Case for the EVO??

I have been looking around for accessories for the EVO, I preordered mine already, but want to have a case and screen protector on it.
I don't want to take a chance with this thing.
I came across this website which has many skins, and rubberized cases, but am hesitant to order, because I did a search on google, and on another android forum website everyone was giving them bad review, like poor communication, 3+weeks for the item to ship.
Plus they don't use paypal.
If anyone knows a reliable place selling cases please post a link or PM me, and here is the link for anyone who may want to order, also if you have ordered let me know how it went.
thanks

Go on the left and click HTC Evo 4g, then choose cases and all the available ones are their.

Yeah I have been looking myself. It scares me to not have this stuff before I pick my phone up..Normally when I open a new phone there is some kind of plastic already on the screen. Its usually not to pretty but I'll have no choice but to leave it on till I get a screen protector.
Since I don't really see myself slapping this baby on the side of my pants I am trying to find some type of gel body glove or something so I can still put it in my pocket and not add too much bulk.

I have found only that one so far..

Only problem with that snap on case (which doesn't sound TOO bad) is that it wouldn't ship out until June 21st, 17 days after the Evo comes out... That's 17 days worth of heavy phone usage to get through without a scratch!!!
Something I've always trusted is the InvisibleShield from ZAGG. I have had it on my ipod touch since day 1 and it's pretty good stuff...

OR Ghost Armor (which is pretty much the same thing) has it for $14.99 which is $10 cheaper than Zagg... I'm pretty sure that Ghost Armor is the stuff you can get at Best Buy now, at least for the stores in Phoenix...

ahh thanks for the heads up...those links you gave me do you know if they feel sticky? I hope that makes sense but since I am putting it in my front pocket I dont want it to keep getting caught on the inside of my pocket.

I am confused...those links you gave me are screen protectors?
I'm trying to find like a silicone case for the outside of the phone not the screen.

i hate cases, like my phone naked. going to be looking for a good cheap holster (?leather) for my belt. suggestions?

I like the ghost armor one

Apparently I am lost! Does anyone have any info on actual cases? People keep talking about freakin screen protectors! Am I in the wrong topic?

I've clear skinned my last 3 phones (Mogul, Touch Pro, Nexus 1). IMO, it's the best way to protect your phone and still have the "naked" look. Why add bulk and/or hide these beauties with a case? I've dropped each one of them atleast once without ever getting a scratch.
I personally feel a screen protector isnt needed. I got bubbles on the N1 screen protector due to poor installation on my part, so I removed it and haven't looked back since. These screens are very durable and hard to scratch if you use common sense.
The key to a good skin install is follow the instructions and take your time.

Yes, what we are talking about are protective skins. They are clear cases that go on your phone and protect it without adding all the bulk that comes with a big hard case

thank you for clarifying that..i honestly thought everyone was talking about screen protectors..

zagg's product is a screen protector AND has something that fits se seamlessly around the rest of your phone. It is sort of grippy (a little) so it doesn't slip into your pocket extremely easily, but they are nice -not great with a stylus though, b/c, like i said, a bit grippy.
this product was originally designed for military helicopters to cover their blade tips to prevent damage. pretty heavy duty stuff...you barely see it on there, but if you drop your phone, it primarily will keep it scratch free -spotless really. only problem is, it barely protects against impact like other bigger cases might. But its nearly impossible to scratch, nic or chip your phone.

2 things I'm looking for, and hopefully they do it right this time. A sedio front facing belt clip for the evo and an extended battery. what they've ****ed up in the past is making one not compat with the other....
I really want the extended battery experience while at the same time having it being able to snap into my belt like I'm someone god damn important =P
lol that's all I got.

Blurex slim case

Hey I just ordered the Blurex slim case off of amazon this past weekend and just received it yesterday. All I can say is this is exactly what I'he been waiting for. All ports/slots are accessible and very secure and slim fit. This is my second case. I originally bought the Targuss case and found it too bulky. Check it out you won't be disappointed. I would post a link, but because this is only my third posting, I am not allowed.

You mean this one I think: http://www.amazon.com/BLUREX-Leathe...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1311197031&sr=1-1
Looks to be exactly what I would want from a case, but can't find it anywhere in the EU region as always

Yes that's it. And I got it for $ 19.99 us currency. $25 shipped to my door.

Wow, they brought the price up already. I just got it for 33.00 out the door. It looks like what I have been looking for. In the review, besides the slimness, the reviewer mentioned folding the cover back and holding the Acer like a book. That was my only complaint over the roocase I have now. If this cover is what i hope it to be, I will be returning the roocase.

Is it available on ebay??

You can flip it vertically like a book.

So I like this case and proceeded to checkout and they tell me that the item won't ship to Canada !!
Bought stuff from there ( amazon.com ) before and shipped no problem...which tells me that this item might be ship from somewhere else with Canada being one of the restriction.

Just confirming that this is the one:
http://amzn.to/qsUhDq -- BLUREX Leather Slim folio Case With Multi-Angle Stand for ACER ICONIA TAB A500
And yes, it's just as amazing as described.
It feels really solid, looks gorgeous and very professional. It's exactly the type of case I was looking for.
The inside felt is very nice. All ports/mic/camera is accessible.
Please let me know if you'd like photos of anything specific on the case.

Sent from my XT720 using XDA App

As far as I can tell it does not ship outside of the U.S. Big shame because this looks like the best case so far =/

To the folks who have it, when you flip the cover all the way back to "hold it like a book" as the reviewer in Amazon states, it probably covers the speakers right? How well can you hear thru it when it is put in that position?
Thanks!

Can anyone from us buy one for me and then ship it to india??

Quick question. I got this case a couple of days ago. I really like how its shaped. It conforms to the curves of the tablet exactly. All the ports are accessible including the SD card port. I have two issues though and tell me if you agree. Since I saw the post and pictures of the guy who dropped his and got it smashed up, this case doesn't protect the corners very well from a drop if the case falls and lands on the corners. Also the tab that clips on to the tablet to close the case doesn't wrap around the bevel of the case completely. It keeps the case closed, but it looks like it barely is. Im wondering if this where loosen over time and use. Other than that, I really like the case. Especially the quality of build and how thin it is. Check out the pictures and you can see what I mean about the corners.

Place a thick foam band on the sides....stick it to one flap on the side so you have no problem opening it....

Just received this case today for my wifes tab. Overall it is a very nice case, with great build quality. It is thin, with a low profile unlike the Targus leather case sold at BB. My only complaint is that in order to position the screen into one of the viewing angles, the tab must be pushed out of the bottom tab holders. It's not a big deal, but I did find myself fumbling with it slightly.

I just got mine today and yes, holding it in that position would cover the speakers. If you can imagine holding a thick piece of leather over the speaker, that's how it would sound.
If that doesn't bother you then I highly recommend this case. I've owned the Acer one and I have a gtablet with a cover and this one is hands down better than those and others I have seen so far. The case is very snug. As a matter of fact I had difficulty putting it on as well as taking it off. I can't imagine mt tab ever falling out of it accidently even though the tabs that hold it in are so small.
It's also very slim profile. Doesn't add much bulk to the tablet. Also, if this is fake leather, they've done a pretty good job as I can't tell.

Check out my A500 case from Ebay (for European Buyers)-with pictures!

Hi
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150621849701#ht_2626wt_905
I just ordered one of these on ebay, and i am here to show some pics of it in order to help some people to clarify some doubts, like those i had before.
When i say it's for european buyers, it's because i got it from ebay from germany and so the costs are less expensive if you buy it from the states (i'm from Portugal)
The material looks very good, although it's not real leather. The stand function is very functional and very well designed. It adds a fair bit of bulk, but i can live with it (i prefer security over style)
The main reason for this choise are those clips that holds the tablet in place, and allows a nice view of the toy so well and shiny, better than the other cases with the labels that can easily come in front of your screen after some time of use.
You can use the case as a horizontal stand, and also hold it as a book...
When closed there is a elastic grip to keep the case closed and also necessary for the tablet not to slip away from the case. In fact this is the only fault i notest with this case, it has only 5 plastic clips on three sides of the case instead of all 4 sides, so the tablet slides into the case through the right side where there are no clips and it can slip away if you hold the case in vertical mode with this side down. Not an issue untill know, but it can be if the owner forgot this and dont use the elastic wrist to keep it safe...
So, i just have the case i was expecting and know i just feel saver with it carrying it around the house.
Now the pics:
P.S. If you have some questions please feel free to leave it here.

More pics...

this one looks really nice
Is there somewhere i can order it without having to pay with a paypal account

got one that looks similar on amazon. only difference is its got openings for the speakers and its cheaper for $30. i've posted pics of it on Amazon...can't post link here coz i'm new

I know this case.
On my review i didn´t mention but this case has 2 openings for speakers which are lifted when you put the tablet in the standing mode, when it is closed it´s protected from the dust...so i guess this is a better idea.

Looks just like my case from Amazon too! Got mine for like 15 shipped 2day. It works great except that the tabs get weak after time.

Cheaper here:http://www.dhgate.com/pv-ff80808130e5a14a013107977c782391.html
But i'd like to get a slim-fit case,Just like a clip.

what is this?
what is this?

Is the google bumper worth the £16?

Is it worth the £16 in the uk? looks like just a bit of plastic to me, or is it more?
what cases do you guys recommend, i loved the casemate i had on my s2 had shockproof without to thick + had indents so phone screen didnt touch the table ect

To be honest? Not at all. But its a luxury item I suppose. If you got the extra cash, then its a good buy.
Sent from my Nexus 4

I have the official bumper on my N4 and it's quite nice. Buttons are nice and clicky and ports are all easily accessible. It's just a piece of rubber(?) with silver-colored plastic around the border, I think, but it's very attractive in design and fits the phone perfectly. Just be careful when you're putting it on if your N4 has front and back screen protectors. It has a habit of lifting the corners of my screen protector if I'm not paying attention while putting it on. It's a very minimalist case, obviously, but it's just thick enough to keep the screen/camera lens from touching anything, should you rest the phone on a flat surface.
I haven't dropped my phone to know whether it will keep it safe or not, but it's probably on part with any other slim/minimalist case.

It's more like £22 after you include postage.
I wouldn't mind so much but I didn't like the bumper at all. It made the phone too big and uncomfortable to hold.

Its cheaper and its an exact replica it also has free shipping.

I personally didn't like the bumper. It's a very nice looking bumper but I hated the bulky feel of it. If it was much slimer it would have been my favorite case.

I've some bad news for you about the poetic bumper. It will come apart at the seems within a month. The glue between the rubber and the plastic began to separate after a week of handling. After 3 it was completely loose 90 percent of the way around. That's what you get for saving a little money.

You get a free replacement. Jesus.. people making a big deal out of nothing.
They send u free replacement, no questions asked. The company is at a loss replacing bumpers. Give them some respect for at least trying to make it right by having good customer support.

IMO, nothing special
I ordered one of the bumper cases and got it way back in December, and personally I didn't think it was anything special (in fact, I vastly preferred the feel of the phone without it, as the bumper rises slightly above the edge of the screen so you can no longer feel the angled glass around the sides of the phone).
So I auctioned it on eBay and someone bought it for just over £50, so I can't exactly complain

Wow! Do you not know how to read? It was stated that the new ones are improved/revised. It's a simple adhesive issue, I emailed the seller and he replied that all the units being shipped are the new ones without any issues
You're acting as if a bad transmission was designed for a new car and there are already thousands and thousands sold. It's not rocket science to fix the adhesive issue.
And for me, it's not about saving "a few dollars", I'd prefer the Google one accept I recently moved to Canada and my American credit cards don't work with buying anything at the Canadian Play Store (other than apps). My gf ordered the N4 for me as my birthday gift. As it's already a very pricey gift, I didn't want her spending any more so I told her not to buy the bumper.

the bumper doesn't make the phone much thicker. That isn't the issue. The issue is how wide the phone feels with the bumper on. It definitely is not a slim bumper in comparison to poetic's.

That's why it's called a bumper, bumper is for bumping meaning protection on impact. The thicker the better the protection, the slimmer the lesser of protection, simple like that, so stop whining and complaining if you do not understand the meaning of the words. Plus people with bigger hands will feel it comfortable and ppl with small hands most probably wouldn't like it, but that's all personal, as far as quality is concern that's the best offer on the market today regarding BUMPERS.

There's a post in the other thread that the so called "solution" did not always fix the problem, and frankly I find it hard to believe it's just about the glue. There's just not enough contact area between the rubber and the hard plastic. It's a design issue.
As for the free replacement. it's still annoying having to get one in the first place. Don't they test drive their own products?

Exactly like you said, everyone has different opinion upon the thickness of the bumper. We are all just chipping in our own views.

Skinomi TechSkin (screen protector) owners, - a question for you

So I'm interested in this screen protector, as it offers edge to edge protection along with some other features I like:
amazon.com/Skinomi-TechSkin-Protector-Lifetime-Warranty/dp/B009W6C3YO/ref=cm_cmu_pg__header - sorry cant link yet due to post requirements.
However, as I'm in the UK its not available to me. I've searched everywhere for it, they just dont sell it here at-all.
In desperation I turned to a friend who lives in the US, and asked him if he could order it to him first, then ship it to me.
So, my question to you Skinomi owners:
What are the dimensions of the box the screen protector comes in? I know the shipping weight (3.8 oz), but the dimensions are no-where to be found on the web. I've looked on the USPS website for shipping rates to the UK, and if it can fit in a "large" envelope and weighs 3.8 oz, then I'm only paying $4 for shipping, which is good. But if it cant, I'm looking at $70+ just for shipping :S
Description of the large envelope:
Other than rolls: Max. length 24", max length, height and depth (thickness) combined 36"
Rolls: Max. length 36". Max length and twice the diameter combined 42"
Help please?
Edit, for mods;
The question when posting this thread was "Is this a question?"
Though this is a question, its not directly linked to a Q&A of a nexus 4, thus not wanting to be posting a accessories question in the nexus Q&A, I posted here. Sorry if I'm wrong, feel free to move the thread as you wish mods. :good:

I've still got my box, even though I don't use the Skinomi anymore (ended up with a Spigen). Here you go.
4 3/8" x 7 1/8" x 1"
Approximately.

Why you don't order this from eBay or directly from Skinomi website??

I just got it from eBay, thanks for the idea - its still shipping from the US but I only paid $9 for postage with an estimate of 12 days :good:

I bought a tech skin for my phone and tablet from amazon.com. you can have an account with a UK address. It was cheaper from skinomi on Amazon than through there own site. Also only took around 4 days to arrive. I think in total it was $20 or so delivered to the UK.

I have one on the way. I'm excited to get it and be able to protect my screen. I hope it is as good as they say.

I got mine 5 days ago from CA (I'm in the UK), the protector does feel good (not too rubbery), though it doesn't have a high quality finish as MediaDevil has, plus it does peal with my BALLISTIC case, I did get around this with six 1mm sellotape rectangles, their barley visible, and they keep the protector from pealing on the edges. Overall an alright product, I definitely overpaid, but with lifetime warranty, I might make a clam soon.

I used Skinomi on my HTC Sensation before I discovered Best Skins Ever, BSE are much better - they're much less resistive to touch (feel almost like glass) and they do a case optimised version which leaves a small gap around the edges so cases/bumpers won't lift the protector, or a full version which fits to the edges.
I do like the packaging of Skinomi and the premium cloth and squeegee it comes with though.

Mines come tomorrow and I'll leave a comment on its quality, etc.
I hope my seidio case comes too.

Pros: Self-healing that actually works..
Cons: Everything else.
Think I might just go with "Just like glass"

Mine came in today but I'm waiting to install it till tomorrow night. Gotta work tomorrow

So I installed it and it's okay. I'm keeping it because I paid fifteen bucks for it and I don't want to run rawdog without one. I have never liked screen protectors. My gnex had one on it when I bought it and I couldn't stand it. I ended up removing it. It was a zagg I think.
I think I'll buy one of the tempered ones soon.
Just not all that impressed.

You should check out "Just like glass" I'm considering ordering from them. They look amazing.
Well after my Skinomi needs replacing that is... Seems like never, it just keeps healing itself. Heh

They sent me an extra for doing a review on Amazon. Pretty good of them.

Keep your fingers wet. Do it in a hot steamy bathroom to minimize dust.
Follow the included instructions.

I've got one of these. Imo, they are easier to apply than other dry application screen protectors I've purchased in the past. And come with a neat microfiber cloth. I also enjoy the textured protector for the back of the device. It came with pieces to cover the sides, top, and bottom too but those weren't so simple to make use of unfortunately.

Wow thanks, that's a great idea. I'll be utilizing that when I replace the one I've got on there now.

Just get a BSE, they're cheaper, better and deliver to the UK. Trust me, I've tried pretty much every wet apply screen protector there is over the past couple of years

This screen protector is a total pos! It is constantly peeling off. & stretching
Back side does not stay sticky
Also every where my case is touching it. It had faded to a matte finish.
I would try to get some pics later today.
I think I will stick with Zagg.
