Seidio Shipping New Accessories

[snuggles]

Unfortunately, the SURFACE doesn't fit with the OEM extended battery but we are considering making a case for it.

Will the ACTIVE

Since you're taking requests, put me down as a definite customer for the Rugged + Surface combination you previously offered for other phones. I was told by email that you don't have plans for that currently, but I loved the combination with my Incredible. I take my phone to some rough areas (backpacking & hiking) and the Rugged case provided exceptional protection (dropped it a few times on hard granite and other rock).

 

[seidioseidio]

Any idea when the extended battery will be available?

I'm sorry, I don't have an ETA yet but I'll be sure to post when there is more information.

Thanks for your request! We are working on a CONVERT (formerly known as Rugged) but I don't have an ETA at this time!

How much thickness (mm) does the SURFACE case add to the phone?

 

[TrumpetMan]

Can't wait for the colored cases to arrive for the Nexus. I have a blue one on my Dinc and I like it a lot.

 

[Droid Ninja]

Please make a SURFACE case that will accomidate the extended battery

 

[seidioseidio]

The SURFACE in Black is back in stock and the case adds about 1.5mm to your device.

We have a new blue available for the Galaxy Nexus. It will be available for the SURFACE and ACTIVE this week!

I've been told that we will be producing an extended case for the OEM battery, but we don't have an ETA yet. Thanks for all the requests!

 

[Bandit390]

What about an Active with NO kickstand and works with the oem extended battery?

personally i think investing time and money into the extended case for the oem extended battery is a waste for seidio. most people can get the standard cases to work with the oem extended battery anyway.

it would be appreciated if seidio could use that time and money to develop a better dock than the one currently available for the nexus. thanks.

 

[daygo718]

Seidio, I don't really need/want a case, but would like a holster. Any plans on making a holster to fit the phone without a case?

Totally disagree. Using the current Surface with the extended battery causes too much tension.

My dream combination would be a Rugged combo that works with both the standard and extended batteries.

Have you tried the extended battery with the standard battery door? Works for me and a few people have confirmed it works for them as well. In my situation I had to make a small change to get the surface case to fit. A few other standard cases fit with the extended battery too, there's a thread around here on that.

Haven't ordered the Surface yet because I'm waiting on a Surface/Rugged combo, but I've read where other phones have had their screen ruined when people have tried to shove an extended battery into a stock cover.

Can you make an extended battery without the NFC items inside? I'd rather have a greater capacity.

 

[seidioseidio]

I'll try to respond in one post to keep the thread cleaner!

Our ACTIVE cases without kickstands were released yesterday, but like our ACTIVE with kickstand cases, we don't recommend using the OEM extended battery with the ACTIVE's.

Whiskeyguy, you can always order the SURFACE now and the CONVERT Add-on Kit later.

We've been getting requests for a Spring-Clip Holster for non-cased devices, so I will pass yours along too!

We haven't determined if the battery will have NFC or not, but will pass your request along!

don't listen to this guy. all nexus batteries should/need NFC support

 

[jamor]

SeidioSeidio, have your falsely advertised batteries been addressed yet?

wow. i have a few posts in those threads, but can't we just leave them in the forums where they were started? no need to drag this thread down with that stuff.

 

[Jedi54]

I too would LOVE a Surface case that fits with the OEM extended battery.
I've owned Seidio cases for my last 3 phones and already ordered one for a G Nexus that I don't yet own. How's that for commitment???

I'll try and 'make it work' but I would also buy one that is designed for that battery if you release it. thanks.

 

[Bandit390]

Any news on an Active case that works with the OEM extended battery?

Definitely this^

I'm runnin an Otterbox Defender right now....it is pretty big....but I am kinda clutsy sometimes.......and Otterbox's warranty is great with GREAT customer service.

But I do like seidio's clips

 

[ThEoRy36O]

Surface or active case that fits the extended battery AND works in a car dock using the 3 prong connector so I don't have to plug and unplug 2 wires every time I use it.

 

[mckeller]

Any upcoming coupons?
