it's meant for HD2, but I bought it to see if it will fit. it's $3.10 with free shipping, how can I resist?

I'll update with pics once I get it.
i ordered microhdmi cables from them ~1 month ago and finally got last week. haha. I bought two but they sent three. And they work well. go figure.
They ship this from hong kong and it can take a long time before you get it.
nice. I saw it too, but saw that the amzer cables are cheaper and longer as well. also, sorry, I just noticed that there was an accessories forum.
got the pouch and tried it today. it's a little snug since it's meant for the HD2, but it fits well. the quality is great; nothing spectacular but not crappy either. to my great surprise, it has an HTC logo on the front of it which is great. here are some pics I took with my phone. note: my phone is in upside down.
no comments? =(

its a generic universal smartphone leather pouch with belt clip nothing fancy let me boot back into fresh so i can take pics, im using bakedpastaries right now, front cam is not ideal for picture takin ;p
here ya go http://wasd321.imgur.com/evo
$50 Radioshack giftcard towards my evo also included $25 off any accessories, so naturally RS's overpriced generic body gloves were conveniently priced at $25 so I ended up paying for tax only.

This is my story... =)
Less then a month ago I ordered 2 Seidio Rugged cases reviewed here in this forum. One of the cases had weak headphones and charger covers, they have fallen off after couple of days of light use. The other case is doing great so far. So I had my case returned and replaced by Amazon. They overnighted me my replacement case for free.
This case is totally different from the one that was replaced. Outer "rugged" case became less flexible with more sturdier feel. Corners of the outer shell missing "lips" used to help hold the exoskeleton plastic piece in place. Screen borders of the of the outer shell became more "bumpy" adding 1-2 mm of additional protection, lets say, if you drop your phone screen-down to the floor. Charger and headphone covers have small "drill" holes, in place where they connect with the case. Case has HEV and HEV4 written under Seidio name.
Update: Just got off the phone with Seidio. This is a next "generation" batch of cases with hardened materials and improved exoskeleton fitting. =) The guy on the phone from Seidio office had to contact parts' manufacturer to confirm this =)
Interesting..I just sent mine in for replacement due to one of the corners breaking. Curious to see if I get the same thing.
I too am curious as to what the meaning of this is
Update =)
I just contacted Seidio, they are reviewing the pictures, but they told me company did not update case design. I'll post as soon as I have more news =)
If they have a next gen rugged, I'm in.
I am in the market for one of these, I have found them on Amazon for about $40.00 vs. Seidio's site for $70.00. What do you think the chances are Amazon has the updated verison?

I finally got my rma for my active case. The silicone is indeed re-engineered. The piece around the hdmi and usb ports is thicker, and the power button is no longer a pain in the ass to push.
I got my case from Amazon this week and is the real deal. 39.99 hard to beat.
I think the Pt case at bestbuy is the newer designed one and they are 50 bucks. I took my otterbox case back to sprint for this one, the hdmi and charging tab on this one is a little harder to get to than the otterbox but the power and volume buttons work perfectly. It is definately an awsome case, yhis case has 3 pieces as a opposed to the otterbox 2 and it has a holster all for 15 dollars more than the otterbox.

Sry for late response, I've been busy lately. Yes, I think they do have new gen, because I received replacement unit from Amazon, to replace older one with ripped flaps...
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
my flap broke off at the bottom but i ended cutting off some more off the silicone so i can plug the phone to charge like with the active.... i dont think they would take it back since i did cut some off after it broke.
i do like how the hard plastic wraps around the edge unlike the older modle.
I want my rugged extended series for my mytouch 4g.. dem goofs at seidio don't seem to get it!

I just saw that on ebay. I'm thinking about picking that one up. Doe's not look bad for 20 bucks.
looks pretty good to me. something like the ones seidio makes.
I got one of these and it is the exact same case sprint sells.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
except this clips over the case. sprint clips over the phone.
I went ahead and pulled the trigger on one. We'll see in about a week...
I had originally purchased the carbon fiber case with the built-in kick stand from accessorygenie on eBay (I liked it when I tried it at my local Sprint store, but it was way overpriced), but what I received in the mail today was the case with the Technocel holster and the extra micro-USB cable (as described in the OP) due to a "glitch in the system." They are sending me the actual carbon fiber case free of charge and they didn't require me to send back this holster case to them.
Is there anyone here that would be interested in purchasing this Technocel holster case + micro-USB cable from me for half of what it's going for on eBay? I've uploaded four pictures of the actual product and USB cable on my bed. I didn't realize this before, but the actual case is comprise of two parts: the phone case that encases the Epic 4G Touch, and the part with the clip attached to the holster (which, of course, is bigger than the case itself in order to actually hold the phone and case in place). The very last sample picture I've uploaded features a close-up of the clip and the Technocel logo that is on it. The package is still unopened, but has a small dent in the lower left hand corner of the plastic, presumably from the shipping.
I'm willing to part with this for around $10-12 if anyone is interested in biting. PM me for more details or additional questions.
And just in case you were wondering where it would be mailed from, I live in Norman, OK. I was stuck on a Palm Pre on its last legs for the entire two-year duration on was on contract, and I'm so, so, soooooo happy to have finally pulled the trigger to get a new smartphone like the E4T. It's phenomenal.
EDIT: I just realized I submitted this post before I had a chance to let my pictures finish uploading. =(
Bought the case/holster last week it arrived last friday. Quality isnt the greatest. Case outside the phone doesnt snap around the phone as tight as i would like. Small drop and it comes apart. Holster needs a stronger spring on the clip that hold the phone in place. Wore it to work today for the first time and it came right out of the clip twice when I barely even touched the thing. Should have seen my face when a lady say "excuse me, is this yours" and walks up holding pieces in her hand :O . Im just gonna rock it with a tpu in my pocket until seidio or otterbox releases a case/holster combo.
That blows. I order the case on sunday. It should be here this weekend. I may a well put it right in the trash.

damit i ordered it too. Will the tpu case fit with the holster?
Got my case today. I've been using it for a couple hours. Nothing like the case/ hoster I had for my evo 4g. But doing the job for right now.
If I had to choose again. I would pay the extra ten at the sprint store to get a my reliable case.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
i got the one sprint sells, and its not that bad at all. it fits super snug against the phone, only gripe is that it's not as easy to put into the holster like most holsters....takes a lil getting used too
Been using this case/holster today. (directly from the ebay link)
The case fits fairly snug around the phone, though the case itself dosen't seem to click together 100% (more like 99%, small gaps). It fits into the holster quite well. I do IT work in a factory/office environment, so I do a lot of walking around, crouching, laying on the ground, etc. The case hasn't once popped out of the holster on it's own. The holster seems to translate vibration from the phone fairly well so you can tell when your phone is going off. It's also nice that the holster keeps the headphone port accessible.
I have dropped the phone once while in the case. From about 3 feet onto concrete. It popped right out of the case, and while that might seem bad, I think it's more by-design, since it disperses some of the energy from the fall by the case absorbing it and coming apart. The case snapped right back on, no problem, and the phone is fine.
Overall, I like it well enough to keep it for awhile, until a more premium case/holster combo comes out. $20 seems a little steep for it, $12 - $15 would be a bit more fair considering the quality; though it was free shipping, so that kind of evens it out.
Just received a cheap cover from Amazon and very impressed. perfect fit. gaps where gaps are needed. all for a couple of quid !

If you want 5 .... in different colours ....
never sure if these all come from the same factory or whether everyone just makes lookalikes....
Just pointing out that this stockist has cases that actually fit. cant vouch for any other suppliers.

Thanks! ordered one until I can get something better (although it really doesn't look bad, especially for £3!!!)
Ordered! There are many similar cases on the internet but I bought this because this case fits perfectly.
Thanks!
Got one of these for a couple of quid off ebay and was pleasantly surprised. Wish it didn't have the shiny bits on it but it's a good case, fits perfectly.

Got the same case from same seller as the OP.
For a temp case it's bang on. Fits fine. Not too ugly. Dead cheap. £1.89 total price paid, shipped same day in a plain small jiffy bag.
Don't think there are any premium options at this stage either. The Casemate gear advertised on MobileFun and Expansys isn't in yet.

I am using exactly the sam case, it seems to be of decent enough quality. All the right holes in right places and right size. Like you say it fits absolutely perfect. I particuly like the bits over the power and volume buttons and the texture for extra grip. This case is an absolute bargain costing me less than £2
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Got the same case as op bought off ebay all of the cases looked exactly the same.
why are all these cases making access holes for the dock connectors, when if you have a case on your phone, it will no longer sit in the dock?
I got this case in the post today and it fits perfectly.
Not too shabby for a temp case. Definately makes the phone easier to hold. Doesnt feel like its gonna slip out my hand anymore!
Think I am going to have to get a few.
Another positive experience here. Mine arrived today. Phone feels so much more solid in the hand. Thanks for the tip.
mine arrived today. Used link from the OP. Well pleased with the fit and look of the case for the price. The added grip is also MUCH appreciated!
Thanks again to the OP.

I guess there could be third-party docks that can fit the GN with a case on. Just need to make the fit loose enough and have long pogo pins.
Ive got the same case too and can confirm its a great fit and will do me until a proper good case comes out.
Quick update ... a few days in (and several times taken off and put back) and it hasnt stretched or warped at all ! very impreesive for the money
ive bought cheap covers before and usually regretted it but this ones a keeper

Wish I'd seen this yesterday. I ordered the same case from Amazon for $19.95, but I still need to claim my ebates signup bonus. I'll post a review when it comes in tomorrow.
From what I've seen, this is identical to the Marware case but with fake leather on the lid instead of fabric.
Edit: and I'll never find out. Ordered with Prime early last week, and the seller hasn't shipped yet according to UPS. Cancelled my order and I'll probably buy the Marware instead.
Yeah, it looks just like my Marware case, which I love btw!

Looks like the case a coworker has on thier ipad. hopefully it works as well
I got that case a week ago for 10$ with a coupon. It is disappointing and is not worth over 10$. Back case is molded plastic, front is thin and not too durable felt/leather(?) sandwich that folds back and sort of creates a stand. Bump it and it will fall. Very cheap quality.
the Marware case has no problem sticking to skins that i got from ebay also.. i bought 2 and put one of them around the glass but the other two are on the front and back of the case.. no problem sticking and looks cool... of course you have to take a razor and cut the seam out..
I have this case and so far I love it. Like many people have mentioned it's not the highest quality material but it gives great protection, is functional (love the stand), and looks pretty good. Not only that but it's half the price of the marware one! Would definitely recommend this.
After two orders, finally got one. If your primary use for the KF is to stand in landscape or lie flat on a desk, it's pretty good. The inner felt lining is a nice touch and the backshell fits great and feels solid.
If you do anything at all else with your KF, buy the Marware instead. Even if it's currently $20 more. The big difference between the two is that the Acase's lid doesn't fold all the way back, so you can't one-hand it anymore without the lid flapping around to the left. For my purposes, it's crap. Return'd.
Great deal!
From what I've read the Marware case can be laid down completely flat whereas the Acase has issues with that. They are both designed the same but I guess you get what you pay for. I have the Marware case because it was included in my gift. I'm glad I didn't get the Acase for myself though. That tiny issue would've drove my insane lol.
How does everyone like this case?
The plastic part holds the kindle very well. The flap however, leaves much to be desired. It doesn't close all the way, and doesn't fold behind the kindle properly. There's not enough fabric on the "hinge" so it won't fit flush.
It drives me crazy, and I hate it =P
I ordered both this case and the marware case. I will take pics of both and let you guys know the differences.

One-handed use?
Can anyone who has received and started using their Blurex case please let me know how this case works one-handed? I can't tell if the cover will fold all the way over flat or not and it seems as if the clasp piece may make it awkward to hold on the left hand side. Any pictures of it fully opened would be a huge help!
Thanks in advance!

,I have the vipertek case, same exact case different name. It lays back flat when open. The clasp sticks out but imho it helps your hand steady it easier when using one handed, either hand feels good different ways of holding but comfortable. Don't have camera or would get a picture.
