Hybrid TPU Cases for EVO

10/23/2010 edit: I no longer recommend these cases. Neat idea, but they just don't last. If you want a thin case I'd go pure TPU. Personally I'm now using the Otterbox Commuter and not looking back. Excellent case.
Just ordered these 2 bad bays... they are called hybrid cases. found the link in another thread here on XDA. The back is made out of hard Poly Carb and the sides are made out of soft TPU. I picked em up on ebay... so what do you guys think? i'm pretty pleased. the TPU is very soft so the buttons are very very easy to press compared to other TPU cases I've used. Only problem I see is the PC back will probably scratch up quicker then a full TPU case would. The white & clear makes the white evo look how HTC should of made it look. kinda strange that they made the sides black on the white evo.

Blue & Clear Hybrid (sorry, out of focus)

Very nice. How tight is the fit? Will the case come off if I slide the phone in my back jean pocket?

Very nice. Mine should be here tomorrow. I love white cases.

Yes these are VERY nice cases! I just got mine in the mail last week. Ordered from Ebay Store Monster Accessories. The Cool part is... if you take off your original cover.. then you get all red!! Its pretty nice!

Looks good. Glad the buttons are easy to press. I ordered a black with smoke back that should be here any day.

definitely not. that's the only down side to the case so far actually, its not the easiest to take off.

like so?
looks pretty good! i think i like it with the white better though. I hope the Poly Carb back doesn't scratch up my battery cover, I've only used TPU before and that's too soft to scratch a phone, but PC definitely could. I'll keep my eye on it.

And you have no problems with the power or volume button? My frosted white TPU from evocase was great except for the button problem. Its just too hard to press. Also can you give a link so I could order the correct one. Many thanks.

sorry to ask but how much did it cost you?
mines cost 8.95 free shiping because after i saw this thread i looked on ebay and there where very expensive.
the link i bought it from is this one http://cgi.ebay.com/CLEAR-White-Sof...30415250927?pt=PDA_Accessories#ht_2989wt_1137

Be careful with these.. I have the clear/white model shown at the top. 2 days after geting them, there are stress cracks by the hole for the camera and the speaker. I called daydeal to rma and return then figured out its not worth it and just keep the one I got

just ordered mine, looks like exactly what im lookin for.

Juss. Order this case from the same site these are gorgeous... can wait till it comes

Man that's just ugly! What's wrong with just black?

Just an FYI, daydeal.com has an ebay store as well and you can save around 2-4 by buying from there instead. I just got the hybrid red and clear case for $9.50.
stores.ebay.com/daydealdaydeal <-- not a typo

does this case protect the cammera lens?

Trying to decide between this or a full TPU case to replace the Innocase II.
Any idea how this case would fit in the Innocase holster?

Got mine with the black border and smoke back today. Overall I am very pleased. Pressing the power and volume buttons is as easy if not easier than without a case at all. I love the look because you can see the HTC and sprint logos through the back. It will likely scratch easier though. The biggest downside is it's not as snug around the sides as I would like. Specifically I have a bulge on the upper left side that doesn't fit snug against the side. Could be just the one I got though.

I got a clear on clear and the fit is great. it fits snugly, camera is recessed, kickstand has a 1 mm border unprotected, but its not a dealbreaker. i didnt want the kind without the individual speaker/flash/camera cutouts. this one has them. i also didn't want one of the kind with the diamond pattern. i like this case a lot. Purchased Friday, recvd Monday. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400143134032
4.99 free shipping.
***Note - I am not a case fan, but I'm a klutz. My requirement was a 100% clear, non bulky case. I searched for over an hour and my choices were out of the one i got, and a 100% clear all TPU case. I feel that maybe the all tpu would have fared better in a drop. (This is the closest I could find to what I wanted... not 100% clear but close, with individual cutouts http://www.amazon.com/HTC-Evo-Flexi-Skin-Case/dp/B003X6BVX8/ref=sr_1_47?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1281690779&sr=1-47) I love my case, and in the end I think it looks less cheap than the 100% TPU.***

All I know is that my Innocase II Blows! It's loose and a bit bulky. I think I'm going to test drive one of these. Oh..and I paid freaking 26 bucks for the Seido!

Amzer Luxe Argyle TPU case... (pictures)

perfect case for me, as im a big fan of the TPU cases in cases in general, had some for my Blackberry before i bought my Captivate.... the cutouts for the charger port/headphone jack/speaker/camera are all perfect, the case fits snug, volume and power buttons arent restricted at all. the case doesnt add much bulk, and the TPU material adds a sure grip on the device.
only dislike i have is the color, i ordered Blue and i thought itd be more of a royal blue, rather than the almost turquoise-ish color that i received. no bother though, ive already put in an order today for the smoke gray.

Looks great. Waiting for pictures of the smoke grey one when that comes in . Big fan of these type of cases but I'd prefer a simple black/dark grey without patterns.

Are the Power/Volume buttons covered or opened?

How's the overall fit? Loose? There are reviews on vibrant amzer cases on amazon and they say they fit loose.

Thanks for the pictures. Looks like a great case except I can't get over the pattern... it makes me sad. Is it too much to ask for a plain black or plain clear tpu case without funky patterns?

yeah argyle is so 90s

I just ordered the lime green version of this

yeah, i wish there was a clear one, but i was waiting for a tpu case from the time i bought the phone so i went ahead and bought this one. hopefully someone comes with a clear one soon though.

What is tpu? Hard or soft, or both? Just wondering because i have a clear plastic case over the phantomskinz white chromatics carbon fiber skin, and lets just say its a tight squeeze. I just ordered a clear gel case from mr. hit and I don't think its gonna cooperate with my belt pouch very well. Something like this IMO would look great over the white chromatics skin. I know it sounds like overkill but I am a freak about protection as I resell all of my old phones to party for the new ones.

TPU is a medium between hard and soft.... its a plastic, a rather firm plastic, but it bends|flexes|gives, but always retains its elasticity - no matter how many times you might put it on and take it off of your phone, itll never get loose and worn, messing up its fit on the device. also does a decent job of shock absorption in the event of drops.

Cool thanks. Wondering now if it will fit well over the chromatics

i'd like one of those but in a dark purple or black

I love this case because it's different than the usual Body Glove case from AT&T that everybody has. I got the clear one and it is a little grippier than the Body Glove case but I like having that extra grip in the hand.

Great TPU Case for Captivate
I bought purple, green and hot pink for my Cappy. I love these. They fit the phone perfectly. No loseness. But easy enough to remove to switch out colors. I wasn't that wild about the argyle pattern either but this is the only TPU type case which is what I had and loved on my iPhone. TPU material is good for gripping but slides in and out of your pocket easily unlike silicone.

I bought the purple and it's a real nice shade.

Someone else posted pictures of the smoked grey on androidforums

Looks like I might have to pick this one up sometime, too.

Do you have a screen protector of any kind on your Captivate?
P.S: Also, what camera were those photos taken with!?

does anyone have it in red and can share pics?
i'd love to see pics of the other colours like purple or green, etc

OP please cut your nails, I almost lost my soda when I saw that, and there seems to be dirt under them as well, and maybe a small hair.

Looks like an Otterbox knockoff, but at $12.00 shipped it's gonna be hard to pass up for those looking for a case with great shock/drop protection qualities

I ordered 2 of those from Amazon and should be here Tuesday and Friday. It seems there's a delay on the white one. I had Ballistic case before on my Amaze 4G and have dropped it from about where my pocket is and not a scratch on the phone. I hope this case offers the same protection as it cost less than $30 shipped for both.

I like how the hard shell wraps around the sides, unlike the Incipio. I don't like the giant hole for the camera, speaker, and flash. Three separate holes would be better. I guess it's cheaper to make one big hole. For that price, though, I'm interested in reading some reviews!

Thank you for the information about this case. I ordered one through the link you provided.

I received my black/black Acase today and i must say that not only it looks thin still, but also feels better protected compared to thin cases. Its like having otterbox but a lot less bulky. Still waiting for the white/black version and then I'll take pics to post.

Give us pics now! Please ? I'll order one if its nice.

The Black/Black is exactly like the one in the first post. I ordered a second one which is White/Black. I will post pictures of boths for comparison. Meantime, you can check them out here.

Looks almost exactly like the incipio case I just got but a little bit bulkier at the lip/rim.... But for 12 bucks not a bad trade off.

Hi I had a quick question my friend got the Acase for his iphone but one thing I noticed was the backing or hard shell was really slippery which made him return it in the end. Hows the hard part on this is it a smooth plastic or slippery?

Its actually quite a bit different. Look at where the outer shell wraps around the inner liner on both cases.

Yeah I see what you are talking about

I had this case for my 3D and it worked very well, it cracked around the bottom on the hard shell but this was after many falls and some abuse. I am ordered one now and recommend them, last I remember is that the back side is smooth but not all that slippery.
On a side note if anyone is getting their phone from Best Buy they have a special going on where you get a Zagg screen protector and the Platinum Case with a separate swivel holster for $40. Case alone was $35 bucks, I will try to take some pics later.

I got this the other day and really like it (especially for the price). I was a big fan of the Case-Mate Tough Case for my iPhone 4 previously and this is very comparable. The biggest thing I've noticed about this case is the indent below the home button. This is a HUGE feature to me because it makes hitting the, fairly small, home button easy.
I had stupidly bought a Ballistic Case from the store and the lip on the front was so bulky it almost ran flush with the bottom of the home button and made it really hard to press naturally. I wrote a review on amazon for the black version with pictures.
For the price this thing is awesome. I'm thinking of getting the white/black one now that's its available on amazon.

Ya, I have no problems with them. They push easily but so much so that they get hit inadvertently. It's natural enough that I didn't even think about mentioning that in the review.

How does this case compare to the incipio dualpro silicrylic?

No clear/transparent cases to reveal the back?

You could try this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Minisuit-Ultr...=1386219791&sr=8-5&keywords=moto+x+clear+case

I can't personally speak for that one, but I can for these:

http://www.amazon.com/Cruzerlite-Ex...=1387406862&sr=8-7&keywords=cruzerlite+moto+x
Only the symbols/lines and sides are completely transparent, but I thought they looked nice with the custom backs. They are also very snug and solid. So tight, in fact, that you need to be very careful putting it on if you have a screen protector.
Also, it's B2G1 on those.

Air Jacket is clean and shows off the back and our corporate logo perfect.
Good protection have dropped 2 times both glass 1st and back 1st no damage.
Plus the side case edge matched the Moto X choice great for the buttons and camera ring.
You can feel the dimple on the phone as that part of the case is open.
Power Supply was a little slow to respond on questions on there FB page but very happy with the product!

I bought one from Ebay and it is okay. The price was less than $5. Since I am a new member, I can't post outside links but it is called " Moto X Clear Slim TPU".

I decided not to use a case on mine. I am using a pouch and I'll use the bumper on occasion. My ideal case is a matte bumper with clear button covers.

SUPCASE
I just bought a SUPCASE and love it for the extra protection over my Bear Motion one. Both on Amazon. The SUPCASE has a clear back with black edges. Perfect for showing off the Moto X Dev Ed Black with White back if you ask me.

Bad decision, got this case..installed it...but it seemed to have an odd effect on google now...ie the response was poor..so tried taking the case man...it was so painful...

I received my power supply air jacket case today. I like it a lot. The fit is perfect. I wish the back were more grippy, but the edges are just grippy enough.

There are at least 5-10 on eBay that are hard clear cases. I bought two different ones for $3 each. Look harder!

Finally an Ultra Thin Case I love - Elago

So, I was looking for a new skin on my phone when I realized that I didn't want to do a wrap. If you're like me, you'll spend $10 and then remove the skin in like a week. After that you'll have to buy another one if you want to go through the process again. I'm not 100% into cases because of bulk and this is a damn sexy phone.
I scoured a few different places looking for a white thin case when I came across this: ELAGO THIN CASE
Here are my pros:
Fit is perfect
Cut outs are exact
This actually feels like it could be part of the phone
Has a Matte White look
Not TPU, its a hard plastic
Lots of compliments just in one day
Cons (Keep in mind, these are things people may not like but doesn't bother me)
Phone is still a little slippery
Buttons are now a bit more flush with the case
Zero lip over the glass to put upside down
The cut outs are exact so accessories are about 1mm from being perfect
I'm going back for the other two colors. This is an awesome case. Does anyone else have any ultra thin cases they can recommend.

Nope. User a screen protector.. Cases with lips exist. This is for absolute minimalists.

Just went to the mailbox to get the Elago case I ordered after seeing this thread. I'm coming from the Spigen Slim case and, even by comparison, the Elago is ridiculously thin! I love it, but it definitely needs to be paired with a screen protector in order to keep the phone somewhat safe.

It is probably not nearly as thin as that case, but I usually buy Ringke Fusion cases for every phone I get. I love the way it adds the extra tactile feel to the buttons, and has saved me from many drops even on asphalt and hard concrete. I'm not sure how it is on the S8+ yet as my S8+ is not here yet. but I've used Ringke Fusion cases on OP3T, Nexus 6P, Nexus 6, Xperia Z3, and I have loved it on every phone.

Not even close.

Just a heads up. The Elago scratches and scuffs pretty easily. Not that I expected much from such an inexpensive case but, I've been babying my black Elago and, within 24 hours it already has 4 or 5 long scuff marks across the back. Not a big deal, just thought I'd mention. It would've been nice if they had used the same type of rubberized finish found on the Spigen and Ringke slim cases.

Needs a top and bottom lip. Put your phone face down and it will scratch.
