Just got the Commuter case today and it fits and works perfectly!! Don't know why Otterbox said it wouldn't work.
HTC Desire Otterbox Fit Inspire??
- Thread starter TripperGetem
- Start date
To those with the Defender cases, Does it have a screen shield built in like the cases for the iPhone 3G(S) ?
Interesting, just checked OtterBox's website and they are sold out of the Desire HD Defender and Commuter cases. Seems as if everyone caught on even though they were telling the public it was not compatible with the Inspire 4G.
HTC inspire/desire HD
Check out Ottorbox website now, they acknowledge it is the same case, it is listed as inspire/desireHD. But it still shows sold out. I got one coming from Amazon.

The defender has the screen shield as well as the holster. It's an awesome case!
I found mine on eBay for $25 + $5 sh. I got it in about 4 days. Last I checked the buyer I got it from had one left. expressbuy123
I haven't had any issues with the flash, however, the flash on my Inspire made my pics yellow even w/out the case. I changed the saturation setting as low as it would go and it works perfect.
To those with the Defender case, can you comment on how much (if any) the screen protector affects the sensitivity of the touch screen? Additionally, I read on otterbox's facebook (I think) that the desire HD defender case partially covers a microphone on the back of the inspire - any comments on this?
Thanks!
Thanks!
The otterbox site now has the commuter in stock and listed under the Inspire 4g. Just ordered mine
thanks for the info. just got the inspire and was wondering if the desire hd case would fit. off to find a defender case now.
I've been using my Inspire 4G with the Desire HD Defender for about a week. Yes, the screen protector does decrease sensitivity, but it is still perfectly acceptable -- I adjusted to the "new feel" within a few minutes of installing the case.
I did see the post from Otterbox on their Facebook discussion page... perhaps more of us need to chime in before they actually take action? It does mention a microphone on the back... but I don't see where on the back of the phone there is a microphone. There is a tiny hole beside the flash, and that could be it, I suppose... but in any event, have had no problems with mine in the last week.
So does anyone know if this works with the Inspire? I don't see HD Commuter in the title, so I'm not sure. I guess I will see in a few days, I accidentally ordered it, I'm still not used to the phone name yet

i refuse to order the commuter case. i want that defender case. i had it on my 3gs, and it was amazing. now i want it on this phone. can't live without it.
I saw them on ebay under HTC Desire HD, being shipped from NY, USA. But the seller says they are not not intended to be used with the Inspire 4G. I think I will still get it, though I would rather get them from the store so that way I can return it if I don't like it, etc. Meh.

Won't work!! You ordered the wrong one, you need the case for Desire HD.
