New style Matte/Glossy TPU Style cases available
http://www.evocases.net
i would jump if the clear wasn't frosted. i just picked up the glossy white evo, and would like to keep the glossy appearance. good prices though!
edit: retraction! the frost is fricking awesome! just got it today and its bad ass on the white evo!
I just ordered one. I'm going to try out the clear frost case. I was a little on the fence about it, but for $5, its worth checking out. Ill update as soon I get it.

Need more pics. Looks like it will be very difficult to hit the power button.

It does take effort to activate the power button. This has been my experience with other TPU cases as well until the case is "broken in", not that TPU is similar to leather, but leather also requires some "breaking in" to achieve full performance.

Best seen with the Frosted case. Note the clear edges.
Since a lot of you have asked, here is an XDA coupon code for $1 off.

Just don't use the quotes.
I ordered 2 black and two frosted yesterday can't wait to check em out.
Sent from my HTC EVO 4G using Tapatalk PRO.
the frosted one looks pretty nice. for the guys who already ordered, please share some pics and thoughts on it when you get it!
I'm unfamiliar with these TPU cases. Are these just applied to the back and the whold front screen surface is basically still unobstructed? Can't quite tell from the pic. If so, I think that's what I've been looking for.
Also, does anybody know if it will fit over a full body Zagg?
Easy to remove? Want to use one for a disc-type car mount too maybe.
I just got my black TPU case....it fits SNUG around the phone and has a nice overall feel in the hands. Also slips in and out of the pocket with little resistance. The camera is well protected for such a slim case build.
The power button is a bit tough to push as are the volume up and down buttons but I will give them some time to "break" in.
I would definitely recommend checking this case out for the $6 dollars paid.
you just cant beat that price... You should get these posted on ebay and amazon. With that price and us seller theirs no doubt it will be a hit.

Amazon opens up a whole can of worms with it's fees and such. I used to sell on Amazon for approx. 3yrs but will no longer. The above should take care of 99% of the fan base.
Thanks for the kind words.
I just ordered up a black one I've been pretty unsatisfied with the cases I've played with so far but this one looks pretty good, especially for $6 shipped.
ordered one, thanks for the discount code
Ordered one too... Discount code? How much did you pay overall? I Paid 7.25
Got order one when I get home
I bought one of these for my MyTouch3G last year, and thought it was the BEST case I've ever had for a phone. I'm desperately wanting one for my MT4G, but haven't found one anywhere online yet. Anyone know where we can get these? I bought mine on eBay for $4.99 and free shipping from Hong Kong, and I got it in less than 2 weeks.
Here's a link to a current eBay auction for the MT3G version so you can see what I'm talking about...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...0&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:US:1123#ht_5478wt_876
I agree, those are the best cases I've used. Had one for my original MyTouch and loved it. Hopefully they will get in gear and make them for the 4G now.
That's like the TPU cases others have mentioned, and been on the lookout for on eBay.
I like how they're flexible, but not plain silicon, and maintain the profile of the phone as much as possible.
I gotta pick up something pretty soon. I'd consider just a Phantom Skinz, but with a 3 year old who loves Angry Birds running around the house I need something that offers some drop protection.

i had been looking for these aswell. i bought one for my curve last yr from this guy. clicked this post in hopes to find that you had found them lol. i sent the seller an email asking about these for the 4g. ill check back in if/when he responds
How well does that case absorb a shock if the phone is dropped? I really like how its molded really well to the body-lines of the phone and doesnt look thick. Let us know asap when you do find out if they sell them yet! Thanks!

Dear cw54o,

weeks

That's awesome news about him getting these cases in the next 1-2 weeks. I'm on my second T-Mo case, and I really haven't been too thrilled with them. Way too much money IMO for cases like these, and I'm considering returning/exchanging my newest one (soft rubber sleeve with white plastic backing) because the rubber attracts WAY TOO much dust.
These cases are STILL not available anywhere yet. Total BS!

There's Epik cases on eBay for the HTC HD7, didn't that come out the same day or about the same timeframe as our MT4G? If so, why hasn't there been an Epik case made yet for our phone?
i have no clue, but on a side note tmble has these type of cases at their stores. im tempted to get 2 of them. they have a sale going on 2accessories will land u 20% off and 3 will get u 30% off, but their 20 a peice....
T-Mobile does not carry the Epik branded cases at their stores. They don't have any cases that even come close to the Epik brand.

they arent 'epik' cases BUT they are TPU cases, which is exactly what the epik cases are. they have them for several phones including the mytouch 4g. if i go back ill take a pic and show you. if it werent for the price difference i would have gotten it. but yeah im pretty sure a youtube search would confirm it.
DCMugen88 posted black and clear cases today. I got black
awww daewond3r beat me too it i was too busy trying to figure out if i wanted clear or smoke blk and put in my order to post the link lol but here u go to those who are looking for it

Thanks for the link. Ill be ordering a few. Great prices! i was close to ordering some case on amazon for 24.99 + shipping.
Sucks that these won't be arriving until after xmas though.
Nice! Do you think the epik cases will still fit if you have the CF Chromatics on? My little girl puts a beating on my phone while playing with talking Tom . Ordered anyway, you cant go wrong with the price! Thanks for the heads up fellas!

Are these the bendable gel cases they had for the MT3G? It doesn't really specify that anywhere on his auctions, and the pictures make it look more like a hard plastic or hard gel/plastic case.
I saw some decent kickstand cases for the SGS2 with AT&T, but I have not been able to find any yet with the TMO version. Please let me know if you find any out there specially made for the TMO SGS2!
I'm having major kickstand withdrawals since upgrading from my EVO 4G.
Oh and I'm looking for a landscape kickstand, not the portrait kickstand found on the Body Glove case in the TMO stores.
Same here, would love some kickstand

Thank you for the pictures. Can you post one of the front of the case? I want to see how much of the bezel it covers and if it gets close to the edges of the screen.
The only thing i dont like about it is that the top and bottom arent covered.
The inside has a felt material to protect the phone from the case.

I tried it on my phone and it felt incredibly cheap, tacky color/design, and lack of real protection. If it fits your needs then awesome. For me I am kinda rough on things and like protection all around. I can appreciate the usefulness of a kickstand.
I also would like a little more protection. It seems like most of the kickstand cases are hard plastic, but I at least want a gel/silicone insert something like the otterbox commuter often has.
Hopefully they start actually releasing some good cases for this phone soon.

Oh, the black and white ones don't look too bad at all. Price is a little high, but this is very close to what I'm looking for. I really like the grippy edges. I'm hoping that a case will make my power and volume buttons a bit harder to push on accident (which I am constantly doing).
I like the case mate one also and I found it on sale:

That is a good deal alright, but that case isn't for the T-Mobile version. Those are still listed as 'coming soon' on the Case Mate site.
lol...that i didn't know..guess can't get it for cheap yet.
Casemate is still taking forever to get their T-Mobile cases out, even after some rumors that they were coming a couple weeks ago. http://www.case-mate.com/pulse/samsung-carriers.asp . Looks like if it does come out, they will be asking $35.00 (same as Sprint and International price).
Trident said they were going to do their Kraken kickstand case for the TMO SGS2, but then when it came time to ship cases, they ended up only shipping the Aegis case (no kickstand) (http://www.tridenteer.com/categories/Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-(T%2dMobile)/ - $29.95).
But it does look like Seidio has finally shipped a kickstand case, http://www.seidioonline.com/t-mobile-samsung-galaxy-s-II-active-case-black-p/csk3ssg2tk-bk.htm . There is a review for the case here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1336684 . Priced at $34.95. There is a 15% off promo code for this case, "Winter11".

I've placed my order for the Sapphire and Amethyst ACTIVE cases from Seidio. There is one review in the linked thread with pictures and then only one other user who made some general comments.
There are no reviews yet on Amazon, but the cases are listed there for the same price (no promo code). Amazon has the black in stock and the others shipping in 2-3 weeks.
I have the Seidio Active, switching from Ballistic. There is a big difference in feeling, mostly due to the Ballistic being so big and harder to press the buttons. I needed something with a belt clip, and I've gone with the Active series for my last 2 phones (HTC Sensation, LG G2x). It's a great combo all in all.

Imperial Hard Case Super Slim Black
Looks like a decent enough case, protects the back mainly, and looks very thin

STK Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 TPU Case / Black
Not sure about this one, resembles the Neo Hybrid in a way, just doesn't have sperate layers.
http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/4-/23551468/-/Product.html
Think im gunna take a gamble on the Italk one. Thin around the back, has holes in all the correct places. Looks like ir protects the phone when its turned over.
For £4.96 you can't go wrong really!
It's hard to tell from the photos whether it really does protect the front of the phone (when you place it face down). I'd be interested in what you find!
Yeah, i know what you mean. To be fair. I nver plce my phone screen way down anyway!
Came this morning, Looks promising.
Will upload pics etc in few hours
First impressions are its very nice and slim!
Cant hardly tell its there!
Pros
Slim
Feels nice
Doesn't look cheap
Gives sight screen potection (I mean slight, 1mm tops)
Cons
Doesn't give much protection to Camera
Buttons on side could irritate some people.
To be fair, i wanted a slim case, which this is. I dont intend to launch my phone around, i always place it down back first.
Ill try and add some pics of the phone in the case soon.
Shots of the phone in the case.
I apologise in advance, The worst digital camera i've ever seen used in my life!
Gives you a rough idea, if your sat here now thinking, should I, Shouldn't I buy one. Go ahead and do it! You won't be dissapointed for £4.95
Also available on eBay for about £3
Feels rather weird having this case on, been use to thickness and the lip over on the Neo Hybrid!
How's the grip with this case?
Yeah, its alright, feels nice in the hand.
Honestly its a really nice case for £4.95, or £3 on ebay.
You wont be dissapointed!
Do you have the link to the ebay one?

I'm looking for a bumper case to show off my skin as well, but I haven't had much luck in finding one. I'm going to keep looking around online, but if anyone knows where to get a bumper case like this, please share!
Settled on this one because no major manufacturers have put one out for the device yet.

Upstate: Received on Sunday from Amazon. I'm happy with this case. It does what I wanted, which was protect the front and rear glass areas from contacting surfaces when I put the device down. The raised rubberized black lines keep the phone up away from the clear cover. The holes in the clear cover for USB, mic, stereo jack (bottom), and whatever the tiny hole next to the camera is on the back all line up perfectly. I like the bumpers on the corners too. Hopefully I won't have reason to test them, but they look capable. :good:
Okay so now I'm pissed because my fave case manufacturer UAG came out with a new model for my phone just days after I settled on something less.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B06X...G5PLS-O-BK&dpPl=1&dpID=51wzgi0Kk2L&ref=plSrch
Yeah not a bumper case but since I replied to this thread I figured it was the best place to whine about it.

I also picked up this case. It is quite good, nice and slim with solid side grips. Having a clear back allows my Skinnova skin to show through which is cool. It fits tightly around the phone and feels quite sturdy. I'd definitely recommend this if you're looking for something close to a bumper case. I think this might be as close as we're going to get for this device.
i didnt receive my g5+ yet but i found this and i think it looks awesome.

Will do! I just ordered it yesterday, the total came out to around $20 USD. It looks like they 3D print the cases individually, so it won't be shipping out until Aug 31st.
I just got the bumper case from Shapeways today. First impressions - it's just ok, nothing spectacular. It feels like a $5 -10 bumper case, not a $20 one. The fit is a bit loose and not as sung as I would like. The grip is really solid though, and I like the texture. Overall I would say this bumper case isn't worth the money. But if you REALLY want a slim case, I would say go for it. I'm not sure if we'll ever get a different bumper case for this phone, so this might be your only option (at least right now).
