0 spacemanspiff Posted February 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 does anyone have one of those cases? i wonder how much bigger it makes the hd5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mercury_in_flames Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 I've been using the felt case and have a small dent in my hd5, trust me, get the case, even if it does make it chunkier. I use the felt one though because Ive got the rm-mc40elk remote and dont really mind about the dent its got, i keep it in my pocket neway.

0 spafles Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 currently using this one and I think it does a very good job at protecting my HD5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 spacemanspiff Posted February 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 any picture of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 spafles Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 It looks like the silicon case in the first post, but the controls are protected as well. The screen however is not ptotected, but you can buy a screen protector from the same site. The case does make the hd5 a bit chunkier, but it's very good protection against dropping it.

0 spacemanspiff Posted February 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 i may just buy one of those off ebay then since they go for like 6-7 bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Weaves_ Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 I have the gray Vaja case that is advertised on this sight. It does make the unit quite heavier, which I personally like. I will try to get pic's up later this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 spacemanspiff Posted February 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 that vaja case makes it the hd5 at least LOOK hugedunno if it actually is, plus its crazy expensivei guess its off to ebay i go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Stuge Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 spacemanspiffTell us what type of case do you want ?I mean to say plastic,Rubber(type),Silicone or leather ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 spacemanspiff Posted February 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 i wouldnt mind any of the plastic, rubber, or silicone onesi just one that doesnt make the mp3 player much bigger and lets you get to all the functions but protects it as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 zacharyzblewski Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 (edited) My girlfriend is using this one on her MD5 right now. She has the pink skin on her red player. With the case on it, you barely even notice a difference in size. And it does its job too.Nw-HD5 FlexiSkin Edited February 16, 2006 by zacharyzblewski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 zacharyzblewski Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 (edited) zacharyzblewski,hOW IS THE QUALITY OF THESE CASES?It seems to be holding up well and she's had it since christmas. Most of the time, she just tosses it into her purse. I haven't noticed any gouges or scratches on the skin.As far as the company goes, I like them a lot. I ordered this for her and got it UPS within a couple days. Edited February 16, 2006 by zacharyzblewski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 spacemanspiff Posted February 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 well i orderd the one i showed originally off ebay8 bucks shipped, will post impressions when i get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Richard_p Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Here is my case, the official sony/Proporta leather one. I think it looks stunning, gives the HD5 a real 'executive' look to it. The case actually doubles it's thickness and becomes even bulkier once the clip is on, so if size is an issue this is definetely not the case for you.I also have a silicone one, only problem with it that it seems to gather dust/hairs very easily (they will stick to it) but it is much kinder in terms of size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 spacemanspiff Posted February 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 well i recieved the silicon case, its pretty nice except its feels too soft to the touch (whatever that means)and you cannot get to the usb connection without pulling off the top part of the player (not that big of a deal i guess) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
