I had an Otterbox for a year on my HTC Evo and loved it. This time around I went with the Ballistic HC case because it's two cases in one. You can leave the big rubber on for super protection or off so it's smaller and slick looking.

I love my Ballistic HC case and I wouldn't trade it for any other case on the market. The material it's made of it better than what Otterbox uses. The rubber is much nicer IMO.

I paid $50 for it on Amazon. (I opted for the next day air shipping because I'm impatient) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005BTBGEO

BALLISTIC ALL THE WAY!

Returned three Ballistic cases due to poor button alignment.
Used/use BodyGlove soft gel with Platinum holster most often, but did purchase Otterbox Defender finally when it came out from Buy.com for $27.99.
Otterbox fit is perfect like four previous models I've own/own, but for some reason the screen cover seems to be more succeptible to scratches than earlier units.

Called Ballistic CS about button alignment and they acknowledged issue with some batches, but would only tell me to "try again" by returning to store.
Call Otterbox about problem and they'll send entire replacement with no questions.

My question is : What case would you reccommend? The Otterbox Defender or the Ballistic HC/SG Case? Can you provide the reason also?

Thanks!

Both are good, But i found Otterbox is good and much effective compared to ballistic cases. Check this out, I bought one Otterbox Cases from sfplanet.com where i got 30% savings in its original price by using the coupon code "OTT30OFF" and free shipping also!

I have the ballistic case and do not like it. It seems to nearly double the size of the phone and the front plastic window distorts the screen. Additionally the rubber outer sleeve does not fit well and comes loose in places. Also it makes the side buttons nearly impossible to use. Hope this helps.

I really like the Ballistic. Saved my phone a few times.

But as was stated, it's hard to use the side buttons. What I did was slip a real thin piece of cardboard between the rubber power button and the Infuse's power button. Now all the buttons work perfectly. You may have to adjust the position of the cardboard.

I'm planning my escape from the digital world!
