$6.29 TPU - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Pretty dang good!
Probably wouldn't work with a screen protector as the sides come over the screen a bit. I don't use screen a screen protector so it's not an issue for me. As you can see all the buttons are exposed. Took about 5 days (even though he's only about 100 miles from me) to get delivered and the seller doesn't send it with a tracking number. But for the price I'm not complaining!!!
It's pretty thin and does not add too much to the phone's width. I think it's a nice balance of thickness and protection.

oh i didn't have that problem, it was just the camera window cut was a bit off, everything else was spot on
here's the review http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1349395

Wow..that case looks really slick. I'm guessing here but it might be ok with sp's. I use a d30 dual impact one and i think the lift on the sp comes from constantly putting pressure on the volume and power keys. Since they are exposed on this one that means less stress. Low investment to try....

I bought a similar case with covered buttons. I quickly fixed it with a x-acto knife. I've dropped the phone on concrete twice and not a dent or scratch on my phone so far.

Case is now road tested I've been on travel for the last two days and the case has been great, so worth the $6.
On a side note, finding the power button to unlock the screen is so much easier now with the case. Your thumb is guided to the button by the case
Same is true with the volume rocker, without the case I have a bit of a hard time telling if I'm initially pushing up or down on the volume rocker but with the case it's much easier. You can feel the case above your finger pushing up and below your finger when pushing down.

I just purchase 2 for around $11.

Just Got This Case.

EDIT; I am placing all of the pics I've posted in this thread below and removing them from later posts. This needed cleaned up plus it should make it easier for people to get a better idea of how they look when you get more than one and trade out the parts. More colors and pictures in the next few days...
I just got one of these and so far I have to say that I am impressed. The plugs that fit the earphone jack and the hdmi/micro usb ports fit remarkably well. I think that I would like it more if the colored plastic piece were a little less slippery. But it is the 'rubberized' plastic so it isn't that bad.
Another EDIT; After owning this for a few months I have to say that the plastic hasn't turned out to be that slippery at all. Just about right for staying on the dash (ish) and getting it in and out of my pocket. And I've decided it is more of a 9/10 to me. And for 10 to 12 bucks shipped, what's not to like.
Thanks garrett_tx for this Amazon link.

(Thanks to my Wife for holding the phones for me.)
Awesome, thanks for the review. I was just looking at this case maybe like 2 days ago.
Could you answer a couple of questions? -
- how good is it in protecting the phone if i drop it for example?
- how much thicker does it make the phone look?
- is it possible that the part of the case which "clips on" on the front of the phone can leave scratches?
- does it come with a screen protector?
THANKS!

Edit; Pics moved to original post.
- how good is it in protecting the phone if i drop it for example?
Not sure. Haven't dropped it yet. But as you can see it is a two piece case.
The corners are doubled up with both the plastic and silicone. So I expect the case to take the hit, and not the phone.
- how much thicker does it make the phone look?
Not much.
- is it possible that the part of the case which "clips on" on the front of the phone can leave scratches?
The silicone is between the outer case and the phone, so not a problem.
- does it come with a screen protector?
Nope.
On a side note. I am ordering another one, maybe two. I like the fact that the pieces can be mixed and matched.
Also, It is a little more difficult to use with the docks because of the flap, but not impossible.
Hope that helps.
looks like a good case and there are many cool colors combinations...
i might take one of these.
thanks!
Great review, thanks a lot. And for 2 bucks I will definitely have to try it.
Interesting. Does the silicone case feel good without the hard part?

I removed the hard part and messed with it a little. I guess it feels ok. Without the molded plastic the silicon part is pretty loose. The sides are extra loose. The ends seem ok at best. I don't think that it would just fall off or anything while holding it. But going in and out of a pocket might be a drag.
thanks I think I will buy one on amazon, price seems more interesting

Yeah, the price looks good there too. I don't have Amazon Prime so the shipping would add 3 bucks to the total. Makes it around a dollar more than the ebay price for me. Another example of why I really need to kick Netflix and get Prime...
only certain items get "prime" status, on the case i would have to pay the 3 dollars even though i have prime
just depends on the seller on amazon
I've got this case since 4days.
Good quality/price, the silicone alone feet not so good but with the hard part it's ok.
I have this case as well--white under with black gray outside--and love it. I've had it bout 2 weeks now and it's holding up quite nicely. =)

You'll like it unless you are docking the phone constantly. It will dock, just not very well. I don't dock mine much so it isn't an issue. I ended up getting the black/red and the red/black cases. Now I can mix and match, and have a totally red or black case or leave them as they are. I really dig it all red or all black tho.
so this case can be use with the HD dock too?

Well sort of... You have to hold the rubber thingy that covers the mini usb and hdmi sockets. And once you get it in the dock the fit isn't that great. Loose and wobbly, but functional. Other than that it's a great case.
I do love this case alot i have the all black one
I got an outterbox... was actually disappointed in it. I dropped my phone from about 5 feet, bobbled it till it dropped, and it ended up landing on the top side. I picked it up and saw no physical damage, but the digitizer was not responding toward the top. The notification still works, but just underneath it to about a half inch below all the way across doesn't work. Screw you outterbox!

Looks like an Otterbox knockoff, but at $12.00 shipped it's gonna be hard to pass up for those looking for a case with great shock/drop protection qualities
I ordered 2 of those from Amazon and should be here Tuesday and Friday. It seems there's a delay on the white one. I had Ballistic case before on my Amaze 4G and have dropped it from about where my pocket is and not a scratch on the phone. I hope this case offers the same protection as it cost less than $30 shipped for both.
I like how the hard shell wraps around the sides, unlike the Incipio. I don't like the giant hole for the camera, speaker, and flash. Three separate holes would be better. I guess it's cheaper to make one big hole. For that price, though, I'm interested in reading some reviews!
Thank you for the information about this case. I ordered one through the link you provided.
I received my black/black Acase today and i must say that not only it looks thin still, but also feels better protected compared to thin cases. Its like having otterbox but a lot less bulky. Still waiting for the white/black version and then I'll take pics to post.

Give us pics now! Please ? I'll order one if its nice.
The Black/Black is exactly like the one in the first post. I ordered a second one which is White/Black. I will post pictures of boths for comparison. Meantime, you can check them out here.
Looks almost exactly like the incipio case I just got but a little bit bulkier at the lip/rim.... But for 12 bucks not a bad trade off.
Hi I had a quick question my friend got the Acase for his iphone but one thing I noticed was the backing or hard shell was really slippery which made him return it in the end. Hows the hard part on this is it a smooth plastic or slippery?

Its actually quite a bit different. Look at where the outer shell wraps around the inner liner on both cases.

Yeah I see what you are talking about
I had this case for my 3D and it worked very well, it cracked around the bottom on the hard shell but this was after many falls and some abuse. I am ordered one now and recommend them, last I remember is that the back side is smooth but not all that slippery.
On a side note if anyone is getting their phone from Best Buy they have a special going on where you get a Zagg screen protector and the Platinum Case with a separate swivel holster for $40. Case alone was $35 bucks, I will try to take some pics later.
I got this the other day and really like it (especially for the price). I was a big fan of the Case-Mate Tough Case for my iPhone 4 previously and this is very comparable. The biggest thing I've noticed about this case is the indent below the home button. This is a HUGE feature to me because it makes hitting the, fairly small, home button easy.
I had stupidly bought a Ballistic Case from the store and the lip on the front was so bulky it almost ran flush with the bottom of the home button and made it really hard to press naturally. I wrote a review on amazon for the black version with pictures.
For the price this thing is awesome. I'm thinking of getting the white/black one now that's its available on amazon.

Ya, I have no problems with them. They push easily but so much so that they get hit inadvertently. It's natural enough that I didn't even think about mentioning that in the review.
Just so you guys know. The seller confirmed that there is no logo at the back whuch i prefer

[REVIEW] BoxWave DuoSuit TPU Case

Hey, just wanted to give you guys a quick look of this case I purchased recently- in case there are some of you who might be in the market for a decent looking yet inexpensive case.

Front and Back shots of the case's design. The S-Line is what separates the 2 texture/materials. BTW, I have the GSM nexus, not sure how it will fit for CDMA/LTE/ETC.
The material on the sides of the case is a bumpy rubber, allowing a more firm grip. The case material layers over the POWER and VOLUME buttons, the VOLUME side has 2 different bumps that are separated into + and - resulting in a more natural feel. The POWER button layover however, doesn't really return a tactile response when you press it, not a huge issue- more of a personal pet peeve i guess.
There is a slight lip that surrounds the front of the phone so you won't have to worry about scratching your screen if you lay it face down. The lip won't provide rock hard protection but it is better than nothing and it should be able to absorb some of the shock if it were to fall face first.
All the areas of the phone have proper cutouts
pogo pins
headphone jack
bottom mic
micro-usb slot
speaker
camera
top mic
not sure what that 2-hole area is below the speaker is, maybe its for attaching those string phone key-chains or whatever.
Overall, for the price I feel that this case isn't too bad, besides the PWR button pet peeve I have, I would recommend this case. I can't compare it to other cases yet, but maybe I will once I get the urge to purchase more cases. it can happen.
I got it off amazon for about $11 USD ...

Looks pretty sweet! I'm using (and have been using) the otterbox case for a year now and I'm looking for something different. Something that looks nice even though it may not provide as much protection as the otterbox. Unfortunately I was using a different case for about a week or so and my phone fell face first onto the street. The screen was fine, however there are some noticeable nicks on the top and sides now, so I'm looking for a cover that goes around the whole phone.
How long did it take to arrive? Does it only come in black? I see the other colors on the amazon page but it doesn't give the option to choose a different color when you try to buy, unless I missed it.
Thanks for the review!

Nice! I used to have Prime, but it expired and I don't really want to spend $39 right now to renew, so I think I'd have to do $5 extra for shipping, but i think it' worth it since Verizon charges like $25 for a plain old cover.
Thanks for adding the new colors btw! I can't decide which color to choose, lol.
These are only about a dollar on ebay.

good find but tbh not everybody uses ebay.
Just wanted to post and say that I got this case! I'd do my own review, but honestly the OP's review is spot on. The only "issue" I would bring up (as did the OP) is the power button response. Sometimes I'm not sure if I hit the power button or not, but it's really not as big of a deal as it sounds. I'd give it a 8.5/10 and it's worth a purchase if you need a case.
I also got the same color as the one in the pictures above, so I can't comment on the other colors, but you can't go wrong with any imo.
I have a similar case and looking for one for my daughter. I think I will get her this one as she wants to keep it as slim as possible and I believe they will work with the extended battery, just a bit snugger is all. Now to find a screen protector, augh, so many choices...

Looks very nice, got myself one. Almost made me want to have the black One lol
wow. 4 dollars? nothing to lose. ill post about it when i receive it.
BTW transit time from china to U.S. was an impressive 7 business days. It actually looks better in person then the picture I posted.
woah nice find! was looking for a change of case and looks like with this case, the power button is gonna be a lot easier to press than my current Belkin Sheer Grip Matte due to the fact that the plastic at the back of the case is slightly lowered where the power button is. Just ordered one for myself and one for a mate. Thanks for posting.
Thats the ONE for the ONE. I also have it and love it. Very sleek, keeps the phone looking the way it was supposed to.
here's a better picture.

Barely big enough to cover the glass screen protector. I think if it is any less then it would be without one. This doesn't add any bulge and maintains the sleek look of the phone

Correct, trim is good enough for its purpose, protection when laying flat on face. A thick trim will not protect the screen from any drop to a rock or any edge, and create a false sense of protection.
The case may feel a little loose when you first get it. I recommend heat it up with blow dryer then quickly dump it in cold water to tighten it a bit.
Does it affect the camera flash? The cutout looks close to the flash. I had a Kays case that had a similar opening and the flash reflected glare into the photos.
I just bought a similar case from Amazon which I prefer because it's transparent. However, your pics gave me an idea on how to mod the case because I don't like how there is not a cutout for the volume rocker. I started to make this mod today actually, but one of your pics shows me that I should cut further towards the back of the case which will give my fingers proper room to hit the volume rocker instead of having to use my finger nails :good:

This is pretty much the same as the one I have and also similar to the Poetic series. I have a cheap ebay one that works fine. Gives it a wider profile when holding it in your hand. Pretty much the same width as a Seidio Dilex case. Buttons are responsive, you can feel a click, not as pronounced as a naked case, but you do have some feedback. Protection is pretty good for what it is. I've dropped it at work a few times and the phone has come out of it unscathed.
bought it on ebay and waiting for it to come, probably another week or two
Received two in the mail after about two weeks. To be honest they feel more like plastic rather than TPU... Flexible plastic.
I have a few slim cases and compared to those, these bumpers add a lot more bulk. Probably won't be using them for an extended period of time and will go back to my slim cases or the Spigen Neo Hybrid.
Bought one of those and couldn't use it. The micro USB cutout is too small. I couldn't charge the phone with some cables and using Meenova is impossible with the case on.
I am also considering to buy a TPU case. How does it compare to hard back case cover for protection and comfort of use?

Well there is no protection for the back because it's, well...bare lol. For comfort, I had to get used to the width of the phone with this on. It's a bit wider than no case at all. But it protected my phone at a 4 foot drop. Nothing happened to the phone. :good:
Where do you get something like this? It's hard to search for an *actual* bumper case because so many normal full-body cases use the word "bumper" for no apparent reason

I purchased mine from here and have been using it the past few days - I'm really digging it but as someone said above the cutout for the usb slot is not quite big enough (I hadn't actually tested it before until now), but nothing an x acto knife can't fix

Did they put this thing on backwards, or is it a fake render? Last time I checked, the volume rockers were not on that side of the phone....

Yes they are if you are looking at the phone from the back at that angle

Well that's not the back, it's showing the face of the phone. That shouldn't be volume rockers, it should be the power and sim tray.

You are correct, that is a render in a sense. Or they put the phone in backwards lol. You see the speakers are pointed towards the bottom. That orientation dictates that the phone should be faced down. lol
