I am about 3 weeks into having my One, and I am in love with this phone. For the first time, I'd like to get more than one case so I can occasionally switch up. In this instance, I am finding a lot of potentially awesome cases.

Nillkin Thin Side Flip Leather Cover Case

And for sheer protection, I'm thinking an Otterbox?
Any opinions? Thanks!

To be honest, when people refer to the ONE as a "sexy" phone it is typically because of the look and feel of the aluminum build. Put a case on it and that is gone LOL and it like most other phones is physically just "another phone". I have an S4 and it is in an Otterbox, it is such a slim sleek phone but I do lose that when it is in the case that it is in but I do have peace of mind in knowing it is protected. I purchased a second case similar to the last one you posted a photo of but in black for my white S4. I love that case but no question that the Otterbox protects best.

Therein lies the dilemma: to sheath the sword or let it hang free. On account of being so sexy-fine, I'm content with hiding it away for the sake of protecting it. ;) Def going with an Otterbox for day-to-day commuting. For special occasions, though, I'm gonna see what these leather cases have to offer. The top one looks the best, imo, but I hate how the screen cover can't be folded back. It just hangs.
 
I literally just received my Otterbox Commuter and although it seems ugly at first, after 5 mums I already like it. Knowing that I can put in my pocket and quickly pull it out without the worry of breaking it is awesome.

I've tried several cases - the Commuter, the Speck Candyshell Grip, the Incipio Dualpro. All were good, but there were things I didn't like. The Commuter just felt too bulky, the Incipio was too bulky and the rubber portions that wrap around to the screen came too close to the edge of the screen and it was nearly impossible to do things near the edge like moving an app from screen to screen. The Speck I liked the best, but it showed scratches galore, even after only using it for a week (I had the black one, so scratches are more apparent than if I possibly had a white one).

Then I found what is quite possibly my favorite case I've ever had on any device - the UAG (Urban Armor Gear). It's extremely lightweight, not too bulky but yet has extra cushion around the corners to protect it in case of bumps/falls. I really, really like this case a lot. It comes in four colors - white, blue, black and orange.

Otterbox is one of the worst cases to ever put on a phone! Sure if you need the protection go for it but it's ugly at best.

I couldn't disagree more. I think it's a fantastic case and does what it set out to do. One of the ugliest? Maybe. Worst? No way!

Poetic atmosphere, very thin, doesn't take away from the phone nut protects it from scratching. Not a real protecting case if you're hard on your phones.
 
I alternate between the clear CruzerLite and the Seidio Surface w/ Kickstand cases. The CruzerLite manages to protect the phone while maintaining the sleek profile of the phone.
 
Just got my leather Spigen. The flap is mildly inconvenient, but it's very nice overall. Seems very protective, not terribly bulky, and it's very aesthetically pleasing. Def a great dress up case. Time to pick a daily driver...
