I will stick with my $8 TPU case. I have been nothing but impressed with it.

Wow iPhone style pricing. Too rich for my blood, generic TPU case works for me too.
My wife has the Aegis case for her (my old) Vibrant. I LOVE the fact that the power button and volume keys become MUCH more usable than they are in a TPU case.
I'll be getting one of these for sure so I can stop fumbling to press the buttons through the case.
Even Cheaper!!!
I found the Trident Aegis for $24.99 shipped! At cyclopscase.com. Check it out...

The quality of a Trident case is obvious as soon as you hold it, it's definitely not solely about looks like so many iPhone cases. Better protection and build quality than anything except Ballistic IMO (based on the one I used with my Evo 4G).
I love TPU cases as well, and I switch between several nice ebay TPU versions and a silicone one currently, but I'll be getting either this or the Ballistic. You really can't compare the protection it offers to a TPU case. But then again, you may not need that level of protection (and the bulk that comes with it). I consider it cheap insurance.

The blue case is very tempting.. how much bulk does it add compared to something like the Case Mate Tough?

The easy assumption to make is that Trident has decided NOT to produce the Kraken due to what they see as a shortage of demand. Therefore, I suggest parties interested in the case make their desire clear to Trident on Trident's Facebook page. The alternative is to buy the Aegis and wait for the Kraken to be released for our phones once enough demand has been drummed up, but who wants to spend $30 on a "temporary" case?

Hey guys,
I used to post video reviews on the Nexus S and Galaxy S II forums but now that I've gotten my Galaxy Nexus I will start covering cases and accessories for the device. Today I've got the Diztronic TPU Matte Black Case, which is a simple case that hugs your device and offers a decent level of protection. I definitely like the look and feel, and apart from some minor annoyances, it's a definite winner.
Full review below:
Thanks for the review. A couple of questions...first, is the texture of the matte finish similar to that of a silicone case? I'm not a fan of silicone cases as they do not slide in and out of pockets well and also gather lint easily. Second, about how thick do you think the case is? I am wondering if it the phone will ever fit into a dock with the case on which has me confused as to why they would include the cutout for the 3 contact charging pins...Thanks again!

Hi,
The matte texture is similar but not as 'heavy' as the one on silicone cases, which tend to be sticky and tacky. This case slides in and out of the pocket very easily and as I mentioned, shows no fingerprints or dust collection.
The case is probably about 3 mm thick, perhaps a little less.
I'm sure the case won't fit in a dock, however there may be an alternate usage for the pins, we can only hope so!
nice review, how long did delivery take?

3 days and I am using the included screen protector you get within the package, will get the job done as it is pretty decent but there are better options.
Which screen protectors do you recommend though? I've tried a few here in the uk and they are all ****
I recommend any SGP screenshield. They've got 2 models currently. Sgpstore.com

Just another chime in... I've got this case and it works great on the GSM GN. I like the matte finish.
Like others I'm on the lookout for a nicer screen protector. The included one is just a tad small. Would prefer one that is large enough to slide under the edges of the case.

Do you think it would be possible to cut out a slot ourselves for the volume rocker?
Does the texture of the case make the phone slippery in your hand? I have a TPU case for my Galaxy Tab 10.1 that appears to be made of the same sort of material and it always would slip through my hands because it was a very hard texture. I ended up getting a high gloss tpu case for that which was a bit more grippy. How would you compare this to a high gloss? Do you think it offers a good amount of grip like high gloss or no?
Probably I'm going to buy this TPU skin, is seems to be actually the best (reading opinions in xda and amazon.com).
But i have a question about the screen protector that comes with te case: do it cover all the screen (or is it like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdRSRROffO4 ) ??
Thanks
edit: and, the TPU case is not glossy, true?

Screen protector that comes with it is smaller than the phone screen. Lets just say that it leaves 1.5 mm all around uncovered. That's why I have ordered another set of separate screen protectors now. But it gets the job done but I am not too happy with it.
Case is and isn't glossy. Sides and back is matte soft touch coating. However the front border of the case is shiny flexible rubber that looks pretty cool and gives it a high end look.
hope this helps.

Our eBay user id is: post3rs. I am using our case on the GSM version and it fits perfectly. I find the volume buttons to be extremely easy to press, although 1 customer told me they don't agree. In all honesty it might be one of the easiest volume buttons I've pushed on a TPU case.

Wow, thanks for the official support (I've read on amazon the review of the user that say the volume controls are not easy to press, and your answer to him)
Yes, I bougth the case from you, post3rs, it has shipped to italy today (I'm a.delu.59).
Now I'm more happy than before to bought the Diztronic case
I have this TPU case and I like it. The only thing I don't care for most of the TPU cases is while the power button is open, the volume rocker is not, so the case gets in the way somewhat. Now I guess I could get out my xacto knife and engineer my own solution but that's not the point LOL.
I started using the toughcase I got last week since I'm a little concerned there isn't enough TPU material to protect the phone? But...it's definitely thin and unobtrusive and feels good in the hand and it also doesn't block any of the ports. It also doesn't attract dust or pocket lint like a magnet like the toughcase silicone. There are tradeoffs for anything I guess.
I bought this case too, from Amazon, though in the smoke translucent matte version.
http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Tra...UTFO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1323792395&sr=8-1
It fits great. It's not loose at all, even though it's on a GSM version. You can read my review on that site.
I'm a bit finicky with my phones though, so I don't put it in my pocket. Too high a chance for lint/scratches otherwise, though scratches would be unlikely given the protection now. Finding a belt clip pouch to fit though was difficult. Especially for the phone with the TPU case on it! Finally got the largest one available at Verizon to work, though you really have to shove it in.
The provided screen protector is missing maybe a millimeter from either side, FYI.
Hi OneStepAhead, Are you going to have the glossy ones up on your ebay page soon also? I tried ordering from Amazon.com but they won't ship to Canada for some reason.
I bought these full price from Amazon since right now there are no case deals yet that I've seen.
Mustaner smooth hard minimal case
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KPEMZZS
I gave it a 3 star review - it definitely is smooth, but to the point it feels like it is going to slide right out of your hand. Also, camera cutout does not have a lip and the sensor sticks out slightly even with the case.
Ringke onyx case
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01K5I9CB4
This is the one I'm going to be running as my daily driver. Defintiely offers some good protection all around. The sides are textured and offer a nice grip to it. I'm giving it a 5 star because all around it is an awesome case. Adds a little bulk but nothing terrible that detracts from the phone.
I just wish there was a minimalistic case that had some slight texture and protected the camera.

I did a quick look at wallet case for the V20 .. there was only one model ahaha... until I find a full coverage case like otterbox/lifeproof I will stick to that. I doubt that my phone holster i got for the note 7 will work on with it though =/ It was design for the ip7 and the note 7 was slightly smaller so I knew that fit but v20 is bigger. Without the case I know it fit... with it ... errr >.>

I'm looking for the most minimalist case possible that will provide basically scratch protection...not really looking for one that is designed for "drop" protection.
Reason for the thinner case is due to my car holder clip which barely is able to keep my previous V10 without a case stable.
I was considering this one...https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LQV7VCQ/ref=psdc_3081461011_t2_B01M0HW9P4

There is several that "looks" the same, but is it worth going with the Spigen?
I have the spigen crystal on as I type this. Clean and minimalistic. Offers a raised lip around the display, and offers a raised lip around the camera bump. Solid non-slipping gripability on back and sides. A little too shiny and floppy around the edges though. A good basic protector.

Where the hell are the ringke or spigen slim hard cases I always buy?
Is it just me or does the case selection kind of suck so far on this phone? I know it's not even the official release date yet but hopefully the case selection will get better.

My go to case manufacturer has gauged not enough interest in this phone so Diztronic will not be making a TPU case or any case for it unfortunately.
I was looking for a rugged armour case that prevents the camera bump and found the two common types of cases.
One is with a tire tread-like design and the other one has a bubble-like design. Pictures in attachments.
Which one of these would you prefer and if you have had any experience with them please do tell.

"Bubble" case, with reviews:

"Tire tread" case, with reviews:

Another "tire tread" design:
https://www.amazon.com/Moto-Plus-Case-OMOTON-Motorola/dp/B06WP1WB2L
I can't tell if the second tire tread design is the same as the first; the back appears flatter, but it just may be lighting. Either model gets higher reviews than the bubble design, and it looks way cooler.
I bought the Moto G4 version of this case, and was pleased:
https://www.amazon.com/Cimo-Shockproof-Absorbing-Protection-Motorola/dp/B01N7MTNDA
I despise the "kick stands" on smart phone cases; the phone doesn't sit level face-up on a table when the stand is retracted, and has a tendency to rock.
My G5+ carries the boring Spigen TPU case:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XD1K5S6/ref=psdc_3081461011_t1_B06WP1WB2L
The Spigen fits VERY snug on the phone, the the TPU material is much firmer than I was expecting (in a good way); the button protectors are partially relieved for smooth button-pressing. I would get the Spigen again without hesitation.

Of all the rugged cases you listed, I personally prefer the last two (CIMO and SPIGEN), but I must say that I am quite a fan of SPIGEN rugged cases.
I had SPIGEN on my last three phones, included my current Moto G5 plus

Nice reviews on Amazon, but it sure is expensive:

FYI, their case also does a very good job of providing a noticeable tactile difference between the power and volume bottons. On this phone, it's really easy to press volume down instead of power on. This is one of the main reasons I like UAG. They do work on the small things.

Spigen and CIMO cases seem to have solid reviews. I also like the Supershieldz glass protector:

Well with not, what I consider really good options. I just went ahead and purchased this one.. if it sucks, then I will just send it back.. I would have preferred a Otter Box, since that is all I ever used.. But since they don't offer one for this phone. I just dove in and picked one with a lot of crappy reviews any. LOL What can I loose..

The built-in screen protector models usually get mediocre reviews; either folks love them or hate them. Some models get refraction, and others have sensitivity issues.
I've always purchased the self-apply screen guards and standard cases; I get more flexibility, and costs are significantly less.
Does anyone know of a battery case that fits this phone? I've been searching and can only find a few for the G5 models, nothing for the G5S+

By what do you mean battery case? I bought a case for this phone, but it hasn't arrived yet. I have already sent my Moto G5 Plus back to the store. So if you need a case I will give it to you if you want when it arrives.
FWIW, the Spigen-style case turned out much better than the Diztronic, and can be found on eBay for $2-4. Mostly corrects for what I consider to be a recent ergonomic design fad flaw: curved edges.
A case I had back on the S7 they are making for the S10e is
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MQRVRGG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I love that the case is a slim case with a stand so I can watch movies and it easly slide into the hoster and you can rotate the holster 90 as I like it in landscape.
Just though I would share it.
I had a Samsung case included, feels like rubbery plastic I don't like it at all, this has to be awarded as the slipperiest case in the world. Already ordered a Supcase I'll post pictures once it arrives
This one
Ringke Fusion-X Designed for Galaxy S10e (5.8") Case
I have it and love it. Reminds me of UAG case without the price. It's like 12 bucks in Amazon
Samsung Pattern Cover Cases
They come with the international versions free in the box. They have holes all over them, sell them from Samsung Store in Ireland. Seems they won't ship to the USA. Anyone know where I can buy a couple ??
Thank You very much,
Vinny

i found $3.39 on ebay. at first i wanted to try it but then changed my mind. not crazy about X design. I like more plain clear good quality tpu style or 2 layer hybrid. bought a different one for a around the same price with a ring holder. also has holes for a wrist strap.
I ordered spigen tough armor and I like it.

I got the tech21 in smokey black at Verizon when I got the phone. Nothing super special, just a semi-transparent TPU case. Does its job well and looks nice on my blue S10e, but it's just a TPU case, so I'm not sure it's worth what they're charging for it.
Does anyone have suggestions on a S10e case that is Fabric?
I have never had a fabric case but I thought I'd try one out. I can't find any except some really cheap looking Chinese knockoff things.
Anyone got any suggestions?

I've bought this on Aliexpress /item/Original-Samsung-Galaxy-S10-Plus-Canvas-Leather-Case-Cloth-Fabric-Finish-Back-Protective-Cover-For-Samsung/32985661092.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dAMGX9N
(Put aliexpress . com first)
Good quality, very soft, recommended.
But my personal (and the best) choice are the frosted shield from Nillkin cases.
Ressistant, VERY slim, good look, good grip and texture.

Check out MOFI brand case.
It has a soft fabric backing. I got it off Amazon about 15buck.
For those looking for a slim case, check out the Korean brand $10 Araree A Fit cases. The deep blue color is nice and fits the bill for me. They also have the Typoskin model available directly (but shipping is prohibitive). I am waiting for the $20 Araree Typoskin from a Korean eBay seller.
Why the A Fit or Typoskin? I wanted a low profile, business casual look (but not black so it's easy to spot in the dark), protective and not a fingerprint magnet. I used Diztronic for my S7 (which survived many drops on concrete!). I have accidentally dropped the S10e in the Araree A Fit a few times. The blue A Fit has good fingerprint resistance (the clear one might be different). It stays relatively clean all day, except during times when my hands are very sweaty.
Disclaimer: I have gone through (and returned) DOZENS of S10e cases from Amazon. We're a family of 4 with different cases ranging from $10 to $40: the Araree A Fit deep blue on a Prism Blue S10e, the Incipio NGP clear on a Flamingo Pink S10e, the Caseology Parallax black on a Prism Blue S10e and the Gear4 Piccadilly clear/white on a white S10e. I've tried all kind of cases from Spigen, Incipio, Encased, Pelican, Under Armour, Bodyguardz and various other lesser known brands.

I agree, it's a good case and I've tried two different Mofi cases. IMO, the lip rim around the front is a bit too soft/flimsy and not as tout/firm as I had found in other low profile cases (less firm, meaning, it may be less protective in case of drops).

At least from the renders on the Amazon listing, this is probably the best looking for the price, Spigen's Silicone Fit being a close second. Super interested in this case and don't see anything online so some photos of it would be great

Yeah there is no lip with glass protector at all with the MOFI. I have the MOFI, Blue speck, Spigen liquid air and xdoria defense (has a channel so the bottom speaker sound routes to the front instead of bottom)
The speck case is my favorite for the grippy lines it has and it has the biggest lip but the xdoria is nice for the sound routing feature.
I got ringke fusion smoked boarders, from their ebay seller handle, cheaper than amazon

I want one but I don't like the look of the silicone on the edges!
I'm going for soft all the way without regular tpu or silicone touching my hand (for fun)

Yeah I ended up returning the mofi bc there is no lip with a glass protector. The tpu on the edges is nice tho for grip mainly. I doubt there is a fabric that covers edges too.
