Is there an Otterbox for this version? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

My girlfriend has this phone, obviously being the TMo SGSII.
She saw I'm looking to get a otterbox defender for my Rezound I'm getting, she wants to know if there's one for her phone, I looked on Amazon and they exist for the international version and the AT&T version, would one of these work or is there one specific for this version? Thanks.

You could go on ebay and check out the ballistic or the trident cases. But they dont have that plastic screen protector. But honeslty the screen protector interferes with the touch

The infuse version fits with a small modification. Started a thread about it.

It works decent.

Seidio active case is another great option.

Unless you really, really need to have an Otterbox, don't buy the Infuse Otterbox for use with this phone. You'd be supporting a company that explicitly considers our phone to be unworthy of a case. Instead, I would encourage you to support one of the other companies who make cases specifically for our phones.

I'd respectfully disagree with you, although trident wins far and away aestetic wise.

I really like my Trident. It definitely increases the size of the device, but it feels safe, I've dropped it a few times from decent heights without any noticeable scratches or wear, and just fits in the hand right. Definitely worth the price.

If she'll settle for something like an otterbox, I would suggest getting her one of these- http://www.ebay.com/itm/150738046136?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 I just got one & it's just as solid as any otterbox I've ever seen. Much cheaper too, and it comes in a bunch of color combos.
And I agree about not supporting otterbox too. Why give money to a company that thinks our phones aren't important enough to make cases for(even though they're one of T-Mo's best selling phones)? Jerks. I had an OB for my HD2 & to be honest, it wasn't worth the money. The silicone got all stretched out within a month & the screen protector stuck to my screen & caused oil-slick distortions.

So does anyone make a case with a built in screen protector for our phone?
I have read as many threads as I can find...plus I have done a lot of Googling...and I cannot find a case with a built-in screen protector for our phone. I know some people don't like them, but I am a huge fan of the Otterbox Defender and that is what I am looking for on my phone. I don't feel like I can ever get the individual screen protectors on correctly, and even a teeny tiny piece of lint or bubble makes me crazy...and then the sides start coming up. All of my friends and family have 4 or 4s with Defenders (plus my son has an iTouch4 with a Defender), and the touch sensitivity is great. Does any brand make a case with a built in screen protector for the T-Mobile GS2??
Thank you!
p.s. The guy who has modified the Infuse Defender case is brilliant, great innovation! But I am not up for this. I want one made specifically for this phone w/a built-in screen protector.

Yea it would pop off, and you could put it back on (it wasn't designed to come off). I would personally like my kickstand to stay in its... I guess it would be a socket of some type?
But yea, you get it.
I bought this case mostly because I don't have a desk job so I don't have a nice, safe place to put my new Evo. I had a BodyGlove for the Hero and that did the trick but the Evo is much larger and more expensive . Yea, it made it a beast but it's cheaper than 500 bux. It did come with a holster that keeps the screen to your inside, it comes with a screen protector and the front cover has one as well. There's also covers for the camera and LEDS built into the back. The kickstand though, that's a pos. With a little cutting I'm sure the stock kickstand would poke through just fine but it appears it may lean the phone back too much. 27.95 with free shipping:

Just realized this says "SC" case and I have the "HC" case. Ehh, whatever though. It's basically the same case just the HC one is definitely for those that have accidents with their devices. Not only that I paid less for the HC then they advertise the SC one for so that's another plus. Personally, I like it but if you don't have large hands you may find this a little cumbersome to deal with everyday.
After about 3 weeks with my Ballistic HC I could not be happier. This is by far the best case on the market for strength, looks, and durability. I have not had a single issue with my kickstand. I had read all the comments so I grabbed my kickstand and vigorously pulled and shook it. It did not budge one bit. Either it was redesigned or some of you are absolute cavemen lol. I'm assuming Ballisitic took care of the issue with a redesign

Otterbox Commuter REVIEW

so as you guys know , I made the review for the defender and now its time for the commuter!
Very sleek, sexy and portable case. Minimum bulk while delivering great protection. A little slippery on the back but i can handle that
For me..ill take this case over the defender any day of the week.
Enjoy!
http://youtu.be/cm1qbkTA-2A
I got mine a few days ago and it's great. It doesn't make the phone to bulky at all and looks and feels great.
I convinced my brother to buy one after I dropped (test) it shoulder-high on the ceramic floor, twice. Still shiny new. The past reviews that I read were pushing me away from the commuter but I can honestly say it delivers protection and it's not that bulky. It doesn't pick up that much dust, and my phone is always in and out of my pocket. also, when you get the hang of it, you can put the case and remove it in 2 seconds. I don't know why people were hating on it. I don't use the extended batteries, gsm.
Has anyone crammed a VZW Gnex with the extended battery into the Commuter? Right now I'm just using a cheapo gel skin, but I'm in and out of the case a lot and it's starting to stretch.
Those cases make me cringe. Such beautiful phones being destroyed by cases.

Honestly Im a HUGE fan of rocking my phone naked..however I cant afford a new phone every time I drop it (and with my dropping skills it happens pretty often). Thats why i stick with the thinnest cases possible that still give good protection (sgp,diztronic,commuter,etc)

Yea I have it and it fits fine. You may want to take the battery cover off. That's what I do
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Same here. If you choose not to cover your phone, that is your given right. However, when you have an unlocked device you're running a big enough risk as it is.
Also the VZW users may want to check this guy's mod out.

i had the commuter for my captivate and decided to try one for my gnex but returned it. it is one of the best fitting dual layer case that ive tried but i dont like how the outer hard shell is so slippery and the lines down it make it look cheap. the case was just as slippery as the naked gnex.
i bought the incipio silicrylic instead, it doesnt fit at tight as the commuter but is a bit thinner since the lip is not as high. the silicrylic feels so much better to hold with its rubber coating on the hard shell and exposed silicon on the sides and top. another downside is the incipio attracts more dirt than the commuter but its not as bad as some people say.
I had this case...pushing the buttons thru the case was a pain so I returned it! And pulling the battery is a true *****! In terms of protection, its great though! No doubt! I don't use a case anymore but I highly recommend if you're in the US to just go to ur local Verizon store and grab an incipio, fits better and pushing the buttons are easy! Plus they give u a stand too! Although I returned that also cuz this phone is too sexy and sleek to cover up, in my opinion of course!

Commuter with no battery back fits well. Best IMO.
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
I bought my GNex slightly used (1 month old), the previous owner had the Commuter one the GNex from day one, which was cool because I knew I was buying a used device that was most likely to be in mint condition... and it was. It has GREAT protection and IMO the corners having the interlining exposed was a great design because if/when you drop the phone, it's most likely to land on a corner first.
THAT said however... I'm currently NOT using it and decided to go with something slimmer ONLY because I've developed a habit of typing ONLY with Swype with ONE hand, it started when I had the Nexus ONE... and I got pretty good at it... The problem is... the GNex being bigger, Swyping with one hand is now more of an effort because I don't have big hands. WITH the Commuter case, it was simply more work... I'm keeping the Commuter for now, and would totally still be using it if it wasn't for the Swype thing.

Case Mate Phantom VS OtterBox defender VS Ballistic SG Maxx. which is best?

I have the galaxy for about 2 weeks now, and I'm afraid to pick it out the table with it's current cheap original case!
I'm looking for something new, something to guard it from falls and prevent any damage! I'm on a contract for the next 3 years, can't afford anything happen to the phone during this time.
basically, I want both protection for the back and the screen, so i came to the 3 options i mentioned in the title.
I don't care how much inches the case adds to the phone, if it's comfortable or not, if the screen loses it's quality! i only care for the case to give the best protection possible, one that will last for a while as well and not lose it's quality in a few month (something i heard about the defender).
so what do you think? which case answers this need best?
all are the same price from what i saw, 50$. i don't mind putting them, but are there any cheaper suppliers? but not with the chance of buying a fake case, prefer to spend the 50$ fully...

The seidio obex ( life proof case ) not as good people make it out to be... my friend has had three of them. And had to replace his phone twice because of that seidio. Btw the seidio not good up to 6 ft. Only about 4 ft any deeper it starts leaking because of the pressure. Imo id take the otter box hands down all models to commuter defender armor case
Also have you checked ebay or amazon for cheaper prices ?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy s3
I think it's a reasonable price when you take into consideration that the Seidio''s Obex case is priced at $80. I'm sure Lifeproof will have theirs priced in the same ballpark. I'm really looking into buying a waterproof case. If Lifeproof doesn't at least post a picture of their case up soon I'll be buying Otterbox when it's released. Otterbox has proven itself time and time again and their customer service is second to none.
Seems fair, when the LifeProof first came out for the Iphone it was 90..if LifeProof keeps taking their time I'll go with the otterbox, have a defender and love it..

Yeah but the defender doesn't cost $100. The other thing I can't wait to find out is if they used the same Defender-type screen on the armor. The defenders screen protector is IMO basically useless, I don't know how any of you can use it. I don't know if it's due to the type of screen the s3 uses but the defender for iphone is pretty nice, the screen protector doesn't degrade the screen quality much if at all. If any of you have never seen the s3 inside a defender, the screen protector makes nice little star bursts all over your entire screen, it's terrible!

Actually I hope they use the same material to make the screen protector as the defender, I bought the seidio waterproof and the screen protector was horrible, I couldn't even use swype , and in the defender, it might look bad but at least it doesn't affect the touch sensibility.

Its a rainbow effect. Its from the plastic of the screen protector getting too much grease marks on it. I popped mine out because of that. Sucks though too because the case gets loose without the protector in.
The only material that's equal in both preserving look and sensitivity of the touchscreen is plexiglass. Ivyskin case company in new jersey uses it with their iPhone cases. Plexiglass is easy to shatter though unless its thicker.

The defenders problem isn't the oils from your fingers, without touching it the screen still looks awful. As for materials, have you ever used a lifeproof case? The screen still looks great and sensitivity isn't affected at all. I don't know what they make it out of but I'm pretty sure it isn't plexiglass.

I have defender - if you wipe your phone, and your galaxy's screen with a rag (that comes with sun glasses). And the you wipe protective screen from inside and outside (but really good, to eliminate all microscopic dust particles - it will stay like this. Sure you better not to throw your phone in dusty places - will be ok.
And it's protective screen, not just a plastic. If you need something for beauty - buy thin cases and be happy If you love running at the morning/mountain biking/ and other sport/action - you will be happy with that case. And it's look great.
But what really annoying for me it's a power button is hardly pressed when in case. I have to push the button a little harder.
And at all - i love my case, purchased at eBay i got it for 30$ with delivery in 1 week (from Hong Kong, straight from the factory )
Just check eBay for Galaxy S3 Armor Series, may be there will be cheaper deal. I know some waterproof case, that cost a lot more (can't remember the brand).
But who d f need waterproof case? Seriously. I can swim without phone, it's ok

Picked one up off of eBay for 29.99. I had a Trident Kraken on the GN and enjoyed it. Cases are built well, and offer good phone protection.

That's a slick looking case, especially in blue. Is it as bulky as it looks though?
Sooo... it looks like UAG is going to be making a case for the Moto X after all. They kinda said it without saying it here-
Hi Brad,
We are listening we are launching several new products and designs and are looking ahead. Thanks for reaching out and considering UAG as armor for your Moto X! It seems like a natural match.
Kind Regards,
UAG Support

I'm keeping my fingers crossed on both hands. Loved that case on my s3. The white version reminded me of a storm trooper, and the olive green reminded me of halo lol

I don't think we have anything to worry about. When you put their response in context with the email I sent them, it's a pretty surefire thing. I rocked the white on my iPhone 5 and on my HTC One, and I will certainly be rocking the white on my Moto X.
Here was my email to them-
I know I have asked you guys on Facebook if you were planning on making a case for the Moto X and you said no, but I was hoping you guys have taken note of the growing popularity of the phone and possibly reconsidered. I really think you guys will sell a lot of them, considering you make hands down the best cases on the market. Last time around I did a review of your case for the HTC One on xda developers (_MetalHead_) and it was met with an overwhelmingly positive response. Many people purchased the case after reading that review. I will gladly do another review of the Moto X case, should you decide to make one, and I guarantee we will get the same reaction. You guys make a wonderful product, you just need to expand your offerings to cover more devices. Lets start with the Moto X!

So. I was poking around on their site and I found their newest iPhone 5c case: http://www.urbanarmorgear.com/products/maverick
I do not doubt that there will be, at least, this version for the moto x. Since we have multiple colors, they will look for the most cost-effective way to make a matching color scheme for the case. The best option would be to make a clear one. Although I would most definitely choose white again, I will gladly settle if they only release a clear version.

God I hope that's not all they give us. I NEED a Navigator for my Moto X. I am not a fan at all of the clear one, it completely defeats the industrial aesthetic of their standard case.

Well I am coming from the GNex with extended battery plus Kraken case. That was a pretty bulky phone not gonna lie as you had a layer of TPE followed by the hard plastic. The Cyclops on my X still feels pretty awesome without ungodly bulk, It still is overall a rather thin phone, and I think it fits better in my hands as I have big hands.

I ended up buying a blue one and it came yesterday. It's a decent case but it does add a little too much bulk for my liking. I do like how it maintains a semi-thin profile but I don't like how wide it is. I'm probably going to use it while at work for now, but once the UAG case comes out then it'll probably get tossed in a drawer never to be seen again.

I know the feeling as I have 3 or 4 rugged GNex cases laying around trying to find the right one. I will definitely be trying out the UAG case whenever it hits the market. I just went with the Cyclops as I don't use Otterboxes, and that was about the only rugged case outside of Ballistic. My profession require that I have a rugged case and screen protector at all times.

Me too. I love UAG cases. I have one for my Note 2 and used the holster from Seidio Convert add-on kit.
