I own a S100 for a couple a days and I'd like to by a skin case. I would like to now if that kind of skin could damage that nice body... I would not like it to be marked anyway. I'd like to keep it as new as possible to be able to by it when I want to.
by skin case do you mean a silicone case? if so take a look at these sites
http://www.boxwave.com/ click FlexiSkin look for HTC, i-mate, or O2 (as it is basically the same)
http://shop.brando.com.hk/o2xda.php (link to XDA accessories including mini)
http://www.capdase.com/ capdase also makes cases.
I have the brando silicone case and leather case they work ok. But I also ordered the boxwave one as this has a hard plastic cover for the screen.

Kudos to the people at Boxwave.com. I ordered several accessories for my Kaiser and didn't realize I ordered the wrong case. Returning the case and getting the correct Armor case was simple. The Armor case arrived today and fits like a glove. Highly recommended.
Here is a link for Kaiser accessories.

I like how the description for the leather case says "custom fitted for your AT&T Tilt". - So why does it have a hole for the front camera then!?
What is the thinnest snap-on case? I saw a few "hard cover" cases on ebay but I am skeptical if they are junk. I don't wanna spend $30 on a case, but just want something thin that will protect it from scratches and some bumps.
The sticker protectors are ok, but they don't look the best.
I find that the bodyguardz sticker protectors work wornders. Personally I've used it since 2 months after I purchased my fuze and i don't get any scratches at all and they actually get inconspicuous. No one can tell that I have the stickers on it and it feels really good.
I got a great deal on amazon on a clear plastic case, a solid black case and 2 more screen protectors. Came out to around 8 bucks (including shipping). Check out around there and maybe you can find something nice.
got me a pdair aluminium case for the raphael/touch pro, works great!
I'm a truck mechanic, so I can't use anything else!
Regards,

damn. that aluminum case sounded so cool! Then it turned out to be hinged.
The aluminum case sucks!!! every time you drop the phone it comes flying out of the case. you have to keep bending back the latch for it to stay closed. the screw in clip in the back striped out in a week.
I'm in concrete, so I wouldn't use this if it was FREE!!!
Hi!
Yesterday I sent my X2 to service*, so I have probably a month or so to look for a screen protector - or do I need one? X2 is not equipped with one, so maybe S-E thinks the screen is good enough without it?
Probably not, so I'd like if you could recommend me a screen protector, maybe two - glossy and matte.
I don't care about its scratch resistance, I just want it to be as thin as possible so it does not interfere with the touch detection much.
Does anyone actually notice any difference between "expensive" and "cheap eBay" screen protectors?
Thanks!
*I know this sentence is not right, what term should I use?
Nobody using a screen protector for their X2?
im sure there was a thread about this somewhere else. but anyway, check out durasec hightec. i had their screen protector on my X1 for a year. its a special self healing plastic. small cuts and scratches just dissappear! highly recommended. they have their own website and are also on ebay. i think it comes from germany. costs around £9.
this is there ebay website. you dont want the cleartec ones, theyre just regular plastic.. its the HIGHTEC single protector.

they also have a regular website

i really wouldnt bother with the cheapo ones. i had three with the X2 when i got it and they only last a week or so and get scratched very easily. the durasec will last as long as you have the phone. its quite thick but doesnt affect the touchscreen response at all.

I bought one for the i-Phone (price 2$ ) because in Lebanon we don't have accessories for SE so I cut it in order to become the size of the X2, touch so well and protect the screen from the wounds
The best solution for screen protect is Brando protector. I bought one and can´t belive that is so briliant! Best protector ever!
Here it is: http://mobile.brando.com/bw-ultraclear-smart-phone-s-p-sony-ericsson-xperia-x2-_p05064c0864d008.html
Thanks for your replies!
Well, yesterday I ordered some cheap protectors from eBay, both glossy and matte. I went after the lowest price, because I so far have not found any comparison or reliable testing which would prove these expensive "brand" protectors to be better. It is just a piece of plastic anyway, isn't it?
Hey guys I just got the Evo and want to get one of those Skin covers that sticks to the whole phone without having a ton bulk. You guys have any preference on what works well and protects stuff well?
Edit:
Sorry but I see tons of posts on this so I am going to look through those, also see lots of posts about the camera lens cracking, is there a back that will protect my camera when I set it down.

http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-reviews/230975-ringke-case-56k-warning.html
Ringke is a new case... $17 free shipping.
I am currently trying it out.. and I have to say.. it is really great. worth it.
NOT same as the other soft covers that feel like crap and sticky and grab lint from your pockets.
the gray transparent cover does seem a little tight, so go with the other colors.
Seidio Innocase surface. Very little bulk and protects the camera when set down.
Sent from my EVO 3G!
meh, i got a silicone case, a car mount, and a car charger all for less than 16 bucks delivered from amazon.
my case cost somewhere between 1 penny and 3 pennies. it has a good grip to it, protects it from falls, and doesn't add much bulk. i actually like it because it's silicone, rather than plastic, and therefore slippage is minimal. handy if the phone is on a slick surface.
This FTMFW!

It doesnt have the rubbery feeling, so it goes in/out of your pocket like if it didnt have a cover.

that looks pretty good.
I highly recommend the Seidio Innocase II. It's rubberize plastic, thick enough to endure those brutal drops but thin and slick enough to slip into your pocket. Seidio also sells a belt clip that goes with its Innocase II. Highly recommend if you're carrying it with you to work.
As for one of those clear covers, I highly recommend Phantomskinz. I did a ton of research before committing myself to phantomskinz and found out that their protective screens are slightly thicker than most of the competition and they provide you with two sheets -just in case you mess up.
If you're interested in utilizing both (Sedio Innocase doesn't come with sheets), then I'd get the innocase and a front screen cover from phantomskinz. You don't want to buy the whole body cover from phantomskinz because the innocase II has pretty low tolerances when you try putting it on and realize that it wont fit.
I just bought the case mate barely there from newegg for $9.99 plus free shipping. It protects the back and sides but not the top or bottom. This case with my screen protector should hopefullly be enough protection for me without adding too much bulk.

that is crazy!!! big...
like a tank... ugly in my opinion.
great to have, if you think you are going to be in a rough area.. this is great. but not an every day cover.
I hate to add all that heft to my sexy thin device.
As a compliment to a good case, I ordered Stealthguards for all my phones. Work great and the screen protector is smooth.
Also....they are free. Just pay the $2.?? for s/h. Pretty darn good deal if you ask me. And, I took the cutout for the camera and put it over the lens so it doesn't ever get scratched.
EVO: http://www.stealthguards.com/index.php/popular/htc-evo-4g-full-body-protection.html
I'm a minimalist, so I went with the smallest possible case: Case Mate's Barely There
This is a very high quality case. Truly a skin tight fit. I've dropped the phone a few times and no damage.
Comes with a screen protector I gave to my buddy and he says it's great.
I paid retail (~$25 incl. shipping) but NewEgg has it for $10 shipped: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875998756
Says OOS til Monday.
i used to think the body glove was the best and it was for the hero but for the evo it sucks. broke on me in 3 weeks time. i got fed up and went to my local mall and bought a matte black standard case and it looks and feels great. only $20 too. seems to even keep the dust out more.
Diference between http://cgi.ebay.com/Silicone-skin-c...405332?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2c5c0531d4
and this http://cgi.ebay.com/TPU-skin-cover-...413375?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2c5cbc6c3f
Also any opionions on which 1 is better to get?
From what I have seen the TPU case is more 'plasticky' if you know what I mean? It's harder and less stretchy than a traditional silicon case. I just ordered a blue TPU case from your second link. I personnallly don't really like the squishy silicon cases because dirt and pocket fluff and crap gets under them easily and can scratch your device worse than if it was naked. The TPU should be a tight fit and prevent crap getting in it.
Check this out. Tells you about TPU cases and why they are better than Soft Silicone:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOYcxdBuu7E&feature=related
I have the first one and it's great. Soft silicone, good & hard stuff.
The case arived today(tpu) almost 3 weeks to reach greece,well its a nice case with the only problem so far that it dont fits well with the oem neoprone pouch(needs some pushing to get it in and some pulling to get it out),but what i noticed visiting sikai's site using google translator is that this case costs 25 yiouan(if i spell it corect) which is 2,5 euros so we pay it 3-4 times the original price in ebay.
Just noticed it slips too.
I ordered the Item number: 270828497862 in ebay
its like your first but more cheaper and includes 6 screen protector
Im waiting to see the quality of that
I believe the TPU has more quality..
I am using this sikai TPU case. It's very very good. Phone looks like without case. It's perfectly fit and have strong protection. They send me with screen protector but i don't used yet, because i have another screen protector.
