Ok, so here's why I ask (I tried searching but I really couldn't find a similar thread here):
I have the white Evo LTE - I picked the white because I really like the way it looks with the silver.
DILEMMA: I like the slimness of the TPU cases, but I also like using a belt clip when I'm out and about.
Have any of you come across a belt clip that will work well with a TPU case, like the Cruzerlites, and be a good fit?
I was in the same boat as u. Ima fan of the tpu cases but wanted a nice holster so I bought this one.

It came with a nice hard shell case but my evo and my tpu case fit in perfectly too so I keep using my tpu in the holster instead of the hard case.

Yeah I think if you get a holster that comes with a hard case or is designed to work with a case it will fit. My Seidio holster is compatible with a tpu case even though it came with a hard case.

You know, I didn't even really think of that. I wasn't sure a production clip would be compatible. Off to my local store to find one!

hi
I bought this nice phone, but it looks kind fragile so I wanna buy a case.
but because I'm from czech republic and there are no shops where I can try these cases [how they fit and how I feel them in my hand]. I really need your help, which one to pick. I'll buy the case from ebay.
I watched some videos and both cases look fantastic. But I can't judge how nice and tight silicon fits. Which case is smaller. [better for me] and which has batter grip
btw I hate touching my camera on evo [big,cold, sharp edges - really wanna get rid of this!!!]
seidio has the camera "in hole"
and Tough has silicon over it
I love to carry my phone on belt, is there some usable holster for Tough case ?
Go for case mate its tight from what I have seen.
and case mate looks like it also has a better grip.. but only thing which stopped me to buy it is that I don't know how can I attach it to my belt? Is there any compatibile holster or someting similar to use ?

Seidio is alright overpriced and tends to break . They have holsters for there cases. That always is a pain for me to find a good case and holster. I went and bought a trident kraken case and I'm more then happy with it comes with a holster . Get them on eBay cheaper then from trident site.
The case is light and solid. Anyways hope you find something a lot of cases are good.
Most big companies have holsters for the cases they make.
I saw some videos with kraken and it's superb case with best features,like kickstand and belt holster, which is the most I can imagine from a good case. But its really huge, expensive case.. class of otterbox defender rather than midsized case like what I want.. but great case,no doubt.
I really can't make decision which case to buy
Is there any midsized case (can be even just silicone if fits tight) which is great in other written aspects and has belt holster option?? Maybe I overlooked something.

Look at the kraken thread I have pics of my case and there is one with a pic of the defender case next to it. Kraken isn't as big as folks think its smaller thinner then otterbox defender . To me its slim prefer it over the defender and seidio also over the others I have used.
EBay u can snag a kraken for 25 bucks on there free ship too.
I don't know of anything else that is worth having to keep your phone protected to the max with anything slimmer that has a good holster .
I have the Case-Mate Tough Case. Love it. Very tight fit. Been dropped a couple times and it is good to go. I even put an Invisible Shield screen cover on it. Fits very well with case. Best combo yet! Even fits perfect in my Seido desk cradle and iGrip car mount kit.
I remember Seidio makes those belt holsters for phones without a case. I've been searching around and all I found at the ones WITH some sort of case to be used with the holster.
I kind of prefer the naked device in the clip-on holster like Seidio makes. Sadly they don't/didn't made any for naked device, yet.
Any suggestions? I'm not used to keep the phone in my pocket. Oh yes I'm using the OEM extended battery and back.
yeah i would like to find one as well
I tried 3 different seidio ones i thought might work and all were a fail running naked. Best i came up with is a diztronix tpu case and evo 3d seidio holster.
Well I found this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/170770107789
$4.40 shipped.
I'm going to bite the bullet and see how it works... I kinda prefer Seidio's padding inner design though.
Interesting.... Keep us posted.
Looking for a quality leather belt clip/holster for my 4G LTE and not finding much.
This is what I had for my Evo and 3vo
http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-messenger-side-case-with-belt-clip.html
Looking for the same thing for my Evo LTE.
Found this:
http://www.amazon.com/Horizontal-Le...7I/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1338874338&sr=8-15
and not much else.
Do any of you know of something similar that isn't a cheap $12 POS?
I also found this and it's right up my alley.
http://www.spigen.com/htc-evo-4g-lte-crumena-leather-pouch-series.html
but no belt clip.
I got something like that from walmart. It's in their electronics/cell phone accessory section. It's textile, not leather, but has a similar clip on the back. Uses velcro not magnets to hold the front closed (somewhere I read that magnets can be damaging to the digitizers????). For $10, I can't complain. Phone still fits even with the tpu cover on.
If you got no cover, verizon has a nice leather case that fits also, and is leather. $20
Thanks for the reply - I'm looking for something a bit nicer than textiles. I'd really prefer leather.
Any idea what phone the verizon case is for?
I too have been looking for a good leather belt case, but have found none.
Have you found one yet?

Still looking. I have a local contact who works exclusively in leather. I've asked him to see how much it would be to make a case like the HTC one I already have, with the higher quality of the Spigen one.
I'm still looking. Anyone find one that fits yet?
I apparently used the wrong search terms and didn't see this thread until just now after posting this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697882
They day I got my phone in the mail I went to best buy since I knew sprint didn't have a leather case yet. Found this, it's by rocketfish. Best holster I ever had, and I only use holster's with all my phones. I don't like hard cases. The magnets are strong, it feels great, soft inside, the clip is very strong so it won't come off your belt, and the best part is there is a hole in the bottom you can use a finger to push the phone out with so you can get it out of the holster easier. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Rocketf...Id=5070815&st=rocketfish phone case&cp=1&lp=3
I got the one for the evo 3d for my LTE and it fits little snug but it works only thing I could find. I might need to get the last one a bit expensive but it is what I wanted just like my old blackberry pearl case.

I also bought this case. I highly recommend it if you want a horizontal holster
Edit: I decided that I wasn't gonna run this phone naked, so I exchanged the holster for the Platinum Series case and holster. Forgot to check and see if the Platinum case fit in the leather holster. If someone doesn't try it before Sunday, I will, and post results. I really liked the leather holster

That appears to be one of the better leather cases I've seen to date.
I'll check it out tomorrow at my local Best Buy.
Thank you for the link.
Noreve
Hello Everyone,
Hopefully Noreve will come out with one soon. They have one for the One X
Monnie
Definitely headed to Best Buy tomorrow. That's just what I was looking for and not finding. Looks about like the old HTC leather case I had and still used with my 3D.
I'm pretty sure that I'm going to get a custom leather case from easecase. They've been around on ebay for a long time and I've seen reviews going back to the fuze praising their cases.
Did you ever get your easecase case? How is it?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
I'll be looking into easecase as well. They made a nice one for my OG EVO to my specs (I wanted it to fit a cased device).
Not cheap, but they do good stuff.
SPE Leather Cases are the best. Period.
I've been using them since the OG Evo.
I'm waiting for them to release the case for the EVO LTE.

I also ordered myself a crocodile case from PDair.
It just came in, and works great.

I'll upload some pictures later.
I know this is a old thread but might as well ressurect it .
I bought this belt case
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0083VHWFE/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
Hopefully it fits my EVO 4G LTE and my SGS3. Its only $5 after shipping.
Anyone know if there are any Holsters in which TPU encased EvoLTEs will fit in?
Is like to know as well, as I just ordered my tpu case
Ive been told that the Seido surface holster will work. I have the Diztronic matte black TPU but no phone yet. I plan to get the phone and holster on friday. Ill report back.
The surface holster does indeed work. Very good fit. it's slightly harder to get the car into the holster (sticks a bit at the top), but it's not bad at all.

I just stopped by a best buy mobile to try my TPU encased EVO to see if it fits in the Platinum[Seidio] surface holster and to my surprise, it fits pretty nicely. It's too bad BBM doesn't sell the surface holster by itself...
I just bought the Mobo Carrera slim Horizontal case (for the Galaxy Nexus) and I have to say that I'm very happy with it. It fits the LTEvo nice and snug. The phone doesn't budge at all, especially when shaken vigorously. Also magnet doesn't come off when turned upside and shaken hard. The case is nice and slim to complement the slimness of the LTEvo. The interior is outlined in red leather (sort of complements the phone as well). The belt clip is made of metal (but covered in leather) and swivels but the swivel is rigid and doesn't move with little force with is good to me; stays in the position it is set to. Has the opening at the bottom to allow you to push the phone up to easily remove it.
If you are interested in a horizontal case, then this might be the one for you. Just google Mobo Carrera Horizontal case Galaxy Nexus; amazon has it here Mobo Carrera Horizontal Carrying Case. Other site sell it as well.
I bought 2 more slim cases and I'll write about them here as well when they come in this coming week.

Well I didn't keep the other two cases. One was too big for the LTEvo that the phone flopped around in the case. That was a killer for me, so I didn't even bother to give it another thought.
The other one is the one pictured below. It was a case for the Galaxy Nexus so it didn't really fit all that well. Don't get me wrong the case was well designed but the dimensions were just short of fitting the LTEvo. The LTEvo was hanging out of the case. If they make one specifically for the LTEvo, it would be worth investing in it.

If you don't mind my asking, what cases were the ones that were too big? Also do you think they'd fit the Evo with a silicone or TPU case on? Thanks!
Ditto to the above I like a gorm fitting holster but I never go out without a case. For work I use the Otterbox commuter with the seido active holster but for regular use, I use a thin TPU case. I have yet to find a holster that is thin and long enough to fit the phone with a TPU case.
Any suggestions?

I bought my dad a side clip holster from siedioonline and he was ecstatic with it.
Even I loved it, and I really dislike holsters in general.
