I will stick with my $8 TPU case. I have been nothing but impressed with it.

they now say the kraken is NOT coming for our phone...
Wow iPhone style pricing. Too rich for my blood, generic TPU case works for me too.
My wife has the Aegis case for her (my old) Vibrant. I LOVE the fact that the power button and volume keys become MUCH more usable than they are in a TPU case.
I'll be getting one of these for sure so I can stop fumbling to press the buttons through the case.
Even Cheaper!!!
I found the Trident Aegis for $24.99 shipped! At cyclopscase.com. Check it out...

The quality of a Trident case is obvious as soon as you hold it, it's definitely not solely about looks like so many iPhone cases. Better protection and build quality than anything except Ballistic IMO (based on the one I used with my Evo 4G).
I love TPU cases as well, and I switch between several nice ebay TPU versions and a silicone one currently, but I'll be getting either this or the Ballistic. You really can't compare the protection it offers to a TPU case. But then again, you may not need that level of protection (and the bulk that comes with it). I consider it cheap insurance.

I only saw a case for the samsung galaxy II, not one for the samsung epic touch 4g.... there is a difference as you can see in camera cutout etc...

I've looked around but can't find a belt clip that this will snap into. Does anyone know of one that work with this?

The blue case is very tempting.. how much bulk does it add compared to something like the Case Mate Tough?

But if you go to cyclopscase.com and click products--- Aegis Cases --- and scroll down to epic touch...
Just getting stock supply this week, pix aren't up yet. Mine is shipping soon...
The easy assumption to make is that Trident has decided NOT to produce the Kraken due to what they see as a shortage of demand. Therefore, I suggest parties interested in the case make their desire clear to Trident on Trident's Facebook page. The alternative is to buy the Aegis and wait for the Kraken to be released for our phones once enough demand has been drummed up, but who wants to spend $30 on a "temporary" case?

Bummer, that the case on Amazon is gone, with no back in stock date...
But, I found this one on ebay; looks kinda different, but for 15 bucks. looks like it will protect the phone and connections well!

various colors available; I got a red one..

I hope thats not the link to the one you bought, because that one is for the AT&T version of the phone.
This one here is the Epic Touch version. http://www.ebay.com/itm/BLACK-IMPAC...ccessories&hash=item3f10781dba#ht_1904wt_1110
So I was looking through eBay looking for a case and I came upon this
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Defender-Ha...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item3f1a9d89d8
Hmmm for a dollar I'll buy it for a rainy day what do ya think?
I know it's for the I9300 but the dimensions are all the same.
EDIT mod please delete apparently it's a bait and switch when you select a color for the case price goes to $10

The styluses are 99 cents, the actual cases are $9.99. Try again.

If you have a flea market anywhere near you...just go there.
This case is very very very popular at most flea markets and sells for anywhere from $5 -10 dollars.
If anyone needs one, PM and we can arrange it some how...I will get it for you.
I had that case, and it was okay. Didnt like the size of the lip that surrounds the edges of the screen, made home button pressing annoying. A piece on the kickstand eventually broke and was hard to keep attached. And it added a bit of bulkyness. Otherwise the case was fine, but i switched to another eventually.
don't get that, the plastic shell at the front, has protruding plastic which is quite sharp, so with any pressure applied on the case from the front it will cut your screen protector or leave marks on your gorilla glass. I wasted 2£ on that lol

Is there a case on Amazon or some other marketplace that has pockets in the rear to hold cards and cash? I'm not a fan of the flip cover case.

I bought a little pocket that adheres to the phone or a case from bed, bath, and beyond. I think it was $5 for two of them. Fits 3-4 cards. I really liked them. I'll find a link and post again.

Pretty close to what I have, though Bed, Bath, and Beyond had multiple colors.
Hey guys, I just find out Maxboost has a VIPU reviewer program. Looks like they will send you free tempered screen protectors, cases, car chargers. My friend told me he has received a 10000mah battery pack from them. I just signed up and claimed my first review sample. Don't know if you guys are interested but I think you should check it out. Here is the link to their website: http://www.maxboostpower.com/vipu/
Thanks for the tip!

all these cases have cut outs for the rear cover eject button.
The Ringke onyx case does not have the cut out but yes I do have some caes that have the cut out.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01K5I9CB4
The Ringke Fusion has an indent where the button is but it doesn't go all the way through. My guess is that some manufacturers were too lazy to just make it as an indent instead of an all out hole.
I think they probably thought it was a port when receiving specifications for the phone prior to release.

My Ringke Fushion (smoked black bumper) doesn't have an indentation...the button can be seen through the case though.

It looks to be the cheap Chinese mass produced cases for the most part. Probably they made cases based on renders and measurement specifications without knowing the functions of the phone or having the phone in hand. I'm always leery of those because how good can the case be if the designers didn't have the phone in hand to create it.

Might want to look again next time you have it off the phone. It's definitely there. Otherwise, the pop would be attempting to pop off.

I can see the "imprint" on the inside of the case where the opening would be, but mine barely shows and not really noticeable viewing forms the outside.
