The new HTC One hasn’t been announced yet but you’d be excused if you thought it already was, given how much we know about this phone. While some of you might be very bored with the M8, others are impatiently waiting for its release so they can buy it. In this case, you can already start prepping by ordering these great cases for it.

Spigen Slim Armor

Spigen’s Slim Armor series mixes protection and elegance in a refined look that wouldn’t detract from the One’s beautiful design. There’s a black TPU case for shock absorption and a polycarbonate hard shell on top of it for added style and colors.

Spigen Ultra Fit Capsule

The Ultra Fit Capsule is another case by Spigen that is just the opposite of the Slim Armor. Instead of imposing its own design, the Capsule is a crystal clear TPU case that will let the phone’s details shine right through. It is as minimalist as you can get with a case, while not compromising on protection.

Red Shield Anti Slip

The Red Shield case is similar to the Ultra Fit Capsule above, except that it comes in various colors, six to be precise. I do advise to steer away from the clear variant here though, because it is likely of a lower quality than the Spigen and will end up with a yellowish tint with usage.

Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit

You couldn’t show your love for Android better than with this case. It is TPU-based as well, but features Cruzerlite’s signature android circuit design in 11 different colors, for a very authentic geeky feel. This case is on my must-buy list for any device.

Tudia Ultra Melody

Tudia’s Ultra Melody is one of the best value-for-money propositions in the case category. The Melody is well-made, crafted in TPU for optimal protection, and carved with a musical equalizer design. It’s available in four different colors as well.

Nillkin Slim Hard

I normally advise against hard cases because they don’t absorb shock well, tend to snap off easily, and are usually quite slippery. However, Nillkin makes some of the greatest cases and this one is no exception. It complements the HTC One’s design well and seems to wrap around just enough to stay attached in case of a fall. It is super thin too, with a textured material that should make it easier to grip.
