Please tell me I'm not the only one who remembers HTC/Sprint mentioning that case with kickstand for the EVO 3D. I just put the phone on order and been looking for that one case all over online. Is it supposed to be an OEM case sold by Sprint only or something? Anyone has any clue?
Case should be available same day you go pick up the phone... Sprint and radio shack will have the case probably best buy as well

Thanks, though I ordered the phone from Amazon Wireless. I'm not getting it on contract, so I'm paying full price for it, which Sprint is having for $549, while Amazon for $469. Kind of a no brainer.
I tried eBay and the likes, no luck. Then I go for google, and it seems HTCPedia has them listed but out of stick or backordered. So basically no luck so far. Hopefully you're right and they have it at the Sprint retailer when I go there as soon as I get the phone.
When i ordered my E3D through sprint this morning one of the accessories available was something called an 'easel case' or something along those lines. It looked like the official ones shown before but the picture was only from the front so I couldn't tell for sure. It also said it had 3 levels of tilt or something like that which I was unfamiliar with from the one we're looking for. It was listed as $45 so I decided against it in case it's not the right one. I'll probably check the store on Friday.
edit:
went back into the premier store and found evo3D accessories. good thing I didn't order it!

it looked very similar from the front in the very small picture they have at the end of checkout, but i though easel case sounded wrong. Guess we're back to square one.
It says it has a stylus holder lol

cool, but i think that every evo case should cover the camera opening and just have cutouts for that lenses and flash/speaker.
Ill hold out for someone to make a hybrid poly/tpu case that covers the camera and has the kickstand. till then ill just use my otterbox defender for day to day and my tpu case from tpucases.com for light duty when I cant have it on my belt (formal dinners and such)
i dont see what the big deal is with the camera. i have had my evo from launch day and it has been naked about 95% of the time (had a seidio case for a bit) and my camera lens is perfectly fine and i am far from careful. dropped may times, always in my pocket, fell down the stairs etc etc.
I was just at my local best buy and they said they do not carry any accessories with htc branding.

I had already seen the HTCPedia one. Too bad just about every case I find is "out of stock". Hopefully we get a lot more to choose from by week's end...

It appears to me, comparing this picture to the Evo 3D in my hands, that the kickstand is on the wrong side for me....would not allow charging? HTC one appears to allow charging by reversing the phone. BTW, I confirm...3D works either way in landscape mode (with micro usb up or down).
Edit: I am assuming that the rounded end is the side that extracts and rests on the table/desk

I went to BestBuy yesterday looking for a case and I saw that one. In my opinion, it has two problems.
1.- The kickstand is made of thin plastic, it might be functional, but it doesnt look very sturdy.
2.- (The biggest one) Once the phone is on the stand, the USB port ends up facing the table so you cant charge your phone and use the kickstand at the same time.
On the other hand, its the only option for now if you have to have one.
I rather wait until the official comes out or the dock.
The official HTC case for the 3VO will be just like the Thunderbolts, nice and slim with a meaty metal kickstand.
i bought the body glove vibe cover from the sprint store and love it. it only comes in purple that i know of. it is 24.99 and i received 25% off for buying two accessories.
edit it fits perfectly in the car dock from sprint.
I shelled out the 35 for the kickstand case (pt) from BB. More than I would usually spend on a case but it doesn't add much bulk at all and the kickstand is nice to have. It does seem on the fragile side but it locks in pretty good so I don't think it will pop out when it's not supposed to. There are 2 settings - out and out a little further. The 2nd enables you to stand it in portrait and thus charge the phone. Not a perfect case, but pretty nice.
The body glove kickstand idea looks cool but it looks bulky and well ... it's purple.

I got this yesterday also...I really like it, and I'm not a case-kind-of-guy! My OG EVO, no case, perfect condition not a single mark on it. I feel this phone has to have it just to be able to set it down safely without scratching the camera lenses which I did on my first E3D within 4 days, not good! I feel a lot more safe with this case and the cheesy little kickstand works fine. Was hoping it would still fit into that HTC car mount but no go. Picked up the universal car mount at Sprint and I am a happy E3D owner!
So has this case been discontinued/never mad haha?
Mobilecityonline and htcpedia no longer list the device. I received an email from mobilecityonline that the shipping date had changed, but the new ETA was simply a blank.
It is unfortunate if this is the case, I was looking forward to this case.
ye,i got a email from mobilecity also,when i went the there site it stated the case was discontinued.this sucks since we never got a chance to use the case.
that sucks, cause that was the case I was looking into getting
Yep, I bought a tpu case (which is a great case btw) to hold me off tell then.
I guess I will wait a little bit and see what comes out.
I'm MAD...
Like damn, the one accessory I wanted the very day I bought the phone.

That case isn't really that great since it doesn't protect the bottom of the phone.....
Man I really wanted this case why would they not make this?!?!
I hope it isn't really discontinued. I had the EVO then went to the Thunderbolt to now the 3D and after being spoiled with kickstands, I need this case.
the Best buy platinum series case w/ kickstand is a good alternative.

And if u know sumone who works at best buy the discount is insane cus its a best buy accessory. kickstand one was like $13 an the other one was $15
htcpedia was quick to charge me for the case when I preordered...if it isnt going to be produced I hope they are just as fast returning my money.

I've come to realize how much I would use a kickstand on my Rezound. I've already placed a backorder for the HTC kickstand case from HTCpedia. I have searched the web for another retailer carrying this case, but cannot find it anywhere.
Anyone else happen to find this case? I'm hoping to be able to get this case sooner rather than later. :/
Bought a shell holster combo from GizmoReady on Amazon. Way better than the one Verizon sells. Fits regular battery. Check it out. And yes it has a kickstand.

Not as slick as the one on htcpedia that runs $25 if that's the one you're talking about but looks the same as the other one they carry and also comes with a holster.
I figure this one is good for hiking when I won't have pockets or a purse since it has a holster and it looks rugged in case of a drop, and I wanted a kickstand for when I need it to watch something. But I'm not sure I'll leave it on at all times, I love the phone without a case and don't want to bulk it up.
Here's one for the extended battery:

I can provide a link if you need it. It is almost EXACTLY as the one at VZW... Says it in the comments...

I just got one from Amazon today--$10 shipped--which appears to be exactly the same one shown on the wireless video. It is also very similar, only the pattern is different, as the one sold by Verizon, except this only fits the standard battery. I don't know about the "rubberized" statement, but this case/holster is definitely hard.
This case fits the phone very well, however, it only wraps the sides, not the top or bottom. It is easy to snap off and on. The phone does not wiggle inside the case like it does on the dual battery Verizon case. It also fits the holster very well and seems to be secure. It has the pull-out stand which works vertically and horizontally. It seems a little flimsy but we'll see how long it last.
It has all the necessary openings: lens, lights, headset, power, volume, rear speaker, and two holes on the back and one on the side that have to do with noise suppression on the phone--the holes are on the phone.
The holster clips works well on my belt and allows for rotation.
Bottom line: I like it. It is like the one I had on my Dinc for two years.
anyone have experience with this case? thoughts?

OK, I'm not a fan. Its an OtterBox knockoff without the hard plastic case. But $9.00, you have nothing to loose!
Isn't it more like this one?
http://www.amazon.com/Technocel-Hol...QO/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1326241379&sr=8-12
For the price I'd go with Technocel over ebay's version. I actually have it and it's quite nice.
Believe it or not they are the SAME EXACT item. Technocel asks a manufacturer in China to make it, then they make it for Technocel, then sell some on eBay themselves. I ran into the same situation with the following:
this Amazon case
and
this eBay case
SAME THING!
I got it on eBay for $2.95 + free shipping.
BoxWave was going to sell it for $19.95 and a shipping charge. I bought it from eBay, while BoxWave was having a pre-sale. (It would be shipped when ready.) People actually paid $19.95 for it.
I emailed the company and told them and their response was "I'm glad you found a similar case."
I sent them the links, and they replied "It is the same, because of this, we will lower our price to $9.95", and they did, but I got the case before it came out in the US directly from the manufacturer at a cheaper price.

The issue I see with this case as well as the Technocel one is the fact neither provide much screen protection in the sense that if your Motorola Photon 4G falls either face down or bounces on the ground and ends up face down, your LCD more than likely will shatter. If I'm not sporting the Otterbox Defender Series case for mine, I'll carry my Motorola Photon 4G in a Trident Aegis Series one. True, the Aegis Series cases don't have a holster clip like the one you reference or the Technocel case/holster combo Mongofrye, but I find the Aegis case by itself is thin enough for keeping in my pocket.

At the same time, both cases provide a lip that protect the screen. At the same time, you have a Gorilla Glass Screen. Now, I love Trident, and I would have a Trident case for my Photon but I could not stand not having a landscape holster. So, that is the only reason why I choose the Defender...
Trident does have wonderful cases though!
Go for the Trident Aegis if you don't mind being without a holster, guys! Great Case!.

i saw this one on amazon and figured it is like the one they sell at the sprint store. I like it because (minus the holster) it is very low profile.
I honestly like very basic protection. i hate adding tons of bulk to my phone. The one on Ebay looks different in the fact that it has a soft inside on the holster and the clip swivels in order to act like a stand. Could be used at a desk and you could flip it around to allow charging while in landscape mode.
Either way, i looked a little deeper into amazon and found i think the same one as the one you posted above for only $2.99 + .99 shipping. I went ahead and ordered it. I'll report back on quality.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006L8APYQ/ref=oh_o03_s00_i00_details
In my opinion, the TPU cases provide probably the best protection with the least amount of bulk, but i just can't stand that there aren't cutouts over the volume and camera buttons. Such a pain. If anyone can find me one, i'll jump on it.
This is just another instance where the case is the EXACT same as the Technocel case listed above, and for this reason, I'm gonna go ahead and order it. Savingsss, oh, how I love savings!

I have the Defender also, but since we started this thread I have been thinking, I have no clue WHY I have the Defender vs. the Commuter? 99.9999999% of the time it's either in my hand or sitting on mouse pad so I can change music playlist? he**, even in grocery store its in my hand or the cart!! Truck has dock? IDK!
I see what you're sayin', bro. After using the defender for about 3 months straight, I get tired of it. I use another case for a few weeks then I switch back.

I might go naked for a change of pace. Last time I cleaned it I forgot how beautiful it was!
I know what you're sayin, man!
I'd be scared sh**less to leave it naked when I am outdoors, though.

Ok, 0.03" but I did not want to brag!!
You're about to get banned. Like I said Quit While You're Ahead!!!
I'm pre-ordering my phone today probably.
Would rather not pay $30-40 for a case at Sprint.
eBay doesn't have any yet.
Looking for a standard plastic case.
(Preferably snap on case)

Will do, thank you. =]
Seidio currently has two, the Surface and the Active, and I'm certain Best Buy will have some sort of combo available when it releases next Friday as thats what they did when the original EVO came out.

I'm getting the commuter and a set of really nice screen protectors for this. I had the Defender for my DInc2; it was too bulky and the built in screen protector sucked a lot. It got dirty really easily and dust got under it too well. I'd rather have a slimmer case and a quality screen protector.
The accessory I'm most excited about is the Media Link though. It's a pretty penny, but that will be a really cool feature. Emulators on your TV with your phone as the controller. It's gonna be real nice.

Leather pouch probably, but fitted case I doubt. They are designed completely differently with similar internals.

i like the defenders shock absorbtion but i dont want a screen protector.. and i say this for one main reason.. ive never liked the way they look.. but also in the 2 years ive owned the evo and the year my wife has owned hers never once has the gorillas glass scratched.. and she abuses hers a lot more then mine.. so unless i can remove the screen protector on the defender ill prolly go commuter

I had a defender for my Evo OG and I was able to remove the protector and use my phantomskinz. It was just held in with some type of adhesive and it actually made a pretty good seal with my screen protector.
So if you want to go without a protector, I would imagine it shouldn't be a problem to remove.
Is there a band to go around it? Similar to how the iPhone antennae issue was "fixed". I don't want a case, but I would like a ~2mm lip to protect the glass when laying face down.
Edit: After some googling, apparently they are called bumpers. I can probably get a cheap-o from ebay after release. Does anyone have any experience with a bumper case?
I'm hoping for Trident to release a case... i love their Aegis on my E4GT...i wont consider another brand

I emailed the TPU-cases guy to see when they would have them ready as I usually buy from him AND will probably buy another one from him once they are ready BUT I did go ahead and order one of the TPU cases from the HTCPedia shop http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-evo-4g-dura-gel-tpu-case.html
Says it should ship "on or before 5/11" so we'll see...
I liked the hard snap on platinum cases from Best Buy. That gun metal color. Hope they have those again.

The only thing I didn't like about those was mine interfered with my screen protector. Meaning it peeled up the edges when I went to put it on.
I will prob be getting the Active Combo from Seidio.

I saw that one too but come on.... 12.99 for a tpu case. That's quite steep. I'm used to paying like 3-5 dollars. I think I'll wait lol.

TPU-cases.com are usually $8 or so in the early stages and then once more knockoffs come to market you can get cheaper. Honestly, I would pay evwn more as long as I have a case the day my phone arrives that I know I will like. Put a case on as soon as box is open and phone will look like new next year when it's time to upgrade, again.
