Which Case?
I was looking at the TPU case and was wondering if anyone has any experience with them. Are they the material that gets stuck when you pull it from your pocket?

If so, I may have to spend more a bit more and get the option with the kickstand

Re: Which Case?
No, it will not get stuck in your pocket like a rubbery silicone case will. TPU cases are made out of thermo polyurethane, which is bendable like silicone but not stretchable. It's kind of like a cross between a hard shell case and a silicone case.
The bottom line is, it's slip resistant, but not so sticky that you can't pull the thing out of your pocket.
I just popped my phone into the matte black version of the case and I do like it. It adds minimal girth to the phone which was important to me, and snaps in like a glove.
For the $9 price tag I highly recommend it.Thanked by 3: - 09-16-2011, 12:25 PM #4

I tried out the carbon fiber quicksand case at the store this morning and didn't like it...some edges really really felt sharp on my fingers. Have since put the TPU case on and it is absolutely perfect. Feels lime it isn't even there.

Re: Which Case?
I have to admit, the only reason I purchase the case was because I wanted the free screen protector, (as it wasn't none available at the time), but I have to say that I'm really digging this case, It is really nice. The screen protector however is not. It is a tad to WIDE & so one side will not lay flat on the phone thus creating a large air bubble that runs the entire length of the phone. So the hunt for a decent screen protector continues. At least I got a nice case out of it!

Re: Which Case?
I'm waiting for either seidio to make one or hopefully incipio. I sent an email last night to incipio asking about when the NGP case would be available but I don't expect a response til Monday. I want to be able to quickly take it out of the case to put in the car dock, such reminds me I need to track down a factory car dock cause my store didn't have any.

Re: Which Case?
I wasted 30bucks on that same kickstand case. It's stylish though and I was desperate for a case. Best Buy didn't have any and the Sprint store had the kickstand cases in stock. So I had an impulse buy. not to mention Sprint store also sold me a 3pack of screen covers for a good hunk of change. I felt cheated leaving that place.
Why did I pay 30bucks for a freaking case? I really just realized how dumb that wasLast edited by nikeairs23; 09-18-2011 at 02:03 AM.

Re: Which Case?
nope....maybe a palm treo 650..lol
i've never been a fan of putting screen protectors and crap on..it takes away from the "touch" and
"visual" experience....
unless you are clumsy and drop things in your hand, it may come in handy
for me, i tend to ruin my phones while in pocket with keys, coins, etc - 09-18-2011, 12:58 PM #20

Re: Which Case?
I am having a hard time deciding on the TPU cases without seeing it in person.
Anyone who has the Matte and High Gloss, can you tell me which one you prefer? I will probably go for the black color.
Is the High Gloss very prone to fingerprints and smudges? Is it easy to get dust particles stuck on the Matte? - 09-18-2011, 07:03 PM #23

Re: Which Case?
I love the matte case I got. The back portion is matte and the top 1/4 around the screen and edge is gloss black (kinda like a two piece snap on case look). It's all one piece though and fits like a glove.
