Guest teacake Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 I do not see any protective cases yet available for the G300?. There are a few leather jobs from US and a sock or two. Has anybody seen any yet. The phones are a wee bit on the slippy side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest teacake Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 the only thing i have seen thats not leather.... http://www.ebay.co.u...#ht_2142wt_1163 Yep seen a few of these sock type cases about. I am after a clip on hardshell or even a silicone. A nice skeleton shell to protect main edges and give a bit of grip. I find the sock or pouch type are not that easy to use when phone rings bit i suppose it is personal preference. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Davidoff59 Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Please don't leave your phone lying on the dash. If it goes flying, your automatic reaction is to try and save it. Also where is it going to go in an accident, hurling around the inside of the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest putbinoot Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Yeah it is a slippery sucker, I think it will take a couple of weeks or so for some case makers to start production, that's what happened with the orange monte carlo anyway.

You could use this for anything from a ZTE Blade to a Samsung Galaxy S2, perfect for people like me who change phones a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DiscoFred78 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 I ordered this... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/220994741028?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Don't know if it is any good yet, but like the idea of the microfibre on the inside to help clean the screen.

Guest MrPuddington Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 I do not see any protective cases yet available for the G300?. There are a few leather jobs from US and a sock or two. Has anybody seen any yet. The phones are a wee bit on the slippy side. When the SF came out, it took 3 months before decent protective cases were available. I just went with one for a different phone that happened to fit, and a few cut outs fixed the different connector positions. Is there any phone with the same dimensions? I think the 4" diagonal is a new development, so it may not be that easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jt! Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 just had a brief look at other phones on gsm arena. The nexus one and htc desire are the closest size i have found. I wonder if cases for either of these phones can be bodged to work with the ascend http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_ascend_g300-4594.php http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_google_nexus_one-3069.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also where is it going to go in an accident, hurling around the inside of the car mine went flying twice. But our car has a slope that goes the opposite way due to the stereos display been there. But I pulled away abit quick. But I did not try to catch it. I even laughed the second time it happened.

Guest goodfella123 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) My local poundland sells screen protectors for the iphone 3. Would they be big enough? I have a faux leather pouch i bought off ebay for the orange san francisco which is a really tight fit but it does the job.

Guest FlatPackPete Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 My local poundland sells screen protectors for the iphone 3. Would they be big enough? No. The G300's screen is slightly wider, the cut-out for the speaker is in the wrong place and there's a hole for the iphone home button that is uncannily right where the home button is on the G300 I wouldn't put one of these screen protectors on an iphone, they really are cheap materials, but what would you expect for 2 for £1?

Guest caballeropl Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 I personally prefer regular slip-in pouches. Saved my phone a few times. At the moment I use a mofi one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/High-Quality-Mofi-Google-Nexus-S-Case-Pouch-UK-BLACK-/360329204832?pt=UK_MobilePhones_MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item53e54b5460 They're great quality.

Guest FlatPackPete Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Goodfella you smart little cookie! Dug out a old iphone 3G rubberised cover and it fits....sorta. OK this phone is larger than an iPhone, but not by much, so the hard cases won't work the the poundland rubber one have enough stretch to cover. Main points of order are:- The bottom of the phone is exposed (as that's where Apples stupid connector goes)The volume buttons seem in the right placeThe headphone hole is slightly off (my headphones work fine but I think its because the rubber on my case is not too thick)The power button is covered and you can tell the case is pressing on it now and again.The camera lens is completely covered and will need a new hole cut out. Here's some rubbish pics to prove it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Patrick73 Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I've got an old Samsung galaxy ace silicon case and that goes on. Seem ok, just a pain cutting out the bits for camera and mics and speaker and volume. Also got a old Motorola atrix case which is a what I call jelly case. And that fits very nice. But cuts outs again a pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
