I'm not affiliated to this kick starter project but I stumbled upon it on YouTube today.

Looks like a good idea modelled on the GoPro camera system. Rugged case with various mounting options and from looking on the website they are planning lens modules to attach to the case later.
its waterproof up to 6'6" deep as well. Looks like a nice case.
Looks pretty cool. Unfortunately I will probably have a new phone by the time its actually released and shipped.
It's dimensions look a lot more "everyday use" friendly. I have the Obex and I'm happy with it, but I would like less bulk.

Honestly I'd rather spend my money in a company proven in the cell phone case market.
Sent from a planet far far away.
Looks pretty awesome but I honestly doubt they'll reach $105000 pledged. At $60 a case that's 1750 people agreeing to buy a case from an unestablished brand. If it was already out, it would be a good buy.

Hey guys,
I usually post on the Int. Galaxy S II and Nexus S forums but my roommate recently picked up the Epic Touch 4G so I'm going to start with some coverage on cases for the device. The folks over at Case-Mate sent me out their Tough case for review, and I will be bringing more reviews of their cases in the coming weeks.
The Tough case is a dual layered case that offers good protection and style, although is it a little thick. You can find the full video below:
I would love to see a review of the barely there brushed aluminum case that casemate is making for the phone.

I will be getting one then!
I have the case mate tough case, its very nice, not incredibly easy to get on and off, but nice. I came from the otterbox commuter on my evo, but am very pleased with the protection the tough case offers. Best out there I think

I agree! Taking it off is easy for me, however putting it back on can sometimes be a pain.
For those who may want to purchase one, I've found a deal on it - only 25$ at Accessorygeeks:
http://www.accessorygeeks.com/case-...AMSUNG&utm_campaign=CASE&utm_content=CM017002
Don't bother. I placed an order a couple days ago and it was taking my item forever to ship. I called them and they told me the item was on backorder and they won't be receiving stock till 11/30. They didn't even bother to notify me that they were out of stock so i won't be doing business with them anymore.
Really? That kind of blows...I was hoping they'd be a good company.

I can confirm the item is backordered, they are now saying 11/22, so I am cancelling my order.
I can confirm that too..a viewer told me the same thing.
On the other hand, I've got some more reviews coming so stay tuned for that
Ordered mine today.. had a Tough on my HTC Inspire and loved it.
Amazon has it for 28$ right now

I have posted some comparison shots in this review thread.
To be honest though, I didn't like the Brushed Aluminium all that much.. ended up giving it to a co-worker and ordering another TPU Matte Back Black.
Got my tough case today for Christmas. Must say that I love it. The tpu I had wasn't bad but the added protection and grip of this case is much better! Comparable to an otterbox commuter series. Not super bulky like the defender series.

I have this case it's excellent. Fit is very good and it's very light. The sides have a little texture which makes it easier to grip and the button covers provide just enough resistance that I no longer have pushes happening when it's in my pocket. I was skeptical when I ordered it but I really can't think of anything I'd change about it - it's a fantastic case at a ridiculously good price.

I got mine about a week ago. Paid $1.99. Absolutely the best case for that price! Nice and snug with great texture on the sides for grip. Highly recommend!

Got a link for this on Amazon? I could only find this case for $10 on Amazon.com
Its the case Im rockin right now and it feels nice. Obviously it doesn't make a huge difference, maybe its in my mind, but i even removed the battery cover. Just my phone and the case. Works nicely on heat too

Wonder how this one stacks up against the $10 one from Diztronic? I have that model and it's also a pretty nice case. Think I'll go ahead and jump on one as well. But I'm still looking for something in the Aegis/Commuter range for protection. Anyone seen either of these two floating around? For some reason, I'm just not feeling the Case Mate offering. Maybe I should re-think that!
Is it that same one as this one: http://www.amazon.com/S-Line-Shell-Samsung-Galaxy-Sprint/dp/B005U30660/ ?

Looks identical - I expect they all come from the same factory in any case. But why get it from amazon for $7.50 when you can get it on ebay for $2?
Just ordered my Epic Touch from Amazon yesterday (upgrading from an Evo 4G).. figured at this price, it'll at least be good enough to use until I find one that I like better... if I dont like this one
Whoo got the the case today and it feels amazing on the hands.
I sometimes think the phone is to thin and I can't grab it so well. I have used it for an hour now and I could already feel myself enjoying using my phone alot better.
The phone has some grooves on the sides that feels pretty snug and some what rugged.. Maybe it's so it doesn't slip out of your pocket. Which will benefit me since I use the phone for music and the gym alot.
Now I can lay my phone down on the counter with worrying about scratching the screen or the camera
Overall looks
4.5/5
Feel
5/5
I bought it off the link the op posted and they shipped it out fast.. (united states) I received it in 3days

Don't think that I have seen anybody post about vaja cases for the Galaxy S3. Be warned, these are priced at a premium, but IMHO, are worth the $. Always have had perfect fit, and the leather is as good as it gets. Plus you get to pick and choose your colors.
The have a basic back shell, a flip case and a pouch right now...I would suspect that we'll see more soon.

If you want to prove they are worth it, show us some pics of them on your phone!
So I'm browsing through the electronics section at Wal-Mart looking for a wireless mouse and I happen to stumble upon a new case for our phone. At first I'm thinking, "Oh, so now we have an Otterbox Defender!" Then I look at the box and it's a Body Glove!
I looked online for this case, but cannot even find it on the Body Glove website. I took a few pictures of it. It looks pretty good. It's a little bulky, but not too much. Very sturdy. The case is three parts - two for the inner hard plastic and one for the outer rubber-like shell. It's much easier to install than the Otterbox cases, but really feels just as protective - for less as well (paid less than $40). I said "Defender-like", so yes it comes with a holster - and it's almost identical to the Defender holsters.
Have any of you guys seen this case in any local stores? It feels like a pretty good one.
I haven't seen one in stores yet...because i have not been looking for one. I will see if i can find it...
What's the product number and can you post pictures of box it came in

OK, here are photos of the case this thread is talking about. Not much info on the case itself, and I threw the box away pretty quickly.
I took pictures of the box in the store. Its like $38. They show up fine in my gallery, so not sure why tapatalk is turning them sideways.

Apparently this is very new. Military tested specs, and it feels and looks much better than the Otterbox. I'm using a Thunderbolt for work with the Otterbox Defender. They look similar from a distance, but the look and feel in your hands is not even close. They also had one for the GS3. After several days of use, this has to be the best looking, best feeling, sleekest (relatively speaking, of course) heavy duty shock resistant case I've owned (and I've owned quite a few over the years).

Got this today and just luving it. Had the Body Glove Diamond white case before and it was a good quality but the Tough Suit case is perfect. Not too thick, built like a tank, this is the new batmobile from Christian Bale's Batman Trilogy if the other thin and slick cases are the stealthy slick batmobiles from the past xD
How are the buttons? Are they nice and tactile or stiff and mushy? That's what's bugging me about the D30 Impact case. The buttons are way too stiff and mushy (and before someone says I should hit the gym, I'm no chump. I can press them just fine, it's just annoying).
Just ordered one of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-OEM-Whi...727&pid=100015&prg=1006&rk=1&sd=290717667572& I think I'll review it once I get it.

I'm using this case as well and it fits perfectly and adds the exact amount of weight and size to it. Only thing was I got ripped off haha I think I paid 20 something for it and saw it on amazon for less than half of that. But I needed a case asap.

My co-worker has one of these on his black T989, he's happy with it, however I don't believe he's ever really dropped it so no drop-test experience with it. Oh, and those cases were also being sold at the T-Mobile store, for $29.95 label, no discount for clearing stock.

Got my Body Glove Diamond case a week ago and reviewed it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2004609
I also bought the black body glove case at Walmart and after 24 hours I'm loving it. The only gripe I had was the built in screen protector. I have zagg so I took a razor knife and cut it out. Couldn't ask for a better case.
I want one of these cases, but I can't find it anywhere.
Love my seidio active case and holster. Better than my old phones otterbox!
Just saying!
I have the galaxy for about 2 weeks now, and I'm afraid to pick it out the table with it's current cheap original case!
I'm looking for something new, something to guard it from falls and prevent any damage! I'm on a contract for the next 3 years, can't afford anything happen to the phone during this time.
basically, I want both protection for the back and the screen, so i came to the 3 options i mentioned in the title.
I don't care how much inches the case adds to the phone, if it's comfortable or not, if the screen loses it's quality! i only care for the case to give the best protection possible, one that will last for a while as well and not lose it's quality in a few month (something i heard about the defender).
so what do you think? which case answers this need best?
all are the same price from what i saw, 50$. i don't mind putting them, but are there any cheaper suppliers? but not with the chance of buying a fake case, prefer to spend the 50$ fully...
