Hello there,
I used to have a SGP combo for Galaxy S2 and was pretty much satisfied. It cost me 20$ inc. shipping.
Now I wonder if I should go in the same route for Galaxy Nexus. So I am just asking you guys, which are your suggestions for best price of a Screen protector + a case?
Looking forward to your comments
thanks
For a screen protector, I would suggest XO Skins.
As for a case, do you want added protection or just a case to protect the phone from everyday use?
Right now, the Rearth Ringke Slim case is what I'm using. I don't want the added bulk and this is just fine for everyday use. Also, I NEVER drop my phone so this is perfect for me.
Well I just ordered a case+screen protector combo on eBay for a total of 9.80. Its called Diztronic. The screen protector comes with the case.

I purchased the diztronic case from amazon for $10 and I am EXTREMELY pleased with the overall feel and fit of the case. I'm using it on a GSM nexus with stock battery and Its a perfect fit. The tpu case also came with a screen protector which I happened to use and its actually pretty decent for a non wet application screen protector. I recommend it to anyone and everyone.

My favorite case for sure!
im still on rev 1 , still the best case ive used thus far.
Ill probably just buy rev 3. A few other cases ive tried arent even close.
My favorite slim case. I'm using rev. 1 too.
Just checking stuff out.
I have a Incipio Sylicrilic, Triobump, Xtreme Guard Screens, basic screen protectors and just ordered a Samsung 32GB Class 10.
Thinking about checking out the roll on screen protector by PureGear and a Sweet Armor case.

Got one at the store. Quality is great, I just don't like the flaps that close off the open ports. Post pics when you get it.

Would like to have Allshare Cast and whatever adapter it takes to use MHL and a game controller simultaneously, but Samsung are in no hurry to release either so guess my money's safe until either they release them or I find I Chinese knockoff first.
Incipio Sycrilic Case and a Diztronic TPU case which I just got today. I expected it to be a little softer but it will do. I don't see how the Diztronic case is going to protect against drops but I don't drop my phone much.

Sgp neo lumi case, Diztronic TPU, zagg screen protector and 32gb class 10 card
The Platinum series from Best Buy isn't bad. Nice thin two piece case and comes with a holster. The holster has a nice sturdy clip and allows for easy access to your phone. It's keeping my phone safe until I can get my hands on Otterbox or Trident.

Edit: only negative is that you have to be careful if using a screen protector. Case is tight and edges may come up if you aren't careful.

Hey everyone.
I'm trying to find a case for my phone that doesn't obstruct the use of the buttons with other plastic. I got the otterbox commuter but the plastic that's used has changed since my last otterbox and it's now rigid and terrible. It makes it virtually impossible to press the buttons.
Anyone have a suggestion?
My Ballistic Case offers great protection and the buttons are fine. You don't have to use the display protector and I don't. I use a Zagg HD screen protector.

Spigen Ultra series...
If you are just looking to protect against scratches, the OEM Samsung cases are the best I have found. Obviously don't provide protection from drops, but ultra thin and add some grip to the phone. I picked up the white two-pack from Expansys. If you have the 50% off from Samsung accessories you can pick up the white/blue pack for $10 plus shipping and tax.

DBA Cases Ultra. Small company with an excellent product. Numerous color combinations available. They can be found on Amazon or their website. There is also a review here on XDA

DBA thin grip is the best case I've come across and it has huge cutouts for the buttons. Definitely worth checking out.

Rock quicksand series cover, it's a great case and has a nice grip to it!
I agree! I use only Ballistic, I tried 4 other cases including OB and the buttons are way to stiff for my own liking. Ballistic with a Zagg HD I highly recommend.
Thanks everyone
I have the PureGear DualTek Extreme Impact Case and it's really good. Non obstructive and provides good protection.

Hey. I currently have a cheap 2$ case from Ebay. The problem with it, that it doesnt have a good feeling, I mean its not comfortable to hold the phone, and I dont like how it feels. I am looking to buy a case from the hiqh quality brands : Otterbox, Cae Mate, Incipio, SGP... I realy cant decide which one of them to buy. As I mentioned before, I want the case to have a good feeling in the hand and it has to be comfortable to hold...
Thanks..
I just ordered a Ringke SLIM Case, after doing a lot of research on cases that pay attention to the "feel". I haven't received it yet, so all I have to go on is the videos on YouTube. Runner up was the Incipio Feather, which was actually a little cheaper. I'm hoping this is a case where you pay a little extra to get a better quality product. We'll see.
It is a hugely subjective feeling. Does the Nexus feel big in your hand? Can you handle a case that will add a bit of thickness to it? If you want protection, then all of the slim cases like the Feather and SLIM won't function in that way. If you want a relative slimness, with good in-hand feel, and protection, I'd recommend the Seidio Surface or the Active (my favorite), with the Kickstand, since the design allows for it to hide while you hold it.
I like the incipio case that verizon sells and it fits with the extended battery too.
^^^ Agreed. The Incipio Silicrylic is an awesome case with great protection. Its a tad loose on the back of my gsm gnex but it fits great none the less. And they have a wide array of colors

i have the Ringke SLIM Case and i think its ok. but the protection sucks. one drop and the phone will probably get messed up pretty bad. i only have it because it came with my phone when i bought it used. but if you like a case that is really slim and doesn't add much bulk and feels nice. i think its a good case. i really miss the cruzerlite cases. they are good protection and they have good grip. i would give up my case for one of those in a heart beat. lol
Edit: here is some pics if it helps.
I've got one of those cheapo s-shape TPU cases and it feels great in the hand.
Thanks for the comments, guys. I think I am gonna get the SGP case. I watched some reviews on Youtube and It looks great..

Good choice. I've got pretty much all the most popular cases from the Ringke slim, to the incipio cases, a bunch of nice Mercury TPU cases. And my favorite for overall fit, feel and protection is probably the SGP Ultra Hybrid...

One question...
Guys, has anyone bought this case: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Design-Craf...897&pid=100015&prg=1006&rk=1&sd=261094047096& ? How does it feels in a hand? Please, post some photos...
P.S. Sorry for bad English
Cruzerlite tpu cases from Amazon are good and cheap.... And make you look like an Android nerd. Just got my wife and I a couple a few weeks ago. They had a buy 2 get one free sale at that time.

Any bumper cases out there for this phone? Really looking for a case which doesn't mess up the look of the phone
I have a black cruzerlite case that I got from amazon. It adds almost no bulk to the phone, and looks great! It's grippy, but doesn't stick to your pocket like a silicone case. I paid $13, with shipping.
U can have the diztronic one. It gives the phone a classy look indeed

I think the otter box is the best... little bulky but the best protection.

i've been really happy with the Incipio silicrylic hybrid case.
it's pretty rugged and i've had numerous drops without a scratch or anything. everything's covered and the buttons are easy to push.
i had the casemate hybrid before. that one was pretty good too but i didn't care for how the lip around the screen was grey.
Hello all,
I've had my S3 for over a month now and have been using it bare since day 1. I just can't find a thin and good looking case anywhere. So I'm here to ask you guys what cases are out there that you might suggest?
I'm looking for something, think/sleek, masculine colours , "lay on the table", under $25. Please no bulky cases like OtterBox or anything in that fashion. Those look nasty. LOL
Also looking for a good screen protector. I don't want to purchase the cheap ones at the mall for $1 a piece.
Thanks!
Happy New Year,
Brandon

Get the SGP curved crystal if you want to cover the entire screen. I have it applied right now and I can't even tell it's there.

Get the SGP curved crystal like the above says along with the SGP Modello case in black or gray. You may still be able to find them on ebay. It is a very slim tpu case. Good luck!
Thanks for the replies, guys! Seems like SGP is the way to go for screen protectors.
Anyone know why they like to discontinue their products after a few months on the market? I love the look of the Neo Hybrid, but the only way I can get them now is on Craigslist or eBay.
Take a look at dba cases and their JustLikeGlass screen protector, both are very nice.
best case for s3 = UAG.

The OP said no bulky cases, the UAG isn't exactly slim. The DBA slimgrip is a good, really thin case, and the complete ultra is a really thin full coverage case.
I know you said no otterbox cases but the commuter might be good in your case with a screen protector.. I have the defender series it comes with one and the Grey and white case goes flush with my white s3
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I'd suggest either the DBA Ultra or Incipio Faxion.
Slimest case would be the ringke slimlite imo
Sent from my Galaxy S3 using neighbors wifi
I have several cases and just received the Ringke Slim Lite case. It has to be the slimmest case in my collection but also the one offering the least protection. For $10 on Amazon you really can't go wrong with the case it feels really soft and I really like that my phone still keeps the skim profile it has.

Yup. I have it also. Only use it when relaxing browsing with the phone lol. Feels so good. The seidio surface has a similar coating, soft grip.

Ultra cases from DBA was the best solution for me because it's consisted of 2 parts so you can also mix the colors the way that suits you most.
I've been using the white TPU matched with a blue slate PC on a pebble blue S3.
