What's a recommended case for the htc u11 - HTC U11 Accessories

What is a good case? There's so many third party choices with great prices but I'm wanting good protection and good fit for use of features. Should i stick with authentic HTC products? Any input appreciated!

Look here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/u11/accessories/htc-u11-case-thread-t3608811

So far out of 4 ordered .. the LK clear case on Amazon seems to offer decent protection and the least discoloration. And it's fairly cheap. I'd +1 it.

Crystal Case??

Have any one tried for this??
http://hk.f2.page.auctions.yahoo.com/hk/auction/b11615128
Is it good? Is it fix? Will it block the zoom bar?
And is there any internetional seller pay with paypal or credit card selling this case
Thanks
A lot of them turning up on ebay now; not sure how good they'll be, but they are cheap. Search for "Touch Pro 2 crystal".
I've switched from the classy PDAir leather case to a cheapy crystal one, the latter costs me less than USD4. I like it since it shows all aspects of the TP2 facade without sacrificing functionality. All the buttons and switches are just as accessible as before.
The only downside is the bulk, of course.

Where are all the QUALITY leather cases?

Something like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqesTZRGwyQ&context=C38b7f16ADOEgsToPDskKBMFMK6BjkFCi6z3oqRqDJ would be perfect for my needs. Something I can proudly take to the office that doesn't look like it was purchased at the local Dollar Store.
Sorry for the rant but the lack of quality accessories for this tablet is killing me.
Apparently no one wants to put money into a device that may not even survive a few months. You will only get the low end stuff really. Everyone knows Apple is the real deal and isn't going anywhere....so it is a sure bet to invest. Remember, you don't need to sell Apple stock, it sells itself.
I have yet to buy one, but this is one of the few I have seen that says it is actual leather.

If you get one and like it let me know.
My friend has a roocase for his og nd its very nice.. Here is a link to one, but they make several. I like this one because the tablet is in a "detachable" sleeve. (I have a substantially similar version made by MiniSuit but it's very cheap leather - looks fine from any distance, but for $14 I know it's not good quality - it serves a purpose and looks fine for my needs.
Anyway..... check Roocase. I've seen and handled that brand and think it is nice. MUCH nicer than most anything else available. If you don't like it, return it.
I have the Caseen Skinny and it's great.
tuff-luv.com has some great albeit pricey leather cases for not only the Prime Tablet but also the Tablet and Keyboard.
The real question is: "Where are all the quality non-leather cases?"
There are tons of options for leather cases with varying degrees of quality, but there are practically no non-leather cases.
I have the cheaper poetic/mono case and it has been great. No complaints.

How is it only going to last a few months? They are releasing the tf 700 in a couple of months, but that will be the same size so if anything the lifetime will be expanded more that it normally would be.
Also this is a good case, I got the exact same type just from a different company called Acase, because it was cheaper priced.

I had the tuff-luv case for the TF-101 and the quality was really nice but it was more geared towards using the dock so the bottom edge was fully exposed.

Yes, I've been looking at this one but I'm cautious on pulling the trigger. Read a review on another forum and the quality of leather was in question.

I also looked at the Roocase but I am concerned of the thickness the case would add to the tablet.
I also purchased the Mini Suit case to hold me over and agree that it's made of very very very cheap looking pleather.
So my search continues
I bought this case off of eBay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/260938668106?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
I have several cases from this guy on our Kindles, Nooks, iPad and now TFP. Have had some for over a year and there are holding up great.
The two problems I have with this case is that it will not charge closed or when sitting in landscape as shown.
I was skeptical about different cases i kept finding online. But after taking a proper look at this one --> "GreatShield Multi-Stand Leather Protective Folio Case for ASUS TF201 Eee Pad Transformer Prime"
I went ahead and ordered it. It cost me 20pounds and was shipped from the US. In terms of quality, It is way better than any leather case for any tablet I have seen so far including those for the ipad (and I mean it). I asked someone @ my UNI to guess how much it cost me and he said "probably 70pounds". My point is, it is of the best quality, it looks sleek, professional and prestigious. Even better is the fact that it is tailor made for the transformer prime so all ports are accessible. Its design also doesn't cover up the bezel like most other tablet cases do (something i dislike with a passion).
I trust that if you go ahead and get it, you will not regret it. Here's the amazon UK link
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B006RML5ZO/ref=oh_o02_s00_i00_details
If you live in the US, you can search for it on amazon.com.
I hope this helps.
Cheers mate.
Thanks for the info jdeltree, unfortunately I have already purchased & tried this case
http://www.amazon.com/TF201-Transfo...3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1330033453&sr=1-3
which looks fairly similar and was not happy with the design. Used it for 10 minutes and went back to the cheap minisuit.
Most of my cases in the past did cover the bezel and I kind of got used to that.
I may just bite the bullet and try the Caseen one. At this rate I will end up with a drawer full of these cases in search for the right one.
Going to give the Acase another try tonight to see if I can get used to it.
The saddle leather one coming soon from tuff-luv looks promising. 99£, but saddle leather is a top quality product. Once a picture is available, ill probably order one, as long as I can get it to the states.
Sent from my CM7 Atrix 4G
Yea, I love the look of that saddle leather one. Very cool indeed.
There is a group buying of the rotating case:
http://www.365gate.com/groupon-15-detail.html
$10.9 but seems not freeshipping.

if you are planning to get that, think twice

"Quality Leather"
If you think that $10.00 is quality leather, or leather at all for that matter, then your standards are very low.
I have the caseen one, I'm pretty happy with it.. Doesn't add too much bulk but does add a good amount of protection. I feel the build quality is good too.

UGLY duckling. Also, they forgot to make holes for the speaker! A lot of cases apparently have forgotten to make holes for the speaker. I'm still using my Caseen Skinny case and I still love it.

Which case should I get for my tablet (tablet only)

went to amazon.com and searched for "tf300 case" then about 100 cases showed up. don't know which one to get.
the one showed up first result was this one (by Poetic), but now it's out of stock. and Poetic also has another one for less than $3, (here), and this confused me because the price difference is just $3, of course i'd get the better one.
i only have the tablet, no keyboard dock (will never buy one), so which case should i get?
- i need some protection, but not the best protection like the gumdrop case, just protection that could help the tab survive when say drop about 1 feet.
- stand/positions (typing, watching video,...) don't really matter, but good to have.
- affordable, i'd pay up to $30, but more than that i feel like it's too expensive.
- for personal reason, i can only buy on amazon.com.
there are so many brands i don't know which to choose, also why they're different brands but looks like they're the same lol
Which case do you use?
(i was going to buy that Poetic one because it says "protective case" but it's out of stock now, and i think maybe there are some other cases that are better, that's why i need your advice )
this one is same, but $4 cheaper :

Where are you from. I have a slightly used (Moku) case that I bought from Amazon. It is very nice but I've since upgraded and added the dock and bought their other case so I have no use for the old one. Make me an offer. I have paypal.
PS: I'll come back and post a link to the case shortly.

Case with kickstand is essential with this phone

The Nexus 6 has a great screen and stereo speakers, it will make an excellent media device, and I feel like a case with kickstand is almost essential to take full advantage of this phone.
I loved the stand on my Evo 4G and its a shame more phones didn't copy that feature.

grab a case that has a built in stand... i have picked up a very cheap one for the time being until better cases are more readily available for it

spigen will be making a case with a stand as well

I'm gonna order it as soon as its available to go along with the 3 other cases I already ordered
Multifunctional Wallet Stand
youtube.com/watch?v=RDWQOjW1zBk
This is much cheaper option, I had one of these for my Nexus 5 and it worked really well for the price. A couple of slots for Cash and Cards and the stand can sit at a few different angles which make it a good choice over the Official Google Alternative, I don't know who would pay that for this type of case. I think they sell these for around £15 on their site, you can get it cheaper on amazon though I think.
Thoughts on this?
With the promo code 90off1, you can get it for just $3 and it works with virtually any any tablet/phone. Plus you can keep your phone naked (or with just a skin) and pull out this kickstand when necessary. No having to carry around a bulky case.
Granted, those bulky cases will give you protection and have built in kickstands so you don't have to worry about bringing a kickstand wherever you go.
Has pros and cons.
What do you guys think?
Why "essential" ? I'll take a slip case and a folding stand so I don't compromise qi effectiveness thanks!

Yeah I agree, a case with a stand functionality would really well with this handset. Purely because of that beautiful screen and the front facing speakers. I can defo see that becoming a trend for all smartphones. Front facing speakers make more sense than having them on the edge or on the sides.
I don't want just any kickstand case. I want one that allows the kickstand to function in both portrait and landscape mode. They are few and far between, but I've found them for my last two phones (GSII and Note II). This is the exact model that I'm using with my Note II at the moment:
Black and White (same one I have):

All Black:

Various Colors:

That minimalistic design looks good but I'm preferring the Orzsly's multi function. Gotta wonder how the Orzsly impacts inductive charging.

Lack of Accessories for our phone U11

I've been pouring through pages and pages over Amazon and eBay, hoping to find good cases and screen protectors, or a Wireless charger upgrade for our phone but the results are just sad.
This is such a gorgeous phone, I'm surprised there are so few accessory manufacturers making products for it.
Yes, there are a lot of vendors, but most of them re-sale the same stuff in different packaging.
I was hoping to get an Outter Box case for this phone, but it doesn't even exist, so found some 3rd party similar to Outter Box, I hope it works, it's still in the mail
The Incipio case is nice, but the color choices are so dull...
Screen protectors, went through a few already, none of them fits 100%, still hunting for a better fitment.
Last I hope they will make some sort of wireless Qi charging for our phone.
Many other models of phones has had the Qi upgrade, that you install either inside the phone, or outside and connects to the USB port, ugly but at least it works.
I'd prefer to see one in which we can install inside the battery compartment.
The lack of accessory support for our phone is annoying, makes it feel incomplete.

yup, i picked up the a couple of "HTC QC 3.0 Powerbank USB Type-C"
http://www.htc.com/ca/accessories/htc-qc-3-powerbank-c/
I compared them to aftermarket QC3 power packs, and the HTC ones are the best bang for the buck, especially at the current sale prices.
At least you know they'll be using quality battery inside, and not some poor quality battery when you buy aftermarket power packs.
They look like Anker powerbanks...
Yep, it sucks. I emailed OtterBox and they said they're not making cases for it. I picked up the LK one on Amazon to get me by. Supposedly Seidio is going to make one. I might send the phone back, it's a little big for my liking, plus the lack of a heavy duty case.

Those were the closest I can find that offer similar protection like OtterBox cases.

Spigen makes great quality cases, they have done all of the other HTC phones I think they will make more the U11 as well.
Their dual TPU/hard case was on my M8 for 2 years protected against every fall!

For the best screen protector try Brando Workshop Ultra-Clear. Fits great with no haloes just like in tempered glass ones.
