There is a GOD, after 2 broken phones..

wish they had different colors black is lame

Why is Otterbox always so slow to release cases? This was okay years ago when high-end phones were few and far between. But seriously, it's been half a year since the E4GT was released. They need to get products to market faster; the bulk of their customer base has bought an expensive case from their competitors.

Finally. Gonna cop one of these tomorrow.

[RANT] Why do the fashion police have to get involved every time someone talks about a heavy duty case? These cases (Otterbox, Ballistic, etc) are meant to PROTECT your phone, not look cute and pretty. Not everyone is an IT geek that wears skinny jeans and thinks a phone is a fashion accessory. For some of us, our phones are TOOLS that get used in rugged environments and need some real protection. We will gladly throw a big, ugly, bulky case on our phones if it means they are protected.

bought mine saturday awaiting delivery i love otterbox cases
i also used a coupon code of tb1010y and got free 2-7 business day delivery

Considering my phone survived a 7 foot drop without a case, with minimal scratching... I can't imagine what it could survive in one of these cases.

Absolutely agree. And the commuter case doesn't look bad at all IMO.

Does anyone have this yet. I was wondering if it have a dust cover over the speaker? Looking at the pictures it doesn't. Have the Aegis Trident case now and was wondering if it was worth buying.

seidio innocase FINALLY!!!

http://www.seidioonline.com/category-s/4794.htm
at least its finally posted so we know for sure its real close!
Can you enlight me about this cases. What is so great about innocases?
Features, quality?
Looks good (judging based off of the Innocase for the Nexus One).
How might this case be better than say a TPU/Epik style case? Just curious.
These are the only cases I know of that you can also use with a holster.when I had it for my nexus there was also a option to upgrade to "rugged"which was perfect for me because I was doing construction.

I hope it's a slider style case and not a snap on. If it's like this one, I'll probably get it.

I second that! I usually use a holster with my phone and this case looks sweet. Otterbox won't be coming out with a defender case for our phone so I think this is perfect! I'm gonna us this for the daily and the TPU case when I need to go light
Nice. This is the kind of case I was looking for. It reminds me a bit of the Agent 18 cases for the iPhone (but slightly higher quality, it looks like).
Has anyone used these cases before on other phones? It looks like it has some rubberized material on the outside? Does it attract lint and dust? The official Gel case (which has now become slightly stretched and useless) continues to pick up every annoying piece of debris. I've given up and gone bare until something better (like this case) comes along.
Do a search for "innocase surface" on YouTube and you'll see a lot of reviews. They describe a slightly rubberized feel to the case, but apparently it isn't tacky and doesn't attract dust or lint.
Yes it is 2 pieces and it slides together. Its had that nice slightly rubberized feel to it but not too muck to their point it grips too much

Sold, sold, sold. I want this thing!
Do they typically sell these at T-Mo corporate stores? Or do you guys just get them online usually?
Great holster
I'm a big fan of the Seidio holsters. I've had one for my last few Blackberries. I tried several different holsters but I was traveling a lot and working in ceilings and not one of them lasted more than a month. The clip would inevitably break off. It happened once and I didn't notice until later. I had to spend over an hour looking for my phone that was on vibrate!
I chose the Seidio because it looked rugged. It never failed no matter how much I abused it. Now that I have an MT4G I'm really looking forward to getting one of their holsters for it. I've never used the Innocase, but I hightly recommend the holster. It's built very tough without looking like it. I don't see they have one listed yet for use without the case, but I'm hoping they'll make one.

meh when i had the nexus, the otterbox commuter is better than whatever crap and junk seidio sells *cough* batteries *cough* *cough* sorry i won't be giving my money to these assholes not even for $5.

Really, I bought a Otterbox Commuter for my Captivate and hated it and returned it the next day. The hard plastic looked cheap and the rubber was a lint magnet. I don't have experience with Seido cases but I bought a holster for my wife's iPhone4 and it's great.
Had an Innocase on my BB 8900 and It was good for the most part. It was one of the slide up ones. But It DID scratch the chrome part on the phone.
I did drop it multiple times on the floor and nothing happened the phone. BUT, one day it dropped about 3 feet down to concrete and the case cracked and wouldn't hold the phone well like it did before.
IT did fall on concrete almost that high before and nothing until that one day.
Also sliding the case off a couple of times messed up its sturdiness. Sturdiness as in, when I'd slide it up it stay on. after a while it wouldn't stay on well.
On my N1 I bought an Otterbox case and it was the best case I had. Even though it attracted lint and was hard to take off sometimes, I wouldn't buy any other case !
EDIT: got a battery from them for my N1. The thickness made me get rid of it. Come to find out the stock battery lasted way longer.
I thought the Innocase II is the one that was 2 pcs and snaps together.

Any word on Otterbox cases?

Last I heard there is a couple in the works but this pos gel one from tmobile sucks and I'm afraid of damaging my mt4g. (im in construction)
Has anyone got any release dates or new info about when they might be releasing some?
Thanks I'm advance!

Dunno about otterbox, but I know I have heard seidio has been putting up some solid cases..
Saw that that seido case but it looks pretty basic. Don't know if u have ever had an otterbox case or not but they look like they are damn near bulletproof. That seido case looks like is just a snap on cover for the back. Couldn't see any front views though

They also make the phone so much bigger it looks like you have a brick in your pocket.... lol ... nerd city
That defender case with the holster looks bad ass!
I have one on my ipod touch and yes its slightly bigger but not top bad. These phones are already big in the pocket and if a case makes them too big then you my friend need to stop wearing the skinny jeans lol

lmao! i want an impact series. not as thick as the defender but not real thin like the commuter but last i checked there only rolling out 2 casses for the time being and on alot of the phones with only 2 cases they are the defender and commuter so im worried i might have to go commuter and just be careful... my buddy has the defender on his 3gs and no doubt it is amazing (dropped it about 16ft without a scratch) and there not toooo huge but after less than a year the outter rubber has gotten fadded and stretched/loose and slides around on the outside and the built in screen protector is so scratched and hazed its impossible to see through it clearly so he might cut it out... i dont want to deal with that and being just as rough on my phone as him ill be in the same boat for sure.

Love the case switching from a sedio active case that took some damage after a fall lol. This is a little bigger but much more stylish and offers more protection. Cyanogen mod + blue case + cyanbread theme = matching phone and case. Sick

The problem is in the event of a drop those hard exterior cases chip or crack. The kraken does have a mix of hard spots and silicon and pocketing my phone hasn't been an issue.

The HC is way too big and feels unfinished when you take off the outside layer. for those of us who don't want to carry around a brick its a good alternative.

Yea it would pop off, and you could put it back on (it wasn't designed to come off). I would personally like my kickstand to stay in its... I guess it would be a socket of some type?
But yea, you get it.
I bought this case mostly because I don't have a desk job so I don't have a nice, safe place to put my new Evo. I had a BodyGlove for the Hero and that did the trick but the Evo is much larger and more expensive . Yea, it made it a beast but it's cheaper than 500 bux. It did come with a holster that keeps the screen to your inside, it comes with a screen protector and the front cover has one as well. There's also covers for the camera and LEDS built into the back. The kickstand though, that's a pos. With a little cutting I'm sure the stock kickstand would poke through just fine but it appears it may lean the phone back too much. 27.95 with free shipping:

Just realized this says "SC" case and I have the "HC" case. Ehh, whatever though. It's basically the same case just the HC one is definitely for those that have accidents with their devices. Not only that I paid less for the HC then they advertise the SC one for so that's another plus. Personally, I like it but if you don't have large hands you may find this a little cumbersome to deal with everyday.
After about 3 weeks with my Ballistic HC I could not be happier. This is by far the best case on the market for strength, looks, and durability. I have not had a single issue with my kickstand. I had read all the comments so I grabbed my kickstand and vigorously pulled and shook it. It did not budge one bit. Either it was redesigned or some of you are absolute cavemen lol. I'm assuming Ballisitic took care of the issue with a redesign

Sucks and hates are two different words but ok. And I guarantee the case I have is different than the defender. My last phone was in a defender case when it was damaged. This case was just released not to long ago and maybe the OP didn't know they have a tougher case that's also waterproof. Just a thought though, could be wrong.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
no need for water case i think i will look around for a cool case that has everything
The defender ends up peeling and the outer rubber part barely stays attached to the hard plastic. I've had THREE of the them, I hardly even use my phone and my pockets are never tight and the case never snags. I checked out the Armor by Otterbox today it feels much nicer but it's very expensive and is literally a brick.
The latest outer cases seem stiffer and less rubbery. Have had Ø problems with these...
Otherwise they'll just keep replacing them until you're happy.
Great CS....
Just got back from the beach with my otterbox armor series. No sand or water on my phone. Stayed in my pocket in and out of the water. I love this case.
Sent from Under water
I use TPU cases. They're like silicone cases, but they're a little more substantial and do a good job absorbing minor impacts. Plus, they're cheap and come in a variety of styles.
If your using a standard battery UAG is my favorite... rocks.

I had one. Worst case I've ever had. Even at my discounted price of $60 on release day. Way to bulky when a life proof is just as good and not only cheaper but slimmer. Also part of the speaker cover that makes it water proof the screen layer fell off and seemed to be held on with cheap glue or silicon. In 5 years I've never needed a water proof case bit I also take care of my phones. I'd go with a ballistic shell gel. Very nice case and still fairly slim
