Accessories got a few goodies for the X

[deekum1627]

went to verizon to order my wifes droid x and they had new cases which fit awesome and feel like there is no case on teh phone so it still nice and slim. i also picked up the dock station for the X didnt try it yet, has anyone tried it?

I bought the screen protectors and the shell holster combo looking at the car dock not sure on that yet though.

 

[deekum1627]

i got the home dock

I've got the desk dock, and I'm loving it. It displays really nicely next to my bed. Easy to push a button and get my weather update in the morning.

I nabbed the Verizon 3 pack screen protectors, and they suck. Hard.

I'd really like to get a decent screen protector though. Thought about going with Zagg's Invisible Shield again (have a full body one on my Zune 80, skipped it for my Zune HD) but not really sure I like the "feel" and "texture" of it for a phone.

I picked up the Shell/Hoster Combo, Multimedia Station, Nav Dock, and HDMI cable.

My only gripe is with the Media dock, having two plugs, micro usb and hdmi, you have to fiddle with the phone to get it to slide down properly, a little annoying but otherwise a very nice design

I purchased that case on launch day, however I just took it back today because the cutout on the lower back for the speaker is too big. It's a big rectangle. My phone was getting scratched up in that area, with such a large opening. I replaced it with the Amzer, which is just as thin, but only has a slit and small hole opening in that area.

I got the Verizon Car bundle and found a 10% off coupon on the web ;^). I love the Car doc. It gives ma somewhere to put my phone and lets me see if I have an in coming call when the stereo is up. It brings up a separate menu however it won't bring up the lock so you have to leave it off to use. I felt with the Google maps it made more sense than the home doc. I also got screen covers and a TPU case off ebay for like $8 and i'm really happy with them as well.

BestSkinsEver finally have a DX full skin for only 5.99 + 2.00 shipping. Can't beat the price and it's the same stuff Zagg uses. At that price if you don't like it it's not a big deal to just pull it off and forget it.

If anyone is getting the Docks make sure you get a case you can remove easily, like the one above.

 

[deekum1627]

thats the only thing that kinda stinks if you have to remove the case everynight but it just pops right off so no biggie i guess

Remove the weather widget (trash it) and add it back, that worked for me.

 

[deekum1627]

yup i got it to work thanks

The Home Dock doesn't come with an HDMI cable does it?

Yeah but docks that are universal usally suck IMO. I had the nice leather case with kick stand but returned it because it was too hard to remove. The one I have now just pops off.

No, even though they said it would be bundled with it at the release party. Guess someone figured they make more selling it separately. Personally I think it should have come with it since it's called the Multimedia Dock it should have what you need to actually make it multimedia capable.

I saw the cable at Best Buy yesterday and they wanted 39.99 Friggen RIPOFF!!!

 

[deekum1627]

ya my new case pops right off. and it should come with hdmi i still have to get it there gotta be an online place that is a little cheaper
