Bought this one off of eBay for $4.25 shipped. They have numerous colors and they usually go for about what I paid at auction via bid, buy it now for a few more dollars. Search "dual layer hybrid case s3" and you'll find them. Figured I'd give everyone a heads up who like the ballistic style cases because for the price you can't go wrong.
Now to my review... Fits surprisingly well, conforms to the phone tight. Buttons all line up fine, only negative is I had to trim a small amount around the charge port in order to get the charger to fit as snug as stock. As far as protection it looks as if it will do very well. Thick bumpers to protect the edges and a plastic hard case to protect the sides & rear. This case also feels way lighter and makes the phone feel much smaller than my otterbox defender did. Pretty happy with the case for the cost! Anyways here's a few pics.

Finally found a case I like, the Momax i Case Pro.
Price was around $11 USD shipped.
Reason I like this case is thick enough for basic protection and thin enough not to add any bulk.
I been looking at some of the slim case, most of them doesnt add protection to the screen side of the phone.
I think this is a great case for people who wants a slimr cases but wants protection to the edge on screen side of the phone.
The edge is made out of soft rubber materials and thin hard plastic.
As you can see the edge that stick out on the screen side is very thin.
Just enough to cover the metal-like that goes around the SGS2 screen.
Rubber button are easy to press.
Back is thick enough for camera screen not to touch a flat surface.

From the photos it appears this picks up dust/lint easily?
Can you say?
I decided to try a TPU case for my Gnexus. After reading a lot of reviews one of the main complaints was the lack of a cut-out for the volume rocker. After some looking I came across this on ebay.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/190612336399?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_2147wt_1163
I am very pleased with this case. It fits great and seems to fit better with the VZW extended battery. The case is very snug but not overly tight. All the cut-outs are just right. No ruff edges. I haven't used the screen protector yet so I can't comment on that.
My only complaint is because it is glossy, it shows fingerprints like crazy.

Overall, definitely worth $10.
i love how dirt cheap cases from china are always the best.
I bought an 's-wave' TPU case from china for £1.75, it's incredible! excellent fit, great protection and looks amazing, all for 10% of some of the big brands! I'm so impressed I ordered another two!
Got a link to the item on eBay?
After one that doesn't attract dust and finger prints.
This is the one I bought, quick delivery, great product, fantastic price!
I might be one of the few guys left who still use a leather belt holster, but I've been doing it for years, and simply don't like keeping my phones in my pockets.
The GS3 is a beast by itself, and the case I've got it in right now is a otter clone... plastic clam shell with rubber skin... which adds lots of bulk, but does protect it.
Here's the deal, I've got a leather holster that will hold the phone "naked" - but its SOOO tight that by adding ANY case, it doesnt fit in the holster anymore... Then add this tank, and forget it! :laugh:
Has anyone out there found a way or a holster that would hold a GS3 with one of these otter style cases?

Just wanted to post some pics of this pouch I picked off of Etsy, I have ever purchased anything on Etsy prior to this but there is definitely some good stuff on this site.
https://www.etsy.com/listing/167585422/brown-leather-nexus-5-sleeve?ref=shop_home_feat
Overall the quality of the pouch is great, the leather is real deal stuff and feels great in the hand however I think the company didnt have a Nexus5 in hand to test the fitment with, as mine is quite loose and a great deal bigger in width than my Spigen SGP Crumena case that my N5 fits in width wise but sticks out at the top as it is not long enough.
It adds alot more bulk than what im looking for in a pouch so I think ill have to return this one unfortunately. The quality overall is great though, maybe they will redesign it in the future, or send me one that is more suited for N5..
Pics!

I was contacted by Karl from Armadillotek Inc, he sent a bunch of cases for my s21 fe.
They are famous for their super duty case on XDA, but this time the slim armor does impress me!
Fits perfectly, very tight fit.

Feels good in the hand, not cheap/flimsy. The added weight and dimensions are perfect for me. Doesn't feel TOO slippery in the hand.
Raised top/bottom/ and camera area for protection, whether you place your phone face down or face up on a flat surface. Sides are flush with the screen. Button presses feel great. Openings are all in the proper locations.
Case works with wireless charging ). Company branding is prominent on the rear bottom portion of the case.
Overall, love the case and would recommend it.
It is $15.98 on Amazon, use coupon AMDTEK20 can save your 20%
