DROID TURBO: Cases

[Ch4dders]

Re: droid turbo cases?

I have a Seidio case with kick stand on my Turbo and It charges great on my Verizon upright Qi charger. The metal kick stand does get warm but actually the phone temp stays in the mid 90's while charging. Its almost like the kick stand works as a heat sink and pulls some heat away from the phone. (The phone alone without the case while on the Qi charger I was seeing temps around 101 to 104)

I also have the Seidio Surface case on my Turbo and it charges fine on my Nokia Qi charger. I also have noticed that the temperature is lower than what it was on my Droid DNA. I had the Surface case on it too (sans kickstand) and I can tell you it used to get well over 100 degrees while charging. Interesting how things work...

Re: droid turbo cases?

just sent back my tudia dual layer.. its a nice case but the outer cut of the mold is terrible, and it doesnt fit up with its hard plastic backing at all.. IMO it should be smooth in the transition of the two.

I went ahead and ordered the aegis trident even though a user mentioned he was told it might not fit the BN version (which I have). I couldnt find anything on the site mentioning it doesnt fit that version so, I am going to give it a shot. Hopefully it fits worse case scenario is it has to get sent back.

I think you're the only one besides me to even mention the Trident Aegis so far, and then I went ahead and got a different case, ha. Yeah, I had called Trident, who first told me that it wouldn't fit it... I did mention that they should say so in their website description, but then they hedged and said that it probably wouldn't fit because they designed it for the MGF but weren't sure because haven't actually tested it with the BN (and have no plans to make a separate BN case) so it might. I had planned on testing it myself until I discovered the Tri Shield case.

I think there's a decent shot that the Trident will fit the BN because the inner layer has some give, but the question is how snug have they made the outer shell on this one. Philly, I can't wait to hear about your experience with the Trident, hope it fits!

yea I can't find a review anywhere online.. I'll make sure to post one as soon as it arrives and I get to try it out

edit: feb 2nd I ended up trading in the BN version for the regular. the nylon was becoming frayed pretty badly. so i guess I won't know if this case works with the BN version.

I've had the Casemate naked the past few months but just picked up a Diztronic and really like it. The fit and feel is great and has better front protection with a slightly higher lip.

Trident case is great based on initial review. I'll give it a few days before I sign off on it but it seems perfect

How is the fit with the Ballistic Nylon in the surface?

The BN Turbo is a very tight fit in the Seidio Surface. It will work but it's tight.
I have switched to the Dilex Pro and it fits the BN Turbo great!

I think this may have been reported earlier, but I didn’t want to wade through all the responses to find it, so please forgive my possibly redundant report…

I recently received the Seidio spring-clip holster for the Droid Turbo. It is specifically intended for a naked phone and fits my ballistic nylon really well. Up until I received this holster I was living with a nice leather holster originally intended for the Blackberry Z30. It offers great protection, but while I could get my phone into/out-of the Z30 holster, the pull-it-out movement has been quite challenging because of the relatively tight fit. Perhaps if I waited long enough the Z30 holster’s inner material would compress a bit and I’d more easily be able to remove the phone from the holster. However, now that I have an alternative I’m not likely to reach that point.

I’m really pleased with the Seidio holster. The latching mechanism works really well, making it quite simple/easy to insert/remove. I’ll keep the Z30 holster… It could be useful when traveling to places where the easy-to-remove Seidio phone/holster combination makes an attractive target for quick-lift operators

The trident case isn't super tight on the Kevlar version I'm guessing it fits the BN version without a problem

I went otter box defender and put glass screen protector on my Droid turbo ballistic nylon version

I was using the Defender, until the Tech21 became available from Verizon. Like you, I removed the factory Otterbox Defender screen protector. That's a great combination! Wise choice!

I had the green speck case shipped with my phone. I wouldn't mind similar protection from a slim case but it does the job. I have the bn if anybody is wondering whether the speck fits...no issues at all.

It's a brighter green. Put my watch against it for contrast.

The Seidio Belt Clip is awesome with a side of awesome sauce. Both versions (for cased and caseless).

Seidio doesn't offer the convert for the Turbo.
Only the Surface and Dilex Pro. I have both and they are great cases.

 

[cbironman24]

If anyone with the Tech21 case is looking for a good holster, the Seidio Dilex Pro holster for the Turbo fits it great.

 

[teeitupmo#WN]

#cbironman24 I have the Tech21 case too. Is the Seidio holster specifically for the Turbo or the LG G3? Does the holster also work with that Speck Grip case?

The holster that I have in the above picture is the one they sell specifically for the Turbo's Dilex Pro case. I bought it as a combo. The Dilex Pro case and the holster together. I had the Tech21 since I bought the phone and today figured I would try it with the holster. I don't have the Speck Grip case so I can't verify if that will fit this holster. I do think I saw somewhere (maybe in this thread) that the speck case did fit with the LG G3 holster that Seidio has.

 

[teeitupmo#WN]

Oh. My bad. When I opened up your picture, it showed me the green Speck case for the Turbo, I thought that was yours.
