I wasn't able to find anyone else using this case so I figured I'd give it a shot to see if it's any good. Seidio seems to make very good products and this case is right up there with the rest in quality and protection.
Assembly:
It's a 2 part case, one half slides down from the top of the phone and the other half slides on from the bottom. Both halves lock together on the sides and on the back. It's very easy to put on and take off.
Fit:
The case fits PERFECT on the phone. If you have the invisible shield on your phone it will NOT fit. The inside of the case has a felt lining to protect the finish on the phone. You won't feel like your going to scratch your phone when you take the case on or off. The case also wraps around to the front so it's protecting every edge and corner.
Feel:
It's a "hard" case but flexible, as seidio says. The material isn't rubber but it's soft and does feel somewhat like it's rubber. I love how the phone feels, i'm not concerned about it slipping out of my hands at all.
Durability:
I've only had the case for about a week now and I haven't put it through any rigorous testing... I hope I never do. On the other hand my girlfriend pulled the sheets off of the bed really fast and there went my treo pro flying accross the room on to the carpet floor The phone is perfectly fine though so it passed it's first test.
All together I'd give the phone a 10/10 rating. At $30 + shipping some people would argue that it's too much. You get what you pay for sometimes and this case is certainly worth every penny.
Other notes:
You may want to invest in a screen protector as well. I went with the screen protector seidio offers and I like it a lot. It's only the size of the screen so it doesn't cover from the top down to the palm button. But it gets the job done very nicely.

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!

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!!!
I got the OtterBox Black Defender Case - MOTOROLA ATRIX (TM) 4G with the belt clip and built in screen protector. I kind of liked it at first but it keeps jabbing me in the side and I wish I could just put it in my pocket but it's too think to do so while sitting down.
So I'm looking to get another case that will mostly protect my phone from scratches and a few bumps here and there. So this means I need a screen protector too. It's hard to tell how the screen protector feels and how the case fits on the phone.
What have you used or seen that you like and why?

I currently use the anti-glare screen protectors that AT&T carries in store. It takes away a little of the brilliance of the screen but I don't mind. I'm also using the Incipio Feather case but for more protection I also did have the Speck Candyshell which fit it really well and did not impede the screen protector. The only reason I returned it was because the "outer-shell" was too smooth for me, I like the rubberized feel of the Incipio.
I have the OtterBox Commuter case on my Atrix. I really like it. It not nearly as bulky as the defender case but still provides seemingly decent protection.
Do these cases keep it from seating on the laptop dock properly?
Seconding the Otterbox Commuter. The naked Atrix felt kinda slippery, the rubber sleeve peeking through the clip on shell makes it feel secure in my hand.

I've been rocking the otterbox impact case with full ghost armor. Works and feels great

Does the Otter Box cases pick up a lot of lint and other stuff in your pockets?

As far as the laptop dock, I'm not sure but with the multimedia dock I have heard that the Speck case can fit if the insert is taken out. If you use the laptop dock quite a bit I would go with the Otterbox Impact case because it would be the easiest to remove and put back on.

Yes, Otterbox cases are notorious lint magnets. It's a trade off for the protection.
Has anyone heard about "Skinomi TechSkin", "Great Shield", or "splash Masque"?
They are the ones that you can get off of Amazon.com.
I also have the Incipio feather case, works great so far, and is easier for me to hold on to. I work in a warehouse and from handling boxes all the time its hard for me to keep a decent hold on smooth plastic unless I try to crush it.
As far as a screen protector goes, I have not seen a need for one yet. I forgot I had my keys in my pocket when I put the phone in and didn't get any scratches.

Yea, I feel th same way. I usually take such good care of my phones that I never even get scratches on the screen protector but knowing my luck if I ever tried without one something terrible would happen.
Got the Otterbox Defender for mine. I'll happily have a thicker phone for the added protection.
body glove case
Body glove case seems to be the best fit for the atrix...for me, i.e slim, feels sturdy in hand and removes easily to allow fit with other moto accessories.
Just got the Incipio case and it's great so far. I also have a SGP ultra clear screen protector.
This should be in the accessories forum.
I like to use my phones naked!
Even if they get damage.
In fact, I happen to dislike very much how those protectors make the phone larger in the pocket.
If you know of anything for the Atrix which doesn't make it bigger please let me know.
Gold luck guys.
I also have the Otterbox Commuter case and no screen protector since the display is made out of Gorilla Glass.
Not using a screen protector. Just a bodyglove tpu case. Love it.

Using the skinomi body skin .. it's awesome. applying the back part was a little challenging but i got it down.. I failed on my screen though because I did it in low light.. so I didn't notice i still had some lint on the screen so you can see a little when it's bright.

How does the Skinomi feel on the touch screen?
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:

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.
Saw this on slick deals and jumped on it - here is my short review:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Ga...tector-/253474585472?var=&hash=item80acdc01c2
Screen protector is like an other "spray-on" protector. Great but it isn't glass. Good thing is that they give you two. The case is great, though. Clear and has great grip! Buttons feel easy to push and definitely a good lip around the phone. Reminds me of the Spigen I had on my S7E.
The Fast charger is OKAY, no adapter included but I think the bundle for $29.99, it isn't bad.
Overall, I'm happy, only thing I wish for was a kickstand on the case. I ended up getting a metal ring which doubles as a magnet for car mount but hate that it protrudes from the case.
Will probably wait for a battery case with a kickstand to grab later this year. Cheers!
