I just got my Atmosphere and I'm a little disappointed. I like the construction, but the back is a lot more frosted than you would think, especially when comparing it to some of the pics online. It makes an otherwise beautiful phone look very cheap.
I pre-ordered the Genuine HTC One Double Dip Hard Shell - HC C840 - Black / Grey / Black back on 5/13/2013. Got an email saying they expected arrival of the cases several weeks ago, followed by an email several days later saying there is an unknown arrival date.Been waiting nearly a month for this now:

I love my atmosphere case, but this Bear Motion might take the cake for me as my every day carry. It's so sleek and as far as grip goes, it's the best in hand I have experienced thus far.

I agree mate. I think the other cases look good, but what's the point of putting a case on if it's not going to protect it.... #jusysaying

I agree. I think the frosted back cheapens the overall look of the case and, consequently, the phone while in it.That and the gray rubber lining that surrounds the outer case. Pass.
I own the Poetic Atmosphere case and I couldn't disagree more! Once on the phone, the frosted look completely disappears. The aluminum back of the phone shows through extremely cleanly and naturally, and with no cheesy "transparent plastic" glare, (this is the function that the "frosting" serves)..... it appears as if the case is not even present!
This clean look is why I bought it!
I would be curious what other Poetic Atmosphere owners have to say on this subject...
My only complaint with the Poetic Atmosphere is the case is very difficult to remove once installed.
Hi guys, I finally got around to ordering a case and I chose the Otterbox Commuter in black. I chose this partly because I'd hate to break my new phone but also because the shipping is a lot faster than the Poetic Atmosphere (my second choice).
If I don't like the case when I get it, I might order the Atmosphere and only use the Otterbox for special occasions. I got the black because I was worried about the white getting grubby.

You don't mind the size /bulk of the otterbox? That solid black covers up such a beautiful phone... Really is a shame.

I have black, which apparently doesn't look as good as the silver in frosted cases.
