Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

I've had a tpu case on mine for 8 months. Got it on Amazon for like $10.
We're comin from a pure power source.

Griffin Shade - this is a thin but tuff case, I upgraded from the Otterbox Commuter.

You're going to have to narrow it down. What kind of case do you want and which ones have you tried? BTW, there's an accessories section for questions like this.

I use the otterbox defender. This thing has paid for itself already and I've only had the phone a week...

Possibly, but the Thunderbolt's primary speaker is offset from center due to the front facing cam. So you may run into issues there.
The evo case will not fit, the thunderbolt is a bit fatter. I tried with my old seido case.

Yeah sorry I didn't mean to say that it would fit on our Thunderbolt but I was wishing that there was a way to convince them to make a case/holster combo set for the Thunderbolt since this is basically version 2.0

Verizon High Gloss Case for the extended battery

I don't have a picture yet but the case in the link below will be offered by Verizon online and retail stores soon. I was able to talk to someone in customer service that said the extended case was in the equipment guide for the Thunderbolt but stock wasn't available yet for it. Just a heads up for everyone. I'll post a link for the stock battery case so you can get an idea of what I am talking about. She said it looks like black is the only color for now.
http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/accessory?action=accessoryDetails&accessoryId=47488
Again the link above is for the stock battery but Verizon will have one for the Extended battery very soon.
i bought a silicone case once, but found they attract every speck of dust and lint in my pocket. plastic cases dont seem to have this problem
This is a mix of both like a tpu material

So I guess there's no way of knowing if this has a cutout for the battery door or not? I think it looks tacky as hell with a cutout.
I'll have pictures soon. But the screen shot from in the store has the battery door covered. Should have it Thursday or Friday.

So they are selling the one for extended battery.

It can be ordered. I posted the sku that u can give the Verizon Rep to order it.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
I've been waiting for a case like this to get the extended battery. Now I'm not sure if I'm going to wait and see if some sort of slim extended battery comes out or just get the extended battery that is out now and this case, decisions decisions.

I don't think Trident sells the silicon separately. You should contact them and ask if you can set up a special purchase.
If you check the Site you can see they sell the silicone by itself for other products so I'm guessing they will for the s3 aegis!

Otterbox defender

My local sprint store has the defender now so if youve been waiting for it you might want to give them a call. Fits perfect but does add bulk to the phone. I took the screen protecter off also because im using a zagg hd.

So with the defender being huge and a rubber shell how is pocket access?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
just got mine last night. sprint store was supposed to call me when they got them in. glad i found this thread.
For those that are lucky enuff to have found these in stores near by, were they all black or did they have any of the other two colors? The guy at my Sprint store is supposed to call me when they get them and I want the Glacier one, but all I have heard was people finding black ones so far. If black's the only one being shipped I'll end up going with that if I find it first since I can't stand carrying this phone around without it being protected.
Two things for me is no way will I pay that for a piece of plastic and rubber. Plus with that wide of a case my thumb wouldn't be able to reach the opposite side of the screen. No single hand tapping anymore.
Think I am just going to get a cheapo rubber case to give me some grip on the back.

A case described as "ultra thin air" as an alternative case for the Otterbox defender?
Sent from my KFTT using xda premium

What case are you using

I haven't had any luck finding a case yet in the mall and the cases at the store were ugly. I hate shopping amazon bc the pics never show the real quality and protection. Just curious as to what people are using as far as brands thus far. I love the feel but I need to protect this $708 investment!

Diztronic high gloss clear TPU, probably the same one as rick. Works great.
I am using Tech21 smoke/grey one. Though it was my only choice, it fits just right and buttons aren't that hard to press. (Hint: press home button to wake the phone)

I got this cheap s view case from ebay
no it does not have all the functions nor does it use the back plate thing
It is just a filler till I get a better one
I just received my Spigen case - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DCICXMU/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Fitment is good, it adds minimal thickness to the device, and seems like it will add just enough protection to make me happy. I had a similar case on my Note II and was very happy.

Make sure to update us when you get it. I'm really thinking about that case, but $25 seems steep.
Hate buying these thin devices and bulking them up. Had a similar snap on polycarbonate on my last phone.

I went cheap and got this one in clear

under 4 bucks, hopefully it'll last
decided to go with a cheap TPU for just under $2 shipped from ebay, I prefer TPU over the minimalist cases because it protects the top and bottom of the phone.

Using the diztronic clear frost. Lightweight and provides enough protection. Also its slightly see through so you can see the back of the phone

Another Diztronic user. I posted in the other thread as well, but it looks like it got buried. Reposting in case others are interested. I'm also waiting for a Spigen Neo Hybrid to ship.
Fit and finish is excellent.

A little off topic, but care to share your lockscreen app/theme?
And I actually purchased that same Diztronic case thanks to your post in the other thread. I figured it was pretty simplistic enough to get me through as I wait for my neo hybrid.
