MT4G Otterbox Defender case?

I wonder if we will get a Otterbox Defender case? These are great and I have one on my HTC HD2. Who else wants One?

I am waiting. It's great for a great piece of hardware.

I'm waiting for an OtterBox, case-mate Tough Case, or something similar. OtterBox made 'em for the Magic & Slide, so hopefully they will for the Glacier as well.

Geez, 5 months after the release of the Evo they FINALLY have an otterbox for it! So don't hold your breath! I'm waiting for a Seidio 3200-3500 Mah battery for it like I have on my Evo and matching belt clip-case/holster. Picking up my Glacier Monday and, like the Evo (got it the day it was released), going to be hard going while waiting for a few accessories for it.

I use this one and I love it! Almost EXACTLY like a commuter case!

This case is one of those sold in T-Mobile stores.

I got this the other day from Otterbox.
We are currently working on a Commuter and Impact case for this device, but it is still being designed and we don’t have a time table for when it will be ready. I recommend keeping an eye on our website or Facebook page where we will be sure to post more information as soon as it is available. Customer Service finds out about new case releases the moment they are posted to the website.
Thank you,

yeah, on otterbox facebook page they said they are working on cases for the mytouch 4g, but didnt go into details about which ones.. I prefer the defender series but will have to wait and see.
I will say though that I have defender series cases on my iphone, nexus one and hd2..by far the best of the bunch has been the iphone one, just made to a higher standard or something, fits much tighter and the rubber part stays put..on my hd2 the rubber part kinda just lays over the bottom buttons..not real form fitting.

I got in touch with them and they will not be making a defender case for out MT4G. They are developing a commuter and Impact version.

Otterbox Commuter and Impact in the works.

Here's a quote from a rep about the future of MyTouch 4G cases.

Does anyone know how the 2 piece tmobile case compares to the otterbox cases

It doesn't compare at all, the mytouch cases feel like they were made from recycled materials I have the body glove you are referring to and the build quality is not like the body gloves for the g2, mytouch slide, or even the motto cliq for that matter

I'm somewhat interested in seeing this case come out for the MT4G. I bought the 2-piece one from T-Mobile, but I would much rather have either an Epik case (loved the one I had for my MT3G) or possibly this one instead. I just sent the company an email asking for an ETA, so hopefully it'll be sooner than later.

cant wait for this!

me too, I'll be getting a commuter as soon as it's available.

I bought a 2 piece case from t-mobile paid 30 for it and I went to take it off to pull the battery and the effing thing broke in half I took back to them and they wouldn't replace the piece of garbage they call a case so don't buy one from them

Trident Cyclops Case

Does anyone have any experience with this case? It looks nice.

hhmm looks interesting

Yeah it does... I think I am about to buy one...

Well, I just bought it. If anybody wants, I can post pics or do a review when I get it... Just let me know..

alright ! sounds good man, i was waiting for the otterbox but i might have to give this a try first lol
make a mini review when you do get it
thanks!

Will do. Should be in by Friday-Monday it says.

It was the only positive thing about my Vibrant. I have a very disappointing Seidio case on my MT4G that was waiting on an Otterbox but will soon be covered in a Trident.

heres an video on the cyclops case

Okay, this is definitely the best case I've ever had (Other MT4G cases I've had are: silicone, black rubberized hard case, and clear hard case). It does add some bulk, however. The material is very high quality and sturdy. There is NO creaking or anything like that. The video right above pretty much shows you everything about it, so I won't go into those details because it is much more effective to actually see it. If I can get a picture of my phone next to another MT4G without a case, I will post that. While it does add some thickness, you can't get true protection like this without a little thickness. Overall, it is a very high quality case, and I am happy with it. If you have any questions, just ask, and I will answer them for you.

Does this case like to collect dust that's all I need to know before I order it

Ordered on ePay from the Oregon seller. It arrived at my doorstep here in the SE in 2 days. Nice case - the design is well thought out and most of all, IT FITS! I kept the Realook and it took a minute or two to install. Looking through their current product offering, I see holsters and I am hopeful one will follow soon for this case.

I've have had it in my pocket for a few hours and no dust so far.

Ok thanks ordering now can't afford to have my screen crack again even order zagg skin so I wouldn't scratch the back of the phone.

I don't see any on eBay. Its all for the Evo, Vibrant, or iPhone 4

How hard is the case to take off? I was planning on charging batteries via external charger.
- Frank

I think the case is sold out for now.
Also, the case is not hard to take off at all. I did it yesterday while I was driving a manual car in traffic on the highway. Lol...
And one side note, I do notice that the outer silicone case around the edges of the phone does attract some lint after being in a linty pocket, but I love the case overall.

Just got my yellow and black one its awesome I order mines directly from the site http://www.tridenteer.com/categories/HTC-myTouch-4G/Cyclops-Series-by-Trident-Case/

too bad it doesn't come with the kickstand. I'll stick with the one i got from tmobile now. The kickstand is absolutely invaluable.

Oh hell... I just watch the video. Nice. The deal maker for me was finally finding a quality screen protector that covers the entire front side. I also like the fact that the hard case is easy to take off.
Buying this now. Amazon Prime....
Edit: Screw Amazon on this one. "Takes two to three weeks to ship" - yet they have it on Prime. Will just buy directly from the makers.

Does the screen protector effect the proximity sensor? I've had the proximity sensor lock up the phone from being able to hang up on some screen protectors.

It hasn't affected it for me in about 2 weeks of use.

White Snap On Case?

Hey guys I literally just switched over to the evo last night from an epic and so far I love it =D It came with a rubber silicon case but I hate having to move something with a silicon case in and out of my pocket. So im looking for your guys help. My favorite case so far for the Evo is this -
http://cgi.ebay.com/XMATRIX-White-H...990962?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item27ba0abef2
Just a nice bright white, snap on hard case. But I was going to see if anyone knew of possibly a higher quality one? Or primarily one without the holes in the back?
Any and all help is appreciated!
Thank you very much!
Sincerely,
D3luSi0n4L - proud new evo owner =D

seidio makes the innocase II in white I believe, check their website.

Hmm that does look like a nice case, i really like the white surface, but man $30 is a bit steep =/ I'd rather pay $8 for this with holes in the back, it doesn't look too bad.
Thanks!

I really thought the price for the seidio cases were expensive too until I bought one. The quality is great. I absolutely love them. Especially with the holster that u can get with them. If u look on eBay or Amazon u can usually get them for less than that. Also, best buy sells the same thing but the brand name is "platinum". They are made by seidio though. And there usually slightly less than the actual seidio brand.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

As badly as I have wanted to change the overall color of my EVO, I never wanted to suffer losing the "thinness" of the phone that you lose with a case...
When I first bought the phone I bought a Platinum case and it was fairly nice, but after I ditched it after a couple months I can say I'll never go back...

Is there an Otterbox for this version?

My girlfriend has this phone, obviously being the TMo SGSII.
She saw I'm looking to get a otterbox defender for my Rezound I'm getting, she wants to know if there's one for her phone, I looked on Amazon and they exist for the international version and the AT&T version, would one of these work or is there one specific for this version? Thanks.

You could go on ebay and check out the ballistic or the trident cases. But they dont have that plastic screen protector. But honeslty the screen protector interferes with the touch

The infuse version fits with a small modification. Started a thread about it.

It works decent.

Seidio active case is another great option.

Unless you really, really need to have an Otterbox, don't buy the Infuse Otterbox for use with this phone. You'd be supporting a company that explicitly considers our phone to be unworthy of a case. Instead, I would encourage you to support one of the other companies who make cases specifically for our phones.

Look at trident aegis. Better than otter****

I'd respectfully disagree with you, although trident wins far and away aestetic wise.

I really like my Trident. It definitely increases the size of the device, but it feels safe, I've dropped it a few times from decent heights without any noticeable scratches or wear, and just fits in the hand right. Definitely worth the price.

If she'll settle for something like an otterbox, I would suggest getting her one of these- http://www.ebay.com/itm/150738046136?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 I just got one & it's just as solid as any otterbox I've ever seen. Much cheaper too, and it comes in a bunch of color combos.
And I agree about not supporting otterbox too. Why give money to a company that thinks our phones aren't important enough to make cases for(even though they're one of T-Mo's best selling phones)? Jerks. I had an OB for my HD2 & to be honest, it wasn't worth the money. The silicone got all stretched out within a month & the screen protector stuck to my screen & caused oil-slick distortions.

So does anyone make a case with a built in screen protector for our phone?
I have read as many threads as I can find...plus I have done a lot of Googling...and I cannot find a case with a built-in screen protector for our phone. I know some people don't like them, but I am a huge fan of the Otterbox Defender and that is what I am looking for on my phone. I don't feel like I can ever get the individual screen protectors on correctly, and even a teeny tiny piece of lint or bubble makes me crazy...and then the sides start coming up. All of my friends and family have 4 or 4s with Defenders (plus my son has an iTouch4 with a Defender), and the touch sensitivity is great. Does any brand make a case with a built in screen protector for the T-Mobile GS2??
Thank you!
p.s. The guy who has modified the Infuse Defender case is brilliant, great innovation! But I am not up for this. I want one made specifically for this phone w/a built-in screen protector.
