I just wanted to say thanks to Onestepahead for his awesome cases! I got the smoke matte and the geo clear tpu cases and must say I like these cases alot. I have never had a case on any of my phones, but after dropping my 3d and cracking its screen i made sure to get a case for my replacement. I will make sure to leave you some amazon reviews for sure! You said you needed some reviews on one particular case, which one is it? I will leave feedback for that one also! Again thanks so much for the input and criticism that you listen to, you truly have a phenomenal product.

Sent from my 3vo on the interwebz.

I was also looking for a really thin case... let us know how they are.
[HTC EVO 3D] bigjoe7757:
any word on weather these cases will be made for the evo 3d with the seidio extended battery, I diff would buy a few.
[HTC EVO 3D] bso44:
He'll have to confirm but OneStepAhead told me that they're possibly coming out with a case for the extended batteries.
[HTC EVO 3D] lyric911:
Well, I got my S style case from the eBay seller. I vastly prefer the layout of this case (covered power button, uncovered camera button) but vastly prefer the style options (the argyle especially) of the tpu-cases case. Give me a crossover!
[HTC EVO 3D] Impulses:
Anyone get one of the S type cases in smoke yet? I haven't seen a picture of it actually on a phone, but the ebay pics make it look slightly lighter or clearer than other glossy/smoke models. I've already ordered a smoke Geo from TPU-Cases (love the design, nice change of pace from the argyle that so many are sporting now), I'll probably get an S/wave model in either blue or smoke to have an additional look and get a feel for the different button cutout arrangement. Imo, covered power buttons are never an issue if the case has a small raised nub on the inside where the button lies.
[HTC EVO 3D] OutdoorOBW:
I just ordered one last night and it shipped today. Unless someone posts pictures before I get mine ill post some up. I've heard a few people say they like the cut out for the camera button and the power button being covered.
[HTC EVO 3D] iliapiano:
is this a TPU case, looks very similar http://www.amazon.com/HTC-EVO-3D-GEL-CASE/dp/tech-data/B004V2KN7I/ref=de_a_smtd
[HTC EVO 3D] aznmode:
It does look like it.
[HTC EVO 3D] funkyboy1281:
Just received the s style from ebay and I think they looks awesome. I like how the camera holes are pretty much perfect vs my argyle smoke case that I bought off tpu-cases.com however it doesn't bother me. Yes I got 5 of them but for $10.99 for 5 cases and 3 screen protectors I couldn't pass it up.
[HTC EVO 3D] x4sper:
very nice pictures i ordered the same set and also the smoked one... cant wait to see some pics of the smoked one on a 3vo
[HTC EVO 3D] funkyboy1281:
They're nice and I will say I like the screen protector and I personally hate them because I've never been great at putting them on. I have 3 tiny ass bubbles at the bottom of the phone that I don't notice that much. Now that I have 6 cases for the phone I doubt I'll be getting more. They also fit great in the iGrip car dock if anyone has one.

P.S. I won't be using the purple and pink cases
[HTC EVO 3D] iliapiano:
What do you guys think about this one it's cheaper then the over tpu on amazon http://www.amazon.com/Black-Candy-R...LO/ref=sr_1_18?ie=UTF8&qid=1311628186&sr=8-18
[HTC EVO 3D] shook187:
I brought one and was very disappointed. The top and bottom of the phone are exposed. The screen has no protection if you lay it flat a table top and the plastic itself is not rubberized.
[HTC EVO 3D] iliapiano:
What case are you using now.
[HTC EVO 3D] shook187:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350475742418

It kicks ass. And it looks better in person then the picture.
[HTC EVO 3D] aznmode:
Do you have actual pictures. That looks really thin in the eBay images.
[HTC EVO 3D] aznmode:
So I got the luxmo case from overstock today and it feels about the same thickness as my ebay TPU case. I don't have my ebay one so I can't really compare 100% and basing it on feel and flex. What I do like is the cutout for the camera lens has a lip that sticks out about 1mm to protect the lens when the phone is on its back. The camera button and 2d 3d cutout is also a plus. The power button is covered so it is easier to turn on but you cant really feel the button being pressed. Just like how the volume button feels like with other TPU cases. Overall this is my TPU case of choice since I like the lens not complete covered (see my previous post about halo effect in pictures with covered lens) and because the power button is not covered making it easier to press. The lip for the rear lens is also a plus.
[HTC EVO 3D] aznmode:
I bought mine from overstock.com. I don't think these are the ones you're selling. Edited my other post. Sorry for the confusion.

EDIT: wait you sell the luxmo for overstock.com? Your site is cheaper. Overstock charged me $6 something.

Hey man, your XDA coupon for 15% as advertised in your signature is "Error: Coupon is either invalid, expired or reached its usage limit!" when trying to apply it to my order.
[HTC EVO 3D] psone:
Has anyone tried this case? The price is right, but I'm unsure of how it fits around the screen, if it covers camera holes, etc.?

[HTC EVO 3D] everthus:
Happy with 2 cases

I got the smoke argyle case from ebay, happy with it.

Then I got this case and I love it even more http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...53680&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_1322wt_1396

Looks like there are a bunch of sellers selling them cheap on ebay. It's thin and stylish and really blends into the phone - hard to tell there is even a case on it.
[HTC EVO 3D] everthus:
Hey psone, pretty sure that's the same one I got (but I paid less than that). Yeah, works great, covers everything well.
[HTC EVO 3D] inco9nito99:
Same thing my friend...doesn't work.
[HTC EVO 3D] psone:
Great, thanks for the recommendation. $1.99 is a great price. Will give it a try!
[HTC EVO 3D] 0mie:
Hmm, I tried it a few times in different browsers and it worked. PM me if you want to still place an order and I will invoice you
[HTC EVO 3D] beyond882001:
You can buy 5 cases with three screen protecters for 9.99. Search eBay for them. It said three weeks shipping but got it in 6 days. Comes with black,white,blue,pink,purple...well worth it

[HTC EVO 3D] Impulses:
I'm waiting for my S-curve smoked case from Ebay, I'm hoping the covered power button is easier to press but I know that at 'least the uncovered camera button will definitely easier to press. Right now I'm using a smoke Geo case from TPU-Cases...

Pros:

I love the Geo design, very different than everything else out there but also very sleek and clean.

FAST shipping, I ordered it a day after I ordered my phone from Wirefly and it arrived a day before the phone did, pretty good for $8 including free shipping.

Cons:

I really don't like the covered camera button, it takes a lot away from that great two-stage camera button imo.

Likewise, I don't like the uncovered power button... I think the opening is too small, it forces you to angle and insert your finger into it rather than just place it flat over the area, this is easier to get used to than the camera button though.

Overall fit is fine, a ittle tighter than other TPU cases I've seen (it pries the battery door off when you take it off, it's that tight)... BUT there's a corner that's somewhat loose, almost like it stretched out or something, dunno if it's just mine in particular or if it happened somehow while I put it on. The aligment thing for teh camera lens is not very noticeable at all imo, and was corrected in latter batches IIRC.
[HTC EVO 3D] camdz:
Any word on this? Ive been periodically checking your site. Cant believe no one has made a low profile non folio style case for this tablet!
[HTC EVO 3D] saltorio:
Just thought I'd comment here: I picked up my EVO 3D from Rogers yesterday, and they had a TPU Lazer case available in-store in both black and purple, for $20 CDN.

I picked up the black version and it fits the phone quite tightly, provides easy access to all the buttons and ports, and has an angles grip pattern on the back that provides some texture and style. Overall, I'm quite pleased with it.

The Rogers site doesn't have a very good pick, but searching for "TPU Lazer EVO 3D" turned up a number of sites selling it.
[HTC EVO 3D] aznmode:
Do you have actual pictures. I never trust those online images.
[HTC EVO 3D] saltorio:
I'll see what I can do about taking some pics for you. But that's exactly how it looks from the back, just blacker.
[HTC EVO 3D] jbermi:
just got this one from HTCpedia.com

I got the smoke colored one.

I like it a lot, never been a fan of slick TPU cases, but this one has a matte feel on the back, it fits like a glove, isn't too hard to get on and off. the buttons aren't too hard to push...it's just about the perfect case for my 3D. it's a keeper for me. its the 5th case I have tried on my 3D since I got it. I got the color click case from there, too...its a casemate barely there knockoff and works very well, too.
[HTC EVO 3D] mexiking713:
Just got my black S case today. Looks awesome :D waiting for my smoke S case from China. Love these S cases.

Sent from my HTC Evo in 3D
[HTC EVO 3D] graffixnyc:
I just got the S line in the clear blue and have a black one on the way. It looks sick.I never was a fan of colored cases(always black and I ordered a black one just in case I hated the blue one haha) but I have to admit the blue one looks really nice on the phone. I had the same case on my myTouch 4G. I think when I got rid of that phone I missed the case more than the phone. haha

It doesnt add much bulk, fits well, protects well, the power button is easier to press than the original one I had for the MT4G which is good. I really love the texture grips on the side as well

I had gotten another type of s line case for my g2x and it wasnt the same and was a much more cheaply made one. This one however is the same as the first s line I got and I love it. Here it is on amazon from a us seller but you can buy it on ebay for much cheaper

Has anyone has a chance to try out THIS CASE. I'm looking for a kickstand case, and I was wondering if this one was any good, and if the kickstand works in portrait.
[HTC EVO 3D] bso44:
That looks interesting. I've been begging for a TPU case w/kickstand. If you get it, please post a review.

It's a little cheaper here without the screen protectors. Free shipping too.

[HTC EVO 3D] Impulses:
Those true hybrid kickstand cases look interesting... I say true hybrid because we've gotten in the habit of caling those S-wave matte/glossy TPU cases "hybrids" when they really aren't (blame the sellers who started calling them that). Looks like those linked above have a solid plastic back with the kickstand and a TPU frame, like other true hybrid TPU cases. Anyone get one yet to share some impressions?
[HTC EVO 3D] MsRandall:
I have the same 2 cases and I prefer the s line case too. I will be selling all the cases I have collected that I dont use.

Can't wait till I get my smoke s case :D

Sent from my HTC Evo in 3D
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I think we talked about this before, but just in case I'll post here too. I personally don't use the tip of my finger to press the button, I use the flat part of my finger and for me it presses very easily, much easier then any other TPU case I've used except probably the S style you posted about. I think the reason that one is so easy to press is the TPU is very thin on that case, or thinner then ours anyways. My mother uses one of our cases too and she has long finger nails and has no problem pressing the button either, but she probably would if she used the tip of her finger. Try using the flat/middle part of your finger and see how that works for you.

I just had a new style TPU case made, this time it's for the women. I'd like to send some review samples out to the first few

women

that PM me. It's going to be translucent blue with glitter infused into the TPU. If your interested send me a PM, should have them in stock either Tuesday or Wednesday.
[HTC EVO 3D] Impulses:
I think you had a similar discussion with someone else, I remember reading it... I can press the power button with your case as you're suggesting but I end up pressing the edges of the opening and making it bulge out slightly as well, I'm sure it would never stretch out but it just didn't feel right to me, which is why I started using the tip of my finger. Do note that I'm doing this with my finger perpendicular to the shape of the button (parallel to the longest side of the phone), I guess if I was somehow coming in from the side it might also be easier, definitely not a natural motion for me tho.

Like I said, the S-line wasn't perfect in this regard either, slightly better IMO tho. I almost want to send you some of the old EVO 4G TPU cases I have that got this part just perfect by having a raised nub on the INSIDE of the case where the button is. That little detail made it super easy to press, I don't know if you've seen what I'm referring to... If you have an EVO 4G to test with, lemme know and I can send you one of these, I doubt I'd get anything by selling a used one.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
That s+case is hot stuff, I'm gonna get me one of those.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Actually, if you could send me that would be awesome. Someone else told me about this as well and suggested I buy an Epik TPU case as they use these nubs. Well, I ordered an Epik Nexus S case and it was probably the worse case I've ever seen. Plus, it didnt have the nubs. So maybe Epik changed their design at some point, I dont know. I'd love to see an example though, or if you can direct me to where I can purchase one that would work too. The only concern about the nub is the power button pressing TOO easily. Even with no nub I've had some customers complain before on our Infuse case that the volume buttons would press themselves. A nub on such a rigid material could have this problem... I think a better solution is probably to just increase the power button cutout size so everyone is happy.

I'm not sure what you mean about it bulging out when you press it exactly. I can press it fine with the flat part of my finger from all 360 degrees although I usually press it at about 45 degrees. The fat of my finger just goes into the hole and presses the button just as easily as if no case is on it at all. Maybe I just have fat fingers :D I always thought of my fingers as being pretty skinny though... The S style case on the other hand, that molded power button is amazing. They lucked out, as the design the used isn't always easy to press on some phones, but it works super well on the Evo 3D. You didn't like the S style power button either?
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Got my TPU case yesterday and I am very happy with it. Fits perfect and I have no problem hitting the power button with the main part of my finger.

I think when you look at it that it might appear that you need to squeeze you finger in the open whole but all you really need to do is hit it with your whole finger.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Exactly :)

Here are some shots of our new GlitterFlex case. These turned out really great! If any females want a review sample shoot me a PM.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
If there's a purple glitter one for the optimus s, ill grab one for my daughter, also a yellow glitter for the evo 4g for my gf, I'd snag that one too.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
At this point I'm not going to have any made for older phones. As of now I'm doing glitter cases for the all the Galaxy SII variants and the HTC Kingdom. I guess XDA isnt the best place to offer free review cases to females :D I think we are mostly men around here..
[HTC EVO 3D] Impulses:
I wouldn't say I dislike it, but I thought the power button on my older EVO 4G cases was better. Like I said, I didn't hate the opening on yours either, I was getting used to it... But if I had to compare I'd give the nod to the S style, and to my older cases over that one even.

I've got four EVO 4G cases and they all have the same nub, two are argyle smoke from Amzer (ended up with two because the first one appeared lost, ordered from Amazon), and the other two are smoke/red from DCMugen88 on Ebay (who who usually sells Epik cases I believe). I'll probably try to sell the last two for a couple of bucks, since I haven't used them, but you're welcome to the argyle ones if you wanna inspect them. One of them always had a weirder shade of brown or amber, but they seem identical otherwise.

The nub thing is impressive tho, never felt too easy to press, but easier then anything else I've seen. Looking at it again just now I've noticed it's not just a nub but an indentation larger than the button itself, outwards away from the button, then the nub in the middle of that. It's almost like they made the TPU thinner over the button so it's easier to press, and ALSO added the nub so you're still making good contact with the button.

I can try taking some macro pictures of it but I dunno how easy it'll be to distinguish. Drop me an address in PM if you want and I'll send them your way when I go to the PO to send out some other stuff I'm selling, got a spare EVO 4G battery + charger I should sell too.

Just dropped my phone (i know big SMH) an the outlining metal around the screen is a bit messed up on bottom right corner I was wondering if I get the smoke s case will it cover it?

Go your your local mall they usually have those phone accessories kiosks and stores if you want a TPU case today, granted you'll probably be charged $20 for it.
[HTC EVO 3D] djdisturbed:
just got my argyle one from tpucases.com, looks really nice on the phone, now just need to find a belt holster/case to use with it. Would like to find a nice leather side case for it, but I'm trying to stay away from one that has magnet closures in it, my old one like that i think fried my sd card a couple of times among other issues
[HTC EVO 3D] kawaski47:
Just got my pack of 5 S cases. So far I love them!

BTW, has anyone tried the screen protectors that come with them? I botched the first one and after looking up proper techniques I got it right on the second try. I usually use wet application skins so this is my first dry app skin.

I have to say that I am really impressed with the quality. Zero orange peel you usually see from wet skins and its nice and smooth. The hardest part is getting the screen on without lint or dirt. But if you follow the tips found around XDA it really does look nice. I'll see how the edges hold up with the S case on it but so far so good!
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I do not, although obviously I think the matte back case looks great :) The front of the phone is glossy so it looks cleaner with the edges being glossy too. Best of both worlds really...
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
These will work: http://www.hedocell.com/Motorola-Dr...ellet-Bergamo-Leather-Case-2-Clips-Black.html

Make sure you get the one thats for the Droid X as it's the largest one they make. It's what I use with my TPU case and it works great. By the way, tpucases.com is actually a different (european i believe) site. I tried to get them to sell me the domain but never got a response.
[HTC EVO 3D] djdisturbed:
I noticed an issue with the case so far, the usb connector hole it not center on the usb connector, and the (long) usb cable i use to charge the phone at night on my bed stand does not fit b/c of this. the top part of the hole is too low and does not allot the cable to fully go into into the connector, but it would if it was centered.

also, that case looks good but i'm really looking for a side case (one that fits long way along the belt, not hang down)
[HTC EVO 3D] empiire:
Just ordered my high gloss smoke case and I'm looking forwards to its arrival, but I missed the information on when it is supposed to ship/arrive! Anyone care to advise me?
[HTC EVO 3D] jorts:
hold out for an all black matte if you can. the gloss black on the tpu-cases one is a finger print magnet, dust and lint magnet, and is ugly to boot

[HTC EVO 3D] retnuh730:
Yeah I guess its up to the person who gets the phone whether to remove it or not.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vesnik:
This is easy to answer, as others have said best Tpu-Cases is http://tpu-cases.com/ easily.

Not only is the product quality, but he is a member here on the forum and he takes feedback from other users. You don't see that often.

Also not only that, but you see poorer quality cases being sold for over $20+ easily. He's still tweaking out the problems with the cases but it's been on the market for over a month before the Evo 3D was release so I guess that's to be expected. Once he gets the new molds out I think it will be perfect, you really can't complain for the price.
[HTC EVO 3D] chaoticallysweet:
Not to spit in your eye after you ordered, but you should have bought this from the companies website. has free shipping with the cases about $0.05 more.

Thanks for the heads up but I have Amazon Prime. Amazon Prime=Free two day shipping.
[HTC EVO 3D] Razgriz:
Just to be on the safe side, I picked up one of the TPU cases from Best Buy yesterday when I got my phone. So far, I like it a lot better than the silicone case I have on my Evo 4G. The things that kinda suck are the price ($20.99) and that it will take off the battery cover if you take the case off.
[HTC EVO 3D] mrjkwik:
I have the same case and agree completely. I would say the bottom camera hole is slightly off, hardley noticible but i got ocd about things like that, but the top one is more off. again, neither affects the cameras function.

but i think the case looks perfect on the phone. when i'm sick of gray, i'll be ordering another color/design. i'm interested in what other designs/colors onestepahead comes out with.

and to onestepahead, awesome product.

We probably could of made the hole bigger but honestly I can press it easily even with my thumb. You really dont need to get your finger in the opening even, just in the general vicinity seems to be enough.
