current best full body protection - Thunderbolt Accessories

so i hear zagg is not way to go....after many forums searches i still cant find what really covers the entire phone and a lot of the threads are dated
anyone have current info on what does? and what is the best? if anyone has pics id appreciate it
also, are all of these thin enough to fit in the car dock? it looks like carbon fiber ones might be too bulky

Seidio offer a two piece solution that I still uses from time to time. I have the plastic kickstand version (before they went with the metal setup). Works well while being as slim as can be.
EDIT. I'm talking about the extended case version.
I'm also using a GNEX right now and I do have a Seidio case with the plastic kickstand. I love the case as well.

I use Platinum Series Deluxe.
Available at Best Buy. It's 3 pieces in the case itself, and then has a holster.
It's a plastic/rubber sleeve, then you put a silicone cover over that, and then you top off the silicone with a hard plastic cover that secures it all down.
Much better than otterbox, in my opinion.
However, a screen protector will be needed.
Covers all buttons, leaves the kick stand available, covers the charging port but has a way to fold it over so your phone can be charged with the case on, covers the headphone jack with a way to fold it over and access it with the case on, even covers the camera lense and also has a built in flap door that you can easily pull back to use your camera.
I recommend this case to anyone.
No more bulky than an otterbox either.

Ditto! Any one have any luck on protection without a case? I'm unable to find one that doesn't make the phone bulky.

Only thing about the 3 piece seidio case I didn't Like was that the 2 pieces that slide over the phone causes the screen protector to move too .. letting air bubbles get in.. dirt too

Best gel case/cover

I know of amzer and a few others but just looking for everyones general preference to see If I have missed any.
And for the record I don't like the argyle look. Takes away from the looks of mah future phone.
I ordered the Innocase from Seidio. I had one for my Mogul that I really liked: http://www.seidioonline.com/category-s/4213.htm
It's harder than gel but has a soft finish that keeps it from slipping in your hand.
Ah , I see the seidio acces finally came online. Nice!
Too bad I'm not a real fan of their cases. : (
Although I do like the innocase's . Very nice but I hate not being able to try first. It says it doesn't add much in thickness but .....what a frickin pain this is.
Argh!

Its looks like these are kinda like the gel ones just made of plastic right? Pretty thin..I noticed you can get a clip for it also. Do you know without the clip there is nothing on the back of this case that adds bulk because of the missing belt clip is there?
thanks
Site says that it's 1mm think so that would be about as thin as you could hope for and still get some protection. The belt clip is actually a separate holster that the phone clips into. They have a set where you get the phone protector/case and the belt holster together. The holster is built to accommodate the slightly larger size when the EVO is in the case.
I´ve bought a frosted gel Hard Cover for my EVO 3D from HTC Addicted on Facebook .
It looks and feels great and is really resistant.
I got a discount because i like the Facebook page =)
I bought the cheaper of the two otterboxes. I have the more expensive, defender I believe its called, but it just made my phone too thick and it was hard to get out of my jeans. So I bought the one beneath it... can't remember name lol but I really really like it. Its half gel and half plastic providing enough protection while making it easy to remove from pocket. . I think its like 20$ on amazon

otterbox
I highly recommend the trident kraken. It's thick and it may be hard to take out of your pockets if you're wearing jeans, but the protection is unmatched.
hai all,,
im in indonesia and its really hard to find softjacket or silicone for my evo,,can u advice to me where i can buy that stuff?
of course with the best price and free shipping if there from other country
thanx
I had a body glove case that was pretty nice, it was grippy enough to stay in my pocket when wanted and slick enough to come out when I grabbed it. It also had a nice warranty, like a year or so, and I used that a lot. The thing broke every month or so, but kept my EVO in tip top condition. Now I don't use a case though, I am close to my upgrade and trust the phone to hold up.
No case or screen protector here.. over 2 years and no issues..
just saying..

I believe youre talking about the commuter series I've had two of those and a body glove case the otterbox's broke within a week of having them the body glove even less. The defender series is great though definitely get that. I wouldn't normally use a screen protector but otterbox's is on a different level from cheaper ones it improves the touchability if thats a thing.

Truthfully verizons body glove case is best for non bulkyness.Very stable fits well .ect.
I like my body glove
Personally I have tried the Body Glove case and I like the Otter Box Commuter case a little better. The new Seidio Innocase Active is also a very nice case; a close second to the Otter Box.
Definitely otter box. Slim sturdy and stylish

one problem though it has to slide into my jeans. Most of these cases have rubber and dont slide
Throwing in a vote for the Body Glove case.. great fit with just enough bulk to give you that warm protected feeling

You should check out Techie Warehouse. If you go to the Covers & Skins area for the Droid X you'll find over 300 covers to choose from.
Best one I got laying around was not a Seidio, Otterbox or Trident... it was the Dual Layer Vertex Covers just google "techie warehouse vertex cover for droid x"
I quote from our product description about this product "The Motorola Droid X gets ultimate protection. A Screen Protector and two virtual walls of defense. The inner silicone core absorbs shock from bumps and drops. A hard polycarbonate exterior shell prevents cuts, scrapes, dings, and damage for the Motorola Droid X."
Let me know what you think of it.
i bought one of the 3 dollar black silicone ones off amazon. works fine for me..

I have had the Otterbox, Seidio, Innocase, Verizon, Kragen, but I didnt really like any of them. Iphone cases are so much more refined compared to these.
The Otterbox Seidio, and Kragen cases are too bulky, the Innocase looks good but broke on me, and the Verizon Kickstand Case was too cheaply made.
There is a guy from another forum thats making a phone case. It looks great but its not for sale yet, I am personally looking forward to it because he claims its easy to open and has a bunch of other features. It looks absolutely beautiful, so lets hope he can pull this off.
Right now Im using a cheap Ebay Silicone case, its not great either but it was only $2 and thats value for money. I also got a Smartphone Coaster, its a cheap bit of tin but it does the job for now.

Phantomskinz does have skins for the droid X.. Check the site again!
+1 For the Body Glove
I really enjoy my Body Glove, Although I've managed to wear out the snap on the lower left side by removing the case over time to do a battery pull and it no longer holds securely.
I have a Green Trident Kraken on order, due to arrive today actually assuming UPS will brave the icy roads, Good reviews on protection but they all admit to the sacrifice of sleekness.
The pliable verizon silicone case is nice and it fits with extended battery-Motorola and cover. You can find them for $10 online or eBay.
Check ebay item #250759993717
I bought a Sedieo Innocase Surface back in December it cracked in half in January. They are really nice looking, but if you ever have to do a battery pull or if you want to use your car dock, forget about getting it out of the damn case. It fits way to tight. So I am back to the ole Silicone case, which works fine, but sucks if you put it in your pocket, cause it sticks to cloth / jean material.
I'm on my 2nd Body Glove case.
Likes: Belt clip, rubber texture, light weight
Dislikes: Rubber texture deteriorates, weak tabs will not survive impact.
It has kept my DX from scratches but the tabs that snap it together break too easily. First was replaced under warranty. I think I will kick out the $ for an Otter.

Those cases with tabs that snap together aren't meant to be taken apart, after 4 or 5 times they will break. I created a case that opens easily, has no tiny tabs to break and has a multitude of other features.
I've also taken great care to make sure that the case is placed further away from the screen and buttons making it easy to touch the screen and press the buttons on the bottom.
There's space for the OEM extended battery, an extra micro SD card, and even an ID or credit card.
The case also functions as a stand and car mount, my case allows you to watch movies, make movies, capture photos, and use your phones GPS in your car with ease. These features not only work with the Motorola Droid X but with other cases, other phones, and even some other electronic devices such as digital cameras.
The case isn't any more expensive then other high quality cases either. Its 20 bucks and made from the same high strength plastic as other high end cases, so basically if your in the market for a case and other accessories you can pay for just the case and get the rest for free essentially.
If you think this case must be huge and weigh a lot you'd be surprised, its really a simple concept, its almost like a normal cellphone case but we've changed a the design a bit to allow it to function as an adjustable stand.
I can't post links yet so you'll have to google "Jawcase" to find more info, pics, and videos.
I like the Jawcase concept. Alot. I pledged. And good luck with getting your project off the ground Heather. Hope it gets funded.
I've gone through 3 body gloves now with my 4th's clips are broken yet again....
I think its a bit ridiculous that I cant take my phone case off because the clips can't stand it.
I need to find a new case, and I'm thinking of just going with one of the hard-ish silicone cases. The body glove looks great when you buy it, but the rubber wears away like no tomorrow and the clips are destroyed after a couple battery pulls. I had one for my enV touch and it lasted the entire lifespan of the phone with minor tears and such. My droid x's can't last anymore than maybe a month. Don't get me wrong, the body gloves are wonderful, but I'm clearly not having a good experience with it or maybe I'm not handling it properly
+1 for the body glove case. I havent had any issues with the tabs, but i always open it at the bottom with a coin.

Shoot...I was pretty much sold on the Innocase Surface case, was gonna order one in the next few days. I've tried the cheap TPU case, the cheap 2-piece snap together case, maybe I'll try the Verizon silicon one instead of the Innocase.

[Review] Trident Kraken AMS on GSM Nexus

First of all, i would like to thank the people over at Trident (www.tridentcase.com) for sending this case out to me.
Packaging - The box is pretty simple. Shows the product and the different colors it comes in. Black, Red, Pink, Green, and Blue. i will be showing off the black model. Inside the box comes a screen protector kit, which includes the screen protector, microfiber cloth and a applicator/squeegee card. The case retails for $49.95.
Case - The Kraken AMS case is a heady duty 3-Layer case which features a shock absorbing silicone, a polycarbonate plastic shell, rubber dust covers over the microphone and speaker, rubber covers over ports (charger and headset), and holster. The silicone part, or Perseus can be used as a stand alone case on days that you don’t need maximum protection, but will still give u good drop and scratch protection. The two polycarbonate shells cover the silicone to make the case durable. The case has a nice lip around the screen for a lay on table design. One accessory that the case comes with is a really durable metal kickstand. They also have other Kraken accessories which make the case more usable in everyday life. such as an AMS Bike Clip, AMS Tripod Mount, AMS Headphone Organizer, AMS Seatbelt Clip, and AMS Windshield Mount.
Thoughts - My thought on the case are it is made of very high grade materials. everything fits. cutouts are precise. I’ve only had the case for a few hours and i love it. the silicone is way much better than the otterbox defender. it feels of quality and doesn't attract lint. the volume and power buttons feel better than the naked buttons to me. the kickstand is SOLID and does its job great. the holster is just as heavy duty as the case and rotates so you can wear it comfortably. i will update the in a few days to give more opinions...
Pics - I will have pics of the phone with the case tomorrow, as my nexus is my only camera at the moment.

Conclusion - I think the case is well worth the $50 you are paying. you are getting a heavy duty case that can be used as a lightweight case also that provides an ample amount of protection. I would definitely recommend this case to anyone who is looking for an overall great case that will add bulk to your device.
if u feel i left something out or want to ask a question. go ahead. thanks.
But will it blend? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAl28d6tbko&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Never seen the "Will It Blend?" videos?
http://www.youtube.com/user/Blendtec?feature=watch
Can't wait to see some pictures of the phone inside the case.
Some questions...
First, how do the two plastic pieces (the front and back) fit together?
On my otterbox defender, they just snap together with some tiny little clips and after about two drops 3 out of 4 clips are already broken so the only thing holding them together is the silicone cover that goes on the outside. I'm hoping the kraken is a lot more rugged in that aspect... The otterbox is great at protecting the phone but the case itself is already trashed after a few drops which isn't cool.
Second, how bulky is the kraken? It looks bulkier than the otterbox defender, especially on the sides since it looks like it has a ridge sticking out from either side of the screen. Does it feel good in the hand? My defender definitely makes the phone about 30% thicker which makes it less comfortable to hold but I've gotten used to it. Don't know how I'd feel about the ridges on the Kraken however.
Anyway thanks for the review.

hmmmm. might just scratch, but not blend.
the two plastic pieces fit together nice and tight. the top and bottom are snap together. but the sides are actually placed in slots, it can be slight difficult to remove if u don't have nails. but i see that as a good thing. the Kraken would take some time to show wear and tear.
it may b just a tad bit bulkier, but the grip is a for sure thing. the poly carbonate is not glossy but isn't matte. it's sort of in between but doesn't show finger prints. the sides have ridges for better grip as well. i actually thought the defender felt great in hand, maybe because i have small hands tho.
few more pics.

the case fits the GSM extended battery with no problems at all.
Does this case make it hard to press the volume and power buttons? And it seems to cover up the notification light at the bottom doesn't it?
the buttons are the best thing on the case IMO. and the notification light isnt covered.

HI, just wondering if you wound up getting the 2000mah battery afterall and if so, how well it fits.
if it fits 100 percent with extended battery im a get one to
i recently bought one it appears the notification light is 40% block.. i'm using the standard battery gsm version could that be the reason i wonder
I have the same case with the extended battery (Sprint) and everything fits perfectly. The notification light is about 50% blocked but I dont use it anyways so it did not bother me much. The notification bar is easy to pull down with no interference with the top of the case like with the otterbox. The case can take a beating I have drop tested survived a 12ft drop. Even though it adds bulk because it is hard polycarbonate on the outside it makes it really easy to get in and out of pockets even with tighter fitting jeans.
Also if you have a Costco or Sams Club near by you can pick up the case for $30 instead of $50.
Seidio convert is better.. options for all gnex models and batteries

I would recommend it if you are looking for a case that offers similar or even more protection than the Otterbox Defender. The case adds quite a bit of bulk to your phone though so that may turn off some people.
Throughout the work week, usually switch between the Kraken, Otterbox Commuter, and the SGP leather pouch. The Kraken will be used only if I have to go out to do field work.
The Commuter is only used if I feel like I don't want to use the SGP pouch. Otherwise I end up using the SGP pouch most of the time on the slower days of work where I'm just stuck in the office.
I'm leaning toward the Kraken because I've read a couple of story about how the Otterbox defender was scratching phones.
I have a commuter right now but I need something more rugged for work and also to protect my GNex from my crazy kids
saintpanache
If that's the case, the Kraken would be a good purchase for you. My Kraken case has held up well when I drop my phone when I'm out doing field work. Very durable and well worth it!

Best case?

So I was curious what evryone thinks is the best case I was going to order the trident agies case since its so hard to find a case and also the otterbox so any idea?
HTC Thunderbolt
I have about 12-15 cases for my TB...I have tried them all pretty much...I love the TPU cases...they are super cheap and are easy to take off and put on which is nice since I use a car dock a lot...if you aren't going to take your case off much the Otterbox is great, but it is pretty big...the Seidio Convert Combo is another good one, although I am not a huge fan of the slide on case as I think it tends to scratch phones. I am not a big fan of the Trident cases...I have one and I think they fit a little on the sloppy side, and they are a PITA to put on and take off
I bought a platinum series case that Best Buy released for the Thunderbolt, and I LOVE this thing! I've dropped my phone a few times, but never hurt anything.
I've also tried otterbox, but I must say that I enjoy this case more.
It's, in all, 3 protection layers... plus a clip that locks and unlocks.
Well worth the money to me.

Great case, however it does look old very quickly as the hard plastic gets scratched very easily and after a while the rubber material inside the case starts to become worn down and begins to sort of "shave off"...I have both the black and white Pop case. White begins to yellow fairly quickly too. Great cases, but I think there are better.
The Seidio case is great, its definitely one of my favorites...unfortunately I can't use it as I have ghost armor on my phone which adds the slightest amount of thickness to it so I an unable to slide the case on without ripping the ghost armor off...not an issue for most.
I like to keep my phones in brand new shape..from the day I buy them to the day I get rid of them (helps resale value!) and I will say the best way to protect your phone and keep it looking cool is to do Ghost Armor (carbon fiber wrap, matte wrap, or normal..they have many different styles) - they also have the best screen protector HANDS DOWN, and then top it off with a clear TPU case like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Rubber-Thunde...r=8-1&keywords=Clear+TPU+case+htc+thunderbolt
This way you can see the awesome carbon fiber wrap, and add the shock protection and prevent screen cracks, etc that the ghost armor can't do (since the ghost armor simply prevents scratches and scrapes, DOES NOT save your phone from drops etc..)
I hope this really helps you out, I have spent a lot of time in this area haha...you could say I am the phone case expert

This. And I too have bought and tried a slew of them.
Currently I own the otterbox, body glove, and shell/holster. If I had to pick one it would be the shell/holster just because you get some decent protection and a way to carry it on your belt. Also if you don't want to use a screen protector it is good because while in the holster it protects your screen.
The otterbox is a great case but keep in mind just like everyone else said the screen protector is a pain. It isn't designed quite like other otterboxes in that the top is uncovered so the screen protector will never fit fully flush with the screen.
Edit: regarding the screen protectors, they are all the same. I have tried them all from the top end to the cheapest. I found that the $1 3 pack work just as well as any (Steinheil, Zagg) so no sense in spending $20 when $1 does the same.
I love my Seidio Inocase Slider, I've got it paired with a Zagg Invisible Shield (Which I kind of hate, but if does do a fantastic job protecting the screen).

Which case for SG2 i9100 + protection

Hello, guys
I'm looking for a good case for my GS2 i9100...
It has to be: dual layer protection...
I found those two: Otterbox commuter series, and Mate-case tough.
Which one is the best? Or, are there other good cases on the market?
And if you got one, what are your experiences?
I have the Trident Aegis case and I really recommend it. I looked at the Otterbox Commuter but the back was slicker than what I wanted because I tend to have things fall out of my pockets and I didn't want my phone to be one of them. The Trident Aegis has a silicone underlayer that reveals itself at the bulked up corners and bevel, and has headphone and charging jack cover flaps to keep dust out. It's top layer is hard plastic but it has almost a soft, smooth texture to it that doesn't slide around as much. I've dropped this phone at least 10 times already and it's completely unscathed. Definitely check it out.

I have the Trident Aegis case and I really recommend it. I looked at the Otterbox Commuter but the back was slicker than what I wanted because I tend to have things fall out of my pockets and I didn't want my phone to be one of them. The Trident Aegis has a silicone underlayer that reveals itself at the bulked up corners and bevel, and has headphone and charging jack cover flaps to keep dust out.

I looked at it, it seems give good protection to your phone, fit nicely, but it looks a little too bulky for me..
In my opinion Trident has the most protective cases while otter box may be more practical if you don't need the extra level of safety

Thank you,
I was looking for a cover where my phone was protected, the cover had to be good protection, but also a little stylish, not to bulky.
I also think trident and ballistic has the best protection, but I dont like the look so much...
So I made my decision and ordered a mate-case tough...
But I also need a good screen protection (but not too expensive), because I put my phone always in my pocket, sometimes with keys...
I always had a flipcover, that gives also protection for my screen... But I bought also the Exomount 2: universal car mount, which is an awesome mount, I'm very happy with that...
However with a mount, you can't use a flipcover, because you have to flip the cover to the back... So It wont fit nicely... (I hope you understand what i'm trying to say).
So I had to make a decision... A flipcover so I would protect my screen of scratches of my keys (but difficult to use in the car mount) OR a dual layer protected cover without a flipcover + screen protector... (and easy to use in the car mount)
So I want to use the cover anytime and everywhere... (I'm not planning for changing covers for each event), so it had to be a little stylish and not too bulky...
I hope that I made the right decision...
