Considering that it is a high end phone, there is every reason to protect it as far as possible, not to mention the sensitive touch screen. And for protection purposes, there are covers available in all sorts of colors and designs to give your Motorola Droid X an extra protective shield.
Talking of Motorola Droid X covers, they are primarily available in three varieties- rubberized, also called snap on covers; silicone or jelly covers; and TPU covers. Each type comes with its own advantages and disadvantages:
Rubberized covers- These are the cheapest of the lot; and they care called snap on for a reason. You can simply snap these covers on and off your mobile in a jiffy. Thats their biggest advantage. On the negative side, these covers attract a lot of dust and grime, and therefore, they start looking dirty very soon. Thus, you need to replace these every few months.
Silicone- These are jelly like covers, acting more as a skin than a cover for your phone. The biggest advantage of these is their water repellant and dust repellant nature, which gives your phone added protection. Contrary to the rubberized variety, they are available in a lot of funky designs and colors too, which allows you to customize your phone. On the flip side though, they are slightly more expensive than the rubberized variety.
PTU- These Motorola Droid X covers are arguably the best of the lot. They combine the robustness of plastic and the flexibility of Silicone to protect your phone from all kinds of surfaces. And since it is the best of both worlds, these are the most expensive of the lot.
Of course, covers are not the only thing you can get for your smartphone. There are other Motorola Droid X accessories too to be had, like a dock which converts your phone into a media hub.
