Seidio Accessories Review with Pictures Case/Belt-Clip/Screen Guard

[lembowski]

Same here. Mine broke for the Pre on like the second day! It really turned me off about Seido build quality.

But I bet they sent you out a replacement with postage paid to send the broken one back to you. Never had a defective product of any kind? I had a charger break from them before and they were great!

Thank you for this thread, and your other one. Can you tell us if the ear piece is muffled at all since the case covers part of the grill? Also, can you please post more pictures of of the EVO in the case from different angles?

No it doesn't cause any problems the earpiece. It has absolutely no effect. Still works great.
Yes I will be posting more pictures either later tonight or tomorrow morning together with a review.

Does the camera stick out on the rear? When you lay it on the back does the lense still protrude?

Ordered mine the other night can't wait now.

No this case will actually help the rear camera lens not get scratched up because when you lay it on the back its no longer leaning on the lens. This is definitely a plus.

I am curious to see how this case fits into any car mounts that will be available. The proclip for example. They usually size their clips for naked units.

exactly, I promise it won't fit in the proclip. ProClip's are pretty snug as it is.

That's awesome! Ordered one!

Awesome, thanks.

I want to buy a purple cover just like the black one you have. I definately think I will now. How does it fit in your pock with the cover on? I usually put my Pre in my pocket when I'm in a hurry and a cover just never worked...

Thanks!

Ordered mine about 4 hours ago... nice to see solid reviews coming in! Looking forward to the pictures.

I show them as prime members on amazon but i don't imagine they'll list the case until they have the inventory to cover their own preorders and some reserves. Half-assed searching on amazon didn't pull up much of their HTC incredible accessories so its probably best to just bite the bullet and protect that lens!

 

[eyecon82]

any way you can post pictures of the evo with hardcase in the belt holster? Thanks

 

[tracerit]

will it block the lower area of the phone that some say bleeds light?

is the inside of the innocase lined with a felt like material?

seidio should make car mounts compatible with their innocases! ones that just snap on.

Hey guys sorry, this is kinda off topic but it's still a Seidio accessory. Amazon has the 1750mah extended battery for the Evo up on their website. It's $39.50 (and free super saver shipping too). That's $10+ cheaper than what's on Seidio's website

Good questions! I'd also like to know about the notification light in the earpiece.

 

[twennywonn]

what about the status LEDs are the completely visible.

Please do a video review.

Yes it will you can't see the bleeds in light. Good call didn't even think about that

Yes

I agree

 

[dkotoric]

Yes its visible but it does slightly cover it so about 75% of the notification light is actually viable.

Since you have the phone does it bother you is it livable?

nope not at all, One thing I have to say. I barely every purchase protective gear for any of my phones as I prefer the slimer look. I have owned a few before but usually I tend to take them off after a while but this is really a quality product but again I already miss the thinner size without the case on but the phone is still slim I have to say. It probably about the same thickness as the hero now.

I not a case guy either but I hate scratches and I hear great things about seidio cases, I usually resell my phones when the next big thing comes out.

I hate that the EVO's camera lens sits flush on the surface you're laying the phone on. Seems to be a big oversight on the design. For that simple fact alone, I may unwillingly purchase a case just to protect the camera glass/plastic/whatever.
