I found one on eBay, and I know a few people here have bought cases from the same seller. I'm just wondering about the practicality of the cover flap (see attachment) that hangs down during phone calls. Probably a shallow question, but I dunno how tough the leather might be; is it easy enough to fold the flap over, or do you guys just leave it hanging down?
you just leave it hanging down....
A top flip would be better?
Here's my venture into cheap ebay cases ..

Hi,
I bought a Krussell case from first2save on Ebay and am very impressed with it... I also have a horizontal case from the seller you mention but was never happy with the belt clip.
Regards,

leather case
The beauty with the Leather case with flip is that it virtually eliminates the annoying mis dialing so easy on the HTC HD as the case has a hard protector that makes it touch proof
I have a Krusell Orbit Flex from which you can remove the lid; works perfect

Just wanted to share with everyone.
I've had the Krusell Handit Multidapt® Case for a week now.
http://www.krusell.se/product.php?productID=1816&category=16
I have tried about 3-4 cases (through the company supplier ) and I have been disappointed as many times, as they are usually bulky, hard to take off, too big, or plain and simple unusable!
This case is beautiful:
* Easy to put on and take off
* Very light and not bulky at all
* Unit is actually usable when in case
It's around 50$AU from expansys.com.au and I would highly recommend it.
Wow, that one is NICE! I wonder if I can get it in the US some how....
Edit:
Found it and ordered it!

I uses piel frama it is the same but a little bit more slim .
I thought the Krussell was a little bulky also. The case from Sena allows the device to be cradled.

I bought that case off eBay about a year ago for my SX66 -- IIRC, I paid less than $25 for it. It's held up very well over the months.
Is there clear plastic over the keyboard?
Yes, there is clear plastic over the keyboard.
i have been using this case since day 1.
I am using Krusell Multidapt leather case. It prevents you from flip opening the front cover while calling. It is a good case.
Can it prevent the edge or side of my sx66 from scratching?

For me the best case that i found is the Brando Leather Case it protects all around the Qtek XDA IIs and i can use the keyboard and with it closed i can accept incomin calls !!
See it at http://shop.brando.com.hk/bwxdaIIsleatherhardcase.php
Bought it At Ebay !!
how is the piel frama case designed?
must it go between the gap of the monitor and the keyboard?
if it is so designed, will it not make the screen slider loose? anyone?
did anyone used a vertical wallet case type before? does it fits the phone good? like the one in http://www.krusell.se/productUni.php?productID=1756&category=33
I am confused, which case to get for my xda2s.
I have been looking at cases for my HD and have not had much luck. I found a Motorola Q case that was a good fit but it was ugly. I almost bought it until I found another one but it had a very strong closure magnet and I though I would ask here first to see if there was any chance of harm to the devise from the magnetic field.
Thanks, dhatw.
I buy a new kaiser belt holster to use with THD. It fits well (when the band are not stretched). Not trusting those magnet thingy next to electronics.
yeah me too dont recommend pouches with Magnetic locks. it ruined my Diamond.
ehm . . . .??? the stylus is magnetic . . . . . right???

Just bought a an expensive Piel Frama Leather Pouch for HD which has magnet ...
Well I have asked and searched and it seems that the opinions are split. I even spoke to HTC America and the dude said that he wouldn't recommend anything stronger than the magnet in the stylus. Now he has to say that but there might as well not be a magnet in the stylus because it is so weak. I read some where that the magnet in the speaker is more powerfull than the ones used in the cases but I do not have confirmation. I found a perfect case for the HD, it is for the Motorola Q but it has a strong (relatively speaking) magnet. I put a dinner knife on the inside of the bare case and it stuck pretty good. I am having a hard time with finding a good case that closes strongly but does not have magnets or velcro with degrades with time and sticks to everything.

I bought the new "Krussel - Orbit Flex" Case, made for HTC Touch HD.
http://krusell.se/products/1/?catid=75&productid=3622
It's a good quality and the price is okay. I got it in Germany for round about 20 EUR's, incl. tax, but it seems that krussell offers around the world. The case can be close with a little magnet at backside. Special features are the removable front lid and the multi - adapt - clip at backside.
The company give a "live-time warrenty" for this product.

Sorry for the late reply.
i bought a pouch with a magnetic closure for my new diamond. i used it for only half a day. my touch screen stopped responding from there onwards. but after couple of days it start to work again. i never used the pouch again.
also i can remember my touch dual waking up when i swipe it across the magnet and it sometimes automatically answered the phone in the process of taking out of a pouch with the magnetic closure. so i believe prolonged usage of this type of a pouch may ruin you touch screen devices. so be careful.
on the other hand I've never seen a pouch with a belt clip which doesn't have a magnet on it.. hm.. anybody have any other suggestions for a pouch without a magnet but with a belt clip??
In my quest for the perfect case I have encounterd ones with flaps that slip into straps. Like a belt end. I don't know if that came out right but basically you just slide the top flap into something. Of course there is always velcro, so long as you don't wear sweaters. I settled on a Blackberry knock off that fit the HD perfectly. It has the plastic spring loaded belt clip that I so wanted because they hold more securely than the leather covered belt clips that are on most holders. It does have a magnetic closer however and I have convinced myself after much reseaech that there is no reason to worry.
People, why all the worries about magnets. Old floppy drives are sensitive to magnets, also are physical hard drives. Neither of witch the HD has. It only has flash memory.
And apart from that, ive noticed this piel frama company making pda leather cases for quite some time now, all with magnets... guess they would be out of business right now if it destroyed all the devices that are put inside it eh
Im atleast looking to getting one of those piel frama cases.
My Pielframa have magnets i use it since 2 weeks and no problem at all.
Hi all
I haven't found any topic about this case, so here it is:
I recently bought a Tuff-Luv Executive leather pouch for my HTC HD.
http://www.amazon.fr/Tuff-Luv-Execu...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1235746989&sr=8-1
It is quite good, the phone fits very well in it (the camera hole is a bit too low but it is ok anyway). the phone can still be easily to removed from the case.
And it is one of the few leather cases for that phone, that has a hatch that opens to the lower part of the phone (sorry, can't find the words in English, you can see picture) so this is appreciable.
everything is easy to access: stylus, usb port even when the case is closed , volume control, audio jack. Plus it is less expensive than Noreve and Proporta cases (probably not the same durability, but this I can only tell after a while, as it seems to carry on well for now)
So I would gladly recommend it. Anyone else has this case ?
Hope it works out for you. Looks like a pretty well made case.
I'm still trying a few different cases for my HD.
First was the PDA Air book style but it didn't take too long for me to get concerned the two plastic arms that holds the unit in the case are not that secure. The unit can slide and as it is also a belt clip case last thing I wanted was my new shiny HD sliding out and bouncing on the pavement. :-(
Currently have a two piece case of eBay described as "black rubber". Really more of a plastic than rubber and it will do for the short term as only a few dollars.
Today I ordered a Krusell Orbit case. Has the removable flap which covers the screen. I am hoping that with the main section of the case still on the unit it will still fit in the cradle I have. (My cradle has a bit of space around the unit which I hope will accommodate the case)
Your case look good too but the flap attached to the rest of the case at the base so wouldn't allow the unit to sit in the cradle.
Getting my TP2 tomorrow, but really wondering about this...
Seeing pictures of the leather 'case' that comes with the TP2 elsewhere than in the US, is it the same case without belt clip in the T-Mo US TP2?
If it is, I want to be ready when I pick up my phone to get a belt clip equipped case as well.
Yeah man... the US tp2 comes with a gay looking leather case that has no belt clip. It looks like you have a man purse imo
yeah a man purse that slides into your pocket
You guys weren't lying -- that thing is pathetic. I don't know what the heck HTC was thinking when they packaged that.
The T-Mobile guy was also full of crap when he said they had one with a belt clip. Looks like I'll be doing some shopping online.
Thanks for the heads up on that one!
yes the cases htc give are always junk. i like the bodyguardz skin cases simply because the phone is already kinda thick and it does protect the phone. kinda of a pain to put on but after my 4th attempt throughout the years i think i did my best on the touch pro 2.
nko, does the screen protector part feel rubbery and make the touch screen a little less sensitive? I know it is like that with the Zagg on my friend's iPhone.
Got this hard thick rubberized case at the tmo store. It comes with a snap in/out belt clip if wanted. Seems to fit tp2 very well, and leaves accessible all need openings.
I just used the belt clip that came with my Wing. Fits like a glove!
Hand me downs FTW!
i am still using the case my dash came with for my tp2, it fits.
I just bought me a $5 case with belt clip. I just have to cut a hole for the ear jack. I'm not spending $10+ for a case

Yeah, I think I'm just gonna use the belt clip case that came with my Hermes. It's just a little longer but it fits for now.
Has anyone installed a full body screen protector like the bodyguardz ones? I saw this one on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370244520409&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
But I bought this for the time being: http://cgi.ebay.com/for-HTC-TOUCH-P...ries?hash=item4399b91c94&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 (from what I've heard, these pop off easily)
This is a very delicate process for me. It's a balance between too bulky and too little protection. I want it to be able to survive it's first dreaded drop without cracking the case. I may just try to use both of them at the same time. When I'm doing physical work, I'll put the rubber case on, and when I'm at the desk, just have it out with the clear protector. I just wonder if you can clip on the rubber housing over the clear protector. The perfect thing for me would be to just have a rubber skin that slides over the whole body of the phone because I don't slide the keyboard out much anyway. That way it could be protected when I'm on the move and I can easily take it off when not.
I also bought one of those generic belt clip holders for $5: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310161485996&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT I had one before and their alright. The loops on the back will secure the phone to you if you're moving around but the clip may sag overtime though. I know I'll be replacing it eventually. The HTC OEM cases are much better, but no loops. There's never a perfect solution.
BTW: Does anyone know if the rubber case from the Touch HD will fit?
^^Just ordered one of those this afternoon. Looks similar to one I had before but can't beat $5 and then about $.50 in cashback haha
Currently have xperia x10(hence the forum =), but my case is bothering me greatly. I have a stupid silicon one i bought online, it offers great protection, but makes the phone unattractive and comes off wayyyy to easily. Anybody have any suggestions on a new one? I'm thinking of the otterbox or the incipio one. I'm looking for an attractive case that has somewhat decent protection. Any suggestions?
I have a smoke clear case made of TPU that I got on eBay for just a few dollars (U.S.D.). It's not bulky like the hard plastic or rubberized plastic cases are and it's not sticky like the silicone cases can be. The case itself is bendable and 'rubbery,' but smooth. I think it offers great protection for the price. I've been using it since last year with no problems.
I got mine from an eBay seller named 'dcmugen88.' There are other cases for the X10 that are made of TPU, but the smoke clear one he sells has no designs on it and I like that.
He's selling one now for $3.49 (U.S.D.) and free shipping:
http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-Soft-TPU-...622195?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3a5aed92b3​
Oh...my girlfriend has an HTC EVO 4G with a TPU case too. She recently dropped the phone into water accidentally, and the TPU case kept almost all the water out of the protected areas. Her phone still works perfectly.
I did not like the silicone case, I wonder anyone took his leather case?
I am looking to get the otterbox commuter case but they want $50+ for shipping also... which is too much IMO.... if anybody knows of any sites please let me know....

i use krusell leather case for the x10 and i would recommend it greatly ... the clip system is just great ...especially if you use your x10 as navigation device in your car or for sports on your arm/bike ...
it offers great protection too for normalday use ..

Hi
I purchased a Capdase Alumor Metal Case from mobilefun.co.uk, its a really good fit and feels sturdy, I am very happy with it.
I got one of the silicone cases of of amazon and it is muck, terrible fit.
there arent good cases for x10 out there....
I have used many cases. I am still searching for "thee" case.
So far I have used the silicon, and gel/cases and they are bleh.
I did try a leather case, the Melkco Jacka type case.
http://www.melkco.com/scripts/main/viewitem-SESE10LCJT1BKIT-SE10.html
I really like this case, BUT, and this is a bit BUT, it's poor design.l The phone fits/snaps into place perfectly, however, its a "from the bottom" flip case. The cover, when you flip it over, at the bottom presses the home button. This turns your phone screen on. At this point the cover is now pressing on the home button the entire time the cover is closed. The screen does time out in 5 seconds, however, while in your pocket, it constantly bumps and activate the screen with he slightest touch. Draining battery.
I am about to order this case. So far I have been told it's probably the best case there is for an x10. It's an Incipio case. http://www.myincipio.com/Sony-Erics...on-Xperia-X10-EDGE-Hard-Shell-Slider-Case.asp
What I really want is a Seidio case. Too bad they don't make them for the x10. I have one for my atrix and it;s the best case I have ever had.
