Otterbox announced cases for the One.
And here are they:

Definitely getting one for my One when i get mine. I hope they release more colors before the launch though.
Have had good experiences from Otterbox cases since my HTC Touch HD and HD2, still going strong, and saved my immortal HD2 many times.

Haven't tried other companies yet since Otterbox hasn't failed to protect any of my devices.

Sweet! If I wind up getting the HTC One, which is very likely, I will most definitely purchase a Defender case for it.

Hopefully Otterbox has fixed the problems that the Galaxy S III Defender case had for the One.

I'll probably get the commuter case for mine. I had the defender on the HTC Evo LTE and the build quality of the belt clip was terrible. The clip that held the phone in the holster kept breaking off, I had it replaced twice and each of the replacements broke. It also happened to 3 other people that I know. I wish they would be like Seido and put a hinge in the clip. I might just get a TPU case for daily use, and an otter box for situations that call for it.

I've not used a case for my phone in the past 6 months, I just make sure my pockets are clear of shrapnel so nothing gets scratched.

Although with the HTC One it does look very scratchable. Think I may have to find a minimalist one closer to the time.

Just ordered white model of One and probably going with otterbox commuter. Defender would be nice too but its too bulky for day to day use.

I'm thinking of either the CruzerLite, the double dip case, or the Defender from Otterbox.

Then there's the chance a company like Trident will make a case. I usually like their cases.

I like the Commuter case in glacier. That one looks very nice.

I'm curious to know if these and other cases will keep in mind that the infrared blaster is located in the power key?

Looks like on the Commuter case, the power button is not covered; just a blank hole so no need to worry.

I really do like the Commuter glacier case, but I find I never drop my phone until I put a case on it.. I guess I tend to let my guard down when I falsely believe my case will protect my phone.. That is after all how I got my One X+, dropped my Inspire and watched as the screen shattered on cement. Thankfully though my otterbox case survived the ordeal perfectly fine while also protecting the back of the device... :p

...And very very big, isn't it ? Know that It's important to protect this jewell, but...we paid a lot to finally hide it...

Guys which do you prefer? Defender or commuter case for the HTC One?

I like how the defender case cover's the front portion of the device but I am having doubts about how it is made for HTC One because of the 2 big speakers(top & bottom), front camera & the sensors.

Looking good, I'll be taking the Commuter one (only because he's the lightest one :D). I have this case on my SGSII and he is good.

    Has anyone found any stores that have them in stock? I've checked all my local stores I can think of (best buy, frys, etc). I ordered online from otterbox with the discount but it still hasn't shipped so I may have to cancel it and find a local as I doubt it will arrive in time.

    My local AT&T store has the Defender in stock as well as a couple variations on the Speck cases. Full MSRP plus a nickel though ($50).
