I'm kind of a case junkie. I think I'll order one.

Yeah. Already ordered. Hope they're worth every penny

Hahaha me too. I bought another case for .75 both white...looks amazing...so ready to get it.

Shweet always wanted my dinc2 to be white or red or blue.

Well, the screen protector is about as cheap as it gets and the case looks cool but leaves a space between the battery door of the phone and the back of the case. I assume this is because of the raised lenses on the camera and the inability to contour around it for cheap.
Though this case might work for an extended battery! I would love it if someone tried this case on their extended battery cover and reported back.
Edit: Now I realize the whole raised part of the back has space. Weird. Doesn't fit the phone right. There is space between the case and the camera lenses, the speaker, all of it.

im looking for a metal back cover as well. preferably a white one
There are only cases, but no back covers that are metal. It would only damage your phone if you get the battery cover off of it with metal.

I am hoping they release the ZAGG leather skins like they have for other phones. Once that is applied, nothing else is needed!

have you really had a SGS3 yet to say that you dont like it??? Geez.... have some patience and you might find that its much better than it looks. Besides getting a metal or alloy piece will be much more scratch prone and that is not something you would like to have!
Alright calm yer beans I was just curious, like im sure many others are.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
sure, im curius as well, to see why half the reviewers of the S3 say the rear cover is brilliant and nothing like the photos show, and the other half insist that its 'plasticky'
then i can decide about covers. However i have already preordered some a couple of cases to go with the phone anyway as im sure it will be a while before they will ever make proper rear covers to replace.

Hmmm, not a fan tbh. I've been using mine with no cover for 2 days now and I'm loving it! So thin and light. Though I'm going to order a carbon fibre cover (to sit over existing cover) just in case I drop it or someone else does.

Here are couple close-ups of the replacement covers for anyone that's interested.
A metal case would really screw up your reception, and stop a lot of things like GPS and NFC from working. Take a look at the old transformers

Otterbox DEFENDER review

Time to get this case reviewed right?
Honestly, if i had to choose between this and the commuter i would pick this one up. Feels really solid and after a 10 mile hike at zion with some drops , it proved its point.
enjoy

Yeah, u forgot one thing though. The builtin screen protector sucks. I just took mine off yesterday and added a best skin ever screen protector with my defender case and its awesome! Perfect combination.

That happen to mine, Within in a month mine was real loose, good thing I bought it at a local att store so they replaced it, had the new one for a few months and it's not loose at all. Maybe they had defects on some.

When you say a new case, do you mean holster/case? I was walking and my holster caught something and the clip broke off. The case is also squeaky and the lip of the case is getting loose and is starting to expose the plastic edges.

Cool. I'll fire off an email to them then. I have my zoogue cases and will probably order a UAG, commuter, or ballistic to hold me over.
Are you guys taking the case on and off frequently or just naturally happens?
And by proof, is the original packaging good enough?
Yeah the corners don't have a rail like the sides to snap into. They're sending me a complete otterbox to replace mine. Maybe they have fixed the design.

[$20] PureGear DualTek Extreme Impact Case with 3M EAR for Samsung Galaxy S3

Not sure if this has been posted before but I finally found this case for under $20!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008MB4SNY/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
Look at the seller and another for grey and white versions!
All under $20 instead of 30-40
posting up a pic for those that are curious about how it looks on a pebble blue phone.
thankyou for posting pics!
Might be my new case thanks for the post.
Although I am very attached to my kraken
What is the 3m ear?
It's the bumpers on the 4 edges, they are a soft silicone to absorb drop shock, they are removable

Your entitled to it, I already own a otterbox defender but I wanted something a little slimmer for looks. I was debating between this case and the UAG but I found this one better looking, I didn't like the design of the UAG.

I have the same setup as the pictures posted. I love this case and all its great protection, and it really feels great in hand. However the rubber bumpers on each corner do require a sleight of hand maneuvering the phone out of pockets.

This case actually comes with a decent screen protector. Invisible shield equivalent or better imo.

Edit: I bought mine about 2 weeks ago from CellGuru for $21 shipped in 3 business days.
I have been waiting for the White to go back in stock at Amazon. I didnt want to buy from a 3rd party.
I went ahead and ordered the Black today and I will decide if I am going to cancel the White order when I get the Black one tomorrow.
I hate waiting just to find out I don't like something.:cyclops:
I had an Amazon return last week. It took 4 days from the time I gave the UPS guy my return until the money was back in my account. can't beat that if you have Prime.

I need a screen protector that covers the entire front of the phone, so that nothing is exposed. I work machining metal and would easily mess up any uncovered area. I'm still using my Otterbox defender for work, I want to use this case at all times but not until I find a screen protector that covers the entire front of the screen.

Finally bit the bullet and picked up this case. Do you guys think the front lip offers protection comparable to a defender?

The front lip is slightly smaller than the defender, but still offers very good protection.

This. Aside from the average screen protector provided, this case is sexier, thinner, and more ergonomic in my hands than any of the otterboxs. The smooth matte finish is fantastic with great grips on the side to make sure you have a nice grasp of your phone.
I think eventually, since this screen protector does not curve at the edges, nor does it completely cover the screen, I will purchase a higher grade protector for that final bit of comfort. This is a fantastic case that guards the phone at every angle.
My heart still wants a UAG though..

Aluminum/chrome battery cover

i just recieved this aluminum battery cover for my s3 and it looks amazing!
but..it did make my phone a tad bit thicker so my old case doesnt fit anymore
i dont mind that it made it a tad thicker it actually feels better now in the hands
is there any good cases out there that would fit for this? my idea was to buy the
aluminum battery cover then buy a bumper but now im worried that the bumper might
not fit right as well considering my phone is more thicker now
if anybody has any pictures of any cases/bumper that will fit on my phone pls post
some on this thread would gladly appreciate it
Most any full TPU case will probably fit.
Almost no slim/open style cases though. Like the Rock case style probably won't fit.
Where did you get that? I like that!

I have one in red! It looks really nice and I love the look of the metal. The only issue I have is the silicone part isn't the most snug fit and sometimes an edge of the phone might come out of the case when I took it out of my pocket. I don't think the whole phone would come out or anything..I'm just picky.

Thank you for the pictures. Would you recommend it?
Sent from my One using xda app-developers app
If you're looking for protection, I probably wouldn't recommend it. There really isn't much of a lip over the screen and the top corners seem to slip off a little too easily. It's not like the whole case would accidentally fall off though since the metal part helps to keep it somewhat rigid.
If you're looking for style, then go for it. It's definitely a unique case.
Heads up, if you actually buy it from Mindplar.com it's $45 with shipping and comes with an assumingly cheap battery bank. A little bit cheaper.

This case does indeed look night, I never spend this much on a case but I might have to, maybe I will wait for a few other reviews.
These are pretty sharp looking. I have only been using a sleeve, but might have to consider this. I think Eddie Van Halen would approve of the red one.

Nice case !
I seen 1 million cover for htc one but i never seen this one before ! thanks , probably i'll purchase this , seems really good
Just got mine in the mail. Came with a free 1000 mAh power bank.
Didn't realize that the IR port was covered, no big deal though. I can use a nail to put a hole in there.
Kind of disappointed that the "metal" part is glued on, and it doesn't wrap around the lip like other hybrid cases.
The case itself is very slim. If you have a glass screen protector it wouldn't wrap around it. Looks really great in hand though.

So looking at the pictures previously posted, is the rubber very...rubbery? lol like the ports seem very loosely cut (charging port) and the edges seem like very rounded. I am used to the UAG case and think the cuts and lines are so sharp that this case (while looking pretty rad) has some variances in quality
am i right?
