Use this forum to share and discuss cases for the Centro. In the near future, we'll be setting up User Review section specifically for Centro cases. This way, our members can share their reviews.

Well, I just got my new PINK Centro today (I'm sooooo exited!). I've been using a Treo 650 for two years and just loved it. I went through several cases for that phone and finally in the last few months I settled on a silicone case. I loved it, it made my kinda boring silver phone pink.

As well as giving good protection, of course. Heh. Well, my new Centro is already pink and it's beautiful, and the only option I see so far for it is a clear hard case, and I strongly disliked the one I had for my Treo. It bulked it up WAY too much, and I see the one for the Centro doing the same thing. I wish silicone skin cases came in crystal clear! But even a pink one would detract from the prettiness. I just can't have that, ya? I know--it won't look quite so pretty when it's got scratches all over it from dropping it and shoving it in my pocket or purse or whatever. So are there any other options for me?

Congratulations. While Pink isn't my color

, I do think it's very well done. Our store has frosted clear skin cases, but not 100% translucent. I know Palm has the "air" case, which is a hard plastic. I agree with your assessment on hard cases. Some are too bulky and I had one for the iPhone that would snap apart if you touched it. Seidio makes a hardcase that claims to be super thin. I haven't used it, but it does sound promising.

Good luck and thanks for joining Everything Centro!

I'm thinking of trying this case. After using my Centro for a week, I think I might like just a little bit more bulk.

But not too much.

Any idea when Egrips will put a product out for the Centro??

How good is that? I've been using Egrips on my Treo650 since I got it and wouldn't go without them.

Thanks for the heads up!

While it is pricey @ $39, I am very happy with the Sena Case. Ordered it from Senacases.

I've never seen the Egrips in person. Are they easy to apply/remove? Is it necessary to apply all of the portions or can you just use the one big panel on the back?

I hate when my phone goes flying in the car if it's on the seat or dash so I think they would work out well. But, I also would like to get a holster where the screen is protected and I can clip on my pants or car visor, so I'm thinking about the Seidio holster case. I wonder if I can use the egrips on the back of the phone and use a holster like the Seidio or the Mobi. Thoughts?
