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.

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...
Decided to take my case off today and take a look at my phone. The 2 seams where the sides are connected main body have started to leave marks on the hump on the back. Also the side above the volume buttons is a little loose because of the thin plastic so now I have slight scratches there too. Time for a new case.
I knew it was going to happen! I never buy cases anymore unless it's a flexible rubber type. A lot of these cases that are hard plastic often end up scratching phones. It's happened to me in the past so never again.
I have the same case without any scratches. I also take it out once or twice a day to make sure there is no grit in there doing damage.
The markings aren't that bad but you can see them in direct light. Hoping I can swap out the case tomorrow for something else.

Same thing happened to mine, I just returned the case and got me a different one. The case with the kickstand will scratch the phone.

Mine was still unscathed after 2 weeks with it. I also took it off every 1-2 days to make sure nothing got under it. I returned it on day 14 for the holster case combo at sprint since i needed a holster for work though.

How do u like the one with holster? I saw it in the store and am debating getting it
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
I like it a lot. It seems simmer and the matte rubber coating feels nice and helps keep debris out. I don't really use the holster but it fits nice and snug. Makes my phone about the same thickness as a naked evo 3d.

No scratches for me yet either and I remove it often to check and clean out the dust inside.
That's what I feared from my Epic. I was,waiting on reports about scuffs before buying it
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
For me, the only scratching/scuffing I have from this case is are on the edges that are not protected by the case. Actually, I just looked and was going to take a macro of the scuffs, but I couldn't really find anything that would even show up on camera - there really almost nothing. And no damaged caused by the case itself.
Some pics of the case for those interested:
I had a feeling this case was going to scratch my phone in the long run, so I returned it after a few days. Both the TPU and Case-Mate are better quality.
Wow guys that sucks the phone does not deserve the scratches from this case did you guys try the aluminum case
It scratched mine. Only used it for 2 weeks. Not real bad but is noticeable if I ever sell the phone
I also had the kickstand case, but I didn't like the fact that it didn't cover everything. I've still got it sitting here since I switched over to a skinomi carbon fiber wrap + screen protector covered with a casemate tough case. I figure whenever I go to sell this phone it will look just as good as day 1.
I just bought the two piece black hard snap on case from sprint. I think its kind of weird there aren't that many cases available for this phone yet. It was one of the most anticipated phones of the year and I don't see any otterbox or high quality cases like that. That aside I'm happy with the purchase of this case. It feels nice in your hand and is of good quality. I had plans to buy the kickstand case but now I will stay away. Good lookin out guys.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
So weird. I only have a ding where it doesn't cover when I dropped it on a rock laid driveway.
I really liked the look of this but was afraid of getting scuffs because of the way it mounts. I ordered a Case Mate Tough.
i've had mine since day one, no scratches at all, and it does come off quite a bit as I still try to boot into cwm from rom manager and it just hangs, so I have to pull the battery...etc etc...
glad i did not get this case if it does this
really curious about these cases

Please do I'm very interested in this case its the closest to an otter box case I've seen and want to know how well made it is
Im ordering my case today. I will report back when i get it

Just got it in. Put it on, and it makes the phone feel so much more stable. I'll post some pics later, but it fits like a glove just like the pics on their site. Nice and snug. No gaps anywhere. The inner part is really soft touch silicon almost squishy rubber feeling, and the outer layer is a hard shell plastic, but it has that soft felt touch. Very high quality. All the holes line up perfectly. I recommend it.
Any pictures?

Reminds me of the speck cases for the iphone, which is what i used because the iphone is a frickin egg... as an engineer, its currently the most effective design to minimize shock in the event of an impact.
Just ordered mine. Hopefully it's all it's cracked up to be!

Video Review - SGS2 Incipio Silicrylic Case
I like the case! IMHO it's the best one available out there right now for the SGS2 for T-Mobile. Much better than the Body Glove cases they sell at the T-Mobile store (yes I've tried them all). I give it a 9/10 watch my video review (first ever, so apologies in advance) here:

Have you tried any holster ( belt case) that would work would this?

Got the gray one in yesterday.
Easy to install, nice to the touch, looks pretty slick from the back. Sides are a little soft, but nothing major. The buttons are super easy to press, which is the complete opposite of the DSO case.

I have this case it's excellent. Fit is very good and it's very light. The sides have a little texture which makes it easier to grip and the button covers provide just enough resistance that I no longer have pushes happening when it's in my pocket. I was skeptical when I ordered it but I really can't think of anything I'd change about it - it's a fantastic case at a ridiculously good price.

Its the case Im rockin right now and it feels nice. Obviously it doesn't make a huge difference, maybe its in my mind, but i even removed the battery cover. Just my phone and the case. Works nicely on heat too

I think im going to order this sucker right now!
Wonder how this one stacks up against the $10 one from Diztronic? I have that model and it's also a pretty nice case. Think I'll go ahead and jump on one as well. But I'm still looking for something in the Aegis/Commuter range for protection. Anyone seen either of these two floating around? For some reason, I'm just not feeling the Case Mate offering. Maybe I should re-think that!
Is it that same one as this one: http://www.amazon.com/S-Line-Shell-Samsung-Galaxy-Sprint/dp/B005U30660/ ?
all these people have the case but no pics?

Looks identical - I expect they all come from the same factory in any case. But why get it from amazon for $7.50 when you can get it on ebay for $2?
Just ordered my Epic Touch from Amazon yesterday (upgrading from an Evo 4G).. figured at this price, it'll at least be good enough to use until I find one that I like better... if I dont like this one
Whoo got the the case today and it feels amazing on the hands.
I sometimes think the phone is to thin and I can't grab it so well. I have used it for an hour now and I could already feel myself enjoying using my phone alot better.
The phone has some grooves on the sides that feels pretty snug and some what rugged.. Maybe it's so it doesn't slip out of your pocket. Which will benefit me since I use the phone for music and the gym alot.
Now I can lay my phone down on the counter with worrying about scratching the screen or the camera

So I'm browsing through the electronics section at Wal-Mart looking for a wireless mouse and I happen to stumble upon a new case for our phone. At first I'm thinking, "Oh, so now we have an Otterbox Defender!" Then I look at the box and it's a Body Glove!
I looked online for this case, but cannot even find it on the Body Glove website. I took a few pictures of it. It looks pretty good. It's a little bulky, but not too much. Very sturdy. The case is three parts - two for the inner hard plastic and one for the outer rubber-like shell. It's much easier to install than the Otterbox cases, but really feels just as protective - for less as well (paid less than $40). I said "Defender-like", so yes it comes with a holster - and it's almost identical to the Defender holsters.
Have any of you guys seen this case in any local stores? It feels like a pretty good one.
I haven't seen one in stores yet...because i have not been looking for one. I will see if i can find it...

OK, here are photos of the case this thread is talking about. Not much info on the case itself, and I threw the box away pretty quickly.
I took pictures of the box in the store. Its like $38. They show up fine in my gallery, so not sure why tapatalk is turning them sideways.

Apparently this is very new. Military tested specs, and it feels and looks much better than the Otterbox. I'm using a Thunderbolt for work with the Otterbox Defender. They look similar from a distance, but the look and feel in your hands is not even close. They also had one for the GS3. After several days of use, this has to be the best looking, best feeling, sleekest (relatively speaking, of course) heavy duty shock resistant case I've owned (and I've owned quite a few over the years).

Got this today and just luving it. Had the Body Glove Diamond white case before and it was a good quality but the Tough Suit case is perfect. Not too thick, built like a tank, this is the new batmobile from Christian Bale's Batman Trilogy if the other thin and slick cases are the stealthy slick batmobiles from the past xD
How are the buttons? Are they nice and tactile or stiff and mushy? That's what's bugging me about the D30 Impact case. The buttons are way too stiff and mushy (and before someone says I should hit the gym, I'm no chump. I can press them just fine, it's just annoying).

I'm using this case as well and it fits perfectly and adds the exact amount of weight and size to it. Only thing was I got ripped off haha I think I paid 20 something for it and saw it on amazon for less than half of that. But I needed a case asap.

My co-worker has one of these on his black T989, he's happy with it, however I don't believe he's ever really dropped it so no drop-test experience with it. Oh, and those cases were also being sold at the T-Mobile store, for $29.95 label, no discount for clearing stock.

Got my Body Glove Diamond case a week ago and reviewed it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2004609
I also bought the black body glove case at Walmart and after 24 hours I'm loving it. The only gripe I had was the built in screen protector. I have zagg so I took a razor knife and cut it out. Couldn't ask for a better case.
I want one of these cases, but I can't find it anywhere.
Love my seidio active case and holster. Better than my old phones otterbox!
Just saying!
