last thing i heard is that metal/aluminum cases affect wifi signal and the NFC feature. Might be wrong tho

Whoa, that looks very nice. Where can I get one of these? O.O

At least post a link or something.

those cases are not even on the market yet.. only in china or something like that

the metal enclosure like that would most likely affect cell and wifi signal. not sure about NFC though.

that case is very nice! where i can buy it?

Please read.
Seriously why hasn't a company designed a case similar to this, most of the ones in the picture thread look chunky and bumpy and have horrible edges. The UAG doesn't look too bad in black though.

Great case I would buy this only if there was a link to the manufacturer.

I'd like a link as well. It looks AWESOME. I wonder if it comes in black?

I 100% agree with this statement

This actually looks like one of those S3 design pitches. Personally don't like this, but if this is for real, this changes your back cover as well, yes?

Still, looks better than some of the blocky brick designs I've seen in the case thread. Aluminium is a no go though

Wow, any idea where to get one from???????///?/??/??/

I saw them in HK once when I was traveling there last time and I browsed around on the net and seen them again!!
Unfortunately I didn't bookmark the website, I just saved the pictures!
This case is released a while ago so I believe they should be available in America already~~

This is beautiful. Those hating on it obviously aren't secure enough to rock a case that looks like an iPhone. Regardless of your view on Apple, they engineer beautiful devices that can't be ignored.
I'd rock this any day -- regardless of price.

Looks the part alright but this will undoubtedly affect WiFi, etc as other people have mentioned.
Get yourself an urban armor case the best there is

I don't think that a case should just only be about protection like the urban armor case I think because would get this case because it has a great design and I would still get it even if it affects signal.
Actual test all aspects of communications
GPS, WIFI, Bluetooth, 3G are not affected
NFC will affect more than five meters above

I've had the chance to review 2 x 3D printed Nylon cases for the Samsung Galaxy S3. Definitely one worth checking out.

These are definitely unique 3D-printed cases, but they all have the same flaw: dirt & grime will easily work its way under the holes in the layered patterns.
I *would* consider one of these nice designs, but only after they incorporate a silicone or TPU inner core like my Incipio Silicrylic hybrid case.

They look amazing! thanks for sharing!
I already have a dull-looking case already (too bad!) and I am not in the mood to spend money today!
nice
i like the camera and joker, that look very nice i want for my S3, i have one fo leather i buy it in fortte.com but is very elegant and this are more for fun and look great.
That's why, do a deep survey before buying any cases. If not you will end up with wasting too much of money,just bsc of buy cases. I only owned 3 cases now..^^
i saw this two kinds of case before
Football/Soccer Team Protective ABS Case
Wooden Pattern Protective PC Back Case

Thanks for sharing. Do these protect the screen if you lay the phone glass down?
loving the Tardis case
I love Etsy. Still debating if I want the Doctor Who hand made leather journal case for my N7 or not.. Who am I kidding? I WANT... but $80s a bit steep. XD

Pretty nice looking cases. Curious to see what they are going to come out with.
I had one of their cases back when I had an iPhone 4 and loved the case. They are a bit pricey but made with real carbon fiber and high end feel to them.
A few days ago they released a full image on their facebook page, I'm pumped for it
That's sessy!

These are very stylish cases but as mentioned $100+ dollars for a case is absurd.
Deff got my attetion.. That is nice... Hmm..
Carbon fiber is not cheap. I race rc cars and they like to get a good amount extra for parts done in carbon.. 100$ is steep maybe in the 50-70$ range would be easier to swallow
Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk 2
Get what you pay for. That case is sick and I think I want it!
I'd buy it.
$50 ill buy it right away. A penny more and i aint buying.
Very nice, but too expensive for my taste. The carbon fiber just appears to be an insert, so it doesn't add much to the case structurally, just aesthetics. It is a beautiful case though!
There probably will be a cheap "replica" coming out of china soon after the original is released. Just like it happened with the iPhone version.
I'm really liking this case but looking at the iPhone versions pricing I don't think I'll ever own it
Way too expensive IMO!
Wow. Gorgeous.
I bought Otterbox.
Week later Entended battery (makes Otter case worthless)
Now, I think I would get this.
I'm so backwards.

As much as I'm telling myself I'd never buy a case that expensive... I keep finding myself looking at that website....

The iPhone version of the case is up to $170 on that website, so it is likely to be similar for the S3.
But the normal cases with carbon start at 20$. And the prices you mention are nickel plated etc. I dont see nickel in the renders Sorry please be relevant

Here are some pictures of how the case fits around the phone. (Note that the front face is not really covered and you can actually see the bezel) -- @FiveOhFox
Give it a shot and let us know, prob won't fit correctly or fall apart after a good drop.
Is there a fake Eclipse? I'd be up for trying that for the right price.

will wait btw, where did you buy?
haven tried this particular case before, but i've personally bought a couple of other cases from ali express. The quality varies quite a bit. Some are better, some dont really fit. The aluminium bumper i bought for myself fit like a glove, and was of pretty good quality, while a different one that i had purchased for my girlfriend didn't really fit well. Have to look at feedback and orders before ordering from there.

Well they dont look that much classy ones and I would say they are outdated ones...people dont show much interest in them....but its my personal review...may b it differ from person to person...but i dont want this wooden one for my N5
I'm excited about this, but the wood lining seems pretty permanent because it sticks to the phone rather than snaps on. I could be wrong about this but the youtube videos look like this needs to be applied.
not something that id use but looks like and awesome product. would be cool to see what they come up with
WOW looks really good, i'd be interested in the Nexus 5 case.

I definitely enjoy wooden cases, and can't get enough of them. The dbrand skin does look very tempting.
http://dbrand.com/submodels/nexus-5/#skin-118
that's not correct, I just spoke with Grove.
Thanks for your interest in Grove!
Because we are a small company with limited production capabilities, we are unable to pursue other markets, like the Nexus, at this time. We want to keep the emphasis on crafting everything by hand to produce quality cases with superb design, this means that we have to narrow our range of product offerings. Unfortunately, this means it's unlikely that we’ll be producing cases for phones or devices beyond Apple products. Sorry to disappoint you. However, if this changes we'll update our website and facebook page for new products, and we'll also announce it through our newsletter.
I hope this clarifies.
Cheers,
Sylvia
