Nice review, but I think you bashed the grippiness a bit much. My grey/grey Incipio is grippier than both my Cruzerlite TPU and my rubberized Rock Quicksand polycarb.
What were you comparing to?
I like that color. Where did you get it?

That's a Tmobile exclusive color. You can find it in most retail stores.
lol Incipio has made a lot of money off of this case. so many discussions about it just in the US S3 section.
Nice review think I'm going to try one of these cases.

I might try and pick up one of these as well. I like the Tmobile blue better than the Verizon blue that I have seen, but I get a 25% discount on Verizon accessories so I might just go with the Verizon one.

someone already has. they're called Case-Mate. i had the pleasure of holding their Tough Case in store at an authorized att retailer. i had one on my SGS2 international but was worried about it being thicker for the SGS3. well, glad i saw one in person because i would've missed out. hands down better than the Incipio with not only the feel of the case in hand but it's also a tad thinner than the Incipio. as soon as i got back to my computer i ordered one. can't wait to get it.

Thanks for the Case-Mate Tough recommendation, but I just checked out some reviews, and, IMO, it's got more downside than upside when compared to the Incipio:
Casemate Tough VS Incipio Silicrylic
Pros:
- Separate cutouts for flash/camera/speaker VS single cutout provides better protection
Cons:
- It's visibly bulkier-looking
- The casemate only comes in two colors: black/black and pink/black
- Much harder to put on and remove. Check out the video review below
- More expensive
- No screen protector included (if you care about that)
- The grippy silicone on the sides is completely covered by the outer shell (wtf?)

is this coming from this review or something?
Cons:
- It's visibly bulkier-looking - i can tell you the Incipio is actually a little thicker...
- The casemate only comes in two colors: black/black and pink/black - i just wanted a black personally...
- Much harder to put on and remove. Check out the video review below - again, i've had one on my SGS2. it's not hard but i could see some having trouble here. legit con i suppose
- More expensive - by about $4 if a coupon is used ($24 vs $28)
- No screen protector included (if you care about that) - already have one
- The grippy silicone on the sides is completely covered by the outer shell (wtf?) - the material that the Case Mate shell is made out of is actually a better grip than the little bit of rubber that you may touch on the Incipio.
coming from someone who has personally held both, the Tough Case is a better buy, if only for the reason that it's a little thinner. that Incipio is so bulky imo. when my gf saw it, that was the first thing she said.
No way the ibcipio is thicker than the case mate IMHO (or at least it doesn't feel like it) . I held both I used both and the incipio is thinner.. Which doesn't mean it's better. The tough is a great case but they are aimed to different markets

No not at all. The cutout nests the phone nicely.

Yes, except there a little different. the designs are very similar though.
Armor Case is made by chinese manufacturers but they are available in alot more colors than what Otterbox offers.
the holster and design of the case are nearly identical to the Defender case

I got a Body Glove off Amazon for $12. Very happy with it. Good compromise between bulk and protection. That, and a pack of 5 screen protectors for $6-7.
I used to have a trident case on my EVO smaller than otterbox and still very protective and also had pet screen, it was perfect, I read on another thread, their website just started making them for the thunderbolt. That's what I'm gonna order for my next case.

Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
So like many others who have been waiting for their GS3 to be delivered to their front door steps here in the USA, I've been buying cases so I'd be ready to go from the start. My plan is buy a variety of cheap cases and bumpers to see how they feel in my wee bitty hands. So here is my review of a case worth reviewing. I haven't seen anyone mention this case so I apologize if I'm duplicating something that's already been said.
I picked up this case on Amazon for a little over $12 after shipping costs. It appeared to be marked down from $30 without shipping so I figured It was a steal. So far, I was right. It's size is very slim for a duel layer case. While it does make the phone bigger, it's not too big for my girl hands. It actually makes the phone feel a little better and comfortable in the hand.
The texture of both layers have a nice grip and feel. The matte black hard shell has a soft feel that blends well with the feel of the silicone core.
So far the hardshell has been smudge resistant and I have a good feeling scratch resistant but only time and use will tell on that part. The silicone core appear to be lint resistant, if that's even possible, compared to my Seidio Active case on my Rezound (great case by the way) that collected light to moderate pocket lint.
The case also provides a nice lip around the screen to protect it. The best part of the lip is that it doesn't get in the way of using the phone. It occupies just the right amount of real estate.
Buttons work like the real buttons. No issues with them working properly or having to apply extra pressure.
Summary: I love this case. It's solid, feels great, and was purchased at a great price.

I want to know other users opinion about this case compared to the following cases:
1. Otterbox commuter
2. Incipio Silicrylic
3. Casemate Tough case
Ha! The thread lives! I can't believe more people aren't using this case or at least interested in the case. It's great and almost tripled in price since I first got it. Still cheap enough to equal a valuable purchase.
Currently not being productive on my S3.
I checked this on Amazon. All the ratings are either 4 star or 5 star. And there are 44 of them.
Does this means it is the best case for S3 or are they asking the buyers to give good ratings(I have heard some companies do so) ?

Few questions?
How is the back of the hard shell? is it very smooth so that it may slip away from your hand or table?
Also do you know whether it is of the same size and weight of Case mate Tough case?
I had one for my 3d, very nice case. The only reason I got rid of it was the need for a belt holster, but other than that it protected the phone very well and the rubber material did not stretch out or get flimsy.

It's smooth but I wouldn't say slippery. I've been very comfortable holding it without fear of dropping it.
I'm not familiar with the Casemate Tough but I do like it better than my Casemate Pop. The Pop! Case is very slick other than the grips on the side and it feels wider then the Acase.

Do you use a screen protector with your case? A lot of screen protectors that go all the way to the edge of the screen are having problems with a lot of cases. I am using a Zagg HD, and I wanted to know if this case would cause it to bubble up.
Just wanted to add my two cents. Got the case very fast from Amazon. Was worried it wouldn't come but then it was delivered even before my shipping confirmation.
Anyways on to the case. Very good feel too it, not as bulky as i was expecting but still feels secure. Been using it regularly since i got it. Fits well in the pocket and doesn't attract too much lint so far. For the price, highly recommend it

Hey I have the case and yeah you would have to use a screen protector that doesnt go to the edges I had a regular screen protector and the bottom would bubble up because of the case.
I bought this case when it was $6.05 on Amazon and I would pay the current price for it because it is worth it. This is a really good case. I just wish they had made it a holster case.
got my black one this morning and I have to say that it feels great in the hand and fits perfectly.
I previously had the trident aegis and Neo hybrid but hated both of them. this is so much better and half the price. I have the seidio active too which is great to watch things using the kickstand but as an everyday case this blitzes it!
thanks for answering my questions about this in another thread.

This is for guys that are careful with their phones. as it delivers awesome corner and back protectors but the screen and top bottom middle part are a exposed. The nano gets rid of all potential scratches tho. And best part no bubbles
Remember one more time this is NOT for someone that want full body protection, but its awesome for those who want to retain sleekness
Enjoy!!

I personally believe that all ultra slim cases are pretty alike. They have some differences here and there but seem to be taken from the same mold. The difference comes from the added product (free screen protector, free shipping, some gift, etc). And the durability. This case is different than the ringke in many ways but alike to it in many as well.

Just got mine. It is beautiful. I bought a cheap tpu carbon fiber case off ebay that had jagged edges, horrible cutouts and just felt not right.. This thing is much thinner and cutouts are perfect. Its so thin it actually fits into the infuse 4g car dock (though barely).
only con is the top and bottom of phone are open to scratches. I just saw that the modello case was released and it covers the phone fully. Might consider trading for it. any thoughts on the modello?
Hey guys, my S3 should be here by the end of the week, woooooooooo. But I need some help deciding on a case and was wondering if people who have tried different cases or used just one and can reccomend it could chime in. Basically I want something that will protect the phone, specifically something with a lip so when screen down the screen isn't touching the surface it's on, and basic protection of the phone, I don't drop my phone often, never dropped it on concrete, I'm not very clumsy but I still want something that'll protect my very very expensive phone. The Otterbox defended and similar cases seem like overkill for me, but the clear plastic 2mm case seem like not enough protection, so I was wondering if there was a nice middle ground that wasn't too thick and bulky but would definitely protect the phone. I've got my eye on this one http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s-3-ballistic-sg-maxx-series-case, any other suggestions?
Keep in mind I'm coming from a Desire Z with a thickness of 14.2 mm, the S3 feels like a piece of paper in my hand coming from that, so a little bulk doesn't bother me.

That's a nice deal for the Kraken, I like the Aegis as well, they look really nice.
I know you said the otter box is excessive but they actually have two different styles at sprint. i have the slim otter its not bulky but protects everything. I like alot due to the fact that it protects the charging port as well as the ear phone Jack. I had the s2 before and my charging port always got stuff in it like lent from my pocket or what not. The case is lined with a silicone case inside a hard shell which will stop dirt from getting inside and scratching the device as well as making it more drop resistant. It is deffinatly worth having for 30 dollars.
The otter box i have is actually smaller than the case you have posted and comes with one screen protector as well.

Yes! This!!! I have the exact same case its amazing! Like nothing can destroy this phone with this case!
I used a SGP Neo Hybrid since more than one year but a few month ago the polycarbonat frame is broken so I buy this one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Book-Wallet...-Samsung-Galaxy-S3-III-GT-i9300-/271210987593
And I'm total happy with this Case since 2 month!
After trying about 10 cases of varying materials , shapes and sizes I chose the fake Neo Hybrid case since the origional doesn't seem to be available anymore. Build quality is quite good for under 10 bucks and if it breaks itll be cheap to buy another.
UAG is the best!! Very good quality and build. Using it with a 0,4 mm glass screen protector. Beats the plastic ones by a 1000 miles.
+1 on the bodyglove shocksuit!! The shizz.
Spigen neo hybrid now, had an Otterbox commuter for the last year. Like them both but I prefer the Spigen
Got to agree body glove is the best. Good price and doesn't make the phone to big and bulky.

UAG black - very good protection with just enough bulk/weight combo. Also, the case fits perfectly on the phone, very high quality production. With awesome design to boot. The screen cover it brings is also the best one i've ever seen, no cheapo 3 for 1€'s from ebay even compare.
Survived plenty of abuse already, phone remains mint.

Oh my god yes. the UAG case is really nice. The one thing I do dislike is that the lettering on the back came off within the first week of having it. Still recommend for durability. Btw those who want the case, Slate is a lot closer to the natural GS3 blue than you think!

most of the fake UAG case sell cheap and have letters failling off or just painted on it not mentioning the quality is not the same at all.
im not saying you brought fake one but just sharing some experiences.
also my fav case is indeed a UAG one (Scout/black) i got it from Ebay for 24$ port inclusive from a Belgian seller, i did some investigation because even if its only 10 bucks less than the official store its still suspicious, i did sent some detailed pics of the case and box info/bar code and according to the customer service : it's a original one, nonetheless i spared 10$ on it but i didnt got custom taxes.

Wow, I didn't know they sold many knockoffs. Mine was direct from Amazon through UAG. I think I just have oily skin which made it easier to reduce the sticky solution for the lettering. Thanks for letting me know of that! I might get another just to have more color selection
Lifeproof Fre.
Otterbox Armour is a close second, but the lifeproof is more practical for everyday use, as it's more pocketable and wireless charging works through it.

exactly what make a UAG better than a Otterbox, Otter are nice but too bulky.
funny experience: i had 2 S3 dropped from my balcony (around 3meter)1 from a friend with a Otterbox defender and mine with the UAG without screen protector both hit the concrete on the lower edge (where the soft bumper is) result : mine nothing the other had a little (very small) crack on the bottom of the screen xD
sorry for the blurry quality xD

That life proof looks really solid but still just a bit too bulky for me. I might get something a bit thicker than my UAG, but first I need a proper full screen protector. I've gone through like 5 because they are dammed hard to apply.
