I dumped Seidio for Body Glove - Page 2

I went with the BG as well waiting for it to come in. I have always gone with Seidio in the past, they are thin and compact hardly know it is there, but a week after I got my TP2, I picked it up from the cup holder in the vehicle and it slipped out of my hands not even 6" high and hit I guess just right on the plastic of the cup holder and it caused a spiderweb splinter from the side across the screen. Was still usable, just the top layer but ticked me off. So I did the insurance thing and got a new one. But if it is that flimsy on hits, I don't know that the Seidio will protect it. So I am going with the thicker BG case. I have seen them before, my dad had one on his TP1, and it looked nice but boy it thickened the phone up. That is what I dread but I also don't wanna have to file insurance again anytime soon so I guess I will just see where I go from here heh.

What do you guys think of this case for $10? I like that it's specific to Sprint. Anyone buy from this seller/brand before?

I got one similar to this from a different seller. It's okay, kind of thick though. The rubberized coating is nice, has the same feel as the battery cover of the Sprint TP2. The hole is in the right place, as the proximity sensor works. I accidentally knocked my phone off my desk the other day, probably like 2-3 feet off the ground. It hit a hard wood floor, the phone wasn't harmed but there was a small crack on the case...

I agree. I really like the back of the BG, not so much the front.

I left the BG back on mine & replaced the front piece with the front from a clear case setup. Looks good & made the phone a bit smaller also.

I see that the Body Glove faces out when using the clip. This is a disaster for me. I will kill the screen in one day. Is there any ideas to carry it on a belt a different way?

Does anyone have pics of the BG on their phone? I used Seidio on my Titan, and was going to order them again 'til I saw this post, starting to reconsider now.

I have one and it is great for protection. It does increase the size of the phone significantly but the protection is worth it to me. Now I'm looking for a case that I can wear on my belt that the phone with the body glove will fit into. The problem is that most smart phone cases aren't big enough. Anyone know of a case that would work? Thanks!
