Default Seidio Surface Case & Holster

The picture is up on the website fellas if you want to take a sneak peek. It looks like it won't be a squeaky version like the one for the MT4G since its a slider install. It should be available soon.

Default That's an expensive case!

Wow...$50 + shipping cost is a little expensive for me. I guess since it is a case+belt holster...

Yep the Surface&holster is pricey, but it has the kind of full protection I was looking for!

I just emailed seidio regarding both the active and surface case they are planning to release for the sensation soon since pictures are available. asked about how come only one of the 5 holes is uncovered and if the other holes being covered will affect performance. since according to htc the holes have a specific purpose. hopefully i will get back a sufficient answer and not some generic response.

but i am a little concerned to be spending all this money for a seidio case and 80% of the holes are covered and now I have a $8.95 TPU case and 0% of the holes are covered. does anyone else see something wrong with this picture?

also checked out otterbox website and they are releasing a commuter case for the sensation soon and they have the same setup with the same one uncovered hole above the camera. i guess maybe both seidio and otterbox know something about those holes that we don't know.

I agree. I think we are concerned because only 1 of the 5 holes are cut out for the device. We don't question the quality and protection but we are concerned about the holes. I too have a $3.99 TPU case with all the cutouts, I wonder if the Seidio will affect reception.

Ah yes forgot to mention, I have a Samsung captivate. Got this case because I can holster it with headphones plugged in. And I can adjust volume as well.

The Otterbox case pictures also covers up all the holes except 1.

I think they're using the molds from the European version of the Sensation, since those don't have as many holes as the USA version of Sensation.

My o2 UK sensation has 2 holes near cam, 1 near speaker and 2 at the bottom.

I bought a case mate and it covered all holes and I think it did affect reception
