Re: Are you protecting your 3D with case, protective screen, etc?

Thinkin about trying the Otterbox Defender about to go to Sprint in a few. but will probably only use it until the official HTC kick stand equipped one comes out. I really don't want a case at all... I made it nearly a year before I dropped my OG EVO cracked the screen and broke down and bought a case to preserve it for resale lol.

One more for the Otterbox Defender...I'd like to have the kick stand one myself, but will probably be too lazy to pull off this bestial Otterbox on a regular basis. -e.

I think skins and screen protectors detract too mcuh from the look and form factor of the device.
I totally agreee with you here.

But I just have one small problem. I am just afraid of back camera lens cause its really flush.

I guess I will laid (really?) it on on the cloth pouch.

I wasn't planning on getting anything but a pouch but I feel I'd be scratching the camera lens when I set it down. Shopped around and opted for the Otterbox Defender as well. I felt at first it might be to bulky and wouldn't fit in my pocket well if I chose not to use the clip but so far its hasn't.

No, HTC took the design of this phone seriously. He is a post from Androidcentral that address this exact concern:
Camera lens cover - Official HTC response! - Android Forums

HTC, in response to a customer, tried to abuse the camera lense. They posted the results.

The defender works as a kickstand when in the clip.

Re: Are you protecting your 3D with case, protective screen, etc?

I am def protecting my Evo 3D! I originally bought the ridiculously expensive Otterbox Defender Case from BB. Big mistake! I got home and installed that hideous POS and it basically turned my phone from a sleek, thin smartphone to a big, bulky, clunky, misshapen, ugly contraption that can make calls. BB mobile reps are idiots because they sold me a nice Zagg anti-glare screen protector and the Otterbox comes with a built-in screen protector. I love Zagg and have use and self-installed four of them since I had my original Evo 4G.

The Otterbox wasn't something I could live with. I wanted the Pt Platium series case + holster that was originally being sold with the Evo 4G at launch day, but none were to be found. All BB had was endless Otterbox variants. I took my Otterbox Defender case back to BB, today, and low and behold they had a stock of Pt Platinum cases! The Platinum cases are extremely thin, yet, functional. I used nothing but that on my Evo 4G. Dropped my Evo on concrete and stairs and on marble floors and not a single scratch, using the Platinum case. Plus, it's so sleek and thin and doesn't deform the phone or make it look ugly. So, I promptly returned my Otterbox and my beautiful Platinum case is installed. I am happy.

Re: Are you protecting your 3D with case, protective screen, etc?

I've been using the OG EVO HTC leather case...I went to a sprint store today to try the HTC leather case for the 3d, I actually prefer the OC EVO case. I bought the screen protectors, but not sure I'm gonna use one.
