    8X CaseOff!

    Presently using a glacier white Otterbox Commuter now since the Trident didn't work out. Same case I have come to expect from otterbox. No caveats whatsoever. Perfect for my lifestyle a defender for the weekend is probably in my future. At this point I gotta say The Otterbox Defender and...

    8X CaseOff!

    So I got my Trident Case and, well lets just say my phone is now a lovely blue/green tie die pretty much. I'm waiting to hear back from the engineers if this is Trident's fault or another instance of the dreaded 8X sponge coating.

    HTC: "Don't carry your phone in your jeans"

    There was some kind of impact at some point sadly. Not possible to be cracked before its opened. Just the nature of the glass. well technically the coating process. and the fact the case isn't put on by human hands so there is no room for error. So no chance it was a microfracture that just got...

    HTC: "Don't carry your phone in your jeans"

    I think we should continue to investigate the hardware revision possibility. What's yours gibbage? I am actually very impressed with the 8xs ability to avoid visible damage. I have 2 (one that I dropped a decent bit before I got a case and the worst part is a shiny area that you can hardly see...

    HTC: "Don't carry your phone in your jeans"

    My last phones were the HD2 (miss that phone) HD7 and now the 8X. All of my issues were broken screens and theft I have had 9 phones overall. But I have 3 8x's (long story) and have handled issues (warranty included) through my carrier and it has been pretty painless. I continue to update to...

    HTC: "Don't carry your phone in your jeans"

    there are sites that will do it for around $170 but HTC will fix it for $220 and u will have a device w a warranty. I'd suggest that route. Sent from my Windows Phone 8X by HTC using Board Express

    8X CaseOff!

    Yeah the Kraken is a bit excessive I think the aegis is nice looking case tho. Guess we will see when it comes in a few days from now. Kinda wish there was Gform case to choose from. Really wanna give one of those a try. Sent from my Windows Phone 8X by HTC using Board Express

    HTC: "Don't carry your phone in your jeans"

    Those of you with issues with your coating check out your about phone and post your "hardware revision" number. Maybe we can get to the bottom of this. Sent from my Windows Phone 8X by HTC using Board Express

    HTC: "Don't carry your phone in your jeans"

    Take 8x, remove sim tray, inspect, note that plastic is blue all the way through the polycarbonate just like a Nokia. Read the post above yours. 😉 Sent from my Windows Phone 8X by HTC using Board Express

    how durable is the windows phone 8x?

    I can verify that it can certainly handle being sat on repeatedly which I continued to do without my cracks getting worse. And it was dropped a few times that I thought would surely do it.and it was fine. Only hitting that weak spot did it in.buy a case for peace of mind but I would say...

    HTC: "Don't carry your phone in your jeans"

    Its the rubberized coating absorbing the ink from your jeans not the finish coming off. The plastic itself is blue not painted. Sent from my Windows Phone 8X by HTC using Board Express

    The screen quality on the 8x more than makes up for the smaller size imho. Sent from my Windows Phone 8X by HTC using Board Express

    8X CaseOff!

    The sale ends today I think and its 25% off so I'd hurry. Its supposed to be between a commuter and a defender so that is pretty much exactly what I had in mind. The black commuter is actually available but the white which looks waaay cooler isn't yet. And I can afford to break another phone...

    8X CaseOff!

    I know a girl with a 920 with that case and its not bad. Not going to be as protective as the ones I mentioned but good most most people probably. The phone itself seems pretty durable with the exception of that one weakspot around the edge of the screen and most cases will address that...

    8X CaseOff!

    I know Incipio makes decent products but I need something with a higher protective factor than what they have to offer. I had 2 HD7's stolen last year (and a few broken) so Asurion isn't an option until August so protection is a MUST!The trident is on sale on their site right now till the 3rd I...

    8X CaseOff!

    I dropped my 8X on a tile floor and cracked the screen. That said I went ahead and ordered a Trident Aegis case for my new one. I have been using otterboxes for years over the course of many devices. In my opinion only recently has there been real competition. However the White/Gray Commuter I'm...
