Hi there,
Im looking for thin case.
Best I have found is this case on ebay
Design is not bad, but its not covering glass area around the camera.
Questions:
1. Is there any thin case(plastic, rubber) that covers that?
2. Anyone tried skins? Will they remove easily(considering phone is jeans pocket)?
3. Those who are using various rubber, gel, hybrid and so on cases, how much fatter is your phone with them? If its not that much fatter suggestions on good cases then

I have tried them all, best case is either the capdase brand or official HTC TPU case. They both let your phone slide into your pocket easy, don't bulk out your phone, look great and offer good protection.
The Ebay jobs are just cheap rubbish you get fed up with after a week or 2.

Look up the Kraken AMS. That is a reasonable case.
Alternatively just look for something like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLACK-HAR...sesPouches&hash=item3a6a2fac16#ht_1887wt_1396
Best thing about this type of case is it doesn't add too much bulk, and is easy to get in and out of your pocket (unlike a silicone/rubber case). And it will actually protect your phone in a drop unlike that case you linked to in your original post. As for your screen... only BIG cases include a plastic layer to completely cover the glass.
Are you just looking for something with raised edges, and then use a screen protector perhaps? (Like the ebay one I showed you).
http://www.amazon.com/Acase-Superle...1HVI/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1333169597&sr=8-9
this has been the best case for me so far, its very thin, and has a rubber skin with a hard plastic shell..the kraken, and defender are way to big for me. this case is just the right size its about the same size as a tpu case.

My case looks exactly the same and it was £3 from amazon.
IMO the thinnest cases are the back cases ones that doesnt really cover the top and bottom bezel...just the sides and back. BUT if you really want to protect your phone and not get it scratched up over time, you are better off using a TPU type case as the are not too thick and are of softer material and will not rub off any of the black anodized paint. Unlike any hard cases, whether its back only or 2 pieces. Also TPU cases are more absorbent during accidental drop on hard surfaces.
I was running seidio 2pc case hard case w/kick stand with my first 3d and although it had felt inside it eventually rubbed off the pain on the top corners of my phone. The felt inside was very thin and the case is not skin tight so it would move some and the slight movement of the case over time eventually sandpapered some of the paint off. TPU or rubber type cases are more skin tight and is not as abrasive as plastic on painted metal and will not damage the paint so long as you also clean it off from time to time. Some dirt can eventually get in between and the dirt will act as sandpaper. So just consider this when you're buying a case as some of you would probably like to sell your phone later down the road or just want to keep it looking new for a long time.

Those thin cases are the exact same thing as the case mate barely there cases. Much cheaper. I got the rock brand and like it a lot. You do lose that boot of protection at top and bottom though.
Some people have complained that these type of cases are a bit loose on the sides. Easy fix is to lightly squeeze the sides inwards... tight fit!

The back is hard plastic, leather wrapped.
Unless your saying you already have the HTC case and you need something to go over it. If that's the case, I'd say probably not since most everything is made to fit the device by itself.
It´s the leather wrapped plastic case. At the moment I am using it together with the original white leather case. It´s a little bit tight-fitting but it works.
By the way, pay a little attention to Flyer cases who fits too tight;
1. They may cause stains especially at the top and bottom parts (rubbing with some diluted IPA or cologne water will do the trick)
2. I've also faced an interesting problem. The cases that fully cover the tablet makes the G-sensor not work. Like in the pic.
Therefore it seems, one has to use cases that hold or cover the tablet from the edges.
Is it real leather ? How does it feel ?
This guy has the rotating one for $7.99 shipped and he's i n the USA. It just has a slight imprint of the rotating side on it from back packing from China. You won't find it anywhere else under $12 now let alone from a US seller. My luck, the guy went on vaca before shipping mine out. Quite peeved. Would've spent a few dollars more and gotten something from Amazon with Prime like this one.. Great case. Have the same one for the Transformer and Icona A500.
I bought the $7.99 rotating case and its great. It actually has a hard shell mount with a leather (synthetic I presume) covering.... great looking ,great function, great price.

Same experience here.
Hi,
After months of putting it off (whilst discovering more and more cases coming onto the market all the time) I went for this:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/StilGut-Ult...5QZ2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1321807531&sr=8-1
At £34.90 not cheap but:
*I wanted the corners protecting, rather than all the edges and not the corners like it seems many flyer cases have...
*wanted a pen holder that protected the nib a little better (but now I can see it doesn't actually fully protect the nib)
*Superb build quality, lovely leather smell!
*Very simple design.
*The screen is completely unhindered, which I also thought was a plus compared to some designs where the case can encroach on the touchscreen.

When the front flap is closed is it a very tight fit against the the Flyer's screen?
I ask this because I have exactly the same case but the outside is in a imitation carbon fibre material & it is very tight fitting so much so that the flap would put too much pressure on the screen & I'm afraid in the long term it will cause damage.

This one I bought is yummy leather with a spongy cushion feel... The fit is tight but just kind of catches the curved side of the body, firm, but not too firm IMO... I don't expect it to damage the screen or even the body at all.

Hi,

Anyone tried this? I'm debating between the 360 which I think is very handy to have and a case which is less bulky and can fit in my pockets. Yes, I can fit the flyer in my pockets .
Thanks!
My case came in today, the supposedly dented one from ebay had not dent at all. Going to look good on my flyer once it comes in

if you get any case with black silicone (trident, case-mate, otterbox, incipio, etc), the lint will be obviously visible. you can remedy that by getting a colored one

Definitely an awesome case. Am using the Matte Black version.
Cost is real good, and doesn't make the phone look bulky at all, easily slips in and out of the pocket
You may initially feel that since there is no volume rocker cut-out it would be difficult to use (some video reviews also show that), but trust me it does not feel uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, the divided volume rocker on the case actually has a nice feel to it.
Checkout this portion of a video, should give you a fair idea

Just ordered the case-mate tough case.
$28 after 20% off with '4MOM' code.
I had a hard time deciding between this one and the trident aegis case, but decided the extra $8 is worth the peace of mind of knowing the three pin holes around the camera aren't blocked and I think this case looks a bit slimmer. There isn't much information out there for the Amaze version, but the Sensation tough case is well reviewed. So I am hoping the Amaze one will be the same.
Will post some pictures when the case gets here.

Which Case Mate is that? How does it go? Is the first layer silicone and the outer lay plastic?
Right now I have the Reiko Hybrid case -- very durable, but very heavy and thick. I'm debating getting the Case Mate, Ballistic, or Trident.

How's the weight/thickness compared to the Reiko Hybrid? Considering it was only $9.00, I got it as more of an in-between "holder" to wait off for the better companies.

Its extreemly light as if almost the case isn't there but enough to tell there's weight added. $40 is pricey but considering the quality, look and overall feel id probably choose between this and seido! The seido case looks nice i hope somebody posts a review soon

I was hoping this would be the last case I bought for my gNote. I found the Case-Mate Tough on sale on Amazon for $17.99 (free shipping) way better than the $40 retail!
My gNote is not insured so I wanted a case that would provide a good degree of protection without adding too much bulk. I felt this case would meet this need. It has a good grip and solid construction.
My only gripe is the the silicon is not tight on the edge on the top and bottom! Ugg! The hard shell does not hold the inner silicon in place on the top and bottom, the way it does on the sides. When pulling the phone out of my pocket the lose silicone drags/clings. So I think this action may make the silicone baggy/loser over time.

Comments about loose fitting silicone and the pics showing it to be a dust magnet are disappointing. I was really hoping this would do the trick. I have the Reiko Hybrid case. It's protective but it's a monster.
Now that the Candyshell case AT&T wanted $40 for is in the low $20's, I may be revisiting that. I still don't like the glossy back's scratch magnet aspects but its slim and the silicone (TPU?) layer holds tight to the surface of the phone.
I fixed the loose silicone on top and bottom with some double sided sticky tape. Works like a charm!
Now that I have had a chance to use it for a week or so, I have to agree with the OP. It feels very good in the hand and totally secure.

How would you say the texture is on it? I have small hands so a little bit of grit helps me hold onto the thing, but I don't like the super sticky feel that makes it impossible to get out of your pocket
I have a barely there feather one for my ns4g and like it but this looks much better with corner protection.
Hopefully they make a white one for us too.

So is this like a TPU case or is it between a TPU and hard plastic? It looks interesting but I wonder how much protection it really gives.

I think it would be perfect, it is not stickey/rubbery but it gives just a little added grip. It adds just enough bulk to feel solid without any real added weight. It slides in and out of pockets easily as it doesn't 't have many openings to catch on anything.

It's more like a stiffer TPU case. It's not as flimsly/rubbery as the TPU case, but basically the same form factor, weight, etc. with a little more sturdy feel. It's not going to give much more protection than a TPU case, but it will give a little more because it is more rigid. I think one of the main advantage over the Diztronic TPU cases is that it covers all the buttons and eliminates those flexible areas that make it hard to hit the buttons.
I have dropped my 3D in the 3D version of the case from 3 to 4 feet onto concrete numerous times and there were no scratches or visible damage to the phone. It also provides that slight lip around the screen so it doesn't touch if laid flat.
Have you noticed any issues with pressing the buttons? That seems like the main criticism about this case. I'm really liking this one, TPU seems too flimsy and I rarely ever drop my phone (I dropped my Epic maybe 3 times) so I don't need something bulky.
I dented my Evo today so I'm on the hunt lol.

I went back and forth for about 20 minutes between the black and translucent mercury, but ended up buying black. Something tells me if I like it I will end up with the other at some point haha.

Just ordered the translucent mercury version. Coming from the the blue silicone case that Sprint sent out to the preorderee's. Getting a little tired of how much it sticks to the inside of my pocket, so hopefully this will be an improvement in that regard. Will let you guys know how it is once I receive it!
By the way, entering the promo code SUM2012 at checkout will save you $4.00 on the case. It's good until the 20th of August. Just sharing!
Also love this case had it with my epic touch and iPhone just ordered it for my new evo !!
Is the material like the casemate barely there? Does the camera have a elevated lip to protect the camera ?

I just ordered one, but from what I've read it's similar to the diztronic tpu case but the material is a little thicker.
Mine shipped
Mine "partially shipped" this morning, I dunno what that means but okay. Maybe I'll get a the packaging but no case lol
is this case just a tpu material? Does the back protect the camera frame from getting scratched if put down on surface?
In case anyone cares they just released their Feather case. I literally just ordered the NGP yesterday and may order one of these as well. The blue looks nice as I've grown accustomed to the color of the Silicone Case Sprint sent to pre-orders.

If anyone has the Diztronic TPU case, I would say these are almost identical in size. I really couldnt see any difference. It feels the same in hand, but covers the buttons, and is much more rigid.
I like this phone, but I find it's too slippery and I am afraid of dropping it. I have a rubber case, but it's too bulky it doesn't go into my pocket very easily.
Does anybody have any alternate ideas about making it sticky while remaining super thin?
( I already tried gaffer tape on the back but that's not sticky enough.)
A TPU case. I personally like the bodyglove line of cases, they're a bit pricey at 20 dollars.
Thanks, are they thinner than standard silicone cases?

Either that or baby powder
Definitely get a TPU case... they are slimmer than silicone, yet more solid and have a much snugger fit. I've only used TPU cases on my last three phones.

Alright then, I'll try the TPU case.
*any suggestion as to which brands are best? I see many cases with "TPU" in the title...*
Thanks for the tips.
Just look up tpu cases in Amazon and find one with reviews and a good price I bought one for $7 and it looks cool and seems very durable.

Here's a pick of the one I got, barely adds any bulk but great grip.
