I recommend you buy the bg case off amazon, and save over 50% off the retail stores. I love the look of the innocase but its an unforgiving design. Many people have had the top case fit issue and it seems they're doing nothing about it. They send out replacement tops which also fail to properly fit, probably because the actual production cost of the case is under $1. Higher price does not mean higher quality and seidio is proof of that. Although kudos to them making phone accessories that work with their case, however cheaply made they are.

Seidio Case
- Thread starter Dream
- Start date
does the bodyglove case have some cushion to it ? the innocase is hard plastic with a matte finish....not forgiving in case of a fall.

It appears to have some protective/cushioning value to it. far more than the innocase at any rate.

Seidio really needs to realize that they need to change the length of the clips on the top piece ( thee bottom ones that is) and cure all the fittment and replacement issues. I see this problem popping up more and more . I had this problem and went through 4 cases and still didn't fit
If seidio reads this tell your higher ups to think about changing the design. I tried to tell the customer service person this and they basicly told me tuff luck.

Yes, there's a velvet lining withing the case as well as a belt clip that can also work as a phone stand. The exterior of the case is a thin leather like material that gives it even more cushion. For the money, there's way more material and design that went into this case compared to the innocase. The bg case will make it the slightest bit more difficult to slide open the keyboard because the clips of the top case rub those on the bottom case. This does not cause any wear on the phone itself, only the case rubs itself. - that sounds wrong, but its true. This only makes the phone feel more solid and provides a crude solution for people who have loose sliders.
Body glove > innocase imho.
I can't say enough good things about it.

The only thin I don't like about it is how it carries the phone with the screen out. I was waiting on to see if BG would smarten up and change that around (i.e. offer a separate holster to use with it like Seidio goes) that's one of the reasons I ended up trying the Seidio combo.
I noticed that myself. The body glove solves that by making the edge of the top case near the keyboard slightly thinner meaning that the case doesn't hang over the keyboard as much as the innocase. Only issue with that is that the edge isn't securely clipped on like the otherside near the volume rocker is.
Btw I heard of people using the seidio holster with the body glove, that would be a great combination.

SWEET!!! That would be awesome, I'm going to order one from Amazon tonight I'll let you now if it works. The innocase holster (well, the clip-style) is really tight though).
Best of luck.

We should have an update for you all by the end of the this week. Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns!
I had a case like this (hard plastic sprayed with some rubbery paint) on my old LG, and I loved it. But, I'll wait.
At the mall nearest me is one of those cell phone accessories kiosks run by an Asian dude who is really on top of the latest accessories. Seidio isn't doing anything patented here, just taking advantage of the fact that they are the first kids on the block with this case. I'm sure he'll have some of these for sale soon for much less than the $30 Seidio is getting for them now.

Just got my black case today, lovin' it. Keyboard is a little tricky...but I don't have sausage fingers so it is a-okay with me.
Has a nice feel. Won't get stuck in the pocket, but also won't slip and slide. Like that it still has the small end bumps that kept the stock Droid from sliding around in the car just sitting on the center console.
Good fit. No loose corners. Really "snapped on"...impressive.
I might make some small adjustments to its finish here and there, but for the price, it is about right.
We'll see how it holds up in the long run.

Soft Silicon Cases
If anyone knows of a good soft silicon case to fit the droid and the slide out keyboard let me know, maybe a link or a picture. I have a type of silicon case but when it gets put on by snaping it snaps off really easy.
feel free to pm me
