Default Is the Epik case still the best available right now?
Now I realize "best" is subjective to people's opinions...

But I'm looking for the iSkin-esque case. Is the Epik case still the only one that's very good on the market? Or does iSkin plan on releasing something soon?

I believe that iskin has released a tour case. I have never used iskin but can say that the epic case is great and its 5 bucks. It does have a small charger hole that has to be widened by you but still worth it.

Yea the epik case is great and for the money is unbeatable. I'd second nikstorm's comment about the small charger hole though.

I too had to widen the charger hole as well as the 3.5mm port but overall the Epik case is the beat bang for you buck. I would definitely recommend you picking one up.

If you don't mind spending a little more, check out Seidio.

+1 for Seidio
Just got the Innocase 2 and the holster. Its the best case and holster I've ever had and I've had a lot of them. The case is just as thin or thinner than the silicone ones. Plus it also slides in and out of your pockets easily.

I believe Seidio is the best overall case. Epik is the best skin case.

Agreed, I own both the epik case and the seidio innocase 2. I think both are the best of their respective types.

My Epik case is great. I really like how it makes my Tour feel a lot more solid.

There are some minor issues, but for 5 bucks it's worth it to have to make a few holes wider. I actually only made the headphone hole bigger with a hole punch and left the usb one alone. If you cut back the rubber a little bit one the usb cable it fits perfectly fine. Without any modification it's just not too snug of a connection, but still connects.

I'd much rather have little issues with a $5 case than a $30 one. Get an Epik, if you don't like it get a Seidio and you're only out $5.

It is hands down the best case available when you consider the fit, look, feel and factor in the price. The epik case is amazing
