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 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

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.

Alright so, I'm the type of person who never puts cases on their phones..
The least I would ever do would be an zagg shield.
Though, with the evo 3D I'm sorta feeling a case now.
I'm looking for a really... really thin case.
My friend has the infuse on at&t and she has a really thin case.
It feels almost metal..and only covers the back and the sides.
But it as almost no bulk to the phone..
Anything similar to that for the evo 3d?
thanks!
heres what i bought:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hybrid-Hard...ccessories&hash=item4aac82961c#ht_1814wt_1159
there is also the casemate but its cost more money for almost the same product:

How do you like it?
I personally wouldnt recommend them as they provide no protection at all if you drop the phone face down or it lands on the corner edge. I would go with a TPU case if you need something that is thin, as they wrap around the edges and protect the phone better. I'm not just saying this because I own TPU-Cases either Buy them from whoever you want.. just my opinion of course.
I have the matte back black case from tpu-cases.com and highly recommend them:
http://tpu-cases.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=7&sort=20a&page=1
it's thin, fits perfectly, aesthetically looks great, free fast shipping (they are a U.S. seller so there's no wait time unlike the overseas stuff) with email confirmation, all at a great price. Their current line up have the camera holes lined up and as it's raised, there is protection for the 3D's dual cameras when you lay it flat on a table. The shutter and volume buttons are covered but access is not a problem for me.
Hope this helps.
I have a smoke argyle TPU already. I bought it since I got the phone 3 days before release and an Otterbox wasn't out yet. Once rooting my phone I realized how much I loved how thin it was.
i just bought this one i thought it looked really cool and it cheap so if i dont like it no big loss http://www.ebay.com/itm/Aluminum-Metal-Case-Cover-HTC-EVO-3D-Sprint-H153-/320721844909?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4aac82faad
I bought this one and really like it. It fits very tightly and looks really nice in person. It snaps together securely and if I have any complaints, this tight and secure fit is it. I had to take it off once to do a battery pull and I thought I was going to destroy it getting it off. If you like to frequently swap out spare batteries, this is probably not the case for you. Other than that, I can't find any faults with it.

i like the case alot, fits perfect. It adds no bulk at all which is what i wanted cause i also never used a case on my previous phone just the Zagg shield, i have full zagg on along with this case so the tops and bottom where the case does not cover is still protected. Also i have a tpu case and the otterbox commuter, i use each depending on the kind of things i do that day.
I'm with you, I've never used a case and I always used to bad mouth people who made their brand new phone ugly as **** buy putting a case on it. Hell, I even got my roommate to go naked with his Droid X.
BUT, I dropped my new baby Evo3D a few times already and since I'm no longer rich, I thought, I'd put a case on it. Got one of these bad boys from ebay, $2.19 shipped
The fit is perfect and it doesn't look bad either. Adds minimal thickness. I also ordered a ballistic case just to try it out...we'll see though. I don't want the phone to look like a brick

I had that case also and agree, very nice and doesn't add much bulk at all. Unfortunately, as you mentioned, getting it off the phone is ridiculously difficult IMO. Also, I didn't like the fact that instead of having smaller, precise cutouts for just the camera lenses and the flash, it had one giant cutout in the back for the entire camera module (leaves the area more susceptible to scratches IMO). So I returned it and got a case from tpu-cases.com. Different material but adds about the same amount of neglible bulk to the phone. More importantly for me though, it doesn't have the one giant cutout in the back but rather, instead, has smaller cutouts just for the two camera lenses, flash, and speaker.
how about this? htc official case

I think the case mate barely there is the thinnest case out there. I got a couple of copycat cases from here:
Case-Mate barely there copycat
Another Case-Mate barely there copycat
I bought both of them in black. They turned out to be identical. Both are the same thinness and have the soft touch paint in the back. Now I got 2 of them.... and can only use one..... pushing my wife to get an EVO 3D as well when her contract is up in Nov.
I have a case like the CaseMate Barely There on my 4th Gen IPod Touch and love it. For my 3D, u have all 3 Otterbox cases and use them for different activities.

I have this one, and in a few colors. Really like it, too. For some reason, I get obsessed with trying lots of new cases, so I have about a dozen, probably.
What do you guys think is the best screen Protector for the Rezound? I've tried Invisibleshield, but don't really like the orange peel or rubber feel. I also want something that covers the entire screen and has some fingerprint resistance. Also, anti glare would be nice, but I don't know if they make those. Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks

I also dislike the invisi shields. I hate the feel & when I had one on my Thunderbolt I ended up having to replace it twice.
right now I am enjoying using nothing but if I do get protectors its probably just going to be the basic cheapo ones.
I had a cheap one on my Incredible, then Invisishield, and now nothing for 3 months. I like it better without protection, personally. :-D

just like sexytime.
as Austin Powers once stated they're only needed by sailors who go from port to port.
I'm pretty paranoid about scratching my screen, but also VERY particular about the protector. I tried the ones from VZW, but couldn't stand how it changed the awesomeness of the RZ screen. Didn't like the eggshell feel of the Zagg or I'd go to Best Buy. Been using Steinheil on my DI1 and DI2, but when I checked last week, they still weren't available for the RZ. Same for Ghost Armor.
Hmmmmm.......

how much of the screen does the screen protector actually cover? can we get a close up picture of it?
it's literally the whole screen, except like a milimeter off the sides. it goes down to the bottom of the bezel and is on the top of the bezel (has cutouts fro the camera and the light sensor)
Since I hate shiny screens, I used the same protector film as I have on my ipad2:
Speck Matte :
http://www.amazon.com/Speck-Product...SHKC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322019483&sr=8-1
I can probably make about 6 Rezound sized screen protectors from 1 sheet (the pack comes with 2 sheets...but 1 is on my ipad 2). I made using the crappy screen that came with the otterbox case as a template. Dhen you think you have it the EXACT right size, cut about 1/2 (half) a millimeter off all sides, otherwise you will get hung up on the edges and perpetual bubbles where the film catches the inner "edge/lip".
The matte film lasts long, is fingerprint/smudge resistant, and THANK GOD, its matte (not shiny).
Just be sure you REALLY clean the screen well prior to application, go slow and work out all the bubbles, and do it in a DUST/lint free environment (like a humid bathroom) or a cleanroom (if you have access to one).
god i HATE screen protectors! less than 12 hours on and this stupid ass thing has a damn scratch already. it's only been in my pocket ONCE since putting it on, and it was in there b yitself!
these things scratch if you put it on velvet. that's why i hate screen protectors lol i have a feeling i'll be taking this thing off in a day.
How scratch resistant is the screen? I had always used a screen protector with my Droid X (Steinhiel ultra clear). I hate them though but I am so OCD if I got a scratch on my screen it would drive me crazy. I would like to go without one cause the screen looks so much better.
just checked Steinheil and Phantom Skinz. Both dont have one yet. I emailed them both asking when we ca see it. They are the only ones I have ever used.
I refuse to use ZAGG/ Invisible shield

I bought the Verizon Screen Protector as a stop gap until better products hit the market. Unfortunately that was money wasted. It felt too slick and gave that rainbow effect whenever viewing anything with white background. Like oil on water, I guess because of the anti-glare treatment. I pulled it of after 1 day.
I just hope GhostArmor gets some skins out soon.
I'm looking for one that helps alleviate the fingerprints the most if anyone has any suggestions. I have a Zagg on my Bolt and I don't mind it but I want something a little less orange peel for the Rezound.

I think that the matte/orange peel/egg shell type textures do the most to make fingerprints less noticeable, but I don't know of any screen protectors that flat out repel fingerprints (oils and stuff). That would be really cool though.
I'm a new Note user. I love the phone, but i must admin the size at times can be annoying. I have a protective case for the phone, but i found it to be too cumbersome when throwing the phone in my pocket when i leave the house. What i do now is when i am home i throw the phone in a cheapo silicone case, and when i leave the house, i take it out of the case and put it in my pocket. I'm not crazy about the fact that i am out of the house with my phone with no protection.
Does anyone have this same dilemma? Its not the end of the world, but I'm just curious how others handle it?
Thanks.
I use a leather pocket case. That really protects it. But when I use it the phone is naked and skinney. It's a habit I aquired from my old BlackBerry days.

I have three of the cruzerlite androidified cases. (Green, clear, and white, they had some deal like but 2 get 1 lol) I've always liked tpu cases on all my past phones.
Only problem with the case is how small the opening for the headphone port is. I used a hole punch to open them up. It feels a bit plasticky/hard at first then breaks in and is a bit more pliable. Doesn't add much bulk compared to casemate, trident, candyshell, etc.

Phone is naked in my pocket with screen protector.
When I am in the car, the phone is dock with the car dock.
When i had a note i used the book cover case. Seems to be the best option for some people.
I don't use a case. I bought the leather book like case from the AT&T store that replaces the back piece to the phone but that was short lived. I got tired of having to fold it back just to answer calls etc.

Green Androidified A2 Case for HTC Droid DNA
by CruzerLite
I don't normally promote accessories I buy, but I'm going to start so it hopefully answers other's questions. So I bought this case earlier in the week since i work in a dirty and hazardous (to phones) area. I have to keep my phone on me but i always run the risk of dropping it or crushing it. I can't stand using a large bulky case such at the Defender series even though they are robust and perfect for where i work. I like to keep my phone in my pocket so a slim case is perfect. I tried using a skin but i still wanted that extra guard from a rubber case. This case is very tight. Could have been because i have a carbon skin on my phone already but i definitely liked how it fit on the phone. I also had to be very careful cause the corners took the screen protector off. It didn't have raised buttons on the case which was a downfall as it would make it a bit more functional for the average user. However, most DNA users will ether have the USB cover broken off or will use a wireless charger. My wireless charger worked perfect with this case as well.
If you want a case similar to this then go for it. i have no complaints

Is it any easier to press the volume, lock buttons than without the case since it outlines where they are?
I find it easier to find the buttons cause of the ouline of the case. But no easier to push them, about the same effort.
sent from my rooted DNA
I also have this case and I would agree with your assessment. The volume buttons are about the same to press, a little easier to find due to the cutout. The power button is still hard to hit and probably a little harder, I would have liked raised buttons.
I am a repeat customer of Cruzerlite for a reason. Quality and value, and this case is no different than their other products. It is very sleek and slides in and out of my pocket with ease. It does not attract pocket lint either. The back is clear and you can see the notification led through the case. I also like how Andy is on the back instead of some cheezy argyle pattern. Also it does not leave marks like the Verizon tpu case does, which I also own. My only niggle is I wish the cut out for the volume and power buttons were not cut out, as I feel like it does make it easier to push the buttons as they are really flush. The vzw case doesnt have the volume cut outs but its not a deal breaker by any means. At least the holes are big enough to smash your thumb through.

I'm a big Jacksonville Jaguars fan (yeah I know they forever suck) and the teal cruzerlite case looked pretty sick on my Rezound. I got a demo unit for DNA in green and I really hope they seal in the volume rocker port like the vzw tpu case its much better because how flush the buttons are. Also the power button sealed in would be nice. I would buy several cases if they did a revision until then I am sticking with the blue tpu from vzw.

It just came to me, lol it was a good idea. Stolen
Just got mine delivered buy 2 got 1 free. Red, black and clear. Love the case, but it doesn't ,"share" nicely with my zagg screen protector. The shield bubbles up on the sides. But I do love the case, adds virtually no bulk to the phone and feels great in my hand!

Are you guys using a screen protector on this phone? It seems that one may be unnecessary with the gorilla glass 3 we have on this thing. I'm still debating whether to get one or not.

yeah im using the one that came with my spigen neo-hybrid but its a fake and its already bubbling. Im thinking of getting a glas t slim glass protector because its so clean and slim. If you plan on selling the phone later on then you should.
Using an SGP crystal. Even gorilla glass 3 can scratch if it meets something like sand. I may go with a glass protector eventually.
I'm using the iLoome Screenmate glass protector and love it. Only thing is it does not have rounded edges like some do. I would recommend iLoome or MIME for tempered glass protectors. The MIME has rounded edges and you can use coupon code "bbq" for an additional 11% off plus free shipping through Monday for memorial weekend. I used both on my iPhone 5 and both companies have excellent customer service.
I got Tech Armor for just under $6 for 3. It's very nice and clear although I don't know about durability.

I will also be using that, just exchanged my S4 so if all goes well with my tests and checks I'm putting it on tonight. I'll never not put a screen protector on a phone.
I'm using the Glas.Tr. Its worth every penny

I'm still using the one that came on the phone. Lol. I couldn't decide what protector I wanted to go with, or if I'll even use one, so I figured I'd leave this one on until I decide. I will say this might be the best install I've had on a phone. NO DUST OR AIR BUBBLES.
I did cut off the tab at the top. I slid a credit card underneath the tab and cut the section level with a razor to make look nice.
Yeah I was bummed when I removed the OEM screen plastic from my nex4 cause that same day I put my keys in my pocket with my phone for all of ten minutes. Still have the little marks it made.
I bought a screen cover after that and ripped it off a few days later cause my diztronic phone case was messing up its edges that went all the way to the rounded glasses ends.
Had I kept the original it would still be perfect I bet. Still good though just saying I learned that the OEM is fine for a long time.

It's a good idea to use one anyway. I had someone at the Verizon store apply mine for me.
Steinheil oleophobic on mine. Can't even tell it is there and feels just like glass. Keeps fingerprints minimal too.

I almost left the default on my replacement, I never saw such a decently placed factory protector in my life. In the end though I decided to give my SGP a try and do it in the bathroom after I got out of the shower. Using the hinge method, this is the first time I've never gotten a speck of dust on the screen and placed it 99% perfectly. Can't get much better than this:

The only flaw I see is around the front facing camera, it could have been moved to the right a micrometer. Actually, looking at the home button cutout, I think that's more of a cutting issue on SGP's side because that looks perfect vertically and horizontally.

Looks great to me. I normally get the SGP Ultra Crystal for my devices, but I was thinking about trying the GLAS this time around. Since the original protector is clear and doesn't have lines or writing on it, it has given me some more time to make my decision. Which version of the SGP are you using?

That's what I'm using, the SGP Ultra. Got it for 50% off when I bought the case from them. First experience with them, but both case and screen protector are very nice.
I started using screen protectors on the note 2 and this phone after all the phones I own. Because I don't notice a difference in quality or feel. And find it much easier to clean. and the slightest hair line scratch will drive me crazy. I'm not awesome at putting them on. So when I get devices. I make the salesmen put it on. And if it's not mint they try again and again till its perfect or I don't want it and won't pay for it haha.
