Hey guys, just thought Id share some pictures and a review of the body glove case for the 3d (search turned up nothing). Its nothing special, but you cant try it out at the store without buying it so hopefully it'll help some people out who are on the fence.
The case is very minimalistic, but i like the low profile design. Very sturdy, fits the phone...well like a glove. I think red and black is the only option. The camera is also well protected by a plastic bezel on the case which sits about 2mm off the surface of the camera lens. Overall, good case. Dropped it once already and it held up well. This case does not fit into the sprint car dock. In fact, i cant see any case fitting in that thing (what were they thinking there?). The edges around all the buttons and ports are chamfered, and are very easy to reach.
Enjoy!

I looked at the case in the store, didn't think it looked that good. After seeing your photo's, it looks pretty damn sexy. My have to go pick it up. Thanks for the review.

Ditto. I took one glance in the store and discarded the possibility. But i am a big fan of the poly cases, this is the one from my old EVO. I think I'll wait for those to be available. They fit really tight and they last forever.

Just wanted to follow up this thread after a day of use. The bezel around the cameras fell off today, which really pisses me off. For $30 they cant even throw in an extra cent of glue. Its just press-fitted in (hardly).
I've pretty much sworn off all body glove products
although it looks good, but after using a body glove case on my Evo 4g at launch last year, I found that the case actually scratched up the framing of my phone in a month.
possibly the worst case I've ever had for a phone.
This one does have felt inside, maybe they learned. I'm still not a big fan of it, though. The red has some clear film that's already starting to rub off, this may be the last body glove product I buy as well. Besides their wetsuits...

For thin cases the best in my opinion are made by Incipio. The Feather and Edge models both for the EVO 4G were fantastic. Felt on the inside, and hard rubbery/plastic outside, it felt so good, plus were super thin and barely added any bolk to the phone whatsoever.

i picked this up the other day (i'm a case whore...hard to find one i truly like, so far)
I love the overall design of it, everything about how it is, is just about perfect....BUT the biggest flaw is it's a body glove case and the quality sucks, the red scratches off, that bezel on back looks great but flawed in execution...it looks great but the build quality is not there. what a shame.
on my 4G i went through a lot of cases...but the one that lasted the longest was the best buy branded siedo surface...my favorite was the incipio, but it cracked when i dropped it..phone was fine, the case did its job...
I also have the best buy platinum case for the 3vo, its a super tight fit getting it on and off, but it still feels loose...kinda odd.
so my search for the perfect case continues...not an otterbox fan, those official HTC cases shown not too long ago should be available in july...so maybe one of those will satisfy my case cravings. lol.
would love to go caseless but i don't trust my kids...or myself.
Hey..did you buy that at a sprint store?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D
I have the black and silver body glove. I'm a little paranoid because I used a hard plastic body glove on my OG evo and it scratched it all up... We'll see how it goes. The quality is definitely extremely poor...scratched the silver up in less than 2 days.

NICE COVER!!!!! you have homepage from it?
I have one too. It is really a sweet case. Only flaw is the black bottom doesn't stay connected well to the other part of the red. Actually I put a little piece of double sided tape on black case to hold it in place. Works perfect now
I bought one with my 3vo on launch day. Its quite the sexy case. Its snug, I have no loose problems. However like mentioned the clear is scrapping off in a corner. Planning to get it exchanged.Tuesday.

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.

i personally love the case. its not as bulky as everyone says it is. the GS2 is a lil too slim in my opinion and this case makes it a suitable size for me. fitment is almost perfect...i say almost because it seems like the hole for the speakers are slightly misaligned(shown in the picture below). the camera, 3.5mm jack and the micro usb holes are a perfect fit. the volume and power buttons are easy to press while in the casing. the black shiny plastic is very durable, but does show smudges if you have greasy or oily hands. the cool grey rubber provides grip and is placed perfectly along the sides and frontal rim of the casing. here are some pics:

I saw this in the AT&T store and tried it out with my phone, very nice case made 110% to fit the GSII but it ends up being VERY thick pretty and about 1.5x the thickness of the phone itself thus eliminating the thinness of this phone. If you don't mind the thickness or really need the protection then it's a great case for you.
had exact same case for my Thrill. I loved it, but like what aquarianperry mentioned above, it does make feel a little bulky. kick stand was pretty useful when it was needed
Yeah don't like the added thickness. I really hope they come out with the body glove case like the one for the cappy, one of the best cases -)

I agree! I had the BodyGlove case for my Captivate and I loved it. Sleek and smooth yet durable.
using it now- makes the phone thick but it is durable and sturdy
kickstand will come in handy when i want to eat and watch tv shows at lunch
I find the kickstand to be really useful when I'm laying down with the phone on my chest.
I ordered that same case in white from Amazon on Sunday!.. I had that same case on my LG thrill and I absolutely loved the kick stand..

Does this come with a holster, or has someone found a compatible one i.e. Platinum ?
an INFUSION of REALITY
I've got this (they totally saw me coming - got the Moshi iVisor screen protector as well) and in spite of the extra bulk, I love it. I had the Body Glove on the Cappy and wouldn't mind one similar for the GS2, but the kickstand on this totally rocks! AND I'm a klutz, so a little extra protection certainly isn't bad in my case (heheh, no pun intended).
I have a white one n it's great...
review and pics now included in original post
Doesn't it block the top mic? The mic on top is behind the headphone port almost on the edge.
I've already dropped my GS2 5-7 times pretty hard, phone is perfect and case takes a good beating. Makes the phone thick, but I don't care. Wish this thing was easier to take out of a jean pocket, but those rubber sides grip like crazy. Other than that, love the stand, feels like I'm going to break the stand but I love it. Had my GS2 for a few days before I went to get a case for it, almost dropped it once, then got smart.
This one blocks the secondary mic as well.
no no no no no
Got mine from an AT&T COR Store... It has a big cutout for the headphones and mic unlike that black one posted by OP
I love this case btw! I didn't think I'd like it at first because I thought the POP case for the Infuse and Thrill were way too bulky.
I find this to be slightly bigger than "perfect size" which is fine with me. It doesn't add that much weight either.
The kickstand also works great in the car when I use the phone for GPS Navigation LOL
I was asking because I have the white version too and the cutouts are different than the black one from the OP. Mines exactly like the post above me.
I got a black one from Amazon last week (CM014637).
Looks the same as the OP however all the cut-outs are different. There's nothing over the volume and the top and bottom aren't blocking the mics. (Just like the white version above).
why is there a hole above the volume rocker in the OP's case? what purpose could that serve?
i have the exact same case... but my holes/cutouts are very different.
Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. This case is awesome. I first wanted one when I got my Skullcandy case for my iPod touch and have been waiting for one built for an Android phone since. I like the case because it doesnt fall apart like other hard cases when its dropped. It slides together with the small black bottom piece and stays together. I found it pretty cheap on eBay and would highly recommend it. Matches the phone colors perfect with the deep red.

Nice! Thanks for the heads up. How difficult is the case to get off incase you need to do a battery pull?
just ordered one in red. i was stuck between the commuter case and this icon case. for 8 bucks shipped. why not?! thanks
Pretty easy. It fits snug because of the felt lining inside the case but it's easier than one of those hard jelly cases
Cool, thanks!
@quikfinger00 is this the auction you bought from? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Body-Glove-HTC-Rezound-Icon-Case-Red-Flat-Back-Free-Shipping-9248201-/120840910311?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1c22adf5e7#ht_918wt_1141

thanks 06stang and quikfinger00. I just bought one off ebay as well. I also have the commuter so I'll let you guys know what I think about the differences once it comes in!
Hey fellas. My case came in yesterday! this case surpassed my expectations. The red color is more of a dark metallic color and actually looks pretty beastly. All my prior phones (blackberries, voyager, incredible, DROID x, thunderbolt, gnex have had black cases but I really have to say that the color on this case is the shnit. I love the soft rubber feel and like the nice lip around the screen. Thin enough to keep the phone thin but thick enough to keep the phone safe in case of drops to the face. The interior has a quality feel (soft velour) to it and the phones fits snugly in the case. The case is also easy to connect together and remove for easy battery swaps. I have a otterbox commuter case coming in as well but I think I'll be keeping this one on more often except for when I need added protection or a more professional look for business meetings, etc, etc. I'll post pics tomorrow and will post back about my quick thoughts for the commuter case..
Sent from my HTC Rezound
Hey guys, so I've been using the body glove case for a couple days now. I definitely like the slimmer form factor compared to the commuter.
Pros: Definitely slimmer then the commuter.
It fits and covers the phone nicely so you see the whole screen (the commuter covers about half the htc logo).
Quick to get off in case you need to pull the battery.
Appears to be pretty sturdy and has a really snug fit.
Has a little bit of a less slippery back since its very lightly textured.
Has openings for the mics and what not where the commuter covers some of them
Colors and look is sweet.
Cons:
It doesnt have any internal padding on the sides so I dont know how well it would protect the phone from a hard drop if it landed anywhere besides on its back.
The back is still kind of slippery, but a little less then the commuter feels imo.
So far I like it and will probably only use the commuter at times if I know im going to be doing something that its more prone to getting dropped liked going out to the bars.
Hope this helps anybody thats been kindof iffy on whether or not to buy

Any paint chipping off? Considering the gray/black one.
Theres a tiny bit of paint chipping where the two pieces meet. It also seems like theres a bit of metal underneath that paint. Maybe its just chrome plastic. This case looks to be of much better quality then previous cases made by body glove

Had the case since the beginning of January and it's looking fantastic. No drops but lots of sliding around on tables and banging around a car shop.
I bit on this case because of this thread, just got it in.
it is light years beyond the oem htc plastic case from verizon with the red back/htc logo...
this case is the bees knees for me so far... love it.
I have this case also...
Along with a Seidio Active case...
The Body Glove does fit very snug on the ReZound...
Question I have is, has anyone had an issue with the case scratching the gloss edges of the phone?
I had this issue with my Dinc and a Seidio case.
Lego
ya, i've had the body glove case put some small scratches on the 'chrome edge' of the device... nothing i can't forget about, but it's definitely noticeable.
Just dropped it for the first time while walking the dog. Ouch...
Pretty much killed the top edge of the case. Bummer

I've had mine for a few months now, It's still in descent shape, had a few falls. It fits great, and looks good. I use it in combo w/ the zagg shield.
It did scratch the chrome around the edge of the phone, but nothing to terrible.
overall a great case.
I just purchased this. I've been looking for a decent case. I did like the Body Glove when I had it on my Original Droid, although it was a poor design because of the Droid's slide-out keyboard, but I still liked the feel of it. Looking forward to this. I should get it by the end of this week coming up.
I really like this case. Definitely better than the hard rubber one from Verizon.
Hey All. Got my Amaze yesterday and its already up and running on the Energy ROM with faux kernal; thanks to those respective devs. With the flashing out of the way for now, time to look into some cases. As everyone is aware, amaze is not the lightest or thinnest phone, so a case with minimal weight would be desireable. I ran into a matte snap on case from ebay, wanted to know if anyone here has any feedback on these. I am not going after the price (I am open to spend whatever for the ideal case), but more so on the "thin" part. Sadly, I can't post the url due to my noob status, but its easily searchable under "Matte BLACK Hard Snap On Thin Back Case Cover For HTC T-Mobile Amaze 4G".
Looking forward to being part of the Amaze community!
I have a two piece black rubberized case on my one amaze, and a one piece hard case on the other one. Both are light, and fit pretty good. the two piece fits tighter, and has cutouts for all the mic holes on the back cover etc. and they all line up. its just a cheap ebay case. And both are thin. Any cheapie case you get on ebay will be light, and the best part is after a couple months just pay $3-5 and get a new one.
The one piece doesen't cover the top and bottom of the phone, just the sides, so it won't protect as well as the two piece, and if I ever have to pop the two piece apart to get at the back cover, it comes apart easy.
I'd get a cheap two piece, try it out. if you need more protection, then upgrade, but i'd start at ebay.
Be careful with some of the cheap ebay snap-on cases. I got one for a previous phone that was front and back pieces that snapped together. It was thin and looked OK but it would pop open when dropped and the phone would come out and land unprotected. It was ok for scratch protection and keeping the screen off the table but provided very little to zero drop protection.
Thanks for the info. Yeah I have to consider the drop protection. When I was searching youtube for cases, the videos were showing cases which was huge. Yes it protects the phone, but it’s very uncomfortable to carry around. Might have to try some on from the local mall kiosk if anything.
I just went with a cheap ebay case from eforcecity and I'm satisfied. I think I paid $6 shipped and it came with a screen protector.
I got one from ebay that is really good, it comes with a holster. Trust me, thiz isnt like the ones that are cheap made and snaps when minimal force aplied to it. This is high quality. Not bulky either.

I too have this case, it works great. I have not noticed any difference in my network connection signal strength which was a concern and has provided good protection for the phone in its couple of drops. I work in a hydraulics shop with hardened concrete floors and it has held up well. As a side note the case also holds up well when exposed to mineral and petroleum based hydraulic fluids.

With such a beautiful phone, I really dont want to cover it up. I bought a very minimal case but I'm not sure if I will use it or not. Its also a big phone so it may be easy to fumble so even though I have never dropped a phone, the thought of having that case on there for the what if moment.
So are you going to go Naked or is the security of having a case more important to you?
With the exception of a snack size Ziploc bag to keep dust out at work I always go naked and haven't had any problem yet but I hope to keep this phone for a while so I have been shopping around for the perfect case
I have a full body set of Xtreme Guard protectors on it, basically a cheap Zagg without the orange peel.
I would love to go naked but because its such a beautiful phone i need some protection. So ill be using a case thats got minimal protection but still keeps it nice and thin

That is what I have ordered as well. Can't go wrong. Ordered a full body set and a spare screen protector.. Used Zagg on my iPhone 4 and the orange peel was horrible.
I have an Infuse 4G car dock.. so can't add too much of a case without making that no longer work.. (although I am going to likely modify the holder a bit and see if I can make it work with a case.. will see)
I am assuming that the 3rd party accessories will start appearing soon.. some pretty nice cases.. the phone I find is a bit smooth and hard to hold onto.. nearly dropped it a couple of times.

I would never do that in my life, all my previous phones were protected by full body protectors and TPU or silicon cases. When I get this device nothing will change, I don't take no chances with stuff like this; GSIII deserves to be protected IMO.

I have an Infuse 4G car dock.. so can't add too much of a case without making that no longer work.. (although I am going to likely modify the holder a bit and see if I can make it work with a case.. will see)
I am assuming that the 3rd party accessories will start appearing soon.. some pretty nice cases.. the phone I find is a bit smooth and hard to hold onto.. nearly dropped it a couple of times.

I ordered the infuse charger but cancled after thinking i wouldnt be able to use it with a case. Please post a review with pictures if you are able to modify.
I have a invisi shield on mine fitted specifically for the gs3. i like that alot. keeps the big nice screen protected and scratch free. The back of the phone also has the invisi-shield on it. Im currently shopping around for cases to add to the protection also. I have a tendency to lap my phone when getting out of the car. Its the only time my phone has a chance to touch the ground. You can Never get to much protection. i would hate myself forever if i destroyed this beautiful machine
I'm naked at the moment with pebble blue and I like the color now, I usually don't put cases on my phone but don't feel like paying for insurance so I got a tpu case from amazon it should be here this week, will see how I like it

Raw and naked here, hate cases and screen protectors
I plan on getting a trident Kraken. I don't care about the phone looks that much.

I use that pouch in tan. Never liked the feel or look of a beautiful phone in a nasty plastic or rubber case.

i never go naked. This is the case i just ordered. http://www.amazon.com/Clear-Android...41036029&sr=8-1&keywords=galaxy+s3+cruzerlite
I went naked on my Captivate for 2 years. It has a few dings and scratches, but nothing on the screen.
The purpose of these small slim phones is that they be...small and slim!
putting a case on it destroys that.
Yup naked. I don't think I've ever bought a phone case

I have not used a cover on my vibrant, GSII or now on my GSIII... I am not saying this is for everyone... I just loathe the bulkiness and non-tactile feel of ALL cases.
ive never used a case on my phones and wont with the s3. i will be getting a pouch/sleeve though.
went with the alcantara in grey

Would prefer to go naked, but with a device this gorgeous I'm gonna have to get some kind of protection for sure....
