I was just looking at the Seidio site and it looks like they're working on some cases for the TB w/ the extended battery. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on those.

I already have the innocase II w/ holster and the rugged case w/ holster. Might as well add this one when I get the extended battery.

wow seidio really knows how to attract my money lol. I got the surface case, i'll be getting the active x case in blue, and def will be getting this one for sure. thanks!
 
Awesome. Will probably get that if the dock doesn't come out anytime soon.
 
Looks promising but I bet they'll charge premium out the ass because they can. Evidence of this: comes with 4 different things. Why do I need 4 different things? I need a case that fits my battery. I don't need a skeleton, holster, screen protector, and a 60 dollar sucker tax to go with that case.

For the most part, yes. There will a bunch of differences though. The battery is placed on the top half of the TBolt which will create a slightly top heavy appearance than the evos. I hope it doesn't have any indents like the evos around the camera.

Once this hits the market I'm sold on the extended battery. I need the pertection.

Woops I missed that the links to to different places. The active case doesn't sound too bad but it will likely still cost 50 bucks. The link only says black. Will it come in other colors? I'd love a blue case.

FINALLY!!!!! hope it comes out like tomorrow lol...i've already dropped my phone a couple times and it has some unsitely marks and scratches already :(

luckily, the screen is not damaged...
 
I'm being extra careful with mine because I've seen people with obliterated screens already. As soon as I get a case I'll start going commando style with this thing. Heaviest, bulkiest phone, with an even larger battery adding mass and volume, with a hard case over it. Oh yeah. The hummer of phones.

Customer57: *** Accepted the Chat ***
You are next in queue. We will be with you in just a moment.
Rebecca: Hello! Thank you for contacting Seidio Online! How can I help you today?
Customer57: hello when will the Thunderbolt extended case be released? and will it have push power and volume buttons or will it be open for us to use the phone buttons?
Rebecca: We are currently still developing our Extended Cases for the Thunderbolt. We have three cases currently under development, the Surface Extended, Active Extended, and Rugged Extended.
Rebecca: I do not believe the Surface Extended will cover the buttons, instead it would leave them exposed. However, the Active Extended and Rugged Extended have a silicone sleeve that goes over those buttons.
Customer57: do they offer power and volume button features? the reason why I am askin gis because to use the phone power/volume features sometime cause a lot of wear and tear and make the buttons stick
Customer57: thank you :)
Customer57: no release date as yet?
Rebecca: Unfortunately I do not have an ETA.
Customer57: any estimated date available?
Customer57: aww ty
Rebecca: You're welcome.

what do you mean by the above? waiting for my active to be delivered tomorrow. I never had a case which covered the buttons before. Are you saying the phone buttons get worn out faster with a case like this?

i prefer a case that cover the buttons because I noticed with my phone the power and volume buttons are very low, low to the point that if pressed to hard and too often they stick have to open the battery cover so it will pop out. therefore prefer a case that have the indents of the power and volume buttons. Hope that explanation helps.
 
My only regret about the extended battery is that my case of choice was a case mate barely there case.
 
Hi Titans,

I know what you mean, I'm just happy that there is actually going to be a case made, lack of case was my only reason for not getting extended battery :)
 
Yea right now im rocking it naked because this battery is too awesome to take off. But at this point, im over the bulge, just give me a case. I'll deal with extra size.
