You may have now attached the Seidio 3500 mAh extended battery to your Htc Evo smartphone and now you need a good protection not only of your investment in this not so cheap device but also to all the valuable data you have stored.

I am sorry if you have first purchased a case for the thin Evo phone and discovered later that you need a strong and reliable battery to use it to its full potential. That case won’t fit the new battery since it has made for a perfect fit with the standard size phone. What are your options then with the old case? Yeah, just sell it or write it off as a lost investment.

Seidio Innocell 3500 mAh battery adds a little thickness to the phone, and there is a special case designed for the newly obtained shape and size. It is called extended case.

Seidio Innocase extended rugged case for Htc Evo 4g is bulky. But it gives excellent protection to your Evo phone and a reassuring feel in hand. We are not saying it’s beautiful. It looks decently and gives enough protection for your Evo phone. There are times when beauty is not the most important trade-off. Protection and functionality are most often the decisive aspects.

There are, however, some more trade-offs for this big strong Evo case. A few other things may become useless when it arrives. So for example, it won’t fit into the desktop charging cradle when dressed in this armor. The kickstand that is at times important when you want support your phone elegantly and conveniently to treat your friends on a movie or slide-show. But that’s a universal truth that protection always comes at a price.

On the other hand, you may not need at all such a drastic performance case. It is designed with those in mind who work on rough terrains, heights or extreme conditions of some other type. If, let’s say, a builder drops an Evo from the second or third floor window, it may fall even on a hard surface and go unscratched. Just consider how often are you likely to be throwing your Evo phone from a big height on a rocky ground. If you think it is something you will do often then just run and get the rugged case, it is a vital accessory for your high-end device that it needs in order to survive and serve you well.

If the only risk for your phone is falling out of hand some time and landing on the floor which will not always be covered with stone, then a lighter protection would be much more convenient and user friendly.
