I have to say this has been one of the most entertaining and well informed review that I have ever watched.This dude answered all my questions and made me laugh with the way he describes the Dot Case. I am a subscriber. Keep up the good work.
You know whats hilarious about this? I just googled a case for the HTC and this dude came on so I am listening without watching and realized its my Boy FLOSSY CARTER. Because of him I ordered the Black Stainless Steel Huawei SmartWatch !!! Love his reviews. I was cracking up when I realized it was him!!! Love this dude. Reviews are to the point. No fluff! Stay true Bro!!!
Man, Floss always keeps it legit. I gotta say you sir are probably my favorite person to watch reviews on. You always keep it legit, these are actual concerns to know about this case. Keep it up Floss been subscribed for awhile!
Floss, been subscribed for a while, and you're still one of my favorite reviewers. On top of knowing your stuff, you also have a different style that I appreciate. You and ***** holding it down!
Hey Floss. Loving your videos here in England, UK. Just thought I'd mention that the HTC Dot View case has just had an update and you can now listen to music and control music with case closed. I think you should review the case again as it's now a much better case with the updates.
Flossy Carter: my favorite youtuber, because many things 1.Dedicated, Hes dedicated ex. This video was 15 mins long and it was 100% about the case he was covering, Same with all his other videos. 2.Active, He is a really active person ex. He replies to as many comments as possible and hes on facebook, google+, twitter, etc and replies to comments on those too. 3.Honesty, He only tells you the truth and nothing but the truth. Whenever i need a new case for my phone or tablet i come straight to Flossy Carter's channel if the one i was looking at isnt on his channel its not worth buying and he gives you his honest oppinion. 4.Time And Effort, he's been on youtube a long time i remember when he did reviews on bmw's, then eventually moved onward to making more great content. Hes not just some guy that came out of nowhere and got popular he does great work on everything he does. Flossy Carter you are the best youtuber I've ever come across and you are amazing keep doing what your good at, being amazing. Thanks for reading this if you did
Awesome video review once again Floss. I can't see me replacing my Slim Armor with this after seeing all the shit you didn't like. I really enjoy your videos because you always hit on the real points that I want to hear about and not a bunch of bullshit that I don't. You seem to be a kick ass dude who keeps it real at all times. I really respect that. Looking forward to your future vids.
Awesome review! I hate sticky rubber & I would have bought this and been irritated by that detail. And, I love that you spoke about lack of visibility in daylight which I hadn't even considered.
Great, practical review. Sounds like most of the problems you had with this case can be fixed via software updates. I'm thinking an equalizer would be really cool too.
Hey Nocturnal. I think Floss has kept it really real on this video when he's saying that the back will get "mad scratched". I've got the case and the back of mine is scratched and I look after my phone. To be fair I only paid £15 for mine on Amazon which is about 20-25p$. I'd rather have the case scratched than my phone though. HTC seemed to have watched this video coz the software negatives of the case have been pretty much ironed out with the software updates. Well done HTC! and of course well done Floss!
Thanks so much for your review, I WILL NOT be getting this case! If for nothing else but the fact that I have 3 email accounts and the notification envelope would drive me insane if it works as you say. Plus the fact that you can't take a pic with it closed sucks.
5:43 "Yo dat shit is hot" - Flossy Carter, 2014 Man your reviews are the best. You give us the consumer picture with some technical stuff. keep it up bruddah.
Hey Flos, meanwhile the case has an official application and you can customize more. You can have more notifications, change the background or have a flashing screensaver. Today, there are also lots of replicas and fakes (like one on ebay for 3 dollars) but I do not know the difference. This information is not worth to make a new review I think but you could put the info/changes in the description or a note on the video :) Keep up the good work, I like your real views really!
This is a case you buy 2 months from now when they drop the price or when the Chinese figure out how they did it and sell it for pennies. Really cool idea, but not a huge amount of function and cost a lot.
***** Not asians, Chinese. Since all the knock off goods or really anything comes from China. Ebay always has a billion unique cases from China for super cheap. For sure this case can be faked and sold for cheap too.
Excellent review as usual Big homie Floss. Case is "ok" at best. I'd rock it for $20, just to have something different in my collection, but not a penny more than that.
Nice review Flossy, but one thing with cases is they're supposed to take a beating and get scratched up and not the phone, especially one with a metallic finish right ;-)
Hey Floss, only just found your channel, but I gotta say, I'm loving it, watching reviews on phones I don't even own! One quick question, will you be getting the S5?
Concise bro.that was a good and honest review, you spend your own money and you keep it 100 that's not nitpicking at all. I have a question for you are you going to get the gear2?
Hi flossy! Well that was thorough, thanks! But I have a question: I already have the case, and the screen is stuck on three calll notifications...I just can't get rid of them and go back to the time and weather screen. Do you know how to fix that issue? The booklet didn't help. Thanks a lot!
I never really been in to these type of cases for the exact cons Floss was talking about. I use those booklet cases on my tablets. As far as phone functionality I need something I can get to and fast. But this case is good for a Friday night or Saturday night out but not a daily driver.
Ok, the good stiff - checked, the bad stuff - checked, SO, if i decide not to buy it because of some of it's bad sides, which case(s) is the better alternative? I mean now a year and a half later are there better ones and which.
Could use some rubber pads on the tabs so it will stand up on a slick surface. Or I guess if it was just a softer plastic. That might make it look a little less cheap. Also phone will fly out of the case if you open it too fast. I still like it though. The dot aps are starting to show up on the marketplace.
I've been using my dot view case on and off for three weeks. I ditch it sometimes because holding the phone without the case just feels nicer. What I want to ask you about is do you feel like the battery dies faster when you have the case on? I feel so.
I agree with you on this one Floss, however I do believe this phone case is a go. Most things I don't like about the case can be solved with a update. For example, it needs more 3rd party app support. I prefer to uses EvolveSMS as my text app, however if I do, I will not get the notifications on the case, the same thing with Gmail, no icon for that. You also should be able to swipe them away. Would also be cool if you could have a battery icon on the front of the case while your charging it so you know how much juice is on your phone. I also could have sworn when the case first came out it showed someone playing music and a cool eq popped up on the case but I can't get mine to do this, and I haven't found anymore videos on this, so maybe they took it away. I agree with the issues with lint getting stuck on the holes, but, this is minor. I also think it would have been nice if the back was clear so you could still see the gorgeous body of the phone. I think the price should have been around $30 to $40.
Hey I would like to know what in your opinion for a case for the M8 is stylish, protective, and is decent in price because Im going to get the m8 and I don't want any dings
I like the "idea" and the features of the case. However a big reason i like the HTC One M8 is the build quality. Covering it up kinda defeats the purpose. Yeah the phone is slippery, but HTC is offering free screen replacements for the first 6 months. So no case for me!
Almost all the bad you said can be updated with new software. HTC put out an app to go with the case. So they just have update the app and there you go.
Oh yeah, also one other note. HTC put the app that controls this on the Play Store, this indicates that they are going to be able to push updates faster. So hopefully they update this app to have more functionality.
Whats up mr carter hey man i got this case super hot for my note 2 its called VWTECH Tank aluminum case its waterproof give it a look man and do a review on it i know you gonna like it mayne.
I knew nothing about this case till I watched this and from the thumbnail of the video I thought that the case had leds built into it and didn't utilize the phone screen. I would pay $50 if it did and it wouldn't have the lint issue. $50 for perforated rubber? Get the fuck outta here
I bought one. The phone falls out of it because the fit it is so flimsy. It doesn't fold back properly so it always wants to shut. You can't hold it safely with one hand OK it's cool to be able to see the time and weather, and to turn on when you open it. But that's not going to help when the phone has fallen out of the case and smashed on the ground!! I want my money back - and it wasn't cheap!
The only thing I don't like about this case is that it doesn't really function correctly with a tempered glass screen protector. Pretty good product though, 7.5/10

Floss I'm about to get the red official.. Love the M8...Yo I give you props on the review.. Keep up the good work
Awesome review! I hate sticky rubber & I would have bought this and been irritated by that detail. And, I love that you spoke about lack of visibility in daylight which I hadn't even considered.
You aren't being picky...they are legit concerns..plus there is no such thing as pick when it comes to YOUR money. Great vid!
sir you are the man! clear straight to the point review. Love it!
Thanks my friend
Orale ! Came across your reviews and I Love Them. Keep it Up Homeboy. Very honest and informative. Look forward to the Next One. Peace.
Great, practical review.
Sounds like most of the problems you had with this case can be fixed via software updates. I'm thinking an equalizer would be really cool too.
this is one of the only case that provides a real useful function
I love your videos.. Thanks
Thank you sweetie!
This case is definitely a go Floss, great reviews like usual my dude
Great reviews floss always telling it like it is and keeping us upto speed with the tech game
Love from Scotland

Great review Floss...
the most honest review i've seen. thank you !
Thanks so much for your review, I WILL NOT be getting this case! If for nothing else but the fact that I have 3 email accounts and the notification envelope would drive me insane if it works as you say. Plus the fact that you can't take a pic with it closed sucks.
Yo Flossy Carter you should do a video on what your favorite phone you rock with on a daily basis. Great videos. Watch em everyday.
5:43 "Yo dat shit is hot" - Flossy Carter, 2014
Man your reviews are the best. You give us the consumer picture with some technical stuff. keep it up bruddah.
i like the way you break down the details...well done menn...pretty cool case tho...
Always enjoy your videos, you keep it real.
I wonder if other companies are even allowed to use the Dots.
Hey Flos,
meanwhile the case has an official application and you can customize more. You can have more notifications, change the background or have a flashing screensaver.
Today, there are also lots of replicas and fakes (like one on ebay for 3 dollars) but I do not know the difference.

Lol "when the Chinese figure out how they did it and sell it for pennies."
the chinese are probably the ones who invented this product.
***** Not asians, Chinese. Since all the knock off goods or really anything comes from China. Ebay always has a billion unique cases from China for super cheap. For sure this case can be faked and sold for cheap too.
Team-Shmo The case is 10 bucks on Amazon but that's for the grey case the others are around 15 dollars
Excellent review as usual Big homie Floss.
Case is "ok" at best. I'd rock it for $20, just to have something different in my collection, but not a penny more than that.
Really great job mr Floss, like ur opinions, but not going to buy it, as u said waiting for the best.. any new cases? Or not yet :-(
Another great video floss! Thanks ma man!
I aint never subscribed to a reviewer for phones but god damn, you funny as hell.
+Truong Nguyen much love bro!
Nice review Flossy, but one thing with cases is they're supposed to take a beating and get scratched up and not the phone, especially one with a metallic finish right ;-)
Hey Floss, only just found your channel, but I gotta say, I'm loving it, watching reviews on phones I don't even own!
One quick question, will you be getting the S5?
Great thorough review! Super helpful!
Concise bro.that was a good and honest review, you spend your own money and you keep it 100 that's not nitpicking at all. I have a question for you are you going to get the gear2?
Thanks my friend! Yeah I'm definitely going to get it.. I use my gear all day everyday!
i pulled the trigger on that gear 2 and that thing is nice now i'm waiting on the real review.
You make great videos. Keep it up!
Hi flossy! Well that was thorough, thanks! But I have a question: I already have the case, and the screen is stuck on three calll notifications...I just can't get rid of them and go back to the time and weather screen. Do you know how to fix that issue? The booklet didn't help. Thanks a lot!
One of the best reviews of anything ever! Subscribed!
Great review, sad that the case seems like a bad buy though. Any news on similar cases from some other manufactures?
I never really been in to these type of cases for the exact cons Floss was talking about. I use those booklet cases on my tablets. As far as phone functionality I need something I can get to and fast. But this case is good for a Friday night or Saturday night out but not a daily driver.
Especially at night, this case is Boss! I feel what you mean tho
straight to the point. brother i appreciate that
hey floss, nice review. does it work with a glass screen protector?
Ok, the good stiff - checked, the bad stuff - checked, SO, if i decide not to buy it because of some of it's bad sides, which case(s) is the better alternative? I mean now a year and a half later are there better ones and which.
Thanks for the review Floss when did the m8 come out?
Could use some rubber pads on the tabs so it will stand up on a slick surface. Or I guess if it was just a softer plastic. That might make it look a little less cheap. Also phone will fly out of the case if you open it too fast. I still like it though. The dot aps are starting to show up on the marketplace.
As usual a great review!
I've been using my dot view case on and off for three weeks. I ditch it sometimes because holding the phone without the case just feels nicer. What I want to ask you about is do you feel like the battery dies faster when you have the case on? I feel so.
Love the case, just hate how it's "in the way" when it's flipped open... With the rounded back of the M8 it's not the most comfortable ya dig
I've been wondering, what is the point of having a cutout for the front facing camera?
"When trying to take pictures of things you know your not suppose to" Lol
Also, it is so hard to use the phone with this case on. I think it is definitely a situation dependent case at this point.
Forgot to say Flossy (Great review as always!) that the Black one is different than the VZW gray one :-)
I agree with you on this one Floss, however I do believe this phone case is a go. Most things I don't like about the case can be solved with a update. For example, it needs more 3rd party app support. I prefer to uses EvolveSMS as my text app, however if I do, I will not get the notifications on the case, the same thing with Gmail, no icon for that. You also should be able to swipe them away.

I agree with the issues with lint getting stuck on the holes, but, this is minor. I also think it would have been nice if the back was clear so you could still see the gorgeous body of the phone. I think the price should have been around $30 to $40.
So Floss are you going to get the s5 or hold out for the galaxy prime?
The idea is nice but it does look kinda basic. Floss, u gonna get the Samsung Gear Fit? That looks niiiiice!
Hey I would like to know what in your opinion for a case for the
M8 is stylish, protective, and is decent in price because Im going to get the m8 and I don't want any dings
I like the "idea" and the features of the case. However a big reason i like the HTC One M8 is the build quality. Covering it up kinda defeats the purpose. Yeah the phone is slippery, but HTC is offering free screen replacements for the first 6 months. So no case for me!
That double tap feature comes from the g2
Great Review couldn't agree with you more
I made my mind up not getting this case, was looking forward to it but $50 is too steep for rubber and plastic
I recently got an iphone 5 (around 6 months ago) and now I realise that I really just needed a good, smart android. ): like the htc one
How did you get that light? I mean the purple light next to the speaker?
It's a sensor
Almost all the bad you said can be updated with new software. HTC put out an app to go with the case. So they just have update the app and there you go.
Yeah but that's something that should have been done before the case was sold.. HTC isn't famous for their updates lol
I hope, and guess that we will see 3rd party cases using the same idea, but more comfortable and nicer
Hey Floss is the battery better on the m8 or the gs4?
I'm sure this case was designed for software updates. So don't hate it on just yet.
The case has a small magnet in the front branded HTC sign.
Ayo Big Floss when is the real review coming??
Bob Bagget-- u are right --, ...and u Flossy ..respect
If the dot view flap was removable, I'd consider buying it.
Will the case work with a screen protector on the phone?
Tammy Vu YES
Flossy Carter Thank you
Tale MECH yeah same for me such a bummer for a case like this
great review, thanks!
Thanks bro
love his outros :D
Great review
Hmm just coped it, mine doesn't close all the way though?
hello guys, just a quick question, does the screen protector + closed dot view case effect functionality of the dot view case ?
His voice makes me want to be his friend
Just got the m8. Not the biggest fan of the dot case. Got a more protective case for it
Oh yeah, also one other note. HTC put the app that controls this on the Play Store, this indicates that they are going to be able to push updates faster. So hopefully they update this app to have more functionality.
great review
I wonder what's in case that makes the phone switch to that software
is this DMX talking?
thanks. the realest dude on youtube. The Dot View Case really sucks, but the idea is great!
The case is 4 dollers know
Whats up mr carter hey man i got this case super hot for my note 2 its called VWTECH Tank aluminum case its waterproof give it a look man and do a review on it i know you gonna like it mayne.
That case is sick
yo floss is that a harmon/kardon edition m8?
Is the m8 still a good phone
Can you do the review for samsug S6?
Floss good vid man!
Thanks my dude!
Havent seen a car vid ina minute!!
I knew nothing about this case till I watched this and from the thumbnail of the video I thought that the case had leds built into it and didn't utilize the phone screen. I would pay $50 if it did and it wouldn't have the lint issue. $50 for perforated rubber? Get the fuck outta here
I love case HTC :)
wish they had this for the Samsung Galaxy line
The case isnt completely practical, but it definitley has that wow factor if you dont mind me sayin.
"Lookin' like a new jack" bruh lmaoo
Lol I'm saying tho
Haha I feel it
15greatestever .
I bought one. The phone falls out of it because the fit it is so flimsy. It doesn't fold back properly so it always wants to shut. You can't hold it safely with one hand OK it's cool to be able to see the time and weather, and to turn on when you open it. But that's not going to help when the phone has fallen out of the case and smashed on the ground!!
I want my money back - and it wasn't cheap!
I guess Juicy from the show "The PJs" can't use this case because of the crumb in the pocket factor. :D
The only thing I don't like about this case is that it doesn't really function correctly with a tempered glass screen protector.
Pretty good product though, 7.5/10
