Amzer Jelly case from Amazon

Just got this case today. The case feels so cheap and loosely. All I wanted to say is I don't like it and won't recommend anyone getting it.
But I will live with it though.

Finally a review with pics on the amzer for the Vibrant... I've been wondering about this one for a while, finally your review with some good clear pics have pushed me not to get the Amzer and get the Tmobile case instead.

Yea I got the amzer jelly case as well it was okay but felt a little too cheap it seemed like the phone could come out very easily cause the mold wasn't even that great.
I also didn't think they'd brand the crap out of it like that, the pictures didn't show that on their site.
I wouldn't get anything from amzer anymore because I also got the screen protectors and that wasn't really an exact fit neither. I sent an email regarding that to them and no reply.

That's too bad. I had had high hopes for the Amzer products. Hopefully their TPU stuff is a little better.

Got the black slicone from Tmobile today and I am happy. It doesn't get the dust like the one I bought from ebay from China also has a good snug fit also not like the ebay one. Funny thing though the Tmobile one says made in china.... but it is a better quality silicone.

THANK GOD you made a review almost bought it getting the tmo case instead

Good thing I didn't get this and stuck with the T-Mobile case, lol. I guess you really get what you pay for. Thanks for the heads up!

Arrived today as well. I'm returning it. Garbage, this is not what they had pictured when I ordered it.

So I read about 50 pages of forums before buying from amazon.. just got white and purple jelly from amzer .. these are nice with no loose color and working for my vibrant. Also, the purple shown in the picture is a lot darker than the purple that arrives, which is really a very light purple. Camera, speaker cutouts are perfect, volume toggle and power button could use a little more pronounced rubber, but all in, it's working great. am also waiting for luxe argyle case .. these got lot of praise on amazon

Got my amzer jelly and amzer luxe argyle cases today. I will try and take some pics when I get home tonight. The jelly will likely get sent back. It's not what I ordered and it's not nearly as nice as the argyle.
The jelly has a thinner rubber that's loose on the sides. The argyle is a smoother, thicker and harder type of rubber. The fit is very tight on the phone and the cutouts are perfect. The rubber looks and feels smooth, but it's not a slippery smooth. It is tacky enough to stay put when you have it in your hand or set it on a desk, but it's not tacky enough that it sticks to the insides of you pockets and grabs all the lint. So far I'm impressed.

I've been using the T-Mobile case I got when the phone came out. I love it comes out of my pocket without sticking just hope they make good hard cases or come out with more cool colors.

I agree this silicone case blows...worst silicone case I have ever bought. I bought it a couple of weeks ago and my Vibrant floats inside the case badly. Also, the volume and power button extrusions are flush and difficult to locate. Poor thought in design. Score: -5

I have the argyle tpu case..and the TPU is more stiff than the chinese tpu I currently have on now.

I bought the Amzer from Amazon as well. No good! Too loose. I has already ordered a 99 cent with 99 cent shipping plain black jelly on ebay and it was actually a bit tighter.

Very weird. I went to My Ebay to get the link for the 99 cent case and couldn't find it. Then I noticed a slew of emails in my box and found this...

Needless to say I got one and it was fine. Not as tight as I'd like, but much better than the Amzer.
An _identical_ looking one is here, albeit at a much higher price.

I ordered this from eBay the other week, so much cheaper and makes the phone feel better on the hand:

TPU Gel cases worked great for my X10 and I have ordered one for the Arc that should be arriving tomorrow

Did someone find a soft pouch like the one from Nexus One? i like that one

I ordered a white/transparent gel case from ebay and it fits nice, but the flash of the camera is unusable because the photo's with flash will have a white layer..
I guess it's the same problem like the white iphone 4.

ok i just recieved this one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220726792405 and damn it's bad the phone doesn't fit into it, you see the speaker and the camera. the Nexus one fit's perfectly though -_-

I just received mine today andere it's aan very snug fit. I'll also post a picture with my phone in it.

I don't use any protective skins on the screen even though SE bundles one as it reduces reponsiveness (or so I've experienced with my GFs X8, my Nexus One and others). It also adds too much resistance for my liking.
I don't use a case or pouch either. It's just too much of a hassle to drag it in and out. Some semi-hard cases scratch the phone after many inserts and pull outs and then you're back to square one.
If it gets a ding or a scratch, who cares? It's may be worth a bit less when I sell but I can't be bothered about that. It's more important that when I use it it both looks it's best (and that means no skins) and that its ready to go the second it's out of my pocket, and that means no case or pouch.

Zenus 'Prestige' Carbon Series Stand / Case

Well, I just got this case today. It comes in black or white. I got the black one. I'd post pictures but my grandkids are here and I won't be able to do it until tomorrow.
My mini-review:
Pros:
Fit and Finish is beautiful.
Very light. Case and Tablet weighs 1lb 12.6ozs
Very thin.
(Added) The edges of the screen are not covered. Like the Samsung case there are 3 clips to hold the TAB. I don't like the way most ofthe other cases cover the border of the screen with "PU" or leather.
Cons:
TOO EXPENSIVE. It may be "worth" $85 + shipping for it's quality but for what it is it's just too much money
TOO EXPENSIVE
"Stand" is only a single position and the way it works is you have to unsnap the bottom half of the tablet from it's perfectly fitting snap on cover and rest it on the "latch" that holds locks the case closed. I have to believe that eventually the snaps will lose their tension and not tightly hold the Tablet. May be wrong there but it seems to be.
Must be opened to access USB connection.
TOO EXPENSIVE
I have six months to return it so I'm not worried.

I looked at that case but since it was seemingly 2x as thick and made from "synthetic leather" (either plastic or "PU" not sure which) I chose the other. I probably would prefer the Samsung over that one since the Samsung is very thin and lite. Also don't like the "hand strap" since it reminds me of a ping-pong paddle.
However if the quality is just as good it would be a good alternate choice for those who don't mind the thicker vinyl case.

Cut the price in half and I'll buy.

I sent it back for a refund. Too expensive and required "unsnapping" the bottom 2 clips holding the TAB to "stand" it.
Well made and excellent fit and VERY light .... but not worth it to me.

Aw, that's kinda upsetting. It sure looked like a nice case, and for some reason I'm a sucker for carbon fiber styling, but it's sad to hear about those downsides.
If nothing else, thanks for being a guinea pig on that! It was hard enough to justify that kind of money on a simple case even if it was perfect. The USB slot issue is the killer, really.

How did you go about sending it back for a refund. I'm about to do the same with mine. My initial impressions were that it was a good case but after having it a couple days I'm ready to return it and get something cheaper that is probably a better quality.

I purchased through Amazon. I went into my Amazon account and sent the "seller" a message, They have a 14 day return policy. You can also contact them through their website but if you purchased from Amazon you should email through there as Amazon keeps records of the contacts and you are protected.

i was thinking about getting this case but real expensive ... waiting on your pics ...
has anyone found any other carbon fiber cases?

Then you will be waiting for a long time because as I stated in the previous message I sent it back.
BTW, it was NOT carbon fiber, it's a vinyl fabric.

These Zenus cases look pretty slick, but also very pricey. What other cases do you all recommend?

Do they take payment now or in the 1-2 weeks it's expected to ship? Gonna work out to around £25 to get one to the UK but it's definitely tempting. I'm not usually one to use cases but this looks very low-profile. I hope it fits in the car dock. Very much doubt it though.

No by the looks of pics that I've seen, the phone can only fit in the dock with no case. That's the only reason why I'm probably not going to get a case for this phone as I intend to use the dock on a regular basis.

I wonder if this is prone to turning yellow like most clear cases. Just a heads up that the crystal clear is a fingerprint magnet whereas the soft clear isn't :good:

Case looks nice. Looks like they have two choices. Frost/Soft and Hard/Clear. Almost tempted to get both.
I already have 4 cases now before the phone The Rock Thin Case in Silver and White and the Nillkin in Black and White.
This one looks even thinner. Have the case early helped me get a real feel for the phones dimensions. I really like the size of it.
I would like to have a very very thin aluminum case with the same aluminum finish. So it looks like the back of the phone. That way I can scratch it and not feel bad and keep the same look.
I think they should check their description box. They still have iPhone 5 instead of HTC.

Spigen cases are beautiful. I have an ultra capsule (soft rubber case- i dont think it is tpu) on my SGS2 which works wonderfully. The only problems i have with this case are:
a) no front lip which leaves the screen/screen protector prone to scratches when face down.
b) its a hard case which means no impact absorption
My brother had this case on his HTC One X, and when it fell on its side, the screen/digitizer cracked straight from where the charging port is (on the side for the one x) as it is an exposed area. SGP steinheil screen protectors have unmatched quality. I have had them on 5 android phones throughout my family, but i think ill be going for a cruzerlite tpu case because of their impact absorption, and just getting the steinheil protectors. I look forward to AFN's review to see if anything has changed with this particular case, but my hopes arent high. Sadly, Spigen informed me that they have no plans for an ultra capsule for the HTC One.
Just my thoughts...

Seems legit
Figured that I wouldnt be happy with any other case though after seeing it so may as well just bend over.

Me too! Love these cases.

You are telling me about it the second I found out is the second I bought it lol!

me too! ordered in a blink of an eye

Just shipped getting mine monday! will post pics!

I'll be ordering this within the week. This will be my third case and hopefully my last

I can't wait to see some pics. I like how small the included case is, and I don't want the phone to be even bigger. If this case doesn't add too much bulk, it's be nice to have a little extra protection.

Is it a hybrid case? The pictures make it seem like ours just a soft case. I prefer a hybrid (soft case with shell)

Just got it so far button feel very responsive its a soft-case but feels very sturdy not flimsy whatsoever

My wife has the hybrid case for her S7, I got the Spigen on Saturday and mulling over sending it back. The shape is slim, yet protective and just enough lip around the screen and the camera lens. Overall, I'm just not happy with the texture when I pick it up.

I had this case for my P9 and loved it. Hope will be avail in the UK soon.

Got mine yesterday, had one on my Nexus 6P and loved it..... Love it on my Axon 7 too!
It's not that flimsy rubber, or lose fitting.... it's stiff, fits tight and perfect.
I'm SOOOOOooooo glad this case finally came to the A7!

In terms of size, how does it compare to the included case. I realize the included case is minimal protection at best but I like that it doesn't completely disrupt the lines of the phone.
Thanks

I wanna get one but it's not even close to being worth the $20 they're asking for it.

Better built than any other case out (to date), IMO. And doesn't feel "sloppy" on the phone.
