    The piece of equipment is so simple, yet has made the phone into some optical illusion that everyone I meet Is intrigued by. I like it since I can still see phone statuses but no need to be concerned with the screen being damaged. Bonus its durable. Don't let the price repel you, its higher than average cases for price, but form, fit and function, give it extra value that those other high durable cases over charge for.

    Fantastic concept and design

    This case is well thought of and of exceptionally good build quality. Case fits well with the M8. The top flap is made of soft rubber and is quite durable. HTC has shamelessly copied the apple smart cover concept. Screen locks/unlocks with the flap of the case. The flap doesn't hold on to the screen completely which gives the possibility of dust accumulation. Magnetic latch would have been great. The good thing about the case is the retro look it has to offer. The motion sensor of the phone works in sync with the case. The bad thing is it hides the beauty of the phone at the back. A brushed aluminium look like the casemate cases would have been fantastic. $50 is expensive for a hard plastic back and rubber flap. Just got this case from Bestbuy on preorder today. Had 04/10 as my date of delivery but got in store today. Great work Bestbuy.

    I purchased this thinking it would be really great to keep the time and weather on the cover, well sometimes I had to tap it four or five times to work and then it was impossible to see in the sun light. It offered no protection to the phone at all, it is only thin plastic. Would not work with Tempered Glass screen protector which was the deal breaker.

    Good looking case, good average protection and the soft touch feature is awesome!. what i like about the case is that you can doble tap and call with out having to open and unlock the phone. Also when double taping the clock looks awesome and not to forget how the contact name appears on top scrolling to the left. what i think it suck is the durability of the opening and closing hinge ( dont know how to call it) i already have some tears and is not going to last very much if i keep opening and closing it because every time i open it seems that it tears more. I am not sure about the warranty but will have to look in to it as its not been a year... other then that everything is good LOL

    I like this case a lot, the dot view functions are definitely cool and it's nice to be able to take phone calls through the case. While it's not the most protective case, I actually have dropped the phone a couple times while it was on and the phone screen didn't crack so I was fairly impressed. It would be nice to have more options for personalizing the dot view actions and would be nice to be able to tuck the front cover behind the phone when needed. Right now it has a spring which can get annoying (although useful for keeping the phone asleep).

    I got the cell phone case at a very low price (on sale). It is light weight and fits the phone perfectly. Also, it is a perfect fit in the phone pouch in my purse. I've had it for over one month and my only complaint is that it is a little awkward to hold while accessing the screen. Also, I'm unsure how much protection it would afford if I dropped the phone, as (fortunately) this has not happened so far. At this point, I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

    I bought this case thinking I was going to have to return it because so many people complained about it...fortunately for me, I LOVE it. I have always wanted to try out a folio-type case and to be honest, there are not that many for the HTC M8. This was totally worth the price I paid and it has saved my phone numerous times! You would think because it's made of plastic that it would just pop off if the phone hit the ground but it stays on really well. The NFC technology built in allows you to make calls and receive calls, view the weather, view the time and notifications without opening the front cover. It doesn't require a battery either because the phone is what is powering the case. Great piece of technology, don't listen to what everyone else says...you need to try this for yourself!

    The Dot View Case is MADE for this phone. It works so well with the phone it honestly feels like it should be given to you when you purchase it. Also now that you can have wallpapers when you check the time through the case, it looks even better However there are a few drawbacks to the case. 1. The cover tends to block the camera and flops around needlessly. Because of this it sometimes gets to be a bit frustrating when trying to take a picture or if you've left it open. If they had integrated it to bend in half with the ability to hook in on itself it would be perfect 2. The case is really just for looks. If you're looking for something to actually protect your phone from something more than a minor drop here and there, I would highly suggest looking into another case. The case indeed a head turner but the plastic feels cheap and the screen cover doesn't sit as securely as it could have.

    Not so handy or convenient

    This is a cool idea to use a phone case. The cutout is perfectly matched. I do like the feature by double tap the dotview case to reveal time/date and weather. But the case is kind of thin and does not provide much protection. After several months of normal use, the back panel of this case has been worn or scratched quite a lot. I did not even drop my phone or abuse it! And it's annoying when you try to use the camera, I can't fold the front cover back (it will block the camera) and I have to hold my phone by both hands. That's not very convenient when you just want to snap some shots quickly, so I don't use this case now.

    Overall, I rate this a good case and maybe the best for a HTC M8 that there is. There are some annoyances with always having to hold back the cover. Also, it is not the best at protecting your phone if you drop it. Caller ID functionality is cool looking also...

    HTC Dot View Case

    First, the case cover matches the phone color perfectly. Some folks thought it was part of the phone. The hardshell back is very rigid and provides a buffer so when the phone is placed on a hard surface, all contact is with the cover. The flip cover works well and stays closed due to the tension in the hinge. I was tempted to add a velcro snap to keep the cover closed but have discovered I didn't need it. Being able to answer the phone and check basic function using the dot reader (let's you see through the cover) is very helpful and handy. I paid a little more for this cover but am glad I did. I only wish the cover could be converted into a stand to prop the phone up when you open the cover as with iPad covers. Be aware that if the phone cover is closed, the media player won't play. If there is a way around this, I haven't discovered it.

    You need to protect your phone

    I purchased the "HTC - Dot View Case for HTC One (M8) Cell Phones - Warm Black" to protect my HTC phone. This case has protected my phone after a couple of accidental drops. In addition this phone case has some features that I did not expect in a phone case. The cover is perforated so you can see the display through the case and you can swipe across the cover to see who's calling and to answer the phone. It also activates the phone when you open the cover so you don't have to open the cover and then swipe across the screen to get into the phone - removing one step. Overall this cover has protected my phone from drops and has some unexpected nice features.

    If you want to use this case, you cannot use a protector. It doesn't sit right on the phone unless the screen is naked. Wish there were a little play in it, because I do like the concept.
