so the diztronic cases are amazing. they are really great and fit perfect and are cheap ($10) ETC. but i found that they yellow incredibly fast. first it was the sides then my entire phone....
its everyday use. have it in my jean pocket and take it out. thats it! its crazy. it reminds me of the jordan shoes with the clear soles back in the day where the soles yellow naturally bc the material comes in contact with oxygen, causing yellowing.

Nice! How does it feel in hand?

feels nice and it has a lot more grip to it.
Does it collect a lot of dust?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Why would it collect dust ? never herd of any cases that collect.
The only problem with these type cases is the clear ones tend to turn yellow in a few months, the colored ones don't
now they have 7 cases, for only 17.99 great deal

Thank you Siberslug!
Just bought myself a case after seeing your thread. Thanks for posting!
My Vibrant gets here tomorrow, I'm even more excited now!
Welcome! The edges are more sturdy than the t-mobile case is, but the center is still flimsy.
It is also not nearly as sticky as the t-mobile case, which is a GOOD thing to me. It still has a grip to it, but it isn't so difficult to stick in my pocket (or pull back out)
I just received mine today...
This is the one I bought:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Black-Gel-Case-...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item5d2a05dbdb
I was worried that it would be a loose fit but it fits very snugly on to the phone. You have to try very hard to pry it off, which is good!
It's more plastic like than it is a gel like material but it feels very nice in your hands. The feel of it will get smoother after a few days of use once all the oils from my skin get onto it.
I ordered it on 7/19 and received it today on 7/26 and paid $2.98 for everything!
Just buy it in TMO + the screen protector. Pfft. I spent 600 on the phone. another 40 bucks for a case + screen protector. is nothng.
Hi everybody, I just recently got an atrix and was wondering if anybody had any ideas of keeping the exterior scratch proof. I work in a very dirty dusty environment. I have an otterbox defender but with past experience dirt can get into the defenders still and scratch the phone, I was thinking of skinning it with something then placing it in the defender. I actually had the idea of using scotch tape but I didn't know I'd anyone had any better ideas. Thanks!
Justin
wtf scotch tape??
why not try Zagg Invisible Shield?
Isn't that a pain to apply? I was thinking of a peel and stick option, it doesn't really have to be pretty, just needs to protect
Try the Zagg full body protection, it's really good.
EDIT: It's like a thin skin that is of some of the highest quality.
ZAGG is good. it isn't that much of a pain to apply. just make sure you clean your device before applying it. you don't want any dust or anything under the skin!
Thanks for the input guys! I'll try the zagg
here's a GREAT option that is just peel and stick for your preference:
http://www.martinfields.com/US/MFOP-MotoAtrix4G
Excellent! That's exactly what I was looking for....thanks!!!
you can try di-noc it works very well and durable. i have it on my phone for 6 months now and theres no peeling.

You beat me to it! haha. I might also try a regular adhesive vinyl. You can get it in clear or coloured plus its cheap. Sometimes a couple bucks for a yard.
di-noc is nice but pretty expensive. cost me close to $20 for a square foot to canada.
what's di-noc?

a vinyl "sticker" that resembles carbon fiber.
It is made by 3M and gives you that carbon fiber look without it actually being carbon fiber. Typically used by ricers on their decade old honda civics.

I have a custom skin on the back of my phone and am looking for a case that has a completely clear back but perhaps tpu sides or bumper to have some grip. Anyone have ideas? I can't find any

Even yesterday i did a massive search on ebay for S3 cases. Went over 50 pages with 200 hits each. I can't tell you specifically where but i can tell you there're definitly cases like the ones you want there. Seen plenty of clear ones hard and soft sillicone, maybe there's one you'd like.
Hmm...I was hoping for a clear solid back to protect it as well. Most of them have a frosted back ;___;
i hate to have a thicker device, but the bumper has already protected my device 3 times from getting serously damaged.

Look at Tech21, they have a bumper/clear back that sounds like what you are looking for.
for a quickie five below stores have S3 cases including a tpu case with a rigid mostly transparent back which would "show off" custom backs quite nicely. REALLY good fit and quality for $5 review coming soon.

If your looking for a good quality bumper, I'll sell you my Draco bumper for $40+Shipping or you can offer. I have the Flare Red with the original box and all the original parts. I used it for less than a week. No scratches or dents. In perfect condition.

I'll pass on the alumnium since I hear aluminum reduces radio strength. Thanks though!
I really wanted the Black, but everywhere that I've called say that they only have the silver.
Anyways, what case will you be rocking?
I chose the Seidio Surface case for light use and the Seidio Active w/ kickstand for heavier duty.
this is the first phone I'll primarily be using naked, so I got this as a quick case to put on and off depending on the situation, along with a mime ghost glass tempered glass screen protector

I'd like something thin and clear to show off it's style but I'm bad about dropping my phone. Ideally I'd like something like the old invisishield that's just a layer over the screen and back but also covers all the edges. Any suggestions?
Incipio Dual Pro Shine Silver / Black
http://www.myphonecase.com/products...ver-black?utm_source=googlepla&utm_medium=cpc
Really like it so far. Fits the phone well. The only quarrel I have is that the screen on/off button is hard to hit right, but muscle memory will make it easier in the future.
Urban Armor for me!
Otter Box Commuter series case has never failed me before.
Speck GemShell
I had to cut slits on the sides of the volume buttons though to make it easier to press. Poor design.
http://www.amazon.com/Speck-Product...HL4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377215448&sr=8-1&
Diztronic TPU
I ordered the goospery slim, avoid it. Not only is the fit garbage but they put a sticker inside the case that has been impossible to remove in one piece.
I got the Verizon brand..."high gloss silicone" cover...
I have this case: amazon.com/Poetic-Palette-Premium
Its very minimalistic and feels very soft. Only $8 but I would have paid double.

I got the Tri-colored double dip official HTC case A lot of people complained about it scratching the phone but mine is unscatched. I just got my phone a few hours ago.
Definitely an Otterbox, most likely the Commuter.
i just like simple ones haha
HTCs own double dip flip.
Just bought one of these for £2.99, it arrived in 2 days, and I got to say, it is beautiful. Feels so nice to use on my OPO. The picture really doesn't do it justice. I actually prefer it to the original sandstone touch.

I have bought from them for all my phones that they do the cases for. It feels almost like silk.

Stumbled upon a review on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q43HYVeiiPo
and on amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MPIC9KO/ref=cm_sw_su_dp
Be careful with the generic back cover cases..
I ordered 2 cases similar to these, a red one and white one. The white one fits poorly so i sent it back. The red one fits nicely but after a week i took my phone out of the case and saw that it left red paint on the back of my sandstone black cover..GRRRR. So be warned about these cheap generic cases. I put tape on the inside of the case to prevent any more paint coming off onto my phone. This is my first 5.5" phone and i fumble it alot but only dropped it twice but these case will not prevent your phone from being chipped, as expected since it's not a full cover. I'm waiting for my new case which is a full shock protection case.
Doesn't look any different then the xtremeguard case that I bought for way cheaper.
$3.99 plus $1.49 carbon fiber back vinyl = $5.48 free shipping
