I Just saw a review of this case for the galaxy S4 and its perfect. It protects the front and the back at the same time.
Is there anything similar for the S3?
theres a good thread in this forum with pictures and everything.

Thanks but That's not what I asked. I want to know about a Spigen Slim Armor VIEW for our S3, with the front flip cover protection.
http://www.spigen.com/galaxy-s4-case-slim-armor-view.html
spigen slim armor does not exist for galaxy s3
the case you want is not available for S3.
I'd suggest looking at this one: elago G5 Slim Fit Case for Galaxy S3
9 bucks on Amazon, prime shipping, lots of color choices.
It doesn't provide a lot of protection, but I'd say it's good enough for most drops.
I'm not sure why people want to protect the front screen. I keep my phone in my pocket with keys and other things and have never managed to scratch the gorilla glass.
I have the Samsung original protective cover plus on my S3 and it's great. Good protection and excellent design, similar to the phone's design. I thought it was enough. But taking it from my pocket it slipped from my hand. I managed to have good reflexes and made it hit on my foot but after that in landed on the ground. The ground was not plane so the glass broke. Very small and stupid fall and it broke instantly. Everything works but it looks terrible. It's 140 euros to change it on a store or I can try changing it myself for 30 euros, risking damaging the phone forever. That is why I want a case like that but one that is not a horrible pouch, which I don't like. (seems like a condom). I, like yourself, also thought that a non slim and full body case was over the top, like the otterbox defender, until it happened to me.

there's in general 3 types of casing,

Back covered casing
which type case of yours?
My cute case,it is just one of.
To make it easy to change a baterry, I cut the back of a case!
In addition...Originally SGP ultra hybrid case was made for 1750 battery so it's not compatible well with 2000mah extended battery.
But now it goes well with 2000mah extended battery
Cool, think this would make it work with the lte version? How does it feel with the back cut out? Is it still pretty solid or does it move when you squeeze it?

Wait is this the ultra hybrid or the neo hybrid? Based on the color I'm guessing it's the latter.

Sorry for the mistake! This case is Neo hybrid case.
And... because neo hybrid case is composed of a hard bumper part(polycarbonate) and soft part(polyurethane) so it wouldn't fit...i think
It fits very well and it's protective(i dropped my phone several times but no breaks), more slim than before. No problem about moving!
I did the same thing two weeks ago when I ordered mine (bought it specifically to cut the back out)
Just wondering what you guys used to cut the soft rubber part?
I'm keen on trying this since the eBay bumpers are poorly made, but I can't see myself cutting it cleanly enough with an Xacto blade.

also in the link posted above, people with the LTE GNEX have purchased the case and said that once the back is cut out it fits but they struggle a little to get the button to fit with the rubber part after inserting the plastic part.
So you basically turned a Neo Hybrid into a Neo Hybrid EX which is not as of yet available for the Gnex.
Neat !

A ridiculously sharp knife, maybe?
Nice Millie! I'm considering cutting the back out of my Neo Hybrid, as it's warped pretty bad and trapping dirt and dust between the case and the phone. I love the case otherwise, though. It saved my phone from a nasty 4ft fall (more of a throw) on concrete and it looks awesome. Other than the warped rubber and the super slippery plastic, it's perfect!
I think I might use my Honeybee for that task, though. Small and precise.
This is just amazing work! I didn't go through the reviews enough before ordering Neo Hybrid and now when I have already ordered one, came to know about the sagging problem. This right here would be an awesome idea to get rid of that problem. Just wanted to ask one thing though, the gap between the back cover and outer plastic shell is noticeable? It does seems so in the attached pic but is it too much?
You probably won't be able to tell this but does the back cover of the phone touches the surface when rested at the back or the outer shell only stays in touch with the surface and back cover being slightly in air?
Also, was it too hard slicing the thin rubber?
Thanks in advance man!

I need a screen protector that covers the entire front of the phone, so that nothing is exposed. I work machining metal and would easily mess up any uncovered area.

The front lip is slightly smaller than the defender, but still offers very good protection.

This. Aside from the average screen protector provided, this case is sexier, thinner, and more ergonomic in my hands than any of the otterboxs. The smooth matte finish is fantastic with great grips on the side to make sure you have a nice grasp of your phone.
I think eventually, since this screen protector does not curve at the edges, nor does it completely cover the screen, I will purchase a higher grade protector for that final bit of comfort. This is a fantastic case that guards the phone at every angle.
My heart still wants a UAG though..

Although I haven't seen too many cases up close, I think I would agree. The Diztronic case is slim enough to easily slide into a pocket, it fits the phone really well, and it doesn't cover anything that shouldn't be covered. I had a cheap one from Koodo first, but I hated how it covered the power and volume buttons. The Diztronic case was cheaper and looks a lot better too...just wished they had more colour options available.

I thought it was a cool case at firsst..... but then it became to cumbersome pressing the buttons & I didnt like the fact that the case made the phone a little wider. for protection the otterbox cases are the way to go but they cann be bulky, I bought myself a diztronic case and I love the fact that its fits perfectly on the phone with access to the buttons and no extra width added to the sides of the phone :good:
I bought one of the fishbone cases and am very happy so far with it. I guess it's a hybrid case in a sense.
The Diztronic is the best case I have ever had, my wife has no complaints with hers either.

No but really all you need is a case with a bumper that extends so the glass can't be the first thing to hit the hard surface. I've become a fan of cases that combine TPU and a hard barrier.

this plus a case,(personally I went with an otterbox) and you will never have a problem.
Get a tempered glass protector (I got mine from Spigen), and then a case. That will protect your screen.
I use an xoskins http://xoskins.com and a case. It doesn't have orange peel like other skins and won't get scratched with sand or lint. Cases I prefer otterbox
