Metal Case now available for TD2 - Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories

Hi everyone,
I'm overprotective of my devices, so once I saw this I bought it.
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000630&products_id=17582
It comes in black or silver and with or without a transparent plastic protection over the screen.

nice case. but the thing i don't understand about these cases is that they do not protect the screen, so they are farily useless right ? I mean you can't chuck the phone in you bag with this case ?

There are 2 models of PDAir aluminum case: one with plastic protective screen, and another without the protective screen.

PDAir: How long does shipping take?

I have used pdair before - very fast service 6 working days from date of order to delivery in the uk - have had 2 cases in the past - both excellent

Thanks, i've just ordered this one:
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000630&products_id=18869 (silicon case)

When someone gets his, can he please post his feedback? Is it comfortable in your pocket, is it metalic from the inside (hence may hurt the device), etc...

disappointed ... zoom bar covered!
terrible!

How did you like the PDair silicone case?

Look at this posting and pictures in this swiss forum. The last one is from PDair.
At the pictures the color seems to be sort of grey, but in reality it is darker. Looks and feels fine .

Silicone Case Suggestion?

I have one right now... but it's a cheap one from Ebay. When I first bought it, it fit real nice and tight but now over a month or two it's getting loose and slides around a bit.
Anyone have any suggestions? I'm looking for the following:
1. It doesn't expose the metal part of the camera on the back cover.
2. Fits snug on the phone indefinitely (is this possible?).
... and if possible one that isn't really sticky.
Thanks!
Silicon case!
I was bought one silicon case on HTC STORE http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=176956 and is great. Cost 20$.
hi, i have a clear one of these, think i would buy the grey next time. its also a cheap ebay item. its very snug, not as flexible (which makes removal a bit of an effort) and nowhere near as sticky as some silicon cases.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Soft-Silicone...h=item110357833639&_trksid=p4634.c0.m14.l1262
hope this helps
Yeah i bought one of those that bl1nky recommended. The only thing i can say is that the fit around the bezel edge is not as good as other 'softer' silicon covers.
In my case particularly, the right hand edge is badly formed and seems to pull away from the HD bezel.
In addition i find that locating and using the power switch to be troublesome and it's this that i find most annoying.
My personal quest for the perfect case continues....
Thanks for the suggestions... I'm also in the search of a perfect case. You wouldn't think it would be this hard!
I am using this from boxwave. The fit is nice and not sticky. I went with the clear one.

They look the same from what I can tell in the pictures... but you never know on Ebay it could be a cheaper knock-off of the original. I don't know because I haven't purchased the one from Ebay. I will be getting mine today or tomorrow from Boxwave and I'll take some pics of it and stuff and update here.
Is it the non-transparent one with small camera hole? (I'm in the boarding shcool where ebay is locked) If so, it's good, but rather thick, good for protection, but will make your HD thicker (around 16mm). If not, just remove this post.

Ok so I got the case and have been using it for two days now. It is pretty damn nice actually. It fits well, not too tight and not too loose either. It's not sticky like the cheap Ebay one I have so I can easily slide it in and out of my pocket. I got the smoke color. It's clear and shiny so it suits the HD well. I like being able to see the phone through the case as well.
can try this silicon case from Capdase
CW any pics mate ??
i got the silicon case from ebay and its not a tight fit.come off very easily. am now on the hunt for another case. there is a case for the iphone which is a plastic case but a rubberised finish.

The silver hard case with kickstand and the pink plaid hard case are available to purchase under accessories. Stores are less likely to have them (ours has never gotten any). The gel like cases are not yet available anywhere.

Can you please post some pictures of your gel case? I am very pleased t-mobile has finally started making these cases available.
I am sure with the case being gel that it is nice and thin.
Does your case protect the front of the phone? Is it 1(?) piece?
----
Better?
Yes that was written from the phone w=1 lol. are the pics in the first post pics of the case?
From the way that the case looks like in the pics above, I must say that it looks great. Does'nt seem like there is too big, if not any, of a gap between the top and bottom half of the phone.
Only problem I had with this case that I tried on in the store was that it's very difficult to slide the keyboard out fully because of the tabs. I've tried this with the gel case and the clear case. This sucks a lot because it's going to scratch the phone over a long period of time.

i like it a lot. the sides are hard but the rest is gel. There is a slight very slight gap between the 2 peices but it looks good. I like how they didnt cut holes for the camera volume and lock button yet they are stll easy to push.

I would have gotten the case but that was my major concern about the case. As of now I have it running naked with the belt clip from the T-Mobile store. I ordered the Zagg Invisible Shield and will just put it on and leave it at that.

TPU hybrid case

I bought the white and black case.. they don't look bad at all... I have to be patient because its coming from Hong Kong..
What do u guys think? I got them at eBay.. just put tpu hybrid case and they will show up.
Five cases plus screen protector for 9.95 on ebay.. here is the link,

colors are Black, Blue, Purple,White, Pink

Looks awesome but I dont think they are hybrids are they? It looks like just pure TPU with some texture on the sides. I've seen these "S Style" cases quite a few times recently.
Yeah, they are not hybrid cases. It's pure TPU. Since its a Chinese seller he probably doesn't understand the meaning of the word correctly. A hybrid would have a PC outline or rib cage, this has neither.
edit: maybe it does have PC? The right side certainly could be, or it could just be matte TPU. The reason I'm thinking its pure TPU is the description mentions nothing about PC, only TPU.

This is the description,
100% New TPU Gel Case Quantity: 1 Offer instant all around protection from scratches Constructed from smooth, treated rubber that resists dirt and stains TPU, also known as thermoplastic polyurethane, is more cut and tear resistance over rubber This gel case made from a special tough gel, which makes it flexible like a silicone but tougher than a crystal case Compared to silicone skins, this skin is stiffer to the touch, but remains flexible Unique design allows easy access to all buttons, controls & ports without having to remove the skin. Color:BLACK Material: TPU Rubber Accessory only, the cell phone is not included
I don't know much about tpu cases but they look awesome
Shoot that $3 a case is a good deal, just wish it'd arrive before the estimated dates of july 21st and august 3rd.

That's a good point. You're paying a really low price for something with next to no customer support or return policy. You get what you pay for I guess.

I don't think its a one piece anymore. I initially did, but I'm pretty sure now the right side is PC and the left is TPU, which would make it a two piece.

They were available on eBay before the P6800 were even officially released. I got one and it fits very well, but using the Samsung book case now.
There is lot of them there for very cheap:

How flexible would you say this case is? I'm deciding between this one and a silicon case myself. I'd like something more flexible than a plastic hard case, but not as floppy as silicone.

dont worry about that,quality really good. cant be break easy,and feel nice when you hold it,smooth put on face.
I have the Smasung OEM case and it works beautifully....for me I think covering the screen is more important than covering the aluminium back. The first perceived issue with the OEM case "flap" is really not an issue at all as mine has never flapped open becuase of the way it is carried. In edition, it can be positioned in either landscape or portrait mode. It is a good idea to keep the rubber grip edge on the case clean so it continues to grip any surface. This device is such a beautiful design that I find the Samsung case compliments it very well.

TPU stands for Thermoplastic Polyurethane, it's a different material from silicone.
Generally firmer and has a more rigid structure.

If you're looking for our skins to add a little extra grip, we can recommend the following:-
Black Leather
Carved Charcoal
Sahara Concrete
Aged Oak
Silverblack Wood
Black Carbon
Black Camo
Brushed Metals
Hope this helps. It may be worth checking out our insta too
Clear Matte; Back and Camera Protector Skins
I ordered from XtremeSkins.
someone FINALLY released proper Mate 20 X skins. I wish they had these ready to go at the launch of the phone.
I ordered the Clear Matte; Back and Camera Protector from them.
Took about 2 weeks from their place in UK to Canada.
Attached some pics, the fitment/clearance of the cuts are much better than anything on Aliexpress and Ebay. Trust me, I've been using those crappy ones until I got these.
The worst/ most inaccurate cut out for the Skins that came to me is the Fingerprint cut out. but its not that bad.
Hope this helps.

I bought a skin from Xtreme skins and it was only for the back. The video they show is quite misleading as it shows protection for the sides too. Was very disappointed. Basically a screen protector for the back!

Hi, it's a shame you feel this way because at no point in our installation video or product page, do we mislead you as the customer. It's clearly evident that we don't cover the sides on this device. We only ever cover the glass portion.
