Incipio Faxion - HTC Droid DNA

I just purchased the Faxion for the DNA and should be arriving late this week. Because it's newer than the dual pro or feather, I was unable to find pictures or reviews of them on a dna. Anyone have the faxion for this phone? I bought mine in black and decided on it rather than the dual pro because it's supposed to be a bit slimmer and narrower. But my wife has the dual pro for her SG3 and looks to be excellent quality so I'm hoping I like the faxion purchase I made sight unseen.

Where'd you order it from?

It's on the Incipio website but I searched on amazon and found it there as well for $28.99 + $2.97 shipping, so I ordered it from there.

Mind making a little review of the case for us? or just give us some insight about the case since you physically have it? Way better than looking at pictures.

I like the look of this case a lot. It looks like it will protect well enough for my needs while still being fairly thin.
Is there anyway the back status light is still going to be visible? That might be the deciding factor for me.

Unless you drill a hole in it, no.
But I think that literally 1 case has a hole for it, so I don't think you'll have much of a choice.

I might pick one up...my Diztronic is starting to annoy me.

Curious to see how you guys like it...not sure i would like the glossy case exterior... but we'll see.
The dual pro cases are very good, had one for my Gnexus and other older phones before.

I just received mine and I have to say it makes it look really nice, its still slim and keeps its curves while adding good protection (I got the grey/yellow one). The only complaint I have is that it is a little slick in the hand, but not too bad. I would take pictures but, I don't have my camera with me :/ would definitely recommend.

Here are pics of the Faxion case on my DNA. Overall the case fits very well. Power and volume buttons are a little hard to press, but that's really not the cases fault. I'm not to crazy about the glossy finish, it's a scratch/scuff magnet (all the pics on the Web did not show this glossy finish), I may have thought twice about buying this case and just gone with the dual pro. However, one of the main reasons I did go with the Faxion is it has a thinner profile than the dual pro, and it doesn't disappoint from that aspect. It doesn't add a lot of weight or extra to the phone, fits nicely in my size 34 jeans pocket The one thing I am completely disappointed about though is the screen protector provided by Incipio. You can see in the picture that because the screen on the DNA is curved on the edges, the protector doesn't stick all the way around for about a mm. I'll have to buy some replacements online.

Actually the dual pro is suppose to be the exact same thickness (according to the specs on incipio's website) and the buttons are a ton easier to press in my opinion.

So they are the same thickness like he said....

One piece of warning regarding this case, the microusb charging cable doesn't work because the backshell on the microusb side of the cable that plugs into the phones charging port is to thick with the HTC provided cable. I had to use my wife's cable from her Samsung SG3 that has a thinner profile backshell.
Sent from my Droid DNA

Disregard my statement above regarding the microusb cable that comes with the phone, it does work just fine with this case. I was using a cable from another device I've had in the past and that's where I was having issues.

i received my dual pro today and its great as to be expected from a 2 part case (silicon, hard plastic) all the buttons are easy to hit unlike the otterbox i have and this case feels real nice in the hands the included screen protector feels cheap but dosent take away from the quality of the screen like most free protectors do, overall i'm very satisfied this is exactly what i've wanted since i got the phone.

ikonic edge pouch (handmade from New-Zealand fine leather)

Have anyone ordered the ikonic edge SuperSlim case for the THD??, it's originaly desgined for the iphone 3G, but as it's 100% genuine leather it can be stretched a little bit to fit the THD.
Moreover, I've contacted them to ask if it fits the THD. And here is the reply:
-----------Quote
Yes the dimensions are almost identical.
In fact I have had a few customers who has bought one
for the HTC. There is no reason why it shouldn't
be a very good fit. I don't have the inner dimensions
but going by the size it will fit the HTC.
iphone 3G Dimensions:
(115.5 by 62.1 by 12.3 mm)
# Weight: 4.7 ounces (133 grams)
HTC Touch HD Specs:
* Dimensions: 115 mm x 63 mm x 12 mm
* Weight: 146 gms

But, still am not sure if it will perfectly fit and didn't decide to order one yet!
The leather and design is nice. wondering anyone use to before i get one.
Very nice, makes me proud to be a Kiwi. Was going to order one and in NZ$ and get it sent but works out I would only save a few £ due to the terrible sterling rate
provide information about the fitting of the phone once you get hold of this leather pouch. the temtation of this case is raising from me.
Anyone bought this case yet? please advise if the fitting is not too tight for HD.
Well, since no one reponded yet here is a reply I got from Ikonic Edge regarding this matter:
Hi
We have sold a number of these to HTC
Touch owners as the dimensions are almost
the same. So it fits just as well with the HTC.

I am planning on ordering one when I get my HD
Browsing through the site, these cases seem very good quality. One question that occurs to me though; if they're made for the fruitphone, the 'speaker opening' that they tout in their description won't be in the correct place for our HDs.
I have ordered an ikonic edge Super-Slim Card pouch (iPhone 3G) tan colour for my Blackstone.
I will post some pics and short review as soon as I receive it

There's nothing to worry about as far as the ringing tone goes. I have several different leather pouches designed for Iphone that work perfectly with HD. And since Touch HD actually has the loudest speakerphone out of the whole touch-screen bunch, I can confirm that keeping it inside leather pouch does not affect ringing volume.
I actually noticed that the default HTC soft pouch muffles the sound more then the leather ones.
As for the dimensions, most Iphone accessories will fit Touch HD as well. Only possible problem is that HD is slightly fatter at the bottom, so some stretching may be necessary.
No pics yet???
yeah any updates on this case? interested in getting one but wanted to know from someone who already has one.
It is here....
Ok guys, I got the pouch a couple of days ago
It is just awesome
I'll be posting a review with pics later this evening... stay tuned

$7.21 case for Amazon Prime members

If you are looking for an inexpensive case that will give you good protection, I had bought this case for a netbook but discovered it works pretty well for the G-tab. It is memory foam padded. It has two clear vinyl straps that will hold the bottom of the G-tab in place and which allow you to still view the screen. It can actually function as a stand in landscape mode but it can't handle more than light taps this way unless the back is propped against something. I have attached a couple pictures.
Price is $7.21 shipped if you have amazon prime and $9.20 if you buy from third party amazon seller Senyx.
Outer Dimensions: 11-3/4" by 8-1/2"
Inner Dimensions 11" x 7-3/4".
link: http://www.amazon.com/Booklet-Netbo...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1295738870&sr=1-1
$4.21 for similarly sized cases of the same brand
The following two cases are cheaper ($4.21) and have the same dimensions (11 x 7.75 x 1 inner compartment and 11.2 x 8 x 1 inches outer shell) despite being marketed for smaller sizes netbooks, they are same brand (case crown) and provided by same seller (fulfilled by amazon as well).

I have ordered the above two, one for the GTab and one for a netbook
Thanks for tip OP.
From the single review of 8.9" case:
I accidentally browsed this netbook case and though it says it's for 8.9" netbooks, I was able to fit my 10.1" netbook comfortably.

sanvara: can you please confirm your amazon case dimensions ? Thank you in advance.
Good research. I didn't consider those since they seemed to be made for smaller netbooks. When I bought the case above a couple months ago it was on sale for $4.21 shipped too!
The outer dimensions on the case I have are 11-3/4" by 8-1/2" and inner 11" x 7-3/4". There is a fairly thick ring of padding around the edges which accounts for the difference between the outer and inner dimensions.
I personally like black and the slim design version over the double pouch for daily use but I may pick up the double pouch for when I want to carry the power cord somewhere.

I got mine the other day. It fits perfectly. The only thing to be careful of is remember the the "top" of the case is actually the "bottom." I already opened it once and forgot the the straps to hold it in are up by the handles. Luckily, I caught the tab before it fell out.
But I've already used the case to take the tablet on the road and it works and stands great. Watched a movie with absolutely no issue at all in this. I'm thinking about ordering the other one aasoror listed as well for the extra pouch for accessories as the tablet is taking flight this week.
Great find on these guys!
Thanks to both of you!

I looked at my local sears. They have the EXACT SAME case in the store, under the Case Logic brand for $15. But if you buy the G tab case online, it's currently under $5.00. Honestly, I think you're insane NOT to get this case for the price!
Agreed and its padded and the quality is good.

I just received this case. It doesn't fit. The inner dimensions are roughly: 9.5 x 7.25 inches. The G tab is roughly: 10.5 x 6.75 inches. So the case is about an inch too.
aasoror, where did you find the dimensions when you searched. They aren't listed in Amazon's page. Maybe they sent the wrong one?

Thanks more letting us know it doesn't fit. I almost ordered one. I wouldn't have thought it would fit since it's marketed for a 9" netbook.
The case I posted actually has a bit of room. When my case with the keyboard comes I'm going to see it it fits in there, I think it will.

Recieved my Amazon case today. Fits well and is a good deal for the $7
I am thinking about purchasing a basic neoprene sleeve to put my G-Tablet in. I don't need a normal case, as I have a custom carbon fiber weave on the back, and prefer holding it without a case. I just need something to protect it while it is in my book-bag. I was thinking about the following sleeve, but am worried about the size.
(apologise for the lack of proper link, I don't post very often)
amazon.com/ Neoprene-Netbook-Fujitsu-Samsung-Gateway/dp/B002TSCL2G/ref=sr_1_14?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1296573496&sr=1-14
It lists for 10 inch netbooks, and its listed dimension is 11x8.25, which theoretically should work for the tablet. What do you guys think? There are similar sleeves for 12 inch netbooks, but I don't want the tablet sliding around inside too much.

Just ordered 2 new cases, and a pouch. Will review when received

After finding out about Brando screen protectors after reading a thread here on XDA, I decided to see what other accessories they had for the 7.7. And they had a couple cases in different colors that looked worth a try. Ive been wanting one that snapped on and only covered the edges and not any of the screen itself because sometimes they will cause a screen protector to peel, and I found this. It comes in 4 colors. I ordered the "ice" color which is basically clear because I wanted to still be able to see the silver back. And since it was only $10 I decided to pick up this one too, also in the ICE color. So anyway Ill write some short reviews about them when I get them. It takes 7-10 days from Hong Kong. Heres a couple pics also.
Just ordered 2, these look awesome! Thanks for posting, I'll post pics when I get them.

I got a similar one, with an X in the back. It works, but it increases the size a bit (not so much thickness though, but the length x height), without adding much value (like a stand or wallet pockets or whatever). And it's kind of slippery in your hands, but not so much in your pocket.
It does protect the tab more than the OEM book case, but the Book Case looks better, it's more portable, it's a stand and slips into your pocket easier, while not being slipery in your hands when folded. Protection is just against scratches though.
The worst thing about the case like this is the power button. It's kind of hard to press on/off and sometimes I turn off the tablet trying...very annoying.

Yea, I will most likely be using the snap on most of the time.
UPDATE: Ive received the cases and will write a short review with pics.
Ill start with the snap on case. First thing I noticed that there were 2 spots that had what I would call a stress mark. You know the whitish look that plastic gets when its been bent and is close to breaking? (see pics) This was right out of the package. And it had a scratch along the back as well. Very cheaply made. But it does fit, and fits pretty good. But compared to the TPU type it just doesnt look good, so that one will be shelved. No point in returning it. Comes in Blue, Pink, Black, and ice (clear) I dont recommend this case.
The "ice" colored clear TPU style "X" case is awesome. Its made very well and fits perfect. Since its clear the silver of the tab shows through and looks great. All the ports are cut out well, and it has a very nice grip feel to it. Which of course is a great thing to have on a nearly $600 tablet. My only complaint is one that happens with most of these style cases, and that is that it makes the buttons stiff, and less responsive. They work, but require a lot more force to register. Other than that if you want a case that protects, and still shows the awesome silver back of the 7.7, I do recommend this case, and I prefer the ice colored one. (clear) It does come in red also.
I had also ordered this sleeve . I knew there was a chance it might not fit, but based on the measurements I knew it would be close. Well it didnt fit. It was only $7.45 shipped so no biggie. Ill give it to my mother in law that has the first edition 7" galaxy tab.
I just checked their site (brando), and they have a new case choice that looks like it might be good. Its a snap on type, but is rubber backed rather than the hard plastic. Comes in Colors: Black, White, Blue, Pink, and Red. I might order one, but I learned from my last order to expect at least 16 days for shipping.
Anyway thats all and heres some pics.
Now that you have had the clear back cover for a few days, how is it holding up specially around the buttons and sim/SD slot? I ordered a similar one from an eBay seller in china and it has fallen apart those two areas. This was within 2 day of first use, I had not dropped it so was very upset about it. I did pay $4 for it so i guess I shouldn't complain.

I dont even use it. Already collecting dust. I use the X case sometimes, but love the poetic case and use it the most. Looks great, protects great, and has multi stand angles. Highly recommend.

Arm Band?

has anyone found or have a legit known good arm band for the phone? Im looking for one that is MADE for the lte EVO so it never has a risk of falling out while running.
Just got the one from iArmbands. Without a case, the phone goes in well but the flap at the top is a bit tight to wrap over the phone. I use the Seidio Surface case, and while I can get the phone into the band, it takes a bit of struggling with that flap.
Without a case, the phone is actually a bit too narrow for this armband. With a case the phone is the right width, but the height is a bit short. The screen is controllable through the clear cover in either case.

I wouldnt mind using that even tho i wont be able to change songs or see the screen, but i use pandora and just let the songs play so i dont mind.
thanks for posting that site its really good! very cheap items! they have my TPU case on there for 10 bucks when i bought it for 18! =p
I ended up getting the iArmbands case for HTC phones in Otterbox cases. If you go to their site they have the model number there. It fits great with my Otterbox Commuter. It even fit my nephew's Droid Razr Maxx in an Otterbox Defender.
The only thing I don't like is that the armband itself isn't elastic and is very short. I contacted iArmbands about this and they recommended an extender from one of their competitors. I will check the name and add a follow up post.

Ah TuneBelt was what they recommended. They are only a $1.75 on Amazon. Had I known I would have bought one with the case.
One other note, I had to cut the case for the headphone cable as the holes do not align.
TuneBelt has a case that is made for large phones like the Evo 4G LTE in Otterbox and Seido cases. I am tempted to buy that with the extender just to see how well it works. It wouldn't hurt to have a spare in the car in case I forget to throw it in my gym bag.

Thanks, yeah, it took lots of digging for me to finally decide which one to get. I was a little hesitant b/c of the model number difference as well.
According to the descriptions on Amazon:
AB85 - Maximum size: Length: 5.5 inches; Circumference (2X width plus 2X depth) up to 7.75 inches.
AB86 - Maximum length: 5.4" - Maximum circumference (2X width plus 2X depth): 6.5". Design not intended for smartphones with protective cases. See models AB84 or AB85 for those needs.
I emailed them as well, and although they were prompt with responses, they weren't all that helpful so I just went by what was on the description.
I just ran a race recently and saw a runner with an actual belt-type case for her iPhone. I'd really like something like that, it's almost like a tiny fanny pack with the phone sitting lengthwise at the small of the back. I have an old Tune Belt for a CD player that's this style, I was hoping they made one for phones.

I also have that case. It does fit. It is bit harder to get it out of the arm band.
I usually just pop off diztronic when I use the arm band.

I've had a Diztronic case for both my GNex and S3, so naturally I had to get one of these for the DNA as soon as it was available on Amazon. Diztronics are simple, full backing and side rubber bumpers. There's no screen protectors I like the pronounced power and volume buttons on this case. It makes them much easier to use. As always, the Diztronic gives a solid feel to the phone. It no longer feels like it's going to slip and fly out of my hand. The back has openings for the camera, flash, and speaker, but not for the notification light.
If you're a minimalistic case owner, get this. Great stuff for $15 (incl. shipping).

The only thing that bugs me about these cases is that they appear to over up the back notification light.
It does... I might drill a hole for the rear notification light on my diztronic

I also ordered this (http://www.amazon.com/EMPIRE-Black-.../B00A83TNBG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1354352083), so the back notification light being covered doesn't bother me. It's obnoxiously priced at $4 (worth about 50 cents), but does the job well. And even though it says for DNA, it will work for any phone.

Right...shows you how much it's made specifically for the DNA...
I just received this case today (ordered from Amazon; $12.50 with free 2 day shipping and no tax). This is definitely one of the nicer TPU cases I've had. There's a nice soft-touch, rubberized kind of exterior with the gel/plastic interior. It certainly inspires confidence in being able to protect the phone from a rough fall. It doesn't bulk up the phone too much, either.
If anyone is still on the fence about a case, give this one a close consideration. (It's so cheap, what have you got to lose?).

Yes. There's no "sweet spot" that Qi emits from to cover up. Just throw it on the pad and it works.
i noticed one of the reviews on amazon stated the diztronic is going to make a revised version that addressed the back notification light.. anyone hear that?
Well, I had my first 2.5 foot drop today. I was 3/4 asleep plugging it on my dining room table when it slipped and flew out of my hands. It landed on its length-wide edge (the side with the volume buttons) and I caught it with my feet after it hit so it didn't tumble. While this is an ideal fall, I'm happy to report there's not a scratch or crack and the case looks like I just took it out of the box. Worth three times the $15 to me at this point.

I'm in your boat, i had one for my GNex and S3 too. i love their cases. i bought one last week and it's already waiting for my DNA when it comes in tomorrow.
Just a heads up this case suffers from the same problem main others do, which is it doesn't play well with earphones/headphones with a bigger jack. I had to cut mine so that my shures would plug in.
Damn didn't notice that

Just received my case, and while i normally don't like cases, this one feels great. even better than my old Gnex one. i think the materials they used are a step up from what they used before. The only issue i have as mentioned above, is that the volume cutout is a bit small. I assume other cases would have similarly sized cutouts so its not a big issue but i will probably be cutting mine so it can fit my larger jacks.
Can anyone post pics of this case on the phone?
