Sprint's Body Glove protective cover for the Evo 4G

yeah not really sure what to say...i had to remove mine to install my a-data 16gb sd card and didn't really have a problem. i don't have the invisible shield installed on the back but my case works really well. i do agree that the bezel is thin so you have to be careful but once its on i like it. the only thing i don't care for is the give in the bezel around the volume rocker b/c thats the oly real place it doesn's come into direct contact with the back piece. i like it though.

Yeah, that's the part that made me nuts so I tossed it.

I love the case, it fits well.. I personally like how it looks as well. Taking it off, thats another story, its a PITA to take it off. Putting it on was easy, snapped right on..
 
I got one tonight and am meh about it. It snapped on easy enough (haven't tried taking it off yet) but it feels cheap and plasticky now instead of like a rich piece of techo awesome. The comments about the thin strip over the volume rocker area are spot on; it feels really flimsy.

Accessories are such a racket. $25-$40 for a couple of pieces of plastic probably made in China by suicidal workers at a cost of 20 cents each. It's like printing money.
 
I have this case too and as noted the part by the volume control is the weak point. I got this case to protect from everyday dings and scratches and for that along with my Sprint screen protector I think it will do a good job.

This is not the type of case that will protect the EVO from damage from a big drop. Obviously it will protect some but not like the big heavy cases. This is a more normal day to day slip in your pocket or toss on a desk case without worrying about scratches.

It does what I want but may not be super protective that others need/want. And I like the looks! I've received several compliments on the case.
 
I have to say that the case is very nice besides the piece around the volume buttons. Oh and has mentioned many times before, its HELL getting it off. But then again thats a good thing right?

I bought this case the day I bought the phone because I was going to be working outside all weekend and wanted something to protect my brand new toy. The bezel around the volume rocker snapped within the first 24 hours by just sitting in my pocket.

I exchanged it for the the white accent case. I was originally really turned off by the look, but now it's growing on me. It's one piece and easy to get on/off. The only thing I don't like about it is that it doesn't protect the top and bottom front edge. That said, I really want it for pretection when setting the phone down, and it covers all the important spots nicely (camera/screen). Also, it's easier to find the power button with your finger on this case than with the Body Glove.
 
I find the Sprint Body Glove case to be super easy to take off. Why are you people having such a hard time? The instructions just say insert a penny into the appropriate slot, twist, bam it's off. I haven't had any trouble.

I really like the case. It's not going to protect from high falls or anything, but it helps against scratches. That's all I care about.

I've had mine for about a week, since last Friday at 7am. So far no problem carrying it in my pocket or tossing it on the desk.

I can see where that point around the volume rocker will be the first to break. I looked at the white ones but they were not for me.

If/when this one breaks I will see what else is available at that time. Until then I'm pretty satisfied with it.

If I need to buy a new one I'll just make my wife give up Starbucks for a couple of days! :D

Because not every case is cut the same. For me, the tabs are a little bigger in some areas than I have seen on other people EVO Body Glove. Also my top piece seems to be just a little small. My point is when they put it in a mold, sometimes it doesn't come out right.
 
I'm on my 2nd body glove in about 10 days. The volume rocker top piece broke.

My local sprint store has had several returned for this reason. I like the case, but don't like that flaw.

If this one breaks, I'll try to find something else when other similar options are available.
 
I just noticed that this case scratches the sides of the Evo, maybe not as bad as the Seidio cases but the scratches are really pissing me off.

Has anyone noticed this on their Evos?
 
I replaced my body glove with Rocketfish I bought from bestbuy, it is much better imo. Who wants it? :)
