Case Choices That Work With Large Headphone Jack

[JAG21979]

In order for me to use my Audio Technicas with the 10, I have to remove my case (case mate, clear case) because the cutout for the headphone jack is too small. Anyone have a nice protective case that doesn't require removal to use a large headphone jack?

Why not mod the case? Bore a bigger hole with a drill bit or take a razor blade to it. That's what I always do. Heat and a piece of metal works good for reshaping plastic too.

Great recommendation, I will do that!

I wouldn't mind trying the Ice View case, although I'm not too crazy about flip cases. I did have the dot view case and it was pretty neat.

This is the case that I have. It has a cutout going across the top of the case which should give you plenty of space for the headphones if you don't mind a clear case.

I'm glad someone asked this. This is very important to me and hence I almost always choose Spigen cases. The one I'm using on my HTC 10 is the Crystal Shell. It fits the plug on my AKG K240's perfectly. I would highly recommend it and also recommend setting up a personal audio profile for whatever studio quality headphones you pair the HTC 10 up with. I can personally say, my AKG K240's (granted they are newer "Studio" editions) never sounded better outside of a vacuum tube preamp.
