I just bought a new case today and thought I would share it with everyone
Its called Platinum (Protetective Smartcase Holster)
It DOES NOT cover up the top mic,front facing side doesnt stick out like other cases (the number one thing i hate about my ballistics case from ATT) so when you need to touch the edge of the screen for what ever reason the case doesnt get in the way.
Its very nice to hold, and light, its thin and all around i think a good case, it no otterbox or ballistics case when it comes to protection, im fairly certain if i drop my phone in this case it can still incur damages, but if its a short fall it will hold up.
i think it makes it a little easier holding the phone with one hand as well.
but here are some pictures and if anyone has any questions feel free to ask
i bought it from bestbuy and its priced at $34.99 but i was lucky and got it for $24.99 because it was an "open item" so ask and see if they have one opened before buying full price

Case
That doesn't look too bad. I bought some Rocketfish branded POS from Best Buy, and I had to take it back immediately because it fit so poorly. How solid are the materials on this case?
pretty good, it doesnt feel cheap when holding or looking at it. theres a felt lining to keep the phone from scratching and its two pieces so it wont stretch out after trying to fit your phone in and out of it. its a nice case, like i said its not an otterbox or other "elite" case but i love it
Bought this case today while I was in best buy based on the info here. I'm very picky about my cases. I want thin and light but decent protection. This case is perfect. My case search is over (I've tried about a dozen now). I don't like buying online because I like to see the case before I buy it. Highly recommend this case.

The case fits well, but the belt clip is crap
I had the bet clip explode on me with very little sideways force.
Too bad since I like this case otherwise

i havent had a problem with the beltclip, ive used it for a few days now and i have a physical job. ive brushed it up against things and nothing. maybe it was just defective or hit your case in just the right spot?
just bought case yesterday
i just bought this case yesterday from best buy and i love it so far. the ballistic case would have been cool if it had a holster to go with it. this case adds very little bulk to the phone and feels great. ive used a seidio case with my nexus s and i never had a problem with it. they sell u a combo deal with a zagg screen proctector on it for $45. you can register the zagg sheild and you phone online so if anything happens to your screen they replace or fix the phone. i wish i would have known about the open case i prob would have asked for one to get it cheaper.
Just so you know, this case is the Seidio Surface case (seidioonline.com) rebranded for Best(?) Buy.
They also have other color options and a two-layer case on their site.
I like the case, however there is a very small gap between where it joins where you can see the silver rim. On top of this, the bottom plate is slightly wider than the top one so there's a small snag whenever you glide your finger down the edge.
If you're not needing the holster, I recommend buying it online as you can save $10 or so (assuming you don't buy it directly from Seidio)

No it isn't, same type of case but not made my seido. The seido cases are a tad thinner and of higher quality. I have owned both and prefer the seido, however Best Buy has a fantastic warranty so if you have issues they will resolve it promptly.
Just got this case yesterday and I'm having a hard time removing it. Is there a special trick to get this case off? Or is it just me. I tried what the instructions said, but it won't come off.

God those are ugly. Why would one go out of ones way to buy a beautiful device and the stick that on it?
what would you guys recommend as a decent protective yet slimline case for this device, preferably allow you to use the device whilst it's in the case. I've ordered the D2 but am deciding on what case to get

Invisishield
Wouldn't invisishield still require a case? It looks like the screen would still be very susceptible to dings, etc. that would kill the handwriting recognition.
I ended up ordering this:
http://www.blueunplugged.com/p.aspx?p=138216
and one of the silicone skins above. Got the leather case on me now. Pretty nice and a tight fit. Right side of it covers the end call button a bit but other than that it's all right. Would prefer if the leather was a bit thinner on the screen as it feels like it's recessed now. Regardless of that though I can still hit everything I want to on the screen so that's fine. The flip lid is hard and solid (must have thick card or something in it) so the screen is protected easily when it's shut. Also comes with space for memory cards and other plastic cards. Supplied with a removable screw on belt clip too! Doesn't add much bulk or weight to the phone and slips in nicely into my jeans pockets.
The best silicon cases are made by Capdase. I got my case for my HD a month ago. I checked, they don't have any yet but I am sure it will be available soon. What I will do is get a cheap replacement for now and wait for Capdase to come out with one. The one I have is non slippary and dust proof and and and it slips into my pocket nicely. Other silicon cases sticks to cloths and it's hard to get out of your pocket. It's not cheap, mine cost around $80 HKD which is around 6.50 GBP or 8 Euros. Hope this helps.

Nope.. I had one protecting my Diamond for 7 months... didnt effect ANYTHING. I dropped it a few times as well.
The IS is indeed very good
I have only seen it on a number if iPhones but it is as strong as they claim
We even tried the compass/knife test and scratched the hell out of it...or so we thought
It's very durable and did not damage the phone at all - Only downside is by the time it comes out (unless it is already), we'll all probably have a few light markings on it - no matter how well we keep it.
Something to note is the TD1 had a horrible procedure to apply it because of its curves/or lack of them ... I feel the TD2 will be much easier but lets see
Received my silicone case from xell_uk today ordered on the 30th April. Have to say it's a lot better than I thought it would be! Fits the D2 perfectly. Nice sized cut outs so you can easily access the ports and stylus and is snug and secure. Buttons are slightly more accessable as well compared to the other leather case I ordered. Device does look quite neat in this jacket too!

I've ordered my IS. Should arrive in a few days. http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield...es-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php
I don't get it. Isn't the screen the most important part of the device? Why protect the back and sides only?
Can someone recommend a solution to this?
FYI all: I got the silicone case, and it DOESN'T fit perfectly around the device. On the left the case is a bit loose, so you can see the device peeking... this can be seen in pictures of the silicone casing everywhere. So be aware...
OtterBox Commuter Review
Just got my OtterBox today, so thought I'd toss out some thoughts for those of you on the fence.
Those of you that aren't familiar with the OtterBox cases check out some info here OtterBox Case Series
Fit: This thing fits so effin nicely! I've tried the Commuter series on a few devices...and this seems to fit more snug than on other phones. The 3D Commuter I had seemed to bunch up ever so slightly. Same with Dell Streak and Evo 4G versions. My Galaxy S phone was pretty snug as well. Seems like they got this one right...cut-out for the mic doesn't look like it'll get blocked over time if the rubber gets loose.
Button overlays: They stick out a bit...which is the norm for Otters. I find them to be pretty handy. The power button especially, as most would agree without a case it can be a bit of a pain to press. Nice that I can stop myself from filing a fingernail on the volume rocker too. Much easier to press than the few other cases I've tried as well.
Dust Flaps: Tight and secure...without being annoying. Easy to open...plenty of room to plug in your cables. Not too stiff. Seems like they'll hold up for awhile. I've had some others that have fallen off way too early in the case life. Noticed the flap over the HDMI / USB ports DOES make the phone wobble a bit when using kickstand. Not a big deal...but might be an issue for some.
Cut-Outs: My only complaint here is with the kickstand cut out...seems a bit too snug. Seems to get caught a tiny bit on the rubber around it as you try to extend the kickstand. Pretty sure it'll straigthen itself out over time tho. Camera cut-out is nuttin special...just a rectangle around the lens and flash. Has cut-outs for the noise cancelling mics on the back as well.
Appearance: LOVE how it doesn't take away from the MoPho's unique look. I've gotten compliments on my phone for how slick it looks with the cut off corners. Yea.it's the little things that count. This isn't a case that hides the look of your phone...it accents the goodness!
General Feel: Not too slick....not too grippy. Slides in and out of pockets just fine. Definitely doesn't feel like I'll drop it. Always a good thing in my book. **Edit: After several hours of use, I've noticed the edges are kinda sharp. The hard plastic, when held in certain spots, can be agitating to your skin with it's sharp plastic.
So...in conclusion: I think this is the case I'll stay with for awhile. I've always enjoyed the protection afforded by OtterBox cases...and this should be no different.
Be aware, unless you rip out the insert on the HDMI dock it won't fit. You will have to remove the case for dock use.

I just ordered one from amazon after reading this. This would be perfect if they would have made a clip for it like the defender. I tried the defender at RS but it was just too much, this seems to keep the bulk down but still give that otterbox protection.

No...comes with a screen protector you can apply tho. Doesn't cover the capacitive buttons tho.

update: oh they went out of stock quick i guess, i was able to snag one though....
newegg's price is good, but thats about how much theyre going for online. retail stores would rip you off, but online price seems to be around the 22-25 dollar range.
lowest amazon price is 22.93 with free shipping from a 3rd party seller.
I bought mine for about the same price from a 3rd party seller on amazon and received it in 2 days (mainly cuz he was in the same state).
i got mine for 19.99 free shipping on amazon. love the case, felt so scared holdin it before.
I managed to get the Commuter to fit the car dock with minimal modification.
1- The rubber plug over the USB ports has to go.
2- Remove the ~1" bar over the USB ports from the outer shell. This part is indicated in green in the photo.
3- Shove the whole thing into the navi dock. Still tight, but it works.
Just copped ($22 on Amazon w/free shipping.) Propz - good review
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
http://store.androidcentral.com/htc-tatami-hard-shell-case/4A123A8759.htm
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.
Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. This case is awesome. I first wanted one when I got my Skullcandy case for my iPod touch and have been waiting for one built for an Android phone since. I like the case because it doesnt fall apart like other hard cases when its dropped. It slides together with the small black bottom piece and stays together. I found it pretty cheap on eBay and would highly recommend it. Matches the phone colors perfect with the deep red.

Nice! Thanks for the heads up. How difficult is the case to get off incase you need to do a battery pull?
just ordered one in red. i was stuck between the commuter case and this icon case. for 8 bucks shipped. why not?! thanks
Pretty easy. It fits snug because of the felt lining inside the case but it's easier than one of those hard jelly cases
Cool, thanks!

Hey fellas. My case came in yesterday! this case surpassed my expectations. The red color is more of a dark metallic color and actually looks pretty beastly. All my prior phones (blackberries, voyager, incredible, DROID x, thunderbolt, gnex have had black cases but I really have to say that the color on this case is the shnit. I love the soft rubber feel and like the nice lip around the screen. Thin enough to keep the phone thin but thick enough to keep the phone safe in case of drops to the face. The interior has a quality feel (soft velour) to it and the phones fits snugly in the case. The case is also easy to connect together and remove for easy battery swaps. I have a otterbox commuter case coming in as well but I think I'll be keeping this one on more often except for when I need added protection or a more professional look for business meetings, etc, etc. I'll post pics tomorrow and will post back about my quick thoughts for the commuter case..

Hey guys, so I've been using the body glove case for a couple days now. I definitely like the slimmer form factor compared to the commuter.
Pros: Definitely slimmer then the commuter.
It fits and covers the phone nicely so you see the whole screen (the commuter covers about half the htc logo).
Quick to get off in case you need to pull the battery.
Appears to be pretty sturdy and has a really snug fit.
Has a little bit of a less slippery back since its very lightly textured.
Has openings for the mics and what not where the commuter covers some of them
Colors and look is sweet.
Cons:
It doesnt have any internal padding on the sides so I dont know how well it would protect the phone from a hard drop if it landed anywhere besides on its back.
The back is still kind of slippery, but a little less then the commuter feels imo.
So far I like it and will probably only use the commuter at times if I know im going to be doing something that its more prone to getting dropped liked going out to the bars.
Hope this helps anybody thats been kindof iffy on whether or not to buy

+1. This case is awesome. I've had it for a month. Last I checked, Amazon also had it for a decent price. (Not as cheap as eBay though)

Any paint chipping off? Considering the gray/black one.
Theres a tiny bit of paint chipping where the two pieces meet. It also seems like theres a bit of metal underneath that paint. Maybe its just chrome plastic. This case looks to be of much better quality then previous cases made by body glove

Had the case since the beginning of January and it's looking fantastic. No drops but lots of sliding around on tables and banging around a car shop.
I bit on this case because of this thread, just got it in.
it is light years beyond the oem htc plastic case from verizon with the red back/htc logo...
this case is the bees knees for me so far... love it.
I have this case also...
Along with a Seidio Active case...
The Body Glove does fit very snug on the ReZound...
Question I have is, has anyone had an issue with the case scratching the gloss edges of the phone?
I had this issue with my Dinc and a Seidio case.

ya, i've had the body glove case put some small scratches on the 'chrome edge' of the device... nothing i can't forget about, but it's definitely noticeable.
Just dropped it for the first time while walking the dog. Ouch...
Pretty much killed the top edge of the case. Bummer

I've had mine for a few months now, It's still in descent shape, had a few falls. It fits great, and looks good. I use it in combo w/ the zagg shield.
It did scratch the chrome around the edge of the phone, but nothing to terrible.
overall a great case.
I just purchased this. I've been looking for a decent case. I did like the Body Glove when I had it on my Original Droid, although it was a poor design because of the Droid's slide-out keyboard, but I still liked the feel of it. Looking forward to this. I should get it by the end of this week coming up.
I really like this case. Definitely better than the hard rubber one from Verizon.
these are the cases I have managed to acquire so far
first photo left to right razer rugged, orzly leather folio case,orzly thin black ,orzly thin frosted, 2nd photo tudia case and razer thin. I'm currently using one of the 2 tudias I bought as they are similar to a spigen slim armour ruggedized TPU with a polycarb snap on back armour, anyone wanting full pics of the cases and how much each costs from where I'll be uploading pics of each case to my drive account so people can see before they buy there are lots of other cases mainly TPU appearing on Amazon, but for anyone who hasn't bought a case I'll try and get each one done over the next day or 2

how do you like the tudias? can you post more pics of those
I'm using the tudia with the silver back breaks up the all the black it looks good doesn't add much bulk , the finger print reader port has been thoughtfully scalloped away to make using it easier, the cylinder buttons work flawlessly, even with an orzly screen protector there's a good .5 mm clearance from it to the desk when face down and about 1mm all round when face down so the speakers are kept clear of the desk cut outs are precise good clearance on back to protect camera .

I just received my orzly case today and I gotta say I'm a little disappointed. I bought the "clear" one which I found out later was actually frosted, and unlike the pics show, it's pretty much nowhere clear clear.. You can see the Razer symbol, but that's about it. I'm definitely ordering the tudia clear shortly, my original idea was to wrap the phone with a dbrand then use the clear case as extra protection, but you ain't seeing anything through this thing lol

have to say if the clear is the same quality as this rugged case it'll be a nice case for showcasing your phone with a skin without damaging the skin

I bought the Razer Rugged case however was fine the fact that it left a weird lip at the bottom of my phone just didn't feel natural to hold so gone back to using the phone without a case.
I know living life of the edge but don't have a habit of cosmetically damaging my phone's.
I didnt like the phone in a case either but couldnt live on the edge any longer, I dropped my last phone a day before the delivery of my razer.
Ive made a suede case for the razor with all the holes punch out, its pretty neet - ill update with pictures when im home.
Got the Orzly wallet case. Not bad in general. One major downside is the usb cutout. Razer uses squared profile on their connectors, but the case had rounded profile which prevented original accessories from being inserted all the way. Had to do some carving with scissors. Not the end of the world, but could be better
Thank you

Just got my Spigen case it's the best case I own thus far and I own the Razer official case, orzly case, and the tudia case. Pick this up you won't be disappointed.
I picked up the Spigen rugged armor and it lifts the Razer screen protector
The Tudia doesn't lift a screen protector, but you have to get it centered perfectly. I've tried them all, the razer cases were the biggest POS's... Their rugged case was a joke and if you take them off without paying attention, you almost snap it in half because of their stupid design of having no side walls in the center area.
Been happy with the Tudia, still want something more like an otterbox defender. But I think I'm going to just 3d print something stupid awesome and thick.
I have this Orzly case in orange.
Fits perfect. Charging hole is big enough and the edge keeps the screen off the table if you put it screen down (which I never do).
Camera is also protected (if put on a flat surface).
Adds grip, so you won't let the phone slip out of your hand.
