apparently there are no many options out there
the tmobile one is bulky and heavy
i found some on amazon which are light weighted and thin but they say the are not cut precisely especially at the button to the way that covers the mic
any idea ?suggestions ?
D30 is what a lot of people are using, Incipio just came out with some, Otterbox = no, Trident by the end of the month, and Seidio pretty soon.
Oh, I'm using the Body Glove Revel (T-Mobile) with a Realook and loving it.

what about the Belkin translucent grippable protection from target ?
Trident has always been a reputable case provider for my previous phones. Check out tridentcase.com. I believe the T-Mobile version will be out soon. Their cases are very stylish and protective in my oppinion.

My tpu case just came the mic hole seems to be properly aligned now. It wraps tightly around the phone no loose parts. its not a lint collector either.

I personally hated the D30... the power button was difficult to press with it on. I bought a $9 tpu from Amazon and IMHO think its a million times better... my Michael hole was off but nothing a razor blade couldn't handle. IV ordered the incipio feather case (more my style) and it should be here tomorrow. Ill post some pics when I have hands on.

Black. I always rock black... well, my white i9100 I had a silver breathe case.. but I like to keep it neutral. I LOVE the breathe case. As previously stated, not much in drop protection, but its slim and light and doesn't even feel like you have a case on at all... that's what I look for in a case... I hate the clucky stuff.

Yea, normally I do black too, but figured I'd switch it up for this.
I hate bulky cases too and just want something for a little added protection.

You can just try the white body body glove that tmobile is selling. It fits nice and very well. In my opinion its the best that I have ever seen.
The argyle tpu case fits suprisingly well for only 5 bucks shipped from amazon

I had the otterbox commuter for my sensation and loved it. For my s2 I was looking for something comparable, and the best so far I've tried is the incipio case. It comes with a rubber inner and a nice smooth outer hard case. Comes with a screen protector too. Very solid case, no complaints from me. Looks sharp too

I have the Ballistic SG case and I think it's the best protective hybrid case.
Everything feels solid, no loose fitting silicone, and looks cool. Pretty much a tank; I've dropped my phone twice since I've had it, and I haven't even flinched.
The Incipio Silicrylic looks nice (prob best looking hybrid), but in that video review I saw (posted in this forum), the really loose fitting silicone on the sides would drive me nuts. Plus I saw how the dude could pop the phone right out of the case like a cheap silicone case... wouldn't trust it on a serious drop.
I am using the white body glove case and no complaints so far.
D3O
the D3O Dual is very nice!!!!!!!!!
I too got the body glove case for my new s g s 2, but I've noticed that the front corners are exposed and vulnerable to damage if I drop it.
I got a purple Diztronic TPU case from Amazon & it's really nice. I also have the white body glove case, but I don't use it all that much cause I'm just not crazy about white :/
I have the crumena case it's nice and slim, protects the phone well and the pull tab works really well. It's a little expensive but it is a quality leather product. Recommended..

:good: for the crumena pouch, protects my s3 well while it's in my pocket or if I want to put it down somewhere. Still have to be careful while using it of course.

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??

was wanting to know if there's any reviews on this case .
Thanks
What is that a bumper case?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
It actually looks like it's similar to a lot of those other hybrid TPU and PET/Acrylic cases that you see on eBay and such where the rounded edges are a soft rubber, while the panel over the back of the phone is solid. Either that, or it's their own take on your usual two-layer protective cover, with a silicon inner layer covered by a hard plastic shell.
^ so you think it would be a good case with some what protection? I bought a Tpu case off ebay, and the holes are not cut out good, and it don't seem that it will protect it at all.

Just wonder what kind of cellphone case most people like to use...TPU? hard? flip? frosted? glossy? black? color? transparent?
I stick to slim hard cases all along..I don't think their protection is less than those more bulky TPU cases.. (ooppss..sorry to TPU lovers..)
what is your choice?
I just ordered a UAG case for my s4. Had one on my s3 and loved it. Great quality for the price. But does not protect your phone if it falls face first onto a gravel road haha.

the ironic thing, the accessories section isn't even being used or these such threads aren't moved there.
that being said, I like the Otter Box defender series. too bad I needed one ASAP and I couldn't get the blue one, because not only is it available but I was able to snag OBs on Amazoon nowadays for 20% off regular price...
i like my phone without a case
if youre going to buy a case for the s4 it has to be the spigen sgp neo hybrid white/black
if you want a higher quality aluminum one then buy the iphone style one that offers full drop protection, add a spigen glast screen protector and your good to go :good:
I needed a case and an otterbox reseller is next to my T-Mobile store. Go figure

Spigen neo hybrid. Get the silver and silver aluminum home button sold separately. Beautiful combo

I bought the Spigen Neo Hybrid but it made the phone too big for me so I gave it to my son.
I actually like my Samsung S case the best.
Here's a list. I'm using ghost armor.

DUALTEKK all the way!!
Never had a better case (for any phone) than the dualtekk for S4, such modern design and so solid, even like how it sounds when I drop my phone
I got the Otterbox Commuter, I love it.

Spigen Neo Hybrid! )
I have a tech21 frosted gray case. The one with the orange strips built in. I love the way these cases look. I also have one on my iPhone 5. I don't know how effective the orange strips really are though.

I was looking for a true bumper case to use with my Nexus wireless charger car dock. However it seems that there aren't any quality ones out there. So I bought a Rearth Ringke Fusion case, remove the back and made a bumper case out of it. =) It is slimmer than Spigen Neo Hybrid. The sides are stretchy enough that can be pushed outward a bit. I have never used a true bumper case before so I'm not sure if this kind of stretchiness is normal. The back is raised enough to protect the lens. I have dBrand skin installed so there is another layer of protection for the back/lens. Hopefully it will work like a true bumper case.
Looks nice! Was it hard tot remove the back of the case? I think i'll give it a try to!

It takes quite a bit of force to take it out but just keep on trying and eventually you can push it out for sure. I have only done this on a Ringke Fusion. Spigen Ultra Hybrid is another possible candidate. However I can't guarantee the back is removable.
I like that keyboard.

Friendly advice: Don't do it. I just did, and the bumper alone is super wobly = hardly any relevant protection for the phone + uncomfortable in the hand. Tomorrow, I'm buying a superglue to glue it back together
hey what base is that holding up the wireless charger?
thats pretty much exactly what i've been looking up. want to mock up something just like it.
That base is exactly what I am looking for as well. Could you provide some more info on it thanks.
