I'm in the market for a new case since the $3 one I bought on Ebay is starting to peel finish. I'm looking for the thinnest, slickest case out there.
What case are you using?
Do you like it?
How much was it?
Where did you buy it?
Pictures?
THX!
well i would like to know this as well.
However i can enlighten you on how horrible the body glove case from sprint is. it looked great and was loving the feel until after a week, pulled it out of my pocket to find the case was broke where the volume rocker is. needless to say it looked and felt good but all in all i do NOT recommend it to anyone.

Mine did exactly the same thing, lasted about two weeks.
Funny, I ordered one of the $3.00 ones off of Ebay to replace it.
Actually I got mine on Amazon... forgot. This is the case I bought and while it is pretty thin and fits well, the paint job is totally shotty and now looks horrible:

I bought the white and chrome case from Sprint when I got the phone. I have had my phone since the release day for the EVO and the case still looks brand new. I really like the leather feel, and the chrome accents add to the overall beauty of the phone. I would recommend the case to anyone!
A guy I work with bought this one on Ebay about 2 weeks ago and says he's still happy with it:

Case-Mate Tough Case. Purchased from the Case Mate website it just became available. Been using this case on my iPhone 4G and I love it, best case out there for protection.

That Seido case looks bulky no? I'm looking for something that doesn't add to the already large footprint of this thing in my pocket.
How about the Otterbox cases.. anyone have experience with them on other devices (not out yet for the evo)

My buddy has a well-worn one on his iPhone that has been through hell and still looks good.

i have the body glove universal holder from radio shack which works for me. however, i am looking at getting the Seidio Innocase holster case combo... which is a steal on amazon as the case itself is $30 at sprint and the combo is $30 on amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-Innoca..._1_4?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1282702286&sr=8-4
i already tried the case and its nice and fits inside the body glove holder too, snuggley like pigs in a blanket at ihop.
Shouldn't this be in the Accessories forum?
(Black TPU case FTW.)
Yep... should be in accessories thread... my bad.
Are the otterbox cases thin though... I'm really looking for the thinnest case out there.
I always just wait for some YouTube reviews to pop up, shows me are how big the case is in real life. (Or as real as I care to get.)

Looking at the impact series case it doesn't look to be too bad. I really like the looks of the bottom two cases, so I signed up to be notified when they come out. I had the Sprint Body Glove case, had since release actually, but the volume rocker area just cracked last week. Lasted longer then most I suppose.
I've got the Seidio Innocase holder IceCreaMan linked to and it has been nice. It's got a nice texture, doesn't slide easily, isn't bulky, has a belt clip, and with the case on, it makes it so the camera doesn't stick out. It doesn't cover anything either so you still have your speakers, cameras, microphones, plugs, etc. Would definitely recommend it.
the Innocase II is a proven design in my opinion
its thin, and can take a drop (ive dropped mine from 8ft + onto concrete without any cracks in the case/damage to the phone)
I got a couple cheap cases from ebay; they're the clamshell design that has a front & back the snap together. They all felt too big and bulky though, so I got a Talon to replace 'em. Love it. Just snaps onto the back of the phone and protects the corners from drops and the camera from scratches when laying the phone on it's back. I have an InvisibleShield on the front to protect the touch screen from scratches.
The talon is almost like not having a case at all -- doesn't add much bulk to the phone.
And it's only 10 bucks.
Got my case today, I was a little worried because two days after I purchased it Ebay pulled all of the sellers listings and sent me a notice saying I could file a claim to get my money back. Since the seller had good feedback, and he had notified me that it had been shipped (from China), I decided to wait and see if it would show up, which it did.
I really like it, much better fit and quality than the Sprint body glove I had on my phone before. Time will tell if it lasts, but I have to say for $3.00, I am pretty impressed. It has a soft feel that gives a more secure feeling grip than the body glove, plus it is slightly thinner, but still protects the camera lens. Plus it is red, love the color.
Wish I could give a link to the one I got, the seller has put some of his cases back up, but no Evo cases yet.
Here is a link to a red rubberized hard case that looks very similar to the one I got.
Okay so I just need to iron out a few details, so if someone could help me that'd be great. The thing is, I live in India and my friend is going to the US and I'm asking him to pick up the phone for me from my cousin's house. But he's quite... dumb, so I want to clear out as much as I can from here.
1 - How long does RMA take these days? I know it used to take a few weeks when the demand was much higher but now I don't really know.
2 - Suppose my cousin's not at home when the delivery guy comes, will he have to contact the company to get the guy to come deliver it again?
3 - I'm going to ask my cousin to use the phone for a few days to check out if it's perfectly fine. What should I ask him to look out for?
Accessory questions :
1 - I'm thinking of using XtremeGuard full body protector + Diztronic black matte TPU case. Do these go well? Are there any better alternatives in this price range? My main priority is protection, aesthetics are secondary. I drop my phone a lot!
2 - I also want cheap, cheap ear buds. Are these my best bet? http://www.amazon.com/Maxell-190336-Crystal-Buds-Black/dp/B0027P9BN8/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
Thanks!
1) There is no way to know how long it will take. It ships when it ships. It's any ones guess...
2) When it does ship, your account will receive an email from Google with a UPS tracking URL. Expect it will take 2 days, but check the URL each day, and when it's states it's "out for delivery", they will come between 09:00 and 18:00 local time. Here in NYC, they ring the bell once and only give you 15 seconds to get to them, then leave. They will try once more the next day, then it's off for an adventure to the UPS warehouse to hunt down the package.
3) Lots of existing threads on the common complaints (defects) users have had.

I almost bought the Diztronic but chose the ArmorBox instead. Very happy I did.
The ArmorBox fits perfectly, gives me a good grip on the phone, has a kickstand for watching videos, and most importantly........... protects the phone well.
It's only has 3 stars on Amazon because the early models didn't fit properly. Recent reviews are very positive.

I've checked it out. Do you really like it? I'm sorry but it looks quite ugly :/
Diztronic fits perfectly as well. Don't need the kickstand.
I wish there were youtube videos about drop tests performed with different cases. Link me if there are any, I can't find them.
I use a Diztronic case and it fits well and I like the feel of it. However Acase came out with a case for the N4 which I just ordered as I have one on my galaxy S3 and love it. It is dual layer case so better protection, here is the link to it http://www.ebay.com/itm/Acase-Super...412085?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4852c6e635

Whoa! I like that case! Looks just as good as the Diztronic, plus provides dual layer protection. (I'm not sure whether dual layer is better than just a single layer of TPU, though) The reviews seem fantastic as well. This has just jumped up my preferred list.
Thanks! BTW, which screen protector are you using on your S3? Is the case peeling it off?

I don't think anybody does drop test videos with cases.
As for the ArmorBox being ugly, that's a matter of opinion.
Every other case has reviews complaining about slickness but not the ArmorBox. To each their own.
Edit: just reread the Acase reviews at amazon. Even buyers who give it 5 stars mention it's slippery.
Good luck with that.

Yup I guess it is a matter of opinion about the looks.
And yeah, I was sad that Acase is slippery. So what I was thinking was that since it's a dual layer case (where the hard case covers the tpu) I'll remove the outer layer (the hard case) when I'm setting it on an uneven surface. I think it might not slip if the tpu is in contact with the surface.
Thanks for your reply!
Received my Boost Mobile Sharp Aquos Crystal on October 16, 2014 and after a few hours of tinkering,
started shopping for the usual case / holster with belt clip and clear screen protectors. Here are what
I ordered on eBay for my new smartphone . I will promptly post reviews of each upon receipt:
Case / Holster $5.99 <Received 10/20/2014. stitching quality is decent but case is so tight, can hardly get phone in/out & zero padding inside case. Seller admitted size error, refunded.
Next, I ordered this case for $5.99 < This seller DID NOT send me the case as pictures in their eBay listing. They sent me a case that is too small for this phone AND has cutouts that would allow the corners of the phone to be damaged if dropped. Package label says case is for a Samsung phone, not this Sharp phone. I contacted seller, no response in past 24 hours. Ordered from a 2nd ebay seller with same results. My search for a GOOD case/holster continued.
NOVEMBER 6, 2014 UPDATE: Finally found a case/holster that IS THE CORRECT SIZE AND protects the ENTIRE Sharp Aquos Crystal: $7.95 case / holster.
Screen Protectors (pack of 6) for $1.99 < Received in 4 days & perfect fit for this phone. Note: Pull back Tab #2 slightly BEFORE applying to phone or you might not be able to remove it after you iron out the bubbles.
Both prices including free delivery in USA.

This phone wants you to rock it naked. I've been wanting to port a stock nexus 4 rom for this phone but I want to keep some of Sharps features.
Thx for the recommendation on the screen protector. Just ordered one for $2.49

Skinomi
Another option if you like the nakedness of the Crystal is TechSkin from Skinomi. I just got mine yesterday and its very eye-catching. Its an adhesive phone skin and screen protector(I got the black carbon fiber). When shopping for it, I was a little apprehensive that it would look cheesy, but its way better than I hoped for. The way its cut comes right up to the chrome and makes it stand out. Its textured too, so its not just some cheap sticker. The good thing about it is you can still use a case. I didn't use the screen protector though; I don't know, my phone just want to show all its glassy glory. I got mine on Amazon for around $12. They also have woods and brushed metals.

Sure!
That actually looks terrific! I saw that and the other stick-on cases on Amazon you mentioned, but gave no second-thought since the manufacturer pictures looked chintzy and not worth it.
You know, that's what I thought too. But once I got it on, my son walked by on his way to the kitchen and was like "Wow." That's a lot coming from a 19 year old. The quality is way higher than I expected, a real high-end look and feel.
Late as this post is, anyone try the snap-on cases? I bought this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OOGDRVK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Clear-Ice brand carbon-fiber snap-on case, sort of like a bumper case on the iPhone 5S. I do like the idea of the sticker thing, but it doesn't appeal to me, personally. I want the device more sealed in.
I'm getting my phone and case on the 10th, so I'll see then. I'm just curious if there's been more exploration than these stickers, or adding a tertiary pocket for your phone.

Phone pops out way too easily in the snap on cases. IMO. I got a dual layer hybrid for mine and am pretty happy with it.

Actually, I got my phone and the case and am impressed by it. It snaps on with some click, it holds well, and it fits the nature of a bumper case quite well. My real complain stems from it not being an actual carbon fiber cover. It's just this gloss shell with a bunch of black squares gridlocked together to imitate carbon fiber in appearance and nothing more. It's actually more slippery than the naked phone. It protects it, I'll admit. The snaps over the edges actually protrude that little bit out from the screen, giving it the most subtle protection from surfaces.
Disappointingly, I ruined the screen protector in the process. I'll probably either buy a set or look up how to clean one and apply them properly.

Screen Protector
I picked up one of the hdx Zagg screen protectors over the holidays on sale and also got one from a family member as a Christmas present.
I will sell the extra at a cheaper price than what you normally could, if anyone's interested message me for info.
So not to post the same link again, it is located on the first page in one of my posts in this thread.
Has any one found a bumper case for the yotphone 2 yet
some retailers including yota are providing them free with handset
yota customer services wont stipulate where from but just keep watching for any news. internet search doesnt show any one yet providing them . would be usefull!!!!
I got mine as part of a promotion for orders during most of January. As you say, some retailers are selling them along with the handset. Have you tried asking the facebook page? They seem pretty good with answering questions.
sorry but no face book or any other social network member, guess i will have to wait for yota or someone to enlighten me
Fair enough. Sorry then dude, hope they start being sold separately eventually for you.
Just thought would mention that the bumper is for sale on the yota website now. It may have been a while but just a heads up for those still looking for one.

Has anyone bought the aluminium bumper case?

I Bought an aluminium one on eBay. Short review and some pics:
- fit is OK, no slack
- finish looks OK, mine is matte black
- protrudes a bit to the front and the back (so the device does not lie on the glass when put down on a perfectly flat surface)
- edges are quite sharp, might leave marks on the case in due time. bumper has some soft tape on the inside, but that doesn't cover the sharp edges. The hole in the bottom for USB and microphone has these sharp edges too, not comfortable as I usually support the phone with my pinky there.
- adds about 2mm in width and 3mm in length to the phone. (7.2 x 14.8 cm with bumper, 7 x 14.5 cm without). Not too bad, but you can feel the difference initially.
- buttons can be operated OK, although power button does not stick out that much.
- small clasp in the corner
All in all not bad for a couple of dollars. I don't own the bumper as sold by Yota Devices, so I can't compare it.
Hopefully it will absorb some impact when falling on the floor too, but I will leave that part to someone else to review.
edit 1: some additions after 2 weeks of use:
- There seems to be some impact on reception. In an area with low signal strength, the bumper seems to cause the connection to become unstable/drop. Removing the bumper restores the connection. In good reception areas it's harder to note the impact.
- The sharp edges at the bottom are annoying me, I'll have to smooth them out, or lose the bumper.
- No scratches (yet) on the phone though from the bumper
edit 2: Don't know how I missed this earlier, but GPS reception is heavily impacted by this bumper
I went for a run yesterday, and my Endomondo app could not get a good lock. The map only showed approximate location, but it wouldn't start recording my run based on that. After 15 minutes still no lock, until I thought of the bumper. Removed it, and got a solid lock after 3 seconds...

I've only received it today, so can't comment on long-term use, but the sharp edges are on the inside as well. The little review above is mainly positive in the price/value department, the Yota Devices bumper might be higher quality.

I have a bumper case which came with the device but I don't know if it's from yotaphone. The bumper feels like silicone to me may be it's gel. I prefer gel cases. It feels flimsy.
I have the rubber bumper from yota itself, nice thing.
happy with it for 15usd
Yota Bumper
My "official" Yota Phone bumper arrived, here's a short review:
Material:
Not sure what the material is called, but it's like a matte rubber, but less flexible than rubber, thougher. It's somewhat grippy, but not too much. Doesn't feel like gel or silicone to me.
Dimensions:
It adds 2 mm in width, and 3 mm in length to the phone (just like the aluminium one). It fits nicely, altough the sides are slightly 'floppy', you can stretch it away from the phone easily. I can imagine that only getting slighty worse, not better over time.
features:
The bumper does not have 'real' plastic or metal buttons, buttons are just molded into the rubber. The back side has a thicker rim than the front.
Comparison with the aluminium one:
I have to say the cheap aluminium case looks slightly more classy to me, a bit more svelte, with nice paint & real buttons. It does have a small buckle, which some may find distracting.
The rubbery Yota one looks a bit more ordinary, less luxurious, to my taste. However the aluminium one does have practical drawbacks: sharp edges (especially annoying on the bottom opening), impact on reception (both mobile and particularly GPS, see below), and it might scratch the device at some time, although I haven't seen that in a few weeks of use.
The metal one takes a bit more care to put on, to prevent scratches, the rubber Yota one slips on in a second.
BTW: I updated the aluminium bumper review to mention poor GPS reception

Agreed, This looks like the bumper you can get from the Russian yotaphone store... they even do it in different colours
http://yotaphone.com/ru-en/store/#bumper
Does anyone know how to obtain the official yota bumper if one does not live in the UK or Russia (I am in Canada)? I have contacted the UK yota store but they will not ship outside of the UK. I cannot find it anywhere else with the usual online dealers (clove, expansys, ...). Thanks.

It's sold in other countries too (I purchased mine from the French Yotaphone website), but this will be of limited benefit to you until they add Canada/USA to the list... (on a side note, anyone knows when the North America Indigogo campaign ends, and when the phone will be officially launched there?)
If you want, I have a trip planned to Canada in late August, I can certainly purchase one and either hand it to you if you live close to Montreal, or post it from there using local post services if you're too far away (Canada is definitely a biiig country).
Let me know if you're interested.
here is the link: http://slickdeals.net/f/7826583-spi...-nexus-6-note-4-from-3-amp-more-free-shipping
looks like a great deal
Your link is a middleman that says "from $3", but then you get to Amazon and nothing is $3.. more like $20
To early to buy a case, need time to let other makers get them going so there are more choices.
You enter the discount code for the corresponding case in the promo code/gift card field in Amazon's checkout. I bought the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case from Spigen direct (Ships from and sold by Spigen Inc.) for $2.80 last night and got the shipping confirmation and tracking number today. Like I'm going to play wait-and-see with $2.80.
You need to enter the promo code for the corresponding item to get the promotional price. I bought 2 cases for about $5. spigen is a legit case company,better than your average obscure Chinese random case maker, you can't beat this deal, especially for a brand new/unreleased phone
I bought a cause for $3 shipped yesterday, even if I end up not buying the phone you can't pass up a deal like that!
you can throw in a 3 months of spotify for $1 total too: https://www.spotify.com/us/premium/
Damn, the deal expired. Still, those cases look pretty good. Even for 11-15 bucks I might end up checking that brand out. At least my screen protector came today. From the looks of it FedEx seems to be delivering the phone tomorrow even though ATT said it would be delivered Friday. Can't wait to play with the new toy!
I got the Spigen Slim Armor case. After using it for 2 days, I'm very impressed. It looks great and feels high quality. Definitely seems like plenty of protection from drops. The fit is perfect, and all of the ports are cleanly cut, smooth, and exactly where they should be. $23.98 shipped. Midrange cost, but well worth the money IMO.

I noticed some of their cases on the spigen website state that they dont fit with the leather back but it didnt say anything on the Slim Armor page, so I figued it did fit. I've always bought Spigen Slim Armor, I love them. And I like that this one has a kickstand.
I've always been happy with Spigen cases. I started with the S4, then the G2, G3, and soon to have one for the G4. Not sure which I will buy for the G4. For the G3, I purchased 3 different cases, all from Spigen: the clear bumper, the very thin case that added no bulk, but no real protection, and the slim armor. The slim armor has been my favorite over the various phones I've had. I like the two-tone color scheme with white and black.
These are way old. Wait another month. Spigen has these deals on Amazon all the time.
How are these cases? I've seen this name thrown around a lot over the last couple years. I always bought PureGear's Dualtek (as it's hardcore drop resistant since I drop my phone a lot) but they've been beginning to get too bulky for me as phones I'm buying are getting bigger. Is this case worth buying?
