Lumia 822 Cases

[dale_cowboy]

I have the OtterBox but I am a person who does want more bulk. I do understand that not all do, though. I did contact speck, and ask them if they if they had any plans, and they said no, but that the more people they hear from can affect their plans. They have some fine looking cases for the 920.... Drop them a line if you like their Candy Shell cases. ;-)

Rich,

Been thinking of getting an Otterbox.

What do you think of it, besides the bulk?

Thanks,
Cowboy

I got the Otterbox day after I got my phone about 3 weeks ago. I also appreciate the bulk, but I also like the grippiness it adds. And the built-in screen protector, which I originally thought would be a hindrance, is very functional and effective. Yes, it's harder to press all the buttons, but no more accidental camera activations either!

The other day, phone fell out of my pocket and skidded across the pavement...face down! But not as much as a scratch.

It's not for everyone, but if you get it from a Verizon store, you can probably return it if it's not for you.

See my post under the "screen protector for gorilla glass2". Those mall people want to charge you a fortune for those things.

I liked my phone naked but tried out the Verizon case last night while my wife was looking for a case for her new phone. It was less than $20 and fits around the phone real nice. Got the black case for my black phone and it doesnt take away from the styling at all.

I like the otterbox for the protection and for the grippiness as scolab said, and I've dropped my phone on the pavement a number of times, and there's not a mark on it - or the case, at all. Not at all. I do have to say that the reason it's been dropped on the pavement was because of the belt clip of the otterbox - it comes off pretty easy, and I tried with the rotating belt clip to carry it in different rotation positions, and as it turns out, carrying it horizontally with the curved clips down is the only way it doesn't fall off easily getting in and out of the car, for me, which isn't my favorite way as far as how I have to clip it on and off with my hand, but I'm getting used to it. Overall, I LOVE the protection, and I'm satisfied with the belt clip now that I've found a way to keep it from falling off. I think the engineers could have done better in that area, though.

Unusually for me, I've dropped this phone a few times already so I broke down and got a case for it. I went with the High Gloss Silicone Cover from the Verizon store. I gotta admit that I kinda like it. It's flexible and thin, which is the best part since it doesn't add too much bulk. It fits nice and tight too. A keeper I think.
