Bumper Cases - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Does anyone know if bumper cases exist for this phone. I have not been able to find one anywhere.

---

I'd like to know as well!!

---

I did a pretty extensive look on amazon before purchasing my case and I didn't see anything like a bumper case for the Evo.

---

Seems the only option is to buy a TPU case and cut the back out. =(

Go on eBay! I know for a fact they're on there, I looked right before i replied.

I have to ask, you "know for a fact" but you couldn't copy/paste a link to one? There are many TPU cases on ebay that some people call a bumper but it isn't a bumper if it has a back plate.

I haven't seen any, and I've spent a lot of time on ebay and Amazon. I would suggest the same as others have, and just remove the back from a TPU case. I've seen a few with white or black sides and a clear back. That's what I would buy, as I think those would be easier to remove the back and probably give you a cleaner finished product. I remember there were a few TPU cases for the Evo 3D where the back came out pretty easy, and didn't look messy. There were a couple thread about them back when the 3D was pretty new. You didn't even have to cut the back out of them, they would just pop out of you pressed really hard in the right places.

It says since i'm a new user I can't post links. All I did was go to ebay and search Hte evo 4g Lte bumper case and there is hundreds. But we may be talking about 2 different kinds of cases. If so, then sorry.

I just went to my ebay app and searched "Evo LTE bumper case". There was only 18 results. There were a few full silicone or tpu cases, but most were like I mentioned in my post above. White or Black silicone around the edges (like a bumper case), but they have a full clear back made of a hard plastic.
I saw no true bumper cases on ebay!

Two kinds of "bumper" cases
Evo 4g lte Since the phone isn't as square as the iPhone then the only way the case would work is to have a back on it. Which in my opinion looks horrid.
iPhone Since the phone is square the bumper can grip the phone and not fall off. Leading to it being able to be backless.

^^^Not true. A bumper case WOULD work on the Evo LTE, it's just that no one makes one for us. The Nexus 4 is shaped like the Evo LTE, and it has bumper cases...

Here's a picture of a case with a black border and white back. It was the first I came across, but I've also seen this case with a clear back as well. It's the first link in my post above.
What's odd is the auction says that it's clear, but it isn't. The white Evo LTE does NOT have black around the camera and flash, nor is there black around the kickstand AND the kickstand is silver and not red, like the pictured item is. So the case in the pictures definitely has a white back with a black Evo in it, not a clear back with a white Evo in it. I'm going to save the item to my watch list and ask the seller why the description doesn't match the pictures. I'll also see if he'll send me pictures of the white bordered case and the black bordered case, both with the clear back of course. I doubt there will be an Evo in the case, but that's fine. If the case looks decent in the pictures he sends me, then I'll definitely buy one just so I can share photos of it with everyone on here. I'll post pictures of it empty, with my white Evo in it, and with my black Evo in it. I think I'll buy the one with the white border though, just in case I do like the case and decide to use it occasionally. I think my white Evo will look better in the the white bordered case than it will in the one with the black border.

AndrasLOHF, I'm not seeing many options either (just picked one up yesterday).
The Otter Commuter was the best option at the Sprint Store and I passed on it.
Online, I'm now looking at the Diztronic Matte Back Black Flexible TPU Case for HTC Evo 4G LTE (Sprint) **Only For New 2012 LTE Model** [Diztronic Retail Packaging] - Amazon
I'm a NOOB (so I cannot post the link)
amazon. -- com/ -- gp/product/B00851NV6G/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2HOCXU5SC35JO
It seems the lesser evil (requiring less precision cutting).
I look forward to seeing if your desired solution ever gets manufactured.

Just found this on Amazon: GreatShield Guardian S Series Slim Fit S-Line Design TPU Case for HTC EVO 4G LTE (Black) $7.00
(I'm thinking I might like its lanyard solution for carrying this around ... uncertain if other cases for North America customers offer lanyard holes ...)

I had one on my Htc Evo 4G, I got it from Amazon. In the picture the back looked white like the one you posted. but when I got it it was like a fuzzy clear look. Idk how to describe it well, but I have some pics I took with the phone when I had it I can show you. The pictures arent too good but they were the only ones I could find. Now that ive seen this thread so much, I think I want one again. XD Cant wait to hear what the seller says. Or, (if you decide to get it) what it looks like!

---

^^Cool. Looks like a clear back just with a matte finish, which is what I'm expecting from the one I linked as well.
