What case do you use?

I'm looking at this case too. Does it slip off easily? I'm afraid of it just coming off in my pocket.
It's easy to remove for putting the phone into a dock, but once it's on the phone, it's a very snug fit. I have two of them myself (one solid black, one smoke diamond pattern). In fact, if you have the standard, multimedia, or laptop docks, there's a plate you can remove that will allow you to keep this case on while using it in the docks. Unfortunately, the exception is the car dock, which of course is the one I use the most. :( Fortunately, as I said, the case is not difficult to remove.

like was said, it's a very snug fit while it's on. but it can be removed with ease if needed. there's enough lip on the top side so if it drops, it doesn't land on the glass. I like it quite a bit actually. I think the only thing I don't like about it is that it has an argyle texture on the inside of it that I wish was on the outside. But I'd definitely recommend it to others.

That's fine for the standard, multimedia, and laptop docks, but car dock users are still out of luck because the dock mount is in the way. :( That's why I'm sticking with my TPU case, which I can leave on while in the other docks (after taking out the small, removable plates around the connectors) and easily remove for use in the car dock.

your tpu dock works with car, hdmi and lapdock? i tried using a tpu but i didnt work with any of the docks even with the plate off. the only case that i got to work with the plates off is the rugged battery cover.

My TPU works with the standard, multimedia, and lapdocks with the plates off; I still have to take it off to use it with the car dock. (I don't know of any case that works with the car dock, at least without hacking it up to force it to fit.) Fortunately, it's flexible enough that it takes only a few seconds to pop off and snap back on. For what it's worth, this is the TPU case I'm using:

Had the defender. Now have a speck candyshell. One thing to know about the otterbox is that as good as it is as keeping stuff out is, it is just as good at keeping stuff in. Moisture dirt etc. So open it up once every week or two. Especially after the beach cuz sand can beat up a screen easy

When i bought my phone it came with the Otterbox Commuter case. It's a decent case, i've dropped the phone a few times and it protected it just fine.

The Atrix is such a durable phone, and I love the feel of it in my hand, so I'm never going to put a case on it. I've dropped mine countless times (three from above waist on to concrete!) and apart from the back cover (which is a little scratched up), I only have one physical defect (a tiny bit of paint is missing from the top right of the front).

I <3 MA ATRIX :3
