Cases for the HTC One

Anyone see this one yet. Looks like a decent alternative to the mophie battery case.

I've been looking at that one myself. I would go with it over the Mophie in a second since it's $40 less and has a kickstand. I still can't understand why they're only stuffing these things with 2500mAh batteries. They could have easily gotten a 3000+ in there. Also, it specifically states that it will recharge the One up to 80% capacity, which means like all external chargers it's using up to 20-30% in juice just for itself. All the more reason why it should have had a larger battery. I haven't pulled the trigger yet.
 
I had ordered a grey clear Atmosphere, but they sent me a purple clear one. They were out of the grey and said they would replace this with a new version in grey as soon as it is available. Fits really well, but am ashamed to sport a purple or pink covered phone. So for now my HTC one is covert. :)

I was going to get the Pink, since it looks almost red on the Amazon pics. But then I saw the blue and orange and the rubber is more a washed out color than those pictures... why no red!?!? :(

Exactly. I don't get it either. At least they state it will only get you to 80%. I'm not gonna pay 100 bucks for something that won't even double my battery life. 60 is fine but I'd still like to see it at 3000-4000.

Would it be possible for you to share some pictures of your case in purple? I'm thinking about buying the purple one but pictures on sales sites all look different. I'm not sure if I want the black and clear one or purple.

I already have the amethyst Seidio surface with kickstand on the way (I love seidios purple color) but I really like the look of the poetic.

I'd appreciate it!
 
I just purchased the Incipio Feather Ultra Thin Snap-on Case (HTC One feather Ultra Thin Snap-On Case)

I absolutely love it...I think it is about as minimalist as a case could be and still provide decent protection. The case is a soft touch case that repels fingerprints and feels really good in the hand. It makes the phone feel very solid (as if it had to do that!) and leaves the phone feeling thin and looking great! The case fits very snugly so I would think that it will hold on in the case of a drop. The case extends beyond the top and bottom of the phone and provides a slight lip of protection on the front for the screen. The only negative is that the volume rocker is a little awkward to access, but definitely not a deal breaker!

Here are some pictures:

Found one at a AT&T store (I hit up Sprint, Tmo, and AT&T stores from time to time for accessories with pretty good luck). If you are in an area with a Fry's they tend to have great selections.

I looked at that one but went with a black Nillkin instead. I was afraid of the volume rocker issue you mentioned and the Nillkin keeps the bay open on both sides. Minimal, solid, sleek, perfect.

Interesting! I had not noticed that about the Nilkin case... But I actually have that exact one you listed on ebay already on order... Should be here any day! I will do another mini review of it when it comes in... The look and feel of the incipio is premium though!

So, I placed an order on Spigen's website for my HTC One Ultra Thin Air case on the 10th of May and to my surprise, guess what was waiting for me today in my mailbox... Now, let's see when I get my Incipio DualPro CF case. Ordered it same time, same shipping.

On my M7 (I like it better.)

Is it true about that double dip flip case, the paint of the case wears off onto the edges of the phone? I could have sworn I read something like that. Please correct me if I am wrong. I had one on order, but canceled and went for the hard shell instead.
 
Seidio active is the way to go. It does not add a lot of thickness to the phone and the rubber has good grip to it.

My choice if you really want 100% protection then use otterbox, ( i purchased defender and commuter and i love it) if you only want good look then you can choose any thin case
