very pleased with seidio / platinum defender [updated with photos & comparison] - HTC EVO 3D

I'll post photos later but if someone is looking for a good alternative to the otterbox defender I highly recommend this one. Yes it adds bulk, but I go on hikes and mountain biking frequently. The button presses are very responsive through the case! I really like the rubber flap over the camera and charging port. Fits nice and snug in the case!
It's $50 at BB. I think the main advantage is that the rubber does NOT collect lint like the otterbox case does. I'd highly recommend this as an alternative. Very pleased!
I also included photos of it compared to size of a naked bb 8330(work phone). With the case it's under a 1/4 inch thicker then the bb.

Nice pics, thanks for posting. I am waiting for the Ballistic or Kraken II, but from your description, it seems like the Seidio is a great option. I had the 1st line of them for the 1st gen Evo and they fell apart, I know they have since improved the design.

Nice review. As for the Otterbox collecting debri. After a couple months it will no longer do that, just FYI
NCH

I have this case and after about a month of it being on I decided to take it off to pull the battery and the hard case part scratched my evo3d. I love the case but I'm not very happy with some paint spots missing. Do they have a customer service number to call and complain. I noticed this a few days after my 30 day return period. Not happy.

Silicone Skin X Rubberized Protector

Hi, i´m new here and I have a doubt.
My old phone was a smt5600 but the first thing a become very used was the joystick.
So i find this silicone skin with joystick(central button) protector but is more ugly than the devil and maybe brings more trouble than protect

the second option is this
Black Rubberized Protector
the second option, ins´t hard, so I liked more
if the first one really protect my front buttons I will use.
For screen I will use bestskinsever and for the keyboard I need find something to protect too if possible.
If anyone can give some opinions I will like
Sorry for the english or noob question.
tks
I use something just like your second photo. I like it alot...it makes my phone a tad thicker, but the black looks nice and the grippy surface is great. It doesn't slip out of your hand so much.
Yea, me too. I use a blakc "rubberized crystal" cover that i got from this website
www.pocketsolution.com
and it works fantastic. it does make the phone a littl ebit bigger, but the protection that it has is well worth it, ive drpped my phone onto concrete a few times and nothing happened.
it usually runs around like 14 bucks or so, but i have codes for discounts on pocketsolution.com for free shipping and for like 20% off. send me a pm if you are interested.
That link doesn't work. It's an empty URL with ads and stuff.
...but you can get those black grippy covers on E-Bay for like five bucks. Mine was ten shipped. Not too bad for what you get! Just search for "8525 black case" or something.
tks, I bought the second option.

Do you know if this exists for evo 3D ?
Thanks
I've never seen one like it. I tried searching for it. I think its called a bumper case but google didn't come up with anything like that.
"We're coming from a pure power source."
Yep this is the name of that kind of stuff.
Found one on ebay : http://cgi.ebay.fr/For-HTC-Sprint-E...ccessories&hash=item43af137e3c#ht_2446wt_1185
Yea I always get TPU cases for my phones. Not bulky, good protection and they aren't sticky like silicone. I think he was looking for that exact type though, just side coverage and no back. I might be wrong.
"We're coming from a pure power source."
HTC makes a killer silicone case for the 3D, I picked one up yesterday for $7 at radio shack and its nice and snug. Not sure if that's what you were looking for but here is a youtube video of the case.

Quite good on the video
What about the thickness of the device with the case ?
I love my Otter Box Commuter ~$7

With that case on it makes it so the camera is protected just slightly so it adds very little bulk to the phone and it feels very comfortable in your hands.
I'm using capdase softjacket for my 3vo.....but it getting loose and more loose everytime i change my baterry (i got spare battery).....the quality material is not good enough for the people with spare battery....like me....hahahaha

I've just got the Roxfit Slimline Book Case from Amazon today, alas, no phone as yet! Its cheaper than the official Sony case, I paid £13.50, but is well made with a quality feel to it. Obviously I cant comment on fit or durability but Ive always had my phones in cases and this is one of the more premium feeling cases ive owned. Well worth the money based on its build quality.
Inside the front cover the material has a soft rubbery feel that grips onto the screen whilst closed to stop it moving around (roughly tested with my iphone 5 in the housing). The back of the case also folds away, similar to the official case so the phone can be placed in the charging dock. The outer material is similar to the apple iPad cover. The clear plastic shell that holds the phone has a thin foam layer in to absorb any shock and prevent any scratches on the rear glass panel.
I've still got a week wait for my phone before I can test it thoroughly.

My G3 Setup (screen protector, case, wrap), what's yours?

So, after wanting to try a wrap for so long, and seeing how it doesn't exactly provide the ultimate protection that I wanted for my G3, I combined a few elements to come up with a setup that works perfectly for me and looks nice at the same time. First, I got the Tech Armor Ultraclear Ballistic Glass screen protector. It fits perfectly, I still get maximum input, and barely notice it's there.
Then, I got the Teak Wood wrap from Slickwraps. Finally, in order to protect the corners and sides, but still be able to appreciate the wrap, I got a bumper case from Nillkin. Love the combination and the bumper case is exactly what I was looking for, for a little added protection. The case is very snug, a perfect fit with all the right cutouts in place.

Looks pretty sweet and great idea with the wrap on back cover I like it and should protect against scratches, doesnt take away the nice design LG have done like a full cover would.
Another benefit would be more efficient wireless charging(if charging with case on and using stock LG wireless charger)since no bulky cover, looks to me like LG wireless charger would easily fit between that bumper, could be wrong though.
The Nillkin Bumper is working 100% with wireless charging (at least with the Nokia DT910)

Incipio Area Case Review!

So I decided to try out this new Incipio case called the Area. I went with the frosted version because it's a cool contrast for the black phone, although I like the case so much I might go and try out the black version of it as well!

So when I first got the case, it was a little beefier than I thought from the pictures on Amazon...but it's not a bad thing. The corners are reinforced so that it's definitely protective if it falls. I actually dropped it off my counter in the bathroom and it landed on the floor and protected it fine! (I never drop my phones, so I was lucky I had a beefier case on it this time!!)
The buttons are awesome! They aren't shaped like buttons, but rather, each button has a little raised mark of what it does. The sides of the case are completely flat, but once you're near a button, you feel the outline of it's shape. And on top of it, they're really easy to press, which is hard to find in a gel/tpu case like this.
The frost matte back feels cool, and all of the cutouts are shaped perfectly.
I've got the spigen screen protector on it that wraps around the curve of the device, and there's no issue with this case pulling it up on mine, so that's another plus.
All in all, this is an awesome case for the price.
Amazon link:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01EBFD1W8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
This case isn't on Incipio website. I believe it's a bit of branding trickery. I ordered one anyways to check it out.
