I like it.

PREORDERED ¡¡!! Best price, no tax for me and they are in NY I believe and I'm in NJ so shipping should be fast when released, this case kicks the crap outta anything out there and I def would pay a premium to keep my xoom safe. Great find I was watching this case on eBay and was on the fence cause of their price but this site has them way cheaper.

Pre-order in the UK too at Mobile Fun
Otterbox XOOM case
Few other XOOM cases too

thanks a ton!
ordered mine today, thanks alot

I'm going to wait on some shots from someone here who buys one. From the looks of it it's going to bulk up the beast like a b****. I'm used to Carrying a Galaxy Tab in my pocket, this thing is already too big .

Of what should the buyer beware? Otterbox has a strong history of good cases. I've bought 3 phones from Mobile City Online over the years and never had a problem.

How can they already be offering it at such a low price?

Did not get mine. I emailed them and they said that the May 26 date is just an estimate and not firm at this point...pretty bumbed that this is taking so long.

I still have yet to figure out why people need an otterbox. Unless your going to be in an episode of deadliest catch. Sigh 70 bucks wasted.
I don't even use a case on my xoom. Nor my nexus. Pointless if you ask me.

I want one of these just because I've seen what happens to an iPad when dropped only a few feet.
I'm a bit clumsy. Lucky for me, the OG Droid is a tank.

I'm deploying in a bit...want to keep my ports clean

case looks awesome.. Love to have a built in kickstand. Should of came factory like the thunderbolt.

I pre-ordered the Otterbox case from CellularAccessory.com for $58 and used the code take5 to get free standard US Mail shipping (a week or two ago). It was the best deal I could find for the Xoom Otterbox. I wish it had the polycarbonate screen cover since I'll be using it in sandy conditions but it still looks like the best protection out right now.
The status of my order says it will ship tomorrow. Will see.

Case-mate tough case, not out yet?

On their eu site it shows the case and I like what I see. Looked around and it appears that its coming soon. I was wondering if anyone knew about availability? I have an inquiry in and will report back if it hasn't already been dug up and reported here.
edit... I should have put a link here, my bad. Here is a link to the goods. ---> http://www.case-mate.eu.com/samsung-galaxy-s-2-tough-case-black.html

I don't have any news but thanks for sharing that link. I've been looking to see if Case-Mate was preparing any cases yet for the SG2.

Have you had one previously? I'm running a siedio case right now that I really like. It is a hard rubbery feeling outside that gives some grip but it doesn't collect lint or get stuck in pockets. This is what I'm looking for.

barely there case is out..2 sellers on ebay.uk and amazon uk too..
but i can not find the other hard case

Yes I did. I liked it, nice looking, not too thick and had a nice solid feel to it when you grasped the phone. It slide in and out pretty easily and didn't pick up stuff from my pockets.

I'm going to try out the Barely There case for now... I've had those before too. Not nearly as protective but I'd rather try one of these out than some of the odd stuff we are seeing so far.

I ordered some gel cases from Deal Extreme that still haven't shown up yet - a little worried using my SGS II without a case (it's a bit slippery). I like the look of the Case-Mate barely there or Safe Skin - will pick one up in London week after next (I'm sure CPWH will have them...)

Case-mate has responded to my email this morning. They expect to have them available to the public in two weeks.

Hi,
I always use the case-mate tough case on a of my phones, andhave one on pre order from mobile den, cpwh will bedding then for around £25 and the barely there will be much cheaper but to me does not provide grip or good protection.

I purchased this http://www.case-mate.eu.com/samsung-galaxy-s-2-gelli-case-clear.html and the screen protector that shipped with it is totally the wrong size and has no hole for the home button. it is too short and too narrow almost a galaxy s screen protector with no hole for the home button. I checked 3 different carphone warehouse and they are all the same. I emailed case mate and was told they knew the screen protector didn't fit but just use it anyway.
Really disappointed in the company. No reason at all this should be sold like this. The case is very nice however but at £13 its not cheap if you have no screen protector
Dont know if this will be the same just to let you know

I dont use screen protectors, hate em. Nevertheless I don't like the sound of an outfit shipping a piece that to my mind would be useless and not what was represented. What is your feelings on the fit of the case itself in regards to the cut outs and so on? Overall quality? Value?

This is now available on amazon uk, I have one on the way so I will post up with my impressions after I have it in hand.

Case-mate now available on Clove's website.

Don't Buy - ZYDistro Silicone Case

Don't buy this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/190588484373?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
I just bought one and it doesn't fit. It's not even close to fitting -- the phone will slip right off of it. It's also a lint/dirt magnet.

does anyone explain for me，why that seller still sold more than 100 cases？And got 99% positive feedback？

you can't post negative feedback for at least a week so I'd guess alot of people haven't had it for long enough. there was at least another person in the comments that said the same as my experience.

I bought one from the same seller, the worst fit so far, looks like they made the mold from the measurements not the actual phone to profit from early listings, can't believe he sold over 123 cases in 9 days and nobody gave him a negative feedback, I will soon as I get my refund.

The d30 dual impact is one Bad ass case fits perfect and is full protect it's expensive but soooo worth it his my 2 cents .

[REVIEW] Ballistic SG Case (UPDATE)

UPDATE:
I have seen a lot of questions about people seeing this case with out the lip portion which is on the top right of the screen. I just found this case on ebay which is half the price and does not have the lip.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Xshie...648123?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2a176d08fb
Here is a White version I also found which looks nice.

Ballistic SG Case for T-Mobile
I just saw it on eBay and it looks like a great case for protection.
Here is the company's site with the standard S2. They haven't added our phones yet to their site.
http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s2-ballistic-shell-gel-sg-series-case
Just recieved it today. I like the way it looks but it has a couple of drawbacks.
Pros:
1) Pushing the volume or power button is the best I have seen yet for the T-Mobile GS2 cases. Very fluid just like there isnt a case and the buttons make the natural noise that they make just like not using a case.
2) Seems to be the best protection I have seen for the GS2. I think it will handle a drop very easily.
3) I dont have a screen protector but the way this is designed I dont see how this case would cause any issues like the D30 cases do due to a tight fit. Its somewhat loose and should not cause the corners of a screen protector to lift up.
4) Has a great feel to it and adds some weight to the phone.
5) Protects the back camera perfectly.
6) It does add some thickness to the phone but this is because the phone is extra protected. I would say it is about 1.5x to 1.75x as thick as the phone without a case on it.
Cons:
1) The first layer is rubber and due to this fact it has a few issues.
2) Collects lint easily from your pocket.
3) Can be difficult at times to put in and out of your pocket due to the rubber.
By far though this is the best case I have had for a phone. I own a couple of TPU cases for the T-Mobile GS2 and a D30. It makes the D30 look like junk even though the D30 is a great basic case.It has some drawbacks but the pros outweigh the cons. I definitively recommend this case to anyone that wants the ultimate protection for their phone and doesnt mind cleaning the lint off everyonce in a while. If you like my review please give me a thanks.

just saw one too. didnt kno that they started to make them yet. their a little bulky for my line of work. and since im a student im not really in the situations where is need THAT Much protection....but do a review if you get one.

I ordered one. As soon as it comes in I will post pics.

Highly recommended. Fits perfect. Buttons easy to push. 2 pieces, inside rubber and outside hard plastic. Hasn't bubbled up my zagg yet. All holes line up as they should. Looks super cool. A++++++.

I have to say yes... I'll take measurement tmrw but the corners are thicker than all of it. Its still not bad. Fits in my pocket n like how it feels in my hand ... I like the texture of back compared to the d3o.
To be fair, the rubber corners will pick up lint just like vibrant otter box. This thing is maximum protection...

Thanks, got one on order. This will be my 4th and hopefully final case for this phone, I am a fan of otterbox so I think I will like it. I started with the black bodyglove from tmobile, not a bad case but a pain in the ass to take of so I got one of the clear TPU cases from ebay and its a great case. And then the D30 came out so I exchanged the bodyglove for it, had to take it back because it fit like crap, the next one fit 95% better but is still uneven around the edges and for a $25.00 piece of rubber it should be perfect like the $7.00 one from ebay.

The first D30 that I got was from T-Mobile. That one fit perfectly, just didn't like the way how the button press felt. So then I also got a TPU case from eBay. Next thing T-Mobile gave out the cases so I picked it up, returned the original one I bought at T-Mobile store, but then the one I got from T-Mobile online, it fit 95% and was bubbling up my Realook. I was hoping for a Seidio case to come first but since I've heard good things about Ballistic case, I gave it a shot. Waiting for it to come in the mail now.

I ordered a black one before you posted this!
Seller shipped a few hours after I made the purchase, so I had tracking. It came in 3 days from NY to Ohio.
It may say refurbished, but mine looks brand new. It came in the OEM packaging and all.
Its a great buy for anyone that needs one. IMHO, Id rather pay $9 for a quality case that will last over a no-name brand for $4.
Volume buttons are easy to push with the case on, has a nice "clicky" feel. The power button is a little difficult to press as others have reported, but it's not as bad as some say. I got used to it

Same here, I've had one of the D30 hardback cases for about 3 months and it's cracking near the power and volume buttons.
