I know it's a personal preference. I would like to know your recommendation on cases. I would like to protect my Captivate from hard accidental drops.
Link to the product would be awesome!
Thanks.

Since you have, or are getting, is that case rubbery? Hoping to find one that slides in and out of pocket easily..
+1 to the Otterbox commuter. I have the bodyglove, the amzer argyle tpu and a silicone ebay special... The Otterbox is my favorite overall. The plastic piece that snaps on over the silicone skin makes it pretty smooth in and out of the jeans pocket...

Thanks for both your comments and those pictures are great! Convinced and ordered.
I currently have the bodyglove case and like it enough to wait till the defender case comes out. I really want the defender case. Can't go wrong with otterbox either way though.

This is the Qubits Snap-On case for the GSM Galaxy Nexus.
This does not fit the Verizon LTE version.
It is very similar to the Incipio Feather and the Case-Mate Barely There.
http://www.amazon.com/SAMSUNG-RUBBE...9UWU/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1324590852&sr=8-4
The case fits perfectly and is very snug. The case has a rubberized coating on the inside and outside of the case. There is a small lip on the front of the device for minimal lay-on-the-table design. The side edges are very smooth, but the top and bottom edges are a tiny bit rough. It isn't uncomfortable, and I don't really mind. With this design, the top and bottom are halfway exposed, but comparing with the Feather, it does cover more. The case is fairly thin, but not as thin as the Feather. Basically, this just gives me more grip to hold the phone.
It is only $8.90 with prime shipping, a great value IMO.
BTW I have a skinomi screen protector on at the moment, but will be applying XO Skins very soon.

Figure it was better than creating one in the "want to sell" forums for jusgt one case....Thanks guys...PM if u want this
I got it for only around $5 from Amazon. But after one or two days of usage I found it too slippery. I'm waiting for mesh case they provide more grip IMO
Is there gonna be any mesh cases available?

Can anyone verify any horizontal leather belt clip cases that will work with a tpu case? Had this setup on my last phone and was mint got nearly two years.

I have the same setup.
Via eBay I purchased this case and it's a very good fit but a tiny bit loose.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAP...&sspagename=STRK:null:IT&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042LM6QY/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00
This is what I'm using currently - the belt loop is surprisingly strong and versitle - I'm more used to a clip and was originally going to purchase the clip for this if the pouch wound up working well but the clip is completely unnecessary in this case!
I went with this one:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003XKS4WA/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
Purchased it in September of 2011. Works well with a TPU case. Clip holds up well, and it also has additional two belt loops. It's large enough that I can even squeeze a little mini keyboard in (elastic on the sides) but it fits almost perfectly just the E4GT with TPU case.
someone at a yardsale fleamarket kind of thing has those REIKO cases and they had one that FIT my GSII "INSIDE" its hybrid hard/silicone case !! like a freaking glove. like it was freaking designed for it !!
and he only got one (my brother) I was going to eat him on the spot for that!
so now I have to stalk the fleamarket and hope the guy comes back and has more of them
Will any of these fit with a Ballistic case? I don't like carrying it in my pocket.
any vertical pouches?
I use this one with a TPU case. I thought the fit was very well.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0044WJUDS/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
I purchased the case jrodd suggested and I am pleased with it. It fits well with a tpu case or a light hybrid case. It would probably be to lose with no case at all. I am using this case I purchased off Ebay with it and am very happy with it.

That one is for the Note, not S3.
First several users are ebay sellers making fake accounts to pawn off their goods...whole thread is totally bogus
theres referrals attached to the links
somebody trying to scam other users into buying something so they can get points
S3 Stand Case
As much as this case is my favourite because of gaming/watching reasons, i really don't like using them. It just kills our phones beautiful design.
Hi, are there any suggestions on cases I should get from eBay that are thin and protects the front? I might get a bumper or just whatever... Any suggestions?

No thin case will totally protect the phone from drops. Just my .02
Total protection = bulky cases.
What you need to look for is something that the inside edges are noticeably raised on the front.
I like my Trident Kraken because ita 3 cases in 1. I don't have to make it aa bulky when I dont need it.

This will only help if you drop your phone on a perfectly flat surface as the front lip is not that high. If there is a small rock or the area is uneven at all it most likely won't help. Take if from someone that cracked is screen with a TPU case on it.
Get better protection if your prone to drops. This screen shatters EXTREMELY easy.

i just ditched my otter box commuter for a body glove tactic case. offers about the same protection but feels less bulkier. the buttons aren't a p.I.t.a. to press either
I'm a construion worker and I'm lookin for realy solid case for my new sgs3. I'm thinking of urban armor gear. It's there anything better?

It will depend on the features you are looking for and tradeoffs you are willing to accept. Urban armor is okay paired with a good screen protector and it keeps your overall phone somewhat thin. Otterbox Armor ifs crush proof and waterproof to a degree but at the expense of sound quality (Bluetooth is an alternative) and makes the phone super bulky. Your choice.

I would say most otterbox cases will do the trick.

Have a couple of Otterbox Defender cases as well, but they're too bulky.
I've purposely driven my truck, (1997 Chevrolet Blazer LT), over my ZeroLemon case, and my phone still works fine. There's a crack in the screen, but considering 2.5T rolled over it as a a test, it's a fine case.
look at Lifeproof cases? they may be pricy but worth it. http://www.amazon.com/LifeProof-Ser...5479&sr=8-1&keywords=lifeproof+galaxy+s3+case they are out of stock at the main site but they are cheaper on amazon anyways
It's good
So beautiful...!!!
Apart from looks, this case is great. I mean for a construction worker it'll do a great job.
