Just got this case today. The case feels so cheap and loosely. All I wanted to say is I don't like it and won't recommend anyone getting it.
But I will live with it though.

Finally a review with pics on the amzer for the Vibrant... I've been wondering about this one for a while, finally your review with some good clear pics have pushed me not to get the Amzer and get the Tmobile case instead.
Yea I got the amzer jelly case as well it was okay but felt a little too cheap it seemed like the phone could come out very easily cause the mold wasn't even that great.
I also didn't think they'd brand the crap out of it like that, the pictures didn't show that on their site.
I wouldn't get anything from amzer anymore because I also got the screen protectors and that wasn't really an exact fit neither. I sent an email regarding that to them and no reply.
That's too bad. I had had high hopes for the Amzer products. Hopefully their TPU stuff is a little better.
Got the black slicone from Tmobile today and I am happy. It doesn't get the dust like the one I bought from ebay from China also has a good snug fit also not like the ebay one. Funny thing though the Tmobile one says made in china.... but it is a better quality silicone.
THANK GOD you made a review almost bought it getting the tmo case instead
Good thing I didn't get this and stuck with the T-Mobile case, lol. I guess you really get what you pay for. Thanks for the heads up!
Arrived today as well. I'm returning it. Garbage, this is not what they had pictured when I ordered it.
So I read about 50 pages of forums before buying from amazon.. just got white and purple jelly from amzer .. these are nice with no loose color and working for my vibrant. Also, the purple shown in the picture is a lot darker than the purple that arrives, which is really a very light purple. Camera, speaker cutouts are perfect, volume toggle and power button could use a little more pronounced rubber, but all in, it's working great. am also waiting for luxe argyle case .. these got lot of praise on amazon
Got my amzer jelly and amzer luxe argyle cases today. I will try and take some pics when I get home tonight. The jelly will likely get sent back. It's not what I ordered and it's not nearly as nice as the argyle.
The jelly has a thinner rubber that's loose on the sides. The argyle is a smoother, thicker and harder type of rubber. The fit is very tight on the phone and the cutouts are perfect. The rubber looks and feels smooth, but it's not a slippery smooth. It is tacky enough to stay put when you have it in your hand or set it on a desk, but it's not tacky enough that it sticks to the insides of you pockets and grabs all the lint. So far I'm impressed.
I've been using the T-Mobile case I got when the phone came out. I love it comes out of my pocket without sticking just hope they make good hard cases or come out with more cool colors.

I agree this silicone case blows...worst silicone case I have ever bought. I bought it a couple of weeks ago and my Vibrant floats inside the case badly. Also, the volume and power button extrusions are flush and difficult to locate. Poor thought in design. Score: -5
I have the argyle tpu case..and the TPU is more stiff than the chinese tpu I currently have on now.

I bought the Amzer from Amazon as well. No good! Too loose. I has already ordered a 99 cent with 99 cent shipping plain black jelly on ebay and it was actually a bit tighter.

Needless to say I got one and it was fine. Not as tight as I'd like, but much better than the Amzer.
An _identical_ looking one is here, albeit at a much higher price.
I ordered this from eBay the other week, so much cheaper and makes the phone feel better on the hand:

I know people were asking in another thread about cases, I ordered a couple a few weeks ago and just received them so I thought that i'd post some pictures and stuff. Ordering things off of ebay can be a gamble half the time but both of these cases that I ordered were worth it.
Soft Crystal Case:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360252216436
Hard Plastic Case:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180493257998
The soft crystal case is the case I am currently using, it fits perfectly. Its not loose at all and its thick enough that it would protect your phone from a fall also there is no way your case is getting scratched in this. Its got holes for the charging port, headphone jack, camera, and the speaker phone. What i really like about this case is that the butttons are covered. There is no holes for the buttons but the plastic is thinner and a little bubbled out over the buttons, you can still press them perfectly.
For the hard plastic case, as you can see in the ebay listing it is two plastic halves that clip together over the phone. I thought that this was going to make the phone very fat but it didnt at all. The plastic is very thin, and still rigid. When you put your phone in the case there is all the holes for everything including buttons. This will protect your phone and since it is more rigid than the plastic case, this might protect your screen from twisting more than the soft gel case. One problem with this case is that once its clipped on its pretty hard to take off because the clips are pretty tight. I guess this is a good thing, but if you just yank it apart the clips break.
If you are more rough with your phone I would go with the plastic case, Tho i think i prefer the gel one, It looks cooler because the back is sort of see through.
heres the link to an album with all the pictures.

Thank you! I'm going to buy the Soft Gel case
Awesome. THanks for the review. Those are the same cases here
http://www.netimes.com/shop/sony-ericsson-xperia-x10-c-70_748.html
I just ordered 1 along with a 10 pack of screen protectors.
Hey every1, is the soft case similar to a silicone case in feeling? thanks!
btw... how much was shipping? How long did it take?
Yes similar but a lot thicker, more hard rubber feeling, like a hard gel. Shipping took like 8/10th days to get to my house in Toronto, I believe shipping was free.
I ordered from the netimes site on Monday. The package arrived this morning ( very fast! ). The shipping was 19 bucks, but I ordered a few other things for my phone and the wifes.
I just used the HTC G1 pouch, and it's the perfect size

Where'd you find a red hard-gel case? The only ones I've seen in read seem to be hard plastic shells.

Well, since he seems to be from Japan, I bet he was talking about this one:
http://en.item.rakuten.com/keitai/111-986224/
Looks more like a hard-plastic shell rather than a "gel case".
I did notice on eBay a number of sellers selling cases very similar to those however, available in red, blue, and black. Prices are in the $5.00 USD incl. shipping.
I ordered the rubberized hard case. I will post pics when I get it.

i dont know, just a personal opinion but i feel that the polka dots make the phone looks....feminine WHICH is fine just not my cup of tea
yea I don't really like the circles too much either but I have already ordered ones that are just clear. I will post pictures of those up once I get them next week.
how much did you pay for the ones without the circles?
i only found one seller on ebay with those and i got it for around 6 bucks usd.
It wasn't expensive. If you want to get the ones without the circles, I got them here:

the one i found on ebay is actually a tiny bit cheaper. pretty much the same price.

dunno about the s2 models, but the pictures for the galaxy note looks like it doesnt provide enough corner protection. when you drop a phone, its 90% likely to land on a corner first, so corner protection is important.

sure, will do.
I got the black mesh yesterday. I really like it. Looks good, feels good. Adds about 2mm to total width. I think it covers corners well enough to protect Pretty well, but it does leave the top and bottom and half of each corner exposed. Sure does squelch the accidental hitting of volume and power buttons, which was a major goal. Fits fine into PU "leather" belt case I got.

To my surprise, the bubble case has arrived today...very fast postage, only took about a week
Anyways....here are some pictures and my thoughts about it, comparing to the Nillkin TPU case.
# The black part of the back of the case is actually of hard plastic material, and the grey sides of the case are of TPU. It kind of remind me of the Commuter Series of Otterbox, but instead of being 2 pieces, it's all in one piece. It does feel cheaper than OtterBox though....well...IT IS...
# It fits the phone really well and covers the edges of the screen a bit better than the Nillkin ones.
# I'm not sure if it is because of the hard plastic at the back...but it is actually quite hard to put the case on without feeling that I might somehow scratch the sides of the phone. But if you don't have a habit of taking the case off frequently, it will not be a problem to you. If you do...then...this will definitely cause you some pain.
# I think the dimensions of this case are a bit wider, longer, and thicker than the Nillkin....but NOT that much.
# The unlock and volume buttons are HARDER to press than the Nillkin case
# The glossy back bubble offers great look and also good grip (surprisingly).
All in all...I am very happy with this case...and personally I prefer this one than the Nillkin because of it's cool looks and the mixed of materials of hard plastic and TPU (somehow I think it might provide better protection).
So, anyways...I hope this helps and also hope to hear others opinions soon...
Feel free to ask me any questions if you have any

Hi DMax!
Thanks for the wonderful review!!! i am sold over it now!
Just wanted to ask if it really is anti-slip, as the note is thin and big, its quiet slippery now.
and also if the back is glossy, do you think its so "glossy" that its going to show up scratches real soon???
Thanks mate!
EDIT:
Do you think this is the same one -

only for US$3.99 with free shipping!
The ebay seller mentions no shipping to India in his listing
EDIT 2:
Bought the white bubble case from Obostore, what the heck, lets see how good this is!: )
Also ordered the Black Mesh case from an eBay seller for US $4.50. hope the quality n fit is good! last time I had a mesh case for my Galaxy S and the rubber coating started peeling off in a months time!!! had to thrown it away as it started looking ugly!
hi everybody!i received today this one:

yep mate, sure sounds a great deal.. as the ebay seller wasn't shipping to India, I started searching other sites for thi, and found it at obostore. I have bought stuff from them before, and they are good.
Will upload pics after I get it. Ordered white here so that if quality isnt good, then can order black from the ebay guy if he agrees to ship here.
I ordered two of these cases from ebay. I would review these with pictures once I receive these.

I have been using this case for 3 days now and I love it. It doesn't add bulk at all, its very light weight, covers all the buttons and nicely wraps around the case and would protect from minor falls. Also it does have all the holes cuts properly, even for the mic. I think it looks good and adds more sexiness to my white phone.
Also you should look at signal bars on my phone. That's how bad I rely on wifi calling lol.
Whoa!
Whoa! The black one is almost $60?!

These look pretty nice. It seems that all of the colors instead of grey and black are around $8-$10. The black and grey ones are sold for *way* more. Link

Going to order a set of black and a set of white. I can mix and match as I please. Reminds me of my incipio silicrylic..wish they offered a white one. But $9 vs $17 (black friday deal) well worth it to try. Now I really wish I didnt order the gray silicrylic..just been sitting off to the side as I like the black more. too many cases syndrome
Wow that case is pretty sweet let us know how the quality and fit is, I'm currently using the Trident case but I wish they had a white silicone skin.

The two toned color ones look nice! However, I'm worried that the silicone will pick up a lot of lint. Also, for the people who bought one, do the tiny holes collect a lot of lint in them?
I have been using mine for 3 days now. No lint issues here. I like it better then some of the $20 cases I bought from Amazon. After purchasing pretty much every single kind of case for T989 out there, I like this one the best so far.
Got mines today.
Don't think ill keep it, anyone want it, let me know, $12 if in CA.
Also have D30 case: $15, cut the power side rubber area off, was hard to push power button.
Diztronic black case: $15

I wanted to post a review for you guys. This is the best case I've ever used on the T989 or for any phone for that matter. Fits extremely well and has excellent fit and finish (I'm extremely picky) and most importantly the buttons on the side (lock button and volume rockers) are very clicky and have a great feel--unlike a lot of silicone cases where the buttons feel like mush and unresponsive. EXCELLENT BUY. The phone now feels solid and grippy all without getting stuck in your pocket. The back is smooth. Very good balance. Without it, the phone feels flimsy and slippy.

They do have it. I think I found it on the auction site typing t989 hybrid. I don't use mine anymore.
How does it compare to the bulk of something like the Trident Aegis? I'm using the Trident Aegis right now and I'm looking for something with a slimmer profile.
Here it is in white. A simple push of the thanks button would be appreciated.

Broken.
Received mine today. Fast shipping but the top part of the metal mesh was broken. Called them up and another one is on the way. We will see how this one goes.
How is it compared to the Incipio Silicrylic case?
Yes it's available in white as well. Sorry about that! But I love this case so much! When I used the one piece case, the silicone case got loose over time. Since this one has a hard plastic piece which encases the phone. I dont see that happening here. I'll gladly pay the $8 every 3 months if it came to that though.. great feeling case
3 pounds?!
For anyone that may have both how does the protection compare to the aegis. I have the Aegis and like it but it is definitely bulky
fectsul wrap
I ordered both the Trident and Ballistic. I prefered the Ballistic because of the beefier corners. Better protection if dropped. About the same size as the Trident. No experience witht the case of OP. But, I think you usually get what you pay for.
Thx for sharing this.
Just bought one myself recently, it's a case that I actually like.
however, the only gripe I have is that the silicone half doesn't fit as tight around the phone as I would like. but other than that I love it.
Bump!
Thanks Synenergy52, I went ahead and bought one. I want to especially thank you for the nice detailed (nice resolution and angled) pictures; it's very helpful when you can see an actual image--not some 'stock' photograph on the buyer's page.
Anyway, I actually purchased it from here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Samsung...ccessories&hash=item416695ab2f#ht_2241wt_1396 In case the sale is done, I paid $6.49 USD.
Interestingly, that seller has several color variants. Too bad I'm not very original, although I was tempted with their neon green and black case, hence why I went for the black one (also because that's the one I could see an actual image of, thanks to your review).
I was sold more on this thread, than I was when I looked at the product on the purchase page.
Very content with this case.
Thanks.
Had mine a couple months, like it alot. Bought a slimmer s/hard gel type skin which I like more becuse of slimline but it added the echo to my conversations, even with the card trick. So am back to this one.

Exactly my opinion as well. I feel like the silicone material needs to be a tad bit harder so it doesn't flex so much. Which I would gladly pay much more for.

Amazon doesn't have the all white one. Looking for another alternate case.
anyone else feel the silicon is to lose around the screen edge.

Amazon.com - Samsung Galaxy S2 T-Mobile T989 Accessories - Hybrid Case $8
Shipping was FAST! HIGHLY satisfied
Sorry for the hair on my phone... I wish I had seen it before taking the pics! YUCK!

I know of an even better case and its 7.77 on ebay!!!!!!! Plus it has a built in kickstand and multiple colors!! here is the link http://www.ebay.com/itm/T-MOBILE-SAMSUNG-GALAXY-S-2-II-T989-HEAVY-DUTY-2-LAYERS-CASE-w-BLUE-KICK-STAND-/220960460348?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3372450e3c
I didn't see another thread with this specific topic. Who out there is using a case for their GS3, and what cases are you using? I'm on the fence, am not usually a case user, and I'm not sure which one to buy. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Also, any pictures and/or links would be appreciated!
i got a case from rockphones. Its really more of a stylish low profile bumper than an encasement
I've been hearing good things about Diztronic cases so I ordered one to try out.
Are the TPU cases supposed to be good shock absorbers?
I picked up a Body Glove today from a local AT&T store. Way overpriced, at $30. But, it is a snug fit, and the whole thing slips into a leather belt-holster nicely.
That being said, I just put on a Zagg HD and am thinking of ordering one of those carbon-fiber stick-ons.
I've got a Rock case on order, just waiting for it to ship. It comes from China so it takes a while to ship but those who have had it said it is very slim and works great with the phone. Definitely not the case to look for if you are looking for protection but I am just looking for something that wont scratch the bottom and protect the camera and screen a little.

yes. I think they're great. That's what I had on my gs2 and loved it.

I picked up a Cimo TPU case from amazon for 9 bucks shipped. Had one on my evo 3d and it was really nice. Also have a zagg hd. Literally the best screen protector I've ever had. Can't even see its there.

I just ordered one as well - thanks for the tip!
Now I would like to find a charging dock that would work while leaving this cover on during charging (if any exists?!). Taking the cover on & off just to dock is not going to happen.....
Thanks again bro!
Okay, so I have to admit this case is intriguing.

I agree. If you find one please let me know.
This is the case I bought, hopefully it's good. There's not enough reviews about cases yet, so I'm nervous when making decisions on which accessories to get for the S3.
Elsse Case
Otterbox Commuter here. This thing is so slick and slippery I am going to need to put some duct tape or something on it for grip! The store only had plain ole black so maybe I'll just get a Defender online since I know they're grippier.
i ordered the incipio silicrylic case after reading alot of good reviews. just waiting for it to come in.
Incipio case on Amazon
I bought the Diztronic case. It's decent and it comes with a screen protector which was easy to put on.

it is a great case, just a little thick for me. i'm still on the hunt for a decent hybrid that doesn't add too much bulk. looking to try out the pop case by case mate and go from there. i might end up with a high end TPU, either from incipio or speck. the price difference between those two is very large though (almost 20 bucks ).
I was not using a case and you can tell from the pics I've attached I'm regretting it... I do have insurance, so getting a replacement. In addition, I'm going to try the Case Mate Pop.
As I'm sure someone will ask, the screen shattered by landing perfectly flat (screen first) on tile from a ~3 foot fall. The phone without a case is so thin & slick...
I got 3 - went Red, White and Blue!
Couldn't decide which to get, so got 3 !!
I had a Trident Aegis before for my prior phone, the LG g2x (longest year of my life, loved and HATED that phone, it reset ALL the time, even after SW update!) and it does make it bulkier but is GOOD protection, so I got several levels of protection, looks sleekness, after reading everyone else's input, recommendations etc
Got them all on Amazon (along with more goodies!)
