[Q] Case with protection/quick removal - Galaxy S II Accessories

Hey SGS2 peeps,
I'm looking for a case that isn't too bulky but provides reasonable protection. My other need is that the case comes off easy enough because I have the Samsung car mount and will be using it on a daily basis.
Thanks!

Have you tried any bumpers yet. ???

Mesh Case provide quite good protection and it's very cheap. Now I'm using SGP Neo Hybrid in white and it's protect the screen better and it looks awesome

Has anyone tried the Momax case?
I have a new requirement, must not have a cut out for tv antenna. I have an international version of the phone and have no use for the extra cutout.
Thanks

Body glove makes good quality stuff, a little bulky though. I bought a body glove case for my wife's stratosphere. Personally don't like button cutouts though.

Well I did not buy the BodyGlove with the idea of maximum protection from drops
I think I was drawn into purchasing the BodyGlove case for
Overall finish, materials used to construct the case which provides a one of a kind look and feel with in my situation out weighs overall protection.
I realize if I want to protect my device from random drops I would of purchased an Outterbox Defender or Commuter
Thanks

Cheaper Cases

I have been looking at a Zenus Galaxy Note Masstige Color Edge Diary case found here for my phone. Although listed at around $40 dollars, which will be around £35 pounds once converted and V.A.T is added on at a rough guess. Yet, when I go to pay through Paypal, it lists the product as $80 dollars which is just ridiculous! Anyone know of some cheaper alternatives to this case?
i wouldn't pay £35 for a non leather case mate, although the zenus do looks pretty good!
this one gets good reviews on XDA:

cheap too, got mine coming this week
Yeah, Id never pay a lot of money for a case, Its unjustified
Ive just got this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400300649839?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 I really like the cases that double up as a wallet
I really don't need a case which doubles as a wallet

Always end up with loads of cases for my phones, so much choice. But a few days ago my Zenus Masstige Block Folio Case arrived & I think I will stick with this one.
Not real leather but has a smooth soft finish that feels great to hold. The vulnerable elastic band to hold the case closed has been improved by adding a tab to it, so that it slips over the plastic clip easily. Not cheap but very well made. Available in Black, Brown & Red.
Here are some reviews ;-

"good" and "cheap" dont often work well together. it's either a cheap case that might protect your phone when you drop it or its a good case that you spent $20+ on. if you're going for looks and dont want to spend a lot, there's thousands of cases. otterbox cases are too bulky for me. i always use case mate's "tough case" on my galaxy phones. good luck

Thanks man. I was looking for something rather slim and durable. I also hate bulky cases.

thats why i only roll with the tough case. slim, durable, good grip. a good slim case is hard to come by
I bought a case for two bucks on amazon. Plastic case, with a kickstand. I love it. I will see if I can find the link. Came with a "stylus" too.

Cheap and gets the job done. Not too bulky also it depends where you buy the case from...Amazon is cheapest and fastest to avoid the stores markup.
An otterbox commuter is about $20 on Amazon and works well for me.
A clear backed bumper hybrid case is what I use when I want smaller and they are cheap and work well for protection for me but you need a well raised front face bumper to protect the screen though
try ebay or amazon
i prefer ebay, if you want cheaper cases
and in my opinion, they are pretty good, especially the gel ones

Hunterf Clone

Hey guys I was looking on casefanatic and saw a case called the KXX Ultra Thin Metal Case (Ulta Fin on the website) for $29, I was just wondering if anyone else has seen this and has actually bought it. Personally it looks better than the hunterf and is half the price, and I haven't had a case for my SIII since I bought it so I was wondering if it is a good buy or should I stay away from it.
I dont know about the case you mentioned but ebay has hunterf like case for $1x
Got a link?

What kind of case most people like??

Just wonder what kind of cellphone case most people like to use...TPU? hard? flip? frosted? glossy? black? color? transparent?
I stick to slim hard cases all along..I don't think their protection is less than those more bulky TPU cases.. (ooppss..sorry to TPU lovers..)
what is your choice?
I just ordered a UAG case for my s4. Had one on my s3 and loved it. Great quality for the price. But does not protect your phone if it falls face first onto a gravel road haha.

Bulky TPU case is not my type too. but seem many people are drawn to their protective image..
slender ones with nice colors are my choices

the ironic thing, the accessories section isn't even being used or these such threads aren't moved there.
that being said, I like the Otter Box defender series. too bad I needed one ASAP and I couldn't get the blue one, because not only is it available but I was able to snag OBs on Amazoon nowadays for 20% off regular price...
i like my phone without a case
if youre going to buy a case for the s4 it has to be the spigen sgp neo hybrid white/black
if you want a higher quality aluminum one then buy the iphone style one that offers full drop protection, add a spigen glast screen protector and your good to go :good:
I needed a case and an otterbox reseller is next to my T-Mobile store. Go figure

I bought the Spigen Neo Hybrid but it made the phone too big for me so I gave it to my son.
I actually like my Samsung S case the best.
Here's a list. I'm using ghost armor.

DUALTEKK all the way!!
Never had a better case (for any phone) than the dualtekk for S4, such modern design and so solid, even like how it sounds when I drop my phone
I got the Otterbox Commuter, I love it.

Spigen Neo Hybrid! )
I have a tech21 frosted gray case. The one with the orange strips built in. I love the way these cases look. I also have one on my iPhone 5. I don't know how effective the orange strips really are though.
