Accessories for the HTC Droid Eris

[dave.helm]

Yeah I am totally getting one of these for my desk... This'll be great. Thanks!

Too bad it doesn't have some small speakers on the base to play music...

I received my screenguardz HD screen covers today and I am pleased with this product. The covers were easy to apply (no liquids), went on without bubbles and feels slick on the screen (no appreciable difference in touch screen sensitivity). The edges have not completely "set" as of this time so hopefully that will change soon. This product is meant to last 6-12 months so it will definitely be worth the 11 bucks if I get a year out each (2 per pack).

This case arrived today, and I must say I love it! Its fantastic. It has a nice "feel" to it (its not "grabby" like silicon cases, ie: easy to get in and out of your pocket) -- its a nice hybrid of hard shell and soft case. Does not add a ton of "girth" to the phone, which is good. Overall extremely pleased with this $10.00 purchase!

If anyone is interested, just search eBay for item #300367353777.

I can tell you one that I hated. The Zagg shield was just awful to the touch. It actually made it harder to use the touchscreen.

I want a desktop charger that can also charge a spare battery.

i posted this on another thread, no response yet. What do you think of this cradle charger?

I'm hoping the Seidio dock fits the Eris, but I was told it wouldn't.

Please prove me wrong...

I would get the hero cradle, that one looks like it had a good chance of not working.

 

[ryanc2]

I was originally looking at the Seidio cradle listed as for the Hero. I was told by the vendor that it was not compatible with the Eris. However, it is listed now on Sedio's website under the Eris accessory page - but backordered.

Wish it had a battery compartment.

I got a black rubberized skin for my phone from eBay for only $9.00. Here's the link: BLACK SKIN RUBBER CASE FOR VERIZON HTC ERIS DROID 6200 - eBay (item 220510183426 end time Dec-13-09 12:27:09 PST)

Great seller, super fast shipping too. It's not too rubbery feeling either and it fits perfect.

Not sure whether to get the silicone case or that harder one. Also, has anyone found a really good anti-glare screen protector yet? I have one on my ipod touch that's great because even though it does take away some of the "pop" from the screen, it get's rid of glare and fingerprints, and has less resistance than the regular screen does at times.

Which holster is it? I have three of those for the 8330 around the house.

Can anyone state whether the case with holster that a few have shown and purchased will swivel while on belt? It doesn't say on the site. Without this, it wouldn't really work too well when you sit down or get in the car.

I'm still using my case for my Omnia. The size fits nice, just covering the camera on the back. This was a very nice 'faux-leather' case with a front cover that snapped on, and a separate small belt clip that you could snap the case onto. Then it would swivel and lock in place. Very nice. I may just 'alter' the hole on the back for the camera if I can't find anything better.

And I'm also still very interested in hearing from anyone who has a very good experience with a screen protector. What brand and where to purchase?

I got a Zagg, but haven't installed it after reading from some folks that it isn't completely clear (decreases clarity and contrast a bit on the screen), and it has a bit of a texture to it that would make swiping/sliding your fingers more difficult.

If you are talking about this one above, it does swivel/rotate while on your belt. I have it and its one of the best holsters I owned so far... And it looks cool.

I second that. I just got one today, same case, different seller. It's really nice. Fits all the cutouts great, sleek, and feels great in my hand. The phone feels much less "slippy" now. I like it a lot.

Yeah after using mine for a day or two the only thing I don't like about the case is that it covers the volume rocker instead of having a cutout for it... its slightly a little difficult to change the volume. Not terrible, but could be better. Would have preferred a cutout area for access to the rocker -- but other than that, yes, like this case a lot.

I did see that some of the two-part snap-together style hard cases were starting to show up on eBay as well in the past couple days. Inexpensive as well, for those who prefer that style of case.

I see there is a lot of screen protectors on ebay.I purchased a set at the verizon store when i had the droid and they sucked.always can see fingerprints and greasy residue from fingers(yes i'm italian). Any advice on which ones to get.Also, whats a good case to get from ebay?

 

[c64]

i picked up the verizon rubber silicone case which i think is a better solution for this phone, because i figure i will be getting an extra battery and its a lot easier taking off a rubber cover then a snap cover.

Any input on my previous post about ebay screen protectors would be appreciated

How good a fit is the silicone case? How much was it? And are there cutouts for the volume buttons or are they covered?

fits good, $14.99. i guess you probably could get it cheaper online, but i didn't mine because i had a credit. it doesn't have cut outs for volume, but there raised and i don't have a problem with it.
