Ewonder case w/ bt keyboard, anyone try it?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...VW5_3?ie=UTF8&m=A2ZATBG5IJYVW5&n=&s=&v=glance
Just ordered that off amazon, how is it? Has anyone tried it?
I'm also looking to get a screen protector but not sure which one to get. I want one that doesn't change the feel of the screen at all like the mybat brand does on my galaxy s2.

I have it, and I'll be honest at first I was a little concerned, it looks and felt cheaply made at first site, but once I put in the tablet and I got it working it works great. I tend to forget to turn the keyboard off for days at a time and it still holds a charge days later. I haven't had any issues with the connection, the placement of the apostrephe key is a little odd, but other than that I love it.

Oh and the "stand" version if it is okay, but I prefer to lay down and/or sit so I have to hold my legs a little funny sometimes. You can't charge it while it's standing or closed though, that's a little dissapointing.

1. It's a good keyboard for the price.
2. There is a little ghost key problem.
3. It's a silicon keyboard.

Metallic/gNex type battery cover for Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi, everyone when I saw the engadget's first hand on video with Galaxy S III, I did saw the battery cover does attracts fingerprints a lot, actually not surprised but I wondered if someone would come up with a battery cover as an accessory. A metallic battery cover or the battery cover like galaxy nexus. I know that Samsung is stick with plastic because of overall weight of the device but some changes like this (the battery cover) would have been favourable for Samsung. A kickstarter project will be welcomed.

This is a great idea, this is one of the aspects of the phone I do not like. I hope some of the accessory makers make some funky back cases. Or I am hoping for some leather skins from Zagg to stick over the back

Alloy or Ceramic back cover for S3
That’s can be an excellent idea but not sure the wireless charger will work with ally back cover

It has been proven that metal cover leads to risk of fire/death/destruction with wireless charging, so plastic is the way to go, and far more shock absorbent than metal (car bumpers)

Wireless charging will apparently need a different back cover which will be included in the wireless kit, so probably worth waiting until pictures of that emerge before looking at other battery covers.

I was holding back for one, I want one either all clear or the actual pebble blue colour (blue/silver streaks) and this seems the closest by looking at the link.
i'm not sure if it's a full coverage, even if it's 1-2mm off the edge, it's fine with me, as long as it's the stated colour, as it should look OK.
BTW i made the last purchased.

He relist them just now. I went ahead and purchased one. Recently bought the DBA real class feel platic screen protector, pretty disappointing, rainbow streak and only cover the display portion...oh well lesson learned, hopefully this will be much better

Looks like the glue is only on the edges like on the SGP. Can anyone confirm?

the whole thing has adhesive, not just the edge.

So sick of buying different protector...I think this is my 4th one, and hopefully the last one on my search to the perfect protector. Everything looks good, let's hope it doesn't have the proximity issue, dots matrix effect or touch issue...

I can't comment on the proximity issue, this protector is clear, no dot's, that xgear failed sample, and because this screen protector is adhesived with the whole screen, i'm sure it's ok with sensitivity, but let just wait and see for the actual item once we get it.

I thought the protector has a blue cutout similar to the Spectre one? Guess we'll find out soon enough, from the pictures on Ebay, the pebble blue cutout look the most like OEM color (blue with silver streaks)

if you look at the one of the diagram, the one with a star pointing to the screen, you can read the first one as full attachment..
edit:
when I say clear, I mean the screen part without dot, sorry for the misunderstanding.

I actually would prefer it if this product does not cover the screen entirely. I am currently using the Spigen Neo Hybrid case and it does cover the edge of the screen a little.

I think this protector leaves the edge uncovered.

Damn looks promising!
Only a glass protector is an option for me now, all others are a waste of money.

[Q] Slide out keyboard & integrated case

I have a few of my users (yes IT manager here) asking if there is a physical keyboard for the s3 that is integrated with a case. They want the equivalent of this:
http://www.amazon.com/Ultra-thin-Sliding-Bluetooth-Keyboard-iPhone/dp/B0054KMWF2/ref=sr_1_3
They all know that any bluetooth or keyboard can work with it, they just wanted an integrated version as they prefer a bulkier s3 vs separate items.
I've looked around a bit and couldn't find anything, does anyone know where I might be able to find one? Or perhaps know a company that is making one now?
Thanks!

There are none :/
Sent from my SGH-T999

I think there are..but no idea how you would get one.
http://www.ele-boat.com/Details.asp?ID=1

I've often wanted something like this when I need to answer a bunch of emails when I'm out and about. There are a bunch for iphones, but I've yet to see one to fit an Android device. It seems like if any phone would get one, the GSIII might. I've also wondered why nobody can seem to make the slider keyboard with an interchangeable TPU case to fit different models.

On eBay I came across this,
it's not really fit like the slider you mentioned though.

You know why you can't find one?
because it would make the camera useless, and severely diminish the speaker.
no-one has made a small enough keyboard to not cover them. the closest anyone has gotten is that computer generated render, in the previous posts that is not for sale.
it WILL happen.. just wait.

That's neat, but i wonder if the "hinge" can hold itself up
---------- Post added at 02:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 PM ----------
maybe someone needs to make a Gameklip-style thing, but for holding these micro-bluetooth keyboards (patent pending )

What would seem more practical and allow use of everything is the keyboard folding down. When it is closed laying against the screen with a flap or something separating keyboard and screen. You works have a full keyboard and since Bluetooth the keyboard could be used with other phone with the same case. Any case makers watching here... do it live. I've thought about it for over a year. I also have a good idea for amplifying phone speakers with battery any bulk. It works to made myself one.

It probably will (the hinge) hold, got a case from ebay and it was daaamn tight, surprisingly, it is still holding pretty good.

Like these?... http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trk...kw=galaxy+s3+keyboard+case&_sacat=0&_from=R40
The only concern I'd have about these is that they seem to just have a "soft" hinge (ie. just the material), so it probably wouldn't support itself. Something like this would be great though if it was a hard case (think Nintendo DS), as it would protect the screen when closed.

Do you have a link? or to a similar one?

I hate physical keyboard that is soo old school. It's 2012 and we need to be up to date with technology.

Ignore the trolls. Any word on finding this sliding case for US purchase?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2

Not a good answer, but you can get a simple OnTheGo USB cable, and plug any USB keyboard in. Handy if you are going to do a lot of work on the phone. Not that you would carry a USB keyboard around.

FYI ele-boat says it'll be available for purchase November 10th.

iFace Anti-shock Case

What do you guys think?
Here's a link to the shop on ebay: Link.
I'm looking for something a little stylish in design and came across this.
I'm trying to favor Form over the actual function of a case. I'm almost tempted to get this one, but I wanted to see what others had as an opinion on it.

This case looks very similar to the iOttie Macaron case (see here)
If it is similar to that case as in feel and fit for the phone then I will buy this case immediately. I loved my iOttie for my iPhone 5 when I had it.

im really digging this case. might get it when funds arrive lol. anyone wanna buy a cruzer lite case? lol

I got my case in the mail over the weekend. I'll post pictures later.
Overall, it's very nice. The grip feels very good in the hand, and the case itself makes a perfect fit around the phone. The buttons aren't too tight like I've seen on other cases, but they make good enough contact that they work with every press. I'd even go as far as saying that pressing the buttons in the case feel more tactile than pressing the buttons on the phone itself.
My one complaint has to do with the rounded back. Oftentimes when I'm at restaurants or sitting at my desk, I'll set my phone on the table to use it. The rounded back makes the touch screen awkward to use as the case tends to slide the phone around a bit, or spin in place. I'd also gripe that the "iFace" logo is upside down when the phone is in proper landscape mode for camera use. No big deal though.
I got my case in the Android shade Lime-green color, but it comes in many different colors.
Also, Shipping took exactly two weeks for me, but YMMV.

It's not a whole lot to look at, but hopefully it helps. Excuse the orange paint stains on my kitchen counter. It's really bothering me in these pictures.
The back. Ample enough protection for the camera lens.
Spoiler
I really like the rounded contours along the perimeter of the phone. it feels good in the hand. It's got a soft rubbery grip. I actually nearly dropped my phone while taking one of these pictures, luckily for the grip...I managed to catch it in time.
Spoiler
The space for the MicroUSB and 3.5mm jack: Could be a bit tight for some, but works for all of my cords. My largest USB has quite a snug fit.
Spoiler
EDIT:WHELP, spoiler tags don't work like I assumed. Also, If you notice the ruler in the background, I was going to try and get some measurements, but a paper ruler doesnt do me very good when trying to figure out a difference between a couple milimeters. As far as thickness goes, the case doesn't even add a full milimeter. The sides are a bit of a different story, due to the rounded edges.

iFace case is strongly recommended for the Optimus G. It is very good quality with excellent grip.
Here is a link;
iFace first class Optimus G case

I've had a number of....accidental drop tests. This is truly a great case. The rubber bump-edge really does an excellent job protecting from falls. These aren't just little baby falls either, for instance, last night, my poor little phone fell from my hand, about 5 feet onto hard brick flooring. I've yet to acquire a single scratch anywhere on my phone!
