Review Amzer Combo Case

[Runnin_it]

Today I received my Combo case and screen protector from Amzer. The case (actually cases) consist of a rubberized hard case and a leather pouch. Instead of pics, I will post a link to the item.

Amzer? Rubberized Black Snap On Case & Leather Pouch Combo For HTC EVO 4G

First, the hard case:

Look/Feel
The Amzer rubberized hard case looks great. It is matte black, and extends the feel of the Evo's rubberized back to the whole phone. It adds a lip around the entire front of the phone, so when you place it face down the screen does not touch anything. All of the buttons on the face of the phone are accessible.
The cutouts for buttons/ports are exact, and the back recesses the camera so it doesn't touch when you put the phone on its back.
Installation was a snap (literally). The case snaps on at the corners and sides. It feels like it will offer some protection in case of a drop. There is no flimsy feel anywhere.

The pouch:
Look/Feel
The pouch is a little odd. It is not the pouch in the picture above. Instead they sent this one:

Wanda Smartphone Horizontal Case

but with THIS back instead of the one on the case linked above.

Westham Smartphone Horizontal Case

I actually like this one better; I doubt I would have used the belt loops anyway. Moving on - the case is leather, with the accents shown. Stitching is acceptable, although it could be better. That's not to say it's bad, its not. The belt clip is leather wrapped metal, with a metal band on the bottom. The clip rotates and clicks approx. every 15 degrees. Very solid. The magnetic clasp closes securely. My only issue is I wish it (the case) was a little tighter.

Overall, I would give this setup a 8.8/10

One week later:
Well, I dropped my phone last night. It was in the rubberized hard case. I dropped the phone about 4 feet onto my stone tiled bathroom floor. While the phone is undamaged, the case wasn't so lucky. I guess it hit on the bottom corner, because the hole that the front part of the case snaps into on the bottom right corner broke, so that corner doesn't snap closed anymore.

Back to the Bodyglove case I bought on launch day, but thanks amzer case...you did your job!

Not trying to kick this thread, but I wanted to let you guys know this. I emailed Amzer about the case breaking two, maybe three weeks ago. I finally heard back from them today. Email follows:
