Read before buying Tmobiles Gel Case.

So I did a little research last night on the Gel Case Tmoblie is selling for the price of $18 around here in NYC. While they were all out of black (at least the ones I checked) I hit the good ol' Internets and found something surprising.
Amazon carries the same exact case for $10 in a plethora of colors that Tmobile does not offer.
The companies name is "Amzer". A person posted pictures of the case on amazon and it indeed confirmed it for me. It has the same look and feel (yah I know I did not touch it but it looked like it did.) as the Tmobile branded version.
I saw in the T-Mobile gel skin (Black) thread Aeson asked about the manufacturer. So here is your answer.
Indeed these are Amzer rebranded cases for $10 a pop at amazon.
LINKS BELOW!!!!!!!
Amazon
Amzer
Enjoy!
DISCLAIMER: My research can be wrong. Amzer might have a slightly different case then Tmobile. Just a heads up before you buy and end up getting the wrong case and try blaming it on me.

so..
Usually ships within 1 to 3 months with free shipping or
8/3 + $4.99 shipping or
Now with instant gratification for $16.99?
I already have mine. This is what happens when you have no protection

But this is a good bit of information no less. I don't think it'll stop people from buying it in the store.

these aren't available yet (till the 3rd)..these have been discussed in other threads as well.. but some prefer being able to pick one up in store after trying it out
speaking of Amzer.. is it just me or does this NOT have a cutout for the speaker?!? lol

Yea I saw that but I thought I would provide the info just in case (no pun intended) wanted different colors because I saw a lot of people asking for different colors like white. I myself would love a white one. Also They have been pretty difficult to find over here especially the black one but I do understand where you are coming from. I will buy a black on from tmobile and a white one from Amazon.

Yah I don't know if those are final or pre production images but if not than that case is a total fail! It's very ugly too I hate how it covers the ear piece part.
but these are the cases you are looking for

I just ordered it yesterday. Since t-mo stores are all out of stock. Hopefully they ship soon or before 8/3 or else would suck.

I bought a black gel skin from T-Mobile and it's actually really nice. A LOT better than the blue gel skin I got for my myTouch 3G at launch. I got the last one at a T-Mobile store 20 minutes away from me (my local one ran out) and I was at another store yesterday and it looked like they just got a new shipment of them cause they had about 5 blacks and one light blue, which was kind of nice, but I preferred the black, so it looks like they're getting more colors in eventually.

Can anyone confirm that Amazon is actually shipping these, in spite of the "Usually ships within 1 to 3 months" statement? I'd really prefer to order a few things from Amazon together w/ free shipping instead of different vendors.

Between my wife and I we just ordered 4 different cases from Amzer. Originally saw them on Amazon but was turned off by the 1-3 month comment. Amzer says that they will be shipping on the 3rd and the price was the same so I just went with them.

How can you say this? They clearly are NOT the same case.... I love the one I picked up from T Mobile~

Nearly all of T-Mobile's accessories are re-branded versions of some 3rd-party accessory. T-Mobile just sells them for a lot more money.

True, but these are, in fact, different. Close, probably, but not the same.
I may still grab a white one, for when I'm just feeling something different than black.

I just noticed that amzer and amazon have both changed their pictures of these cases. The pictures that were posted when I ordered the cases last weekend looked identical to the tmobile case. The pictures that are posted now do not. This should be interesting to see what actually shows up on my doorstep.

Yea I noticed that as well so I added a disclaimer to the OP. So no one goes raging at me threatening to kill me lol.

I highly recommend NOT getting the Amzer case. I as well was duped. I ordered the white one last week got it in yesterday and I do not like it at all. The volume buttons seem slightly easier to push but the power button is not. It is very loose on the phone, like ridiculously loose. T-Mobile one is alot better.

I got the gray Amzer case today and I am satisfied with it. I mean for $10 its a good temporary case. It's not THAT loose. It does the job. For me the power/volume buttons are just as easy to press even though they are covered. Everyone's entitled to their own opinions though.
Took 3-4 business days to get here on super saver shipping.

anybody tried one of these cheapies yet?

Looks like I will be waiting for mine for awhile. I ordered a couple of the solid color jelly cases, which are in stock, but I also ordered a couple of the Luxe Argyle skin cases. Those aren't supposed to ship until the 17th. Oh well, I guess I didn't realize they would hold the entire shipment until they could fill everything.
My wife bought a tmobile case in the meantime, so at least I can do a good side by side comparison when the amzer cases come in.

yeah i ordered the one from amzer... talked to a buddy at a tmobile and he was "welll you can get it and just return it if you get the case with in 30 days" went home and saw amzer updated pictures.. cancled the order and just took the dive.. the case from tmobile is perfect i dont mind dropping 20 bucks to keep my expensive phone safe

Hadn't seen this posted yet anywhere...
T-Mobile is finally showing these cases as available for order on their website. Black, teal and a different chrome/black case that looks pretty nice. Still waiting for my Amzer black...sorta wish I'd waited now. I really like the look of these.

Otterbox Defender Pre-Order $26.99 with FSSS

NOT SUCH A HOT DEAL. When you consider all the complaints on the kickstand breaking and the flimsy soft plastic that often tears at the port covers. BUYER BEWARE!!!
The following quote is from the Facebook Otterbox page. This comment was made on 11-17-2010 at 10:30 AM

When do you think 3rd parties like Amazon, Best Buy and Sprint will carry the Defender for EVO?

OtterBox Amazon and other online retailers should have them within a week or so. Best Buy will be carrying online initially at BestBuy.com.

YMMV - Available on Otterbox website, Amazon has not changed their page, but the price has changed to $33.94 This item is full price on Otterbox at $49.95 with a $5 coupon code for those of you that had signed up for notification on availability.
YMMV - Pre-Order the Otterbox Defender for $26.99 shipped.
It has been "Coming Soon" for months now, so Pre-Order at your own risk.
Free shipping with FSSS or Prime.
This price is current as of 10:30 PM EST 11/7/2010. Amazon prices change rapidly.

NOTE: IT LISTS SHIPPING TIME AS 1-2 MONTHS!!! But it may take longer or shorter. Rumors say it will ship this month.
NOTE: Under Product Description it lists the name as Impact: "Product Description
The OtterBox Impact Series is a durable silicone skin...]"
...however, on the invoice it only lists DEFENDER and makes no mention on Impact Series. Due to this discrepancy, I am adding YMMV to this deal. However, this does not really concern me as the title says Defender and the Impact has no current wait, therefore, there is more than enough reason to believe it is the Defender. I have never had issues with Amazon with similar description issues in the past.
From the Otterbox Facebook page, Otterbox reminds us that all coupon codes are case sensitive.
Jay E Hey guys, I just got my Evo defender for 40$ with free shipping! Use these 2 codes tb1010y (10% off/free shipping) & MEMUEVO5 (5$ off) (coupon is case sensitive) . They both stack. Enjoy 15$ off!
SilverStone641 said:
That is not entirely true. you get 10% off which EQUALS free shipping. NOT 10% PLUS free shipping. the total savings is $10. still a great deal though

If you order through Otterbox, you may have to call in, their servers have been crashing.

If you need a case soon or now you may be better off going with the Trident Cyclops or Seidio Rugged. However, I do not suggest the Seidio Rugged as I have 2 and they're both falling apart. The upgraded/seperate screen protector is necessary on the Cyclops. The Ballistic cases may be released this month as well.

Defender on sale at Amazon confirmed as of 11/7/10 11 pm
Confirming OP. Defender on sale through Amazon direct. Must be coming out soon!

Edit: then again..maybe not..says ships in 1 to 2 months. Does anyone know if Amazon charges when you order or when your item ships? I know for unreleased video games, your card is charged when the item ships but I don't know about non game items.

I see $49.95
nevermind. Previous link was to a different seller at $49.95. Amazon is selling for $29.95
Note that it says Usually Ships in 1 or 2 MONTHS

Thanks for posting the link! I can't believe I forgot that.
For everyone who doesn't frequent Amazon...on the right side there is an area that says "More Buying Choices", this box may have Amazon.com as a seller or it may be the default seller, I'm not sure how they program their code to decide which you see as default.
1-2 months is possible. Rumors say this month, but rumors have been saying that for months!!!
I'm in for 2 because my Seidio Rugged's are falling apart, but they'll hold up until the Otterbox Defender is released.......................................................................unless the Trident Kraken beats them to the market

That's weird. From my point of view, the link I gave does go to the 26.99 version. I'll just chalk it up to some crazy property about Amazon's site. As long as you found it. Actually..I believe Amazon moved it to a different page just that quick.
Here's a screenie of what I initially saw before Amazon changed it:

Just ordered mine, $26.99. Thanks for the heads up OP

Just ordered one also! Crossing my fingers that it comes out in a reasonable time. On facebook otterbox did say that it is in the manufacturing process a few days ago.

Ordered mine as well OP. $26.99 with free super saver shipping. awesome! great find.

From a discussion page on Facebook:
Random Person: NOV 17 DEFENDER CASE FOR EVO SHIPS!!!!!!!!
OtterBox: Fingers crossed, cause it isn't too much longer now. The date didn't come from us, but we are working hard to get them out asap!​

Awesome!!
I already have a Commuter case, good for interim was waiting on this one!!
Just scored it for 28.61 with tax, shipped!
Even if it takes a few weeks more than Otterbox I can deal with wait for the price.
Thanks OP!

the only thing i didnt like about the rugged was the opening for the usb port. i did cut it and it works well.. of course it doesnt look like it came that way since i did cut it and its not smooth but it works well..
i have the rugged away but im using the active now... out of all thats out there now with a holster, i think sedio is the best ( IMO)
like i said, i would like to see the otter box before i get it. i just wish it had a clip on the top like the sedio holster has. just feels more secure

I accidentally ripped off that usb port, my wife also accidentally ripped the headset jack area off. That plastic on the Seidio Rugged is just way too thin.
I snapped the top of my holster off, the design didn't work for me...but take that with a grain of salt, cause if it's breakable, I'll break it.

I still haven t been charged yet and I think it's been 48 hours, so I'm guessing they don't charge until it ships. I went ahead and got the 30 day Prime trial so I'm getting mine overnighted for $30 shipped, not too bad!

Ordered off Amazon. For the price you can't beat it. Hopefully it comes sooner than later.

$33.94 now. Listed as in stock on Otterbox.com.

Noreve tradition case up on their site - due 30th April

Noreve make some of the nicest cases I know (for phones) so quite excited to see them release this one.
It is basically like the Moto Portfolio case as far as I can tell and they are saying it will be in stock on 30th April which is a nice and firm date, whether they hit or not is another matter.
Its a little pricey and I can't decide if the PDair series might be nicer for a similar sort of cost.
Anyway just thought I would share the knowledge as I am still tooing and froing between case choices.

Thank you for this! I cant tell if this case has the appropriate charging cutouts. Also looks expensive, any idea if they ship outside the U.S.?

It certainly appears to since it is really only held at the corners. I am not sure it is worth it but from my experience of their phone cases I can vouch for their quality. They ship worldwide or at least many places, definitely uk and Europe and Australia

you live and learn ... at any rate you live

that looks exactly like the new official moto portfolio case

Has anyone bought one of these yet? I can't find any videos of one on YouTube. I can't decide between PDAirs white ugly(ish) stitching or Noreves corner-holding case. The Noreve case looks far prettier to my eye, but I don't think I like the plastic that shows when the case is being used to prop up the Zoom, that and currently it's ~£75.
Decisions, decisions. I am off to NYC at the end of the month and I want a nice case for viewing the Xoom on the plane. If anyone knows of another professional, smart looking case I'd love to hear of it.
*Edit* Okay, I just spent £98 on the Noreve with fast shipping. Probably about £35 overpriced if you include shipping but meh.

same gripe for me as the moto case; why couldnt they just cut a hole for the charger!

Very interested in your experience with it so please keep us posted.

Ten days later, still no case, 3-5 days delivery is what I was quoted when I paid $32.50 for express delivery... Money well spent.

As a follow up, I have e-mailed them today and got a response, after waiting ten days I have to wait another ten days before I will receive it! I paid over $30 for delivery and it will take three weeks to come! What an absolute JOKE, so now I have a $160 case I can't take to New York with me, the whole reason I bought it. And I'm not buying another cheaper one, ~$200 on cases is rediculous. I am so pissed off with them, I don't recommend them at all as far as getting your product in a reasonable timeframe goes.

it has already been 3 weeks since i placed my order, and it still hasnt shipped. after looking at all the other available xoom cases, this is the only one i want... so i wait. i will post photos, and my impressions when it arrives.

Just an update for those of you that might be interested in the Noreve xoom case. They are apparently having production issues right now, with a lot of new cases coming out all at once.
I'll just add to Kalavere's warning that the Noreve case cannot be recommended at this point.

Aye, apparently they messed up the production of the Xoom cases. I got an e-mail from them to say something of the like which is why I now have to wait 3+ weeks to receive mine. I'd steer well clear at least until I get mine which will be sometime before the 6th of June I am told, not that I'm even in the country to receive it, *grumble, grumble...*

@Kalavere
Surely at this point unless you still really want it you could ask for a refund although they do make nice cases they are expensive IMO and in the past I've tended to use PDair whose quality I have always found to be excellent. So far I just have the Motorola gel protector and am not sure what else I'm going to get yet but am considering an easel type stand and a neoprane case as have seen some nice ones on E-Bay and it works out at under £20 for both.
Marc

Well I came back from the States yesterday after a week or so away and I still hadn't received it, 28 days later...
I e-mailed them yesterday and demanded a refund, as they will only refund after a 30 day period has passed and you haven't received the product. I got a response this afternoon with a refund. They also had the cheek to respond to my English e-mails in FRENCH. I won't buy another product of theirs again, ~£100 for a case direct from the manufacturer is overpriced, and they are rude and incompetent.
I was forced to buy the official Moto Xoom case from Carphone Warehouse before leaving for the US, and I think I'll be sticking with this one, cheap and it works. I don't use a case at home so it's only for transporting it.
Bottom line, if you really have to buy this case, avoid buying it directly from Noreve like the plague.

I've had the noreve case for a couple weeks, and although it is very well built, it has a very negative impact on the xoom's wifi radio. It cuts my signal in half and web pages take forever to load... or don't load at all. As soon as I take the case off everything goes back to normal. Its weird. Xoom wifi.

Post cases that are SHIPPING NOW

So there are a few threads here about different cases "in stock", but nothing is actually "in stock" and ready to be shipped.
If you find a case SPECIFIC to the 2nd gen Nexus 7 that we can buy now and have it ship within a day please post it below. Prime eligible would be best!
Please refrain from generic 7" travel or sleeve type cases as I'm sure anyone looking for one of these can go anywhere and buy one now.

I'm with you. I'm surprised there aren't the usual $5 TPU cases on eBay even that I always find when a new device comes out. I always tend to use something like that for the 1st few weeks/months until better options come out. But I cannot find anything worth buying that available locally or online and actually in stock and shipping now.
The ONLY option I've found is the official Asus travel case which everyone seems to say isn't worth the money at all. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1389517282&pf_rd_i=507846

My girlfriend is going to France for three weeks on the 4th and is going to take the Nexus with here, there's no way I'm letting her take it without a case and screen protector. So, I ordered the SUPCASE Folio case yesterday, I didn't notice that it says "Usually ships within 4 to 5 days." Expected ship date isn't until Monday, the day after she leaves and I can't easily cancel the order, so I sent them an email saying that unless they can ship it ASAP, I want the order canceled. I already have a Poetic case ($3.95, free shipping) ordered that's not shipping until the 9th, I wouldn't have ordered a second case unless I needed it sooner, so I put in an order for the i-Blason case. None of the cases are Prime eligible, so hopefully I can get that shipped before Saturday... and hopefully I don't end up with three cases.

I think it's going to be hard to find any good cases shipping now. I'm guessing these third party manufacturers did not get any early access to the device, so they're designing and mass manufacturing the cases as we speak. If anything I'd be weary of buying any case that actually is shipping now as it's probably a rush job and won't fit the device perfect. Just my 2 cents.

Ah, thought I might of missed something that was shipping.
No worries.
If anyone else is interested, I just ordered this for under $6 shipped with Amazon Prime to hold me over for awhile until other options surface.

Not perfect but I mostly want something to protect my Nexus 7 while in transport in my laptop bag to and from work.

Try FiveBelow, Big Lots, & Dollartree
If anyone wants a little protection before their real cases get shipped... try FiveBelow, Big Lots, & Dollartree.
I first got me a 7" tablet sleeve from Dollartree but went into 5Below yesterdya and I got a generic 7" folio that fits the new nexus pretty good for $5.
I also saw some cheap tablet sleeves/cases at BigLots.
It will do the trick until my Moko and TPU hardshell case get here.

On the Moto site they have a deal that you get a free Air Jacket Grip case and Brilliant screen protector. thats a savings of $49.90..... I got my moto x on the 29th and e-mailed them this morning, they gave me a coupon code for the accessories! so id say go jump on the deal and save yourself some money and grab a great case!

in need a code as well if someone is so kind to share.

not really sure how it happened, but i ended up with the $50 off a purchase $50 or more and a free accessory of $50 or less... so i got a Air Jacket grip, Brilliant shatter proof screen protector and a Power Pak 3000 for $9.50... and a free skip if anyone wants it (Red or blue)

Just talked to Motorola support, this offer is only for new orders

they hooked me up
I just ordered my phone a couple days ago. I chatted with customer service and she hooked me up. Thanks OP for putting this out there for us!

I'd take that skip if you dont want it. If its still available I will take the red one.

Damn. I ordered mine and my wife's in March. Guess I don't get the cool stuff. When we ordered our phones there were no offers for extras.

To be honest, doesn't hurt to ask. They gave me way more than I was expecting

I ordered my new one on March 31st and they still didn't give me anything, it's worth a shot though

Just got a free Air Jacket Grip calling Moto CS.
Ordered phone on the 1st during the Mothers Day sale, they havnt shipped yet so called to get an estimated date of delivery and kindly asked if i can get the promo as well.
Guy on the phone was nice enough to give me the case but a no go on the screen protector. Still...free case, woo!
Just gotta call and ask.
