SOLD! I may pick up a few, depending on the selection. Just don't make us wait too long...;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Gordon Ramsay:
I e-mailed them as well and was told they hope to have it available a couple days before release of the phone.

Edit: Nevermind, I see onestepahead was here ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cordy:
I usually just use the HTC belt holster with my phone and will most likely pick one up for the new Evo. I did come across this case by Amzer. They aren't out yet and will come in multiple colors but it intrigues me if it fits the way that picture shows. I will most likely wait for it to come out to actually get a better look at how it fits and looks. Especially since Amzer's other cases for the phone amazingly don't have cutouts for the kickstand. If it fits like the pic shows and has a cutout for the kickstand I may have to pick that white one up to compliment the holster.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] boliviano3:
I have this case on my E4GT http://www.amazon.com/S-Line-Shell-Samsung-Galaxy-Sprint/dp/B005U30660

Hopefully they make one like this for the EVO 4G LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SmokenAce:
Good cases

I will order an Otter box great quality and protection,used one on my BB.The seidio holster I don't like because the clip that holds the phone in breaks.The other co I have never heard of but as a temp case until the good ones are in stock maybe a good bet.Otter says in stock soon or 2-5 weeks we will see.:cool:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] midmadn:
Anyone used the Ballistic Cases?

http://www.goballisticcase.com/coll...evo-4g-lte-ballistic-shell-gel-sg-series-case
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilentSummer:
Think I will have to give the TPU cases a try. Would only use it in certain conditions as I don't care for cases that much.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] riceatusc:
I have their hard core case on my evo 3d. I wish they were making the HC case for the LTE, but they told me they were only going to do a SG case. To me, Ballistic > Otterbox
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vanessaem:
Last thing on TPU cases, they're amazing. I've dropped my 3vo on concrete. Not only was the device unharmed, the case itself didn't scuff or scratch. If it did, I may need a magnifying glass to see it. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sgt. slaughter:
not a scratch?!!! :eek:

Now thats something incredible! I've usually ran with the Sedio Active case or the Case-Mate tough series. loved them both but think the kickstand will be blocked on them both given the placement this time which kinda rules them out for me now...least the sedio has it blocked, no clue what case-mate has up their sleeve...

will deff have to get one of these TPU cases to see what the craze is all about!!:D

looking forward to it too!!!:D:D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
No joke Sgt! Wife's phone looks brand new (after a year) and that thing has been dropped plenty of times. I just bought her a Galaxy Tab2 7in (Mothers Day) and hope I can find a good tpu case for it. TPU-cases.com didn't have them :( but I am sure other mfgs make them.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Alex@XDA:
Like this combo but would the kickstand work on the other side (as the kickstand does on device)? If not, you would not be able to charge while using it..

Other than that, I am sold!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shdwboy:
Id love to see a weatherproof case like the lifeproof cases for the iphone. my friend has one and you can put it in the sink and use it. and its a sleek looking case.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vanessaem:
Yeah, I couldn't believe it either. The case cost me less than $3.00. High quality for less. You can't get that anymore...lol.

Check http://www.handhelditems.com/. That's where I got my case from.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kisakuku:
Trident Aegis, Cyclops and Kraken AMS for EvoLTE should come out June 22nd, another quality option besides Otterbox/Ballistic.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Well, in light of all the hoopla around the delay, you'll most likely beat the phone to market so definitely keep us posted!

*You ever think about doing cases for other LARGER devices? Really love my TPU's and want to cover the wifes Galaxy Tab2 7in with one. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dixonwa:
I am looking into buying the Seidio Surface case but I am waiting on some sort of review. From what I can tell the EVO 4G LTE is the first Seidio Surface case to have the power and volume buttons covered (as far as I can find from going through the devices on their site). I like the idea of having the buttons covered and flush with the case as long as they work well.

http://www.seidioonline.com/htc-evo-4g-lte-surface-case-black-p/csr3htjet-bk.htm
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cordy:
As a slight update, it seems Amzer has finally updated the case I was looking at on their official website to give you a better look. It does have all the cutouts as I hoped but it doesn't cover the whole earpiece as it originally showed. So to me it's the same as any other Silicone case, just with more colors to choose from. If anyone is intersted they are already shipping the black one from their site and expect to ship the rest by next week. http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Silicone-Skin-Jelly-Case-Black-P93691.htm
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilentSummer:
How does the silicon case compare to TPU cases?

The silicon case appears to be a lot thinner then TPU cases.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thesabri:
I've tried both types of cases and have found silicon cases to be thinner, attracts dust, lint, and did not feel ad if it would protect a device in a fall
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
Was dead-set on getting an Otterbox, but I'm glad I read this thread XD

I'll be trying out a TPU case and save some moolas. :P
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Curb71:
I love the TPU cases. I've had one on my last 2 evos

I emailed them a few days ago and got this response.

Hi Steve,

I was hoping to have them ready before launch but it looks like the very earliest I'll have them ready is next Monday, but it could be as late as Wednesday. We rushed our Evo 3D release and ended up having to make new revisions, we are trying to prevent that from happening this time. It's always a balance between releasing quickly and releasing a quality product. I'm on the Evo pre-order list myself so our Evo cases are a top priority! Thanks for your continued support!

I just bought this one, just for fun: http://www.ebay.com/itm/CLEAR-HARD-...&otn=4&po=LVI&ps=63&clkid=8483608477877978126

I also ordered the Ventec case/holster. I may not end up not keeping either of them, but at least I'll have a temporary case until I find something I love.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] arozer:
Just bought this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=251057385395

I like minimal stuff. =]

I can't find the Incredible look-a-like anywhere so I'll settle for this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] daleybox:
I was hoping to find something like this case. I loved it on my 3D, minimal but protective.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamerican413:
I can see why. That is a GREAT looking case!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tiato:
I had 3 Amzer silicon cases for the OG 4Gs. At first they all fit snugly to the phones but soon after, within a few weeks, the silicon started to stretch causing the cases to slip off too easily. I wouldn't go back to those silicon cases again. I'd probably give the TPU ones a try.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilentSummer:
Yea, was leaning more towards the TPU cases as well.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
TPU really is great stuff and the tpu-cases.com product is top notch.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamerican413:
Same thing happened to me. Amzer's customer service didn't want to talk about it. I would not use their cases again. The good thing is, the fact that their case failed is what led me to try a TPU case. Haven't looked back. :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] purock:
I actually bought one of these a few days as a temporary case. It just arrived. Its not bad for $6. Not exactly as strong as you would like (which should lead to weak sides allowing for dust,etc). But it'll do nice for the time being.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Papichulo06:
Yea, just don't make them so expensive and you'll get my business. $4.99 and EVERYONE would buy.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tobiasunruh:
Does any one have any feed back on this brand of cases? Just found it and it looks pretty sweet.

http://www.qmadix.com/snap-on/holster-shell-combo-htc-evo-4g-lte.asp from my PG86100 using xda premium
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] durandetto:
That looks pretty sweet just wondering what the inside is, if It's plastic most likely it will scratch the plastic cover on the phone. If It's felt lined or rubberized I might just get one of these. I like the seidio active but am not to sure about the crappy kickstand. I would get the OB commuter if it had a holster. I hope someone makes a case with the kickstand accessible, a belt holster and a two piece design like the active and commuter.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Well you see.... Everyone would buy one at 8.99 (arbitrary number, I don't know how much they'll be) because it's just that awesome AND supported by a great company.

The last thing you want is some cheap POS cover on your $600 that doesn't protect and fit properly for many many moons.

<<I too, am a victim of Apple patent #5,946,647>>
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Skullmonkey:
I am a firefighter and a few people have the LifeProof cases. We have taken a 1" 3/4 hose and just completely drenched one of the cases (with the phone in it) and it came out without a drop of water in it. If they made one for the LTE (which i doubt they will stray from crApple products), I would not mind paying extra for the protection since all my phones tend to get a ton of abuse.

That one looks sexy. I like the slide cases over the clip ons. The last 3 clip on ones I got for my OG Evo and Moment, the spring broke after about 5-6 months.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cubbieswin:
What is the screen protector like that comes with the TPU case? Does it have an adhesive back or static cling design?

I have a Clarivue screen protector on my EVO that I like. I love the static cling design. It's great for putting it on without bubbles or dust.

It would be nice if I could get something that helps with fingerprints and glare that doesn't degrade the image on the screen.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
I have never used a screen protector and don't plan on ever using one. My right pocket is a phone pocket, ONLY. :D

<<I too, am a victim of Apple patent #5,946,647>>
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sgt. slaughter:
All of the anti fingerprint screen protectors will effect the image quality to a degree. Some can deal with it some can't. There are pics around that show the differences btw
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xTmDarren:
doesn't Diztronic throw screen protectors in with there TPU cases? If so I may wait for them to release.. They seem to have the best reviews of most TPU cases...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Gordon Ramsay:
I think sometimes on their amazon store they throw in screen protectors, either way, Diztronic is the best TPU you can buy.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
I'm thinking of getting the Matte Black from Diztronic. I hope they make a white one, I would use that every day! :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shinedown87:
I have the matte black from Diztronic on my E4GT, and while it looks great, it is much more slippery than the glossy cases. I prefer the feel of the glossy case because it is easier to hold onto.

Just something that should be considered.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
Thanks for the heads-up! I'll get a matte black and a glossy black then :p

well hopefully tomorrow we can get a look at the Diztronic brand.. I may be purchasing one or two myself.. Now I just need to look at some screen protector..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JManekia:
TPU cases vs Seidio cases

What are the experiences between Seidio case and TPU case? Are these similar to silicon cases? I've had bad experience with silicon case as they seem to attract alot of dust and lint.

Thanks for the feedback
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Gordon Ramsay:
TPU is totally different than silicon, they don't attract dirt and lint nearly as bad, if at all. I have the matte black on my Epic 4g touch and i never have to worry about dust.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
I don't know anything about the Sedio case but, TPU IS NOT TO BE COMPARED to silicone cases. Silicone cases are f#$%in junk.

Buy a TPU when Ditztronic's drops his and if you don't like it, I'll buy it from you. :D

I swear by these things, you won't be disappointed in any way, shape, form or fashion. They really are that good.

They look good, and to me, are the perfect balance between protection and device access WITHOUT the.....

1. Crazy bulk of Otterbox

2. Dust and fuzz attraction and losing shape of silicone

3. Cheap look (and damaging effects) of those snap on plastic POS cases

4. Unprotected nature of the Barely There (though I do use my barely there for occasions that call for it, I just feel naked) Case mate.

Just sayin..... :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Ryno_666:
They are jerks here you go.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Gordon Ramsay:
Why are we jerks?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JManekia:
Thanks for your input. I'll probably go with TPU gloss black or matte black finish case.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Skullmonkey:
It took me like 10 seconds to realize but I think he is calling BB jerks. As in 'They're jerks. Here you go.' At least I hope that is what he means lol.

Perimeter Case?

Anybody know of any cases that are basically just perimeter cases? All I want is something that lifts the glass off the table slightly if I put the phone face down and something that keeps the sides from getting scuffed. Maybe slight bumpers on the corners for minor drops but nothing more. I don't want a back on the case. Anybody see anything like that?

-ajs
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Case-Mate barely there case is what you want http://www.case-mate.com/HTC-Evo-4G-LTE-Cases/Case-Mate-HTC-Evo-4G-LTE-Barely-There-Cases.asp

I have used with my last two Evo's and they are great. I use these when I'm traveling on business and want as slim as possible while still having protection. I use the TPU-cases.com cases most times but switch to the barely there when needed.

<<I too, am a victim of Apple patent #5,946,647>>

Anyone know of any cases that have a sliding holster that comes with it? I saw the one a few pages back but that is a clip on case which I am really trying to avoid. I need something that can take a beating in my job lol.

Sent from my Transformer Prime!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cordy:
Thanks for that link. I was actually looking at some of those hard snap-on cases on Amazon but it's good to see where they actually got them from. I want to get one with a design but I've never had luck with snap on cases. They've usually either cracked or scratched the phone. I may go with the clear tpu case and an htc holster if I can find one for the phone.

---------- Post added at 10:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 PM ----------

I think there is the seido convert and active both have holster variations to them. Also one of the otterbox models does as well.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilverZero:
+1 on the TPU case. I got one for $3 back when I got the E4G two years ago, and it has been awesome all along. I almost spent a lot more on one of those argyle Amzer cases, but I'm glad I kept it simple. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] grrmisfit:
i know someone from tpu posts here was curious if they are waiting on an evo to make sure the cases fit before selling or if there was any idea on when they would be available?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Alex@XDA:
Was wondering if the Seido surface case is made of the same quality as the TPU cases everyone is raving about? The reason I just don't get it directly from TPU Cases is that I like the combo at Seido which has the belt clip.... Unless the tpu case will fit on the belt clip.

Any thoughts/suggestions?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JManekia:
Where is diztronic TPU case for EVO LTE? I know it is on sale on amazon but I'd like to see some pictures before buying one.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] couragedragon:
The Seido Surface isn't a TPU case. It's a hard "shell" case, which allows you to clip it to the holster.

The Seido Convert cases combine the Surface with two additional layers of protection (a silicone wrap, which is further encased by a hard case).

I haven't seen any holsters that accommodate TPU cases (unless you're open to one of those "pouch" type cases).

I never thought I would put so much into researching a frigging case for my phone!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ghostyroasty:
Currently debating on waiting for a Ballistic case or, going with a Seidio Active case. Had a Ballistic case for my OG Evo, although it was a little hefty, I was confident that nothing would happen to it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yayyay:
I like holsters myself and the protection of a tpu case. What I did with my evo 3d was use a seidio surface holster and a tpu case. It worked perfectly. I purchased them separately and by luck found out that it worked. The fit was just like the hard plastic case was being used.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jonstrong:
I've been using the Incipio case that VzW sells for the i515. OK, but leaning toward Seidio Convert Combo for phone using 2100 mah OEM battery. If I get this I might order a separate holster for the times I'm just using the surface case.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kisakuku:
Ballistic is only making an SG case for EVO LTE; no HC this time. Trident is coming out with the full line (Aegis, Cyclops, Kraken AMS), so you might want to consider those too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yayyay:
I purchased the convert combo for my 3d and it came with two holsters. It came with one to use only for the surface case

And a big fat chunkier one to use with the add ons to make it into convert case. Essentially it is a surfase plastic inner shell wrapped with a rubbery material clipped together by a hard outer "x" shaped plastic. I never used the convert portion of the seidio. I never had a need for that much protection. I dont know if they still include both holsters but just wanted to give you a heads up.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jonstrong:
Thanks...how do/did you like the surface case?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yayyay:
Great protection from scratches as the kit includes a screen protector. I wouldn't trust it in a drop however. That's why I decided to use the tpu with the holster.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xTmDarren:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
I jut ordered the otterbox:)

Here
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] couragedragon:
I'm a little unclear, can you clarify?

Did the surface hard shell fit over your TPU case and then that still fit in the surface holster?

or

Did you leave the surface hard shell off and then put the TPU case in the holster? And that stayed in securely?

The Convert Combo Value Pack comes with both holsters.

The Convert Combo only comes with the convert holster. The Surface holster is available for $29.99 separately as well if someone wanted to get just the Combo first. I also found some Surface holsters on amazon for about $15 bucks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilentSummer:

May end up ordering one of the tpu cases from ditztronic.

Since people warned me against those silicone cases from Amzer and in case anyone is looking for a different color option, Amzer has a white tpu case available from their site. http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Soft-Gel-TPU-Gloss-Skin-Case-White-P94058.htm
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] donatom3:
I picked up this white one from Amzer http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Soft-Gel-TPU-Gloss-Skin-Case-White-P94058.htm.

I got it on ebay cheaper though http://www.ebay.com/itm/11088417887...NX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_983wt_1139.

I've had good cases in the past from Amzer.

Edit just saw the post above me and the negative comments in this thread. I've never used Amzer's silicone cases only their TPU cases.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cordy:
If you have the chance I'd greatly appreciate some pics of the case preferably off and on the phone when you get it. I hate all the renders on the webisites for these cases. And I'm leaning towards their white tpu case since everyone recommends tpu. Still hoping to find an HTC holster.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] durandetto:
Just ordered the ventev combo for $14 with free shipping from Amazon. I've had the seidio active on my 3D and love it but for 1/3 the price I'll take the risk.
