Seidio Case

I have mine and love it, no grips once so ever about the case, however I did purchase the Combo (Case & Holster) and was lead to believe by the description that both were made of the signature rubbery soft-touch material. But when I got it, the holster was just this plain ole plastic.

I chatted with them about this, and was told that the Holsters for the Droid will not have the signature Soft-touch material, and that it was an error on their part with regards to the description on their site.

And would you believe during our session, they had already changed the description and sent me a return label, its going back tomorrow (the holster that is); I Luv the case and I think keeping it in my pocket is safer anyway.

Is that just the holster that fits the case or is it for both holster, because I was thinking about just buying the holster

I had bought JUST a holster in the past for my old BB Storm. It basically holds the bare phone. It was more expensive than other holsters, but it was definitely quality-designed.

I just bought one for my new Droid because even though the Verizon holster does the job - you can tell it isn't made to exacting specifications. The Verizon holster takes a bit of pressure to snap the phone into it. (Mainly because of the hard edges on the clip). The Seido is more rounded, thus the phone will easily slip into the holster.

One note about the Seidio holster though - on my Storm it DID put wear marks in the body at the bottom AND the sides of the Storm. This was probably from constantly putting the phone in and out of the holster.
On the Storm I DIDN'T have a full body plastic protector. It was only on the screen.
My Droid has the full body Zagg, so I'll see if the Seidio holster pressure points are protected by the Zagg!

ok thanks I will be ordering one soon
 
Well I have one gripe about my case. It broke... Pulled it out of my pocket and had an odd amount of resistance sliding it. Then I also noticed that the corner was raised a little. What had happened was that a tab broke. So now I have a case that is not attacked completely. Only had it on the droid for a week or two. How is everyone else doing? Should I just order a second? Really liked the case.


But their customer service is bar none the best. (new case on the way.)

In response to my earlier post regarding shipping delays. I have been in contact with Seidio and they have givin us an update on our order.

Thank You SeidioSeidio!
 
This will probably be the first accessory I buy, very interested.

On a side note I bought the screen protectors straight over the phone from Dell and they were the type you had to cut yourself rather than being pre-shaped and sized for the Droid. What a complete dissapointment and waste of $10.
 
@ToThoseWithFlakingLetters...
I just got my blue Seidio case. W00t! Love it. But when I look at the letters on the back that many are complaining about they are raised up, same color as the rest of the case.
How is it flaking off? Has the design changed already?

On a side note I love the case...My only complaint is it doesn't automatically switch between red and blue depending on my mood. Oh that I had money to buy the red one too! ;)
 
I have a question for those of you who have a naked screen and the Seidio case. Do you find that dirt and dust build up at the spots where the case meets the screen? I ask because I like my naked screen but when I had my Curve and I took the case off there was a line of buildup. It comes right off but I don't like the idea. It is making me consider getting a screen protector.

TIA
 
cradle

Any news on when the cradle will be out? The item details and MSRP have been up on the website taunting me. Should I hold out to buy my case for when the cradle comes out and get a combo deal? Or should I just buy the case now? It would be nice if they could give a rough estimate for when the cradle will be released; days, weeks, months...

The worst game of all; the waiting game.
 
The origional case they sent me was damaged. one of the clips was bent and would not hold the top peice on right. so i called and they shipped me a replacement. the problem is... taht i like in an apartment and the replacement case was delivered, but it never made it to my door. I don't know if someone stole it form outside my door or they put it at the wrong door, but I NEVER GOT IT!! This was on the 10th. i called today and they told me i needed to fill out a claim form and they would look at it on Monday.... its gonna take them 6 days to look at a paper i faxed them with my address on it and a box checked Lost!!!! WTF! Since i don't have a case i dropped my cell and F'ed up the corner. I am soo pissed about this. they should have sent me anouther case or taken care of be a long time ago. I will most likely never buy from them again.

On a side note below is a pic of a friends case on my phone today. where the red circle is... the top part of the phone (screen side) seems to be lower down then the bottom half. So if you are looking at the pic exactly the top half is closer to me then the bottom is.

I really don't see how you dropping your phone is in any way their fault.
 
Yeah, and if someone stole it off your doorstep, how can you blame that on them? And threaten to not buy from them NE more? Plus...you dropping your phone isn't their fault either.
 
So i recieved my case and screenguard, and the case feels good. However if I were to be picky and OCD I can feel that the piece for the back of the phone isn't perfectly smooth and there are little bumps in some places, a few being right where my fingers are when typing. Also, the printed lettering arrived already coming off and a bit off center which kinda thows me off from liking the visual aesthetic as much.

Overall, as for how good of a case it is though, its fantastic. It feels a bit chunky in a you-know-your-phone-is-safe kind of way, but still nice (and not that the phone is that thin anyway). It does limit the top row of keys a bit, but I'll get used to it.


Have they ever made white cases? I think a white Innocase vs Droid's black would look pretty cool.

I did not say its their fault i dropped it, im just pissed they should sent anouther case sooner. and i am not 100% sure someone stole it. i just dont think it was delivered.
