What case are you going to wrap around your Evo 4gLTE?

OK, anyone put the Seidio Surface case on their EVO4GLTE yet?

Put them on both mine and the wife's phones and they work great, with one exception: the "cover" over the battery button is really hard to push down and get the shutter to trip.

Anyone else experiencing this problem?
 
I got my EVO last night and popped it into the Seidio Surface case. Overall it is pretty awesome, except for 2 things.
  • I have the Seidio Screen Protector and when I slid the case on, it was peeling up the protector. I had to push down on the protector and pull up on the case lip to keep it from peeling.
  • I hook my phone up to my car through a 3.5mm cable and with the case on I can't connect the cable. My options are either get a thinner extension cable that will fit or get the HTC Bluetooth adapter.

Speaking of the Seidio Screen Protector-does anyone know why there is a small cut in the protector? This looks like could cause the protector to peel in the future.

I don't know for sure but I bet it's the proximity sensor.

I just got an email from Otterbox that Commuters are available to be ordered. Looks like you can order Defenders as well.
 
Maybe i can get some recommendations here. Im looking for a case that:

-Preserves the Evo's thin profile as much as possible
-Does not affect NFC capability
-Does not affect the headphone and camera button
 

I got this case and it is fantastic. Doesn't add any bulk. Has a nice matted texture which feels good. Probably the only time I've ever thought a case actually improved the look of a phone. Much better looking than the cheap, glossy back of the phone itself and the matted texture means no fingerprints. Also doesn't pick up much lint.

TPU case will be the closest.
 
I went with a slimmer otterbox. I forget which one it's called but I wanted protection and something I could hold onto. I'm not that into a naked phone and it's kinda slick without something on there. So I'll try this for awhile and see.
 
Just arrived at my local Best Buy today!!! I wanted to order a Seidio, but when I saw this, I had to get it.

I went with the PT case from Best Buy. The didn't hve any on display yet but the saleperson took them out from the cabinets when I asked - theay had black, blue, and purple. Went with black and I like the fit - fairly slim and snug, no movement. Not the sexiest holster - I prefer a nice leather one for work - but for this you don't hve to take it out of the case. So that's a plus. I am happy although could have probably found something similar online for less than the 34.99 at Best Buy - but there is a price to pay for instant gratification :-)
 
Traded in my free one for a white and grey body glove case from the Sprint store. Not the most attractive, but it is slim and it doesn't interfere with the buttons. Should be plenty nice until there is a better selection out there.
 
Just received my diztronic TPU case its very nice a little firmer than a gel case nice matte black finish too

Otterbox Defender... if they ever put it up for sale... I hit them up on facebook and they told me it was going to drop as close to the launch date as possible and to keep an eye out for it... I have two small children at home and trust me I need all the protection I can get.:D

they were at my local best buy today so check yours might be there
 
I went with the old reliable PT Case black almost with the White but BB Rep talked me out of it. only problem ive had with the case it sticks sometime on the volume button just a quick tip or two fixed
 
Went in to an Authorized Sprint store to meet with a guy I was selling my EVO 3d to and I pulled out my EVO LTE the workers jaws dropped. They asked how I got it since it hadn't been released yet. I explained, then I proceeded to demo the phone to them. I noticed one of the guys was salivating, so I asked him if he wanted to check it out. He light up and was jumping for joy, he then thanked me and gave me a free gel case for the trouble :D So that's what I'm sporting now!

From my long awaited and totally worth it EVO LTE!
