Justin-
Would you mind detailing some things about this case? I am loath to even ask the Verizon store Reps (had one actually reply to my request to "see" the incipio and otterbox by saying, "well yeah if you don't trash them".) Did you really just say that to me?
This case "looks" pretty good on their website. Likes/dislikes/ features/ bulk.....
Thanks
Things I do not like .
The home button is a little harder to hit takes a couple of days to get used to.
The screen protector is not the greatest. Notice no difference in sensitivity..but I am not a screen protector type of person.

Things I do like
Slick so it slides in and out of pocket easily ( does not come with holster)
Everything is covered .charging port /headphone jack.

Don't know if wireless charging still works .Don't have a wireless charger yet.

Wireless charging should work fine with most cases. I believe there was a report awhile back where the Otterbox Defender series cases made it extremely difficult to charge wirelessly using most Qi wireless charging pucks. Perhaps someone can reconfirm this for us.

Holy crap that's a monster of a case! Overkill IMO, unless of course you're mountain climbing in the French Alps or snowboarding on K2. LOL!

To me the phone is comfortable to hold with it on.

In the meantime (while I'm waiting to hear back from incipio) I cut a piece of plastic from a three leaf binder and put it between the phone and the inside of the cover to see if that will keep the divots from pressing into the nylon.
We'll see. I'll keep you posted (if anyone cares).

Has anyone seen a vertical leather pouch type case for the Turbo? I have a Monaco vertical leather pouch case with clip (open on top, no flap) right now on my Bionic and I love it. I don't have a case on the phone, just the pouch clipped to the inside of my front pocket.

Well, no response from incipio as of yet which irritates me. I have to say "No" to this case for those who have the ballistic nylon Turbo. It will probably work well for the kevlar cased phone.

Here was the result of me trying to fashion a barrier between the phone and the "Protective" case. THIS is what will happen to your phone TOO.

Inexcusable also, WHY any reptable manufacturer of "Protective cases" would do something like this is beyond me. IF the dimples don't come out of my phone, incipio is going to have a problem on their hands and its going to look like - Me.

I'm sure when they were sent a dummy phone to make a case off of it was the Kevlar. They might not have even known about the ballistic nylon. I'm sure a disclaimer will be coming soon.

Probably, in the meantime (as usual) I was the test Dummie - I don't want to see anyone else get this piece Unless they don't mind their case doing the damage instead of protecting.

Otterbox Commuter just installed on my Black Turbo - a hefty secure feel. Had it on phone now for 2 minutes - I like it :)
