This is my review of the Genuine S3 Vent Case
Youtube Link
this is not an samsung official released
edit, I just noticed it's by anymode, it's not actually official samsung release, but release by anymode, samsung authorised accessories. supplier.
Samsung officially authorized it, so basically the same thing

Screen
Hard to tell from your video, does it have any lip to lift the screen off of a table if it is set down on the face? I think I can see one, but you mention that it won't protect the phone at all if it is dropped on the screen, which tells me that it doesn't stick out at all.

No it doesn't have any lip to protect the screen, a nice feeling case but not one for protection.

Yes there is. It's not big lip but just enough to raise the phone that the screen doesn't touch the table when placed face down. And I think this provides protection to most vulnerable parts of the phone: corners.

Yes it does. I think it's stupid. And there's no real use for it either: With a coin in it's place, it's not something i'd call very stable, so i rather keep the phone in my hand or have it leaning against something. And the looks could be more like in the s2s version. Other than that, i think it's a great case and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a minimal case that doesn't add to much bulk.
P.S. Just got the official slim case today (yes, the twin pack), so we'll see which one do i prefer...

I should have a replica mesh case soon which doesn't have the coin slot. Think if the quality is good it should be a wicked case.

Hi
I found this great looking case for only $12- $15.99 with screen protector.
The case has a plastic snap on and a rubber seal something similar to an OtterBox.
I order way before the phone came out, hope you check it out before they prices goes up..
they have different color.
here on ebay
For other color do the search with out WHITE on from for more color.
WHITE IMPACT HARD CASE COVER KICKSTAND SAMSUNG GALAXY S III 3 S3 ACCESSORY.

cheap option i guess but look great and feels strong - key element that makes it a good case compare to a gel type.
seller was: case_ology
Hope this help some of you, checking around this look similar to the Case Mate.

Sorry bro didn't mean to offend you in any way. Was not insulting you or your taste. It was my personal opinion of the case. The back of the case looks very unpleasant and uncomfortable in pocket. I do really appreciate the fact you purchased a product, took pictures of it, and gave your opinion of it for the community. It really does help with accessories selction. I'm going to do the same when I buy a case for mine.

Whoa. That's a hard case to swallow. Although I do have a case on my GS2, I do so reluctantly. A big part of the purchase of any of my phones are the looks. This case looks a bit overbearing for my tastes although I'm sure gives great protection.

yeah.. Is a little big.. Im a CCTV Tech. always on the move, My nexus S 4G just crack with a more stylish case that this time i wanted a more protective option.
The point is that for the $12.00 I paid this copy or whatever brand this is is not a bad option.
Would love the flip stylish one. This is a beauty of phone but avoiding any falls is the least i would want to worry with this haha.

Honestly, if i had to choose between this and the commuter i would pick this one up. Feels really solid and after a 10 mile hike at zion with some drops , it proved its point.

When you say a new case, do you mean holster/case? I was walking and my holster caught something and the clip broke off. The case is also squeaky and the lip of the case is getting loose and is starting to expose the plastic edges.

Cool. I'll fire off an email to them then. I have my zoogue cases and will probably order a UAG, commuter, or ballistic to hold me over.
Are you guys taking the case on and off frequently or just naturally happens?
And by proof, is the original packaging good enough?
Yeah the corners don't have a rail like the sides to snap into. They're sending me a complete otterbox to replace mine. Maybe they have fixed the design.

you can use the samsung ultra slim covers just without the battery door of the phone, works well. tried it right now.

worst case scenario: ad a LITTLE heat (like a tiny bit at a time) just to soften a tiny bit, and then push it closer to the battery. not too much, so you don't melt anything.
here my, it's a Box Wave case with no back cover. i don't use it much cause the power button is to stiff and the side grip feel like sh*t
I remember back in the day, those clear candy bar shape phones with the flashing lights inside was all the rage lol .. these phones just dont look as cool inside lol
What is best way to protect my S4 from cracking screen. I am scared to crack screen on it.
Any case ? or any screen protractor like zagg invisibleshield will work ?
Or any slim case or screen proctor combo ?
Only reason i gave up on s3 was crack screen.
My screen cracked even without dropping phone on s3 and replacement phone cracked too by dropping just from my pocket. so I moved to iPhone, but I love android.

Not dropping it.
No but really all you need is a case with a bumper that extends so the glass can't be the first thing to hit the hard surface. I've become a fan of cases that combine TPU and a hard barrier.

this plus a case,(personally I went with an otterbox) and you will never have a problem.
Get a tempered glass protector (I got mine from Spigen), and then a case. That will protect your screen.
I use an xoskins http://xoskins.com and a case. It doesn't have orange peel like other skins and won't get scratched with sand or lint. Cases I prefer otterbox
The defender is now $35 at amazon.com. i needed a case until my UAG gets here so i snatched a black one. Bestbuy pricematched. Wasnt digging the built in screen protector so i popped it out

So, the Otterbox is the one to get? If not, can someone enlighten me as to what case is "scratch free" and perfect?? They all seem to suck (or are being dissected by dorks).

Ya I bought one of the HTC cases knowing it was an issue. Thought I could just be careful with it. Lasted one day. Couldn't stop thinking about it. All I could think about was my beautiful black one being scratched up everytime I moved. I took it back the next day and ordered a poetic atmosphere case.
On the subject of the otterbox, I used a commuter otterbox on my evo lte and was very pleased with it. I hate the bulky defender case but the commuter really doesn't add much to it. Just an fyi and sharing my personal opinion.

How did you "pop out" the built in protector? I thought it was glued?
I'm using a defender, but have ordered the Tuff as Nuts model. I think I might go ahead and get rid of the external protector, since dust gets under there.
I plan to go commando, or nearly that, depending on if a thin TPU case will work with the "nuts" model - they are really stiff when new. I had one a while back for a different phone - great protection.

How did you "pop out" the built in protector? I thought it was glued?
I'm using a defender, but have ordered the Tuff as Nuts model. I think I might go ahead and get rid of the external protector, since dust gets under there.
I plan to go commando, or nearly that, depending on if a thin TPU case will work with the "nuts" model - they are really stiff when new. I had one a while back for a different phone - great protection.

Its really essy to do. Theres videos on youtube. Literally take your thumb and press the top out and when that pops out peel the rest out. Any glue you have left just peel off

Thanks for the tip. I just removed mine. I don't know what they were thinking with that piece of plastic. It only served to trap lint and dust between the plastic and the screen.

Yeah, I really liked it back on my HD2, but it does need to be sealed all around to be effective. The odd thing is that they got it right on the top, but not the bottom.
If u r gunna pop the screen protector out why not just go with the commuter. It's less bulky, just sayin.
Edit: maybe u have to have the belt clip?

The belt clip and the defender dose offer a little more protection then the commuter. Plus i like the feel of the defender

Has anyone tried to install a different screen protector on it? I want to remove my built in screen protector for the same reason of getting dust under. I still have the Zagg screen protector I got free from best buy but I don't really like the feel of it and the onion peel of it. I was thinking on getting a spigen screen protector, I wonder if the Glas slim protector from spigen will work with the defender? Let me know if anyone have tried this combination.
