I have this case/holster. it does have a ratcheting clip on the holster btw. anyway what I was gonna say is regarding the screen protector. I had a screen protector on my phone before getting this case. I tested out the screen responsiveness with the ballistic SP over my SP and it suffered badly. So i chose not to use it. Maybe I will try to remove my SP and try the ballistic SP on it one day.

This case is great,
Cons: Smells horrible, Smells like petroleum (which it is made of) if the phone is a foot away from me it is very potent.
Needs a kickstand.

My maxx case came in the mail the other. I put it on right away just to find out the hard back cover doesn't stay on the rubber case. That sort of got me upset. Even the screen cover layer was a bit deformed. It was concave inward, not straight. Anyone else had a similar experience?

Its great. It's thin and durable (I use it without the optional outer rubber layer). Covers the ports of headphones and charger. There are also plastics films to protect the camera lens and flash lens. Only annoying hindering aspect would be the power button and home button. You need press with a bit of force. Taking it off is a hassle too, but I knew that when I purchased it. I popped off the built in screen protector since I have a zagg hd on mine, so I can't comment on that. It feels great and the kick stand isn't flimsy. Overall it is a great product.

I like the commuter case better too. And it fits in to the Siedo surface holster well.
how is the defender thicker than the commuter case?by how many mm? mind telling?

The defender case is not a good case. At least that has been my experience. Loved it on my Evo 3D as it kept it very safe and secure, on the Galaxy Nexus it has caused damage.

That sucks that the member above had such a bad experience with this case. I have to think that somehow that particular case was defective. My Nexus doesn't move around one bit, even with the standard size battery. No movement at all. I also show no signs of wear whatsoever around the earpiece and ff camera. I've used this case almost exclusively since December 23rd.

I used the Defender series with my Galaxy Nexus with extended battery and it fits. Although, I too thought about removing the screen protector. It seems to take away from the screen vibrancy. I never liked or used screen protectors and dont like it on my case.

Define "Best" there are MANY different "BEST" cases out there... check out my review of Otterbox Defender in Atomic color. I love it, but some might hate it.
I get a lot of compliments from people about the funky color...
Honestly, if you're looking for a case that can offer a great protection from almost everything but water... look no further. Otterbox has been manufacturing quality and very well designed cases for many years. Also, if you get it from amazon, you save about $20. just my two cents!
Like someone else said, "best" is cometely objective. My best may not be your best.... However, I prefer the Ballistic SG Maxx. If you search the accessories forum you'll find a mini review i did with some pics.

It's bold yes, but I don't think screen protectors are necessary. Cases yes. But a screen protector won't stop your screen from cracking or shattering if dropped, it'll help stop scratches. But gorilla glass is design to resist most scratches already.
My over 2 year old epic's screen still looks brand new. Even after drops and kicks...Just my personal opinion.
Kinda glad the trident kraken doesn't come with a built in one.

People who say the built in screen protector pops out i think have another protector on under it. Me and my gf both have the defender but had ivisor screen guards on the phone also.

Why no mention of Seidio cases? I have been using their cases for my last few phones and they are great. My GS3 case has a magnetic metal kickstand and looks nice. It also feels well protected. I don't use a screen protector though as I also prefer naked. Personally, I think screen protectors offer a false sense of security on modern gorilla glass screens.

I need a screen protector that covers the entire front of the phone, so that nothing is exposed. I work machining metal and would easily mess up any uncovered area.

This. Aside from the average screen protector provided, this case is sexier, thinner, and more ergonomic in my hands than any of the otterboxs. The smooth matte finish is fantastic with great grips on the side to make sure you have a nice grasp of your phone.
I think eventually, since this screen protector does not curve at the edges, nor does it completely cover the screen, I will purchase a higher grade protector for that final bit of comfort. This is a fantastic case that guards the phone at every angle.
My heart still wants a UAG though..

Got the FlipBook today and it is a very nice sleek case. The cover is heavy so it closes very nicely. It lookes luxury. It fits mutch better than the original HTC flipstand cover I have. The original I like to both it's a bit to loose in my opinion.
Got the clear Poetic case to that one fits so tight that it hard to get it of again. It's very nice.
Came with a letter from Poetic that all costumers how both one will get a free update in may because the remote control does not work with the case because of block by white button.

I've had it for about a week. Very nice fit and finish. Very slim. As one poster mentioned, there's no mechanism to keep the flap closed (no magnet or snap). There's a fair chance it'll flap open if dropped and not provide much protection. However, I got this case primarily to protect the glass face in my pocket etc. and it's definitely less slippery than the naked phone.
:good:
Was browsing around and just saw this. Costs much more, but someone might be interested.

I've been using the Poetic FlipBook case for about 2 weeks now. It's great -- the cover is heavy enough that it stays shut except when upside down, and is nice because I can 'swing' it open with one hand with a little force.
I usually take my phone out of it at night or at work (I have a dock for work) - it pops right out if you peel back 2 corners, but holds it very sturdy otherwise. I've dropped the phone once, and it protected the corner that hit the table - better yet, it didn't leave a single mark.
The cover and back feel nice to the touch, and it's nice not worrying about using a screen protector or anything when it's in my pocket. Adds very little weight to the phone.
I like my phone naked, but if I'm out and about, that's not exactly 'smart' so this case keeps the phone classy, gorgeous, and has a practical application. Just make sure not to get sand or something on the inner front cover!
Do you guys find the cover lays flat when shut even after being folded backwards during phone use? I have a Nilkin flip case on my Nexus and after fold it backwards it wont lay flat when closed anymore. I just ordered the flipbook for the m7 and am going to be really bummed if it suffers from the same problem.

Good to know. Mine arrives tomorrow, stoked!
I've had an Otterbox Defender for my S3 now for quite awhile. The silicone over the plastic shell always seems to stretch over time causing a loose fit. I know you can contact customer support and have a new case sent to you from Otterbox, but I figured there had to be something to tighten the silicone up. After browsing the web, I heard that if you boil the silicone for a few minutes in boiling water, it will tighten it up. I figured I'd give it a try and it actually did work, the case now fits like it did when it was new.
How long did you boil it? I stopped using my defender because of this issue
Boiled it for about 2 minutes. If your silicone is stretched too far though it won't go 100% back to normal. It will help though that's for sure!

HAHA BUDDY!!!! Same thing here! I love my BodyGlove ToughSuit!!! Gray/White Version Here! I got sick and tired of the OtterBox Warranty claims, however this is the first device I've had the stretching issue with an OtterBox...
I also had the same issues, solved them (temporary) by heating up the rubber in a microwave. Well, the rubber still started to stretch again after some time, I contacted Otterbox and received a brand new Otterbox Defender which still looks very good. I´ve removed the screen protector though
Ive just stopped using my defender because of this reason, and I won't buy another one again because of it.......... thought they were supposed to be the best.......
Well, unfortunately there is hardly a similar case available which 1) offers some protection and 2) looks somehow decent and fancy enough the be used on a daily basis.
There are some similar chinese cases available which also offer a hard plastic shell and some rubber around...but look in my oppinion rather ugly than a regular Otterbox Defender.
Have a look at this one : http://www.amazon.de/yuba-RoboCase-...1367166500&sr=8-2&keywords=galaxy+s3+survivor
Since the support was kind enough to me, though I bought my case used in another board and didn´t receive a invoice, I may still consider to use other Otterbox Cases with other devices.
The stretching isn't the only flaw with these cases. The clips that hold the two plastic portions together also seem to break after awhile. Guess you can't complain too much when they send another free though.
