Rugged case to last longer than moto g - Moto G Accessories

Been reading around here and reviews everywhere but cant really trust most of them so I created this thread
I'm basically looking for tough/rugged case and at the moment I can only find 2 contenders
Ballistic https://www.goballisticcase.com/shop/motorola/moto-g/tough-jacket-maxx/
or
Otterbox http://www.otterbox.com/Defender-Se...g_color=Y7&start=1&cgid=motorola-moto-g-cases
looking for feedback from current owners, suggestion/feedback are welcome
thanks,
aben

I got the trident case, perfect fit, buttons work as good as without case, rock solid case: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Trident-Ser...401050103&sr=8-2&keywords=moto+g+trident+case
I did add tempered glass to the mix though, but hey £30 on protection is cheaper than paying £100 for a new 8Gb Moto G right.
Edit: Out of the two you have listed I would say protection wise, the ballistic is a better choice.

I also have a trident aegis case installed in my mega 5.8 and im happy with it.
Looking at this 2 cos this came with holster which I need moto g can hung on my waist which I cant do with my mega due to its size but I will still keep it as secondary phone
Anyone can give feedback with how tough the holster of these?

Neither of those two.
I doubted if I would take the Trident, but eventually took the black and white Dual Pro Hybrid Case from Incipio............saved the phone a few times now......................:good:

I've got the Otterbox Commuter for mine, it's pretty solid and fits the phone almost perfect the only nag is the little flap for the micro USB port doesnt quite close entirely.

Cases for the Ozone - Thoughts?

I've found a number of Sites selling cases for the Ozone (I assume they'd work on the other devices based on the Maple/Willow)

Does anyone have any experience with any of these vendors? Know the source? Or have any thoughts on the items?
Thanks.
IMHO i wouldnt buy a case just yet, unless its from ur service provider or from HTC itself.
in alot of cases and reports ive read they are using the Blackberry Curve cases with minimal NOTICEABLE modifications to make them Snap compatible, and well thats no bueno!
Talkie Tech Cases
I just got 2 cases from Talkie Tech and I can say they're made for the HTC Ozone. Definitely *not* a mod of another phone.
Price was $9.95(US) plus flat rate shipping ($4.95 I believe) and I got them in 2 days.
Very satisfied, they're a great product.

I just bought this one on Ebay-
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400070510706&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:US:1123
I had a hard plastic case for about 2 weeks, took it off to pull battery and noticed pits from rocks/dirt that got under the case... Soft Skins = Win.
Had a silicone case for 3 weeks, easy to clean, no dirt, best buy.
I use the Ozone belt clip / holster available from VZW
Hard Plastic
I bought a hard plastic case, coated in rubber on the outside, for about $20 from verizon corp. store... It makes the phone a little easier to handle, without it I always felt I was going to drop it, def. a good choice for me, it snaps together well, and has a little pit where you need to insert the edge of a coin and pry it apart, not going to pull apart by accident. The thick design also protects the cam lens from scratches as well. I'd recommend something like this, by the way they even gave me my 22% work discount on the accessory, as well as on the monthly bill.

Will Ozone cases fit my Sprint Snap, or are there slight differences that wont allow snap cases to work?
Case Mate Barely There for Dash 3G
Here is one on Ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Case-Mate-Barel...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item19baaafcca
It comes in 5 colors, my choice is black.
This is the FINEST case for the Dash 3G, a little pricey but you get what you pay for. They go for about $17 on most websites. Form fitting case, protects the sides and corners and adds strength. Comes with a clear screen protector. Adds on a couple of millimeters to the size but you can find a leather case that will fit even with the Case Mate installed when you are on the go.
This case also removes easilly in case you want to change the battery or whatever.
I went quite a few cases before i found this one, and I love it. Forget about the cheap snap on cases they break, the expensive snap ons they wont come off without breaking, the aluminum cases block the signal, this is the case you want!
I´ve just buyed the black silicone case posted before, soon as I got it I´ll post some pics
I got 2 Ozone protective plastic/rubberized front case from handhelditems.com along with the mirror screen protector, along with fast USPS shipping - all for under $10 (USD)
The case fit together nicely & tightly, and made it nearly the same size as the classic Motorla Q series - all the factory slots, usb port, camera & side buttons are easily to use. It gives the phone the extra weight, touch & feel and even if it is dropped, should give it good amount of protection.
I then slide mine into one of those Motorola side pouch for extra margin of safety. At other things, I just put it in the pocket as it's so slim and away from keys, coins or items that can scratch.
I had the leather case with rotating belt clip from VZW for a while and that worked too, except the plastic over the screen sometimes do cause problem trying to read it outdoor, plus, dust gather underneath it.
I have a slightly used OEM Verizon Ozone holster if anybody wants to pony up $10.00 you can have it.

Looking for a case.

I'm looking to get a case for my SGS2, i picked it up locally on CL a few weeks ago and the film that was on the back cover is starting to get messed up, figure I should just get a case.
Anyhow, i'm looking for a case that is easy going in and out of the pocket (a must, its why i have left the film on it, nice and easy out of the pocket), dot need or care about kickstand, and looking to get it on amazon, been looking at all the cases i could find on amazon and came up with two that i think fit the bill, any one have experience with them?

The Aegis case is great (not sure about the Fishbone one though), can't really go wrong.
I would probably go with this one;
http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-CSK3SS..._1_3?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1332720616&sr=1-3
As for skins, don't bother with full skin. If you want a screen protector, Invisishield is excellent, my brother has it on his International S2 and it's very clear and nice, he loves it.
Personally I don't use a screen protector on mine, no issues with scratches whatsoever, not even fine scratches.
Yeah, if you want a good screen/case combo, can't go wrong with Aegis or my preference the Seidio case and invisishield screen protector.
i know when i had the Seido Activ case for my Nexus S it was a bit "grippy" and pulled my pocket out when brining the phone out (slight annoyance), is that one the same?
Having the film is more for the back/sides protection, i saw some threads about how some cases can scratch it up.

For the skin, I would recommend a Ghost Armor one. I just got mine and I'm in love with it. You can barely notice the screen protector is on it, and it works great. Also the texture of the carbon fiber feels great and will keep your phone looking and feeling just like new.
What about this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Body-Glove-Sa..._1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1332726722&sr=1-2
It looks great, I brought it and Im a happy customer
i bought this one
http://www.amazon.com/Premium-Hybrid-Silicone-Durable-Kickstand/dp/B0070DGQW6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1332729809&sr=8-1
im using the sedio active case with clip. not too bulky and easy goes in and out of pocket.
but if you wear skinny jeans like some of these kids nowadays then go with the thinnest case possible.
ended up getting the fishbone one, will update when it shows up (it was @ the $10 mark which i had a gift card on amazon for that amount)
i didnt care for the fishbone case. i have a black one and i dont like the way it feels and it seems to kinda pick up lint in my pocket. i have one pretty much new just sitting here lol. i like this case the best.

The Best Case Ever
The 3DO impact resistant case that Tmobile sells is the best case for any cell phone I have ever seen. It doesn't hang up on clothing like other gel cases and the 3DO technology is outstanding. You must see this case to believe how great it is. Meanwhile check out the videos here and on YouTube (search 3DO)
http://bit.ly/f2gHRk
In my opinion this case is worth every penny and then some. It feels awesome in the hand, doesn't hang up in a pocket and offers superb impact protection.

after messing about with the UAG Composite, Seidio Active (which is a lint magnet, pity) and Otterbox's Commuter, i've finally settled with Body Glove's Bodysuit.
that being said i've been known to be fickle

the channel contains more case reviews with dimensions thrown in (i think they take measurements at the thickest, widest points of the case)
without question in my personal opinion this is my all time favorite ultra rugged case

I absolutely love this case. I have gotten hybrids like this that are HORRIBLE the trick is to find the one with those 6 arc's on the back. THOSE are the good ones.
I have orange and blue coming in for the S3. I found orange plastic portion but I don't want to pay $16 for it (I got the other 2 for under $10)
I have accidentally "hard core" tested this case twice and hopefully never again. it came through perfectly both times.
Once I saw a wasp go into the gas cover of my metro. I opened the gas cover NEST
cool time for pictures. usually insects ignore you unless you mess with em. Wasp's not the same. they are "proactive"
once I got within about 12" a small squadron of them (5 or 6 of the 11 or so that were their (counted in the picture later) took off right for my hand to teach me the error of my ways.
once I felt the wind from their wings I panicked and ended up flinging the phone into a nice high arc 15ft out into the street !!
not a scratch on it.
another time MORON me stuck the phone on the top lip inisde the van hatch. I forgot I had put it their and proceeded to close the hatch on the phone. The sickening crack I heard I would have sword was my phone segregating into two pieces. right across the screen.
Nope it was just the case crunching. it did its job and protected the phone.
EXTREMELY impressed with these cases and I can get them in almost any color combo I want (just have to buy 2 to get the colors you want
I have this case for every phone I have except my defy xt only because they have not made one for it yet.
unless the bamboo case I ordered really grabs me I will probably end up with this case on my S3 as well. I just love this case
and its CHEAP you can usually get one for $8 or $9 shipped

I'm happy when others are happy...... I'd never put this on my phone however. It's F'n huge!
Currently not being productive on my S3.
well the way I see it "huge" costs me $8 while "broken phone" costs me $500 easy decision.
I am "rough" with my stuff sometimes.
plus while this is unique to me that is still "small" to me. I am 6'4" 440 pounds size 13-14 shoes.
to me that size is "just right"

It's not a bad case. I had the $4 version on my S3, but without a holster it was stuck in my pocket. So while running around at work it tended to sweat which freaked me out. It lasted a good month until one day I picked it up without the phone in it and the plastic sides cracked. Maybe the more expensive ones are of a higher quality.
yeah I have gotten some that were so cheap I would not even put my phone in them. scary crap out their
I don't like the silicon first cases like the otter box since if anything gets INSIDE the case it will grind away the finish on the phone. this is less likely with hard first.
From what I've heard the dba ultra case is supposed to be pretty rugged
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
well I could not wait. too paranoid so I paid the anal rape price for a case at a store. I refused to pay $20 for a $3 TPU case so I got a nicer case. a SPECK case in green and grey (better than black or white)
Uploading some pictures now
the design of this case is interesting. its almost as slim as a TPU case but it silicon and polycarbonate like a rugged case. I guess I would call it a "slim rugged"
its "one piece" so the two parts are bonded together. cutouts are perfect. the buttons are super tactile and responsive. LOVE the buttons.
would have preferred a brighter color like blue or orange but its better than black or white that is for sure !
I am actually quite impressed with the case. it FEELS wonderful fits tight does not appear as if it will become lose over time thanks to the polycarbonate shell.
if I you are looking for slim instead of full on armor I would definitely consider this case. very well made looks nice and feels nice adding surprisingly little bulk to the phone.
Here are maybe a couple others to consider-
http://www.tech21.uk.com/#
The most rugged tech21 case actually includes their less expensive case inside another shell, it looks like a reverse defender.
The other one I actually just bought but haven't gotten it yet-
http://www.dbacases.com/complete-ultra.aspx
The complete ultra is like the candy shell/hybrids but has a tpu inner instead of a silicone inner, I don't know about protection levels but it definitely looks better than the other hybrid types, maybe a "semi-rugged"?

Looking for a proper case

Hey xda
Im looking for a proper case for my s3. Right now i have the official flipcase on my phone, but its just too slippery. I dropped my phone 2 tiles because of my case despite being very careful. It slipped out of my pocket once and one time I only got hold of the flip part and the phone fell. Both from 50 cm so nothing to worry about. Before having the s3, i had an ipod touch and i always used it naked with a pouch. But I dont want any scratches on my s3 back (however there are already some on it) so im looking for other protection. I dont tend to drop my phone a lot. Dropped my ipod once in 1,5 years and my s3 2 times (because of the grip). I was looking around and saw a plastic carbon battery cover replacement, but I also do think im better safe than sorry and i should get a more protective case.
I want a case that:
- doesnt add too much bulk
- offers good/decent protection (also borders at the front of the screen)
- a kickstand would be very nice to have (as i watch a lot of youtube on my phone)
- doesnt cost me a leg (€30 max i guess)
- doesnt mess the responsiveness of
Ofcourse i already checked some cases and found the case mate tough and case mate pop. I also do like the look of spigen cases.
Hope you guys have some good suggestions.
Bye mutn
I've had the UAG case for a while and its the best case I've ever had. It does NOT have a kickstand, but its great with drop protection while still keeping the phone nice and slim. I got mine for $30 on amazon, but they are probably cheaper by now.
I have been looking around and I really Like the UAG.
Could someone post a trustworthy link to the slate blue and the Black one on Amazon.co.uk as I live in Europese.

Cases with Kickstand?

I find I am really missing having a kickstand which I had on my Galaxy Nexus case.
I've looked some but there doesn't seem to be much out there with a kickstand.
I tried buying a Cruzerlite but it never came in so I got a refund. I'm not really interested in trying the same brand again.
What cases have you seen available with a kickstand?
did you do a search on amazon..."nexus 5 kickstand"....there's a ton out there, just that too many of them look like they add too much bulk for my liking. honestly, i prefer the tpu cases...my last 2 phones had them and i couldn't tell you how many times i dropped them...i already have 2 cases but think i'm going to order this one...i kinda miss the kickstand as well
How about this?

I did not search Amazon on those keywords.
Tons to look at. Thanks.
If anyone has one they like, post up a link anyway.

I find I am really missing having a kickstand which I had on my Galaxy Nexus case.
I've looked some but there doesn't seem to be much out there with a kickstand.
I tried buying a Cruzerlite but it never came in so I got a refund. I'm not really interested in trying the same brand again.
What cases have you seen available with a kickstand?

This is what I'm using now for my black Nexus 5, fit & finish is fine, no huge gap on the bottom at the micro-usb & speaker/grill openings (unlike the Spigen Ultra Hybrid case)
It's a 2 piece design, the hard plastic w. the flip out kickstand can be removed. It is slim enough that I have no problems slipping it in and out of a canvas vertical belt pouch for extra protection when I'm outside, otherwise, it's in my coat or jacket pocket.
It isn't that much bulkier and looked rugged & sturdy enough for the N5 to survive a drop (no plans to find out either ....)

When I get the chance, I can update this with a few quick photos - seller is in Ohio & shipped free & fast, oversea sellers for less but with a longer wait, especially with holiday mail.
