guess if you have a leather back that can cushion the blow. And the bumper can protect corner falls and maybe front if its think enough

It's just to much bulk/case for me, and covers my colors, I am leaning towards the Ringke FUSION in crystal clear as simple, clean, clear, and claims to cover leather.

Hard to resists for that money.

Bad news the Verus is NOT compatible with leather back phones. Total misprint on amazon site

A case? Really?
So you buy a phone with an awesome leather backing and you put it in a case? What sense does that make? Am I the only one who will put a glass screen protector on my lg and enjoy the phone properly.
He wasn't sure if he'd like the leather but bought it since it was free (essentially) and figured worse case he'd get plastic later. We took advantage of free trial amazon prime to order everything so just decided to order in bulk.
Coming from the m8 the only thing I really miss are the speakers... But the speaker on the G4 is actually better than I figured it'd be

Agreed... BUT you can buy bumpers (just around the edge and raised lip) and/or clear cases like what I link to so you can see the leather.
I do not intend to use a case, BUT there are times and activities I participate in where a case can be nice, so I like to have one just "in case" (no pun intended).

Yea I agree it is a risk. I do have insurance but I will try to get a bumper case if I find the right one. I just figure if I intended on getting a case I personally would go with the non leather backs. Either way it looks like it is a terrific phone and I hope it has a ton of development.

By the way I am glad to see you getting this phone as I have run your roms and appreciate your work. Thank you!

What cases is everyone using?

Exactly what the title asks.
This is not a thread for what you think is the best N5X case out there. This thread is for you to post what case/s you use and your experience with it.
It is also to help other users find new cases that they may like.
Maybe include a link if you think it's good.

Spigen Air Cushion CLEAR: http://amzn.to/1NS1asB
I purchased one of these. They fit perfectly and is the thinnest case that I can find. It's a matte finish so there's plenty of grip. My only gripe is the shipping time. It took roughly 2 weeks for delivery.

I have both the Adopted case (perfect cutouts and fit) and the black Diztronic slim fit case. I like the Diztronic case more and it's what I use.

How's the grip on that case compared to the naked phone? It looks quite thin in the pictures which is what I'm looking for.

The grip is almost exactly like the naked phone. If I had to give it a scale from 1-10 (10 being naked phone grip) it would fall around 7-7.5.
Here's 2 pictures of the case on my phone. Sorry for the ****ty pic, It's a random camera I found in the office.

To add to the thread, I'm using the Diztronic case now that I've received the modified version with proper mic holes.
Case is fairly bulky as expected but their matte plastic is some of the best in the business and the grip is top notch.
I'm hoping to find an ultra thin case with little to no lip, such as the official LG made Hardshell (or Shield) case for the Nexus 5.

Oh wow that looks almost exactly like the N5 case I was talking about. Thanks for sharing!
I found a seller on Canadian side of Amazon as well, but no from the U.S site. Odd.

When I bought my hardshell for my N5 it came from Canada as well, didn't see a U.S seller for a couple months after. I hope this one has the same feel and thinness to it.

I have Tudia Ultra Slim Full-Matte case for my phone. Have it for 2 weeks. I like it, it fits perfectly + all the ports/hols are there.

I got the Spigen Thin fit case. Good grip, a protective lip and adds very little bulk: http://www.spigen.com/collections/nexus-5x/products/nexus-5x-case-thin-fit?variant=6502712001
Spigen thin fit, barely know it's there. Also, a tempered glass screen protector.

I'm using incipio ngp case

Enjoying it so far
This is a CaseMe Nexus 5X leather folio case. I got it for $10 on eBay. Thought I was going to get something lower quality for $10 but this case is actually solidly built, well stitched, and has a good feel to it.
