Not for sale yet!
Hopefully this sells before my 30 day return window is up for the Seidio Innocase that I just bought. Otterbox FTW!
Nice, thanks for posting! I've been waiting for this one.
I knew there was a reason I didn't buy a case yet
What's funny is that they probably got sick of all the emails asking if they were making one for the Captivate so they posted the update just to shut us up!
Nice! Can't wait to get this

Woot! Been waiting, like everyone else, and now my dreams have been answered. Now, if only they start selling this, say tomorrow...!
What do you guys think about the lower priced one? I think it looks pretty sweet. Not to bulky.

im stuck with the body glove right now...
im ordering the commuter as soon as its available! it looks gooooooood.
Do these cases have a built in screen protector?
I'm pretty sure if its the same as other otterboxes the commuter comes with a separate screen protector, the defender has it built in to the case
Cool thx for the response. I really hate trying to get those screen protectors on. They never go on right so I guess I'll have to go with the defender. Thanks again!
beware though you may run into a crazy amount of air bubble issues if you use the defender with no screen protector or the wrong one. I tried the defender on my girlfriends iphone4 over an invisible shield and it was horrible. anyone have experience with this? finding the right combination?
dont use invissheld with otterbox

Well damn, that's why I hate screen protectors because i almost always get air bubbles. I guess the built in screen protector is not the solution.
just get one that is anti-fingerprint anti-glare and it will work just fine with the otterbox defender
Hi,
I've been searching the internet for a decent screen cover for the i5801. I came across these:
Vikuiti ADQ27
Vikuiti CV8
Invisible Shield -> for 5800, so will it fit nicely?
I'd want the phone as protected as possible, so I don't really mind a higher price if the quality is worth it. But basically it all looks the same to me
What should I get and why? All suggestions are welcome!
Thank you very much
so nobody knows some very good screen cover or so for the i5801 specifically?
I'll prolly just go for the cheapest stuff then... 2€ for 6 of em. Read about it that there is almost no difference between the protection anyways.
I have a mirror screen protection for me gt-i5800 its a good wan.

I bought from ebay. Search there. There are always goof stuff that anyone can afford.
Ye I eventually bought a black silicone case +1 screen cover from cheapgadget store on ebay. It was 3,5€ with shipping incl. Ill let u know how it is when I get my phone and case
Sometimes cheap screen covers are really hard to apply so buy a bundle pack or a few

Hi,
So I got my phone today and applied the cover and case. I've got no complains at all. Things went very smooth! I can only recommend the vendor: fast and clean delivery, nice package.
About the package: the silicone case fits nicely and feels durable enough. It has the holes for cables on the right spot.
The screen cover was applied easily by following these instructions:

Just look them up on google, and see where they are cheapest (ebaystores probably)
I bought none of those. I bought the cheapest case I could find and 2 screenguards, and I've got nog complaints (read my other posts)
Do we actually need a scratch guard for our phones? Or can we do without one? :\
It may have a scratch resistant screen but it's not unvulnerable.
I use a cheap protector(cut for sg3) and a gray gel case. Baught from ebay for about 3$.
Everyone who saw my phone can't figure out that there is a case!

I had Ghost Armor on my Gnex and loved it. I don't want to go back to a case, so I've been looking around for protective skins for the SIII. I'm not interested in screen protectors, just full body skin protection.

Does anyone else find that the full body clear skins always end up peeling at the edges, especially with rounded/curved phones (like the s3)

That's a case, not really a skin.
Phantomskinz chromatics skins are pretty good. They don't have any for the GS3 yet. But I got the carbon fiber look about two years ago for my HTC Glacier and it looked and held up pretty good. Installation was a little tricky, but its worth it IMO.

Also, Zagg is available now.
Ok, I updated the OP....
The best thing about some of these
The price? nope
The designs? nope
The protection? nope
Reading the descriptions and imagine you're looking at a condom ad.

That is very tempting at that price!
The full body especially, but I dont think the slim hard back case would fit with it so I might just get the screen
I have read that after over a year the glue can turn yellowish
Here is some links for some cases. I had a hard time finding a case.

Waiting for the one on the link below to arrive, I have a black TPU case from ebay on now but has the top right corner exposed since is for the international G Pro (TV antenna) so lookout when buying cases for that. I want maximum protection so share if you find. The case on the link below is the bulkiest I have been able to find. I know Incipio has some coming soon, they have one I like on att.com site but only in white/pink.

Seidio needs to get on board and make some cases. As well as otterbox. I hate this phone for the sole reason of no 3rd party vender support. I always had a seidio case on my phones.
I ordered the Nillkin Ultra Thin Matte Cover Case. I think the dimpled texture on the back of it will make the phone a little less slippery. I'll post pics after I get it.
I received the Black Folio Case free for pre-ordering the phone. Regular price is $50.
http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/accessories/cases/sku6610235.html
It's basically a front cover attached to a new back cover, replacing the stock back cover altogether.
The Good: It looks great and covers the screen well. It contains cutouts so you can see the home button LED and talk on the phone with it closed. Having the screen turn off when the cover is closed is nice. I understand installing the case enables wireless charging but am unable to verify this as I don't have a wireless charger.
The Bad: Zero protection on any other part of the phone. In addition, folding the case around so I can hold the phone in one hand causes the cover to stick out slightly past the edge of the phone itself, so it can dig into the fingers after awhile.
Summary: It's a nice case for free, but I wouldn't pay $50 for it.
Whoa, the 3rd case in the op that I just ordered. Be careful, amazon doesn't tell you the shipping cost!!!! I got charged 5 freaking bucks!!! Not buying on amazon again.

How about finger prints and oils? I just applied my xtreme guard and the only thing I like about it is how it doesn't get very oily and wipes off easily. All 3 of my skins were defective after waiting a week for them though so I'm looking to replace them.

That was almost certainly a third party seller. When you buy something on amazon, check the "ships from and sold by" section. I bet it doesn't say amazon on both of those.

I'm using a no-name brand off ebay and it's just as good (if not better) than the MIME I was using; they look and feel exactly the same. The MIME broke in a week, but this new one has lasted me over a month so far and looks just as good as the day I bought. A fraction of the cost too. Only $7 on ebay. Something to consider if you don't want to empty your wallet

This is the seller, although I don't see the tempered glass in his store anymore

But it was one of the really cheap $7 or $8 protectors and there's no difference between it and the $25 to $40 ones.
