Spigen SGP Ultra Crystal has been DISCONTINUED; get Nano instead - Galaxy S III Accessories

I just got confirmation by email from Spigen that they have discontinued their UltraCrystal line of screen protectors for the Galaxy S3 due to many reports of it peeling up on the edges where the display curves.
Here's the email:
""Thank you for contacting SPIGEN.com Customer Service Department.
Hi, my name is Michelle from SPIGEN.com.
Yes, it is true that we have discontinued the Galaxy S3 line for the time being due to a possible adhesive defect.
The Ultra Nano will be our most updated design for our Ultra Steinheil screen protector series.
If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again.
Thank you.""
Here's an example photo from the international S3 forum:

So, if you've ordered the UltraCrystal from Amazon (as I have), it's probably best to return it for a full ($14) refund. If you ordered directly from Spigen, contact them, and they'll send you a new Ultra Nano free of charge; no need to return anything.
(Here's another thread talking about this)

Are UltraClear and UltraCrystal the same thing? I just ordered the latter on Amazon today.

Ah, derp, you're right - it's Crystal. I'll update the original post. Thanks.

I already posted in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1725552
But I wanted to share my experience with SGP and the Ultra Crystal screen protector here too for my American internet people. I emailed SGP today regarding exchanging my Ultra Crystal screen protectors for the Nano since the Ultra Crystal have been discontinued and this and the response I got:
Hi, my name is Diana from Spigen.com.
There is no need for you to return the product back to us. We will gladly send you an upgraded product without the hassle of going through an exchange. Keep the Ultra Crystal as a gift and we will instead be sending you an Ultra Nano to the same shipping address on your original order. We will be receiving shipments for the Ultra Nano early next week. As soon as we receive shipments for this product, we will be able to ship out a package to you.
If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

That's freaking awesome if you ask me! I don't actually have to DO anything and they're going to send me the newer Nano version free of charge.
For anyone who has already ordered and/or received the Ultra Crystal screen protectors, I strongly suggest you shoot SGP an email requesting a replacement. Hopefully they'll have the same good will toward everyone.
I must say, I knew very little about SGP a few weeks ago, but from this point forward I will have a HUGE amount of respect for them and their apparent business practices.
Good luck everyone! :good:

thanks. will return mine to amazon and get the nano.

I actually have the Rearth Ringbo Screen Protector. It comes with 2 of them, I think. Didn't really examine closely since I don't have the actual phone yet. So why don't one of you just send your phone over this way and I can apply the protector and write the reviews for you guys?
But seriously, SGP is really class for doing this. They could just ignore the issue at hand and continue selling these as if nothing was wrong. Perhaps a lesson for AT&T

I also put an order. Now we see how long it takes before it gets to me in Sweden.
Just placed an order for my new 101 and see how long for it to reach Singapore. Hopefully before 2010 ends.
i ordered mine on the 16, but hasn't arrived yet, they have great prices, just their delivery service its slow if you choose free shipping
I've got mine yesterday and I installed it,
It's a must have!!! fits perfect and easy installation.

Does it help glare any? Finding that to be one of the more annoying bits on my daily train ride.

how does the skinomi help with glare?
Also interested in whether it helps with glare...
But also interested in those that got the carbon fiber cover... is it nice? Tacky? Decent? I get my 101 tomorrow so I will see how I like it (thus what a clear cover would look like), but I was intrigued by the CF cover. I realize everyone's taste differs, just wondering how the execution of the CF cover is.. if it looks halfway decent it might be fun to get.

It doesn't. I had their screen protector and I didn't notice a difference in glare
(good or bad).
Something about putting a bunch of stickers on my
tablet, doesn't seem like it'd help, very much, like
a true silicone wrapped skin might.
Just my opinion.

Pop Case
Tough Case
Order: http://www.clove.co.uk/accessories/samsung/samsung-galaxy-nexus/protection
Where are we ordering these from?
I am also very very interested in the Barely there case. But I am wondering why the case doesn't show up on the case-mate store???
yep, i talk with case mate Distributor here (israel) and he is promise that he will have it here on stock in a week.
What does this mean? Will it be on stock within a week for...dunno, amazon.de for example?
dono, we have price list here,
the Barely There for 25.5 euro, popup for 37.5 and Tough for 40 (inc tax)
I'm a huge fan of their tough case, I hope they make one for the US Verizon version. The barely their case is pretty awesome as well if you don't need as much protection.
Expansys says stock due on the 23rd of December. Thats quite a wait...
Anyone know of anywhere with stock now?
www expansys com/case-mate-barely-there-cases-for-galaxy-nexus-black-225754/
PS Sorry about the link. Still not at 8 posts.
NO where from what i can tell. it's not even listed on their official site. just got back from oxford circus and there are no accessories what's so ever for the phone out
I'm wondering why the pop case lacks a cutout for the noise canceling microphone.
Has it even been confirmed that the galaxy nexus does indeed have a noise cancelling mic?
A quick google search doesn't bring up anything official.
I don't know for sure but I assumed it was that small hole at the top-right. The hole is there on the "Barely There" and "Tough Case" but seems to be missing on the Pop Case.
I haven't had an account here long enough to post links but if you do a google search for "RTR2STXJ" the first result will be a high-res image of the back of the Galaxy Nexus. Right where those cases have the hole you can see a small hole on the phone itself at the edge of the seam.
Just ordered mine from Clove + screen protector also. Wonder when they'll get them in

Which did you get mmcclair? the tough or barely there? I am considering barely there. let us know how you got on!
I've ordered the tough case from Clove. It's been dispatched so I guess they're all in stock and ready to go. I'll probably post a few pics once I get it.

2 mics are mentioned. This indicates noise canceling (otherwise, why 2 mics??)
This is the landing page for the LTE version, but I don't see why the GSM version would suddenly not have 2 mics.
Besides, noise canceling is a pretty basic feature on modern phones.
I wanted to order the barely version but stock are not in as of yet, checked quite a few UK sites who are all awaiting delivery.
So I ordered the Flexishield number as an interim case.

Amazing Orzly OnePlus One accessory bundle Pack (pictures included)

Hi guys,
I thought I'd share this as I ordered and have already received my pack I bought a glass screen protector from these guys a while ago, and a couple days ago they sent an email advertising this accessory pack, all for only £24.99! They're glass screen protector alone is £14.99 so with all rest the for a tenner I thinks it's a brilliant deal.
Anywho I already have the glass screen protector, but having an extra one wouldn't hurt plus all these cases to choose from it's a pretty neat. Came home from work to find it had already arrived, absolutely chuffed to bits with all the cases, I'll most likely be mixing and matching in the next few days to find my favourite. I've attached a few pictures for you guys so you can see whats in the pack and also the cases that I ordered.
Let me know if you have any questions about the cases I've got I'll be happy to answer them
Thought I'd share this with my fellow OnePlus-ions if any of you are looking for cases or a good deal.

Wow, what a fantastic deal! I've used Orzly before for their Oneplus Glass screen protector so I'm surprised I didn't see any offers like this. But it's still good enough value to have a second one just for the cases alone, so I've ordered one. :fingers-crossed:
Thanks for posting this deal!

Hi!
The list for Orzly on Amazon has been listed by me I own Techtail India.
We are the only authorized Distributors for Orzly in India we have just started the partnership. All the items list are imported from orzly UK with Bill and are Duty paid.
The reason for the price difference is other sellers are buying from international Amazon sites and then are selling in India, are aim is to keep the price on par with US price and in long run as the numbers increase be even cheaper currently we are slightly higher then the US listing because of lots of external factors
Regards,
Samir

most of my oneplus one geeky mates have a Orzly oneplus one case. My mate just said when he first got the one plus one no one had cases apart from these guys
I have just ordered the case on there website which is called the invisicase. Im definitly going to buy the oneplus two and since im going to be paying so much for this phone and not getting it on contract i want it properly protected.
Anyway i will update you all if and when it arrives. Knowing my luck i wont end up getting the phone anytime soon they are doing all this invite only stuff again
Love these guys cases! Currently using the OnePlus One and looking forward to the OnePlus Two.
Currently using their Fusion Case, it's my number one choice of case. Will be ordering one soon for the OnePlus Two. The one for the OPO is spot on! Here's a few pictures just so you know which case I am talking about.
I love Orzly cases. But why are they not up on amazon if they are up on there site?
I prefer to buy my cases from amazon, they have a great no nonsense returns policy
Is FlexiSlim Smoke White Transparent?
Hi!
Good news for all those fusion case fans the new ones for Oneplus 2 will come with a special scratch protection coating so it will no longer be a scratch magnet
They should be up for preorders on Amazon India by next week
We at Diztronic will also be releasing a "fusion" style case for the OnePlus Two, but ours will be a bit different. I'll post details in the coming weeks.
Specifically we'll have 3 models:
Full Matte TPU
Ultra TPU
TPU + Polycarbonate, this case doesn't have a name yet. I promise I won't name it fusion since so many before us already have

Possibly try their website. I know a few of them are not in yet, but a couple of their cases are in stock and ready to ship. Also could just be Amazon with the lead times on when cases are available. I can't imagine it taking until September to get cases in stock

They do have amazing skins, that I can vouch for.
This is their first official case and screen protector. It does look good from whatever information we have. I have ordered them and the expected delivery is in February. Will update with a review when I receive it.

I had their original grip case for the Pixel 2XL. It was just a bumper case but was certainly very grippy. Overall it was a bit too bulky and ugly tbh. V2 appears to be a full case and it looks much better in my opinion. If it's the same quality as the original with this new design, I'm sure it'll be great
Curious how good the prism.... The case looks nice but I doubt it protects the cell as well as my otter box defender...

Looks like not shipping yet, but I would like to know how that screen protector fits, my wife is using one of those cheap amazon tempered glass ones that don't quite stick and it's awful, I just keep it in a spigen case that has been great, but sometimes I worry about the screen.

I sent them an email as to when it's shipping. Id like something more specific other than "February"
I ordered too,...keep us posted on the response you get. Thanks for giving them an email.
