IMagnum case

This is case i decided on. I figured if phone cost so much, I should get great case. I'm sure there are lots of good 1's, this is best case I could find for ease of use & protection. I think sides & corners are well protected, case sticks out around corners that aren't completely covered with hard material. I dropped out of coat pocket, hit on corner of phone on cement floor. Just very little scuff on case, nothing to phone,I really like it! Quig

ps, the flip front cover part works well as stand, vertical or horizontal.
[HD2 Accessories] nsx_23:
I bought one of these:

For my HD2. Made by a company called Viva. Got it got $280HKD.

Its a nice lightweight case. I do wish the sides were protected more, but overall it grips the phone very tightly and protects the screen, which is the main thing really. Might also pick up a cheapo silicone skin as a backup though.
[HD2 Accessories] Shadowdh:
Well got my case finally... its the P-Dair book style case (http://www.pdahut.com/store/product.php?productid=21838&cat=2727&page=1 ) I thought it looked ok and it would hold my phone on three sides with the opening being at the top of where the flap opens... (sort of like my X1 case) but this is basically a flip case with a book style flap... the phone goes in from the side (and to be fair it has a little plastic bit to stop the phone falling out, but this is not attachable to anything else and does not appear to be very capable of holding in anything)... the case does hold the phone quite well though and covers the corners very well and sides are adequately protected. The clip is sturdy and has two parts, one that clips to your belt and one that screws into the case... the bit that screws into the case slides into the belt part and is held very securely and is fairly easy to remove so you can answer the phone quick enough, although it is a pain to answer with the flap and not being able to take the phone out to answer.... the holes in the case match the phones speakers, sensors and bits very well and its easy to hear the ringer and message tones... over all its an ok case but not what I was after really, I would prefer to be able to take the phone out to answer instead of keeping it in the case...

Hi , is there any website for reference or where to get from internet ?
[HD2 Accessories] digimaz:
There has been feedback from users that the red dye on the inside of the case stains the HD2.
[HD2 Accessories] fred_up:
Why not get a belt type? Thus reducing the sit-on chances.

PDAir for HD2 - cost about £16 incl. delivery from a few places in the UK.
[HD2 Accessories] ozkaya:
has anyone tried this one?

http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Leather-Cas...QQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item19b9b97583#shId

It was really cheap so I just ordered. I'm wondering whether the magnetic closure will affect the compass too much.
[HD2 Accessories] NeoGreendawg:
I just received the Piel Frama cowskin-crocodile case.

The case is absolutely beautiful and fits perfectly. Delivery only took three days to get here (Spain-France).

Has anyone tried the Piel Frama car holders?
[HD2 Accessories] don_sefer:
Has anyone tried this case? think about order it for me :D

Also thought about this from german site...

http://www.bugatti-mobilecases.de/h...ct=3051&item=2&modell=4201&picid=2331&lang=DE

but dont know which one i'll take...^^
[HD2 Accessories] nniicckkss:
If it's the same as the one I just sent back, then you will get what you paid for!
[HD2 Accessories] jcrompton:
I bought the Piel Frama. it is a great case but a little hard to get used to the flip.

anyone know if Otterbox will make a case for our HD2's

I dropped my first HD2 only two feet from a chair and out literally shattered! My point is that this phone needs protection!
[HD2 Accessories] Laurentius26:
I can highly recommend this case:

http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000801&products_id=24605

Simple and suites perfect.
[HD2 Accessories] Windkracht13:
Laurentius26, can you take some pic's from this case, on the site the pics are to small?

TH@NKZzz...
[HD2 Accessories] Meiyo:
neck

Any one know if there is any case , which can be hanged on the neck .

I couldn't find any in amazon , or maybe it doesn't say or something ?...

Ultra Cases for HD2???

Most of you may know about ultra-case.com

I love those cases but does anyone know if there are any 'ultra cases' for HD2?? I would appreciate if anyone could reply to my msg and provide any links.

I'm looking to 'pimp' my Leo! Maybe a custom designed battery cover or the type of cases seen on ultra-case.com. :-)
[HD2 Accessories] joeperez:
if you want a skin try google zagskins
[HD2 Accessories] laronov:
I buy this case

http://www.mobimega.com/capdase-capparel-protective-case-htc-hd2.html

very slim and nice.Very good for pocket

I also get it very fast ( pay at 17.02 and get it at 24.02 )
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
The search should be ZAGGskin.

However, the only skin that ZAGG support for the HD2 is the InvisibleSHIELD.

I've sent them a message asking if they intend to support the HD2 with their ZAGGskin program. :)

http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000801&products_id=24579

flip type case for a flipping person like myself.:D

jokes aside, I do rely alot on the belt clip, since I have to wear suits to work daily, so bulging trouser pocket is a must not for me.

I like the looks, goes with my daily dress code as well, some of my clients actually complements me on the case also. great conversation starter.

not bad at all.
[HD2 Accessories] ozkaya:
I hope that bright red inner cover won't stain your HD2. can you post some photos?
[HD2 Accessories] skylinepigeon:
Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me find a truly transparent case for my HD2. I'd prefer a resin/gel case over a silicone one, as they are less sticky. I want a clear one because my phone is skinned and I want it to show through :). I have looked all over the place but can only find gray ones and patterned ones. I would be very thankful for any help.
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Have a look at this one from Greymobiles.

I have the Smoke colour which although not completely transparent I like it a lot. I find it fits the HD2 nicely. :)
[HD2 Accessories] droidzer:
A crystal case is what you're looking for?

http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000801&products_id=26651

apart from those I can't really thing of anything see-through / clear.
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
You forgot the one I mentioned in my post above yours. :)
[HD2 Accessories] droidzer:
So sorry dude, I just skimmed through your message and saw smoky grey as the color without going into the link, now that i see, it's almost next to being transparant / clear.

Some might even prefer that actually.

Nice one ;)
[HD2 Accessories] fantasytozi:
Thanks for ur recommended. I'm waiting for the same case but in black color from Germany. Unfortunately, greymobiles ran out of black one:)
[HD2 Accessories] skylinepigeon:
Hey thanks, but I was looking for something completely transparent. I can't post links, but I'm wondering if theres anything for HD2 like the case at:

[HD2 Accessories] phoniac:
Are you looking for a hard case? or just skins?

if you are looking for invisible shields look here:

Like someone else has mentioned with the crystal cases, a hard case look here:

[HD2 Accessories] koong32:

[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
I saw this one yesterday and was thinking about it myself... I'd ask the seller though if you can put any notes in it. :)
[HD2 Accessories] djngal:
Hmm as i can see from the pics the case leaves the upper part of the phone unprotected just like the original htc pouch that comes with the phone.

Just so u know a couple of weeks ago i dropped my hd2 INSIDE its htc pouch and i managed to crack its lcd screen!

Because of my damn luck, the phone hit the ground with the unprotected upper corner and the whole force of the impact was transferred to the screen... the outer glass is fine and not even a scratch on the phone housing but the screen has liquid from the cracked lcd....
[HD2 Accessories] Seifers:
I'm using "Resin Soft Skin Case For HTC HD2 T8585 HTC Leo - Black" along with a clear screen protector. I'm very satisfied because grip and feel of the phone is much better. Phone is thicker now but not much its just the same level with the camera, most people cant tell there is a soft case on the phone. Just today i dropped the phone to a metal surface and it hit hard from the side but he elastic resin case didn't let my precious HD2 to suffer :) i'm very happy with it the only problem is it doesn't fit to the car holder with the soft case but no big deal since it's really simple to take off and put back on

I have leather case surplus to requirements, sealed brand new:)

[HD2 Accessories] bocsta:
Where can I buy that case in black ?

Thanks!
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Wasn't this the one that got sold on ebay last month??
[HD2 Accessories] llcooljazz:
Bugatti have relased a nice slip pouch for the HD2. It's similar to PO S510, but it is really nice leather. It is thick too so offers better protection, but could be considered too bulky.
[HD2 Accessories] gordofski:
surplus to requirements......same as the one sold on ebay:)
[HD2 Accessories] gordofski:
you can't only brown at the moment:( shame really

but you must admit it looks really nice in the brown colour:)
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Right.... so you have sold one and are now selling another?
[HD2 Accessories] bocsta:
sweet!... matches the leather in my Veyron ;)
[HD2 Accessories] llcooljazz:
It matches my McLaren F1 for style.
[HD2 Accessories] un1ucky:
hii guys

im getting my hd2 in a couple weeks and was curious if this case would fit the hd2

#1 : http://shop.htcpedia.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=265

#2: http://shop.htcpedia.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=234

im also going to buy a rubber case that everyone here is talking about the resin rubber case. so my question is basically will the htc hd2 wearing the rubber case fit in this case?

thank you.
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Why don't you ask their Customer Services ~ Contact Us

.

At least then with the answer you receive if they say yes and it does not you will have grounds to return it for a full refund. :)
[HD2 Accessories] :
Hi guys, i have scanned thru a few pages but have not found the answer i am looking for. I have just bought my hd2 and want to get a hard skin for it. does such a thing exist? if so i want one in black. cheers.
[HD2 Accessories] byronlee:
this may be the one for you - silicon + metal case - you have the best from both worlds!

[HD2 Accessories] un1ucky:
those ones looks very nice. but ide rather go for rubberized case so if i do drop it. itll absorb some of the impact.
[HD2 Accessories] digimaz:
The cases are silicon on the inside. I have one myself and I would highly recomemnd it.
[HD2 Accessories] gavinfabl:
just bought white one, hope itz good. Capdase make some great cases.
[HD2 Accessories] :
hey thanks guys that capdase item looks ideal. Now i may be dumb but on that link i can see no where to actually buy them item. Am i missing something here?
[HD2 Accessories] gavinfabl:
use first link :)
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
These look very nice indeed.

Which colour Alumor Metal Case did you opt for Gavin?

I notice on the first link it only shows either Red or White yet both the first and second link show the black as well.
[HD2 Accessories] gavinfabl:
Hi Mike

I went for the White one as black not in stock, hoping White will look good though.
[HD2 Accessories] ah81:
Hello !

I just recieved a Piel Frama iMagnum case for my HD2.

It ts simply perfect !

Nice leather, nice design an my phone is completely protected.

It's quite expensive but it's a very good value for the cost.

More details if you need.....;)
[HD2 Accessories] ozkaya:
can you use the proximity sensor and compass while in the case?
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Hi Gavin,

It is horrible when you ask your friends to be a test bed but I am looking forward to hearing your views on this metal case.

Again, it certainly looks quite right. Even the close fitting on the back for the camera and flash reflect exceptional quality. :)
[HD2 Accessories] :
Howdy, as beards has asked, i too would luv a 'review' when your case arrives? Cheers.
[HD2 Accessories] dongster:
Vertical vs Horizontal case

Hello all,

I am about to place my order for a leather case. But I have not used a PDA leather pouch, ever. I am undecided between a vertical vs a horizontal leather case. I wonder flipping upwards or flipping sideways is more convenient, esp answering calls or holding it for web browsing.

Horizontal

VERSUS

Vertical

(Note that only the vertical case has a belt clip 'button' sewn on to the pouch, and I don't really like it as it may feel uncomfortable in the pockets, and i will not be using it anyway. But if most of you guys advise me to use the vertical case, then I would live with it.)

I would really appreciate if you could share your experience or offer some advice as to which is more practical in daily use.

Thanks!
[HD2 Accessories] digimaz:
Sike222 and Beards. I have bought the case myself. The front of the case is made of silicon which feels slightly grippy and is good. The behind of the case is the aluminium part. All ports are functional when using this case. The inner surface of the case is also lined with the same silicon material. Some of my gripes with this case are that it does tend to make the phone heavier then it already is, but this is of course to be expected from a metal case. Another thing is that the silicon-metal interface do not tend to adhere well to each other. However, this problem is just minor and only occurs at the bottom part of the case for me.Lastly, the aluminium finish does tend to be a kinda smooth, so do hold your phone with care. Overall, i would highly recommend this case. I am a very picky person when it comes to cases. Before using this case, I would bring both the HTC supplied case as well as the PO S511 whenever I went out. Now, I just bring this capdase case along. Furthermore, delivery is relatively fast. I got my order in like less than a week. It was a pleasant suprise when the postman arrived at the door. The metal behind is also quite resistant to scratches. But then again, I don't go sliding my phone across surfaces to test its durability. So far, its holding up well. The volume buttons are covered by silicon and this, in my opinion makes it nicer to press. This makes the buttons less prone to accidental presses yet still provide a nice touch. The camera, speaker and LED on the back are protected by a slightly raised silicon. Love this feature as it means that i can place my phone on a flat surface without worrying out about denting the silver parts. It is also easy to remove and the silicon means that you don't have to worry about scratching the phone in the process of placing it in the case. In conclusion, I would highly recommend this case and give it an 8/10. For its price of S$30 including delivery, it is very good value for money. Lastly, sorry for the long-winded speech. I'm just passionate about cases. Have over 10 now. :)
[HD2 Accessories] gavinfabl:
Only 10 cases ;) I have loads more.

I also found another place, that specialises in Capdase cases. My last Capdase was for an HP Ipaq 210 and the case was awesome in quality and design.

http://shop.vinko.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?q=htc+hd2&compatible_model=249

I will give you my verdict asap.
[HD2 Accessories] ah81:
No problem for me.

All works all right !

[HD2 Accessories] lquigley:
Vertical vs horizontal

dongster: I have never used horizontal, just because I thought the flip cover would be in way when holding to use? Might be wrong? I have several flip vertical cases,with flip going both directions.The best is when it flips up, for me. I have it so it flips out of way in back, but not so you have to hold it too. Then when I set it down on desk or endtable,the flip works as stand. It holds phone upright in either vertical or horizontal position. The cases I have,you can completely remove belt holder & button,for I too put in pocket. Hope this helps,,,Quig
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Thanks for the new link Gavin.

It gave somewhat better photo's that has now thrown me into a a bit of a quandary.

I was all-set (after your recommendations) to order the Black model but having now seen the White model in clearer detail I'm quite hesitant now to go with the Black.

I suppose the simple answer would be for me to purchase both. ;)
[HD2 Accessories] peahead82:
Just got 1 of these on order....£2.79 and free screen protector...cant go wrong.....had 1 on my omnia and worked a treat! :)
[HD2 Accessories] :
Thanks for the review you convinced me to go ahead and purchase a black one.
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Yes, thanks too digimaz.

Appreciate the information but will wait first for Gavin to pass on his recommendation before I too proceed with a purchase.

That way we will then have two independent comments which will be ideal. :)
[HD2 Accessories] gavinfabl:
itz been posted. Must admit curious about this case.
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Me too....

After first hearing and seeing these metal cases followed by digimaz's review I'm now quite looking forward to finding out more about these.

I know I don't possess the same number of cases as you Gavin (now if it were watches THAT would be another thing) but I'm always looking on adding another. :)
[HD2 Accessories] dongster:
thanks quig. certainly given me something else to think about
[HD2 Accessories] richo27:
Does anyone know of any manufacturers of cases like these...

Google search "INCIPIOLAB-Series-Charcoal-Tribal-dermaSHOT" (cant post link)

They dont do them for the HD2...

Look like a nice chucky soft case.

[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
In the link you gave, the seller mention "Not compatible with Clear Armor".

I do not understand what the seller is saying here.... I could ask him (and probably will) but by asking here it gives our other readers the option of finding out what this means. :)

[HD2 Accessories] bogdatov:
For those who has Capdase case ... how thick it is comparing e.g. to regular hard rubber/silicone case ?
[HD2 Accessories] digimaz:
I would say the thickness is roughly the same but there is a difference in the weight.
[HD2 Accessories] bogdatov:
Thanks ... one more thing ... since it has silicone front, how "sticky" is it ? Comparing to silicone/hard shell ?

Honeycomb Crystal Case (Rubberdized)

Heyy.. Anyone tried http://www.amazon.com/Honeycomb-Crys...8195842&sr=8-7 yet? Seems pretty neat. Rubberdized and comes in many colours!
[HD2 Accessories] BT73:
Hey off course, like every shiny cases, but one whipe on your jeans and they are gone....
[HD2 Accessories] BT73:
"Clear Armor" is a kind of protection shield which is transparant. Like a screen protector shield which covers the whole phone.

He means that, When you use this case you do not nead that....

beceause you get a nice screen protector and a good case which protects your phone nice and slim....
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Thanks BT73 :)

At the time I was a bit busy ~ couldn't do a search and due to my location only had my phone.

I did a search later and found the info but pleased you posted it here in case anyone else wondered, so thanks again.

I sent the ebay seller an ebay query as I couldn't understand if the outer casing was made of metal or plastic (he mentioned somewhere the case is quite soft) and also if it were metal did it have a soft lining to protect the HD2 from getting scratched.

So far I have not heard a peep out of the seller.... Normally when I do not receive feedback I tend to then not purchase the item.

However, since you have one from this seller did your purchase go smoothly and how long did it take for the case to arrive.

Thanks in advance for these additional queries. :)
[HD2 Accessories] BT73:
Hi,

The Case is hard/soft plastic, which fits perfect around the phone.

Delivery take for me about 4 days.

I am so glad that i ordered this product, that i ordered another one for backup...

Best wishes

BT73
[HD2 Accessories] digimaz:
It definitely attracts dust but it seems to be harder and less sticky as compared to the cheaper kinds.
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Thanks for the feedback....

So these Capdase case's are not the same as the other Metal types we have been talking about.

Just how hard is the plastic?

Reason I ask is I can't see how the Chrome can stay on the plastic shell..... if you see what I mean.

Anyway, I have now placed an order with the seller on ebay and it has now shipped.

I was hoping for the Metal as in the Black, White & Red already discussed and seen here. :)
[HD2 Accessories] BT73:
Not like silicone cases soft, Hard but Flexibel, thin so it fits slim...
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Hopefully mine will be with me tomorrow.... I'm sad it's not metal like the other cases but you have convinced me it was worth the purchase. :)
[HD2 Accessories] cozzykim:
I like the look of the case-mate 'barely there' as well, but what strikes me is that it would be a good option if the case could be reversed and snapped on over the screen, as well as over the back.

There don't seem to be any cases that really protect the glass screen when it's in your pocket etc.

Perhaps you could let us know whether this can be done with the 'barely there'?

Thanks
[HD2 Accessories] Halle:
I really like those cases h**p://www.netimes.com/shop/resin-soft-jelly-case-for-htc-hd2-t8585-htc-leo-p-2455.html?cPath=80_731 (apperantly I'm not allowed to direct post links, how stupid that is lol).
