I saw the otterbox defender for the Evo 3D listed today on ebay, and Amazon. Of course I ordered one immediately. I went with ebay for the free shipping.
---------------
Well the otterbox has arrived! here are some pics of the one I received.Make sure and check out the hands on review I uploaded in HD! The case is not that bulky at all. It seems slimmer than the one for the Evo 4G. To bad I dont have that one anymore to compare it to.
The case has a cool tab that will lock the belt clip open to turn it into a kickstand when you dock the phone with the screen facing out. [see pics]
Only the camera lenses have plastic covering them (and the screen itself of course), the speaker and LED flash holes are open. The LED hole does have a foam gasket that will form a tight seal to the phone. This I hope will reduce light bleed while using the flash which would wash out the photo.

The otterbox website has not added the evo 3d line yet. I would think they will be available at launch on the 24th.
Hopefully its not like the evo was with them. It took them forever to.get cases out for the evo when it came out.

That's strange because I emailed them a few days ago and they responded back that they had no information on whether a case would be made for that phone. At least I won't have to wait as long as I did with the original EVO. Hopefully the Commuter isn't far behind.

yeah i ordered one too. The seller has tons of positive feedback, thats the only reason I purchased. I already have tracking. Its coming from indiana.
ps, it looks like the inventory he had is gone, and or otterbox ordered a cease and desist. anyway as long as it fits the evo 3d ill rock my fodderbox.
Okay now im leaning twards fake, The top picture I linked from the sellers page appears to be the otterbox defender for the HTC inspire. I noticed the time and date were the same.
crossing fingers it fits the phone. If not its going back. seller says they take returns as long as the packaging is there. Its easy to file a "item not as described" or "counterfit item" claim on ebay.

Lol that was pretty obvious since the 3d doesn't look like that, easiest way to tell is the 4 buttons. Htc changed them on the 3d. Also it's proven that it's fake if you look at the picture I posted at the top of this page.
I would never thrust anything like that, especially when its not even on the official otterbox site yet. Also it says if fits all those other phones. Yea right.

Im not debating its a knock off. BUT What I am wondering is will it actually fit the evo 3d. Ill just look at it when it gets here (monday?) and make my decition. Since it looks like I have 7 days to return it and the evo 3d may not be out yet , when the case gets here ill post some pics here Ill them make my decision on keeping it or not. most likely its going straight back.
anyway.. Ill update when it get here.

Oh....That i don't know, from the picture that's posted it seems like it would fit
Ok, I bought one. We'll see if it even shows up. I'm still on the fence for if it is real or not. The picture of the backside is interesting. If you look on the left side closely, there is a little bit of text. It's "2D 3D" etched into the case. So, if this is a fake, there is quite a bit of detail in it.

man those ballistic cases look solid. I went with the fishbone case for my last phone, but might be time for a change.
I really like the look of these, I went naked with my Hero but I'm definately getting a case for my evo 3d and this looks like the one for me. I also love how there is a built in kickstand on the original Evo, but how would you rate the kickstand. The htc kickstand case looks nice and solid but I can't tell with the ballistic kickstand.

The ballistic kickstand on my EVO isn't rock solid, but it gets the job done. Certainly much better than no kickstand.
Anyone wanting a ballistic case, I suggest emailing them. The more emails they get the more they'll know people are interesting in them making one.

Awesome. I've had my Hero in otterbox, but after seeing the videos on ballistic's site I'm very interested. Thanks for sharing.
Am I the only one that's hearing that the official release date is this Saturday June 4?
I'm hearing the 28th.
http://www.goodandevo.net/2011/05/sprint-holding-mandatory-htc-evo-3d-training-on-june-18th.html
Let me also say this...
I bought one of the ballistic cases for my evo, love it. Best case I ever had hands down.
After about 6 months part of the front of the case cracked. I was pissed as I paid like $35 bucks for it. I emailed their customer service. The lady said send a receipt and a picture of the problem. So I emailed my receipt and jpg of the cracked case. They mailed me a new one for free no other questions in 4 days. Their customer service is really good in my experience.
Since then I've had no problems and Ive had the new case about 4 months now. They give you a full year replacement warranty. (and it actually works as advertised!!)
Thanks for that. I had a similar problem with my Ottebox for my Hero. I emailed customer service, they requested no proof of anything and sent me a brand-new replacement free of charge. I guess they both would be excellent cases, but it seems that Ballistic has a planned release.
I emailed them also...lets email the crap out of them lol

Id be beyond surprised to see a July launch, unless by July they mean the 30th. Trident, Otterbox and Ballistic usually take several months for non Apple releases. Ill never understand why considering the form factor is known several months before release. Maybe they are trying to avoid the fiasco that happened with the Bionic and want to be sure the form factor doesn't change.

It is 29.95 but I wish it covered more of the camera. Plus its a hard shell case. Wish it was like the otterbox commuter with a soft silicone/tpu core and a hard poly shell. for that price it should be better.

Love that! This is "kind of" like the snap on case that I have had on my Evo 4G since day one. Can't see the front of it but I call the snap on case a "Bikini" case because it covers "just enough" to keep the phone safe and secure. My Evo looks as good as it did on day one (with the exception of the crack in the bezel near the unsupported power button) and it's not bulky at all.
Thanks for sharing the pic! I'll definitely have one of these on day one.
*I hope the hinge construction holds up..... I think the only thing I will miss is the kickstand but owell.
Off topic but I got an email from Sprint this morning and they changed the front facing camera to a diamond shape. Looks kind cool I guess. Just saying (;

That's a big a$$kick stand! I just hope none of these "HTC" letters fall off so easily like on the EVOs. I've lost track of how many times I've had to go back to Sprint and ask them to give me a new battery cover since my letters fell off.

Me, my girlfriend, and my dad have all gone back to Sprint at least twice to get new battery covers because all three letters fell off. And now I got to go back for a third time for another one before I sell my EVO :/ thank god they give them to us for free
HTC EVO = my best friend
Does anyone know if this is being released on 24th as well? I looked for it in google but couldn't find anything
Never had to replace any letters because my Evo lived in a Case Mate barely there, LOVE THAT CASE. This HTC case looks to be built just like it only with the kickstand so this will be perfect.
AS for if they are going to be available, I was told at the Shack that they would have cases the following week, I'm checking with a family member to see if Sprint stores will actually have them or not on Friday. I hope so....
The best feature about the og evo kickstand is the 'snappyness'. I can snap the thing open and closed in a nervous fidget like clicking a pen...totally annoying all around.
But does the kickstand in this case have a snap spring closing? It looks like it will be more flimsy with a small latch to hold it or something.

Lol i do the same.thing when I'm.using my phone..it drives my wife crazy ..click click ..but it is pretty sturdy and i definitely use it a lot..its a must have for a phone this size..def not a gimmick like some said in the past
It makes perfect sense to have the charging port up when on the kickstand. But some apps will not work this way I think. It'll be upside down. Take netflix app for example. It only plays the other way around. Tried it with my evo 4g.
What is HTC gonna do about this I wonder?
Looks like Otterbox has already completed a case that has been reviewed by another XDA member. That's good news, but I like options.
For those of us that want other options, I suggest we email in and ask for support!
I loved my Ballistic Hard Core case for my Evo 4G more than any other case. An optional outer layer that provided hard core durability and I could peel off that outer layer and have a slimmer phone with just the inside layer. Here's their email: [email protected]
I also loved my Kraken and Cyclops cases from Trident. The Kraken was splash proof, never know when waters around, it's a great case. Here's their email: [email protected]
Feel free to post the emails from your favorite accessory companies.
Ok I have 2 from Ballistic.
This one is back before the Evo 3d's release date was announced

This one I got yesterday after trying to find out if there was any more new info.
Sorry if the pics are too big, I don't see the option to attach files
That's awesome! Thanks for posting that!
If everyone get's on them, they may pump them out faster or increase volume. I don't want a shortage. The Ballistic is the roughest, toughest case that I've found. And I personally think it looks sexy when you take the optional outer layer off.
That's why i'm choosing Ballistic too. I like the looks and it adds lots of protection. I never used a case on my Hero, but I'm not going to risk it with the Evo 3D
I emailed Incipio and they're working on an Evo 3D case as well.

Yeah, I went without insurance on my Evo, saved myself $84 dollars over the life of the phone. So I will be doing the same thing with the 3D, with the Ballistic I'm not worried at all. The water damage thing make me want to consider the Trident Kraken though. Either way, if the phone get's damaged I'll just get a cheap Evo 4G off ebay.

sure i dropped $10 on a crappy rubberized case to hold me off till these so called larger comps come out with something but its so funny to see the little non name man produce a case or cables or a dock be4 a big name bangs it out!

I appreciate your support of the Evo. I plan on ordering a couple of your cases off eBay. They aren't as beefy as I like(i.e. Ballistic Hard Core), but I have heard great reports and I believe it will hold me over quite nicely.

What was worse with the original Evo is when they used a different factory and different material for the Evo. The iPhone case was so much superior. It was sad. That's why I went with Trident and Ballistic for the Evo.

I have a feeling the dedicated shutter and 2d-3d buttons could be getting in their way.
They wouldn't risk loosing customers with extended dates...so it must be that they are legitimately having design issues.

Not good. My first choice is the Ballistic HC. But it looks like I may have to go with someone else.
If they get more interest, they may put more bodies, time or resources on this project.
I dont understand what there problem is. Dose any phone create as much buzz before its released as the evo and unfortunately iphone? I mean for the past few weeks the evo3d is all ive been hearing about and thats without a single commercial. I just emailed them again. Ballistic needs to get on the ball. Im not a big fan of otterbox but i give em credit atleast there on the ball

She said "well we actually have them here now" i got excited and asked if I could purchase one. she said to hang on a minute and she would get me one. well that minute went by and she said actually on second thought I better just have you wait incase the case's sku isn't loaded into our computers yet....bummer. anyway since I know stores have them in stock i was wondering if anyone has gotten their hands on one. how was the quality? finish? fitment? etc.
Do you know what they look like?

I'm hoping Sprint has them available on the 24th. I'd like to pick one up along with my phone.

Thanks. I like that. I'll be getting one as soon as they're available.
I ordered a rubber from Amazon for less than $5, hopefully it'll get here before Friday. Depending on the price I might pick one of these up too. I frequently use the kickstand while watching video.
Have you guys seen the official dock for this thing? Flippin sweet, $50 bucks though...ouch.

I ordered that one. Note it's nowhere near as black as it is in the picture. It seems fine, I like TPU cases, and this one protects the camera completely.
I got this mainly to have something to keep it in until I get a nice case, but my Evo did great in my last cheapy TPU case. I may have to get the HTC case for the kickstand though.

did you not read my post? this case has already arrived at best buy stores...why wouldn't it be available at launch?
I am not a big fan of cases on my phones really. But I wonder if someone will make a new battery cover with a kickstand built in too. I don't really care much for my kickstand on my 4G, only really used it to show to people. But just in case in the future I get that perfect height nightstand next to my bed where the kickstand comes in handy, I'll want it again .

Just place an order for one of these;
http://www.case-mate.com/HTC-Evo-3D-Cases/Case-Mate-HTC-Evo-3D-Barely-There-Cases.asp
I had the Incipio "Feather" case for my EVO 4G, and it was hands down my fav case out of the half dozen or so cases I tried on my old EVO. Hopefully this new "Barely There" case is similar to my "Feather" ?
UPDATE; Pics on 2nd page

Cant wait to see a review on this. I had one for my EVO 4G and liked almost everything about it, but ended up returning it because the lip didnt come over far to protect the screen. Id like to be able to lay it face down, and not have to worry about the glass touch anything. Im hoping this one will allow that.
look at the camera cutout, doesn't look aligned.. =(

Thats not even a picture of the product on a real phone, could just be bad photoshop. Barely there sucks though since no lay on the table design. Whats the point? You drop it face down and your screwed.

Please do post pics and a quick little review once you receive it. I loved the fleaBay barely there case I kept on my Evo. I actually didn't even realize the "real" name of product as I stumbled onto the case on fleaBay and never needed another. I found the real product right before I sold my Evo right before I got my 3D.
Thanks!
ETA: I am currently using a TPU from TPU Cases and it is really nice. I'm just used to having some options and the thin snap on is one I really like having. The argyle TPU is a real crowd pleaser.
i just bought this one. I loved the Casemate barely there on my EVO 4G. I will let you know how this one works.

I bought this one and its just like the case-mate barely there case. It does have a lip that will protect the screen if you place it face down and its really slim. The cut-outs are all perfectly aligned. Its plastic with soft rubberized coat.

Hmm, sorry. Here is where I got the code from:
http://www.retailmenot.com/view/case-mate.com
It says its for "custom cases" (the ones you can put your own pictures on) so I'm not sure why it worked for my order.
I see theres a new one "july4" for 20% off, mysave10 for 10% off, cmretail10 for 10% off. Just look around
Case just arrived.
This is exactly, I mean exactly what I was looking for. It's just like the best case I ever saw, my Wifes Nexus-S case by MyIncipio, thier ultra slim "Feather" model, but it covers the top of the screen ever so slightly, where as the case for the ogEVO stopped right before top of the screen, which was dumb.
The feel and grip of the case is spot on perfect. Not too slick, not too sticky, but just right.
I hate bulky cases with a passion, don't want my phone looking like a thick bar of soap. Plus I has an OtterBox case on ogEVO and phone still cracked screen from a small drop. So no case can 100% protect you.
I am very satisfied with my purchase here. To me the perfect case.

Great to hear! I actually ordered one yesterday. 20% off coupon and free shipping we nice.
Thank you
This case looks exactly like one I got off amazon for like 8 bucks. The one I got is kind of a frosted look. I love how minimal it is while still having I think the best design for the camera-when its a big opening its not well protected especially from fingerprints. I just wish I could get a holster for it. The other thing the cutouts for the cameras are perfect and I tried an otterbox and they didn't line up near as good.
