[Q] Best SGS2 Cases Available

Hi,
I'm waiting for my Samsung Galaxy S II to arrive in the mail that I just bought on Ebay for $770 CAD. I was wondering what were the best cases available that won't detract from the phone's, 'sexyness'. Here are a few cases I thought looked nice on Ebay:
Barely There Case:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...00292&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_2449wt_1115
Leather 'Wallet' Case:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...58999&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_3824wt_1115
Mesh Case:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/Samsung-Genuine-...Accessories&hash=item2a119b4aec#ht_4050wt_957
Does anyone know what would be the best case for what I'm looking for? I'm focused on quality and looks rather than the price.
UPDATE: I just read the thread rules that stated "no advertising of any kind". Please note that I am not advertising these products. I am only posting them here for comparative purposes, with no intention to sell any products.
UPDATE 2: I bought the "barely there TOUGH" case. It was a little more expensive than the average case (I think it's going for 30 on ebay as of dec 16) but let me tell you, it is probably the only case you'll ever need for this phone. It feels like my phone is wearing a badass suit while still lookin fresh. Buy this case. You'll love it.

barely there and mesh case are similar..both are slim ,light.. both look perfect..
mesh case has holes that might help on heat transfer from the phone,and can be removed much easier than the barely there case..
both do not cover top and bottom of the phone(barely there protects about 0.5cm more)..
in terms of the two in my opinion mesh case is better,,
the other case protects much more..but makes your phone extra large..
its a matter of personal taste

I like the mesh case, but I doubt these cases will protect the phone from any falls. I really like the Rearth case, and the mesh case. I'm waiting now for a Case-Mate Pop case I'm going to review, which will be out in august or september as I was told from CM. The best thin cases? I really REALLY like the Rearth case. I reviewed it just yesterday, check out my sig for that. The Mesh case, which I also own, are very good, and leave the phone all sexy ... The CM cases, I don't like the barely there case series. I don't know why. It makes it look too plain.

ive got the mesh case in black look great on the phone and as already stated really easy to take on and off but it does collect dust and dirty under it like a magnet. plus probably not much protection if dropped

I've got the casemate tough n it is nice, stops dust n grease, would defiantly protect from a fall. However the phone gets stupidly hot n stays hot for ages. Just ordered a mesh case to see how that goes

I have the samsung mesh in white and it collected dust under it like nobodys business! It looks sooo sexy though! Solution? I ordered a Zagg maximum protection and installed it on the back and sides... Like stated before, the case is so easy to put on it wrapped right around it perfect and you cant even tell its there. So i am totally protected (from scratches) and still look sexy and slim.

Don't care for the mesh case... tops and bottoms are completely exposed.
I'm using the SGP Ultra Capsule in Soul Black, fantastic case.

I'm waiting for this case to be back in stock: http://www.senacases.com/samsung-cases/galaxy-s-2/ultraslim/
I love how thin this phone is and I dont want to ruin it with something bulky.

Check these out, not yet available but seems to be really good
http://www.otterbox.com/samsung-cases/samsung-cases,default,sc.html

Could someone please recommend a good slip-in pouch for the GS2?
I don't feel comfortable with the hard plastic cases, as they tend to harm the phone body after sometime..

Thanks guys,
I think the Ottercase looks the best so far, as it seems to have the most protection. My only concern is that it may make the phone look too bulky.
Any experience with these cases?

I bought this one... cheap and great

I've got both the Casemate barely there and the genuine mesh case (black with italic S character).
Both are thin, lightweight and adds a better grip without making it difficult to put the phone in and out of your pocket (I use tight pants ). In fact they are very similar, but the barely there has a bit more matte color, and is a tad more gray when compared to the completely black mesh case. Also the mesh case feels a tad better in the hand, and is easier to take on and off (it still sits firmly on the phone).
As you are talking about keeping the sexiness of the phone, I would recommend the mesh case But they both are good, so you won't be disappointed either way.

Thanks for your input Hrti!
I heard a few other people saying that the mesh case doesn't quite cover the whole entire phone. And while the 'sexyness' is a huge factor, I am more concerned about keeping the phone completely protected. Cuz I'd be devastated if anything ever happened to my baby. lol.
Keep the suggestions coming!

It's called the "Mucury" case, I can only find it on ebay.

Is it a good quality case? i.e. will it protect the phone from a fall at waist height?

Got mesh case, now back using the case mate tough. Not sure what the mesh cases point is, top n bottom completely exposed, its a dust magnet. My phone dropped from the arm of the sofa and it came clean off. I suppose it does look nice but if that's the main concern and you're not bothered about the non protection it provides you may as well not have a case. That's just my opinion anyway

Thanks for writing that - I dropped my phone last night indoors on a carpet, and I've always used the mesh case - but it popped straight off and the phone and the case were about a meter apart when they settled.... (phone was fine btw). It got me thinking if I dropped that on concrete or something it'd be pretty badly damaged!
Was looking at the case mate tough - and it's not till I just read your post now that it's convinced me to get one!

This case looks excellent. I'll be keeping watch on their blog from here on out to see when I can pre-order.

I had one on my s2. First week it was fantastic..
After that, garbage. The lining portion they provide stretches and causes a gap in between the back of the phone and the lining. Got pretty annoyed with it and threw it away.

They have updated it.
So what's different? In previous versions a silicone cover was used. However, we've updated the series is a new TPU material. This new material is still as soft and dust-resistant, but with added durability and protection. Perhaps the best update on the new Neo Hybrid for the Galaxy S3 is that there is absolutely NO sagging or expanding of the TPU cover due to heat from device.Great news to all Neo Hybrid fans out there!

It ses the harder material sits on the phone, while the softer TPU material is on the outside. Seems like that is scratches just waiting to happen. Now reverse that so that TPU inside, hard shell outside, and add an optional belt clip and I'll take 2!!!

Did you read the website?
The Galaxy S3 Neo Hybrid Case Series will be the same dual concept as the Galaxy S2 and iPhone. The case features a TPU cover with a hard polycarbonate frame. The TPU material protects the phone by absorbing shock from any accidental drops. The hard plastic frame protect the phone from scratches and scuffs. Having both the advantages of a hard and soft case makes the Neo Hybrid an all-around protective solution.

The frame (outside) is PC (hard). The cover, TPU, absorbs the shock.
Your phone wont be getting scratches with this case.

Bummer... the TPU is blue only the border of the hard case is white.

I've never clicked on their blog, and but they have really good stuff. Nano Clear Giveaway?? eek!

I'm really liking the look of this case. I just wish they had different color options for the backs. It says they're interchangeable for different looks. Well how can I get a different look if all the backs are the same?

Has anyone had this case on the Nexus or other phone? Are they high-quality cases? (They appear to be pretty darn good.)
I like how there still appears to be lots of room around the home button for my fat thumb! Many other cases seem to have a lower lip that protrudes close to the home button...
Thanks!

Black Bumper for S3 (HQ pics) Recommend!!

Let me start this review just by saying that i love bumper cases. I
have been looking over the internet to find the best bumper case for
our Galaxy s3. I came across this case. Its a STRONG silicone bumper
that completes me in every aspect.
First of all. Its cheap. I think that everyone can try a cheap case
and if they dont like it, they throw it to their dog. (hehehe) Guys,
seriously. this is the best bumper case i have seen over the internet.
Why? It has a nice touch when you are holding your
phone. VERY nice touch. You will want to just hold your phone because
it has a nice feel Second of all: PROTECTION. And i mean it. Front,
back and sides are fully protected.
Front side (screen): the case has a slight bump on the edges so if the
phone drops the floor, its still protected (floor not the road hehe).
Back: Again, the case has a bump on the edges. So if your phone drops
on the back, protected!!! if you want to lay down your phone on a
table: PROTECTED.
Sides: Full protection, which is obvious why: its the case hehe.
Buttons: FULLy accessible button, both power and volume buttons. They
are covered by a soft silicone so there are very easy to press
(compare to the other tpu case i have reviewed)
I dont know if there are more colours available. You must check on
sellers ebay site.
Rating: If this case would be rated its a rock solid 5/5. Believe me
on this. It defenently worths every peny guys. I even compare it with
a TPU bumper case, that i have reviewed last week, amd this is by far
better.
Enjoy the pictures. I tried to take as many as possible.
I will review more bumper cases in the near future so stay tuned.
You can buy this on this link:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Simple-Blac...620863?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3f1b0aa03f
if you find this review helpful, hit thanks

Nice review! Around the volume rocker it might need a little work but I've already ordered one of these.. 4$ shipped to Canada and it looks decent.
Thanks for the review!

You will like the case mate, i guarantee you that. Feedback when you get it so everyone knows from you too

I love the idea of this case, but had a similar one for my Galaxy Nexus which fell apart in a matter of days. Would be interested in reading an updated review of this one in a few weeks.

I have this case on my phone for a while and feels very steady guys. Note that i am snaping batteries daily, so the case comes on and off (by me i mean) and I havent got a problem so far.

Do you guys mean the material of the case degraded? This is all one-piece right? I was JUST shopping for my first bumper case and saw some aluminum ones that snap or screw together, but it seemed like the TPU ones are just a single piece of material and wrap around the edges.

Its a single piece mate. Plus you dont lose any signal plus its a snap in snap out plus its veryyy cheap

How does this fit with a zag shield?
Galaxy S3 Paranoid ROM.

I think that with the zagg shield you will be ok. The case has already a tight fit so its better not to use extra protection underneeth. I dont think you need zagf shield for the back cover because its already protected from the case.

If it is anything like the one for the Galaxy Nexus (and it appears to be the same), there is a hard plastic material used on the rear portions of the bumper, while the piece which surrounds the screen is flexible rubber. With the GN, the two materials separated.

Thanks for the review, I ended up buying the same one but in white. I'm guessing they come from china because this thing isn't going to arrive for like three weeks haha. Oh well whatever.
My clear diztronic tpu case is starting to turn yellow and blue from my jeans so I really need something else. For three bucks I hope it holds up for a little while.

Do you think the the bezel or screen would get damaged if I dropped it from pocket height and it hit the corner on cement? Just wondering if I should still be extra careful when using this bumper.

Favorite Gel Case

I tried 2 gel cases the mini suit and amzers both found on Amazon.com
The mini suit doesn't have a gel feel, and lacks protection. Here's the link for mini suit..
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=Amzer+note+10.1
Amzers case has a very jelly feel, and is also much thicker. The price is well worth the extra grip and protection. Which is my favorite thing about the case. It helps you grip the enormous 10in display comfortably without fear of slippage.
http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-AMZ9466...id=1359557273&sr=8-1&keywords=Amzer+note+10.1
All in all if you want the cheapest case you can get to prevent back scratches go with mini suit. If you actually want a grippy protective gel case go with the Amzer. Both cases come in many colors, and at only $20 for the amzer, and $10 for the mini suit($5 shipping included) they are both a steal!
Please remember to thank post if you found it helpful!

Been thinking about getting amzer case, but have read a few reviews that say the silicon doesn't sit flush with the tablet. And that's, my one concern, tell us about it in y your opinion, and photos would be great thanks

Hey man, So I was about to post pics for you but my phone kinda crapped out. Sent it into samsung so it should be back in the next 2 weeks. I will try to borrow my GF's GS3 to take some pictures later.. Unfortunately I am using a basic Huawei Android ATT Go phone in the mean time. No flash ****ty 3MP camera wouldn't really show you what you want to see.
I will be honest though, my thoughts about the amzer case where exactly that it was an amazingly snug and good fit. All the speakers/mics/camera/everything is all flush.

I have the amzer. It is thick and heavy. Loads of protection though. It covers all the silver except for speaker grills. There is a YouTube clip I think.

The amzer is definitely thick and good on protection.

Good

agreed

Im not sure if your aware of the newer types of polymers used for gel cases nowadays. They are more dust resistent. In short I dont have a huge dust issue when using the amzer gel case. It stays fairly clean and if it attracts an occasional cat or dog hair theyre not statically glued to the case! Hope this helps!​

I have the mini suit and it's great. Fits snugly and all the holes match up. I have a handmade leather case for my note and the mini suit is good to use when I'm walking around with it.

Suggest Of A Case

Hellow everyone,
I am really searching to find something good to protect my Htc One but in the same time to not make it double or triple of it;s original size.
I was seeing the Incipio Products Like Feather, Frequency And Carbon Fiber , also the Htc One Original Cases .Plus would be nice to buy these alluminiun cases??? What you would suggest me to buy. By the way along with the case i am planning to buy a screen protector like the Mime Ghost Glass for Htc one.
Your Opinions would be very helpfull.

I bought this case: http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-FlipBo...qid=1377379829&sr=8-3&keywords=htc+one+poetic
It's slim and looks good. Doesn't provide a crazy amount of protection but it's enough for me to not worry about it in my pocket or setting it down anywhere, and I like the flipbook style. You can also still use a screen protector with it.

funny, on this link, with the phone in the case, it looks like there are cut-outs for the camera (and the noise cancellation mic), but there is on picture of the entire case without the phone in it, and there appears to be no cutouts for the camera. I would imagine that there ARE cutouts for the camera, no?

Yes, there are two cutouts on the back: one for the camera/flash and another for the mic. You're right though, the pics are misleading. I had seen this case in the wild before I bought it so I knew what I was getting. Also for that price you can't really go wrong.

Well i was thinkinh the Incipio Dual Pro with Silicone...

Just tried a skin and bumper combo. Best compromise between protection and looks IMO. Nothing will top an otterbox for protection, but makes phone very bulky and it overheats too easily when using navigation.

this one I got a few weeks back, and it is the best case I could imagine for the One! Protection all around, wrapping over the edgres where the screen is. All buttons covered solid, and these covers help to push the Power/Vol buttoms. I can only say, I am totally happy with this case! A bit pricey, but worth every penny. Gives the One a real trendy look, and is available in different colours- I got the black/black one

Those look much nicer, there is no design to wear off, check out UAG though.

I had this case and I don't know if anyone else had this problem but whenever I took a picture with the flash there was a tinge around the picture from the silicone of the case.
