Otterbox Commuter and Impact in the works. - myTouch 4G Accessories

Here's a quote from a rep about the future of MyTouch 4G cases.
We are currently working on a Commuter and Impact case for this device, but it is still being designed and we don’t have a time table for when it will be ready. I recommend keeping an eye on our website or Facebook page where we will be sure to post more information as soon as it is available. Customer Service finds out about new case releases the moment they are posted to the website.

Does anyone know how the 2 piece tmobile case compares to the otterbox cases

It doesn't compare at all, the mytouch cases feel like they were made from recycled materials I have the body glove you are referring to and the build quality is not like the body gloves for the g2, mytouch slide, or even the motto cliq for that matter

I'm somewhat interested in seeing this case come out for the MT4G. I bought the 2-piece one from T-Mobile, but I would much rather have either an Epik case (loved the one I had for my MT3G) or possibly this one instead. I just sent the company an email asking for an ETA, so hopefully it'll be sooner than later.

cant wait for this!

me too, I'll be getting a commuter as soon as it's available.

I bought a 2 piece case from t-mobile paid 30 for it and I went to take it off to pull the battery and the effing thing broke in half I took back to them and they wouldn't replace the piece of garbage they call a case so don't buy one from them

TPU cases

Has anyone found a TPU case for this phone yet?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Nope...I have been checking ebay on a daily basis
I have a little trick I will share with you on TPU aka PLASTIC cases...
If its sticky/tacky/oily, wash it in VERY WARM water with ONE DROP of dish washing detergent and rub it all over the case inside and out. Allow it to dry or dry it off WELL and it will no longer be sticky/tacky/oily... worked great on my iphone 4 phone case before switching to mytouch 4g... yes I RETURNED the iphone 4 and cancelled my account (no cancel fee!) on att to go to mytouch, and I would do it again.. its 10x the phone the iphone is and I have yet to drop a SINGLE CALL, I lost 10 a week on iphone.... att SUCKS here in hawaii...
I am looking for one too.... i am kind of using my old nexus one tpu case for now...it barely fits with a little force ...haha i might mod it to fit better

It's harder than those silicone gel cases and fits much more snug, doesn't get linty or come off when you take it in and out of your pocket
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
So these are like the Epik cases then? I think I'll go ahead and pre-order one of these - I need something that will protect the phone but let me slide it in and out of my back pocket. What I really want is something like Agent18's cases for the iPhone 3Gs - I loved that case - but alas, I haven't found anything close to it yet.
Best regards,
Danielle
So anyone have or see any of these cases yet? I have been patiently waiting, I am getting impatient! haha...but seriously there is nothing like a TPU type of case (that I know of at least)...
Yeah, seriously.. has anyone whos placed a preorder heard anything from the seller?
I can't say I'm well schooled on TPU cases, but there have been hard plastic cases all over eBay for weeks. I considered this one, but I think I'm gonna stay bareback...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120648488823&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
That's even OEM and has the myTouch branding on it. Maybe even a pink one, you know, to match the heels...

I've seen a few here and there at TMO stores, but they always seem to have a limited selection of any/all accessories at the TMO stores around here (Orlando).

Geez, 5 months after the release of the Evo they FINALLY have an otterbox for it! So don't hold your breath! I'm waiting for a Seidio 3200-3500 Mah battery for it like I have on my Evo and matching belt clip-case/holster. Picking up my Glacier Monday and, like the Evo (got it the day it was released), going to be hard going while waiting for a few accessories for it.

yeah, on otterbox facebook page they said they are working on cases for the mytouch 4g, but didnt go into details about which ones.. I prefer the defender series but will have to wait and see.
I will say though that I have defender series cases on my iphone, nexus one and hd2..by far the best of the bunch has been the iphone one, just made to a higher standard or something, fits much tighter and the rubber part stays put..on my hd2 the rubber part kinda just lays over the bottom buttons..not real form fitting.

Trident Cyclops Case

Does anyone have any experience with this case? It looks nice.

Yeah it does... I think I am about to buy one...
Well, I just bought it. If anybody wants, I can post pics or do a review when I get it... Just let me know..
alright ! sounds good man, i was waiting for the otterbox but i might have to give this a try first lol
make a mini review when you do get it
thanks!
Will do. Should be in by Friday-Monday it says.
It was the only positive thing about my Vibrant. I have a very disappointing Seidio case on my MT4G that was waiting on an Otterbox but will soon be covered in a Trident.

heres an video on the cyclops case
looks nice

Okay, this is definitely the best case I've ever had (Other MT4G cases I've had are: silicone, black rubberized hard case, and clear hard case). It does add some bulk, however. The material is very high quality and sturdy. There is NO creaking or anything like that. The video right above pretty much shows you everything about it, so I won't go into those details because it is much more effective to actually see it. If I can get a picture of my phone next to another MT4G without a case, I will post that. While it does add some thickness, you can't get true protection like this without a little thickness. Overall, it is a very high quality case, and I am happy with it. If you have any questions, just ask, and I will answer them for you.
Does this case like to collect dust that's all I need to know before I order it
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Ordered on ePay from the Oregon seller. It arrived at my doorstep here in the SE in 2 days. Nice case - the design is well thought out and most of all, IT FITS! I kept the Realook and it took a minute or two to install. Looking through their current product offering, I see holsters and I am hopeful one will follow soon for this case.

How hard is the case to take off? I was planning on charging batteries via external charger.
- Frank
I think the case is sold out for now.
Also, the case is not hard to take off at all. I did it yesterday while I was driving a manual car in traffic on the highway. Lol...
And one side note, I do notice that the outer silicone case around the edges of the phone does attract some lint after being in a linty pocket, but I love the case overall.
Just got my yellow and black one its awesome I order mines directly from the site http://www.tridenteer.com/categories/HTC-myTouch-4G/Cyclops-Series-by-Trident-Case/

too bad it doesn't come with the kickstand. I'll stick with the one i got from tmobile now. The kickstand is absolutely invaluable.
Oh hell... I just watch the video. Nice. The deal maker for me was finally finding a quality screen protector that covers the entire front side. I also like the fact that the hard case is easy to take off.
Buying this now. Amazon Prime....
Edit: Screw Amazon on this one. "Takes two to three weeks to ship" - yet they have it on Prime. Will just buy directly from the makers.
Does the screen protector effect the proximity sensor? I've had the proximity sensor lock up the phone from being able to hang up on some screen protectors.

It hasn't affected it for me in about 2 weeks of use.

The HC is way too big and feels unfinished when you take off the outside layer. for those of us who don't want to carry around a brick its a good alternative.

Yea it would pop off, and you could put it back on (it wasn't designed to come off). I would personally like my kickstand to stay in its... I guess it would be a socket of some type?
But yea, you get it.
I bought this case mostly because I don't have a desk job so I don't have a nice, safe place to put my new Evo. I had a BodyGlove for the Hero and that did the trick but the Evo is much larger and more expensive . Yea, it made it a beast but it's cheaper than 500 bux. It did come with a holster that keeps the screen to your inside, it comes with a screen protector and the front cover has one as well. There's also covers for the camera and LEDS built into the back. The kickstand though, that's a pos. With a little cutting I'm sure the stock kickstand would poke through just fine but it appears it may lean the phone back too much. 27.95 with free shipping:

Just realized this says "SC" case and I have the "HC" case. Ehh, whatever though. It's basically the same case just the HC one is definitely for those that have accidents with their devices. Not only that I paid less for the HC then they advertise the SC one for so that's another plus. Personally, I like it but if you don't have large hands you may find this a little cumbersome to deal with everyday.
After about 3 weeks with my Ballistic HC I could not be happier. This is by far the best case on the market for strength, looks, and durability. I have not had a single issue with my kickstand. I had read all the comments so I grabbed my kickstand and vigorously pulled and shook it. It did not budge one bit. Either it was redesigned or some of you are absolute cavemen lol. I'm assuming Ballisitic took care of the issue with a redesign

Is there an Otterbox for this version?

My girlfriend has this phone, obviously being the TMo SGSII.
She saw I'm looking to get a otterbox defender for my Rezound I'm getting, she wants to know if there's one for her phone, I looked on Amazon and they exist for the international version and the AT&T version, would one of these work or is there one specific for this version? Thanks.

It works decent.
Seidio active case is another great option.
Unless you really, really need to have an Otterbox, don't buy the Infuse Otterbox for use with this phone. You'd be supporting a company that explicitly considers our phone to be unworthy of a case. Instead, I would encourage you to support one of the other companies who make cases specifically for our phones.

I really like my Trident. It definitely increases the size of the device, but it feels safe, I've dropped it a few times from decent heights without any noticeable scratches or wear, and just fits in the hand right. Definitely worth the price.

If she'll settle for something like an otterbox, I would suggest getting her one of these- http://www.ebay.com/itm/150738046136?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 I just got one & it's just as solid as any otterbox I've ever seen. Much cheaper too, and it comes in a bunch of color combos.
And I agree about not supporting otterbox too. Why give money to a company that thinks our phones aren't important enough to make cases for(even though they're one of T-Mo's best selling phones)? Jerks. I had an OB for my HD2 & to be honest, it wasn't worth the money. The silicone got all stretched out within a month & the screen protector stuck to my screen & caused oil-slick distortions.
So does anyone make a case with a built in screen protector for our phone?
I have read as many threads as I can find...plus I have done a lot of Googling...and I cannot find a case with a built-in screen protector for our phone. I know some people don't like them, but I am a huge fan of the Otterbox Defender and that is what I am looking for on my phone. I don't feel like I can ever get the individual screen protectors on correctly, and even a teeny tiny piece of lint or bubble makes me crazy...and then the sides start coming up. All of my friends and family have 4 or 4s with Defenders (plus my son has an iTouch4 with a Defender), and the touch sensitivity is great. Does any brand make a case with a built in screen protector for the T-Mobile GS2??
Thank you!
p.s. The guy who has modified the Infuse Defender case is brilliant, great innovation! But I am not up for this. I want one made specifically for this phone w/a built-in screen protector.
