I have been taking a look at this case on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Black-Monac...ryZ20336QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I like the looks of it. It locks the casing so that your tilt wont open by accident. The only thing I dont like about it is that once you open the cover, your top wont be protected anymore. There is also neoprene inside the casing for extra protection.

What do you guys think?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mrphatpat:
that's the same black aluminum case that I have I really like it. ask a question if you have one.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] leona:
I have just got myself a o2 Stellar, so I am looking for a case, is there other choices other than black leather, a little 'boring' I feel. The metal ones look a good idea, guess I could paint them in a colour of my choosing then, are they any good, do they protect the screen enough, it'll be spending a lot of time in my handbag so will need a far amount of protection from all the other junk in there :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] enragedpaza:
how about this one? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001CZD4YG?smid=A1FRD9WRQL1FII&tag=dealtime-app-mp06-20&linkCode=asn anyone use this before?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] enragedpaza:
one more question... w/ the noreve case, does the tilt fit w/ the rubber case attached to it? thnx in advance!:D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] kahibbi:
I'm not sure what the 'rubber case' is you mention. The Noreve case takes the Tilt 'naked' ... meaning the phone itself slips into the Noreve case. That's the one I used when I used a case. My wife uses it now. She had a Krussel case for her Tilt but never used the keyboard because she didn't like the plastic covering ... she always used the stylus. I put her phone in the Noreve and she now uses the keyboard all the time. Definitely makes a difference!

I just carry my Tilt around in my pocket w/o a case as I did every other cell phone I've ever owned.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] enragedpaza:
was talking about a case like seidio but different brand lol
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] anoano:
I didn't buy it there but it looks the same as mine. Good quality, fits perfectly, good protection as a phone and/or a PDA, with the advantage of not having any plastic cover over the keyboard, magnetic closure for the upper part covering the screen. Overall a useful model I can recommend.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] enragedpaza:
thanks, im looking at that and noreve like them both :D so i dont know
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] masshlx:
Does anybody have this model?

http://cgi.ebay.com/InnoPocket-Blac...ryZ20336QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

What I'm looking for is a case that will protect my phone, especially the screen. I cracked the screen 2 days ago, it's off for repairs right now. I made the mistake of having it in a soft sided case, can't afford to make that mistake again.

What I'm looking for is a case that will protect my phone and screen from damage, not necessary for case to be able to allow me to use phone, I'll take it out out of case for that if needed.

TyTn II (Tilt)

Too expensive. Go find CAPDASE leather case design for HTC TYTN II on Ebay. About 16 pounds. Made in HONGKONG.

Good quality !
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] MannyNoela:
i have a similar case -- called Monaco case -- and it does protect the phone well. I also switched to this type of hard case after breaking my screen....

so go for it, search for the Monaco case -- it is good...

rgds, MN
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] masshlx:
This looks good, but I was hoping for a case with no openings.

But if this is not something that is available, then I'll go for the Monaco.

Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] hofo_mofo:
yeah i got the email today saying that it is for sale...and when i saw it, i flipped...this case looks awesome...i already have one for my prophet so i am not worried about the quality..:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mrpotts:
Amazing List Here

What a list of cases here,...and growing! I am busy scouring the streets of Hong Kong looking for what is available here and for what price. The Kaiser has been out about 2 weeks here and you are really starting to see the advertisements all over the place, the MTR subways, billboards, cellphone store displays, etc. Accessories are being released and made as we speak.

Cheers,

PC:D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] saint168:
I am going to HK in Dec, let me know what kind of interesting accessories you found for the Tilt. Are you shopping at the Golden or Mong Kok?

Stephen
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] GWelker62:
That's the ebayer I purchased mine from. I've gotton all the rest from SFPlanet, but they didn't have this style.

You did order the right size didn't you? The one recommended for the Tilt is small/wide.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mrpotts:
Without a doubt, the Golden Computer Center (GCC) in Sham Shui Po is the best place I have found for computers/electronics in HK. I am in Mong Kok a few times a week but GCC is more variety and slightly better prices. I am a pretty hard shopper to find the best deal (Jew New Yorker, no jokes :o ), but they have tightened up alot here on the prices with all the legitimate western goods here now. You may spend hours negotiating with dozens of merchants on a products only to save $5 US in the end. I've gotten to the point of looking around at 5 to 6 shops and then just buying what I am looking for. My time has a value too :D. By the time you get here Stephen, I will have been up to Shenzhen 1 or 2 times and from what I am being told, the prices are quite a bit cheaper up there across the border. We shall see, I picked up my visa yesterday and I'm looking to go up on the 29th-30th for a look. How you long in town for. Perhaps we can meet up for a beer :D

Cheers,

Phil
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Wakeboard:
The one I have for the P3300 indeed is one with a flap of leather dangling. For the Kaiser I prefer/hope it will be more convenient while on the phone, although I don't think it will stop me from purchasing looking at fit and quality.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Yorch:
I recently got the Designio leather case from Boxwave:

http://www.boxwave.com/products/dlsleeve/htc-kaiser-designio-leather-sleeve_2642.htm

And is nice, very small not bulky and covers the phone just right.

I'm not a fan of the clip though, still looking for the definitive case.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] h0mersimps0n:
OK, all these cases don't do it for me. I need something that easily clips off my belt to answer the phone quickly, protects the screen and doesn't annoy me with huge flaps while I talk on the phone.

I think this case would almost do it but the price is way to high if I'm doing the conversion correctly for US dollars?

https://www.noreve.com/product_info.php?products_id=2069

I'm an intern now but I'll be a Emergency Medicine Resident next year so being able to whip my device off my belt to look something up or use the phone needs to be effortless and non-annoying.

I can't seem to find one that does all of that. Suggestions?

Any aluminum cases yet?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] guinevere:
I really like this one.....thanks for posting it up.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] simon-ph:
Don't use the conversion factor. There should be a US sub-site that will display a lower US price, like $45.

I haven't decided yet, but I am leaning towards a body guardz skin and this...

http://www.seidioonline.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=871

What I like about it is that you can flip the phone around so it faces outward, making it easier to use while still in the case, but obvously, you can not use the keyboard with this
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Wakeboard:
As mentioned before, Pielframa will be mine.

Found the images on their website:

Images TyTN II case

Looks like the one of Novere.com. As I Like the option of Croc skin from Pielframa, it will be Pielframa for me. I will post my experiences when it has arrived.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] 3waygeek:
I got an e-mail from Piel Frama overnight about the new Tytn II case -- I'm a bit disappointed as they're going the plastic keyboard overlay route. I'm using the PDAir flip case now (also a plastic overlay) -- I'll probably end up going with the Krusell once I find a good price.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] saint168:
For accessories like phone cases I would buy from Shenzhen, but I don't trust the quality of electronic products over there. I would rather pay a little more and buy from HK. I know everything is "made in China" but the stuff they export is a little better. I may have to delay my trip to March next year due to family issues. How much are they asking for the Tilt battery and desktop charger? That is something I definitely need.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] cman6453:
When the display is disengaged (tilt mode) in the Noreve case, does that mean that it just loosely sits there or is it secured some other way? Concerned mostly with the design not if it will actually fall out or not. Will those tabs mar the bezel of the display?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] kahibbi:
I just ordered the Krusell from SFPlanet for $24.99. That's better than a lot of the cases on ebay from Hong Kong.

http://www.sfplanet.com/category/pda.htc.htc_tytn_ii_p4550_/

I'm not real sure on the whole flap thing, so I also bought the Noreve, too ... yes, it has a flap but it flips the other way. My wife and I both have Tilts so I'll let her have the one she likes. I'll report back when then arrive. The Noreve doesn't have the plastic keyboard cover and I'm hoping it's still secure when open. The Boxwave looks nice and will likely keep scratches from the phone but it looks a little flimsy and I doubt the case will stay on the phone in texting mode. If anyone picks that one up, please report back.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] MrSlacker:
I just got my Krusell Horizon Small-Wide case 10min ago. Tilt fits it very nicely. Holes on the side almost fit, but I see no point in them anyway. Clip seems solid and fits my belt just fine. I'll see how it is when walking around and running later on.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Squeaker:
Any feedback on this case? It's got my vote so far, but I'm waiting to hear from someone who's actually used it before I commit!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] etijburg:
I have this case and love it. I did cut off the leather strap thatt folds over the phone. It was driving me nuts. Since then i love it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Allude2Prelude97@gmail.co:
Could someone with the Krusell Orbit case post some different pics. I am a bit confused as to how it works. http://i.expansys.com/i/b/b157639.jpg Its the third pic thats thowing me off. The part the phone is standing up on doesnt look like its in either of the other two pics. :confused:

Edit: nevermind, i saw another post with pics.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] silkshadow:
How's the PDair case? Its one that I can get for cheap. From the pics it looks like every other leather case I see on the net so I am wondering why its so cheap when others are 4x the price.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] 3waygeek:
I've had the PDAir flip case for the last couple of weeks. It fits pretty tightly around the device, yet the device is easy to remove from the case when you need to -- not that you'll need to very often, since it has cutouts to access everything on the device (except for the GPS antenna and battery).

The only real problem with the case is that it doesn't have any memory card storage slots.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] silkshadow:
Appreciate that, 3waygeek! Sounds good, I was worried it was made of plastic or something weird like that. I will get it this week :).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] 3waygeek:
Well, there is a bit of plastic -- the keyboard cover. The rest appears to be leather -- not as high quality as you'd find in a Piel Frama, but close enough.

If you plan on getting the PDAir case, there's an eBay vendor, Siemshop, who is selling them for $18.99. That's where I bought mine -- figure a week for delivery from HK.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] NFRCER:
Anyone knows where i can buy the case that is included with HTC Kaiser/tytn 2 without buying the kaiser, since i have the ATT tilt.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] kelford:
Here it is... http://www.mobileplanet.com/p.aspx?i=148520&asource=151727

The same case as the one that comes included with the HTC branded Kaiser.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] drokkon:
I'm trying to decide between the cheap "Carry Mobile" cases on eBay (here) and the Noreve case (here). It looks like they both have space for MicroSD cards, and they have the horizontal flaps vs. the vertical ones, which I like.

1) However, when they say that their clips swivel 360 degrees, does that mean I can lock it and carry it horizontally? I really don't want the phone to hang vertically.

2) The eBay ones have a magnetic closure - I've heard that this may affect the Tilt adversely - is that true?

3) I guess the only other question is the plastic over the keyboard or not. I guess without the plastic seems a little nicer, but...?

So does anyone have any input on which is the better case? I'm also vaguely looking at the model here, but mostly because they have a neat GPS mounting solution.

Any help would amazing so I can put this order in!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mrpotts:
Here's our list so far:

Proporta.com

Pielframa.com

Krusell.se

Designio Leather Sleeve

Noreve.com

Seidioonline.com

Of course you could go to Ebay & enter "HTC TyTN II"

And a good list of accessories here

MobilePlanet.com has a good list of accessories with a "HTC TyTN II" search

I still haven't bought a case but I definitely need one. I dropped the Kaiser about 18 inches the other day :eek: It held up like a champ without even a scuff mark. Lucky :o Anyway, I am looking for a case where the phone will stay in the case when it is opened and tilted up. I think I would prefer not having plastic over the keyboard as I feel this 'dulls' the keyboard response. Also, I'd probably prefer leather for padding.

Great links in this forum! :D

Cheers,

Phil
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] silkshadow:
Thanks again 3waygeek! Actually the local distributor where I am is selling it for ~US$12 (currency conversion), when I looked at the prices of the other cases they were all closer or over US$30, which is why I was thinking something might be fishy :). But it sounds like its just a very good price.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mrpotts:
BTW, I am in Hong Kong and I am more then willing to go personally to this vendor, Siemshop, if we can get an address for them.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] drokkon:
I've been told I ask too many questions in a post, which is why I'm ignored. I guess I can take a hint. :) Well here's just one then: has anyone found a case that allows you to clip it to your belt horizontally? They all say "360 degree swivel clip," but fail to mention if you can lock it so that it hangs vertically or horizontally. I just don't want it to dangle vertically is all.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] RemE:
If it's a horizontal flap case, most likely it's got a fixed, horizontal clip. The vertical ones that I prefer, usually swivel freely.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] 3waygeek:
The Piel Frama's button (the thing that the clip engages) is mounted in such a way that it'll hang horizontally.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] zaki67:
Do not buy the PD Air case Ive had it fo 10 days and now its useless.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] RemE:
What happened to the case? Did it stretch out?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] drokkon:
Does anyone know if there's any truth to the rumor that magnetic clasps on cases adversely affect the phone itself? Like electronically?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] PhilipL:
Hi

No the magnet will not affect the phone which already contains magnets from the speakers and microphone. There is nothing in the Kaiser that would be affected by a magnet, except perhaps the sensor for the keyboard. There are some reports the magnet triggers the sensor for the keyboard so the Kaiser thinks you have opened it and will turn on in landscape mode. This is because the sensor works when a magnet moves under it as the keyboard is opened (so another magnet in the phone). This would not be permanent. Provided you get a case designed for the Kaiser it should be designed in such a way the magnet can't trigger the sensor accidentally in normal use.

Stock case ain't a case

Hi All,

IMHO, a case is not a case if to use the phone you must remove it from the case, expose it to the oil/dirt on your hands & the atmosphere, and otherwise leave it unprotected while in use, which is it's most vulnerable time. That's why the stock Kaiser case and others of that style are unacceptable to me. Again, that's just IMHO.

Cheers,

Phil
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mrpotts:
That's pretty good. When did you write to them? I wrote on 10/25 but haven't heard anything back yet.

Cheers,

Phil
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mrpotts:
Is this the ultimate Kaiser case (when it comes out!)?

IMHO, this would be the best option I have seen so far providing:

1. the slide AND tilt is unobstructed by the case, and

2. the keyboard is uncovered by plastic allowing cleaning with a soft cloth.

What do you think?

Cheers,

Phil
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] SteinyD:
IMHO, a phone is a phone and intended to be used as a phone. Providing reasonable protection for the screen is a good thing. Reasonable protection when it is not in use and in the careful protection of your hand is a good thing. However, when it is at my face or in my hands for active use, I hate the feeling of having extra 'flaps' hanging around, weighting down the device, lying against my face on a hot summer day - Eek .. nothing I hate worse.

So everyone has one and my opinion is the more naked the phone the better. I agree that the original case shipped with the TyTN is just the right thing. I'm using mine with the Tilt / Kaiser. I just wish there were one that fit the phone a bit more snuggly since the Kaiser is a bit narrower than the Hermes.
