The price is too good to be true for this case so it's most likely fake like the others on ebay. Just a heads up because there are many people who thought they were going to get a real one.

Yup. Plus they dont even make those anymore, they got discontinued awhile back. Just the fakes are available now. Maybe few real one but doubt those are it cause of the price. Nonetheless the fake one I had was so close to real. Almost perfect.

Diztronic is a great value case but it is TPU (which I actually prefer). Otherwise, the ACase seems nice as well. Of course, UAG is on amazon as well, but I personally think they are ugly. :shrugs:

Basic clear TPU case. Nice slim design that offers decent protection

I had this case and gave it away. The buttons are difficult to press and the case turned blue from my jeans. Only worth $1 for phone protection

Imo buy dark colors cause eventually lighter colors will stain overtime. My wife has a hot pink ballistic LS series and it started turning purple with jean stain lol. Its easy to clean off tho, so I guess no biggie. But I can only imagine a white case with stains

**pics included** Black Cruzer Case on Amazon fits GSM perfect

I got the black glossy Cruzer case from Amazon and it fits snug and tight...better than my Incipio case I purchased from the Verizon store. The case is nice and durable. The power button and 3 prongs are open and the volume keys are closed with a nice rough texture. The volume keys are very easy to use since they are sealed. I recommend this case to GSM Galaxy Nexus owners and the price is not bad at all.
I gave it a 5 star review on Amazon.
Here is a link...
Check out the other designs Cruzer has... Android print case looks pretty cool too.

How is the fit and finish, for lack of a better term, of the case? How tightly does it fit around the face and how are the areas around the mold seam?
I'm currently using this Qubits case and while it is quite good, it is not perfect.

The fit and finish is great. It is not loose around the face or around the seams. Im telling you, this fits nice and tight all around the phone.
Sorry guys.... I'll get pics later today...give me about 2 hours.

I have this case and while it fits perfectly it takes away from the look of the phone. Also makes it bulky and just not the same. I have a smoked one if someone wants it. Will sell it for $5.

What color did you get?
Sale at Amazon on these
FYI - if you want more than one, you can get three for the price of two at Amazon - use promo code BUY2GONE. Several different colors, two different patterns.

I got black. I didn't care too much about the color though. I only use the case when I am in route from one location to another. When I'm at home or at the office I take the case off.

Speck Candyshell

Anybody else pick this case up?
I got the grey/black from ATT. There was no way this phone was leaving the store naked, so I chose it (free due to a plethora of bull****).
Anyway, this case is actually pretty awesome. VERY slim, yet sturdy. It fits better than I imagined, and I had pretty high hopes. Also, the buttons retain their solid "click" when you press them with ease.
I highly recommend it. ATT has them for the manufacturer's price of $35. I will post pictures if anybody wants.
I looked, but didn't find a similar thread. Please let me know if there is already one!

i had one of these on a one x and my god i didnt think i was ever gona get it out so i went with the casemate that is like the otter comm all black it looks very nice with the white
I was worried about it being tough to get off too, but it's surprising. It's like the hard plastic is flexible to a certain extent, just enough to get the case off.
I do want that case you are talking about. My wife has one for her S2.

I grabbed the same case, along with a Case-mate Pop. The Pop is going back. Love the Speck. Wish they had other colors in the store though. I chose the Speck bc it's a quality case and it slides in and out of my pocket easily.

Same here. I would have preferred black, this gray looks kind of purple to me. I like how well it fits, I don't get dust under the case finally!

Best buy didn't have anything good when I looked. Amazon has the best selection, but most of the cases I want are pre order only.
I'm content with this case though, it does what I want.

Are you keeping the phone in your pockets? (with the case) or are you using some type of holster?

Pocket, holsters aren't allowed in uniform or on the flight line.

That's why I like the rubber on the inside, goes into the pockets easily.

I picked up the grey from the AT&T store as well. I like the contrast with the white phone and the black rubber around the edge, but I agree that the "grey" has some purple in it. Still, I really like the case and I'll only bother to change the color if this one wears out. These have been my favorite cases for my last two phones. They seem durable and offer great protection of all edges.
I wonder if they are making Candyshell Card like the one for iPhone... https://www.speckproducts.com/iphone-case/iphone-4-case/smartflex-card-for-iphone-4s-4.html
I bet they will.
I'm still looking for the candy shell in other colors. I know they make them, but I can't find any for sale.
I wish they would do a black hard part with white rubber. That would look great on my white phone

Man these things are expensive to ship... over $50 for just a case to ship all the way up here to the "great north" - canada. Anyone know if they sell these at any retail stores around here?
Also how does the Pebble/beyou or the green one look with the white one? Wish speck had more color combination... they all seem a bit dull aside from the raspberry pink one.

Work Case

Hi
Im working within Construction and my brand new s3 is screaming for protection.
I have been lookin around for some "Work" cases. I have found otterbox defender, but its just pre order and i need a good case right now.
Is there something like otterbox defender for about the same price or lower that is better?
Are There any BIG pouches like krussel has that fits the s3 AND a normal case (NOT work case) ?
Regards
Hooterz
You can purchase the Defender from Amazon, now. The commuter is also a good option.
Maybe this too:

If you're from the US do check out www.pure-gear.com too. Some of their cases look like they can survive through a Nuclear Apocalypse.

It comes with a user replacable screen protector i didnt like it so much so i just have my ivisor matte screen protector on now. If you go to ebay i think there like $35 shipped. Theres 4 more other colors to choose from.

Check out the Trident Kraken. That thing looks serious. I'm a firefighter and it's even a little to much for me. I'm very careful with my phones and I can't stand adding bulk to such a nice looking phone.

The ballistic sg maxx is a nice case and the plastic screen cover fits much tighter to the screen than the otterbox. Still it will let dust in though and it makes the screen look like crap. I took mine off snd have an hd screen protector on it.
Also ordered a pure gear 260 case so well see how that one is.

I'm in the UK myself but would be interested in the Pure Gear cases. I sent them an e-mail to see if they have any resellers or distributors in the UK or anywhere else in Europe but as yet no reply.
check ebay for pure gear there is one of the 360s on there now, i think i am gonna pick one up
And it's only 30 on eBay too and ships outside us

DBA Ultra Case.
Not the meatiest case, but still protects and keeps its slim factor. Cool design. Adds that solidness the phone needed. You will not regret it.

I went on amazon and go the official samsung ultra slim cases.Comes in pack of two. they are awesome. Though they dont provide alot of drop protection they do provide enough. and they keep the phone its same form factor. i like the thinness of the phone and wanted to keep that. this case does that. for only 11 bucks for two.

"good" and "cheap" dont often work well together. it's either a cheap case that might protect your phone when you drop it or its a good case that you spent $20+ on. if you're going for looks and dont want to spend a lot, there's thousands of cases. otterbox cases are too bulky for me. i always use case mate's "tough case" on my galaxy phones. good luck

Cheap and gets the job done. Not too bulky also it depends where you buy the case from...Amazon is cheapest and fastest to avoid the stores markup.
An otterbox commuter is about $20 on Amazon and works well for me.
A clear backed bumper hybrid case is what I use when I want smaller and they are cheap and work well for protection for me but you need a well raised front face bumper to protect the screen though
try ebay or amazon
i prefer ebay, if you want cheaper cases
and in my opinion, they are pretty good, especially the gel ones
