Quick overview for one of the cheapest and best built case I have used
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwRFAzS7QCg&feature=c4-overview&list=UURFzPAm9-Ci1AdaDejvEi0g
got mine about a week and and i love mine but i prefer my Air jacket more. (Just because it doesn't hide my motomaker back). one thing i had against it is that it fit crazy tight and i almost felt like i was breaking my phone when trying to remove it. it also made my buttons a bit more sensitive than i would have liked, but not to much that it would randomly turn on.
Yeah.. I agree its super tight coming off. Have to go slow taking it off that's for sure.

Thanks for the review: I was considering the Supcase. While you did point out the minimal face-protection: I found that the size of the protection around the front-sides is exactly what I was looking for as I am currently working near minerals quite often so having a bit of breathing space is ideal.

wow... :victory: Great and Great... thanks for sharing it..
I've been using the Supcase for nearly 2 months now and I've got the say for the price you can't beat it. The clear back option is great and I like it since it keeps the dimple intact!
Ergonomics for the win!
I must be the only person here or on amazon who did not like the supcase. It had a great fit but I just didn't like the hard plastic shell and sharp edges. I only used a few times then put on ebay. For a thin casr I much prefer my tpu case that was $12 cheaper.
My SUPCASE Clear/Black came in and I'm loving it. The only problem I have right now(which is ironic) is that it's actually too-loose around the power/volume keys which makes it hard pressing down on the keys.
Great review. The case looks breautiful. I just ordered one on amazon for $16.
Has anyone used this case with Shure SE215 headphones? I am concerned that the earphone jack won't fit through the case as the opening isn't particularly wide. Would hate to have to return the case if my earphones don't fit.
I see your supcase review. It's great. I want to know how much it with shipping expense?

I just got my S-line case (black) from eBay and I love it. It adds very little bulk, seems like it will do a good job protecting my phone, and looks very nice.
Definitely worth the $5!

There seems to be 2 types of materials, 3 finishes.
On mine, the clearish part is a slightly-bendable hard plastic with the texture of what all of my matte hard plastic. Think the type of plastic that is one most power adapters (that aren't shiny) but add a slightly bendable aspect to it.
The black part on the back is shiny, slick, smooth, and more flexible. It's similar to silicon cases (what I can assume you mean by soft gel/rubber) but I think it's still different. It seems to be less "floppy" even though it is very bendable. The shiny black part seems to "stick" to certain surfaces (such as my desk and other hard/flat surfaces) but not to some that you would expect (it doesn't stick to my pockets at all and glides just fine across my clothing, car seat, and non-leather furniture - it might stick to leather, I don't know). The black part on the front appears to be the same material as the black part on the back, but with a matte finish. The result of the different finish is that it doesn't have the "stickiness" on much of any surface, yet still gives your hand a slight bit of grip beyond what the stock TBolt gives you.
Overall, the "feel in hand" is comfortable and it gives you extra grip but doesn't feel sticky or anything like that. Imagine going from a slick, hard-plastic phone to a phone with a rubberized body (like our TBolt has). Going from a naked TBolt to this case is kinda like taking that one step further. But in no way could I ever describe it as "feeling sticky" in my hand or pocket.

So it looks like/feels like it's not going to just fall apart or anything like that, if that's what you mean. I can't envision drops/dings or other daily use wearing it down.
The ONE concern that I have about it holding up is because it is made with two types of "plastic" (I don't know if it's plastic, silicon, rubber, or whatever, hence my quotes). I fear that if I take the case off and on a lot (for my car dock), that the joints of the two plastics might start to come apart. This is NOT based on any quality issues that I have seen so far, just a concern based on the fact that this wasn't produced in a single mold when it was melted down (this is coming from somebody with an engineering background).
I will be shocked, though, if I have a problem with this case in the next 6 months, and for $5, well, I'd say that's pretty damned good!

Read my post a couple posts up about the 2 different types of materials with 3 finishes. As best as I can tell, the inside is the same material as the outside. What this means is that 60% of it is the very flexible plastic while the clear part does cover ~40% of the back. I would expect the black part to offer more protection to a fall/bump than the clear part, and fortunately the black part covers most of the corners and edges. Still, I expect the clear part to offer more protection than a hard plastic case would.
Updated the OP with some photos. Perhaps they will help.
thanks for the detailed feedback!
This case will also fit into the Verizon holster/shell combo holster. You just can't use the VZW shell, but it'll slide into the holster. The fit is a little snug, but it works. I like to swap out this case with the VZW shell. This one provies more protection, but the VZW one is pretty cool too.
In case anybody was wondering, I got mine from this seller from China: http://goo.gl/62Fhx
It took something like 10 days to get to me, but I didn't mind since it cost less than a good burger.

I received this today in mail from PC Micro. They had coupon for 20% off tablet accessories so ended up to be $26 shipped.
Here is my brief review, and I'll let pictures do the talking.
Build quality: Probably the best I have used for any case. I'm pretty frugal guy, I wouldn't pay an arm or leg for cases but this is one of the very best. It's genuine leather, thus it smells great and feels great. None of that cheap PU leather cases come even close.
Protection: I feel pretty safe with the Gtab 10.1 in this case. Obviously, it's less protection than the thicker cases but this is more than enough for most people's daily use.
Accessibility: All ports are cut out perfectly. Obviously you can't charge with the folio flap close, so you have to charge it with it open. It's also a thin case, so when you are trying to touch the lower borders of the tablet, the rim of the case wouldn't become obtrusive.
Others: There is a velcro flap to keep the tablet in the case so it wouldn't slide out with the case open. A very nice touch IMO. Also there is no magnet for closure. I purposely wanted a case without magnet, so this may be pro or con based on user preference.
Overall: 9.5/10 (I don't give 10/10s). This is as good a case you can get. Don't look any further.
Hi Gordec, thanks for your brief review.
Could you maybe expand it a bit more with your experience as far as using it as a stand? In both modes, for typing and vertical for viewing media or browsing?
Roocase
My friend had one for his Ipad(allple Suck)but the case was nice so I bought one for my galaxy and it was great ...love it made a great addition.
I just got the ultra slim case today and its amazing i dont like the leather one because it covers the bezel around the screen nd it kinda gets in the way with the screen but this case is amazing.. The ultra Slim one..
I just received this case yesterday and must say that I am pleasantly surprised. I was afraid that the advantages of a case would not outweigh the added thickness and weight. However, what makes this case so great is the stand feature. It is so easy to use and type on the tablet when it is perked up on your lap or on the table in front of you. If you are on the fence I'd recommend this case 100%.
Edit: I have the "multi-angle" one (search Amazon)
I have been using this for a few weeks now. It's is a nice little case. Workmanship is vastly better than the comparably priced Acase I returned when the stitching started unraveling.
I dunno if this has happened to any of you guys but after having this case for about 2 months now, I decided to take the tablet out and give it a clean. Lo and behold I noticed that the case has discolored the back of the tablet. I have tried using alcohol to clean it with a cloth but no dice. Anyone else got this?

Rats! I have been using mine for three weeks and this has not happened yet. Should I just nip this in the bud and move to a better case? Any suggestions as to a good upgrade? I'd prefer something thin.
I don't have a recommendation for you other than to warn you to get another case before yours becomes discolored like ours.

I know this is an old thread but I just wanted to add that I have this case and have been using it for about three months now. I just checked the back of my Tab and it's pristine. I have the metallic gray back though, not the white plastic. It's a really great case-if you have the metallic back, don't let the complaints scare you-it looks like the discoloration only happens to the white plastic ones.
This case is pretty nice, I have the Diztronics Matte Case and this far superior.
EDIT: It appears I messed up with adding images, so I provided direct links to a Picasa album under the corresponding text.
First off, I'd like to point out its design.
https://picasaweb.google.com/103360287160249925033/GNexTPUCaseReviewImages#5694664838498885570
This case uses a combination of three forms of TPU.
The back uses two, and the side has the third. From the photo, the majority of the back is matte with a gloss design on the side of the back.
Now for the TPU on the actual sides on the phone:
https://picasaweb.google.com/103360287160249925033/GNexTPUCaseReviewImages#5694666212754847586
It's a nice textured form of TPU that provides a great amount of grip without making the phone impossible to slide in and out of a pocket or gather dust like silicon. It may just be that I'm fourteen, but I always found the Galaxy Nexus a bit slippery, or maybe it's because of this the darn phone gets, which looks great but isn't entirely practical.
The case itself doesn't add much to the size of the phone, but it provides decent, and very eye catching protection.
https://picasaweb.google.com/103360287160249925033/GNexTPUCaseReviewImages#5694664844600398466
The back of the case is also raised near the camera to prevent scratches that phones like the EVO were plagued with.
https://picasaweb.google.com/103360287160249925033/GNexTPUCaseReviewImages#5694666188166111906
The volume buttons get a dedicated cover, as expected, but makes them feel mushy, but they're really small to begin with.
The cutouts on the phone are pretty big and shouldn't have any issues, and there is also a double-holed thing at the bottom for lanyards.
https://picasaweb.google.com/103360287160249925033/GNexTPUCaseReviewImages#5694666177130719426
This is overall a great case, for its price its pretty hard to beat as well. You can find it here on Amazon.

I should receive the Diztronic Matte Case sometime next week, I was hoping for that to be an improvement on this! (OP doesn't think so! )
I like that. I am using the stock one from Verizon. I am still waiting for a good case, but this one is pretty nice. I want a clip too I think. However, I break clips by bumping into things

Anyone know if I were to purchase an extended battery if it would fit with this case? Any extended batteries you'd recommend (for GSM) that won't break the bank (or my phone)
I ordered a clear one from amazon for $1.75. My old smoke TPU case was turning a bit yellow so I ordered this to replace it for a while. I'll post pics if anyone is interested.
Yeah I wouldn't mind seeing that thanks
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...

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 got one from ebay for $9.00. Best $9 I ever spent. Its hard rubber, fits well and feels great.
Only issue is note doesnt sit great on my charging stand but it still makes enough contact to charge.

I would have t I agree with gatesjr and patt2k, the tech21 case is one of the best cases i have had. Its slim, relativly sticky when placed on glass or other similarly hard surfaces, and has minimal screen blockage around the edges making it relativly easy to say drag a icon from one screen to another. It was a little pricey compared to some of the 2 part silicone/plastic cases for 9 or 12 dollars on amazon (which i like them to have had good luck with them) but overall this case is my favorite. All holes line up and just feels plain good in the hand. Plus when i take my phone out of it to clean it up, it still looks like it came from the factory ?
