Xperia Play Case - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Are they any case solution other then the one I've seen online from Sony Ericsson themselves.
Maybe a soft plastic PSP Go case can be cut in the middle to fit in.
I would be will to try buy a cheep one and try.
What do people think?

Mark

Got a PSP Go case from HMV for £5
Sent from my R800i using XDA App

I hope there will be an official case soon. Im kinda scared to scratch the screen.

I had a leather poach standard with my xperia play in the package
I don't know if it's country bounded or not what the content is
but basicly I got two things extra and that's a car poach and leather poach
the one I have seems to come from germany. Instructions were in german

the standard screen protector is actually very good and scratch resistant. i've been using it for a week and a half, taking it to work and play, in and out of pockets, even ones with zips (although been extra careful here i guess!). and still not a single tiny scratch anywhere.

I’m currently looking for a silicon case for the Xperia Play, which should be the same as the ones available for the Arc.
Anyone noticed a case like that? =/

Looking for the same, Please inform me if you found any.
Best Regards.

Just bought the Sony Ericsson SMA7110 Executive Hard Case for Xperia Play off amazon (uk) was £15 when i bought, now only £11.20!! (typical lol) (instead of £25 off se site) Arrived today and it does the job fits well e.t.c. I think i may also look into Zagg Invisible Shield All over Protection for peace of mind. any comments on what the zagg shield is like steelmm?

Thanks how does this work is it a clip on case or like a pouch that you have to take the phone in and out of.?

The Sony Ericsson SMA7110 Executive Hard Case has that elasticated middle, I guess its a snug fit? only worry is it would catch/scratch rear case?
At the moment still looking for a case but think I may just leave it with out. Keep screen protector fitted and then when the rear case can always be replaced if it gets damaged.
I had a Zagg kit once and know a lot of people who swear by them but they always end up pealing on the edge and look hideous when they do
Hopefully some decent cases or replacement covers will come out soon.
*it's back up to £14 on Amazon so you didn't do to bad Mozza2k11

This is official Sony Ericsson hard pouch case for the Xperia Play. It has a magnetised closing flap at front and as Laird mentioned the flap also doubles as a pull tab to remove the play.

Yes it is a snug fit, no movement (prob cause it was made for the phone ). And as far as catching/scratching the back when removing/inserting the play. I have had mine in and out of the case about 30+ times and no scratches or any visable marks. The case is lined with a velvet lining to prevent such things. I took a pic see below.
I was looking for a clip on case but due to the the slide motion i think the best kinda clip on case would be the zagg. I mainly want the zagg for the back cover for better grip since i already have 2 screen protectors on lol.
hmmm it seems your right, probably was cheaper but cost more for postage so they got the £15ish in the end But £15 instead of £25, bargain (looks cool too ). Would recommend to anyone.

I hate the look of cases on new shiny devices.
I just stick to my motto.
"Don't ****ing drop it! "

There's some designed hard cases on Ebay if you take a look. For the UK it will be under the international sellers section.

So... Today I didn't stick to my motto :0
No damage done though, quite a sturdy little thing. Was expecting the back to fly off at the very least but all held together well.
Oh, and this was on to concrete floor from about 3 feet !

I fitted a zagg full shield for now, all looking good apart from maybe 2 bits of dust trapped on the screen
as for the case, i have seen some hard shell cases on eBay, 3 different colors
Type SHELL CASE FOR SONY ERICSSON XPERIA PLAY to find them.
I'm wanting a leather case with the screw on clip at the back, as i use them to attach phones to my motorbike for the sat nav,
but I'm still unable to find one that will fit the play, my old desire cover is of course too thin
if anyone has seen any please let me know.

I bought one of these.... it works great! Extremely happy with that purchase and for the price you can't beat it.
I'm going to buy another one to mod and superglue some grippy pads on the back for gaming.

Case Recommendations

Hi,
What case do people recommend to keep their Orbit safe? I'm stuck between the Krussell (which I have protected phones with before) , a silicon case (ebay item number 160068404562) or PDA Leather Flip Case (ebay 160068463414).
I'm tempted for the silicon as you still have easy access to the screen , but welcome any other ideas.

Before reading your question, I was not aware of the existance of a silicon case for this model. Now I've looked it up at Ebay and am also interested. A couple of months ago I bought a silicon case for my mp3 player (different brand though, ZCover) and am very pleased with it. So far however, the seller seems only to ship within the UK. I have just asked him by email if he is able to ship abroad, no answer yet.
Update: he does sell abroad. Apparently he has more than one item on Ebay, all about this case but with different shipping methods. Anyway, I just ordered a black silicon case, due to arrive later this week. I will let you know.
hi
i have the PDAIR flip case and am very pleased with it. i prefer it to a silicon type as it gives the screen more protection.
I agree that a flip case does give more protection, especially to the screen, but isn't it annoying when actually making a call? I presume you don't take the phone out of the case before calling. To me it looks rather silly. NOFI.
Have a look for the aluminium (on ebay, under artemis/p3300) case for the artemis as I have just ordered one and hope it is a good fit for the orbit?
Not massively protective but the slipcase supplied with the 8oGB ipod is a perfect fit. I'm using it just now to avoid scratches until i find a good screen protector and silicon case.

has your aluminiun case arrived, How much extra bulk does it add, as I'm thinking of getting one. I already have a black silicone case which is very good, and a very tight snug fit, but no protection for the screen. If the aluminium one is not to big, then I would sell my silicone case.
Yes my aluminium case came through the same day as my last post and it does not add much bulk to the device. The only issue I have had with it is the stylus is covered slightly so to remove it you have to open the case and slide the phone up slightly. Apart from that great case would recommend highly to all those in need of a case. My case came in a Pdair box so I assume it is made by them?
I also have the leather PDAIR flip case and my only criticism is that it extends a little to much toward the sides of the base of the screen so that I must angle the stylus a bit at the edges.

I just had a look at the aluminium cases sold on Ebay but they don't seem to have protection for the screen as well? How is that different then?
Just like you, I ordered a silicon case last week and it arrived a couple of days later. I'm pleased with it, pretty tight fit, better grip, no chance anymore of scratching the camera lens when the phone is on it's back, and all the required openings are exactly on the right spot. Indeed, the only thing left is the absence of protection for the screen, but I don't carry the phone in a pocket together with keys or coins.
The aluminium case has a plastic screen in it to protect the orbit. You have to open the front cover to use the touch screen.
All of which is not a problem as I would advise anyone with a phone of this quality to purchase a screen protector ASAP.
I didn't use my orbit till my protector came through the post.
Hi All
I spoke to the lady in the O2 shop in Swindon about cases, she said that O2 will be releasing some Orbit specific ones in the next couple of weeks.
I have my fingers crossed.

The slightly scratched, fingerprint smeared and dusty state of my just-over-a-week-old Orbit screen would probably give you a heart attack then! Screen protectors don't come cheap, £10 for little sheets of sticky plastic... selotape is under £1 a roll! I'll just use some of that!
Has anyone on their internet travels come across a vertical leather pouch/holster for the Artemis that has a belt clip?
Something like this:
http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/store/productdetail.asp?productid=21740
Just want something that can be attached to a belt and the Artemis slid into and out of - not for use in the actual case.
Must be vertical and minimal size (ie designed for the Artemis and no larger).
Krusell Vertica with Multidapt® - S-Wide
Selotape aside I'll almost certainly be going for http://www.pielframa.net/pielframa_productos.asp?id=1685 (mentioned on the other case thread) if I ever bother getting a case... can't beat something made-to-measure!
Just got myself a Piel Farama in black for my Jasjam. Looks very good and high quality but certainly requires getting a bit used to as each time you have to open the flap and fold it all the way back to get a hold of the device to take or make a call.
regards
Thanks Moleshome - that is exactly what I am looking for except my only concern (as with all "multi" cases) is that it will not fit it nicely and/or be the smallest possible case for the dimensions of the p3300. I can't think it fits all of the listed "compatible" models perfectly and I don't know if the Artemis would be in that category.
Anyone bought this particular case? Experiences?
Got my Piel Frama case today - it fits the Orbit well despite being designed for the P3300 (sharper corners).
Overall a beautifully crafted case which I will probably return as it won't let me store a credit card in the flap. My last case for the XDA Mini was a Krusell - hope they bring out an Orbit sepcific case soon....

No good for spontanous gprs internet shopping on the go then?
I dropped an email to see if I could get one for review, fingers crossed otherwise I'll have to fork over some mulah or see what my birthday holds. (I've been a games/tech journalist for a while, which is nice)
Would be interesting to get a comparison of the Krusell and Piel cases, and maybe something a bit more on the minimalistic size. I'll see what I can do, but neither are contacts I've dealt with before.

Cases

Anyone know if there are any available cases? I think I'd really need one
I was going to grab an invisible shield myself, I've had cases for phones before but I find the HTC Aria is definitely pocket size.
got one
i got a soft gel case from att today when i picked up the phone, however there were no screen protectors available at the store... pity she has such a nice screen...
I grabbed a set of generic screen protectors from the Rat Shack today. I used a hole punch to make a hole for the optical trackpad, and then carefully trimmed the sheet to size. The standard single hole punch is exactly the right size for the trackpad.

any idea of the brand on that gel case. there wasn't any at my store
amzer has a bunch of cases being released 7/13 according to their site
I didn't pickup a case from the AT&T for the outrages price they want for it. In fact, I don't think this phone needs a case since the back is virtually indestructible. However, I need a screen cover fast.
The gel case is decent, but I'm not sure it need it since the only part of the phone it covers is the soft touch part. The AT&T stores got screen protectors, but the package doesn't say Aria on it. It says HTC (model# I can't remember). The only carried protectors for the Fuze, Tilt 2 and the Pure so the other HTC one should be it. It's a 3 pack for $9.99.
The AT&T store I went to had cases and protectors. Case was expensive and didn't look necessary, the back cover feels very solid.
The Screen protectors are labeled as "Compatible with HTC A6366," product code 888063373688
i like the gel type cases(as long as they aren't too thick) for some shock absorption
case and screen protection
ok so it was a branded att case, no specific maker of the case, i did some research and it seems the Aria is basically a droided HD mini with a trackpad, so the measurements are the same as the mini, Zagg makes a full kit with screen and back protection, use a hole punch for the track pad and all is well, i will be getting my kit within a week or so i will keep you guys updated...

I almost forgot it's pretty much the same casing as the HD MINI! I just ordered a nice cheapie case on ebay! lol
I'd post the link, but I'm not allowed to yet as a new user =P
wish HTC or other company make some nice case for it.
ok so i have to retract part of my previous statement, the case is actually made by htc, i didn't notice the imprint at the bottom, so HTC does make a case for it, probably the same as the mini's.

I did exactly the same thing 3 days ago.
To make it easier i placed the screen protector on the phone so it overhung the entire thing, then flipped it over and trimmed the excess off with a razor blade. Finished it off by cutting out the protector that was covering the speaker.
PDAir has some decent looking cases for the HD Mini that I think would work GREAT for the Aria:
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000908
I'm especially a fan of THIS one:

Of course, if you're not a cheap bastard like me, and prefer rich, European styling, THESE are some incredibly sweet cases:

EDIT: Oh. I also found this cheapie, which strikes me as somewhat similar to the PDAir case I highlighted above:
http://www.netimes.com/shop/flip-case-with-belt-clip-for-htc-hd-mini-htc-photon-p-2672.html
I think this is the case I'll probably be getting, but my IDEAL case would be a rubberized/silicone/plastic, form-fitting shell, with a detachable belt clip on the back. I know the shell cases are a dime-a-dozen, but I have yet to find one with a belt clip. Anyone know of any?

Thanks for the info on that, but my back cover (the top left corner) is loose for some reason, so I'm afraid it'll come off soon. I also realized that the back is the antenna for the phone (two pins in the case that connect to the phone, and no signal when back is off). So, I think I'll get a screen protector and a cheap gel case. Thanks all.
Hi there! This is a fun thread. Don't have to think TOO hard!
If anyone has actually bought and is delighted with a case please let me know!
I am really looking for a black rubberized (non-skip) case that goes all the way around the back, up the sides.
I wish there was like silicon case, but actually out of thicker, less flexy rubber.
Kit is up on Zagg's site.
Just ordered one. May opt for a gel case for the back end instead of the full kit...when they're available. All I'm seeing are "Available 7/27" or "Ships in 1-3 months" or something every time I try to order an actual case. I guess I'm stuck waiting?
according to the amzer site http://www.amzer.com/HTC/HTC-Aria-accessories.htm the jelly silicone cases are available now. i wonder if they show the screws like the argyle ones do.

Cases update

So has anyone bought a silicon like case yet. I have been hoping someone would have put up a review for a case by now. So if you have bought a case for the aria where did u get it? And how good is it? Brand-name? Price? Etc.
Thanks in advance!
Sent from my HTC Aria
Got a case from at&t store its great in quality. already droped a few times with no issues. I think its the htc brand one. It cost like 20 bucks but its tougher and firmer than most silicon style cases ive seen. Also not as sticky as most so it slides in your pocket easier. Although its still sticky when its 92 degrees out like it was today.

The Amzer silicone one provides good protection but is bulky and does not fit snuggly on the phone. I could imagine the phone slipping out of the case to indicate how loosely it fits.
When I picked mine up from the AT&T store, they had a pretty nice soft shell case for $25. It was nice looking, fit the phone well (I almost couldn't get the thing off), and looked like it would provide decent protection. I skipped on buying it, however, since the price seemed a bit steep.
i just went to the ATT store today and they had a glossy black (maybe gunmetal) hard case for the aria, it was 25 bucks and i didnt feel like spending that much when i could get the same online for cheaper, but it did look nice.
didnt get a chance to put it on the phone though.
also, it was in a package that said soft case.
I love how this phone feels like it already has a case on it! I haven't dropped the phone (yet, thankfully) but If i did i would be too distraught. I just want to be able to buy a replacement back cover (OEM) for less than $30.

It's a nice hard-ish version of your typical silicone case. It's actually really good and sturdy and my only gripe is that it's a pain to unlock it.. so I use No Lock, which allows you to unlock the phone with any button...the optical touchpad has become my new best friend

The Amzer silicon case purchased actually says HD Mini on its packaging. It is quite a loose-fitting case. The one from AT&T, which is more of a plastic smoke translucent case, fits very snuggly with the only downside that it's $25. It says HTC on its back and the silver HTC logo of the phone itself shows through nicely.

I just bought my wife a case from pdair for the hd mini and it fits great. The have a number of good colors and its snug as a bug.
It's a very durable silicon skin. Comparable to the one from at&t but its actually easier to push the buttons with the pdair case. So its confirmed for me: hd mini cases work great for th aria.

Hum.. I'm thinking about picking one up. I wish Otterbox had a case for the Aria. I'm prone to dropping my phone, so I want something that will protect it from at least minor falls.

Plastic case, pouch, screen protector?

My box of Xperia Play didn't include a pouch so I must buy something to protect the phone.
I saw a cool plastic case: http://www.accessorygeeks.com/oem-t...-plastic-silicone-case-ag-xper-py-bk-blk.html and I thought it's good for me, but after a while I realised it turns the phone into a brick, something I don't really want to.
So then another option is to get a pouch, searched and found a few, but pretty expensive ($35 - $60). I just want something good, good looking and for a price of maximum $15.
Optional: An invisible screen protector which theoretical protects the screen for scratches.
I need some help here. What should I buy?
I don't know if you know this but, the Xperia Play comes with a preinstalled invisible screen protector. So you're half covered already.
I can't recommend you a case/pouch since I don't have one but I don't even want to know how bulky it'd be with one when it's on my pocket.
I got the official sony ericsson executive hardcase and i love it - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-Ericsson-SMA7110-Executive-Xperia/dp/B004S5CP0Q
I don't really like the snap on case because I hate adding bulk to an already bulky phone and also I have the DK300 dock and it would require me to constantly take off the other cases.
I also bought the official pouch that came with the European models from here - http://www.netimes.com/shop/sony-ericsson-xperia-play-pouch-ca850-p-3255.html?cPath=70_808

Off-topic but how trustworthy is that site? I see they have a lot of accessories and ship worldwide, so far I've only used DealExtreme but they don't have many phone-specific stuff (except for the iphone).
Fast and efficient and supply tracked shipping.
I was amazed they had tracked shipping with signature approval for something that was just an envelope.
foofbag
Check this out: (google foofshop)
I bought my macbook sleeve/pouch from there a few years ago and it was awesome for keeping scratches off etc. Then When I got my play I measured up the iphone sizes for their iphone cases and on a whim just bought one to see if my would fit in it. was a bit tight at first but after a while it now fits as snug-as-a-bug-in-a-rug! and it looks cool aswell, hardly adds any bulk and even if it does at least when I pull it out I don't look like I have a brick for a phone but just an awsome pouch/sleeve thing and i pop my phone out of. defo recomend.
So to make sure you guys are aware, if you're up for it, buy the iphone sized one, thats the one I got. They are designed to fit iphones but plays fit fine ;oP lol. They're Australian based but post all around the world, i got mine within a week in the UK.

I also bought the official pouch that came with the European models from here - http://www.netimes.com/shop/sony-ericsson-xperia-play-pouch-ca850-p-3255.html?cPath=70_808

I got the second one with my phone. I generally hate phone cases but this is nice since it's not making a brick out of phone and it's not taking away it's style. On the left is a cut-out so the headphones plug isn't covered, and it makes easier to take out the phone.
Pouch on first link is a bit ugly.
bought a cheapy gel case of Amazon and noticed there is not openings for the stereo speakers , I just looked at the case in post 1 and it has not speaker openings as well
This item, on ebay, has the speaker ports open, and is slimmer, and better than the Gel one I tried:
Search for that item number: 190527208284
I've got one of these, and it's well worth a few quid more.
Your case looks like the one i was going to order from Amazon for £2.99 , but is only £1.99
Thanks
John.

lol..It's a nice case, fits well, is slimmer than the crap one I had(prepaymania £2 gel case, and another from local phone shop, both identical to be honest), and I had given up on cases for it, as well, I thought most were the same(people even have issues with otterbox, etc..)
It's semi transparent, and it allows the sliding motion well, better than the other two I tried, i felt they were prising the phone apart, but this one isn't an issue.
well worth £1.99, IMO.
Cool stuff

They must have put the price up due to demand because even the cheapest cover of those, the purple, is £2.28 inc postage. Not exactly a king's ransom I admit.
There's a ton of these generic cases out there on Amazon and eBay, I'll get one simply because there isn't much else around unless you want the the flip cover shell or some sort of pouch. Hopefully, since the phone is already selling well globally and demand is high, better cases will come along in the New Year.
I am hoping for a Chinese knockoff flipshell (ideally also adding credit card pouches on the cover). I wont pay 30EUR for the original one (which is not actually shipping, either)
A Question
Well i wonder will these work with the flip cases or not?
I cant test it cuz moto g is not available in my country yet
I have an s-line tpu case in blue for my Moto G. I mainly got it to prevent the screen from smashing if i dropped it face down accidentally. My main concern is that it causes the phone to get warm (i think). Do you think this could happen or is it just my imagination?
I bought this from baas...but screen protector is not good...doesnt stick to the edges... gel case was ok....

Downloading 400MB of map data for OSMAND via wifi did cause mine to get a little warm. That was with no case, but I don't think it's anything to worry about. The TPU is only a millimetre or so thick across the back.
I bought this one from Ebay, and it's a nice snug fit. No screen protectors or stylus, but I don't consider them of any value anyway!
