I haven't checked this post for a while, not after seeing the sikai cases offered in ebay by a chinese seller in Hangzhou. After showing my wife she immediately said that we had to order since she didn't know how long it would take for it to reach the UK market! So much for that, Timeblast will be listing it soon! Guess we were too impatient. Anyway I ordered 2 cases, one Black and one Pink, i will let you guess who the pink one was for. Now I recieved the pack yesterday morning and have tried them on and frankly i think they look awesome. They cover the entire phone apart from the lcd screen and the colours both the black (the black is SOLID BLACK!!!) and the pink are very sharp and eye catching. My wife also loves her case since she finally gets the girly look that she wanted and the nillkin cases were too boyish in her eyes. The material is like faux leather patterned but obviously its a jelly case, in fact if you guys have a kindle and kindle cover, it looks like that pattern really. The pattern also whilst it looks exagerrated in the photo on ebay, it is actually not that noticeable atleast its not like it looks like it sticks out. It feels like its non slip since it has a sort grip that holds it in place well.

Now you guys are also wondering about the holes and what not, all the holes are in the correct places and aligned properly and the usb hole is also big enough to let you put the usb cable in and not have it fall out. According to the slip that came with the case, it is also dust repellent and so far it seems to be the case... might need to update later!

Now finally, between the nillkin case and this sikai case, i think that both cases are nice, the materials are different but both are quality cases, though it seems the sikai case is more substantial. I think the wider range of colours that are available for Sikai is a plus though since grey blue and white is just a tiny bit too restrictive.

If anyone has any questions feel free to ask! I will post some pictures up later.

Hi

Can you post a link to the chinese seller in Hangzhou?

Regards

Thanks for the review!

Why there is so little interest in these cases I have no idea.. They defiantly look better than the resin ones!

They seem to have a strange texture, even looks like there is a glow in the dark one :D

Gotta say that does look awesome!

I just bought one of these:

I didn't really want a transparent case but you can't argue with the price. It should tide me over until the black cases drop in price.

I'll let you guys know what it's like when I receive it.

Damn. That's even cheaper. It must be a new listing as I didn't see it a few hours ago.

Anyway, it's nice to see some much needed competition developing in the SF case market at last.

Just got a spare from Ebay - don't think these are Nilkin or branded but £1.57 including 1st recorded - got to worth a punt

Ordered the plain cheapie £1.57 one from ADVERTISING SPAM on Ebay - arrived today vg for the price, good fit and the holes are plenty big for the charger and camera.

Also ordered the Sikai in green - best case I've seen so far and I like the textured finish. It's more rubbery so very good grip. Again the holes are in the right places and big enough + I really like the buttons for the power and volume.

Did also order the Sofiz one from China - not arrived yet needless to say - but it'll need to be something else to be better than the Sikai one.

My cheapie came from prepay yesterday (next day) then the Nilkin came from HK 3 weeks :) - like I said not gonna get better value for money - the material seems a bit tougher and the holes better sized - especially the power cable hole......I just prefer the coloured nilkin to the clear but like I say will good as spare

Any chance one of you guys could take a picture of your phone in the case ?

I've just ordered one of those sofiz ones in pink. Hope it doesn't look crap with my grey phone, am wishing I had got the white version now, ho hum.

Am waiting for something like this to come out for the SF http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC-Wildfire-G8-Sili...nesCasesPouches but doubt it will :)

I'm waiting for a flip case of this style for the OSF http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GREEN-PU-LEATHER-FLI...=item5640e2e387

There are a few slip pouches and generic side folding ones but nothing like this that I have seen for the OSF. If anyone has experimented with a flip case for other phones that fit the OSF well then please share it with me :)
