I've pre-ordered a HTC Desire and would like to find a case for it before bringing it with me (just to be on the safe side).
It seems most case manufacturers out there have products for the Google Nexus One but nothing for the HTC Desire...
I'm searching something like one of those: CaseMate Gelli, Boxwave Slim Rubberized Shell Case, Seidio Innocase II, Otterbox Commuter, ...
Does anyone know if such a case for the Desire exists?
they have the same body (more or less) .. the nexus one and the Desire that is ... the desire is slightly taller though

The Desire has a chin, although very slight. I doubt a nexus one case would work.
I've been using an iPhone case by DLO for my Touch TD which I got from my local O2 shop. By my reckoning it will work for the Desire too.
There is a entry for the HTC Desire at Case Mates feedback site:
feedback.case-mate.com
I didn't know they had a suggestion page, I filled-in an entry for a Gelli.

Simple
I dont like any "hard" case ... I prefer naked, but the above case would add some protection while on my pocket, and I still be able to play it naked.
I wish htc would supply a case with the desire like they did with the hd2 and nexus one.. I love my hd2's case.

As far as I know all Android phones come with a "pouch case". Even the Nexus One. Don't see any reason why this one would be different.
Hope they do supply one.
Personally I don't like pouch cases. They are good at protecting the phone while it is in it but they are worth nothing while you are using the phone because of course it is not in the pouch at that time...
When it is being used, you dont need more protection, do you?
Probably true for scratch protection, but I still cant believe my finger will scratch it.
My experience with my WM device (HTC Kaiser):
I dont use pouch.
I only put plastic screen protector.
And I always put the phone inside my jeans pocket.
Result:
- No scratch on the screen / LCD (I am using one of the best plastic screen protector, martinshield.com)
- A lot of dust!!!! But this is expected because I put in the jeans pocket.
- The camera glass at the back has quite some scratch which make the photo quality horrible.
This is the biggest regret, to buy the back cover will cost me around 30 euro
Lesson learned, so I am thinking to really sealed the phone before putting in my jeans pocket. Thats why I bought this case:
http://www.fommy.co.uk/view-full-page.asp?divid=Google&cat=Cases&skuno=82280
It is a nice soft leather small bag/pouch which completely seals the phone.
I dont know the build quality or else because I dont have the phone yet nor the case ... not yet

This is true but my hd2 has not have a mark on it. I had a bodyguardz full protector on my iphone because the back is so easily scratched.. my phone never goes in my pocket and if not on a desk or in its dock it lives in the htc pouch. If im goin out drinking or somewhere where i no it involves dirt etc etc i take out an old phone.

Hi thanks for the suggestion, I think I prefer the samsonite one though, just looks nicer.
I own an HTC S740 currently and am about to upgrade to a Desire.
The S740 came with a neoprene pouch/sleeve to put the phone in whilst in your pocket etc. It did make a massive difference to the amount of scratches and general abuse the phone got. But, after 18months the phone still has huge chunks missing from the corners and a cracked screen. Both were caused as i pulled the phone and pouch from out of my pocket whilst it was upside down. As they cleared my pocket the phone slid from the pouch and descended unprotected to the floor whereupon it promptly received said damage.
I think I will be going with a permanent cover for the Desire as I am very concerned about damaging the screen with it being touch screen.

more to come after i smoke it over...
the case came in a plane jane white box. inside is the invoice and then the case was wrapped in bubble wrap. nothing fancy but no one needs fancy packaging anyway.
the case was bigger than i thought however the phone fits in the case just nicely.
included is an instruction card, the "squeegee card", screen protector, and cleaning cloth.
i am NOT a fan of the kickstand. its plastic and it can break off if you hyper extend it.it "snaps" into place in its "docked" position. when you pull the kickstand out, there is no positive "click" or lock mechanism to let you know its out.
the silicon shell feels like the sprint silicon case. it has a rubber cover over the hdmi and usb ports. as for the camera, leds, speaker in back, there is a plastic piece covering those up. so keep this clean of debris when you want to snap a photo.
overall the case is a winner for me. it is indeed rugged and solid feeling.
Get that beast on your phone. Waiting on pics patiently, for now.

its thick! i just dropped it thigh! high (as opposed to waist level--too scared) face first and it still works normally thus far. the holster is nice and its BIG! lol. the case can fit in the holster with or without the silicon jacket. the phone sits in the thing nicely..reminds me of a panasonic toughbook.
if there is a specific photo you want to see, let me know and ill snap one. the video of the case at the website pretty much shows the case in real life.
i can tell you the red accent style case will be dynamite!
there is a separate screen protector you can apply yourself AND the top part of the case that snaps onto the..well.. top has a built in screen protector, which is absolutely nice IMO...

ROCK HTC One X Edge nakedshell Naked Ultra-thin so i orderd one from here Obostore.com in red, i think a white phone with wine-red case could look pretty good maybe with a matching wallpaper
and i found some basic black tpu cases on ebay here generic black tpu case for htc one x
@Hampa_D after trying covers i think the better one to get is the rubber like(TPU) im using like it on my desire and its amazing not a single scratch from for how many times it slipped
but used the hard shell it made 3 scratches next to volume keys
so since im getting the white ill go for the rubber one its more safe i guess
at the end no one know what **** will happen
I'm going to get a leather slip case. If I have a piece of expensive kit I want to be able to see it when I'm playing. It does mean being more careful but I am so they work for me.

Wondering if the SGP Crumena Nexus case will fit HTC One X - http://www.amazon.co.uk/SGP-Samsung-Galaxy-Leather-Crumena/dp/B0071QPIV2
Very sexy case. Actually had one in my possession in preparation for getting my Nexus a month or so back, but I cancelled getting a Nexus to wait on the One X/Galaxy S3, and sent case back.
According to this YT comparison video, the One X and Nexus are practically the same size http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SnmSx-7KZA
Personally, I would like Otterbox to make the case. Sent them an e-mail and it seemed that they don't have the plans to make it... How disappointing for me, that's if I get the One X...
Otterbox sucks, they make cases for construction workers, so damn bulky :/
If we end up getting the white version we'll be very screwed on the cases front, most of the cases are just black, the white cases are just from unknown brands, cheap cases, etc
The cases i like the most so far are:
Seidio Surface
http://www.seidioonline.com/htc-vivid-surface-case-black-p/csr3hthld-bk.htm
Case mate tough case, this a two piece case, so bulk is most certain, however im thinking of just using the the first part, the silicone one

Not sure if you noticed but the phone has a plastic shell and plastic is an insulator, not a conductor. When the phone feels warm on the outside, I can assure you, it is much warmer on the inside.

My aluminum bumper came in today... was shipped out on the 4th, and arrived on the 10th(wasn't expecting it to come till next week)
Thoughts:
If you like aluminum bumpers, then definitely get this. The quality is very good. There were a couple things I was worried about in regards to the bumper:
GOOD:
1. Since the phone is encased, I was worried that the fit may not be right. Either too snug or too loose. Phone fit's just right!
2. being a metal bumper I was worried about the type of lining the case would have. I own an iphone 4s as well and have metal bumpers for them, so lining is important. The lining on this is felt so it does not scratch the phone at all!
3. being a bumper, it will add a little bit of depth to your one x, not by a lot though, very minimal.
4. the buttons are very responsive and don't seem out of place. you have access to all your ports.
BAD:
1. if your looking for a bumper that will protect the camera, DO NOT get this bumper, the camera lens sticks out(see pic)
2. if you have headphones that are larger than regular size ("L" shaped) they will not work
3. definitely definitely DEFINITELY need to have a screen protector. I know it's gorilla glass, but when you slide the top portion of the bumper IT MAY scratch the screen. Also if your going to put this in your pocket, over time the bare metal may scratch the beautiful screen.
That's it, if you love aluminum bumpers, then you will like it....

Seriously, you would confess that if you sent it back!?? It's not like you've broken the terms and conditions such as when you flash the ROM.
It's a bumper, not a case so it won't stop the air circulating around the phone to cool it, and in contrast will act a bit like a radiator, conducting the heat away from the device onto a bigger surface area and increasing the cooling capability.
I like the idea, but the small added protection offered by a bumper compared to the loss of slick, thin, svelty feel phone without a thick bumper is not worth it for me.
Good find from digimaz though... "ALUMINIUM Metal Bumper Case for HTC One X" couldn't be more like it says on the tin!

Ahh, had a feeling the 'aluminium' claim would turn out to be cheaper plastic!
Just wondering. After using my iphone 4 for about a year with an iphone bumper I eventually took it off. Along with the screen protector. When I bought the one X I decided not to purchase a case. Although the phone can feel slippery at times, I just make sure to pinch both sides of the phone. (thumb on the screen, middle finger on the back of the phone) when reaching into my pocket to pull it out. Anyone else not using a case that might of regretted it?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
I have a case but I only use it when I go mountain biking. I think cases are FUGLY, particularly on the sexy One X. As for screen protectors, if you can apply it flawlessly its okay. However, its next to impossible to apply it flawlessly, so I never use them either.
Got my one x for three weeks now, no scratches and such. The reason could be that im still using my DHD a lot. thinking bout to get full body screenprotector.
Mostly I don't bother with a case, but now and then I use the htc v701 case
you can see this thread i made = http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1681427
TBH, if I worked in an office or a clean indoors enviroment then I probably wouldnt use a case, the handset would just slip into a shirt/trouser (pants for the americans here) pocket.
I work outside a lot though, often have dirty hands and sites I work on have hardcore all around… drop my phone on that, then its screwed.
Dont use a SP though, hate them, spoils the lovely feel of the glass.
To be honest though, I dont tend to have phones for more than 6 months, so like to keep them as nice as possible if I decide to sell them on ebay.

Hi
I've been using my phone without case or protection... But since I accidentally dropped it and the back got some scratches, I feel like there should be a case back there, you know, just in case
Also screen protector is not necessary since it has Gorilla Glass, but I saw a topic here about people getting scratches on the screen, so if you're comfortable with them, that wouldn't hurt either

I did too until my last phone caught an STD. (Sudden Tarmac Destruction)
Joking aside, I found that the HOX was a lot harder to operate one handed in comparison to my Sensation and came close to dropping it a few times.
For the last couple of days I've been using this and I'm finding the phone a lot more secure in my hand and easier to operate one-handed. It adds very little bulk to the phone and I'm delighted with it.
I just need to find a car mount now that will fit with the cover on as it's a bit fiddly to remove the cover.

I have ordered an HTC One X, just waiting for it to get in stock. I don't think I'll be using it with a case. I never did with my O2x. I handle my phones with care. Partly due my appreciation of having the privilege to afford such devices, but also because it ups the re-sale value. I'll probably get a screen protector though.
The phone looks so damn good without the case but as it's a wee bit too large to fit in pockets when you're sitting down I decided to put a case on it. Tried two cases, metal skin and aprolink, settled with this one:

Screen protectors, I simply hate the cheap ones you get off ebay and the like, you always get bubbles, so I bought a good one and for the first time I was able to find a screen protector that's bubble free:

Dang, that was a nice case. Think I might order the white and red one. Thanks for sharing Ignition!

It looks sh!t hot on as well. I was worried it made me look too metrosexual however all my mates think it's cool... (phew)...
No case, but I'm using a pouch similar to @tsukurimashou. Reminds me of my Nexus One's pouch. I only use it on the weekends/traveling though as when I'm in the office it just stays on the desk or in my pocket.
No case. The design of the phone was a major factor in my decision to buy it...not going to cover it up with a case. This is the first time I've gone without a case on my phones.

I have been using cases and screen protectors on my phones all my life. This time I decided that enough is enough, I'm going to use this brand new phone naked. I already dropped it and it has like 3-4 dents at 2 of the corners. I was sad for a while but this is bound to happen anyways. I considered using only a screen protector without a case, but that would make me a half-way crook and I'm too hard for that.
So, any cold-blooded thugs out there using their HTC 10 naked like me? We need to unite.
Running it naked, haven't put a case on any of my phones for past 3 years. Why buy a marvel of engineering (smartphones in general) and then cover it with a case. No scratches or anything so far, but they add character to the device.

I'm currently using mine naked while I wait for my case to show up sometime next week. I might end up deciding to just forget the case and enjoy the phone for how it is supposed to be. Having Uh Oh protection definitely offers some peace of mind, though.

great now that I opened my mouth ill probably drop my 10 in the toilet or something
If you go through devices like me (one every other month or so) a case is important to protect the device for resale. But it is certainly nice to sport around naked once in a while.

I go through devices like you and I don't use a case. Hell this is XDA, you are not unique here going through devices.

The Uh Oh protection is one of the reasons that motivated me to go naked. Does anyone know if HTC will replace phones that have scratched up screens without cracks? Or do I have to hit it with a hammer before calling them for a replacement later on if necessary.
Never use a case or screen protectors, can't stand them.
I ordered a Ice View case along with the phone. I got the phone today but the case wasn't in the box (they said it is still a pre-order item). I guess I'm running naked for a while anyway.
skinned mine with dbrand skins...
i mean yet to receive the shipment though was supposed to be dispatched on 4th may no news yet.. but this is how its going to be....

Completely naked. Why cover a beautiful smartphone?
I never use a cover on my phones.
Ohai!
The ice view case looks great and all, but it adds extra efforts in using the phone. So say in general, cases ruin the beauty of the phone altogether, regardless of what case you get.
Apart from the screen having a potential of breaking, the rest of the device is meant to last. Live life on the edge (until the phone breaks, then you can cry)
I use a slim cover, with kids my M8 has taken more than a dozen falls... still well rounded.
My 10 is already scratched the screen brushed against something edgy and I cant figure what it was.
I never used to use cases, but I have a tendancy to drop things thhese days so I do use one, but I'd rather not have to! Going to get a tight fitting skin like above I think as have rugged case that you can't see the phone through, so it looks like my old phone!
Same here, dot view cases were fun but now I a want to enjoy the new design of the 10, perhaps I will put a tempered glass but not a cover, I am very careful with my phones but you never know when someone put his stuff on your phone when it's on a table, I got a hairline scratch on my M9's screen last year because someone put his earphones on it (yes I know screen coating by HTC is not so good)
This phone is so beautiful that are huge case would just ruin the design but also you need to opt for some protection. Therefore I have purchase the Spigen thin fit.

I haven't received mine yet but I've never used a case for any phone, I've only cracked 1 screen though and that is my current phone Nokia 1520, but it cracked when I was holding it in my mouth not from dropping it D:
Around the house i do, when i leave it's covered by a flip case.

Lol cases are for galaxy phones to cover up the ugliness
