I just found these while doing a little searching. I don't need one, as I carry the Thunderbolt with extended battery in a leather holster, but I know some of you are looking for these. Gotta look a lot better than a cut up case
The bad news is that as of right now they are out of stock, so it looks like they get bought up pretty quick. Here's a link if you want to check them out. They come in different colors, too.
Thanks so much dude I've been looking everywhere for one

Wish they had a hard snap one but I order the light blue
Wow. $25 is a little steep for a silicone cover! Guess they kinda have the market cornered right now though. I wish Otterbox would make the defender series case for this phone.

They sell a batter slash cover combo for under $50

Guys, don't waste your money on these cases, if you want one, go on ebay or amazon and get the same case for $5.00 or less and cut out the extended battery portion.
Wonder if they will be making the hard case as well with the cut-out like they did with this silicone case. Would almost make me buy the extended battery if they make the identical Verizon case that I bought for the phone without the extended battery.
It would be really cool if someone from here could just open a small ebay business of selling extended batter silicone cases. They could just buy bulk from ebay and mod the cases and resell them for a decent profit (not $25 please). I know I'd buy one.
Just cut it yourself. Save 20 bucks

Just wondering how people plan to cut their own cases for the extended battery, I'm sure not all of us have a dremel tool handy... Maybe use scissors? Box cutter with a fresh blade?

Just box cuttered my Verizon holster case. It'll do for now until the real deal hits. Extended battery is worth the hassle.
Blundered from my Dunderbolt
regular battery in extended cover
does anyone know if you can still use the old small battery with the larger cover incase your extended battery runs out?
Use an Exacto knife to cut the case.
Anyone recieve their case yet?? Just wondering if the case is thicker than the stock silicone that comes with the Verizon cover
Fresh razor.

Hi guys....
I took a "skin" that I bought for $2.99 and cut it to fit the extended battery. I also have the Seidio Holster that fits the phone with the skin!
For me...it is perfect...I used a box cutter. I could have measured and cut better....but for $2.99 it was worth it LOL
That looks good... Great idea for people looking for cases...

This case is pretty nice!! Great protection and doesn't at too much bulk at all. The material feels amazing in your hand. Side note , it also fits in the holster of Verizon's shell holster combo !!

I love it....and I hate cases. One question before I order it. Is the power button cut out? Does work well unlocking screen or is it a little tough. Thanks for the heads up on a great looking case.

also is it a dust bunny or is it like TPU
I got the exact same one but in red off Amazon for about $10. It's a great case, and I love it.
The power button seems easier to press IMO but it is a pain to remove the thing because sometimes the battery cover comes off when removing, but that just means that it's a tight fitting case and I highly recommend it.

I've had it for about 2 weeks now. No dust issues on my black/red case.
I really like this case as well, and for the $7 shipped from Amazon, it really can't be beat.
picked up one of these as well, black/black, fits well and little added bulk. This is the first phone case I've actually liked.
I bought the same case except clear smoked on the whole back and black on the sides. A lot like the awesome Griffin REVEAL case for the first incredible

I'm not big on cases, especially since my car dock won't accommodate the DINC 2 with a case, but i picked one up due to the great reviews. It will be nice to have if I'm doing something besides going to the office.
Ahh that yellow one looks pretty awesome. I'm tired of having all-black cases and this OtterBox Defender needs to go, just makes the phone too bloated and have a hard time getting to the Q and P on the GB keyboard. This will defintely be my next case!
To each his own
I bought that case in black/red and also a tpu black case with a wave pattern. I hated the TPU/plastic black/red that you are referencing didn't even put it on didn't like the feel of it.
The TPU black case has a wave pattern that makes it much better to grip and doesn't show smudges that much due to the pattern. The TPU wave case was noticeably slimmer. I still wish I had a slimmer case but the wave case is quite nice.
I think I got it from the link below.

Edit: They are on sale for 4 bucks I am getting a wave tpu red case and white one as well!
The only thing I hate is that it is not easy at all to take off the case.. I always get the back cover stuck in the case and can't get it out..

I bought the laza case for my evo and it fits fine. The only thing i didnt like about it is that its a pain to get out of my pocket because of the material the case is made out of.
I used it for about a month and got tired of it. Its black, i you want it i will sell it to you for cheap.
Anyone else have a Momax 2700 battery and have a case for the phone? I am giving mine to my son but I want a protective case for it so he doesn't destroy the phone!

I've had both (Although I had the Commuter for my old LG Optimus One) and I currently have the Seidio Active (Without the kickstand) and the Seidio Active is much much better. The silicone and plastic is much higher quality and it doesn't lose it's shape like most Otterboxes too. The only upside with buying the Otterbox is that is comes with a screen protector (A pretty crappy one anyway) and that's about it. The Seidio case is much better.

By the way does the case get a lot of lint on it and does it get stuck inside pockets and such that's my main concern lol
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
The Seidio case picks up a little bit of lint, a LOT less than the Otterboxes do. Half the time for me it doesn't pick lint up but when it does it's barely noticeable and wipes off really easily. Can't same the same about the Otterbox though, I had a hell of a time with lint problems when I had one for my old phone.

Do yourself a favor and also check out the Trident Kraken(Excellent Video Review Here). It has an awesome kickstand, tons of accessories that can be bought(11 bucks for a windshield mount? DONE!) and you can take it out of the poly-carb box and use just the silicon sleeve when you don't need it. Plus from everything I read online, Trident offers far superior protection than SEIDO or Otterbox. And the rotatable belt clip is way better than a holster, to me anyway. Give it a look, love mine!
Also if you want slightly less protection(and thickness) consider the Trident Aegis.
Quit hatin' on the Commuter!

Of course the Trident Kraken offers superior protection when compared to the Seidio Active and Otterbox Commuter but it also adds a lot more bulk to your phone. (If you're ok with that, then go for the Kraken! It is the most protective case out of the three!).
And I wasn't hating on the Commuter, I was just stating what I had encountered when I had one with my old phone.
I decided to go with the Seidio Active case with the kickstand. It should arrive tomorrow so I'll update you guys on how it is.

Got the Seidio case in the mail today I love it but the only thing is that it doesn't have any opening for the 3 pin thing on the right side of the phone. I don't know if the Otterbox Commuter has an opening for it.

Yeah I don't plan to use them anyways but so far this case is very good but we'll see how it survives a fall which hopefully never happens
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Kraken does not have them either, nor does any high-protection case I have seen.
Would have to say the seidio active is my choice. After i tested it the hard way, due to me being sleep deprived. I was working inside my car engine bay and take off the phone due to getting in the way at times. I just so happened to forget it was in their and then started to drive away to get a drink. I finally realized what happen then went searching for it the case was scratch to heck, but the phone was safe
^ Mother of Buddha :-\
I have what I'm told is a Commuter for sale.. $20 shipped 405-259-2797
I like the little groove on my case from where the kickstand is too makes it feel nice when you hold the phone.
