Folio Case for A500 - Acer Iconia A500

Hey everyone,
Just saw this is in Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/Folio-Stand-Lea...s_Apple_Parts_Accessories&hash=item27bc35f0a8
It's pretty cheap and looks thinner and lighter than the usual cases I have seen.
Wondering if anyone has tried this case or at least has heard about it. I'm deciding between this or the one being sold by TPU.
Thanks!

covers the mic, no good!

Hey! Thanks for the head's up! I think I've decided to forego this case or TPU. The rooCase seems to be the one I want!

Although the case is going to be available on July 18 according to the seller.

OKAY, Whats the BEST CASE on the market??

Hi,
So I have had the Kaiser for over a month already. I need a case!! What is the top quality case out right now? Is it www.proporta.com, or another manufacturer?
Cheers,
Phil
or this one, http://www.krusell.se/product.php?productID=2774?
I am siding with the Proporta though. What else?
Phil
I really hope that the Noreve case thats supposed to be coming out for the Kaiser isnt one that doesnt allow you to use the keyboard while it is in the case...and i wish it would be coming out soon, they keep on pushing it..

Vaja cases are amazing, but they r $65
Kaiser Case Options
For the time being, I'm getting by ok on the stock Kaiser case along with a small neoprene case from OP/ Tech USA. The Velcro on the stock case will lose its grip over time and repeated use and that fact alone has me case hunting too.
The OP/ tech case is useful for when I just want to carry the phone someplace other than clipped to my belt (say a cargo pocket). There is a clip on it too if need be. The real plus for me is its utility & bang for the buck: the case provides shock & screen protection and even a bit of water resistance with minimal bulk. It stashes well and the price is right. There are color options too. I’ve used these cases for cameras, GPS and cell phones for some time now and like them a lot.

Mind you, I’m still looking for a different leather case that is appropriate in business environment. This one looks kind of interesting at the moment.

I've got a Krusell Horizontic case http://www.krusell.se/productUni.php?productID=2419&category=49&x=9&y=8 , since I prefer that format.

I am a big fan of the Krusell cases. I have one for my 3125, 8125, 8525, and my son's SLVR. But the one they have specific for the Tilt/TyTN II I don't really care for. And I've decided I like the looks of the Tilt so much I don't want to cover it up with that style of case. *better to show it off when pulling it out* I am swaying to a horizonal case like the one you linked to. Could elaborate on the "bulkiness" of that case. Does it compare to the one that came with the 8125?
I should have my Proporta case in the next few days. Will post a review when I've got it.

How is the clip on that case? It looks pretty nice for the money but I will use the clip all the time and need it to hold very well to my belts.

I'm sure it comes with this one. Works great holding on to a belt. Another thing I like about the Krusell is their Multidapt consept. See here Provides a lot of versitility on how and were one can attach there phone.
The Krusell Horizontic case I am using is slightly bulkier than the one supplied with the Tytn II. It however seems sturdier in offering protection to the device. The case can by attached either via the supplied clip or via the two belt loops at the back. I also like the fact that it closes by means of a magnetic button, and not via a velcro strip.
Krusell also offer a lifetime guarantee on the products. I am mentioning this not that I have any connection with them, but because I once sent in a case for a replacement and this was done with no questions asked.
I bought one of these cases on Ebay. It arrived Friday and I found it to be a perfect fit. All the cutouts match up and it's very well made.

Hi,
I am new and have the TyTN II for two weeks now. Beautifulll!
My previous model P3300 is lighter though, but hasn't features I really wanted to have (HSDPA f.i.)
On topic now:
I've ordered a case from pielframa for the P3300 beginning this year and the quality/fit was awesome. I've emailed them last week and they informed me the TyTN II case is in the making (<-- I'm dutch, so not sure if this is correct) by there design department and will be on the market soon.
Reading the posts here I think the noreve.com case mentioned by "hofo_mofo" looks like it is good quality with perfect fit too. Just wanted to add pielframa on this thread as their case for my P3300 was just perfect!
As soon the TyTN II case from pielframa comes out it's mine, I will be really carefull till then in the meantime
It is available

I like Pielframa cases, having had one for a previous pda. They are of a good quality and fit. However, what type of Pielframa case are you after? Is it the one where to talk on the phone you have a flap of leather dangling about? I don't particularly like that design for a phone.

HTC OEM Case: Will it work for Fuze?

The case below is a horizontal pouch style. I am curious about the fit. IT was originally marketed with the HTC Touch Dual styled devices. Do you guys think it would be a good fit for the Fuze?
http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-TOUCH-OEM-E...14&_trkparms=72:1240|66:4|65:12|39:1|240:1318
The other option for me is another OEM case shown here:
http://www.windowsmobilenow.com/us/p_wm_acc1.aspx?i=169487&partner=wmusfroogle
If anyone has either of these cases I would really like your comments on fit. I expect the finish will be similar to the finish of the HTC OEM Tytn case that I currently carry. Any help is appreciated as i need to protect her soon. My front pocket is not the ideal carry spot for me and the Tytn case is simply too big for the Fuze.
I'm using the S322 case, magnetic closure instead of velcro, for my T-Mobile MDA Vario IV (Raphael 300).
Bit tight in the early days, but works like a charm.
You mention that yours has a magnetic closure instead of velcro. Did they release both variants? Where did you purchase from and how did you ensure that you got the right one.
I bought it at a mobile phone shop in the nearest city, don't remember which one...
It was in an original HTC blister packaging, they removed it so I could try it on my Vario IV.
As I already stated, a tight fit, so I handed over 16 € and left them the blister packaging
It has one magnet, not as powerfull as the two in the TyTN case but strong enough.
Don't know about the velcro closure, it's not mentioned on the Dutch site, it's mentioned on the UK site and the Expansys site. (who are running the European htc accessory store)
Thanks for your input. Unfortunately, most US dealers never carry OEM cases, and I am forced to buy online sight unseen. I like a snug fit that develops into a perfect fit as you've described so I guess I just need to make my purchase.

Guys,
I will go to BestBuy to check this out in further detail. But in the meantime...
@Venelar,
Please post some photos of the phone in the case and out. I would love to see as many as you could post.
EDIT:
I went by my local BestBuy, and sure enough that is the exact case that I already have. IMNSHO that case is too large for the phone. I will be trying to secure the HTC PO S322.
Guys, I was on the HTC Forum where I saw this "customizable leather" case and some glowing reviews. It seems to be nice enough, and thought I would see any of the xda family had picked one up. I have never ween it mentioned here so I thought you guys would want to know. I think I'll order one.

I purchased this soft pouch case ( http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wir...=organic&utm_term=POS322&utm_campaign=froogle ) from the store in NYC. It's a tight fit at first, it even peeled away my screen protector (2 of them) at first but it becomes just right after awhile. The velcro could be a bit better too...

Seidio like case, but avaliable in the UK?

As the title suggests, im about to get a new kaiser in good condition and seeing how my last kaiser faired with my lifestyle id like to get a rubberised case for the phone.
Searching & reading up has told me the Seidio case is a good idea, but shipping to the Uk doubles the price to nearly $60, a tad silly imo.
Does anyone know where i could source this case/a similar one within the UK?
cheers guys
edit:
Ebay brought up this, but at nearly £29 its too much;
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Seidio-Rubber...14&_trkparms=72:1301|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318
please guys, someone from the Uk must have a decent rubberised case. iv read all the horror stories about the cheap ones on ebay & amazons and would like to avoid those pitfalls.
I bought twice a cheap one from China through ebay and everything was OK, including fast shipping. If you're interested, let me know and I might find the seller.
if you could that'd be great mate thanks!

I have this case. Good case but one problem. The tabs that hold the case to the phone can easily snap off so the case is not held securely on. More of a problem with the top and not the bottom but a pain none the less.
Have been looking at this case(think it comes from uk).

with P&P comes to about £27.

Seidio Innocase (AMAZING)

just got mine in the mail yesterday.
bought the black one for the Touch Pro, with the leather holster for 50$
by far thee single best case/holster combo i've ever bought for any phone
seidio makes some top of the line stuff
if you guys havent gotten one of these yet, spend the $30 and please do
the case is plastic but its coated and rubberized, so no more fingerprints and your phone isnt slippery any more, never have to worry about your chrome edges chipping or any of that.
amazing case, cant give enough praise. no pics unfortunately, but after reading a few reviews from other buyers of the same product on here, i just had to get it and now i'm recommending the same to the rest of you

Just curious, but why did you choose the leather holster instead of the matching spring-clip holster?
I used a Seidio clip holster on my Cingular 8125, and have the Innocase and clip holster combo on my AT&T Tilt.
I'm looking at getting an AT&T Fuze, and will probably get the Innocase and clip holster combo just like what I have on my Tilt.
Just like you, I really like the Seidio products that I purchased.
The only other thing I would ask for from Seidio would be to offer the Innocases in different colors like they have for the Tilts. I have a standard black Innocase on my Tilt, and my wife has a red Innocase on hers. This makes it easy for us to tell our phones apart.
Seidio has great products, I love the case + matching clip case.
I bought a combo set from seidioonline.com too bad
I don't want to say anything.Just have a look few photos my taken.

did you order the " AT&T HTC Fuze" case?? cuz that looks like it is for the Sprint Touch Pro. On Seidio's site, there are no blue cases for the Fuze. AT&T's version is a little different.
I bought a case from Seidio for my tilt and it was a really quality case that fit perfectly. I pan to get one for my Fuze too.
I get it....
I have two coupons for seidioonline.com INSIDER5 Gets you $5 off an order of $50 and INSIDER10 gets you $10 off $75.
Hurry up and use them because they expire in 11 hours! (Feb 24th, 2009 at 11:59PM)
I dont work for seidio, just purchased the innocase for my tilt a while back and get coupons in my email.
I've posted the coupons to www.retailmenot.com so check there for other coupons. (not affiliated with retailmenot.com in anyway, just think its a great site to share coupons and shopping tips on).
hope this helps some people out.

i never thought about that. that would be kool to get the case in a different color!
I, too, have the innocase + holster. Recently, the clips on the bottom half of the phone fell off. I will be contacting Seidio soon and will keep you updated on how they handle the situation. Aside from this, I love the case.
i just finished my order on a case black for att fuze and holster, does anyone have any expirience with the wear on the case from the clip?

So far , the clips & case is pretty good, I do not see any wear out.
This is the best protection for the phone I never have.
Yes the Seidio products are excellent Ive been using them since the treo 600 then 650 then 700wx.....and now touch pro....
and the product reliability has DEFINITELY INCREASED OVER THE YEARS
thought id contribute my .02 cents.
the innocase + holster is fantastic! mine came in today and boy i love it! the innocase is perfect for me. nice feel, and plus you can carry your phone around in your pocket with just the innocase.
No wear whatsoever with mine as well. I love how easily it just snaps into place. Can't go wrong!
Just got mine in the mail today. Absolutely the best thing I've bought for my TP.
I had bought the case with the hopes that I wouldn't get a heart attack every time I dropped my phone anymore, but its so nice that I don't wan't to scratch the case either haha.
Excellent quality case.
I think the Innocase looks great. Curious if one of you existing owners can answer something though. Is the texture of the case similar to those of silicone skins? Like is it sticky to the touch? Or is it smooth?

Accessories

This is just a placeholder!
I've heard there are no official accessories yet? Just have to buy generic stuff that hopefully fits
There are several screen protectors that fit perfectly on ebay.
Bought this case. Typical TPU-case.
Little overpriced but there is only few cases on the market so I undestand that.
When there will be more sellers and more cases the prices will drop for sure.
ah nice, fair bit of stuff on ebay. Didn't realise

As far as i'm aware 2degrees have said they are getting cases in stores in the coming weeks, although they have been saying that for the past month. I've only checked in with the wellington store. Maybe wait a week or two?
will the phone with a silicon case be able to fit New Leather Case For Huawei U8800 IDEOS X5 Black(ebay),or the soft pouch with android logo?also there are 2 kinds of silicone cases 1 thats normal silicone and the other one is like silicone and foam whats theyr dieference?

The Nillkin case is not silicon but it fits very well, headphones and usb plug in with no problems and the edge around the screen sits up a bit so it helps to protect the screen as well. The case is still flexible and offers good protection should you drop your X5.
Has anyone found any bicycle/motorbike holder?
Found.. HARD Case plus Screen protector.. on ebay for $10 + $5 shipping
Still waiting for it, should get it this week.
I have Insmat screen protector, very good install and sticks on it like it should. Totally unnoticeable too.

has anybody bought those?
the vid and photos look promising
How about 'Skin protectors', has anybody come across with one for U8800? Something like ZAGG's ones. They don't seem to have products for the X5.
