Got mine today. Good feel and fit. Definitely worth paying the low price. Not worth the 30 bucks imo. However, I do like it better than my incipio dual pro.

Are you a prince? You send a mass email to thousands of people asking them to western union money order to a 3rd party who will then buy you the cases in exchange for half of your princely inheritance to the email recipients... :good:

I recently received my Dropsuit and do like it. The price was definitely worth it ;)

While I can agree a little that it it is not super snug it definitely is not slipping off in any way. I like that it is not overly bulky and provides good grip on the sides

Got mine yesterday, and I've got to say for the price this is fantastic. I typically don't like cases, and so I may ultimately go back to a naked phone, but this is real slim and has a nice feel to it.

No it isn't super snug, but definitely won't be coming off, and the buttons all feel good when you press them (volume + power). I can open and close my charge door easily too.

Added bonus: The case lets the phone sit slightly higher when on solid surfaces, which both protects the camera lens and keeps the speaker from being muffled by the surface you set it on.

I like that as well.

One very minor downside for me is if I put the phone in my pocket upside down, it has a much greater tendency for the power button to wake the phone up than when naked as the cover makes it more sensitive. Also I missed having the rear notification led, so I easily drilled a hole for that. I think a leather punch would work for that purpose quite well, but I didn't find mine until after I made the hole.

I had a "too sensitive" power button as well. I took an exacto knife and shaved the power button "plunger" off of the inside of the case. Now it all works perfectly. The power button is not as sensitive as it was and works just fine when depressed with the case on. YMMV

I thought this was a great place to post about not 1 but 2 accidents that my phone survived thanks to this case. I have had it on my phone since November.

Accident 1 - This past spring I was in Mexico walking down a cobblestone road. It was a million degrees and I was sweating. I had the phone in my hand. I caught my toe on the edge of a cobblestone and watched in horror as my phone launched a good 8-9 feet in the air. It then tumbled down a freakin concrete stairwell. When I picked up my DNA, it was laying screen-side down. I sh*t you not.... there was not a scratch on the phone or case.

Accident 2- Last night I managed to wipe out on my bike. I was cutting a corner at about 20 mph and my tire caught some gravel. My DNA was mounted on my bike. I jumped off the bike so that I would not eat pavement. My bike flipped twice and skidded to a stop on the pavement. I found my DNA under the bike. Again it was face down. I quickly grabbed it for inspection. Not a scratch to be found. My bike and I have quite a bit of road-rash, but my DNA still looks brand new.

So..... I kinda recommend this case (just a little bit)

Yeah, I've noticed the same thing. I actually pocket dialed someone this weekend for the first time ever. Definitely something to be aware of.

Got my case today. Thanks OP for the great find. Will have to find a way to do a hole for that back LED without making the case look like crap. Fits snug in my case since I also bought the full body XtremeGuard.

With the body glove on, you can't even tell there is a screen protector on.

I think a leather punch, the kind that has the rotating head for different hole sizes should work. I used a brad point drill bit. This is the sort that has a small point on the end. I did have to clean the edges up a little, a countersink spun by hand might do the trick as well. The hole I made isn't OEM quality, but you can't tell until you get really close.

I will just find a metal rod the size of the led light and heat it up and pierce right through. I think that will be clean. I will most likely have some overflow burnt plastic, that I can always just shave off carefully with a rubber blade. The part that is the most dreadful is the exact location of the LED. I just don't want to drill the hole in the wrong place.

The inside of the case has that hexagon pattern, so I used the led to shine on the inside of it as I slid it on, to see where the light hit the pattern. Used a marker to mark the spot, checked the location again, then maybe 5 more times just to be sure :D before I made the hole.

I was not overly concerned considering the price of the case :D

    Just a heads up. I discovered it, just browsing the threads. I saw bodyglove had a case. i searched it, and directly from their site, the case is only $6.25 with free shipping :good:. Here's the link. http://www.bodyglovemobile.com/catalog/htc-droid-dna,122.htm
    I ordered 1, so I'll give my personal opinion after I receive it. I currently use the otterbox, but i hate the bulk. I figure for 6 bucks, I'll try it.

    COUPON ODES STILL WORK THANKS NIMRODSV AND BIGJEW92. They have to be entered in all caps. BGMAF15 15% BGMPAY25 25%. You can only use 1. I just tried them both.

    also, use coupon code BGMAF15 and get an extra 15% off so the total comes to $5.76 with free shipping! woohoo

    Use BGMPAY25 to get 25% :)
    Comes outs 4.69$
