So like many others who have been waiting for their GS3 to be delivered to their front door steps here in the USA, I've been buying cases so I'd be ready to go from the start. My plan is buy a variety of cheap cases and bumpers to see how they feel in my wee bitty hands. So here is my review of a case worth reviewing. I haven't seen anyone mention this case so I apologize if I'm duplicating something that's already been said.
I picked up this case on Amazon for a little over $12 after shipping costs. It appeared to be marked down from $30 without shipping so I figured It was a steal. So far, I was right. It's size is very slim for a duel layer case. While it does make the phone bigger, it's not too big for my girl hands. It actually makes the phone feel a little better and comfortable in the hand.
The texture of both layers have a nice grip and feel. The matte black hard shell has a soft feel that blends well with the feel of the silicone core.
So far the hardshell has been smudge resistant and I have a good feeling scratch resistant but only time and use will tell on that part. The silicone core appear to be lint resistant, if that's even possible, compared to my Seidio Active case on my Rezound (great case by the way) that collected light to moderate pocket lint.
The case also provides a nice lip around the screen to protect it. The best part of the lip is that it doesn't get in the way of using the phone. It occupies just the right amount of real estate.
Buttons work like the real buttons. No issues with them working properly or having to apply extra pressure.
Summary: I love this case. It's solid, feels great, and was purchased at a great price.

It's actually a $40 case that I got for $12 (price went up already on the black to $12 + s/h) .......I can handle the tiny logo, and if not, I'll get out a black marker.
They have some other colors that are cheaper than the black now. Thinking about picking up a blue one.

Anyone else using this case?
I want to know other users opinion about this case compared to the following cases:
1. Otterbox commuter
2. Incipio Silicrylic
3. Casemate Tough case
Ha! The thread lives! I can't believe more people aren't using this case or at least interested in the case. It's great and almost tripled in price since I first got it. Still cheap enough to equal a valuable purchase.
Currently not being productive on my S3.
I checked this on Amazon. All the ratings are either 4 star or 5 star. And there are 44 of them.
Does this means it is the best case for S3 or are they asking the buyers to give good ratings(I have heard some companies do so) ?

Few questions?
How is the back of the hard shell? is it very smooth so that it may slip away from your hand or table?
Also do you know whether it is of the same size and weight of Case mate Tough case?
I had one for my 3d, very nice case. The only reason I got rid of it was the need for a belt holster, but other than that it protected the phone very well and the rubber material did not stretch out or get flimsy.

It's smooth but I wouldn't say slippery. I've been very comfortable holding it without fear of dropping it.
I'm not familiar with the Casemate Tough but I do like it better than my Casemate Pop. The Pop! Case is very slick other than the grips on the side and it feels wider then the Acase.

Do you use a screen protector with your case? A lot of screen protectors that go all the way to the edge of the screen are having problems with a lot of cases. I am using a Zagg HD, and I wanted to know if this case would cause it to bubble up.
Just wanted to add my two cents. Got the case very fast from Amazon. Was worried it wouldn't come but then it was delivered even before my shipping confirmation.
Anyways on to the case. Very good feel too it, not as bulky as i was expecting but still feels secure. Been using it regularly since i got it. Fits well in the pocket and doesn't attract too much lint so far. For the price, highly recommend it

Hey I have the case and yeah you would have to use a screen protector that doesnt go to the edges I had a regular screen protector and the bottom would bubble up because of the case.
I bought this case when it was $6.05 on Amazon and I would pay the current price for it because it is worth it. This is a really good case. I just wish they had made it a holster case.
got my black one this morning and I have to say that it feels great in the hand and fits perfectly.
I previously had the trident aegis and Neo hybrid but hated both of them. this is so much better and half the price. I have the seidio active too which is great to watch things using the kickstand but as an everyday case this blitzes it!
thanks for answering my questions about this in another thread.

Hey guys I ordered two Elago Breathe Cases for the GS3 from Amazon. I purchased the Glossy White as well as a blue called Glossy Coral. They cost $9.99 each and since I have prime I got two day shipping for free. Here is the direct link for the cases for the GS3:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aag/main?ie=UTF8&asin=&isAmazonFulfilled=1&isCBA=&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&seller=A23S71QXDZCPQA
I purchased the white one for myself and the blue one for my girlfriend. The cases are very thin and sleek. They feel great in the hand and do not add extra bulk to the phone. The top and bottom of the case is open so you wont get overall protection there, so be careful when handling it and not dropping it. There is a slight lip, but I don't think that it will keep the phone raised up enough off a surface if you lay the phone flat on the screen side. I would definitely recommend putting a screen protector on to be combined with this case. I had already purchased a screen protector the day I picked up the phone from the store, however Elago actually sells the case together with a screen protector from amazon as well. The prices for the two combined are $24.99, and the screen protectors from Elago are $8.99 alone. There are cut outs on the sides for the power button and the volume rocker. I feel that the cut outs aren't recessed enough, and your made aware of it however it does not bother me too much. Overall I am very happy with the cases especially for the price. I would definitely buy from Elago again, and I do like the variety of colors that they offer the cases in. I like the Breathe style because they are different than all of these other snap on thin cases and make the phone stand out more. I took some pics from various angles with both cases on the phone and off the phone with my dslr so you guys can take a look for yourselves.
nice review. how well does the phone stay in the case though? i've been hesitant with snap on cases because i'm afraid the phone will come out of it.
are they grippy or are they still really smooth? I am planning on getting a case only because the phone is so smooth i know i'm going to drop it eventually.
It's a great looking case though!

Thanks! The phone is snug within the case. It hasn't come out of the phone. It fell earlier today, and the case popped off but i've had that happen with other cases though. When it fell, there was not damage to the phone. THANK GOD! LOL.

It is smooth but I feel like the perforated holes add grip while your hands are holding it. I used it all day yesterday and today so far and haven't slip because of it being too smooth.
I was hoping that the official vent case for the GS3 looked like the official case for the GS2 but they screwed the look up pretty badly. This one looks good but it needs that flashy silver plaque. Haha.
Although I felt the same way about the actual phone itself but the GS3 grew on me and is now the best looking phone ever. Maybe that official vent case will grow on me as well.
Had an elago s4 on my iPhone. Best case I ever had. Thanks for the review!

Hey guys, my S3 should be here by the end of the week, woooooooooo. But I need some help deciding on a case and was wondering if people who have tried different cases or used just one and can reccomend it could chime in. Basically I want something that will protect the phone, specifically something with a lip so when screen down the screen isn't touching the surface it's on, and basic protection of the phone, I don't drop my phone often, never dropped it on concrete, I'm not very clumsy but I still want something that'll protect my very very expensive phone. The Otterbox defended and similar cases seem like overkill for me, but the clear plastic 2mm case seem like not enough protection, so I was wondering if there was a nice middle ground that wasn't too thick and bulky but would definitely protect the phone. I've got my eye on this one http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s-3-ballistic-sg-maxx-series-case, any other suggestions?
Keep in mind I'm coming from a Desire Z with a thickness of 14.2 mm, the S3 feels like a piece of paper in my hand coming from that, so a little bulk doesn't bother me.

That's a nice deal for the Kraken, I like the Aegis as well, they look really nice.
I know you said the otter box is excessive but they actually have two different styles at sprint. i have the slim otter its not bulky but protects everything. I like alot due to the fact that it protects the charging port as well as the ear phone Jack. I had the s2 before and my charging port always got stuff in it like lent from my pocket or what not. The case is lined with a silicone case inside a hard shell which will stop dirt from getting inside and scratching the device as well as making it more drop resistant. It is deffinatly worth having for 30 dollars.
The otter box i have is actually smaller than the case you have posted and comes with one screen protector as well.
Here is a youtube review of the case if it dosent play just google galaxy s3 otter box commuter caae.

The Otterbox doesn't look too bad, but for the price of $32.50 it seems kinda..... Boring. Some of the other cases look really cool.

+1 for Otterbox Defender. Its not anywhere near as bulky as I thought it was going to be and I really like how it provides me with solid, square edges so I can prop it up on my display screen in my car dash very easily and it stays securly in place (for the most part).
Hello,
ordered my S3 couple days ago. It haven't arrived yet, but...
I was using my HTC Desire S for two years. It dropped once from pocket height (due to loose pouch) and nothing happened.
I love the feeling of naked phone. No screen protector nor cases.
However, after browsing these forums, i have feeling, that s3 is the most fragile phone ever.
Do i need case ? I don't throw my phone at regular basis or drop them on floor. But do not want to loose my 500 € investment due to one unlucky moment.
I don't affraid of tiny scratches on my display or back cover. I just don't want my screen shattered.
What do you recommend ?
Its always nice just to have a case on your phone regardless. Like you said you just spent 500 bucks on it might as well spend a bit more to keep it safe.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
What do you recommend ? There are literally tons of cases available.
Some kind of thin plastic, thin tpu, or some hardcore case like UAG or OTTERBOX ?
I will always recommend the uag its a nice well built case I also love the trident aegis its a cool protective case . I had the otter box commuter but the rubber got all stretched and crappy.

I'm very happy with Otterbox Defender which contains a screen protector and a belt holder.
I really like the look of UAG cases.
Probably will order one tonight.
Unfortunatelly i cannot decide between Black (Scout) or White (Navigator). I ordered black galaxy s3.
What color do you have ? Does it catch fingerprints or "oils" from hand ?
No its a matte finish so you can't see fingerprints on it. It also doesn't scuff easy either. As for color that really up to your preference I would go with black because it won't stain but then again its all up to what you want.

Better safe than sorry. Tgis phone is very slippery. I personally have to have a case for grip at all times. I have the zoogue at the moment and im loving it. Not much drop protection but it would protect some impact over no case at all. I have black uag and a white aswell. They are kinda slippery too but not as much. Stay away of the defender case, it will stretch and its ugly imo.

Here's a relatively new one that popped up on my radar. It's a TPU case with nice buttons and very good reviews, not only from a materials perspective but also with respect to button feedback. I think the honeycomb look adds a bit of subdued flair. Apparently the case is in fact black, but from the photo it looks ever so slightly green. Could be just the lighting. Looks very nice if you ask me!

GOSH that looks sexy I especially love the way the case curves from the back to the sides so seamlessly! And it is translucent? if so, it would be even sexier!!! Some real life pics and review would be appreciated! hope they make more of these and make them available internationally, and more colors.
Also the dark green color does look nice I know its black, but still!!!
Love the look of this case so I emailed them just to see they'd be willing to ship to the states...
Dear Jason,
thank you very much for your inquiry and your kindly interest in our products.
Unfortunately we actually only sell our products within the EU and other european
countries. For logistical reasons concerning the customs clearance, we don't offer
shipping to the US. Thanks for your kindly understanding.
We are already thinking about selling our products on Amazon.com, too so that
US clients would be able to receive our cases within a few business days.
So maybe you will find our cases in your country in the near future.
Wish you a nice day.
Best regards.

So maybe in the future, but not right now.
I ordered this case just because of your OP I have the ringke fusion, ultra slim and a nilkin shell And this case is BY FAR the best case I've ever had on a smartphone. Its REALLY slim, the fusion is actually bulkier and it offers a lot more protection than the fusion. It looks absolutely gorgeous and it feels even better. You have no fingerprints whatsoever and the bee thingy on the back feels really good. Its a bit harder than generic tpu cases, the whole case feels like the rubbered edges of the fusion only a lot better. So 10/10 I can gladly recommend this case to anyone. The buttons are also covered and feel great. If anyone wants pictures I can provide

tire, yes my thoughts exactly. I found a few tread cases for the GN and NS on ebay. Casemate only makes for the GS4 now. Any idea if they'll be available for the N5? I don't even want casemate's cases, even a generic case with a tread pattern will do.

You say the buttons are great. How do they compare to the other cases? Do they give feedback, or a click of some sort? Some case button covers are too stiff, while others put so much pressure on the buttons that it becomes too easy to accidentally turn the phone on while in your pocket.
I guess i would pretty much compare it to the fusion if you have one.. If you don't have one for reference, it does get a teensy bit harder to press the button compared to naked(obviously), but its not really clicky.
Edit: the buttons are not hard to press and feel very natural, but as I said not as easy as without a case

It's the best case I've ever used
Not a single complaint. Nice feeling, grip, look, fit, material, ..
Just received mine. Looks and feels great but I found one major flaw already. The micro usb cutout is very small, just to fit oem N5 cable and it fits tightly. Any other cable (unless it has longer than usual metal part of micro usb plug) will be unusable since the case is made from hard tpu that won't stretch to fit any larger plugs.
I got this last week and it is hands down the best tpu case I have ever seen. I would not have thought that diztronic could be trumped, but it does. Faboulous build quality and feel. It is a bit thicker than most tpu cases and the cutout for usb port is small (oem cable fits exactly), those are the only "downsides".
How can I get this case? I live in Chicago.
