It has a hard plastic case that fits into a rubber case. I have one myself, but don't use it anymore because of the extended battery. Its an awesome case.

I know what you're talking about and it seems like they make them for every other phone besides the incredible. My boss has one for his galaxy s made by body glove and i've been trying to find something similar and have never had any luck...will be watching this thread in case someone discovers one...
Ive got this:
http://www.amazon.com/Premium-Flexi..._1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1313509890&sr=1-1
Its strait rubber, buttons are plastic-ish. dont expect the best button pushing experience though. Very thick rubber!

After fixing my Dinc from a shattered screen, I bought an Otterbox Defender. Got it off of eBay for under $25. It's awesome and my screen hasn't cracked and I drop this thing a lot! It's 3 pieces, rubber, hard shell, belt thing and the screen protector is part of the case.

i use the standard gel cases that verizon has at the stores.
that i sort of hacked out the back of it to fit the extended battery.
hey, it's the only case i know of where the volume rockers and power button are elevated.
I ordered the standard black silicone cover from verizon. I put it on Friday and I love it.
Search B0051W3IWE on Amazon.
It's not rubber but it has held up to great use. And it fit the ext batt.

If the sound is muffled due to the silicone case, couldn't you just puncture a hole into it as the microphone is at the bottom of the case?
I ordered a commuter case and I'm hoping that it doesn't run into the same issues.

I also ordered the commuter case.Black on Black.
Yes it can be modified to open up the mic with ease.
I just received my commuter case and it's great. I have an opening for the microphone at the bottom.
I kind of messed up the screen protector install on mine. I checked on the otterbox site but can't find anywhere where I can order an additional screen protector from them? Anyone have a suggestion?
I like the otterbox one because it feels like the actual screen and not a rubbery layer. I used the ZAGG invisible shield on an ipod before and it wouldn't work well on a touch screen as it's tacky and you can press into it.
The plastic is weak I cracked mined

Is the call quality reduced too bad or is it bearable? I would rather take a little call quality away for protection!
There are no issues with call quality as long as the case is installed properly and the opening in the silicone is over the microphone hole.
I have been using this case for a week and like it. It provides good protection. I can rest assure that my phone will be protected if it ever dropped. The only complain I have is that the silicone part is a dust magnet. The day I put it on, it's never been dust-free. I would wish it is replaced by TPU instead.

I went with the grey Incipio Silicrylic case. Just got it in and it is a nice fit, has a really nice feel, and looks great.

I was going to get the mercury case, but from pictures it was way too thick for my liking so I decided to get this case. The case is titled to be silicone, but it doesn't look like silicone from the pictures so I emailed them and they said it was silicone material so I went for it. I received the case and it turns out it was a TPU case. This case feels REALLY thin for a TPU case so it doesn't add much bulk to the phone. This case is tailored to fit the i9023 so ALL cutouts are perfect and fit is perfect as well. Overall, if your looking for a good TPU case which doesn't add much bulk to it I would recommend this. I don't have a mercury TPU case to compare it to, but I'm really happy with how this turned out. The only con that I would have for this case is that the volume rocker buttons were a bit tight so it would be easily be pressed, but if you stretch the case a little it will fix that issue.

The case comes with these extended bumper corners which make holding the phone easier and provides extra protection from the Left Corner Drop of Doom. The weakest point of the case is the kickstand. The kickstand is flimsy and does not have a positive lock in place or a strong hinge when opened. the volume keys as well as the power key are covered. The charging port as well as the earphone jack are left exposed. The black rubber is harder than the standard TPU but not as hard as the white plastic that it is attached to.
All in all its a nice case

Nice case..found it too, with so many color variations..but they wont ship here..huhu..thanx for the review..
not a big fan at all, looks horrible!
Makes it look like the size of the Ziggy device on Quantum Leap show.
Well......
Im not sure how it makes the phone look bigger because the case isnt pictured with the phone in it.
Anyways I was in Sprint looking to see if they had gotten in either of my two favorites which are otterbox or ballistic and they hadnt. There was an older than me gentle man who was looking for a case for his phone and they had none and he said he was affraid he was going to break it. I explained that I understood seeing how my first one lasted 20hrs. I reached in my back pocket and gave him the case. He wanted to pay me for it but I told him it wasnt necessary and wished him a happy holiday season. He seemed a bit confused as well as the Sprint employees wonder why I was asking about a case when I am just pulling them out of my pocket giving them away like toys from Santa's bag. I think giving away an $8 freely shipped case to someone who will appreciate the act and may recipicate an act of kindnes to someone else this season is worth the small investment.
I have this exact case as well. It makes the phone too big for breast pockets, but still fine for pants pockets and carrying. I plan on only using it for when I need protection, but not as a daily driver. For the price, you can't beat it.
Ordered the same case. Do you have pics of the phone in it?
I have this case i think it feel really good in the Hand and looks good too. CLICK on the Link to see the Pictures

Agreed, but the TPU is a lot more stiff. Not certain but I would venture to guess these cases wouldn't do as well in drop tests.

Just got mine in the mail today. I like it, first tpu case ive ever used though so I cant compare it.
Hello, this is my first review of any thing. It is on the sinjimoru sinji adhesive wallet type pouch available on amazon here :
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005ZVVJ1I/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8 . It is about $10 USD.
I originally bought this item because I didn't really have the need for a wallet (I only carry a credit card and ID). Being able to combine my phone and money seemed very convenient to me. It arrives in pretty plain packaging and is very easy to install, peel the plastic attatched to the adhesive part and apply.
At first, it worked great. It looked smooth, and had a very nice deep black color. It felt sturdy and was very stuck onto the back of my phone. It could carry a whole spare anker battery a little snug and a few cards plus some earbuds with ease.
2 months later, here I am. It has discolored and turned almost a navy color. It has gathered a lot of fuzzy little material now and looks very unattractive. It is even ripping at a seam. It still does it's job of holding things and is still very sticky to the back of my otterbox commuter.
Overall, I would rate this item a 2/5. It looks great at first, and does it's job, but becomes very ugly after a month or two. I hope my review helped. I would not recommend buying this product.

I don't have a long term use experience with Cosmos 3x of adhesive pouches I got from Amazon ($5.99 for a pack of 3), but I decided to apply it in a different way inside of the holster. Here is my setup: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39174277&postcount=45
Will start using it once it gets warmer outside and my winter jacket is off I figured pouch itself will not be in contact with my pocket, so less wear'n'tear!
Any thoughts on putting the Sinji pouch (or similar type of stick on wallets) with a bumper frame case? I'm thinking the bumper frame lip will help recess the Sinji pouch nicely.
Put this directly on the back of the phone.

Use a bumper case like this that has no back

Was wondering if the above mentioned case has a slight sticky tacky feel to it which I like.?
I remember the Tech21 Mesh series ones on older Samsung devices had a wonderful slight tacky sticky feel to thier edges of the cases. Thanks.

I think it was the Mesh series Tech21 I had for the S7 , edges were orange colored and had a slight sticky tacky feel to it.

I've been using this case since day one. I tried a few others, but keep coming back to it. It's a great case. I'm not sure about tacky, but it is not slick. I've never even come close to dropping my phone.
Just one word of warning. My wife got the white Evo Check, and the white yellowed pretty quickly. We just threw it away and got a cheap case on Amazon for her. My black case is still in perfect shape.

I primarily use a leather type folding case on the N8, but have tried a few regular cases which I find in all honesty uncomfortable to hold for long.
I find the edge tpu plastic or whatever it is hard to the touch. Was hoping to find a case that has soft compressible sides. The skins are soft and pliable but the edges are too thin for protection.

Note8 Tech21 evo check users, can help see if your case inside edge facing screen near top of power button is there a small extra protruding bit? Wondering if mine is defective. Thanks. Mine is black case, also tell me if yours is black or white.
