Cool snap on case/back bumper - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hey fellas i couldt find topic about this type of case here so here i go. I ordered this http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=130675793254&index=0&nav=SEARCH&nid=17911119589 its looking good so far but ill post few pics one it arrives. I heard that some of those cases chip off and that the aluminum looks like crap in few weeks but since this is close to the original color I hope it wouldn't. Either way expect a follow up.

I have that case. It looks good far away but not so great up close. Still a good case if you decided to get one.

Looks gaudy, wish they have a matte finish one.

(Temporarily Out Of Stock) SGP Slider Vibrant! Come and get 'em!

Ok, I just happened to notice they finally have the Slider case for the Vibrant in The SGP Store.
Yesterday they still weren't up yet.
Remember, this is for the Vibrant and not just another i9000 case.
Here is the link:
http://www.sgpstore.com/index.php/cPath/23_29
I'm picking one up ASAP!
EDIT 9/2/2010: Apparently The company has run into some production problems.
That is why the cases have been delayed.
The entries have since been removed from their website.
Is that the same as the magenta one in tmobile stores?

no, it's not a silicone case.
It is a slider case.
Very nice and sleek
ARRRRG!!! theyre not in stock yet!
Edit: I ran to get my CC
Actually, T-Mobile does offer a similar case to the Slide cases mentioned, and only in the magenta color (so far, anyway).
Just for kicks, I tried it on my phone, but the plastic just seems cheap and it doesn't feel all that secure where the parts join. I would hope that the SGP ones are better quality than the no-name ones T-Mobile offers.

Hmm, Thanks for sharing!
i kinda does look like it
Do you mind taking more pictures of the case on/off the phone?
Ty
best looking cases for this phone imo. wish it had a little kickstand type thing. . .
Looks awesome, buying ASAP!
Title says it all
But on related note, is the included screen protector good? I was planning on ordering a realook one but hey, if this gets the job done without ruining the screen quality...
Are these glossy casses and do they provide grip? Also if they are glossy wouldn't they start to get scratched up when putting them down on hard surfaces?...anyone know?
I am dying for a white one. These are the nicest cases I have seen for the vibrant thus far.
Pretty sweet I dig them too just not sure what color...hmmm white or blue...
If they would just hurry up and get these in stock...

Im going with the "storm trooper" look myself .
Anyone got one yet? Someone post a short review of fitment. Hoping that the case fits well and stays intact unlike some other ones with similar install style.
I hope this version doesn't have a cutout for the antenna.
The pics definitely have the antenna cutout. Hopefully these are just sample pics.

Hope you can do a little review once you get it.
Those Ultra Silke silicone cases look quite nice, especially if their claims of them not being sticky/tacky are true.
these need to come out like NOW!

rearth ringke slim GN case

I just purchased this case, and I'm a little excited and concerned. Its a beautiful case( I got the white one), but I'm a little worried about the protection. Has anyone had any bad experiences with this phone? Or good ones too?
This is the link to the case.

I didnt really like the case. The protection seems minimal and I had a lot of trouble taking it off and on at first.
It's an excellent case with awesome support and great protection. taking it off is a bit difficult the first couple of times, then gets easier. I love it.but there is a whole thread for it,I fail to see the reason to start a new one.

I just purchased the matte black Ringke SLIM case tonight since it's back in stock. I wanted the metallic one, but I rather not wait till May for it. Also ordered the 3 for 2 Cruzerlite TPU's just in case. always nice to have back ups and color options.

Don't worry about protection, I thought the same thing till I dropped my phone on hard concrete from about 4". My phone turned off that was it, not even a point of contact where the case meet the floor...I was shocked. At first I was worried that it turned off, but considering there's no absorbing material, I see why. It booted back up and no problems since, been about 3 weeks. I have the metallic one also and blend perfectly with the phone, I love it though.
And I went overboard buying the androidified tpu cases...I bought 8, awesome cases but haven't used then since I got the ringke slim.

just ordered this today, I really like my casemate barely there case but it's only available in black http://www.case-mate.com/Samsung-Ga...ases/Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-X-T-Mobile-Cases.asp , and incipio feather case has blue but it's around $25. http://www.incipio.com/Samsung-Gala...Mobile-feather-Ultralight-Hard-Shell-Case.asp
I have 4 kinds of cases including diztronic and d3o flex. but I like this kind of case more. so for $3 it's not bad.
Does this case cover the bottom of the phone and around the corners? I can't really tell from the pictures.

I dig it. It doesn't look like this comes in other colors though. The blue is a bit bright. Black would be cool.

you can buy it in the first 2 links , blue and red. and no I'm not the seller
just received my case today , fits like my case mate barely there case. which was broken (last pic) but I got a replacement from cs.
So how does the back feel on this one? I like the TPU because it keeps things from slipping around in the truck. The TPU case is a bit bulky for my taste and i would like this if it can keep it from sliding around.
Hey guys ive been trying to find those cases on ebay but i cant get anyting even close. Any suggestions on a case like this? I found Incipio case but its $25 and I dont think it justifies its price. Please help me out here
Nvm that found the incipio case for $15 bucks on ebay.

I got the speck candy shell and it is very nice one piece though
The case is nice I just got it so haven't tested out it looks really sturdy

any flaking issue yet?
seems like a finger print magnet. is there a matte version?
No problem yet nothing is coming off yet never tried spec I'm more usually in trident and otter I ordered both of those see which of the 3 is best

Tried taking the phone out of the case yet? I thought I was gonna break the gs3 when taking mine out. I sent the case back and canceled my order on a black one..
Don't ever order black Candyshells; they show their scratches right away. Always order light colors. Speck makes great cases, but this time I went with the Casemate Pop. The Speck does offer better camera-area protection though because the Casemate pop leaves it uncovered (although still protected).
Why dont attatchments show up for me?? I want to see this case
I had a speck for the HOX and let me tell you, it was VERY hard to take off. I got a Incipio Silicrylic and it's worked better for me.

Yea. I just got the blue colored one at T-Mobile store and man, it's a really nice case. It fits tight but is easy to take off and it doesn't raise a screen protector or make me feel like I'm gonna break my phone in half.
I should've bought this case before I ordered so many others. I'm completely happy with the Incipio.
Side note: I'll still try other cases though.

I would like your opinion about this case.

Lately i have seen a lot of posts about broken gs3 screens, and i'm really afraid that something like that could happen to my beloved gs3.
At this moment i am using a regular silicon case, which i don't believe gives me enough protection.
So i have been researching the best case to protect my phone without adding much bulkiness.
I found this option on amazon and it seems quite interesting....and good looking.
http://www.amazon.com/Urban-Armor-G...TF8&colid=1DR9PV9J5Z87D&coliid=I3VQFO7QIOFFZM
A little expensive but if protects my gs3 i won't care
So...what do think about it guys ?

It looks abit bulky but should do the job.
But maybe take a look on ebay for it. Maybe find it a little bit cheaper
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Looks too One X or death star to me. It totally ruins the elegant look the GS3 goes for.
If I and to get a bulky case, I would go for Capdase armor jacket. Although I am not sure if the Aluminum kills reception or not.
Nahh...i've droped mine a couple of times with and without a tpu case and not a single scratch mate....
I also saw some drop/durability tests and i've seen the S3 is strong!
Maybe the first units had durability issues...?
Anyway i would spend money if i were you...
But if you want to stay free of guilts not buing a decent case undoubtly get an otterbox!
they're simply the best!You wont regret it....
Seems like good protection, but I like more the looks of the Otterbox Commuter for a "bulky case" (And I've heard is one of the betters in matters of protection). I'm supposed to get an Incipio Silicrylic any time this week, I decided to go for it because I thought a Commuter was overkill for my daily use and the Incipio seems to be stylish. I hope I don't regret that choice
Also, I think this should be in the Accessories section?
Well for what i have seen it the thinnest of the bulky cases. That is why i've got so interested. Also it looks pretty bad ass.
But i will check all your suggestions too.
I am still searching for a case to my new toy..the N7.

Just got mine from US to UK, took less than a week to arrive
After 2 official samsung flip cases fell apart (1 in first 10 days) I saw this and liked the look of it.
It's obviously more bulky than before but not enough to bother me. It's fairly lightweight too. Having side protection as well as the cool looking back won me over.
It Cost me £28 including delivery. Having spent over £16 (£30rrp) before on the samsung cases I can tell you the quality is far superior.
You get a screen protector included too (after a lot of time and swearing trying to fit the bast**do with no dust trapped) looks pretty good.

I've had my urban armor case for about a week and I love it so far. It gives good protection and feels great in the hand.

My White UAG case just came in the mail today, so far i love it. Has a nice feel to it, not bulky at all and feels like a sturdy case. For $20 i wasnt gonna pass it up black/white combo looks nice on the white S3 :good:
I use the otterbox defender,does what it says on the tin.
But it hides my beautiful phone.
