FULL WHITE IMPACT HARD CASE COVER KICKSTAND MOTOROLA DROID RAZR MAXX ACCESSORY | eBay

love the kickstand :cool:
 
Looks a bit bulky for me since I keep my phone in my pocket. I do like the kickstand tho, miss that from my Thunderbolt!
 
There are obviously going to be different cases as time goes along, the eBay one is not bad for what it is, but it certainly does look like it would be easy to grip. On a phone this size, you have to watch that a bit, depending on how long your fingers are.

I put my phone in my pants pocket generally, so I'm after something that's slim. I've had good luck with Sena cases, so for now I'm using:

Sena Cases - Designer Leather Cases : Droid Razr Maxx Leather Cases for Motorola

It's a leather slip case, fits the Maxx pretty tightly, and covers all but the top of the phone. It takes a bit of time to wear in, but you just press on the bottom to get the phone out. The advantage of a case like this is that it protects the screen, so if you have something else in your pocket, like a bluetooth, you have less of a problem. One disadvantage is that it's a bit too tight initially, tends to interfere with the off-on button.

Vaja is not out yet with a Maxx case, takes them longer, but that's another very good leather case maker, once they tool up. I am not a huge fan of leather, but it does have certain advantages and applications where it works well (try and buy a non-leather belt sometime). But the drop protection (as long as you didn't drop it on the screen) for the silicone units is probably better. Otterbox, has a couple of Maxx cases out that are in the higher-protection (except again screen) category, and they have a darker color finish. I generally buy everything in black (not that I'm the anti-Apple or anything, but I live in New York, and it's pretty much the standard color, and at least everything matches :cool:). As to whether or not white is a girlie color, I'd say it really doesn't matter, go with what you like, if Arnold Schwarzenegger is carrying the phone (and even if it was pink), nobody is much going to say anything, and if the do, who cares anyway (did I say I'm from New York ;)). Or I think the case comes in black, anyway:

I see you updated it now! That case will work. :thumb:

To the OP, if you do decide to go with the Verizon case and you get an employee discount from Verizon you can get the case for the same price as Amazon. If you don't get a discount then the Amazon one is definitely the one to go with!
 
Odd that the cases for the razr are considerably less expensive than the cases for the maxx, and also a greater variety of cases and accessories for the non maxx. Wonder if the vendors were never expecting the maxx.

Yeah that very well may be the case. The OG Razr has been out a few months longer then the Maxx so I'm sure that plays a role too. But it is a little large of a price difference.

I have this case and am very happy with it. Love the kickstand, use it at my office desk all the time. And the case itself if pretty sturdy without unnecessary bulk. It is slimmer with the top and bottom being completely open. Very sharp, and still easy to get in and out of my pocket, unlike some that have stickier rubber or plastic and attract a ton of pocket dust.
 
I like the case/holster combo from Verizon. Its a decent case and it has a kickstand.

This is the one I've been rockin' since day one on Maxx, best bang for the buck IMO!

It has a nice none slippery grip, does not add much bulk when slipping into a pocket, the stand is great, since it allows you to stand the phone up or place it sideways, it wraps the front corners nicely to protect it from impact when dropped (saved me already when I droppe dit on a hard tile floor) and the belt holster it comes with allows for easy pop in/out.

As someone said, if you buy it from a VZ store, just ask them for the 15% discount (which all your friends got) and they will give it to you.
 
Update: After looking for a sturdy, slim case for weeks, I decided to buy the OEM case from Verizon. I am happy with it (so far) :)
