Just a quick review of one of the better cases that I have come across...for those who dont like TPU and soft cases were the lip around the screen would easily peel back, and dont feel like actual part of the phone...Seems to be the only option was to run with no case, or them clip on cases.
The Momax UltraThin is the best case for myself at the moment, offering all that I am after, a phone that is still slim, protects it from minor scratches...I admit, not much drop protection but then, even thicker cases dont always promise absolute protection.
Anyways, the case is well lipped, accurate and precise, the holes for the buttons are well placed and shaped, overall very easy, as if there was no case on. The camera hole is well flushed to the camera itself.
Most of all this case actually clips on very tight and firm, just the way I like it...there is no give or any gap or loose points like TPU cases or SGP Neos...its just a firm case, that makes you feel like you are holding onto a phone without any added bulk...
Plus, the paint job on it is absolutely stunning...pretty flawless, high quality product...for a fair price...Ill let the photos do the talking...
Cheers.
Nice and simple case. The price seems cool too, thanks for sharing the product, I'll have a look at it!
Looks very nice. Where did you get it from?

I got mine on Ebay, shipping took about 1 week to New Zealand which is as slow as things get...
Also, is the material on the inside part of the case metal? I'm afraid it would scratch the plastic on the back of the phone if there's any rubbing.. ?

It is plastic, very smooth so I do not think it would scratch at all unless there is sand or other small hard particles between the case and phone.
What is different from other mesh cases ?

There are no mesh that allows small dusts to get between case and phone I suppose? I believe it also comes in transparent as well...
Have the same case - price and quality are perfect. I like that comparing to original phone materials this case feels like good-old soft-touch back panel. Only drawback I can find is that this case can be scratched easily - after a month of carrying my phone mainly in the pocket there appeared lots of small scratches. I bet this is due to the material of the case.

I havent had any issues with calls or GPS...
Not a fan of cases that expose the top or bottom of the phone so I am still looking while my S2 is in transit.
Thanks.
Can anyone upload some pics of it on please.
Does it fit perfect?
How's quality, does it scuff easily?
Does it fold back on itself so you can use the phone like this?
Does it stay shut ok, is there anything to keep it closed? Im a bit worried it might end up getting folded the wrong way so doesn't stay closed properly? Would be great to have an iPad like smart cover...
I'm about to order a white S3, but am going to get the blue flip case as I like the contrast between the two, anyone have this combo?
I have the official white flip case and it looks really good. You remove the original back off the galaxy siii and clip in the flip case instead. A perfect fit too. Very professional looks good to me. The top flip part does fold behind back of phone easily! seems designed to fold that way too!
When flip cover is closed over screen it doesnt fasten in place but it does stay in place well. Only bought phone and flip case yesterday..

I ordered a flip case with my vzw preorder, but I'm going to get the wireless charger when it releases and that requires a unique back cover that I suppose will then make the flip cover useless to me....

NO. WAY!!!
/sarcasm
I got mines for free from P4U they gave me a 32gb card and an original case i was shocked i thought it would be a cheap case lol..
It fits perfect the interior for the front is a soft cloth like the ones you get when you buy a screen protector..
The outside is hard plastic feels awesome to the touch.. It does cover the LED so you will miss your notifications if you do happen to miss it. But at in the dark you can see it..
Oh and the back bit adds a bit of weight to it so your phone feels alot more heavier not too heavy though makes it feel perfect.. Back plate isn't flexible either it's solid..
I've not had any scuffs at all in the last 4 days i have been using it so no it doesn't get ruined easily I guess..
Other then that it's a brilliant case..
Has anyone purchased the blue version of the flip case? How does the shade of "chrome blue" compare to the "pebble blue" of the original back?

My idea is to get the white S3 and buy the blue flip cover, I think they look good together
The problem with the official flip case is that it actual replacing the original back cover and it is made from the same material just like the original back cover.
The display is protected but the back side...well...unprotected...you can still scratch the back.
After several weeks or months the back cover will still be damaged and it will look ugly with all that scratches...and then what? buy another flip cover?
Has anyone tried to combined the official flip case with another case or bumper or whatsoever to protect the back cover?
With this for example:
http://www.incipio.com/Samsung-Gala...-S-III-feather-Ultralight-Hard-Shell-Case.asp
I would like to see a drop test with the flip cover vs no flip cover and see if it actually protects the screen, otherwise it doesn't worth anything.

Beside the fact that it does not protect the back cover.
I have also some doubts regarding this issue.
The thing is, there is lock or snap on mechanism on the flip case.
Meaning, the flip can be opened very easily...I dunno if this is still reliable if it falls like...not opening during fall and leave the screen unprotected.
Note:
Providing some degree of protection during fall, it is impossible to protect it to 100%.

No offense guys, but this is simply one of the worst ideas I have ever seen for a phone accessory. Why in the hell would anyone want to add more steps to accessing their phones? I can understand it with a tablet, where you're never in huge hurry to start working on something; but on a phone?!?! Flip-phones are extinct for a reason guys.

This. I have a flip-cover for my OG Galaxy Tab, but I've never been able to understand why you'd want one on a phone either.
Flip covers provide very little protection against drops; make it more inconvenient to instantly access your phone, and have an annoying floppy flap on the back when open during calls.
The only pros I can see is that it looks "adult", and that some flip covers fold to act as a landscape stand.

So you are also against leather pouches/sleeves?
It provides screen protection for when the phone is in a pocket.
No, the flip cover doesn't protect the back - it's not meant to since it is a replacement back. I.e. the mere fact that you can easily replace the back with a new one means that rather than put an additional cover on there you could just treat the back as a cover and replace it if it gets scratched.

Exactly.
I don't like cases in general. The back cover is a replacement as you say, the front flap is to protect the screen in pocket. This is exactly what I want. I don't want a bumper, back case that adds bulk to the phone. It's slim and light for a reason.
My other option is a pouch, so I can again protect in pocket, but use the phone naked

I have another solution (works for me): Put your keys and your change in your *other* pocket, then you don't need any pocket screen protection. As an added bonus, the screen emerges from your pocket with all the fingerprints mostly wiped off.
unlike most people i prefer soft silicone cases. it makes the phone stick to damn near any surface and that is important for me. i would LOVE to find a case that integrates the silicone into the back battery cover (replaces the cover) and also follows the shape of the phone to the sides (bumpers). i have seen some "hybrid" cases that are metal/plastic on the back with silicone bumpers but they are cases and not battery cover replacements.
anyone understand what im shooting for? its not so much protection from being dropped but more the ability for the phone to "not slip" on various surfaces.
i would also entertain a combination of soft silicone bumpers and a different battery cover as long as the silicone bumper is raised off the back and front enough to provide grip/protection.

Personally I have a "carbon" skin on the back plate, and an aluminum bumper, but I had looked into getting a silicone one. The sticker on the back A) looks cooler B) gets rid of the stupid Tmobile branding, and C) does make it a littler easier to grip in hand, but I doubt it adds much grip to other surfaces.
I would think it pretty unlikely that there will be what you are looking for unless you were to make one/have one made. You might be able to find some sort of stick on product to attach to the battery cover though. I am thinking you could maybe take one of those pads designed to put on your dashboard to make things stick to the pad, and instead apply it directly to your phone. Might be pretty thick though, but that would also give you some protection. Then you could get a silicone bumper on ebay for a few bucks and have something similar to what you are looking for.

So, you basically want the opposite setup of an Otterbox? Soft silicone on the back?
This crazy query netted me a ton of results. Note 2 silicone case.
This isn't exactly what you are looking for, as you need the harder case to snap into the battery compartment, but it might be a start?

I would hate to have to put your phone into any sort of pocket, lol!
Not sure if you'll ever find once since the NFC chip is integrated into the battery door which means whoever makes a replacement will have to include a NFC chip (which I don't see as very likely)
Oh, good point, didn't think of that.
double sided tape on the back of your choice of cases.
i have already ordered a simple silicone case with screen covers for the day to day until i find what im looking for.
also i found this last night after making this post
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Soft-Silico...1?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item43b5c04917#shId
say delivery time is a month or so LOL but its only a few $ and looks like it has silicone edges front and back. i figure this will work great with a dark blue brushed aluminum back cover that seems to get so much love/hate on this forum.
There are a ton of bumpers. That's not the hard part. What you wont find is a silicone backplate, for the reasons listed above.

You actually don't have to have the NFC chip on the battery door. There's a ton of replacement back doors on eBay for the Note II that explicitly state no NFC in their description so it's not a requirement per say as long as the person buying it knows and is fine with not having NFC.
Personally, I went and bought one of those battery door replacements with built in flip cover for the front on eBay and made sure to buy one that did have the NFC chip. I doubt I'll ever use it but just in case.
When I looked though there was a ton that said no NFC.
yea, i really dont care about nfc... why not have a plastic battery cover with a rubbery/silicone back coating? does not have to be thick like a case, just enough to keep everything from sliding around... sounds simple enough.
If you don't mind modifying your backplate and really just want to ensure that it does not slide around as much, you might try applying a few thin layers of this - http://www.homedepot.com/buy/perfor...ubber-coating-spray-11203-6.html#.UKvGrod9JjY

The "CHIP" isn't in the battery door, the antenna plate is which is a lot easier to duplicate than the electronics.

It's also stuck on there. With enough patience and motivation it could be removed and attached to a new backplate. Might ruin the original, but that's replaceable.

True, but my point still stands, meaning most manufacturers won't want to tackle that problem. And yes, if you don't care about NFC then this doesn't really matter.

I am thinking about getting a case for my phone, but I also want to get the leather back, but it seems like a waste to put a case over the leather back. Do you guys think a case is necessary to protect the phone?
It is a waste if choosing a back case.But a hybrid kickstand case is a good choice for your g4.
have you considered a bumper case so you get the best of both worlds?

get a bumper.
you won't have to worry if you drop your phone on the front, sides or the corners, and your leather would get as much wear as if you're going naked.
Yeah I didn't even think of a bumper. Can you guys suggest some good ones?
yes, case is necessary for me. and i am using a wallet type leather case and it's function is useful for me.
A case is not necessary if you're careful in general. That's me, but dropping your phone is practically inevitable. If I don't drop it, someone will do it for me.
Naked is always the prettiest choice, but you gotta protect your investment.
I bought a bumper, the QuickCircle, and a wallet case by Goospery.
I dig the aluminium bumper because it's discreet, but it doesn't protect the back cover that bulges out.
I like the QuiCircle flip case because it actually adds functionality (and wireless charging in some cases), but the flipping is inconvenient to me and it hides the phone
I like the Goospery wallet case beacuse of the colors and wallet convenience, but it's HUGE, it adds at least 2 cm in height to the phone
In all honesty, I'll be playing around with them, but eventually I'll go back to naked
Hope this helps
Edit:
Aluminium bumper
QuickCircle
Goospery Wallet
I got the leather-backed model, so putting a case on it sounds a bit like a waste.
No case or anything for me. I'm waiting to find a good bumper that hours on and off easily add I plan to replace the battery semi regularly. I have yet to find a bumper that goes on and off easily yet though.
I bought a cheap rubber case from Amazon (£1.50). I have the plastic backed phone so no worries about the leather but the case gives me a little more grip and a little more protection without adding much bulk. It'll do me!
I think a case is an absolute necessity. But I just have the plastic-backed phone. I wouldn't want to cover up the leather back if I had it.
I LOVE the Slim Exact Fit Hard cases. Especially the Incipio Feather because it has a nice soft matte rubbery feel, but they don't make one for the G4. Instead I have the Spigen ExactFit case. It fits exactly the same but the finish (while matte) is slick, not rubbery.
But YES a case is needed. As little protection these "slim" fit cases provide, they do a whole lot surrounding the phones body. I have dropped mine, slid it across a parking lot, and all kinds of stuff. They do help keep the phone body from getting scratched and dented.
They are like $6. Well worth it. I have sent emails to Incipio to try and convey them to do a Feather Case.
Yes a case is necessary, I dropped my g4 2 days after i got it thank god i had a case on it
Had my g4 for a week and it slid out of my pocket getting out of my truck yesterday. Cover fell off and battery spilled out and everything and now my shiny new phone has a mean scuff on the very top left corner ((
I'm looking to get a metal bumper now.. Just wish there was one of those fancy Japanese brands available for it but do they even sell lg phones in Japan?
It is not necessary if you have lots of money to change phone every month.
Case is absolutely essential. The brown leather is really slippery compared to the plastic back, I managed to launch my phone within 2 days of recieving it. The screen may have survived the impact with a case - the plastic surround certainly wouldn't have had chunks gouged out of it...
The encouragement of going without a case so that the leather wears is going to cause an awful lot of broken glass.
Yes, a case is an absolute necessity if you want to keep it safe from drops. I recommend a Spigen hybrid or something similar that can shock absorb. I had a slim hard case on my nexus 6 and after a relatively minor fall it cracked. My insurance wrote it off and gave me a cash payout. I gut a neo hybrid straight away for my G4. Breaking your phone and having to wait for insurance is a right ball break.

I usually go with a case, however I feel that the G4 with a case will be a little too large for my hands.
For me the look of deep blue back is too nice to just cover up. I've opted for no case this time as the phone feels very nice in hand.
I do want to state that the shiny metal band has already shown scratching already.

In case you are not aware. It's a chrome plating. Not metal..
since I'm using the word best, i must start off by saying it is always subjective.
http://m.araree.com/product/araree®-mustang-diary-for-galaxy-s10/291/?cate_no=174&display_group=1
why do i say it's the best?
-low profile, probably the only wallet case that is this low profile aside from nodus access case iii
-usable bill pocket, enough to put small notes considering the size of phone
-slots for cards, i understand some wallet case only provides 1 slot
-synthetic leather, low maintenance, dry and soft, not tacky
-suede finish inside, feels good
-hard shell, exposed buttons rather than enclosed. provides better flex or bend protection
-modifiable, why do i say so? since hard shell is slap on the interior case, it is definitely using adhesive. thankfully, i was able to peel the hard shell off and install a microsuction film. with the wider case, you should be fine with many slim case. currently I'm using the official clear case from samsung that is provided free.
-wireless chargeable, of course
-tactile buttons feel on the side of the case, easily identify where the buttons are, volume or bixby.
-different speaker hole design, on call? close the cover and u will still listen and talk fine.
-room for pressy or mswitch, if you are only tws earbuds person, you may consider getting additional buttons for your phone by utilizing the audio jack.
-made/designed in/from korea, not really a point but samsung from korea, definitely built best for it.
cons, maybe:
-no magnetic closure
how do you clean the microsuction film? use another adhesive tape.
do share your thoughts and the best wallet case you know if any.

It seems like having cards up against your phone screen is not very smart. Wish we had an old HTC style Ice View case would be awesome. Open the cover the screen comes on, close the cover the screen goes off. Plus see your notifications through the cover. But don't like my wallet mixed with my phone. I don't keep my phone in my back pocket and credit cards seem a little rough up against a $1,000 phone. Especially when we got Samsung and Google pay for that.
Also, edge squeeze would have been great. Missing that but that's another story.
In my honest opinion, all wallet cases are ??. I just don't want anything laying against my phone that's not a case or a screen protector. And I don't want to feel like I'm pulling a book out my pocket everytime I grab for it either. That's just MY opinion though.

consider modifying the case with microsuction instead. but it's up to you.
since samsung gear vr doesn't allow any case on the phone, it is only convenient to have a wallet case that detaches your phone easily.

My reasons for a wallet case is not for cards or cash. Just for screen/phone protection. Must be small enough to fit in my pockets, must have magnetic closure. seems most with magnets wont wirelessly charge correctly though.The Samsung LED case is a perfect fit, nice and slim. I could care less for the LED. It's not magnetic though so as soon as you fold cover back it wont stay closed. The front just springs open. You can leave it upside down overnight and that will help until next time you fold it, which is all day for me. Pull it out of my pocket and the front just springs open. If Whitestone Tempered glass weren't $60 and didnt crack once a week id use that and a regular case. They broke easy on my s8 and s9 too. Without dropping either in some cases, just mysteriously crack. I found a nice real leather folio case that seems to fit my needs perfectly. Magnetic, slim, firm and protects screen from scratches and i'm sure it will protect screen from drops better than any non otterbox or lifeproof case, unless it flys open on the way down and lands on the glass (My Samsung LED one did that, No magnet, Screen smashed) Which it shouldn't because it has a decent magnet. I have dropped phone once since getting this case and it stayed closed. Magnet works when folding the cover back as well, holds it to the back of the case nicely. Again i dont need it as a wallet, I prefer thin instead. This case smells like leather, beautiful smell. Slides in and out of pocket easy, it's not much bigger than a standard case.

So credit cards scraping against your phone screen is no big deal?

why would it scrape the phone? so far the screen protector that comes with the phone has held up well without any scratches.

My buddy has a wallet case and he cracked his screen. Of course he treats his wallet case like a real wallet and keeps all his cards and money in it. I'm sure he wasn't being very careful with it.
I liked the magnetic cover cases on curved screens just to protect the screen since screen protectors are a hassle on curved screens.
