Default Recommended Case?

Looking for a case that people seem very pleased with. I bought some cheapo that looks identical to every other case on eBay and it's poorly made. The bottom piece looks like it'll scratch the battery cover and it is very hard to open the phone with the case on. Luckily I didn't scratch the chrome or the black plastic frame on the screen half.


What kind of cases are people using?

i have the platinum plus case from best buy. It is a hard clip on case made by Seidio and rebranded for best buy. It is the same exact thing except it cost $5 more then the official Seidio but it comes with a face in belt clip. I like it a lot, dosnt rub, and fits perfectly.

I'm currently using the black plastic case that I bought at the Sprint Store. It's 20 bucks, yeah a bit more than other cases you can find on the Internet, but you don't want to take chances now, do you?

The plastic is very soft-touch, with a grippy rubber back with square texture, feels very solid and fits the phone like a glove.

That's what I'm using, and I'm very impressed with it.

I bought it the first day, it is the best case I've ever used next to otterbox.

I gave it a five star review. You save 22% and free shipping

I had the Seidio Innocase for my Pre, and it only lasted about 4-5 months. The problem was the tiny plastic tabs that attached the pieces to the parts of the Pre. I'm concerned about the same problem with the Innocase for the Epic, as it's also a slider. Would someone be kind enough to post a close-up of the "attachment mechanism" for the Innocase on the Epic?

Thanks!

Edit: I found some pictures on page 2 of this thread:

Looks like the tabs are pretty much the same (maybe a bit wider) as the Pre version. I'll be keeping it naked for now, then.
