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.

This case is pretty nice!! Great protection and doesn't at too much bulk at all. The material feels amazing in your hand. Side note , it also fits in the holster of Verizon's shell holster combo !!

I love it....and I hate cases. One question before I order it. Is the power button cut out? Does work well unlocking screen or is it a little tough. Thanks for the heads up on a great looking case.

also is it a dust bunny or is it like TPU
I got the exact same one but in red off Amazon for about $10. It's a great case, and I love it.
The power button seems easier to press IMO but it is a pain to remove the thing because sometimes the battery cover comes off when removing, but that just means that it's a tight fitting case and I highly recommend it.

I've had it for about 2 weeks now. No dust issues on my black/red case.
I really like this case as well, and for the $7 shipped from Amazon, it really can't be beat.
picked up one of these as well, black/black, fits well and little added bulk. This is the first phone case I've actually liked.
I bought the same case except clear smoked on the whole back and black on the sides. A lot like the awesome Griffin REVEAL case for the first incredible

I'm not big on cases, especially since my car dock won't accommodate the DINC 2 with a case, but i picked one up due to the great reviews. It will be nice to have if I'm doing something besides going to the office.
Ahh that yellow one looks pretty awesome. I'm tired of having all-black cases and this OtterBox Defender needs to go, just makes the phone too bloated and have a hard time getting to the Q and P on the GB keyboard. This will defintely be my next case!
To each his own
I bought that case in black/red and also a tpu black case with a wave pattern. I hated the TPU/plastic black/red that you are referencing didn't even put it on didn't like the feel of it.
The TPU black case has a wave pattern that makes it much better to grip and doesn't show smudges that much due to the pattern. The TPU wave case was noticeably slimmer. I still wish I had a slimmer case but the wave case is quite nice.
I think I got it from the link below.

Edit: They are on sale for 4 bucks I am getting a wave tpu red case and white one as well!
The only thing I hate is that it is not easy at all to take off the case.. I always get the back cover stuck in the case and can't get it out..

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

Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
I like the look of otterbox better, but tridant has the kick stand...so depends on what you think you'd use more. I had an otterbox on my phone for a while but realized the bulk was too much since I baby my phone. I'm sure same would be for the trident. If you drop ur phone a lot or do a lot of hiking with it, bulk it up....but otherwise it really takes away from the slim design.

I haven't seen an AMS until now, ordered mine. 34.95 on amazon.
I have the otterbox defender case. The back of my holster clip locks in so it can be a kickstand. Its very bulky but it works.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I have the trident aegis. With trident cases, the plastic is on top of the silicone when you put it on, with silicone sticking out on the corners. That way, the silicone doesn't easily stretch like it does on the otterbox. Especially if you take off your case on a regular basis. I have the defender for my ipod touch, and I've used it on other devices as well. In my opinion, the screen protector is horrible as well. The worst I've ever used(yes its worse than those cheap ones you can get off ebay in a 3 pack for 3 dollars). Trident cases also have dust covers over the mic and speaker grill, whereas the otterbox does not. So I say go with the Kraken. It would be worth it.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Thanks. I decided to but the Otter from BestBuy, and also order the Kraken online to try both out when the Kraken gets here. The first day with the Otter was terrible with the screen protector, but now it's a lot better, since I guess it either stuck to my screen better, or O got used to it. Does anyone know the quality of the built in protector for he Kraken? And also, one last thing, if I were to drop the Kraken, since the outside is; plastic, how durable is that plastic. Because the thing I like the most is he outside rubber for the Otter.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Just got my Kraken today, absolutely love it. As for the screen protector, I threw it away, didn't even bother with it. I've had ghost Armor on all of my phones as well as my wife's phone, I get a new one put on once a month and have never had a problem. The plastic around the Kraken is very durable and wouldn't be worried if I drop the phone. I'm coming from an Aegis, a lot better protection and I've owned otterboxes before, Kraken from here on out for me.

i just got this case a few days ago and i like it so far. im coming from an otterbox, which i started to not like that much after the rubber outer layer began to get weak. im sure i could probably contact otterbox about it and they would likely send another one. but i wanted to give the kraken a shot since i really like the aegis and my only contention with it was that there was no kickstand or belt clip. i have to get used to the texture, hard and a lil slippery is much different from the otterbox's soft grippy exterior...but not a downer by any means. also, i found the screen protector to be decent and actually a welcome edition. i was ready to go without it or use a Realook screen saver that i have, but the one that comes with the Kraken is nice and im not having an issue with it at all.
one issue i do have with the Kraken is that they didn't design it with a hole for the indicator light (top right). i actually use mine and when im doing in the field and my phone is on silent. so that would be a good thing to adjust if they can for future designs.
Be different, go trident... I see too many otterboxs.. Mostly on iphones though

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.

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.

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.

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..
