the GS3 is 8.6mm thin and this case is 19mm thick so this is like adding 11mm to the S3 since the phone goes inside the case.

Wow that's pretty hefty.
Is a GS3 with an extended battery thinner than 19mm? Might be a better route.

yes it is thinner with an extended battery... it is just over 16mm with the extended battery AND honeycomb case from hyperion.. and it is 4200mah.
$60 on Amazon, description says only for att and tmobile but it's the same part number as the one from the website.

Found this one, thinking about grabbing it. Red, blue, or black (grey)?

Wow that looks good! I just wish it wasn't so expensive.
These cases were around for two months already. Good idea, but the back is still exposed. I need the entire phone covering TPU case.

I know there are many many universal ones out there but was wondering in paticular if anyone has ordered a specific one that works very well with the gnexus. I would still love to have access to the volume buttons to skip tracks. Please give me any input/feedback on any if you'v ordered em in the past and point me the right direction! i hate having it in my shorts while i jog.

Arkon has an armband for smartphones up to 4.6", meaning the GNex. Here's some pics I took.
The model number is XXL-ARMBAND:

Do you think it would fit if you lefta tpu case on there?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Probably, if it's not super thick.
I'm curious if it will fit with otterbox case on.
Well, the neoprene is stretchy enough that it's possible, but I can't say for sure. It'll be a tight fit if it did.
I just want to show you guys few pics with my new hardcase Quicksnad from Rock. I bought this on Ebay for 10 pounds. It's high quality, scratch resistant, giving you a very good grip, protecting your lens and back of SGS3. I did check few of hard cases, but this one is defo the best for me.

Thanks, I was convinced that the sgs3 didn't need a case but after seeing this, it doesn't look half bad. I might just get one.
I bought one too, and I really like the feel. However it does not fit my phone, one corner appears to be too short to go over the phone at that point and slips out. Poor QC
I've bought it too. Hope it will fit in a yomix pouch: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0076I5JS2
Nope, it doesn't fit in the Yomix. But the ROCK Quicksand fits perfekt on my S3 so I don't a Yomix.
Might have to look into this one not terrible looking

Not bad at all, doesn't add too much bulk either.
Looks pretty cool, i like the texture on it

Just thought I would let you guys hear about this new Otterbox armor series which claims to be the toughest case yet.-waterproof
-dustproof
-dropproof
-crushproof (up to two tons)
Runs for $100, looks like Otterbox is attempting to give lifeproof a little competition. What do you guys think?

Won't be out for at least another month, they're starting with the iPhone case first. I'm not happy with the price, it's $20 more then either the seidio or lifeproof.

Hey,
Anyone ever tried this out?
http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/shop/accessory/ao_details.jsp?accSKU=67400182&accCatId=acc9002cat
They don't sell them at the Verizon store. They're at the Sprint store. It uses the OEM battery that comes with the phone. It piggybacks on an extra 1620mah battery.
I tried it and still have it it works great and u get the battery door, rubber case, and the plastic phone clip, its sweet but it does make ur phone pretty fat thou take that into consideration.
Ur battery will last a day and a half wit heavy use it did for me. Like 34 to 40 hours with like 6 hours of screen on time.

How large does it end up being? I recently stopped using a QCell battery because I didn't like the way the battery cover messed with flash pictures. From the picture on the Sprint website, it looks like the cover and case do not interfere with the flash like the QCell does.
The case does not interfere with any of it because it has all the rite cut outs, and its not that fat. I actually have a 4200 mah battery that I ordered from batteries plus. And they are both the same thickness. Hope this helped out.
