Otterbox Defender Pre-Order $26.99 with FSSS

NOT SUCH A HOT DEAL. When you consider all the complaints on the kickstand breaking and the flimsy soft plastic that often tears at the port covers. BUYER BEWARE!!!

When do you think 3rd parties like Amazon, Best Buy and Sprint will carry the Defender for EVO?

OtterBox Amazon and other online retailers should have them within a week or so. Best Buy will be carrying online initially at BestBuy.com.

This price is current as of 10:30 PM EST 11/7/2010. Amazon prices change rapidly.

NOTE: IT LISTS SHIPPING TIME AS 1-2 MONTHS!!! But it may take longer or shorter. Rumors say it will ship this month.
NOTE: Under Product Description it lists the name as Impact: "Product Description
The OtterBox Impact Series is a durable silicone skin...]"
...however, on the invoice it only lists DEFENDER and makes no mention on Impact Series. Due to this discrepancy, I am adding YMMV to this deal. However, this does not really concern me as the title says Defender and the Impact has no current wait, therefore, there is more than enough reason to believe it is the Defender. I have never had issues with Amazon with similar description issues in the past.
From the Otterbox Facebook page, Otterbox reminds us that all coupon codes are case sensitive.
Jay E Hey guys, I just got my Evo defender for 40$ with free shipping! Use these 2 codes tb1010y (10% off/free shipping) & MEMUEVO5 (5$ off) (coupon is case sensitive) . They both stack. Enjoy 15$ off!

That is not entirely true. you get 10% off which EQUALS free shipping. NOT 10% PLUS free shipping. the total savings is $10. still a great deal though

If you order through Otterbox, you may have to call in, their servers have been crashing.

If you need a case soon or now you may be better off going with the Trident Cyclops or Seidio Rugged. However, I do not suggest the Seidio Rugged as I have 2 and they're both falling apart. The upgraded/seperate screen protector is necessary on the Cyclops. The Ballistic cases may be released this month as well.

Defender on sale at Amazon confirmed as of 11/7/10 11 pm
Confirming OP. Defender on sale through Amazon direct. Must be coming out soon!
http://www.amazon.com/Otterbox-Defender-Shield-HTC-Black/dp/B0043GWDZ2/ref=cm_cr_pr_sims_t
Edit: then again..maybe not..says ships in 1 to 2 months. Does anyone know if Amazon charges when you order or when your item ships? I know for unreleased video games, your card is charged when the item ships but I don't know about non game items.

I see $49.95
nevermind. Previous link was to a different seller at $49.95. Amazon is selling for $29.95
Note that it says Usually Ships in 1 or 2 MONTHS

Thanks for posting the link! I can't believe I forgot that.
For everyone who doesn't frequent Amazon...on the right side there is an area that says "More Buying Choices", this box may have Amazon.com as a seller or it may be the default seller, I'm not sure how they program their code to decide which you see as default.
1-2 months is possible. Rumors say this month, but rumors have been saying that for months!!!
I'm in for 2 because my Seidio Rugged's are falling apart, but they'll hold up until the Otterbox Defender is released.......................................................................unless the Trident Kraken beats them to the market

That's weird. From my point of view, the link I gave does go to the 26.99 version. I'll just chalk it up to some crazy property about Amazon's site. As long as you found it. Actually..I believe Amazon moved it to a different page just that quick.
Here's a screenie of what I initially saw before Amazon changed it:

Just ordered mine, $26.99. Thanks for the heads up OP

Just ordered one also! Crossing my fingers that it comes out in a reasonable time. On facebook otterbox did say that it is in the manufacturing process a few days ago.

Ordered mine as well OP. $26.99 with free super saver shipping. awesome! great find.

From a discussion page on Facebook:
Random Person: NOV 17 DEFENDER CASE FOR EVO SHIPS!!!!!!!!
OtterBox: Fingers crossed, cause it isn't too much longer now. The date didn't come from us, but we are working hard to get them out asap!​

Awesome!!
I already have a Commuter case, good for interim was waiting on this one!!
Just scored it for 28.61 with tax, shipped!
Even if it takes a few weeks more than Otterbox I can deal with wait for the price.
Thanks OP!

No problem, I am using the crappy Seidio Rugged, can't wait for the Defender, hopefully the build quality is good. Sorry you live somewhere you have to pay Amazon tax, I buy way too much from Amazon...

You and me both. Both Amazon and EBay make it way too easy to buy something. Just click this button and it's mine? Don't mind if I do...

I wasn't happy with my Seidio Rugged holster, but I don't use the holster much anyhow...but I would like a good one, it would be nice to carry at work.

the only thing i didnt like about the rugged was the opening for the usb port. i did cut it and it works well.. of course it doesnt look like it came that way since i did cut it and its not smooth but it works well..
i have the rugged away but im using the active now... out of all thats out there now with a holster, i think sedio is the best ( IMO)
like i said, i would like to see the otter box before i get it. i just wish it had a clip on the top like the sedio holster has. just feels more secure

I accidentally ripped off that usb port, my wife also accidentally ripped the headset jack area off. That plastic on the Seidio Rugged is just way too thin.
I snapped the top of my holster off, the design didn't work for me...but take that with a grain of salt, cause if it's breakable, I'll break it.

I still haven t been charged yet and I think it's been 48 hours, so I'm guessing they don't charge until it ships. I went ahead and got the 30 day Prime trial so I'm getting mine overnighted for $30 shipped, not too bad!

Ordered off Amazon. For the price you can't beat it. Hopefully it comes sooner than later.

$33.94 now. Listed as in stock on Otterbox.com.

I just received the Black/Grey Ballistic in the mail 2 days ago. It is pretty impressive compared to the Defender, but its just too large for me. I don't need that much protection. If anyone wants to take if off my hands PM me. It's still in the retail packaging and the protective film is still in tact. I'll do $30 shipped which I think is the cheapest you can find it. If you see it cheaper let me know and I'll beat it. Also, I go to the post office every day at 5:30 CST so if you pay before then it will ship the same day.

I forgot I posted this on here. I still have this available if anyone wants it. I'll make sure I remember to check my PM's.
thanks,

DealExtreme TPU Case (Cheap!)

For anyone in the market for an ultra-cheap Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) case, DealExtreme has started carrying a translucent case for our phones.
I just happened across this while browsing DealExtreme, so I have no idea what the quality is, but the price is certainly right at $2.30 shipped.
This being DealExtreme, of course you'll have to wait a few weeks for it to arrive if you buy one.\
Edit: Whoops, forgot the link:
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/protective-tpu-back-case-for-samsung-sgh-t989-translucent-white-93678

Ye I got mine from karendeals.com. Tpu argyle printed on the inside-super slim. Well worth the 2-3 dollars. I dont know if they meant to but they sent me 3 but I paid for 2.

Links....?

here's the link, looks interesting
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/protective-tpu-back-case-for-samsung-sgh-t989-translucent-white-93678

I'm placing an order.
For $2.30, I can afford to order it and toss it if I don't like it.
I have a D30, but hate the bubbles on my realook. Maybe this will fit better.

yeah i got one of those as well
although i must say i like the D3O cases better
if the D3O was not free, i would have stayed with that transparent TPU from DX
which is the same one i'm using on Nexus S
it gives a very good grip and feel to the phone

Awesome. Placed an order right away. Was looking for one of these cases. Thanks a lot.

I was just about to order this on the bay 5pack for $9.90,,black, white, blue, purple, and red. Give the gf whichever one she wants as I got her a sgs2 when I got mine. They call it swerve case on the bay. Does anyone know how much bulk it adds?

Just wondering has anyone got their order shipped yet? Its been a few days now and still no response.

Otterbox Cases Price Cut on Amazon!

Just wanted to share that I noticed that Amazon is now carrying the Otterbox Commuter and Defender cases directly from their own warehouse.
I bought a Commuter from Amazon not even a month ago for about $20 and the price of the same case dropped by $5.
Defender cases also had a significant drop in pricing as well.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1389517282&pf_rd_i=507846
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1389517282&pf_rd_i=507846
*Also, Super Saver Shipping is available on both products.

happy with my trident kraken, but this is a GREAT deal for those interested! good find.

a bit to late for me, i bought the UAG a few hours before your post. i think i would have bought the defender instead for just 20$, but nvm, extra 14$ was paid for a more suited case in my eyes

If I hadn't picked up a commuter case at bestbuy two weeks ago this would be perfect. I'm only out a few bucks I guess.

Thanks so much ! Ordered a white one !

Looks like ill be buying myself the atomic defender or green commuter!

I've used Otterbix for years. Literally on e eey device I have had. Got a black commuter from sprint 2 days ago. Just returned. Man what a pain In the add to get it on and off. I mean, I e never had that much trouble with a commuter. So bummed out. But I did notice the price drop last night. I may try the defender this time. Either way, thanks for the heads up for people who don't know :thumbup:

I wouldn't touch these even with your money.
These are 99% likely to be counterfeit cases since they are sold outside of Amazon direct at a price that is WAY outside the norm for Otterbox cases on sale.
Same for all those counterfeit microSD card deals we keep seeing popping up.
If it's too-good-to-be-true, then..... well you know.

got mine. seems pretty legit, retail packaging and everything.
