Accessories Incipio Feather Case

Awesome, thanks! I'm going to get one for my Captivate (I loved it on my Atrix).

< $11 to my door, sweet.

Thanks for the great pic's,
I just picked one up and for those of you with a car dock, I am happy to report that it does fit in the dock with the case on!

The car dock comes with a removable spacer. Even with that removed to allow for more space the Feather case will barely make a connection with the Mini USB connector. BIGGEST concern though is that the top latch will not completely hook around the feather case. On a scale of 1-10 if it fits, I would have to give it a 2.
 
I am wondering what moto is going to do for cases. The feather is the thinest case I have seen and moto says their cases will work with the attachments. I have no idea how they will get that to work.
 
Bought a feather case last weekend. This is exactly the kind of case i like. Thin, lightweight and protects everything that needs protection.
Paid $24.95 at radioshack. Most i ever spent on a case. But i feel it's worth it.

can someone tell me exactly what part this removable spacer is? My cardock came with an insert that was already removed. Are you talking about the tiny little rectangular pad inside the bottom piece? (opposite side of the latch). I just got the basic Bell Mobility brand case which is pretty much about the same thickness as the Feather and I can barely use the cardock. I have to squeeze the hell out of it to make the connection, and the latch doesn't quite close all the way. sounds pretty much the same as what I hear happens with the Feather
 
got it, I'm still not happy with how these cases still make you push harder on the usb connector to make the cardock app come up though. that part still needs to be addressed somehow.
 
I've got this case and it's ok. I personally want something with a little more protection, however. First off, I wish it came with a screen protector that covered the full face instead of leaving the home row keys and the space above the speaker exposed. So I'm looking for one of those at this time, too. Also, I don't like how almost all of the top and bottom edges of the phone are exposed, maybe a reason but I don't see it. Other than making it 'feather light' or fit docks (which i hear don't well). Another little quirk is that dirt and grime gets into the edges in the little space btwn the edge of the screen protector and the case lip. So, for me, I'm just holding out til something better comes along... I really do want the full screen protected at least but I suck at cutting those customizable ones.
Not knocking it though, just explaining the little things I don't like and for those debating getting it that think it might be an issue. Otherwise, great feel and stays pretty clean...if only it would just surround all the edges :/

The invisible gadget guard works great. Its what I have on my phone. It covers the entire phone exept for this little cut out where the front camera is.
The only bad thing about it is you have to use some liquid to apply it. The best results are from using alcohol to apply it as it evaporates faster. Even then it takes a day or two for all the little liquid to dissipate
 
Love this case! My wife got her Atrix a week before I did and she bought the feather case and I fell in love. I usually buy Otter Box Commuter cases for my devices if available but the feather case is so sexy! I got mines :)
 
I love my Feather case. It blends in with the Atrix so well that it just feels like it's a part of the phone instead of a case. I like the rubberize material, makes it safer to hold without fearing that the phone will slip. I wish there it came in purple or red. They have freeshia online but not in any of the stores in Canada (that I was aware of). Only complaint I have is that it does get pretty grimmy since it's an oil magnent...and oil attracts dirt.

The screen protector SUCKS! Threw it out when I couldn't get the stupid air bubbles out :(
 
My feather case cracked at the thin part by the volume rocker. Only had it for about two weeks. Looking for suggestions on another thin case that is hopefully a little stronger.
 
I've had the feather case for about 2 weeks now and i love it.
Best mobile phone case i ever had. Like mentioned earlier, it just blends in with the phone so well. It doesn't look like you are carrying a brick with a phone inside...
 
I like the feather case only thing wish it offered a little more protection. I will have the Seidio case on Tuesday so we will see how it fits and if it fits the Atrix and keeps it slim and not bulky.
 
After reading this post I went and exchnaged my Otterbox Defender for the Incipio case. The Incipio case i sawesome, thank you very much for the heads up!
 
is it just me or does it seem like the little lip on the top left corner near the front facing camera not come up as high as the lip around the rest of the phone?
 
For me its about size. The impact makes the phone bulkyier then I like. Also from past experinces those style cases become lose over time and I get really annoyed by my finger stretching the side of the case every time my finger is near the edge of the phone.

Why do people like this Feather cover so much?
It doesn't offer almost any protection in case of drop!

I will most likely lose the Atrix before I drop it. So, that's not my main concern with a case. I want a case as minimalist as possible without being a skin (don't like the feeling). I also don't like the plastic casing of the Atrix, so I want something that will give me a good grip but don't add bulk. It also feels like the soft rubberized plastic that's standard on HTC phones. It doesn't collect lint like the Impact case. The Incipio gave me everything I look for in a case. Everyone has a reason why they prefer one case over the other ;)

I just bought this last week:

Motorola Atrix 4G Case Gloss Black FlexiSkin TPU Cover - eBay (item 260749492094 end time Apr-07-11 17:24:39 PDT)
I am not sure is they ship to Canada but I love this case better than the Feather one.
