Cheap good xoom case UK - Xoom General

Well I don't normally do this, but I ordered a case from eBay and within 2 days it arrived
The cost of this leather case including postage was £12.98 (free postage)
It's got quite a good solid feel to it and fit's my xoom very well, I half expected it to be rubbish for the money but it's not.
I would highly recommend this to any xoom owner. It's the only one I found that you have access to all ports and also allows the indicator light to show through when I get an email.
Mines the 3G version but I dont think that makes a difference. Also because the flap has a crease in it, this allows it to stand up for watching a film BUT if you lay it down the other way you use it to type on. Using it this way puts the xoom upside down sadly but it then allows you to charge it from the top
O.. and did I mention you also get a FREE screen protector with it!! I haven't fitted mine yet however.. I hate doing them because I always mess up and end up with lots of bubbles and fluff.. lol
Apol's if this is breaking any rules, but I'm that impressed with it I thought I would pass this on.

Happy xoom'in

It is not the only one which provides access to all sensors and buttons, and it doesn't provide access to charger port while being closed - as all other currently known cases.
Btw, you posted that in the wrong forum...

this is the one i got and its great. Had no problems with the ports, the holes some to be in the perfect position.

only "down side" (not sure if it is even that bed to be called that), is that the "hinge" of the case is at the bottom. So when charging the case cannt be closed all the way, btu i just fold it back(so the screen is not covered) when chargin and put in a drawer.
apart from what its a very good case for under £15.

that looks like its the same case. I think for the money its a bargain.
Had my xoom for few days now and loving it. Starting to use it more and more now... looking forward to the uk 3.1 update. From what I've been reading it might be out on the 27th may...
Fingers crossed

I bought the tuff-luv pull-tab case from eBay for about £14. Very nice.

Hi guys, I bought this one.
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/view...=1&nav=WON&nid=32518807697&trxId=583007023013
Only £4.99 with free delivery
The case is a nice tight fit and adds no bulk, all port holes are a perfect match.
Best device case I've bought (cheapest too)
Screen protector that came with it was one of the cheaper ones that leave smear marks etc but I decided not to use it, I bought the item just for the case anyway.
I can't rate it highly enough guys.

Need a nice leather pouch case - 8525 ?

Is it safe to assume that an 8525 case will fit the Tilt the same ?
I'm looking for a pouch-type case.
Thanks,
DLD
I have alot of experience with Gizmoskin.com i have had 4 of their cases for different phones.
I got the treo 750 case, which is within a mm on each side.
its awesome. I love their cases, secure, slim and ratcheting clip - the leather is TOP quality.
there is a little play at at the top of the case as far as fit, but it doesn't bother me and there is no worry of the phone falling out or anything, but it has some freedom to shift in the case.
FYI, the standard shipping is REALLY slow - to florida it can take like a good 2 weeks, cause they ship from canada. On the other hand, with overnight, ordered on thurs, shipped friday, at my house monday before 9 am. Pricey, but, it was there.
Good Luck!
fyi, with the case set horizontally, the phone feels like it weighs nothing. I wear alot of gym/ basketball shorts that have no strong waist support and it does not pull it out at all. i'm super happy.

Thread moved to Kaiser accessories.
nobody knows if the 8525 cases fit the kaiser properly ?
dld
It fits, but the TYTN2 is smaller. I use a SP6 Pouch Case and its fine.
I'm using a leather pouch case with a strong, rotating, belt clip I got at Best Buy that is intended for the Treo 650. Since the 650 is no longer available the case was reduced from $29.99 to $8.99 and it's a perfect fit.
yes, it fits. I'm using my TyTN case with my Kaiser (Tilt). the Kaiser is a bit narrower so not as tight a fit but it works.
I am also looking for a horizontal case with a belt clip for the Kaiser. Most of what I have seen so far are generics that fit 'most devices'.
Thinking about Vaja ...

Cheap Good Leather Cases

Good News: This case was made for the ZUNE, but it is amazingly able to fit the Kaiser perfectly and still have access to soft keys with added screen protection via the transparent plastic front.
Bad News: These cases have been discontinued and i've not been able to find any of these online or in any other stores.
This case is HARD. I've gotten leather cases in the past and they were soft but this one is far more protective/user friendly than any others, I might be able to get my hands on a couple more if they are not sold out locally within the next couple of days, If any one is interested post. (I paid $10 for mine)

Looks pretty nice, but does it "muffle" the microphone? I wanted a nice leather case, but finding one to fit exactly here in the states was difficult. The one ATT sells looks like it was made for a Treo or something.
I was in my TMO place to pick up an HTC car charger and they had a really nice black leather vertical case combo wiith the car charger for 30 bucks. (This is a Wing starter kit).
I prefer horizontal cases, but since the charger alone was 25 bucks, for 5 more I gave it a whirl. Happy with it, but it doesn't offer the same level of protection as the cloth HTC case that came with my TyTN2.
Moving to Kaiser Accessories.
Will leave a redirect here for a couple of days.

The mic is covered by the leather but I haven't noticed much of a difference. This is a swivel back so it can be positioned as either vertical or horizontal.
i have the same exact problem! i wanted a case that had cover for the front screen so i can use the phone in answering or talking with and take the phone out quickly for other functions... but i dont see hardly any cases with the cheapo plastic protection that i had easily found for my previous 8525 :/
ive been using this case for a week now and Ive found it extremly easy to still use the touchscreen while its in the case, also the snap top that keeps the phone in the case is easy to undo and take the phone out when needed, there are only about 4 left locally so let me know if your interested ASAP!

and a screen protector from this ebay seller:http://stores.ebay.ca/SkyTechStore
Great quality products, the silicone skin reminds me of the one I purchased from Blackberry when I had my BOLD, shipping was fast and very good value for the $$$. The skin doesn't add any bulkiness on the phone.
Both accessories were manufactured by LUXMO- Luxury Mobile
Would recommend.
Igot the same skin....I paid 5.99 for it and 2 bucks for shiping. I was pleasantly surprised when i saw it was the exact same one as the ones for sale on Treo Central....right down to the little x logo on the back bottom corner.
They want 14.99 for it there.......
How long have you had yours?
I got mine off eBay about 1 month ago. After a couple weeks it had gotten some pretty bad scratches in it. I just switched to Invisable Sheild but am even less happy with that
*sigh*
I've had it a week or so.....what do you mean scratches on the phone itself inside from the case rubbing or scratches in the rubber/silicone case?
I thought about the fact that dirt and grit can get in and under the rubber pretty easy and am thinking of a different type of case now.....
Sorry I wasn't clear. I was meaning the screen protector has several scratches. I have never had a screen protector scratch to easy.
I do not have a screen protector on the Pro yet....Im trying to use the navigation buttons as much as possible and im trying to get away from using the stylus.
One thing I do with my PDA's that i learned from a friend is to take the tip of the stylus and rub it against your cheek. Since its such a sensitive spot you'll feel any sharp edge or points that could cause damage.
My treo's in the past were no problems but this tip seems a bit cheaper and seemed to have a mold edge on it that i lighting sanded down.
They all might not be like mine but yours could have a bit of a rough edge.....

Either you got a deal or a special sale -- I saw that $5.99 price, too. It had gone up to $11.50 by the next week. But still cheaper than TreoCentral.
Some pics to see how it looks!!!

Dot view cover. Is it worth it and where to get it from?

I am curious if anyone has the Dot View cover for M9+ and how do you like it? I am in the US and the only source I can find is eBay and there are several different makes. Do you need an OEM one to get all the functions?
Thanks.
I love the HTC dot view 2 but i am so disappointed because I brought the genuine for m9 and i had it for 3-4weeks then its decided to broke by itself. I had to return it and get new one. And its broken again after 3 weeks. I dont want to get it again for my m9+.
Fake Ebay Dot view cover still works for all the functions.
i've ordered one from ebay, it's delivery is pending in the coming week(s), but now i will surely break, after reading it's so fragile Anyway, it was not too expensive, so if one breaks, i'll stick with my leather poach instead...
I bought mine from http://www.taobao.com the Chinese ebay
It costed me US$10 to buy two HTC M9+ dot view covers and two screen protectors and had them shipped to Hong Kong.
Unfortunately the website is only in Chinese. You may have to use Google Translate to translate it into English.
Better use WangXin (a messenger app) to chat with the seller and make sure he / she ships it overseas to Europe / US. It is ridiculously cheap. I have been using it for 3 months already. No problem so far!

I got one from Hong Kong ebay finally, it's not original HTC, but with HTC logos on it, it was called 'genuine' on the ebay, but clearly it's a copy of the original. I'm not yet sure how long it will last but so far it works like expected, tho it made the phone a two hand experience, as the cover on this one is always going back if i don't keep it open.
I still carry my leather belt poach for rougher rides like with my bike, so to keep it extra safe, but the flip cover seems to give just enough protection for everyday stuff. Tho' i wouldn't drop it, i think it still wouldn't help that
Now I've used the genuine fake from Hong Kong and it's working well, seems it will last a few months.
To have a no flip cover too, I've ordered a nillkin 0.6mm transparent matte. It's got a firm grip on the sides with rough surface where you hold it on the side. It's letting the look of the phone show well. Plugs the USB and Jack against dust. It was a few dollars on eBay.

Torras slim cases & wireless charging pad

Hi All-
I want to share my thoughts on Torras clear cases and wireless charging pad. I found the company while looking for a case for my iPhone. I've use their thin hard plastic case and silicone cases which are great. I'd like to make a request from them to make these type cases for our Note's haha... Anyway I received 3 soft tpu cases for review which I'm trying for first time. We have one all clear it's soft tpu similar to the Ringke air I've use previously. It keeps the phone slim while showing off colors.. My favorite is the blue trim case which matches great with blue phone. They also sent me a black trim which I've seen with the white and aura colors nice combo.. All cutouts are aligned perfectly and easy access to S pen. Also the camera cutout gives it nice protection. My only gripe with clear cases is fingerprints. It's better than phone naked but I find myself wiping them on many occassions. I have not found a clear case to cure my OCD with keeping it fingerprint free haha..... Screen lip is slim I would prefer a little higher while placing phone screen face down but on par with other slim cases. I've not dropped my phone but I think these are good for keeping scratches away and will survive a minor drop ..I will report back once I've used them for a longer period. So far good I've been using 3 weeks switching between them, Lastly the wireless charging pad. It has fast wireless 15W with QC 3.0 adapter and it gets the job done nicely. No issues with phone heating up. I like the bottom has a grippy ring so on my table it doesn't slide. It's well made and easy drop and charge. I also like the brick included with a solid overall package . Anyway you can check specs yourself. Thanks for your time if you've made it this far along my post. [emoji16]
