Well, lol...right now I put it in a heavy duty freezer bag in my pocket. Don't judge me!

I'm looking for a good pouch that closes up all the way, but have had zero luck. . Some cases are nice, but that do allow metal shavings to get trapped inside them which kills a phone. It's tough
[One (M7) Accessories] grat_master:
freezer bag + bluetooth ?

since your at work, you shouldn't be using your phone that much ;)
[One (M7) Accessories] HighSun_Murder:
I work at Body Glove Mobile, I got the "drop suit" for $0.00 :D and its pretty gangster. Its not one of those giant bulky Otter box VHS tape looking cases. It just adds a little grip. The other Body Glove cases are ****e for this phone.

PS,

AT&T gave me an Otter box for free and I put that garbage on Craigs List.
[One (M7) Accessories] stevedebi:
Is the front of the case open? In that case I think the Otterbox defender would be better. I use one.

Not much out there. I found this possibility

[One (M7) Accessories] HighSun_Murder:
The front of the drop suit IS open. Its more of a slim line case. The Otter Box has a crappy screen protector and waaaay to big.
[One (M7) Accessories] cubexg:
I've actually been using the Sedio holster and had mine naked since getting it - black. I did apply a skinomi to the back and I'm not crazy about the way it feels, I must admit that I'm less concerned about scratches or anything like that. I'll probably end up removing it. I used my Photon commando in a sedio case for a long time - i guess the fear of scratching something so perfect is stuck in my head. :)
[One (M7) Accessories] stevedebi:
Well, protection wise, I'm happy with the Defender. I use a screen protector under the plastic of the Defender, because they made the bottom speaker opening too large.

I plan to use a small TPU case and a belt pouch, when the pouch arrives from China.

I'm glad you like your case; I also like mine.
[One (M7) Accessories] HighSun_Murder:
Scratches I can live with, dropping it and shattering the gorilla glass is what i worry about.

Got my Stealth one today - going commando. This phone is too damn pretty
[One (M7) Accessories] caliboy99:
Been commando since i got this amazing phone last month. Its to perfect to put a case on i think. But the one thing bothering me is how flush the camera lenz is on the back and dont want to scratch it. So im looking at all the skins/slim cases out there just for that fact. Liking the ones from Cimo, Kayscase, armor suit etc..
[One (M7) Accessories] CraigP17:
Started commando today. Don't think I could possibly go back to a case.
[One (M7) Accessories] Joshnor713:
Yes, that is my only concern. I wish HTC would've slightly raised the white plastic rim around the camera glass, stupid not to have done that. Does anyone know if the camera glass is gorilla glass??

Thinking about just cutting a circle out of some screen protector and putting it back there. I've thought about a slim case, but just can't bare to do it.
[One (M7) Accessories] jgagnon1:
I think that would screw up your IQ way more than a simple scratch on the lens !

Been commando since the beginning, this thing is so pretty bare that I could let myself to put a case on this one!
[One (M7) Accessories] ahighone:
For you commando lovers out there, like myself, I highly recommend the SENA zero-profile leather pouch/case.

http://www.senacases.com/htc-cases/one/ultraslim/

The black isn't my color... but the light-tan is. They don't have previews for the other colors yet but you can look at other phones and get an idea what the pouch colors look like.

It's a very nice leather pouch.

I had an HTC Inspire in one of the basic leather zero-profile cases and dropped it in the snow for a while... came back 2 hours later, found it buried in snow, and everything was fine. I still have the case to this day.

The Inspire got ran-over when I left it on my car roof... it fell in the middle of a major highway service road and the phone's screen got killed... but I'm currently using the pouch for my one... even though it's a bit small for it.

It will be a tight fit for a week or so but they look very nice once broken in. They are by far my favorite cases.

Just my 2 cents.
[One (M7) Accessories] TheHeffNerr:
I want to get a pouch case, but other then that no.

That and I think other cases are going to make the phone not dissipate heat like it should, and may cause some issues. No idea if I'm right or wrong, but works in my head even though I'm sick so my logic may be flawed XD.
[One (M7) Accessories] wotandsdwys:
Was going to go commando. This is my first full day with the phone. Took a 2.5 to 3" drop on concrete at work. Now has 2 very small scuffs on the face. 2 cases have been ordered.
[One (M7) Accessories] stevedebi:
I'd have a hard time putting that on my belt...
[One (M7) Accessories] joshla102:
No case

I've had my phone for about a week and a half now without a case. I've never dropped it yet the plastic injected on the sides have scratched a little, but nothing very noticeable. The aluminium is still flawless. I dont think it scratches easy.
[One (M7) Accessories] hondaguy:
I am using a zagg skin on the back and front just to add some grip protect from light scratches. I had to cut the screen shield at the bottom so it wouldn't cover the capacitive buttons. Works well and easier to hold for me.
[One (M7) Accessories] antdizzo:
I also use zagg full body invisible shield. I used it for my one s and loved it. The only problem I have is that back part is a bit too long, it either edges over the top it the bottom. I'm planning on using my razor blade on it soon though.

It's basically invisible and it fits the front screen PERFECT.

Sent from my HTC One using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[One (M7) Accessories] ihavoc:
After installing the zagg shield on the back I was thinking did I stretch this skin or was it cut too long.

I guess if 2 people had the same problem it was probably too long. Also the front screen is perfect top to bottom but thought could of been a tad wider.

All in all loving it and noticing next to zero orange peel on the screen which is common with the zagg
[One (M7) Accessories] peabody42:
Invisible Shield full body front.

Here's my results with Invisible Shield full body front.

You can see the orange peeling, and corners where the front shield doesn't cover the entire glass from top to bottom or from left to right. There's a pic of a reflection, too, just kinda showing how the orange peeling doesn't have TOO great of an effect.

Annoying thing is that when swiping down for notifications, you can definitely feel the edge. So far, it's held up and stuck solidly to the glass.

I kinda like the "bouncy" feel of typing with it on. Sometimes the left capacitive back/menu button doesn't register, and I have to hit home to have it work again. Not sure what the deal is with that, cuz the home capacitive button always works just fine.

Installation was simple. I've done a bunch of these before, and use plenty of solution, squeegee lightly and give it a couple of days to cure. The way I do it, there WILL be microbubbles both the really, really tiny kind and the ones that are the size of maybe a pencil dot. There WILL be some liquid bubbles, too. But in the past if I try too hard to squeegee everything out, the shield itself warps and looks messed up. I just give it a couple of days, stick it under a lamp every once in a while (just so the phone feels lukewarm), and all the bubbles, microbubbles and fluid bubbles disappear.

Next post will show the back.
[One (M7) Accessories] peabody42:
Ok, here's the back. I put the back on first.

There are VERY small areas not covered by the shield on top to bottom/left to right areas. Cutouts are perfect (I used a very sharp knife to just poke a hole in the top right noise mic, and popped it out after spray a lot of solution on the shield and my hands, popping it from the side that doesn't attach to the phone).

Put it on same way I put the front on: no hard squeegeeing. It cures and conforms pretty much perfectly on the top and bottom ledges and on the HTC logo, and there are not areas of lift or bubbles on top of the beatsaudio logo.

Verdict: I like it, overall. I think I might take the front off, because I'm not sure it's necessary (had a Galaxy Nexus and even a BlackBerry naked, treated them like crap, and only had maybe a few tiny scratches on the Nexus screen). I absolutely LOVE having the shield on the back, cause I can rest assured that I can place the phone down without it sliding.

I also love the fact that in practical use, for phone calls or just texting or whatever, the grip on the back is ridiculously good, and if I have the phone in my pocket it doesn't just slide out.

Hope this gives you guys some info. I think it's worth it for the back alone. Gonna try living with the front for a while.

I've been going commando since I got my One a few weeks ago. I got insurance. So far I've dropped it twice from about 2.5 feet onto hardwood floor. No damage at all.
[One (M7) Accessories] fac51:
Commando here. I tried the Double Dip case but it was too bulky and it took away all the charm of the phone. I do have Krusell Sleeve for when I'm out and about though.
[One (M7) Accessories] schn1tt3r:
I had a slim fit case for my iPhone 4S. Same deal, tight fit at the beginning, then it is fine, however, being a tight fit, if you look at the antennae at an angle, you could see the wear from sliding it in and out all the time. For this reason, I am looking for a pouch that looks nice, but fits loose.

PS. Going commando as well, like always.
[One (M7) Accessories] fac51:
The Krusell pouch I mentioned a couple of posts back is a loose fit.
[One (M7) Accessories] AndrewAmazed:
This was pretty much what happened to me. I went a full week using a case and then took it off and wanted to see if I could just go commando, loving the feel of the phone and everything but first day commando, everything was going swell but later on in the day I was simply just holding it in my hand and it seemed to have slipped out... Have two scuffs/dents on both the top and the bottom of the casing.
[One (M7) Accessories] boroboy69r:
Never in my wildest dreams am i going commando with this beast my wfs is not even commando and thats over a year old and still like new , i have had two sennys both never commando which i sold as new and my most beloved hox was never commando untill it died and had no insurance to claim on hence on the wfs till this bad boy comes this week its not even cvoming out the box till my case and screeny comes.

Smoothly typed from my n7
[One (M7) Accessories] Crusher16:
I always go commando. I seriously dislike cases.
[One (M7) Accessories] 56789:
No case. No insurance. Livin' dangerously.
[One (M7) Accessories] AdzUK:
No screen protector and no case here.

May get a pouch soon though..
[One (M7) Accessories] chinbags:
Ive had mine for 3 weeks. Have been keeping a close eye on where I leave it and always trying to keep my pockets clear of keys and coins for it. Just a week ago I noticed two scratches on the screen and a mild dent on the side. I saw a video of some guy running a knife and hammer over the screen without any scratches - I now find that very hard to believe. Ive ordered my case for it.

[One (M7) Accessories] chivamex10:
I notice that the wet application version of the zagg leaves the back glossy. Makes it look tacky IMO. I prefer the dry install kit from AT&T. No moisture involved and it is a matte finish on the back. Keeps the phone looking natural.
[One (M7) Accessories] unremarked:
I'm currently searching for as minimal a case as possible. I had one I liked on my iPhone 5(3-4 phones ago, lol) from http://www.iphonecaze.com/, but they don't do non-iPhones.
[One (M7) Accessories] godutch:
I had gone full commando on my SGS2 (one tiny screen scratch) and occasionally on HOX (4 tiny almost paralel scratches in my first month but after that no more) when I couldn't find my pouch and both survived pretty well but the One seems to be more fragile. I got it in a flipcover atm, I don't like them but I can't find pouches that fit. Once I find a pouch I will use that (and occasionally go commando because I always misplace them)
[One (M7) Accessories] KH_:
I've been commando since day One, first day available in Holland. Have two cases, a thin snap on and flip cover, but the phone just doesn't feel right with a case. So not using them with normal use. Plan is to use the flip while traveling or so. I applied the screen protector supplied with the nillkin flip, good fit. Thinking of getting a skin for the back, icarbons just released a teaser for theirs looks quite good.
[One (M7) Accessories] peabody42:
Yeah, I had dry install for Nexus and it looked great. Put it under a little gentle heat and it became totally transparent. Only reason I like this wet application version is that it's pretty grippy!

Going commando just now. Not had any issues. Was thinking of getting an Otterbox commuter as I love the cases I have had for my iPhone in the past.
[One (M7) Accessories] Reckless187:
I've dropped my phone twice today once from waist height onto a vinyl floor and the second time from about a foot high onto a wooden bed frame. I'm glad I had a cover on it!
[One (M7) Accessories] Barsky:
I am going Ghost Armor Matte finish for the back, maybe the sides. I never ruin these phone's beautiful screen with screen protectors. never liked them.
[One (M7) Accessories] InfiniteRefrain:
I haven't decided on a case, or sleeve as of yet. Although I will put a screen protector on it. I had some sand scratch the screen on my HTC 8x. Did not mess with the touch screen, but you could feel it during use.
[One (M7) Accessories] Galactus:
No case, getting phone insurance soon though. curious about those icarbon skins
[One (M7) Accessories] Kedgez:
Have you tried the ones in Etsy such as these: http://www.etsy.com/shop/phocket/se...r=date_desc&view_type=gallery&ref=shop_search
[One (M7) Accessories] ilogik:
I've dropped my phone from waist high twice also, but on asphalt... This is one sturdy phone, I have some scratches on the front and corner aluminum grilles but the screen and the back is flawless still. I bought iCarbons brushed aluminum skin to cover the scratches, hope it'll look decent.
[One (M7) Accessories] anil_robo:
Commando here

Using it without any case. Have screen protector though, which is barely visible. I have a very oily skin, and every time I talk to somebody, the phone gathers plenty of natural moisturizers from my cheek. The plastic film makes it reassuring to wipe off every once in a while.
[One (M7) Accessories] recoverytrouble:
I can't stand screen protectors but I'm pretty safe with my phones. I got a red "Nillkin" brand case off eBay & am thinking about cutting a section out to show off the beats logo. Just cos I'm cool like that! This phone really looks nice with no case thou so I can see the quandary you're in :)
[One (M7) Accessories] bmoreboy02:
Bought a defender....popped the built in protector off and put my own on

I had a tranparrent case in for The First 5-6days, but Tool it off today and put in a transparrent fullbody film to jeep the agape of The phone, and still have at least some protection against scratches
[One (M7) Accessories] :
I went commando for a week but the phone is too nice to F@#k it up and with MY phone ocd i had to case it. Ran over to Sprint for the Otterbox Commuter Black...not bad. AT&T only had defender and i couldnt wait to order a Seidio or Poetic like i really want lol. Im kinda impressed with it. Reminds of my HTC Evo days.
[One (M7) Accessories] chivamex10:
Been going commando since day one and still going strong. Sold a customer an invisible shield and he said he had no need for the back piece since he grabbed a case so I went ahead and used it myself. If anyone is thinking of getting a zagg make sure to get the dry install. Its just what I needed. The matte finish keeps the phone looking natural but it provides a better grip at the same time. Its perfect.

Top right part of my phone came apart after a few days of having it, because i dropped it. bad luck for me :(
[One (M7) Accessories] Kedgez:
This leather sleeve just reached my doorsteps and it is simply stunning both in looks and feel. The high quality leather with exquisite workmanship just screams premium. Truly befitting the also premium HTC One. At this moment, this is hands down THE most amazing HTC One pouch I've ever come across.

I can safely use it commando and know that it is safe in the leather pouch whenever it is not in use :D
[One (M7) Accessories] mfpreach:
Phone fell out of my pants onto concrete a number of times already haha, have dents on the corners. It is to be expected with my history though. I am now looking for the most minimal case there is just to protect against dents on the corners (a really slim bumper would work great). My wife uses an aluminium bumper on her iphone 4s, it would be perfect for what I want!

I have accidental damage protection and I also don't really care if the back is scratched. Just dents.
[One (M7) Accessories] AirSupply:
This is commando enough for me. Bestskinsever screen - back protector and Draco aluminum bumper.
[One (M7) Accessories] sttrinh:
I love the Nillkin cases! This was the first case I saw so far that made me even consider putting a case over the beautiful phone. How do you like it so far? One thing I tend to get annoyed with, is that some cases make it more difficult to press the volume up/down buttons on the side. Do you have this problem with the Nillkin cases?
[One (M7) Accessories] aznxk3vi17:
I've always gone commando on my phones (albeit some with pouches). Then again, my phones in the past were either plastic or glass. The aluminum on the One (and iPhone 5) are too soft and malleable for me to feel safe with a case, considering my level of OCD. Thus, I have it in a $10 case until my Sena leather pouch arrives.
[One (M7) Accessories] ElBeaner:
Could you link to the exact shield you bought? I went and picked up a Zagg shield and am not liking the glossy finish it has.
[One (M7) Accessories] XZ32:
Going commando since I got it (2 weeks), as I didn't find a proper pouch yet.

Considering to not get one at all though hehe.
[One (M7) Accessories] MrShoe:
That is what I was hoping for. I wanted a clear thin film to cover back/sides as well. However, it dropped on my way out of the building.

Thankfully there is no damage to the glass.The metal got a few scratches, but it was bound to happen.

I would definitely suggest protecting the metal housing.
[One (M7) Accessories] bob2300nx:
Its been less than 24hrs and it seems my white boarder has some faint scratches. Are other people who are going commando having the same problem?
[One (M7) Accessories] payh0ta:
How's that been working for you? I've been thinking about getting that one, but it looks like it might feel weird on the phone, or the edge might catch as I put it in my pocket. What do you think?
[One (M7) Accessories] reNeglect:
I see that eBay already has the metal housing parts for sale, about 50$ a pop i wonder how much would it cost for a housing transfer... if its another 50$ it wouldn't be to bad i would actually stay commando and just replace the housing a year later. I've already drop my phone twice and i'm not to happy about the dents and scratches on the chamfered edges
[One (M7) Accessories] quahog_convo:
Have you gotten yours yet? Would love to see some pictures.

And also, for those of you that already use pouches... do you just rely on audible alerts for notifications on the phone? Do pouches absorb the vibration when you turn the sound off? And as far as I can see, all pouches block the notification LED.
[One (M7) Accessories] ThePhoneGeek:
Nothing but commando for me since I got my DE about a month ago.

Just seems wrong to cover up a beauty like this with a case...

MG
[One (M7) Accessories] recoverytrouble:
The particular one I bought leaves the volume button exposed along with the power button. Actually the top & bottom of the phone are almost completely bare. So far though, until I drop it, the case is doing what a need it to.
[One (M7) Accessories] ahighone:
Pre-ordered... should be shipping out today.

The audible alerts and vibrations are not absorbed by the pouch in the least.

Yes it covers the LED... but I never relied on that anyways.

In my pocket - pull it out - slip the phone out - check the screen - slip it back in - back in pocket.

0 profile case... never had an issue... and the Sena cases are very classy and unique.

I don't like bulky cases or screen protectors. I also had an otter-box case for the times I would go someplace that might need extra protection like camping or ball games or mounting in the car for trips.... or whatever... but when you're out on the town or at work or home the Sena case is very satisfying and is very good looking.

Looks and feels great.

Hope this helps.
[One (M7) Accessories] darkjuan:
I'm Commando but in stealth mode. I've got the Phantom Skinz Matte Full Body on mine. I've used these for my past 2 phones (Sensation and G2). I also get a little OCD with my phones and this saves me the worry of sliding my phone across the surface of anything!
[One (M7) Accessories] Magpir:
do u have any pictures??
[One (M7) Accessories] sieg131:
i've been switching my phone in and out of various cases, but nothing matches the sleek appeal of commando, so long as i don't scratch the lense i'll be happy.
[One (M7) Accessories] darkjuan:
Here are some pics...

I watch a lot of movies on my phone and a clear screen is very important. The image through the screen protector is like nothing is even there. And sliding your finger across the surface is just like glass. I use to have a phone with the InvisiShield or what ever it's called and it always seemed a little sticky, not as smooth as it would be on glass. But I have no issues at all with the Phantom Skinz screen protector (It ships with a film that you have to remove. Otherwise it will look like you have streaks all over the screen). The Matte surface is nice and smooth. It isn't rough at all and slides easily in and out of your pocket.

Installation can be a little tricky so have patience. Follow the installation directions carefully. If you get dust on the sticky surface it's VERY dificult to remove.

In the last image showing the camera lens, I do wish there was a clear protector for that. I can see that getting dinged or scratched if you aren't careful and I actually had to make a hole for the noise canceling hole at the bottom left of the image with an exacto blade, but otherwise everything fits like a glove.
[One (M7) Accessories] Magpir:
thanks for the pictures, but is the metal lining on the phone corners also covered?
[One (M7) Accessories] darkjuan:
It doesn't wrap around. Just the major flat surfaces.
[One (M7) Accessories] Magpir:
Ok thanks ...
[One (M7) Accessories] chivamex10:
I can't imagine how difficult this phone is to take apart.. No visible screws. I'm guessing you'd have to pry the phone apart?
[One (M7) Accessories] reNeglect:
Well Ifixit, basically pryed their unit apart which is fine because you're replacing the housing anyways... The dents i already have my phone make me very unhappy if it costs lets say 50$ housing + 50$ for the labour i would be a very happy man...
[One (M7) Accessories] MotoXoom:
Had mine over 1 month now and just don't want to cover its beauty :)

Tried a couple of screen protectors, mate and clear but both take away the clarity of the screen.

Also using a charging dock therefore cant really use a case as it wont fit anymore :)
