I have had my HTC Incredible for almost six weeks and this case has been on it for the entire time. Verizon put it on before I left the store. It is tough, attaches to the phone well, and has a rubberized outer covering that provides good shock protection. The interior of the case is lined with a velvetine covering to prevent scratches when installing or removing a nice touch.

The area around all access points/controls is raised for protection and provides room for bulky headphone plugs as well as letting you put the phone down on it's back without hurting the camera.

The negatives of this design are that it is thick, putting a raised edge right where you have to press p and q and the upper case and delete keys on your virtual keyboard. It also blocks the search button somewhat at the lower right side of the phone. I have fairly large hands so this may be part of the problem, but it definitely slows down my texting, causes errors in typing and reduces the fun of using the phone in general. I have lived with it because the case is pretty heavy duty and I like the protection, but I am seriously considering going to a thinner hard case.

The other thing to remember is that if you use this case with the belt clip, you will have the stud sticking out the back of the phone so it is harder to get it into your pocket or another case if you need to (I keep a nylon case on my camera bag for the phone when I am hiking). The stud is big enough that the phone will sit level on it when putting it down on a table, but just something you ought to know.

The version of this case on Amazon has a different clip than the one sold at Verizon. It looks like it has a little pull out stand so the phone can be set upright on a desk or table. This is a really nice feature as I prop mine on things so that I can see it while working. Overall a well built and designed case. It does work against the thin form factor of the Incredible and the large screen that pushes certain items to the edge of the device however.

Buy Body Glove Snap-On Case for the HTC Droid Incredible Now

Since purchasing my first smartphone in October (an HTC Droid Incredible), I've become somewhat of a product-junkie. I've tried many different cases for this phone; mainly because my old phone was a shell type. I'm not used to having a touch screen with no cover. But, that being said, I'm usually pretty easy on my phones. So, maybe I'm overreacting just a touch about it. I purchased leather cases, some with belt clips; some without. I tried slimline snap-on cases. I even bought an OtterBox case for my husband's Incredible because he's super rough on his phones. The OtterBox is really too much for my needs.

One concern I had with a lot of the cases I tried was the camera lens on the back of the phone. ALL of the slimline cases left the camera lens sticking out enough that it touched any surface I laid the phone on. No good. The Body Glove case has excellent protection of the camera lens. Just enough depth that the lens doesn't touch any surface.

Also, while the Body Glove has nice, thick exterior protection, it also has a soft, cushioned inside for the phone to sit in. And even though there is a thickness to the outer protective layer, it doesn't interfere with the touch screen at all. The leather book-style case I purchased interferes enough to be super annoying. Not so with the Body Glove case. So far, after about 8, maybe 9 other purchases, the Body Glove wins for peace of mind that my new phone is protected whether it's sitting on my desk at work or sitting in my bag while I'm in transit.

Eforcity was excellent to do business with, as well. Can't complain about anything here. I love the case. It was shipped securely and with tracking. A good purchase for the protection of your phone. I highly recommend both the item and the seller.

I dropped my phone several times over the past 7 months and the Body Glove finally gave out. The four tabs that hold the two sides together tend to break relatively easily. Also, I made the mistake of purchasing a couple of cheap replacement batteries and found out that they were slightly thicker than the OEM battery and prevented me from properly closing the body glove. I did purchase the Seidio 1750mAh battery and it fits fine. That being said, I still ordered a replacement Body Glove because, in spite of the drawbacks mentioned above, it offers terrific protection, feels great to the touch, doesn't slide on any surface and has that cool kickstand on the clip. For the $16-17 price, I think it's worth it.

UPDATE 8/31/2011: My second Body Glove also broke after just two drops. Again it was the internal tabs that snapped apart. Decided to go with the Seidio ACTIVE Case for HTC Droid Incredible. I've had it for a week and, although more slippery than the body Glove, it is a good product. Dropped the phone once already and the ACTIVE Case didn't even smudge. So, if you never drop your phone, go with the Body Glove. Otherwise, try something like the Seidio.

The case is tough and sturdy. It has saved my Incredible from a potentially damaging fall or two. The one gripe I have is the the sides are such that it makes it a chore at times to press the q, p, backspace and return keys. Maybe my fingers are too big, but I'll be picking a different case.

Works as advertised. A good case, but of course I haven't dropped the phone now that I got the case. It makes some of the letters on the side of the keyboard a little harder to hit, but I found this wasn't a big deal. You just have to pay a little more attention when hitting the "p". Why pay more than twice as much at the Verizon store?
