I got mine from ebay too

I got ebay #220687867777

As above, it is a tight fit but the power button is the problem, likely all the same case from different sellers..

I superglued a tiny plastic fragment from a shampoo bottle lid under the cases button indentation and it's perfect. The smoke effect isn't so good where I put the glue but duh... its a solvent.


It came with a screen protector which was surprisingly good compared to the Zagg ones I have used before (and still have).

Total bargain

well after initial getting one off flea bay it came and did the job but was bulky and the power button was hard to operate

then read on here about some one who got a very good one and no power button issues, so i got the link and ordered one and i have to say its excellent
fits a lot better than the other one and far less bulky and the power button is no longer a problem

After seeing this I ordered one of these, and I can confirm it works well - much better than the previous case I had, where it was a real pain to press the power button. Really fast (free) delivery and only £3.49 - bargain!

Got a case-mate one today from carphone whore house :D it was a tenner with screen protector that I immediately threw away, as I don't see the need for a screen protector also it looked like it wouldn't fit that well. The case itself is pretty nice, I don't think it is silicone (maybe TPU) as it comes out of my pocket easily (you all know what I mean). It is very sleek and fits really well, power and volume buttons are easy to use so a win all round. Unfortunately it is not on either the CPW or the case-mate website yet (they had one type of case in stock and only one of that case in stock). Looking at the other case-mate cases I believe it is from their barely-there series.

That looks great. My wife is about to get a Desire HD, I'm used to flexishield cases (which I think is brilliant for my HD2) - is this as good as theirs?

Thanks.

The case you are discussing in here is the same one I posted about in this thread. The seller I got it from sells it for a little less (£2.75) but it is exactly the same one. I have to say I have no problems with it, it fits well, all the buttons and openings are well cut and I would recommend it to anyone. As for the power button, the inital HTC design is a pain but this case helps out to some degree, that said, it is still difficult to press at times.

Regards.

I bought 2 of these the other day I gave one my friend who has the HD as mine doesn't come till Monday. The case looks fine and does the job. There is a really smart looking case on Play.com coming out at the end if the month. These will do until then.
