amCase Hybrid Bumper Case - One (M8) Accessories

I've been using this amCase Hybrid Bumper case for around a week now. I LOVE it. I came from a similar supcase and this one just feels better in the hand in terms of grip and button tactility.
I also have the screen protector....very clear without the rainbow effect!
I suggest anyone try it out! It's currently only $6 on amazon for the case and screen protector each!

Looks slim fitting round the edges then others of similar style. Does it add much bulk?

Nope, it is very slim in comparison to other cases like it. I was surprised at how good it is for the price

I got this case for .01 cents on Amazon thanks to someone on the forums here. I freakin love this case! I originally bought a case from Best Buy for $34.99.. PSSSHHH.. this blows that out of the water.. price? $2.00 included shipping! Scratches? None. The one at Best Buy was full of them right in the packaging even. It was the only case they had at the time since the M8 was brand new.
Adds a little bulk to the phone, but it's not bad.. it's not a crappy iPhone! Those things look like bricks.

Sadly doesn't seem to be available in UK

The term "bumper case" must not mean what it used to.

"Bumper" cases came in around the time of the iPhone 4 with antennagate. Purely a case which surrounds the edges only. No back.

I was just defining what a bumper style case used to be. Even in later iPhone models where antennagate issues were fixed, Apples Bumper case spawned a whole line of similar style cases for iPhone and other handsets. Companies like Spigen and Draco continued to make bumper cases without rear sections, for design and for edge protection. Latter even made one for the M7 ( http://www.dracodesign.com/draco-one-aluminum-bumper-for-htc-one-m7-black/).
Now it appears a bumper case can mean anything. Bumper to me always suggests "around the edge or extremity". The bumper on a car is at the edges. The bumper in a pinball machine is an edge.
Phones still have antennas dude. They just might not be wrapped around the edges!

He he yup!
I kinda miss not having a "phone of the masses" as the range of cases for iPhone is virtually without limits. Spigen did some really nice true bumper cases made up of two parts one part soft bumper with a harder plastic outer bumper you slipped over the softer one.
Guess it'd be harder to create a bumper for the M8 given its slimmer profile and more rounded off edges. The iPhone was quite squared.

Back when I had my iPhone 4/4s I used to be amazed at how much people spent on their phones protection, it even got to the point where they were buying protection for their cases.

Diztronic, love it!

I bought directly from the site of the seller.
I've been a user of this case since my last phone (HTC Evo LTE). The case did me really well on that phone and it was slim on form factor. Protector was also very good on the previous phone as I've dropped it couple times with the phone in the case. No damage were shown on the case or on the phone. Because of this, I decided that I would choose the same company again if I were to change phones.
This time around, I went with the Samsung Note 2 as an upgrade to my previous phone. The case wasn't announced when I got the phone, but soon after they decided to make the case. I bought it the second day it was announced through the owners site. Case arrived quickly and the quality is still superb. If you check this listing, there's a few photos that I posted which represented the case. When you lay the case flat with the phone inserted, it's basically the same thickness as the Evo LTE with the phone in a diztronic case. Adds very very minimal bulk which doesn't affect the usability.
The back of the case is a matte finish. This matte finish actually allows the user to grip the phone better. That's not just it, the finish also reduces all fingerprints and dust particles.
Phone cutouts are all perfect and aligned to the spot. Power button and volume buttons use a soft silicon touch. It's covered, but in no way does it affect the touch. I can still easily press those buttons and the phone would respond to my action.
Overall, great case! Price is right! Go for it!
Im pretty pleased with mine too even though I normally dont use tpu protectors. It has a really nice feel and the sides seem like they provide substantial protection. No real complaints from me. I know diztronic has a great reputation and this was my first case from them so im happy.

Im on the same boat!! I detest silicone and TPU cases as they are flimsy and stretchy, causing plenty of dusts to get trapped inside and scratch the device. But when I saw this case on Diztronic site I was very amazed so I ordered one. It arrived fairly fast despite the holiday seasons for US to Australia. Been using for 2 days and have to say, the best TPU case I've ever seen. The texture is very very nice, matte and really nice to touch and hold, raised lips to protect the screen, cover all the buttons (my favourite features), compact and thin enough but still have a decent protection from it. I'm very happy with this case, by far the best case I've got for Note 2 yet.
The only thing they should improve is to stick with matte texture all the way rather than having the raised lips/edges in glossy texture. And the seams could use some clean up.
Perhaps. I kinda like the edges with the smooth finish. Feels good when I need to stretch fingers across the whole phone.
One other plus I noticed is it seems to not get stretched easy. As I said this is my first Diztronic case so I'm sure others already know, but I've taken it on and off about 5 times and it still fits tight.

I think it's pretty firm on my end. I don't seem to loose control of it when it's in my hand.
I just want to pipe in and say I really like the Diztronic tpu case on my note 2. I used their cases on my Galaxy Nexus and was very happy. They add very little weight and size to the phone, yet I feel like my phone has pretty decent protection. My Galaxy Nexus still looks brand new, even though I dropped it a few times. I've dropped my note 2 one time and it still looks perfect.

Can't wait to get mine. I been thru quite a few cases hope this is the last one, it seems to fit all the criteria.
Diztronic is my preferred case-maker. Good quality, decent prices, great fit and feel. Can't ask for more than that.
Quick question on people who has it, I checked out the bodyglove case from sprint, and while it fits nice the sides were flimsy, does the diztronic fit nice and tight on the sides?

[Q] Cases you are using

I am curious to what cases people are using and recommend. I am currently uaing otterbox case I bought when I got my phone and the corners are starting to peel back a bit, so I feel like I need a new case. In my area they don't have much for good protection cases that aren't to expensive.
I'm using the poetic atmosphere case. It has a little lip that lifts the screen off a table when face down, decent grip, and full back coverage. All while being really slim. I had a problem with my first one coming apart, but poetic sent me a brand new case that was "improved". And I don't think they were lying, the new case holds tight to the phone and is staying together nicely. Plus, they are cheap on Amazon.

I've got the Cimo Grip back in frosted clear, and my wife has the amCase with bumper(because it is pink ) I like the Cimo and have heard good things about the Poetics, I will say though that the amCase one doesn't have the power cut out so you cannot use the IR blaster. Altough it is easy to cut out with an exacto knife or the like.

Which otterbox? I am using the commuter and haven't had a single problem.
I use Seidio surface cases on any phone I get. Mainly because they don't add much bulk, offer good protection and come with a belt clip. My phones always look brand new when I sell them a year or 2 later.

Seidio Surface with kickstand. Love it
I'm using the body glove case that I got at the sprint store. Its nice and thin.
poetic atmosphere during the weekends and an otterbox commuter or defender during the work week if im out on jobs with my employees.
Just some cheap case for 3.99 from ebay, works well enough that screen does not touch when facing down and as well as the camera. IR blaster works and volumes buttons are easy to press.
I'm using the two tone original HTC case. Sexy as hell. Protects the phone nicely.

Thanks all for the feedback. I will look into all these cases and see if any spark my liking. the corners on my case are kinda starting to bug me, I don't know why, but it does.
I just got this case about a week ago. Pretty solid so far.

Exact Prism clear case (similar to Supcase's Hybrid Bumper Case) review with pics

I saw earlier that this case I recently got looks very similar to the SUPCASE hybrid bumper case posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2706539
Thought I'd post some pictures then and a quick review, since this case is a few bucks cheaper than the SUPCASE after shipping costs and everything, so you guys can get a deal on a preeeeeetty good case. All the cut-outs are where they need to be, the bumper TPU looks glossier than most TPU that are matte, and the HTC One's back looks slick as ever in the clear back window. Can't ask for much more in a case under ten bucks.

HTC One M8
Just got this case. So far my favorite case. I have the Hyperion, the cimo, the dot view but so far this is my favorite.
I got this case as well, in black. The top and bottom lips are loose like someone mentioned and quite a bit of dust gets under it . Overall the case looks pretty sleek and the clear back definitely shows off the nice metallic look. However, I feel that the case adds quite a bit of weight to the phone. Maybe I'm just used to the cruzerlite bugdroid cases as I've had on my older phones. Does anyone have both the exact prism and the cruzerlite cases and able to comment on their thoughts? :laugh:
Ah, thanks for the review. I have the Supcase one and it also has the problem with the top and bottom lips being a little loose. I wonder if these are all the same cases with just different logos slapped on the back? I dunno... I also ordered the amCase deal, on it's way. Curious to see if that one's any better.

I don't think anyone will be better than the other.. If you ask me they are probably all made in the same plant(or few plants) just some are stamped with the individual company logo and some are not. There are also a bunch of the same type of case on ebay with no brand name. I mean a lot of these cases that these companies brand are just generic cases from China.

My cheapo amCase came in today... It's basically the same design as all the others, but the back is a matte frosted plastic which actually makes the phone more awkward to hold, it's a little slippery. Basically the same exact tpu bumper, but mine has slightly more sag at the top and bottom lips. I like the way the glossy Supcase feels... will keep the amCase as a $2 spare, lol.
Just picked one up... Definitely like how it shows off my Amber Gold while protecting my device. I don't like how hard it is to get the phone in and out of the case.

I have this same case in the same color. My only issue with this case is the volume control buttons are a little stiff. I hope that will fix itself when the case gets broken-in. I love how this case shows off the body of the M8 through the clear back.
I like the quality of the side's. Would love an all matte case. All I've found have a matte back with glossy sides.

I've seen one by Griffin, has the matte sides, but a glossy back, lol. Saw it at an unofficial Verizon store, was $24.99, which is obviously a lot for a case like this. The sales guy opened it up for me, the matte sides were actually kind of slippery, no grip to them.
Nice review, thanks. Just worried as people seem to complain about the gap on the top and bottom. Luckily they're cheap so no big loss if I didnt like it
In your opinion, this the best clear case out there?
I can't really say, as I haven't tried all the cases. However, evidence points to this case being generic and is identical to clear cases from other brands. The Exact Prism case is at a good price though, so I would wholly recommend it, despite the looser fit.
Anyone have the white/clear one? I was wondering if the white stains

Running Naked

Hey guys got my new HTC One M in Silver and keeping it naked. Just added a Zagg Glass protector i got at Best Buy. Wanted to start a thread discussing how is life using a naked phone. Any sleeves being used? Or skins. I was thinking about getting the back of phone sprayed with plastidip for some grip but i dint its a good idea. I'm hoping for a nice slim aluminum case to come out to take advantage of mods on that instead of the phone.
Those that are interested in sleeves or some leather premium feel should check out storyleather. I have a link down below.
http://www.storyleather.com/smart-phone-cases/htc-one-m8.html
I'm currently waiting for the dodocase sleeves as well but storyleather has customizations with color and size if you have a thin case or thick screen protector.
Hey, in go naked when not at work, keep it in a clean front trouser pocket. But it is extremely slippery. I use the freebie case that it came with, at work. I ordered a quicksand tpu case that is very grippy. I had one on my last htc (one x +), I liked it because it's slim. But prefer naked when I can.

Yea i hear you, alumimium is bit soft in the metal department so its a bit scratch prone. A pair of keys and htc one in the same pocket would make your phone look like it came out of a cat fight.

Solid case right here.... i went naked the first week, but the phone is just too slippery to have out in the elements....
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hyperion-HT...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item43c7d9ba6e
Anyway, I got it in smoke and the case is just the right amount of clear to still show off my black M8.. plus the back is a little "frosted" so it adds the perfect amount of grip. The buttons are cutout, not bumps on the case, which also helps me not press volume up/down when pulling it out of my pocket. (noticed i did that a lot). The case has a bit of a hardened bumper to brace the phone.
Have mine a TPU case, dropped my phone at a ball game and found the volume UP button has a nice dent in it now and doesn't work anymore. Fun.
Easily best TPU case money can buy for the M8 IMHO - http://www.cruzerlite.com/cases/htc/one-m8-2014/bugdroid-circuit-case-for-htc-one-m8-2014
Smoke color is perfect.
This case has served me well for the $1.65 I paid for it.
Super thin and has the rubberized coating on the back.
What's the best clear case out there? TPU or hard plastic (I prefer hard plastic, to be honest)
I like to go naked. It ain't pretty.

Hehe
I've never used a case and never had a problem. Most cases are kinda ugly to me, but the M8 has some good looking ones. I'll still be going without it though because I'm going to once again get the car dock like I did for my M7 and my Sensation, and a case won't work in there. I hate the bulky universal docks so I get the nice slim HTC one that you can just slide the phone right into and have it secure and charging.
I am using the Spigen clear case although I prefer the phone naked.
I did put a matte clear skin on the phone to prevent scratches, but you lose the nice feel of the aluminum.
The gunmetal is very susceptible to scratches. I already have a handful of minor scratches but they can only be seen at a certain angle. I think I'm still gonna use it naked and just use a case when at the gym. After a year if the back is really messed up I'll just replace the back with a new one. Etradesuoply has them for $50 and it's fairly straightforward on ifixit on how to remove the back. The only thing I'm not sure on is the NFC tag

No case for now as I have a skin on it from bestskinsever. Bit of a pain to put on but worth it.

Supcase unicorn beetle pro

Just picked up the unicorn beetle pro (the otter box level one ) and just wanted to say it is a great case, I'm not much for writing reviews but can answer any questions if anyone else was looking at this case. It seems super durable, it's thick but reasonably so, the ir /power button has a clear cover so it still functions. The rubber sides are much harder than an otter box and don't pull on and off when you pull it from your pocket like some other cases.

I'll add to the positive reviews of this case. I ordered it early through Amazon so I too got it at a great price figuring I had very little to lose. I'm extremely pleased with most aspects of this case. I'm coming from an M7 with a UAG case so I have something good to compare this case to. Best things about this case are:
-built-in screen protector with tacky back. this keeps the plastic protector in constant contact with the screen so not air gaps like LifeProofs iPhone case
- completely covered plastic power button. much better IMO than UAG's slotted rubber button because it provide tactile feedback
-port covers. keeps the dust out
-very little metal is exposed. the camera lenses on back have the typical case protection but I really like the plastic around the speaker grills. looks good and looks like it'll provide adequate protection from most anything short of extreme sports
The only thing that I don't like is that the back of the case has a slight curve to it versus the flat back of the UAG case. But I figure this is why the Unicorn Beetle doesn't feel so bulky.
I was planning on only using this case for when I'm doing yard work, hiking, or playing in the park but I'm happy enough with it at this point that I'll likely leave it on most of the time. It's a great value, even at the current price. I will watch the price closely on this and probably pick up another one if the price drops.
Here we go!
I popped out the plastic screen cover and removed the residue. Case still fits great with my Nillkin Glass screen protector!
The other case is the regular Unicorn Beetle so you can see the size difference.
Sorry delete
Yeah built in screen protector is not that bad but doesn't work well with a wet apply style below it as I had one on mine , they stick together. I'm going to order a glass one and pop out the plastic eventually but the built in is good enough for now

Gestures
Got the case today, and seems like a pretty stout case. I removed my clear plastic as I have a SpartanShield screen protector on it. Customized it a little to my needs... Added mesh on the speakers. It didn't mess with the FFC much, but has a slight difference. I need this mesh as I'm a machinist, and have always had to dig out metal shavings. My main concern is since I've installed this case I havent had much luck with getting gestures to work. It seems like sometimes it doesn't work at all, and other times it seems fine. Didn't know of anyone has had this experience yet.
I haven't had any issues with the touchscreen, but I have a glass screen protector. Loving this case so far. Very well made. Way better than my Otterbox Commuter.

Got the case today, and seems like a pretty stout case. I removed my clear plastic as I have a SpartanShield screen protector on it. Customized it a little to my needs... Added mesh on the speakers.

Did you remove the plastic screen protector before applying the case? If not, did the glass screen protector cause a gap between the plastic around the speakers?
Edit: Whoops never mind. just saw your previous post about the screen protector
I wanted to buy? what do you think?
this would be a great work case, mych more sturdy then just aplain clear case
My baby well protected even IR blaster work
