INCIPIO Octane case -Navy

here are a few pics of this case i got from incipio.com i know a few were posted that had the black variant of the case. here is the navy color. overall i like it alot. one problem i did notice tho, isn't there a second mic on the bottom next to the usb c port? i might have to get in touch with incipio about this.

edit: i will post pics later. i had my driver i.d. in the shots. can't believe i didn't notice it lol
[HTC U11  Accessories] mouzaihem:
Incipia dualpro or octane? Can't decide between the two
[HTC U11  Accessories] Kisakuku:
Silicone layer of Dual Pro will eventually get stretched out around the corners and top / bottom edges. Octane is definitely better in terms of durability.
[HTC U11  Accessories] mouzaihem:
Which one do you think feels/looks nicer? My S8 has a Spiegel tough armor case that I really like...looking for something like that
[HTC U11  Accessories] daniel2744:
I have the octane case and i like it alot. here are pics from mine
[HTC U11  Accessories] mouzaihem:
Looks nice. I'll order it. Thanks
[HTC U11  Accessories] theotrman:
Does the HTC charging cable and HTC Ear Bud USB connect with the case on?
[HTC U11  Accessories] *justintime*:
Such a shame those cover up cases. Gone is the most beautiful part.

Each of their own... I guess.
[HTC U11  Accessories] mouzaihem:
I agree and have never covered an HTC phone before...but the combination of it being all glass, relatively large, a bit slippery and uninsured (because I couldn't get it through my service provider)... well, there's your reason why it's time for some protection.
[HTC U11  Accessories] *justintime*:
Oh you don't own me an explanation or something.

Normally i dont use cases either. And the am not a fan of TPU clear case. But for this phone it has to. [emoji3].

Still the shimmering blinking shine.
[HTC U11  Accessories] deafmetal1:
I'll been a DualPro user for my last 3 phones (LG G series), NEVER had a single issue with them (silicone stretching? not even with my G5 changing the battery...). Yes it covers up the "brilliant" color of the phone, but it protects the heck out of it (and I've had some bad drops, without issue). I personally would rather protect my investment, especially after all the work to ROOT and tweak my U11. But to each his/her own, it's great to have choices for level of protection/visual glory.

I will say that this version of the Incipio DualPro (just received/installed yesterday), and the curvature of the screen edges create a "dust/dirt valley" of sorts around the inner edges, and may require case removal on a monthly/quarterly basis to keep everything clean.
[HTC U11  Accessories] Andrew725:
Just received my Spigen Rugged Armor. Not bad, if you've ever had a Rugged Armor for any other phone then you know what to expect. It fits and feels exactly the same on a U11.

Was supposed to get a Spigen Liquid Crystal as well but they sent me 2 Rugged Armors ?
[HTC U11  Accessories] mouzaihem:
Can you post some pictures of it on the phone?
[HTC U11  Accessories] Andrew725:
Here are a few pics, sorry if I didn't capture all of the desired angles. It's a high quality case. The fit in particular is spot-on, very snug and perfect and the cutouts are all there, and the buttons are nice and snappy. The case maintains most of the phone's slim profile, it's not a bulky case at all. Edge Sense works without issue. Would I call it 'Rugged'? Ahhhh, the case is so slim, I'm not so sure about the shock protection, nor am I willing to test it. Leave that up to the smart guy Jerry with the disposable funds.

I love the matte finish, no fingerprints. As for the back design...meh you can take it or leave it. Overall I like it a lot, but being a case addict I probably won't stop here.

BTW Spigen customer service wrote me back that the duplicate Rugged Armor was actually a gift, and that the Liquid Crystal, for all intent and purpose, still hasn't been released until late June, so mine is apparently still on the way. Hopefully or maybe someone can disprove this.
[HTC U11  Accessories] daniel2744:
do you have some kind of glass protector on the display? if so which one is it? looks like it but i'm not sure. I wasn't planning on getting one but who knows i might?

---------- Post added at 05:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:19 PM ----------

yes they do.
[HTC U11  Accessories] Andrew725:
Yes it is the Top Ace full front cover glass. It is a full front tgsp with a black border to cover up the normal halo you would get with the 2.5d glass, like Intelliarmor Pro.

I will leave a review in the screen protector thread.
[HTC U11  Accessories] *justintime*:
Received the Acetop TPU case. And it's much thicker and less flexible than the cheap Aliexpress one.

There is some texture on the backside, but you don't feel it on the outside.

The buttons are a bit hard to press. That i don't like about it.

All holes are there...

I prefer the two dollar case more than this one.

How did you get Spigen cases already? I thought they were shipping out next week.

I guess it depends on how many ask about case for U11 will be.
[HTC U11  Accessories] fix-this!:
i got some incipio case when i bought the device from sprint. its going to be going back and im buying the spiegen carbon fiber one. it will be available on amazon on tuesday.
[HTC U11  Accessories] djbutter:
I didn't want to cover up the beauty of the phone, so instead of getting a case (I got a clear TPU case but it added too much heft to an already big phone), I got a Skinomi full body skin. It was a huge pain to apply, but after an hour I'm quite happy about it.

As a bonus, now the phone is no longer slippery!
[HTC U11  Accessories] mouzaihem:
Got my Incipio octane case today. Pretty good. Will compare it to the spiegen rugged armor when it arrives
[HTC U11  Accessories] PeterMike:
Does it protect phone against falls like candyshell?
[HTC U11  Accessories] Haz04:
Can you share a link?
[HTC U11  Accessories] djbutter:
http://www.skinomi.com/sk29149-u-11-phone-skin-protector.html

It doesn't really protect against falls, just scratches and normal wear and tear.

[HTC U11  Accessories] levelrey:
Hey guys. I just received my Spigen crystal clear case from Amazon. Since this is the first Spigen case and/or clear case I have ever bought for any phone I can't really compare it to anything I have owned before. I will say that I like it especially for the price. It has mic holes everywhere it needs to have them. Aesthetically i wish it looked better as this phone is gorgeous. It is thick compared with the stock HTC clear case and feels very rubbery. There is extra lip on the front to protect the screen. Overall I am very happy with the purchase and am confident this will protect my phone until I can find that darn Official HTC leather case in stock somewhere. Had two orders cancelled because stock keeps getting pushed back at MobileFun.
[HTC U11  Accessories] JEANRIVERA:
could you post some pictures with the case on the device please?
[HTC U11  Accessories] ckupsco:
I got my spigen today as well. I love those cases. Have been using nothing else since my m9.

Spoken Liquid Crystal

Mine was delivered today. Seems to be the best clear case out there right now.
[HTC U11  Accessories] tokenbest:
Just curious for those who have cases on that covers the edge sense, how is it holding up and do you need to squeeze harder for edge sense to work?
[HTC U11  Accessories] tkoreaper:
I personally don't like the cutout for the camera and flash... I'd rather there be two separate cutouts so that there is no exposed gap between them like on the Spigen case. I ordered the Spigen as well as this one:

http://a.co/1F7GxNA I'll see which one I like better and report my findings, but it'll be a while because I don't have the phone yet... I ordered the Solar Red one.
[HTC U11  Accessories] Principe1:
I can only speak for the Spigen Liquid Crystal case and I haven't had to push any harder than without the case. Seems to be about the same squeeze force.;)

---------- Post added at 02:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 AM ----------

I agree with you concerning the cutout for flash/camera. I wonder if it has anything to do with the flash possibly interfering with the clear plastic and maybe causing a glare when taking a picture. I don't know if that makes sense or not.
[HTC U11  Accessories] eckharttim:
The TopACE clear case I have has the camera and flash cut out individually. Looks and works great. Edge sense functions as if there were no case on it
[HTC U11  Accessories] JEANRIVERA:
could you post some pictures please?
[HTC U11  Accessories] eckharttim:
Look it up on Amazon, there are several pics there to show the case. It has all the needed cut outs for all mics

[HTC U11  Accessories] JEANRIVERA:
That is what I was afraid about the back part looks with a lot of dots just like the spigen
[HTC U11  Accessories] eckharttim:
That part doesn't bother me. You can still clearly see the color and reflective qualities of your 11. The original case that came with the 11 showed the same, but was a lot harder to hold on to.
[HTC U11  Accessories] Andrew725:
The one downer about both Spigen cases out right now (Rugged Armor and Liquid Crystal) is that the full front type glass screen protectors with the colored borders are not compatible with either case. The lip on both will cause the screen protector to lift.

The Rugged Armor is more forgiving, you might be able to get away with a full tgsp on it, but the Liquid Crystal will not work at all.
[HTC U11  Accessories] waldaz:
Hi, is the the egde sense working ok with spigen case? I do not like htc stock case, and only this spigen looks quite ok. Cheers.

hopefully with more color choices, the existing line up are pretty dull
[HTC U11  Accessories] grafik2:
I have the Rugger Armor from Spigen, would prefer a dual type case like they have made for past HTC models but this one will do for now.

Do people really put screen protectors on? Aren't these Gorilla glass screens supposed to be pretty durable? I didnt use a screen protector on my M8 and across 2.5 years never got a scratch I don't want to blur/diminish my phones screen by adding a protector
[HTC U11  Accessories] Principe1:
I'm with you. I haven't used a screen protector since Gorilla Glass 2. I haven't had a problem with scratches and have put my keys/change in the same pocket as my phone (on accident) many times. After I do this, I'm always amazed when I nervously pull my phone out to inspect the damage and find none.
[HTC U11  Accessories] rajackar:
Can anyone comment on the case that is included? I'm wondering if it is soft or hard and if it makes the phone bulkier?

Thanks!!
[HTC U11  Accessories] *justintime*:
It's hard plastic and totally no drop protection.

Be sure to get another one. The design however I like.
[HTC U11  Accessories] rajackar:
OK, good to know. I'm still considering this phone but I really hate the breakable glass back as I'm not the most careful person in the world (I actually stepped on my S6). But I also don't want a super thick case on my phone.
[HTC U11  Accessories] Timewise:
In addition to what justintime said, the material is extremely prone to cratches. Currently I am using it, but only because I'm waiting on the navy dual pro from incipio.
[HTC U11  Accessories] rajackar:
Thanks! This is very helpful.

Would you say the phone itself is very prone to scratching. I have an S6 now and apart from fall damage the glass itself is relatively ok after two years without a case.
[HTC U11  Accessories] Timewise:
Honestly I can't really say, since I've only received my u11 2.5 weeks ago. Since then I dropped it once at home without the case and it wasn't damaged anywhere. Although I wouldn't try outside obviously.
[HTC U11  Accessories] rajackar:
OK thanks!

Just ordered mine. Hopefully I will have it tomorrow.
[HTC U11  Accessories] PeterMike:
Same here, but waiting for gunmetal version. Will test it with Rugged Armor case.

[HTC U11  Accessories] Howling Wolf:
Strange, I could see it with the Dark Gray edition which I sent back because not practical for Sense Edge...
[HTC U11  Accessories] skypilotofhope:
I'm still working Edge Sense with mine. Definitely you can't see the notification light at all with the white

By the way, is it me, or is the U11 notification light smaller than the HTC 10's?
[HTC U11  Accessories] fix-this!:
I got the spiegen case and its pretty decent. not as durable as I like but will do for now. hopefully theres a unicorn beatle or ringke fusion case in the works.
[HTC U11  Accessories] LibertyMonger:
I ordered the Dark Gray, you say Sense Edge does not work well but you can see the notification light? Can you comment any more on it? How well protection is and wonder if it would work well with a skin like this
[HTC U11  Accessories] skypilotofhope:
Edge Sense can work with the HTC protective leather case, just a bit cumbersome. The notification light doesn't show at all as there's no cut out for it to show through. I have the white case though; perhaps you can see it better through the dark grey version.

That skin looks like it'll work fine with Edge Sense.

What's the cleanest crystal clear TPU Case that doesn't affect the way the color of the back shifts?

Cheers
[HTC U11  Accessories] tkoreaper:
That's the exact same case as this one except for the branding. http://a.co/2EeAmk6

I would get the one I linked because there is no branding. Compared to the Spigen clear case it is noticeably thinner. As a result it's more flimsy because it's not as thick as the Spigen case, but whether or not that's a good thing is up to you.
[HTC U11  Accessories] aknotts415:

I am using the official dark grey leather flip case. It is very beautiful and classy.

Edge Sense doesn't work with it but it was expected.

However I am a little disappointed by the lack of hole for the notification led (which is not visible when the case is closed). There are holes for the speaker and the front camera which I don't find very useful so why not putting a hole for the notification led ?

When I see the what Samsung does with the led view and the clear view, it is a shame for HTC.

I will keep it nonetheless, because I want a flip case and this one looks very very nice.
