been waiting for this, thanks

Looking at the pictures and specs, this doesn't seem much different from all the other cases that cost no more than half the price. Can someone explain what's better about Otterbox cases?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

is this a bulky case or is it a slim fit design?

Would have liked it to have a white and carbon fiber feel/look to it Like PhantomSkinz Chromatics kind of thing. Hope it's 20$ XD On Amazon. And in White/Carbon fiber.

I was just this thinking this today!
It is a lot better than any case out now...if you haven't had any otterbox case you should get one out. It looks better than any black case I've seen..

Almost bought one for my HD2 but pulled out because I wasn't sure if it was a keeper. I think I will have my G2 for a long time so I'm going for it.

I wish it was a defender series though... much better protection than the commuter series. Hopefully they will release a defender for it soon.

I don't know if they can make one for this phone. Aren't the only phones that get those "one piece" phones?
Does anyone have one of these yet? Too soon to ask that question?

at first look, this $35 otterbox looks very similar to the cheapo $5 ones that's selling everywhere. i'm sure the quality is much better but is it $35 better as the protection is still 2 piece? im curious to see feedback from those who ordered
Its quality over plastic.

Damn, it didn't upload in HD.
I had a very bad hang over while recording.
How is the grip on the commuter series? I'm always afraid that it will slip out of my hands.

Just got mine in. Looks great will post some pics tomorrow.
This is only the second otterbox I have had. The first was a defender for the 3gs. This commuter case is well built and feels and looks great. The only problem I ran into was the first silicone layer was getting pinched at the corner when I was trying to put the outter cover snapped in place. After a few attempts finally got it on and so far so good. Def worth the wait and money.

Is the back made mostly of silicone or hard plastic? Please tell me it doesn't stick to the inside of your pocket!

The back is mostly hard plastic. The only silicone will be at the headphone jack, power button, charging port, and the largest part is volume rocker. The plastic has a great design/look to it. You wont be disappointed. Should be getting some pics up a little later.

I can't WAIT to see some pics of it. I'll probably decide then if I'll purchase it or not

The whole sha-bang

I have about $170 dollars left over from buying christmas presents for my family and cannot think of anything better then decking out my G2 with goodies and accessories.
Things I am looking for specifically.
-screen protector
-desk dock
-car dock
If there is anything else you think I should get feel free to post it.
I have a black tattoo rubberized body case from accessory geeks so I do not need a full body case.
Also where can I buy a replacement aluminum battery door? I put my G2 in the same pocket I put my wallet that has steel accents on it and it scratched the door all to heck.
Thanks to any and all that post.

I'm quite pleased with the arkon car mount I bought. They have all different kinds of mounting options too (suction cup / cup holder / chair bolt / etc).
Won't eat up too much of your fund either: mine was under $20.
One things for sure check out skinomi for screen protectors. Cheap for great screen protectors. Personally I've yet to order mine (doing it this week) but from reviews on the forums. Many XDA members recommend Skinomi. Thin, durable, and according to some. You feel like your the screen protector isn't there.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
The car mount looks sweet, I'm ordering one now.
fancy shmancy case
ohh you got 170 do you?... Well I spoiled my dad with this case from Col. Littleton and I suggest you do the same. Its made in America and there is definitely a quality difference compared to a pleather Made in C$$$. I went with the black one. You can even get it engraved.

PS - yes it fits the G2 perfectly

Case-Mate Tough: 2 thumbs up

I got my Case-Mate Tough and I am really liking it.
The hard outer shell allows for easy removal from pockets, which is huge for me.
Overall, I like it a little more than an Otterbox Defender I had for the iPhone. I feel like it will protect just as well and it is simpler and less bulky. I feel like a normal drop, from a normal height, it will hold up just as well as a Defender.
I would definitely recommend this case.
I ordered one last night. I had it for the Nexus One and loved it. Can't wait for it to get here.
Where did you buy it from and do you have any pics of the case.
Any comments on the included screen protection? I am trying to decide between ordering one of these and waiting for an Otterbox commuter or defender.
Screen protection?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
most screen protectors that come with these cases are garbage, you're better off shelling out a few extra bucks and getting a zagg or clear coat.

Don't guess you looked very hard. My first Google search brought this up:
http://www.case-mate.com/HTC-Desire-HD/Case-Mate-HTC-Desire-HD-Barely-There-Case.asp
$19.99 direct from CaseMate. A little cheaper than on the AT&T site that had them for 24.99 but I don't know about shipping costs.
Got one for the Inspire and one for the HD2, $29.98 total shipped.
Case-Mate site has free 4-6 day shipping.
Thanks for the heads up OP!
i picked one up at work today and it really nice, color me impressed. Still thinking about getting the pop! case from them as well.
Screen protector that came with it is not great but it works. Had a zagg on my first inspire and I didn't like it. I couldn't remove it and reuse it so AT&T has it now, but the spray you put on the film leaves bubbles underneath and that bugged me.

[Q] Amzer Silicone Skin Jelly Case vs TPU Rubber Skin Case

I already have the commuter but feel it's add a little bulk. I would like to know if any of the mentioned above are any good?
I would like to have some protection and with little less bulk.
Or any other case under $10-$15

Amzer is kinda Meh
My buddy has it for the Nexus S and it fits nice but the one for the Inspire is a strange fit. I had to modify around the ear piece so I could comfortably swipe down for notifications. Cheap but there is probably better.
I have the TPU case. Its awesome. best 5 bucks I've ever spent

2 for 5.99 incl. shipping and screen protector (which I didn't try yet since I already had one).
Cannot beat it! It's a great case and even a little bit higher than the camera thus protecting it. Not bulky IMO and not worse than the casemate you can buy from AT&T for 30 bucks.

Had the TPU case for a while on my Inspire. Unfortunately had to take it off because whenever I had it in a pocket the phone would go silent after the case pressed down on the volume buttons. It was almost perfect... Almost. =(

Go with the tpu s wave case we've been telling you about... Awesome!
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
i have to say, especially if you dont mind waiting a little bit, you can get a tpu case from china for super cheap. mine was 69 cents, free shipping. =)
although, i got the casemate tough for $15 new in box free ship on ebay, so maybe just keep an eye open there, you could get a much nicer case within your price range than on amazon!
I got the TPU case... great one for 4 bucks!

Seidio > Otterbox

Looks like Seidio and Otterbox will both be releasing protection for our Sensation 4G devices real soon. IMO, Seidio provides a better product than Otterbox. I've used both, and Seidio to me just seems more stylish for the protection (I'll be buying the Active combo).
http://www.seidioonline.com/category-s/6207.htm
Is there an eta on these? I also was the active combo.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Pretty sure that by the end of this month there will be something... well that's what I hope for.
I'll be going with SURFACE, not that bulky.
They usually have something ready for purchase within a couple of weeks after putting up the "coming soon" spot.
glad to see these companies finally take notice to this device. ill be picking up the otterbox. had one for my nexus and liked it a lot. normally i dont have a handset long enough for some of these companies to put out a quality case (besides the generic gel ones)
I considered otter, but need a holster for work.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
I also prefer Seidio...
Been waiting for Seidio...hope to see something real soon
I had seidio on my nexus one and liked it alot since it was the case and the holder. Am curious about otterbox but don't want anything too bulky.
Will probably just stick with seidio since I used them before.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
I got the Gelli case from Case Mate and love it. I was worried about it feeling cheap but it's not at all - it's very firm and streamlined and looks nice without adding bulk. It also covers the volume rocker and power buttons which is good cause the crooked power button was really annoying me; it makes it feel more solid.
I've used Seidio for a few years now. I like their products but build quality doesn't look as good as Otterbox. Otterbox makes bulkier cases that are more expensive. Seidio is a step up from ebay generic junk. The only reason I haven't bought anything from Otterbox is that I usually have to take my phones out of their cases to use car docks (HTC OEM docks) and that takes too long with Otterbox.
i hope they built a good case this time because the case they built for the mytouch 4g was horrible!
I love Seidio's InnoCases with their awesome spring-clip belt clip. Can't wait.

Weird the black Active cases aren't ready yet, but the other colored ones are.
Just ordered the Sapphire Blue Active Combo with the 15% discount. I really want the Trident Aegis but the holster seals the deal cuz I hate stuff (except money) in my pockets.
All cases are now live fellas! Dont forget the summer11 code for 15%. Black Active combo...here I come!
and no TPU in the case.
