Zenus Cases

Hey all,
So when I first got the Vibrant I was a little ticked off how poorly companies had taken into account Samsung and there for left us limited to crappy Tmo cases. Anyway, that's why I love globalization and the internet. I bought a Zenus case which came with two amazing screen protectors. The only problem is that they are for the actual Galaxy S not our variant. Anyway, here are some small pics of the case I'll put up more later off the actual device, and the screen protectors.

Looks nice. I have been considering getting a leather style case like that.

I got that exact same one. Love it! We will see how it holds up though.

I do love it. It's comfy and sturdy. Its no otter box but still a great case. I like that it makes the phone a little heavier, which is the only thing I don't like about the Vibrant. The light weight plastic makes it feel kind low quality cheap to me.

I agree it can be slightly chubby in the pocket, but I think the thinness of this phone has spoiled me.

I have this case it's excellent. Fit is very good and it's very light. The sides have a little texture which makes it easier to grip and the button covers provide just enough resistance that I no longer have pushes happening when it's in my pocket. I was skeptical when I ordered it but I really can't think of anything I'd change about it - it's a fantastic case at a ridiculously good price.

Same here and same price on Amazon!

I got mine about a week ago. Paid $1.99. Absolutely the best case for that price! Nice and snug with great texture on the sides for grip. Highly recommend!

Got a link for this on Amazon? I could only find this case for $10 on Amazon.com

Its the case Im rockin right now and it feels nice. Obviously it doesn't make a huge difference, maybe its in my mind, but i even removed the battery cover. Just my phone and the case. Works nicely on heat too

I think im going to order this sucker right now!

Wonder how this one stacks up against the $10 one from Diztronic? I have that model and it's also a pretty nice case. Think I'll go ahead and jump on one as well. But I'm still looking for something in the Aegis/Commuter range for protection. Anyone seen either of these two floating around? For some reason, I'm just not feeling the Case Mate offering. Maybe I should re-think that!

Is it that same one as this one: http://www.amazon.com/S-Line-Shell-Samsung-Galaxy-Sprint/dp/B005U30660/ ?

Looks identical - I expect they all come from the same factory in any case. But why get it from amazon for $7.50 when you can get it on ebay for $2?

Just ordered my Epic Touch from Amazon yesterday (upgrading from an Evo 4G).. figured at this price, it'll at least be good enough to use until I find one that I like better... if I dont like this one

Whoo got the the case today and it feels amazing on the hands.
I sometimes think the phone is to thin and I can't grab it so well. I have used it for an hour now and I could already feel myself enjoying using my phone alot better.
The phone has some grooves on the sides that feels pretty snug and some what rugged.. Maybe it's so it doesn't slip out of your pocket. Which will benefit me since I use the phone for music and the gym alot.
Now I can lay my phone down on the counter with worrying about scratching the screen or the camera

SGP White Capsule Case

Bought this on Ebay and I really like it:
SGP Ultra Capsule Case White
Pros:
-No one notices it is a case
-Buttons all work
-Does not add bulk to the phone
-Protects the bezel
-Has pearl color not plain white
Cons:
-Could be a little bit less smooth to improve grip
SGP White Capsule Case 1 by Blue1k, on Flickr
SGP White Capsule Case 2 by Blue1k, on Flickr

That looks nice mate..

That looks very nice. How do you think it's protected inside? Any padding?

That looks top quality mate...

This is the exact case I got off amazon. Its a fantastic case. Mine is a little dirty after a month or so use but should clean off.

Excellent looking case and would be a perfect match on a white Note, the only thing I dislike about it is the little cutout in the corner designated for the Asian version I think.

I have it and rather dislike it. I do not like overly smooth overall finish, make it slippery in hand. Covers over buttons are a bit too tight, making buttons overly sensitive; I almost turn off my phone several times when I only wanted to put it to sleep. The cutout in the corner is really puzzling.

Beautiful case but person at AT&T says that type of case offers no real protection. My gf dropped her iPhone with similar case and the screen shattered. So I bought Speck Candyshell. Uglier but it works.

I bought this case off Amazon. Came with stenheil(sp?) screen protector, too. So it was a good bundle deal.
Fits great, works well and looks good too. I assume corner cut-out is for antenna.

Great case but this white colour may be a dirt magnet for long term use. I prefer black and with a bit of grip on the sides for extra protection on the phone to prevent accidental drops.

[Q] Case recommendation!

Hey guys, my S3 should be here by the end of the week, woooooooooo. But I need some help deciding on a case and was wondering if people who have tried different cases or used just one and can reccomend it could chime in. Basically I want something that will protect the phone, specifically something with a lip so when screen down the screen isn't touching the surface it's on, and basic protection of the phone, I don't drop my phone often, never dropped it on concrete, I'm not very clumsy but I still want something that'll protect my very very expensive phone. The Otterbox defended and similar cases seem like overkill for me, but the clear plastic 2mm case seem like not enough protection, so I was wondering if there was a nice middle ground that wasn't too thick and bulky but would definitely protect the phone. I've got my eye on this one http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s-3-ballistic-sg-maxx-series-case, any other suggestions?
Keep in mind I'm coming from a Desire Z with a thickness of 14.2 mm, the S3 feels like a piece of paper in my hand coming from that, so a little bulk doesn't bother me.

I have a extended battery case on mine, but I went & ordered a Trident Kraken off Ebay. $28.99+free shipping, was too tempting.

That's a nice deal for the Kraken, I like the Aegis as well, they look really nice.

I know you said the otter box is excessive but they actually have two different styles at sprint. i have the slim otter its not bulky but protects everything. I like alot due to the fact that it protects the charging port as well as the ear phone Jack. I had the s2 before and my charging port always got stuff in it like lent from my pocket or what not. The case is lined with a silicone case inside a hard shell which will stop dirt from getting inside and scratching the device as well as making it more drop resistant. It is deffinatly worth having for 30 dollars.
The otter box i have is actually smaller than the case you have posted and comes with one screen protector as well.
Here is a youtube review of the case if it dosent play just google galaxy s3 otter box commuter caae.

I actually just picked up a commuter case to replace my defender. It's much sleeker and easy to take in and out of the pocket. While it retains the solid feel the defender offered, I have an issue with the grip. Any advice on dealing with its slickness?

The Otterbox doesn't look too bad, but for the price of $32.50 it seems kinda..... Boring. Some of the other cases look really cool.

Hands down the best case I've ever purchased. Looks amazing in all colors, very good protection, not too bulky, and came without any flaws. It turns heads while providing the protection I need.

+1 for Otterbox Defender. Its not anywhere near as bulky as I thought it was going to be and I really like how it provides me with solid, square edges so I can prop it up on my display screen in my car dash very easily and it stays securly in place (for the most part).

New Amazon DE case from Pulsarplus gets great reviews. Any experiences here?

Here's a relatively new one that popped up on my radar. It's a TPU case with nice buttons and very good reviews, not only from a materials perspective but also with respect to button feedback. I think the honeycomb look adds a bit of subdued flair. Apparently the case is in fact black, but from the photo it looks ever so slightly green. Could be just the lighting. Looks very nice if you ask me!

GOSH that looks sexy I especially love the way the case curves from the back to the sides so seamlessly! And it is translucent? if so, it would be even sexier!!! Some real life pics and review would be appreciated! hope they make more of these and make them available internationally, and more colors.
Also the dark green color does look nice I know its black, but still!!!

Love the look of this case so I emailed them just to see they'd be willing to ship to the states...
Dear Jason,
thank you very much for your inquiry and your kindly interest in our products.
Unfortunately we actually only sell our products within the EU and other european
countries. For logistical reasons concerning the customs clearance, we don't offer
shipping to the US. Thanks for your kindly understanding.
We are already thinking about selling our products on Amazon.com, too so that
US clients would be able to receive our cases within a few business days.
So maybe you will find our cases in your country in the near future.
Wish you a nice day.
Best regards.

So maybe in the future, but not right now.

I ordered this case just because of your OP I have the ringke fusion, ultra slim and a nilkin shell And this case is BY FAR the best case I've ever had on a smartphone. Its REALLY slim, the fusion is actually bulkier and it offers a lot more protection than the fusion. It looks absolutely gorgeous and it feels even better. You have no fingerprints whatsoever and the bee thingy on the back feels really good. Its a bit harder than generic tpu cases, the whole case feels like the rubbered edges of the fusion only a lot better. So 10/10 I can gladly recommend this case to anyone. The buttons are also covered and feel great. If anyone wants pictures I can provide

tire, yes my thoughts exactly. I found a few tread cases for the GN and NS on ebay. Casemate only makes for the GS4 now. Any idea if they'll be available for the N5? I don't even want casemate's cases, even a generic case with a tread pattern will do.

You say the buttons are great. How do they compare to the other cases? Do they give feedback, or a click of some sort? Some case button covers are too stiff, while others put so much pressure on the buttons that it becomes too easy to accidentally turn the phone on while in your pocket.

I guess i would pretty much compare it to the fusion if you have one.. If you don't have one for reference, it does get a teensy bit harder to press the button compared to naked(obviously), but its not really clicky.
Edit: the buttons are not hard to press and feel very natural, but as I said not as easy as without a case

Not a single complaint. Nice feeling, grip, look, fit, material, ..

Just received mine. Looks and feels great but I found one major flaw already. The micro usb cutout is very small, just to fit oem N5 cable and it fits tightly. Any other cable (unless it has longer than usual metal part of micro usb plug) will be unusable since the case is made from hard tpu that won't stretch to fit any larger plugs.

I got this last week and it is hands down the best tpu case I have ever seen. I would not have thought that diztronic could be trumped, but it does. Faboulous build quality and feel. It is a bit thicker than most tpu cases and the cutout for usb port is small (oem cable fits exactly), those are the only "downsides".

How can I get this case? I live in Chicago.
