Case with No Slide Out Keyboard Feature

Where is this second mic hole? I looked in the back of my Droid and I don't see anything. :confused:


yeah.... i thought i was missing something about a second mic hole, but i just took a look and couldnt find anything. all i found was the little tiny slot under the back, menue home, and search buttons when the keyboard slider is closed. is that what ur refering to?
 
BTW... im glad 10 of you took the leap and paid, i am super interested but would love to see some feedback from some other members B4 i commit.

That whole "under" the home-keys (on the chin/lip) is the primary mic (i.e. the voice mic). The second mic is easily overlooked (as Seidio found out). If look at your phone on the back side, just below and to the right (towards center) of the mic plug there is a small.... indention (for lack of a better word). That is the input for the second mic. Many people (myself included) that complain about "echoing" in calls are covering this in some fashion (I was covering it, unknowningly with my finger before I got the case that slightly changed how I held the phone, NO more echo). As I mentioned, the early Seidio cases forgot to include this whole and the call quality was effected. A lot of people overlook it which is why I am/was concerned that these custom cases do not. I will not be happy if I have to dremel a $60 case.

Thanks for posting that, although we take all slots/holes/buttons into thought when making the case the picture is a good informative for others. We will have a cut out for that hole as well as all of the other ones, no doubt about it :).
 
that HUGE hole is in the case. you can hardly even see the indent in the phone I would have NEVER know it was there unless it was pointed out to me.

geeze, i would have never ever seen that "indent", thanks for the pic!
 
Hmmm debating on getting one of these cases, because I never use the slideout keyboard and am sick of waiting for an Epik case. Those were the best cases for a BB.

Let me know your decision, the deadline for this first batch for payments is January 29th Friday at 2:00 PM Central. We will be making cases for various BB phones as well such as the storm, curve, etc.
 
Thanks for the info and great pics of the second mic location on the Droid. I just checked my OEM hard/rubber case, and no big surprise the hole is covered by my case. :(

Thats unfortunate, however i'm sure once you have this case you'll never want to put another mediocre case on there :).

Just a reminder to anyone still interested in this case, the deadline for this first buy is Friday January 29th (tomorrow) at 2:00 PM Central time.
I know I have about 4 more people who i'm still waiting for payments on so lets get those in!
