the body glove case on t-mobile's site looks really good to me. but body glove has a bad history of damaging phones. i've seen posts on a few devices. hence... i'm wary of getting one. i will probably play it safe and wait for some posts about it on here. but it def looks good.

ahh found them!
the screen protectors on Amazon

I'm just gonna wait for couple weeks and see any good designed case comes out

I should be getting my body glove the diamond white one,from T-Mobile today. will post pictures up later

I'm going to wait it out till I get a nice S-shaped Non transparent, TPU case I have had it on my last three phones and I plan on keeping it that way.

Definitely looking for accessories already Anybody have details on the D3O cases/bands? Their site says they'll have them but I haven't found any retailers.

Just so ppl know I emailed trident they plan to make the aegis case for or phone but out will be a month or so. And also skinomi has their Shields for sale already ordered mine the 9th should be here soon will post pics.

What are you referring to?

I bought the black body glove case & a couple of cutesy patterned hard cases off eBay. And fyi- the T-Mobile screen protectors seem to be pretty darn good.

Here are some pictures of the Diamond white body glove from t-mobiles website.
i'm sorry these aren't the best pictures couldn't get my vibrant to focus correctly.

Nice pictures! I'd also like to know more. Does it get stuck when you try to pocket it?

the case overall it seems very durable. 9/10 when there isn't a phone in there its kinda flimsy but it feels real sturdy in your hand. The phone does not get stuck when you try to pocket it, it has a hard coat so its not like a soft silicone case. Doesn't attract any lint that's a plus. I really jumped the gun and bought the case before I got my phone

Found a lot of cheap TPU cases on e-bay + screen protectors. Can't wait for them to get here so I can stop being so careful with my phone.

Got myself a tpu and arrived yesterday and doesnt really fit quite as well as the tpu for my vibrant

i didnt see this case in my local tmobile stores, i seen the other 2 cases. i ordered mine online.

Seidio Active vs. Incipio Silicrylic Case [Pics comparo]

Since these two cases are pretty similar (silicone inside, hard shell outside), here are some pics of both to help you decide.
Size wise both are very similar with the Seidio being slightly thinner in width.
The inner silicone of the Incipio comes out farther onto the screen than the Seidio.
The sides of the Seidio are not floppy like the Incipio, mainly because it has an extra piece of the hard outer shell latched on.
They're both lint magnets, so bare with me on these select pics.

Awesome what do u think of the seidio? I'm thinking about ordering one. I already have the incipio silicrylic and it's OK. Which one do you like better? Also do you think you can post pics of the seidio case with the phone in it? Thanks

Current fave is the Seidio, it just fits tighter than the incipio.
I'll snap some more pics with the phone inside, I just need to find another cam.

Yup, the White/Gray one.
Lol, you're about as bad as I am when it comes to cases. When it's time to sell the phone, I usually end up with a crapload of accessories.
I'll probably get rid of the Incipio sooner or later, I'll let you know if I do

Oh! I thought it was white. My mistake lol.
I have two questions:
1) Does the case make the phone feel bulky?
2) Does the case cause your phone to echo? like if you're on the phone with someone, can they hear themselves talking?
I have a two piece case, but it's one of those cheap ones so every time I'm on the phone with someone, they keep mentioning that they can hear themselves.

They both look great...I'm torn

I am torn between the Seidio and the Trident Agies case.

Get them all, swap daily

How much bulk does the Seidio Active add? I am looking at a case to use once in awhile and I just want something that offers decent protection with minimal bulk. I don't need anything thick like Otterbox Defenders or anything like that.

The Active is definitely not as thick as the defender. Honestly, it isn't much bulk. If you want protection, you're going to add size no matter what.

SILICRYLIC Hard Shell Case with Silicone Core
http://www.myincipio.com/Samsung-Ga...CRYLIC-Hard-Shell-Case-with-Silicone-Core.asp

nice. i liked the first one, and just bought one

I bought the hard case/silicon core at the VZW store when I bought the phone. I found that if you take the outer shell off, you can place it over the screen (fits better upside down) to protect the front, that way both sides have some sort of protection on 'em.

Wonder if it will fit the extended battery cover?

I'll post back when mine shows up, just picked up the $25 ext. battery on VZW's site...

Anyone get these yet? I'm looking at the first one, how much bulkiness does it add to the device?

To my dismay, the first Incipio cover adds a lot of bulkiness all around. It does well to protect it hough so I'm using it currently whenever I go to work and I need to have my phone on me. The Feather case is nice because it virtually feels like there isn't much of a case, but from personal experience with the same brand case (incipio feather) when using a Nexus S, the case doesn't do well to protect the corners.. So when you drop it and it lands on its corner (because it somehow tends to), there's still a possibility of denting/scratching.

Ι had the first one in Nexus S... its even thinner than barely there from case mate. For me its the best case with minimal protection for those who dont want to screw GN looks

+1 for info on extended battery fit
LTE Google Galaxy Nexus! - Stock
Asus Transformer - OC/UV

I'll reply back with an update as soon as I hear from them. Maybe if we all emailed them about they will decide to make one if this doesn't fit and I doubt it will.

This does in fact fit with with the extended battery/cover. The hard case is a tight fit, but it works and looks fine!

The feather is very firm fitting. I'm very skeptical. Not to mention we dint know if this is for GSM our LTE...

This is a different case. This is the FEATHER not the SILICRYLIC...

yea i need to know if these are GSM or VZW LTE model cases. Im sure most cases fit both but still want the confirmation. Does anyone know if the power button and volume rocker is lower on the LTE model or did they just change the lil power button symbol only?

If you're buying them in the US it is probably for the LTE version.

That is clearly NOT the feather.

I bought the Silicrylic case from Verizon themselves.. I'd assume that the feather case would be for LTE but I will drop by my VZW store again and check for a feather case and try on the fit with my GSM model. The Silicrylic fits nicely but it isn't totally hugged by the silicon part.

Looking for a case with a holster

I am looking for a case that is like the otterbox commuter but has a holster like the defender series. My phone is white so I want a white case. I know the Seidio active but white isn't available yet in white. They need to hurry up! Anyone know of any others?
Few criterit:
Must have a lip all the way around the edge of the screen.
Must come with a holster
Must be white
As little bulk as possible

That Nilkin case comes in white.

It will. I've been using that combo on my Galaxy Nexus and old Sensation. The Active and Commuter are both the same size. That combo looks better than the Defender for those who need a holster for work.

SPIGEN SGP Leather Pouch Crumena for Samsung Galaxy SIII

I was able to get this from a friend because he doesn't like pouch style protection so he has given it to me.
I personally love pouch-style over cases so in my opinion, this fits well and is great. Only thing is that I rather have a fabric like the one that came with the G1 over this leather feel. Amazon seems to sell them for 29.99. I can't post links so please search for
SPIGEN SGP Leather Pouch Crumena for Samsung Galaxy SIII, S3 for Verizon, Sprint, Tmobile, AT&T and other Carriers [Black]
comes in three different color variants. fits my phone perfectly.

Well reply to this and you'll get your 10th post and ability to post links.
I've ordered this pouch, and was wondering if there's enough room for an S3 with a "sleeve" case like Rock or the Diztronic one to fit into it?
Thanks

I've had the brown for about two weeks now, love it. The speaker hole cut out is a welcome addition.

No, the sleeve from SPG is tight enough where if you held the pouch with phone upside down, it won't slip out. Thats with the naked device.

the vendor I get fromis every_sell
i have been getting pouches from them for almost every phone i've had.....I can't find a difference at all...
I once bought a pouch for them and was about to give them a negative review because they state OEM....i emailed them saying I was going to give a neg review due to them stating OEM.
They told me that htc actually contracted with who they get the cases from to make it for the g1...so all they do is redesign it for the new phones with the same material and build quality, hence stating OEM
i would have given them a negative review it was cheap and flimsey...but It isn't....it is a little deceiving they state OEM when it isn't, but the build quality doesn't suffer, so i dont mind.....if it did, i would have given them negative reviews

thanks for that link, i'll def look into that in the future! like those G1 style cases the most.

This thread is useless without pics. Lol jk but do you have a pic for real though

Scratch Issues

Hey question for you guys who own this case. I've been reading up on reviews for the crumena (mainly on amazon) and there has been some complaints about the case actually scratching up the phone. The scratches are mainly on the side and more specifically the back of the phone mainly due to the ribbon.
Are you guys experiencing the same problem??

christian, I didn't even get a days use out of the case. After fighting with it to get my S3 to go inside of the pouch, I ended up having to use a razor blade to remove the stitching as the S3 was stuck inside of it. I was reimbursed by SGP.
