ooooooo......$30 bucks??? dont they have smaller ones for regular cell phones for MUCH cheaper?
it covers the bottom 2 corners, but leaves a whole side vulnerable to scratching, bumping, etc.
ooooooo.... it's exactly what i'm looking for Thanks!
im to worried about dropping this mogul to use that.....
The case that came with my old BlackBerry 7105t fits the mogul (and the Palm 700wx) perfectly.

T-mobile has a leather case that'll hold the phone vertically for those of you that hate having the phone in a horizontal position. Just ask for the leather case for the T-mobile Wing.
I've been using it for a few weeks now and have no issues with it.

That's funny - same case I've used for my last 3 phones (Tytn, Trinity, and now Mogul)
i have the same bb case, but i dont want to carry around the added weight of that (nice) magnet used to turn off the bb screen in the case..
I shelled out the cash for the Seido. I think it's pretty decent. The Mogul can be in there with LCD out or in, depending on your preference. But, it needs to face in if you have it charging.
Does anybody here use the extended battery recommended on the sprintpcs website? I need a new holster for it because it's too big. Somebody outside the forum told me I could use the PPC-6700 case?

I just got the Seidio. I am returning it. the clips from the bottom part push the top of the phone away from the bottom, I am afraid this wioll damage the slider clips in the phone, not worth the risk. Stinks cause I really like the rubberized feel.
Edit: Sorry, I was talking about the case that surrounds the phone, not the holster.

http://www.seidioonline.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=797
I was thinkin' about buying one, but may not if it is as you say.
I looked at the Seido cases and I really like them... just like a lot of other really cool cases I've found. BUT... There's a problem with most every cool case I've found so far. All of them seem to be made to fit the Mogul form factor. They have a cut out to fit the round Dpad and the curve of the buttons at the top. I've got the XV6800 and I hate seeing a really cool case, but then I look at the photo closely and even though the 6800 is in the picture, it's made to really fit the Mogul. Are there any cases made specifically for the XV6800's form factor?
I just got this holster in the mail a couple of days ago and can I just say man!!!! It's very nice. Padded, very strong top clip keeps phone in place, and the whole thing is kinda rubberized. Unlike the Treo holsters I've had. Worth the $30 imho.
@teknixxx - I have an XV6800 as well and this case fits VERY well. I believe Sedio offers two versions - one for the Verizon XV6800 and a different one for the Mogul. Just make sure and order the one for your phone. You will be happy with it.
Todd
I have the Verizon XV6800.
Has anyone with the Verizon version have this case?
Does it fit OK??
The cutouts seem to still be shaped towards the Mogul.
I bought a cheapo ($1.00 + shipping) one that is similar to this on ebay, and I had to modify the cutouts around the 4 corner buttons on the front. The case was partly over them so I cut it out with my dremel. Still a crappy fit though. keep having to press it back on in the corners all the time. I am hoping the seideo one fits better because it costs like 30 times more!

So what shell/cases are available for the HTC Droid Incredible? I pre-ordered the phone last night from Verizon, but the cases were sold out. I'm looking for a slim-fit shell/case that doesn't add any bulk to the phone, but protects the screen and casing. I will buy two separate accessories if need be. I want to be able to buy this before the phone arrives so any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Uhm... Not being rude but.. The only cases sold out on verizon are the lame pouches and the rubber skins. The "Slim Fit Shell/Case" you want is... well... still there. Do a search on their site for Incredible and its called the Shell Holster Combo.
Where do you recommend getting a case from then? I would want a snap on cover like this one: http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/accessory?action=accessoryDetails&archetypeId=12061
i buy most of my cases at wirelessground.com you can get a 15% off or free shipping code on retailmenot.com

Yeah I bought that and I bought the clear case rkaplins posted. Zagg is taking forever to ship my screen protector though. I'm going to receive my incredible today via fedex and I would have liked to have put the screen protector on before I started abusing the phone, but oh well.
received my shell holster combo and screen protectors yesterday from verizon and my incredible will be here tomorrow. I should just drive to memphis and get it early at the fedex distribution center. but that would be kinda crazy.
Shell/holster screen protector
I got the screen protector and shell holster combo. Works great, not much extra bulk (maybe 1-2mm on the back side)

I picked up the red/black shell from Verizon as a temp solution. Once the extd battery comes out it won't fit so off it goes.
I got this case from HandHeldItems.com It was only $5.99 (normally $15.99) It really fits well and will definitely help if I ever drop this thing.
And as you can see, the camera is well protected when setting the phone on its back. Hope this helps!

actually it should, you can use the red/black gradient case without the actual battery back for the incredible snapped on, you can have it removed entirely, which frees up more than enough room to fit the extended battery (this could be why the back was designed in this manner, besides the fact that because of this design we can have snap on cases, that fit snug and make the phone feel more solid
I think I will be ordering this one:

I just tried this with the red/black gradient case, and I'd be worried about gunk getting in there. It's a bit loose (can feel it bounce around), and you also lose one of the metal rings around the stereo jack, which may cause some issues as well (not too sure what this does, but it's attached to the back part of the cover. Maybe I misunderstood, but that's my .02.
those vertical snap 2gether cases in my experience r crap they nvr stay on very well that one kinda looks like that type to me
I have my eyes on the Seidio combo shown here too(sometimes you just can't put it in your pocket):
http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/bd2-hlcsr3hddn-rd.htm
I ordered that case from seidio as well as some screen protectors. I must say that, though kind of expensive, they are great quality. I like the feel the case gives to the phone and the case is very thin not adding much bulk at all.
Hey i was just wondering if anyone has purchased the Innocase Active model? If so how do you like it, and if not if you have purchased a case from Seidio before whats your opinion on the quality of the product? Bought a case from Verizon and just didnt like how it felt so cheap.
Thanks
Holy crap, I was just about to post pictures anyway and this saves the forum from a new thread. I just got mine in the mail about 15 minutes ago, and here are some pics. I like the feel of the back better than the gradient case from Verizon, but I don't think the front will be everyone's cup of tea. It's basically a gel cover that is covered on the back and corners by a hard casing. I like the look, but my only gripe is that the soft cover completely covers the power and volume buttons and really changes the feel of using any of these buttons. I'll get used to it though.

The active case is awesome! I threw my standard innocase away after it scratched the sides of my phone. The silicone inner case on the active should prevent any scratching and it feels very solid.

Yeah, I like the feel of the case, it feels solid without being overly bulky. I've been pretty happy with the purchase!
Picked up a burgundy version of the Active case which arrived today.
VERY easy to install and take back off if you need access to the battery. Nice cushioney feel to it. I'm sure this will give the unit some bounce off the concrete floor that I've been dreading. Slides in and out of the pocket without sticking.
Good deal.
Got burgundy instead of black because I wanted it to have some color. The burgundy is very dark so it is a nice look.
BTW.. I use a Zagg screen protector which I've had on the device when I got it as well.
Added some pic's
very solid case!
Is this case easy to remove?
Actually yes. The hard shell pry's off fairly easy and the under silicon cover is easy to remove.

That sounds pretty good. I've been looking for a case that I could take off basically anytime I feel like it. Would I risk damaging the case (or warping it in some way) if I was taking it off all the time?
Any chance this case would work with a big battery if you left the rear panel off and just put the case on?
Wouldn't make sense to pay $30 for a case with the hard shell and not use it.
Cheaper to just get a silicon case and use that.
The seidio innocase 2 scratched the Hell out of my incredibles bezel.... I'm using the Verizon silicon one until my active case arrives. The innocase 2 seems to look better than the active case and the Verizon one but whatever it scratched my phone.

For such an expensive case you would think...

The Seidio Active is amazing! I had the body glove, but it broke from constant falling/busting open, which is good because the phone's still in great shape. Anyhow I ordered the Active from Amazon earlier this week and it fits the device very well! it's super tight and very slim. I really like how the screen lip is so small that you can still wipe your finger right over it, it's part of the neoprene inner case, great form factor. I am still very impressed with the slimness compared to my former case.
What case are you using -- and if you bought it online - from where?
Thanks!
Using a Louis Vuitton case that fit the previous HTC Fuse as well. Case is no longer available from LV tho.

Maybe move this to accessories? I don't know!
I'm using the Body Glove case they sold at AT&T.
It looks really sharp, and feels safe; it even adds some heft that gives the phone a more solid weight and feel.
My only beef with the case is that the side buttons are hard to find, and hard to feel when pressed (makes focusing while picture taking extremely difficult).
http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...sku4980540&source=ECbn000000000000O#tabModule
Under comp accessories, the Body Glove item...
I'm using the CaseMate red and black case from the AT&T store. I would have preferred it in all black as opposed to the bright red, but the thing feels very safe for taking to the gym and it adds some heft to it. The raises rubber edges on the front are a nice touch too for the few times I've had the phone face down. The buttons are very easily accessible. My only gripe would be that the two level camera button is a little bit harder to get to use for focusing-- it requires a bit more finesse as a light press will go straight to taking a picture. Other than that, if you can get past the looks of it (which really aren't that bad), I think this is a fantastic case.
Here is what I got today from eBay, the seller is Bluedot.
The fit it really good. Not too tight to activate buttons, not too loose either.
The color is a really dard brown. The flash made it look lighter than it really is.

These pictures were taken with the Focus, then I massaged them in Photoshop Elements 8
The construction seems durable. It cost $9.95 plus shipping.

This case sucks. I bought one from AT&T, and it doesn't fit correctly. You can see the gap from the case to the phone looking into the side where the power button hole is. I'm returning mine as its NOT what i would expect for $30 plus tax. Right now im using my old Nexus One pouch that i tore a small hole on the side to prevent the power button from being mushed in.
PS: to my above post. i see the same case on eBay (i have zero affiliation yet this does look authentic and not a knock off case). See
http://cgi.ebay.com/Authentic-Louis...315509?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3360ad80b5
The top flap does not really work due to the 'extra' height of the phone itself, so i just have it naturally fold behind the phone itself. Note in the side photo it does not touch the power button, so it works well and if i need to silence an incoming call it is easy. Removing and inserting the phone is also easy.
Again, i have zero affiliation with the eBay auction yet this case works well for me.
I have an Incipio hard case that I bought at my local AT&T store. These pics are crappy but I just made them in the last five minutes.
I found this Samsung Galaxy S case at Circuit City and it fit the Focus like a glove! It's not bad, and I found it at a retail location, so that's also kind of a bonus. Hopefully more good ones will come out soon!

I've got one too. I like it, though I also don't mind that it does not cover the top, bottom, or front of the phone.
If that's a problem, then I hope you like having a bright red case because the Body Glove is awful, which leaves your only other choice the bright-red Case-Mate.
I just ordered this, its the only Snap on Hard Case i could find. Hopefully its decent, but for $6 it was worth a try.

The invisible shield covers come in a matte style for the back of the phone. I use it and like it.
I bought this the other day,
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004DFBBCE/ref=oss_product
So far i like it, there are nobs on the side instead of cutouts for buttons, and they work as if they weren't there.
The case protects the back camera lens and covers a bit of the front. The areas where it covers on the front basically masks the edges of the screen protector, which makes it look really clean.
The added silicon near the bottom prevents my palm/fingers from accidentally pressing the capacitive keys, which are a big plus for me
Case-Mate Red/Black POP Case is the one I have, and its the best case out. I wish they made it in ALL black. The case provides great protection, Already dropped it a few times getting out of my car, and the case held up great. You buy a phone like this please dont buy cheap arse $5.00 case from ebay. Dont buy the Incipio, that case is garbage. No protection at all.
I have put together a video review of the Otterbox Commuter Series Case for the Motorola Milestone XT720.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with this case:
http://www.otterbox.com/Motorola-Milestone-XT720-Commuter-Series-Case/MOT4-XT720-20-E4OTR_A,default,pd.html
It can also be purchased from Amazon.com for a bit cheaper:

Here is my video review:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrEc_0CNPag
Excellent. I have bought one through Amazon, though the price is astronomical (because of unusual shape), it is worth the money. In initial days I did a lot of SD card swap, SIM swap so the rubber loosened up a little bit, but it is keeping my phone like new in spite of a few bumps.
I have the otterbox case and I think it changes the angle at which the usb/charge cable is attached.
I think over time it is going to cause damage to the micro usb slot.
Otterbox is way too thick and bulky. I prefer SGP Ultra Capsule Case

It already did. At least I managed to break the little cover in a few weeks. And yes there is a high potential that even the contacts will get damaged if not handled carefully through the slot.
I was actually thinking about taking a dremmel tool to mine and sand it down a bit. It's the top of the bevel that causes the problem. I have to agree that there is a huge potential for damage in the long term.
SGP is way better!
I've had the Zagg & the SGP.
My buddy has the Otterbox.
The Zagg doesn't look great & tends to 'smear'.
The SGP is slim fitting, firm & cushy. The screen protector is very good.
The otterbox is a big & puffy, looks like a retard's helmet.
You have to be a douche bag to use the otterbox IMHO.

I know. I'm just goofing around.
I actually only use my otterbox when I know that I'm going to be outside for a long time. I don't want to drop the phone and break it now that I have it just the way I like it!
Even though the SGP case is nice, nothing beats the look of the phone without anything on... Only use the case when I have to since I just love the look of the XT720 natural. The screen protector for SGP XT720 feels good, but I just noticed the other day a small hole in the screen protector - no idea how it happened. Fortunately it's at the bottom by the buttons and not by the actual screen so no big deal but I can't figure out how it could have gotten such a hole... wonder if that would have happened with otterbox.

I live in Panamà , so i order it from Ebay ...
I've had this Otterbox since I got my phone last September and have been pretty satisfied with it. I had a similar one on my Blackberry that had the hard case on the inside of the rubber case and the rubber loosened up. Not on this version....even after the numerous battery & SD card pulls during the ROM flashing fun. I do a fair amount of outside work so I feel the need to protect my phone as much as I can.
Also, I used the screen protector that came with the Otterbox, but when I had to replace my phone, it got boogered up. When the new one came, I simply left the temporary shipping screen protector on and it's done quite well.
Accidents happen (Accident After-Action Report) XD
Well I have even more love for this case. Recently I was in a bicycle accident that ripped my chin open and required many stitches. My phone/music player is always in the front synch pouch of my slingbag when I'm riding. When I flew over my handlebars and landed on my chin, I also landed right on the phone and I slid a good 3-4 feet before I stopped. While my chin was pretty messy by this time, my phone came out intact and with a lot less scratches and gauges then I thought. On the plus side, it even has a bit of soaked-in blood on the scratches that makes it look badass .
Overall, I've gotten quite a bit of value out of my initial 34.99 that I payed for it and I'm still using the case since. Hope my future replacement for my XT720 will have as good of a case as my Otterbox.
EDIT: Pics for proof.

I have got my otterbox case last week from ebay India. I am completely satisfied with the item.
It looks sturdy and gripping in hand. I like the look of the phone with this case.
I bought a holster shield combo and the screen protectors from a sprint store for 27.59 (they had a buy 2 accessories 25% off for Premier and 10% off for regular customers) I'm not a fan of shields but I kinda liked the back of it which has a carbon fiber look on the back here's some pictures

Hey!
I just bought the same case from sprint online, it should come in a few days.
How is sliding the keyboard up, is it smooth?
Thanks.
P.S. What is the background you have on your phone?

The sliding is just about the same for me, coming from the Samsung Moment well it's hard as it is.. but I can't notice any difference really.
the background is just something that I put together last night
Here's a link to it on my Zedge profile

I saw that case at the Sprint store after I had ordered my blue/black one from Sprint.com, and kind of regretting buying the one I did. I like that this has both the hard case and the holster, I put my phone in the leg pocket of my carpenter pants, but when I wear pants that don't have the pocket I have to use my regular pocket which is annoying. So does the hoster work pretty good? Maybe I'll go to the Sprint store and see if they will refund the one I got so I can get this. Plus that way my wife and I won't have the same case, lol.
Yeah the case and holster are pretty good.
I never used a holster but I liked it.
I went to the store looking for just the case and this one came with the holster.
And also the guy told me that I get 1 year warranty, so if it breaks or anything they'll give me a new one.

Nice, I'm definitely going to go and see if they'll let me trade the one I got for that one. I don't really like the idea of both my wife's phone and mine having the same case, too easy to grab the wrong one, lol.
Great pics btw, really shows the product.
I'm honestly satisfied with the product even though I wasn't even looking for it lol I keep my phones always naked w/o a case/shell. I actually went in there for screen protectors.

Just another bit of info, my brother and I both got shifts but he got that case and I did not. He tried mine without the case and said it made his harder/stiffer to slide. So depending on your sensitiveness there may be a difference in sliding.
So I went to the Sprint store and picked this up. It does make the sliding even harder than normal, but no worse than the other case (the blue/black one). Also once it starts being used more the plastic will wear a little and become easier.
thanks for the wallpaper!
Glad you liked it! You're welcome

Just bought the same case. Makes the keyboard slide out really stiffly but I think it's gonna work itself out as I keep opening it. Not sure if I'll use the belt clip much but I like that the case is all black.
Is it worth it to get this if I'm not going to ever holster it to a belt? Is it still a good case? Better than the blue/black one?
Thanks

I think so. The holster is completely optional. If the phone's not in the holster it's almost exactly the same as the blue/black one. The back just isn't as slip resistant as the blue/black one (a plus or minus depending on the user).

That's good to hear. I like the blue/black case. Just wanted an all black one
Dedcided I look like a d-bag with the holster on my belt but it does work really well hooked to my backpack strap. With gloves it's too hard to get it out of my pocket.
will someone post a pic of this with the phone slid open please? I am contemplating this one as I work in construction and need a good hard case. I was actually gonna get a zagg invisible shield easy install, and install this over it, how tight is it, and would that be possible?
I bought my brother this case, and boy does he love it!
I like mine too, but it does make holding the phone more slippery to slide out the keyboard. A couple instances it literally flipped out of my hand and I had to catch it. To help quicken loosening up the plastic, I recommend every so often taking the case on and off to help wear it in.
nice
I am torn on this one. I typically don't like cases/holsters, but this one looks great.
