Has anyone tried this armband? - EVO 4G Accessories

THIS is the one I've been looking at. It says that the evo fits, even shows the evo in it.
So, has anyone used this particular armband before? How does it fit? Does everything line up the correct way?
Thanks!

Yes, I own it. I like it. The evo fits only if you keep it naked. I don't have a case and it is snug. I can't imagine it falling out. I like the clear cover. I used it on a 12 hour hike last Saturday and it was great. Recommended.

how do you think itd fit with the evo and the otterbox commuter?

Sigh. Your question was already answered. In addition to that, the Otterbox is a beast of a case (but in a good way, also in a size way) so what would you think?

Pouch case for the HTC EVO?

I love my Nexus One's pouch case that came bundled with the phone. I am not a big fan of adding skins and layers to my phone. I am just looking for a pouch case where it is protected when in my pocket. Anyone know where I can get something like that? It doesn't have to be an official case.
I got a HTC branded pouch case that fit my EVO perfectly from Sprint store. I believe it is 29.99 and if you have premier discount, it is ~$22. I love mine.
Are you looking for a simple form-fitting pleather pouch or something that protects it a bit more perhaps? I can't help you w/the first but I've heard the Lowepro Tasca 20 will fit the EVO, may not be an exact fit but it's made of neoprene and it looks pretty nice if you're gonna toss the phone in a bag at any point...
I've got one I've used for my iPod touch in the past, fits a bit loosely, I can confirm whether it fits the EVO alright tomorrow.
No something simple like you first said. I am okay with a simple pouch to just keep in my pocket. That Lowepro Tasca 20 seems decent. Basically the idea I am looking for.
Yeah, being from neoprene it's gonna be a bit thicker than something made out of a cheaper material but it also protects it a bit more... The top closes w/a simple metal clasp (again, that might add a bit more bulk than something w/o a clasp), I'll let ya know tomorrow how tight it is around the EVO. I hope UPS drops my EVO early!

Got a picture of this or a link?
I didn't see any pouches whatsoever at my store... Just hard cases and silicon skins, haven't seen it online either, I'd be interested in pics of it as well.

Stopped by my Sprint store yesterday and they were sold out. Sales guy actually told me they'll likely get new Evo's in before they get more of these leather cases in stock.
FYI I bought a leather case from verizon for the Droid, it fits the Evo 4g in nicely. But it's for coneecting to your belt. Maybe some Droid stuff will fit the Evo in?
try this maybe?

This is the HTC leather case w/belt clip from Sprint. Specifically for the EVO, I have it and it fits like a glove.

I just got it today. It's nice and snug. I like it.
Any other pouch suggestions? Or "socks" - my wife is in need of something for when she throws her Evo in her bag... The old ipod sock-type cases would be perfect..

Belt Holster?

I'm looking for a belt clip holster for my Captivate. I want one that holds the phone horizontally, and something with a magnetic flap. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I found one at Best Buy that fit with the soft Body Glove case on. I think the name was Rhino-case or something like that. I'm probably going to keep looking, the belt clip on this one isn't all that great.
I saw one like your talking about on one of the forums. It was an OEM holster that had a metal tag on it that said "Galaxy S". I haven't been able to find that holster for sale OR find the originally forum article where I saw it
This is what I ordered yesterday off Amazon. Just got shipped, so I haven't personally examined it, but it fits the description of what you need.

Rajendra, I bought something similar off ebay a while back for my last phone, and the leather around the belt clip started ripping after 2-3 months of use. I'd really like something that's going to last at least a year or two, if not longer.

It looks very wide to me - for a thicker phone. Much like a lot of the universal cases.
I have the body glove case from AT&T and with that, it fits pretty nicely into the spring loaded holster case for the Droid X from Verizon! Lol
I'll put up some pics if anyone's interested or whenever I get the chance
I'm interested...

If you could post pics it would be nice.
Best case, IMHO, is the Case Logic ITEM # CLP403SPH.
Simple clean lines, fits like a glove, black leather with contrast tan stitching and suede tan inner lining.
I search for several days and found this case at Target for $20.

Here's a little video... Sorry I was too lazy to find my camera so the closest thing was an Ipod Nano lol
One thing that does worry me about this is that the screen has to face out so it can be pretty nerve racking if you bump into things a lot...
You can make the screen face in, but it won't fit if you have a case on. It also doesn't feel so secure.
One of the main reasons I like this though is that I can keep it secured, out of my pocket, and I can still leave my earphones on it listening to music! (I messed up quite a few earphones jamming my devices into my pocket with them plugged in)

I just had to see if I liked the holster you were talking about so went to the store and asked for it. It was in the back and when he came out had a different one. I like it better and the face is in.
All it says is " shell/holster combo". of course I only used the holster.
29.99 cost. Works right though with the body glove on. Solid too.

I got this delivered from Amazon today. Seems very well made for the price, and fits the naked Captivate perfectly. Unfortunately it is way too tight with the body glove on, so it's either one or the other.
Oh nice! I really like the spring loaded feature on mine, but I think it's more important to cover the face! Lol.
Can you still plug in earphones with it clipped on the case? Is it also really easy to put on and remove?

yes it is. I wonder if just the belt clip is available separately? Don't really need the cover. Might be cheaper. Like me.
I moved from a Tilt2. I have been using a Palm Treo case since my old Tilt. While looking for a case, I used the Treo case with the Body Glove cover. I was planning to use it until I found a better fitting case. It was too tight a fit to use.
In the past couple of days, the case has been forming it to the phone and now it fits perfectly. I buy these things a couple at a time so when they wear out, I have another. It looks like I'll be using this case until I cannot find it anymore.
Here's links to 2 Droid X cases at Verizon.

Cases :-)

How many cases are there for the evo damnit, everyone i look at is just a flewzy piece of rubber.
I got the otterbox 1 which is a OKAY case but its too lose on the phone that it covers up the front camera sometimes, smh. and another white clear case..
I saw the Trident cases yesterday on this site and wondered how many more cases out there that i have never heard of.
What you guys prefer? I'm not one those people that going to waste 40$ on a case lol come on.
I got the HTC Hard Shell Case for HTC EVO™ 4G. It's at raidoshack for $18. Makes the phone feel soild and thick. Ive dropped it a few times and have not worried that any damage was inflicked to the phone. Check it out, at most radio shacks they'll let you take the case out and try it on your phone. It has holes for every port and button.
I have the Otterbox Commuter. No real complaints. The only con that I can complain about is that the rubber side of the case *drags/grips* while sliding it out of your pocket. It does add a bit of bulk, but it isn't clunky feeling.
not bad, thats a thick piece of material. I see there 2 colors. which do you have?

My buddy that works at sprint has the exact same one and when he stopped using it i tried it on my phone and idk if he did something to it or it got worn out but the rubber on that thing got stretched to ****. i could of fit 2 evo's in that case.
And i'm rooted so there are times were i need to do a battery pull, feels like im going to need a map to get that thing off
not sure if you were replying to my post, but it only comes in black/silver.

The commuter has an inner silicone/rubber case, then a hard plastic that goes over that.

dont remember what i paid, but got it for less than 15 $'s. some say it interferes with radio signal but i haven't had any problems. also, i dropped this several times and it did a great job protecting my evo. case is super easy to remove for battery pulls too.
I also have the Otter. I have the $35 one from Sprint. I guess there's a $50 one also. I love the 2 part case and mine fits like a glove. I think its designed wonderfully

Where can I find a mesh case?

I came across this while searching on the internet.
http://www.fonearena.com/blog/41554/review-official-mesh-case-for-samsung-galaxy-s-ii.html
I was wondering if there's something similar for the Galaxy Nexus?
Ebay and Amazon always give me TPU cases and stuff and I don't like most of them.
Thanks!
Has anyone tried this? Looking for pics of the top/bottom to see if it covers the whole phone. Got a similar one for the GSII and was not happy with how much it left exposed.

That looks nice. Any other pictures available for this? I'd like to see how it looks from the front of the phone. It does look slightly more bulkier than a a Case-Mate Barely There or Incipio Feather though.
Can anyone tell if the eBay one is fake? I heard there were plenty of fake ones for the S2.
The packaging/wording in the picture looks a bit suspicious to me. I haven't seen this anywhere else also.
they need to put some pics of the phone inside the case, all the pics have the phone on its back
You can tell from one of the pics that the top is half exposed. I think this is to be expected for a slim profile case. If you want full body protection you need to look at bulkier case options.

Seidio Exended battery door with Seideo spring holster?

I am using the Seidio extended battery door (with Anker extended battery) and no case at all. I want to use my phone in a holster so I can clip it to my belt or pants. Will the phone with the ended battery door fit into a normal Seidio holster such as this one: http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-HLSSGS...er-Samsung/dp/B008GMYY0G/ref=reg_hu-rd_dp_img It looks like the parts clipping the phone in are on the bottom where the extended back cover is flush with the phone. I know there is also an extended Seidio holster, but that is designed for a case and may be too large.
I don’t want to risk buying this one if it doesn’t fit, so if anyone has tried this combination or anything similar please share!
thanks :good:
I'd suggest just asking siedio on their chat support.
