Guys, I just went to Verizon and picked up the OEM Verizon Shell case + holster combo for Droid X, the shell is useless as another XDAer posted in a different thread. But the holster is just perfect. The Captivate with Body Glove case slides in and out perfectly but it is also just snug enough where it won't slide out even if you are running with it on. The holster also rotates 180 degrees. You really can't find a better holster in my opinion.
Anyways hxxp://cgi.ebay.com/SHELL-HOLSTER-OEM-MOTOROLA-DROID-X-MB-810-VERIZON-/200513150403?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2eaf83ddc3
Only $14 with free shipping. I paid like $34 at verizon with tax. Gonna return it once this ebay order comes in.
I'm looking for the best protective case out there. Money isn't an issue at all. All I want is the protection, built in screen protection (like the defender) and a belt holster. Any ideas?

Trident aegis case best case period !!!!
I honestly think the Samsung Galaxy SII is by far the best phone right now and will be for the next 2 years. At least for me
My first smart phone was the Motorola XT720 which was a big bulky and extremely slow phone with hardly no internal storage out of the box. I purchase an Otterbox case for the first time and was happy.
Then a friend of mine at work switched from a Blackberry to the Samsung Galaxy S. I immediately talked my carrier into renewing my contract just so I could get the Galaxy S! I purchased the Otterbox Commuter Case. I applied the screen protector which came with the case and after 4-5 months realized I left the screen protectors, protective layer on by accident. After removing it made the phone look brand new again.
Now after being extremely patient I have abandoned my contract and switched carriers to upgrade to the Galaxy SII from Sprint. My only complaint so far is the fact that I cannot purchase an Otterbox which comes with an awesome screen protector all for one price.
I've already contacted Otterbox and the International Case will not fit the American Sprint GS2, and they don't have plans to make a case for it either.
So now I'm left with all the other mediocre choices. Anyone out there agree, in the same boat with a good second runner up.

Can you post the link please.
As of right now, I think the only heavy duty case/holster combo for the E4GT is the Seidio Convert. I took a Ballistic HC case for the Infuse and modded it to fit my E4GT and it works great.

I know of Casemate & Ballistic, but the Otterbox cases have the part that overlaps and goes around the front face of the speaker on the front of the phone, and at the bottom. Is there one like that for this phone, or am I stuck between the Ballistic & Casemate?
I have the Ballistics case and I'm very happy with it. Just use a seperate screen protector. I've wanted an Otterbox myself, to be honest, but they have some drawbacks from what I hear. I've never owned one, though.
Both the Ballistics case and Zagg screen cover come with lifetime warranties too, if I'm not mistaken.

Unfortunately Otterbox doesn't make a case for our phone. Thankfully we have some pretty decent choices, however.
I use the: Case Mate Pop case for the Epic 4g Touch
Also very popular are: Ballistic Case for Epic 4g Touch and the Trident Aegis Case for the Epic 4g Touch
I think once the case mate wears out for me I'll probably switch to the aegis. The ballistic looks too large for my tastes, but its completely opinion. I bet the ballistic would protect the phone the most.
I also wanted an Otterbbox case. When I bought the phone it came with the Ballistic case and I hated the odd corners. I decided to go with the Black Trident Aegis and haven't looked back. Been with the phone for about a month now and I'm very happy with this case. Love it more than my otterbox commuter on my Evo 4g and Evo 3D.
The corners of the Ballistic case are what I like most about it. The way they protrude provides a uniquely secure grip, especially in landscape mode, or doing, what I call, the hands-free shoulder-face maneuver.
It's hard to explain, but they allow the phone to be held in very awkwardly positions, such as underneath your chin, without breaking a sweat (or your $400 phone).

Trident Aegis is, in my opinion, the best case for this phone. It is very protective, has screens over the mic and speaker to stop debris from coming in, and the case actually makes the side buttons easier to press. I've always used otterbox, and I've found the Trident Aegis to be a perfect replacement.
Got it here:

The Case Mate Pop case is very very similar to an Otterbox Commuter, and comes with a built in kickstand.
It does it's job pretty well too. Last night in I was in a pretty upset mood with someone on the phone and I threw it as hard as I could against the wall and the phone was fine. The case is fine too.
ballistic all day
Looks like Otterbox finally got around to making a case for the Epic Touch. Two actually, the defender and the commuter.

Casemate tough case
I got the casemate tough case online for $16. It seems very similar to the otterbox I had for my EVO. If you want to pay for the name, go ahead baller.
P.S.
I have not thrown it off a 10 story building or run it over with a car, so I can't honestly say if stands up to the otterbox legends.
Try Tuf Tek,its only $5 on amazon and I bet its just as good if not better than these $20-30 cases.
I own one and it has good grip and side buttons are easy to press.I never owned Trident or other expansive cases but I really dont see what extras they cam have that this case dont.
Here is one I bought http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005U3OQK2/ref=redir_mdp_mobile ,only thing that color is little off.
I would love for someone to buy one and compare it to othe more expansive cases.

I couldn't bring myself to fork out $50 for a case I can't try on first. I instead ordered the Ballistic SG from Amazon for $19 (and the company gave me free 'first class' shipping!)
I had the same case for my Nexus S 4G so I know what to expect, and it was $30 cheaper

Yeah, bought that guy for 8 bucks. Hopefully it won't suck.
Otterbox Commuters and Defenders should be at the Sprint stores by the end of next week
Originally had the default verizon black holster case, but got an aluminum back and a clear cruzerlite case to show it off.
I still wanted to holster the phone so I tryed to put it in the holster and it still fit.
I think its a good look!
very nice
that's a very good combination you got going there:good:
Very good

Just got this for my GS3 and absolutely love the case. Bulk wise it is about the same as an otterbox defender but not quite as heavy. Extremely fast and easy to remove the outer skeleton and silicon cover and leave just the surface case on the phone. My otterbox broke the second time I removed it from my phone. Otterbox replaced it and i promptly returned it to best buy for a refund. I sent the broken one back to otterbox. The holsters belt clip is considerably larger than the otterbox. Good for me because I leave the holster on my toolbelt. The defenders holster would not clip over my toolbelt so it was useless to me. I originally bought the platinum surface case/holster combo from best buy so I have an extra surface case and holster to use. So far i recommend this case, will probably be the last case I buy for my GS3. Purchased from ebay for 32.00
