Which hard case would you recommend?

I much prefer slim hard cases, typically seidio brand. I can't seem to find a good alternate. Quality is much more important to me than price. What do you guys suggest?

I'm on my fourth case and they all suck. One scratches the phone. One turns it off when I'm not looking. One fits too loosely, and one got all dirty the first day.
I'm going to buy this one next in silver. I like the fact that it looks like there's really no case and it got good reviews on the case mate site. I'll let you know how I like it if you want.

I've been using my case-mate tough case ever since they came out with them, and I can't speak highly enough about the quality and fit.

I tried this case in silver and sent it back. I found that it degraded my phone signal. Of course, AFTER I buy it I do some searching and find other complaints on the silver cases for various phones.

I haven't noticed any issues with the silver barely there case that I just got. But as far as protection goes, probably not the best one for this thread's request.
I also have a tough case, which I highly recommend for anyone looking for a solid case for protection.

Case-mate tough case is great, as someone allready stated I cannot recommend it strongly enough. You won't find a better case for the money or more imo

What about the body glove case? I was looking at that one for a hard case. What do you guys think about it? Anyone use it?

I have a body glove case and frankly it leaves alot to be desired. The case easily doubles the thickness of the phone, and with out fail turns out my jean pockets every time I use it. I'm not sure if i got a bad case or what but the case does not seal properly all the way around the phone. I have had the misfortune of dropping my case from table height (appx 3ft high) and the body glove case did protect the phone wonderfully. I have the full black and chrome case, not the clear back shell. I am in the process of deciding on a different case and thus far I am heavily leaning towards the case-mate tough case.

Mesh case. Love it... every other case makes a thin phone too large.

Hope that doesn't happen with the one I just ordered. But everything else you say about the case sounds great to me. I don't know how many times I have almost dropped the phone from it slipping out of my hands while pressing the volume or power buttons. Do the black Case-Mate cases have a rubberized feel to them?

My vote is for the bodyglove case. I have been through 4 cases and this far is my favorite. It protects gives the extra bulk and looks slick. It also has a kick stand which I use all the time.

Case Mate tough case for me. Silicone inside prevents scratches and tough plastic outside offers some protection from falls.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Here is a couple pics of the body glove in action. By the way it protects well I have dropped it a couple of times and the case comes apart instead of the phone breaking. I dont know how you wear your phone but I slide the phone in my pocket with the clip sticking out.

Trident Case for Samsung Vibrant
Got the TPU case, good fit, but feels cheap. Got the mesh case, looks decent but not much protection. Got tired of waiting for Otterbox. Almost got the CaseMate Toughcase but they only come in black or pink. Then I came across this last week. Check out the plugs and the buttons, even the back camera has clear cover over it. Liked the attention to details so pre-ordered it. According to the website, they're being shipped this Wednesday 11/17. Since I'm new, I can't post the link, here are some photos of the product. Just google Trident Cyclops Samsung Vibrant. Be sure to "Like" them on Facebook to save the $6.00 shipping. I wish ElementCase would make an ION3 or Liquid Carbon for Vibrant. I'm so sick of iphony and ipotty getting all the good cases.

I got my silver case mate barely there and it is awesome. I guess it is more of a looks than protection thing, but the front of the case is over the bezel so when the phone is face down there's still a gap. The silver is really good looking. Case mate also sent it the day I ordered, and I got it from GA to CA in 3 days.

Are you sure it wasn't just a coincidence? The complaints were about the chrome, not the metallic silver. I haven't seen anything, and my phono widget says the signal is as strong as ever.

I really like this:

- sorry - no outside links allowed on my xda account yet(?). You can figure out what shoud go in the spaces...
It's hard plastic with a rubbery feel. It's smooth enough to slide into my pocket and not pick up lint, but sticky enough that it can sit on my center armrest in the car without worrying about it sliding off.
There's also about a 1/16th inch high border around the screen that does a good job of keeping down any chance of a drop resulting in the screen touching anything the ground.

Figures!!! The upper left corner of the body glove case doesn't want to keep closed. I just sent an email to the seller for a refund. I'm thinking of just getting a extended battery with a rubberized back cover, and a new pouch to fit it.

Yea that's why I have the casemate now, hopefully you didn't order it on ebay there was this one seller that I bought it from and he would not repond to my messages about the case, also my bodyglove case won't stay closed at all anymore. I just think their quality control isn't all that great.
The tough case feels like abs plastic and is textured so it doesn't catch on pocket lining when you pull the phone out your pocket but it still feels good ib your hand and doesn't feel like its going to slout og your hands

Looking for the thinnest case?

I really like the Seidio cases and wondering if there is another really thin case?
Thanks

Barely There by Case-Mate. But doesn't really offer any protection from being dropped. Other than that I love it

cool
Just want something to keep the desk scuffs off, not worried about dropping
Thanks

That's the one. $13 at Newegg. Dropped my phone plenty of times no damage

I agree, I love this case. Most people can't even tell my Evo has a case on it. I've been told many times that I was an idiot for having a "naked" phone. It's great to show these people that the phone is protected and then ask them, "who's the moron now!"

Yeah, for me I am not really worried about dropping the phone. I just wanted something that I can gently toss/ slide on the table and not have to worry about the camera lens scratching.
Even then I thought the Barely There case made the phone kind of wide. LOL. Now I just brought the Sprints Extended battery to make my phone last through the day and at the same time I can get ride of the wideness of the phone. It is now thicker but still easy to hold.

The best cases I have been able to find are the knockoff TPU Cases on eBay.
They are durable as all-hell (practically scratch proof) super thin and add very little bulk to the phone. They also protect the screen and camera with slightly raised lips. The side buttons are extremely responsive in these cases as well plus the cases are about $2.50 so they are a great value. If you get the black case, it will be difficult to tell that your phone is even in a case at all.

Look for the cases that have the little red tag on the back, these are the best ones. There ones that come in bright transparent colors without the tag are thicker and the side buttons are harder to use with them.

Here are ones I sell for 10 bucks free shipping, you can get these of amazon or ebay but the ones I see are alright quality but hey search around

for 2 bucks, couldnt resist. thanks for the tip.

Go into the kitchen and get a piece of plastic wrap! Really thin and cheap!

Definately rock the tpu, they are thin, cheap, durable, not flimsy like the silicone models, and kind of grippy so they don't slide around much- in the car. You won't be disappointed.

I vote for casemate barely there as well... I dropped my evo out of my SUV( like an idiot it was in my lap and I forgot) and it landed in the street and my screen was fine. I know a couple people who have had there screen shatter using the Innocase so I think it is more about luck on if your screen shatters or not. So I am just using the Phantom Skinz black carbon fiber Chromatics. if my screen breaks it breaks, that is my fault lol.

Seidio Innocase 2 Surface are somewhat thin and offer good protection. Bestbuy rebrands that case as the "Platinum Series"

+1 on casemate
I'd been through 4 or so cases before I settled on the Barely There case by Casemate.
Other cases were either lint magnets or actually damaged by phone with scuffing and scratching when I removed and put them back to get access to the battery or whatever.
There was no point in trying to keep it pristine anymore so I wanted to go naked with it, but the camera was still an issue. No case means the camera can get scratched since it's raised. So I found the Barely There case and it's the closest I can come to going naked but having some minimal protection for the body of the phone and also keeping the cam lens away from surfaces when I place it down.

I don't like the 2 piece hard shells, if you drop them you're usually done with the phone as they snap off

Black Bumper for S3 (HQ pics) Recommend!!

Let me start this review just by saying that i love bumper cases. I
have been looking over the internet to find the best bumper case for
our Galaxy s3. I came across this case. Its a STRONG silicone bumper
that completes me in every aspect.
First of all. Its cheap. I think that everyone can try a cheap case
and if they dont like it, they throw it to their dog. (hehehe) Guys,
seriously. this is the best bumper case i have seen over the internet.
Why? It has a nice touch when you are holding your
phone. VERY nice touch. You will want to just hold your phone because
it has a nice feel Second of all: PROTECTION. And i mean it. Front,
back and sides are fully protected.
Front side (screen): the case has a slight bump on the edges so if the
phone drops the floor, its still protected (floor not the road hehe).
Back: Again, the case has a bump on the edges. So if your phone drops
on the back, protected!!! if you want to lay down your phone on a
table: PROTECTED.
Sides: Full protection, which is obvious why: its the case hehe.
Buttons: FULLy accessible button, both power and volume buttons. They
are covered by a soft silicone so there are very easy to press
(compare to the other tpu case i have reviewed)
I dont know if there are more colours available. You must check on
sellers ebay site.
Rating: If this case would be rated its a rock solid 5/5. Believe me
on this. It defenently worths every peny guys. I even compare it with
a TPU bumper case, that i have reviewed last week, amd this is by far
better.
Enjoy the pictures. I tried to take as many as possible.
I will review more bumper cases in the near future so stay tuned.
You can buy this on this link:

Nice review! Around the volume rocker it might need a little work but I've already ordered one of these.. 4$ shipped to Canada and it looks decent.

Do you guys mean the material of the case degraded? This is all one-piece right? I was JUST shopping for my first bumper case and saw some aluminum ones that snap or screw together, but it seemed like the TPU ones are just a single piece of material and wrap around the edges.

Its a single piece mate. Plus you dont lose any signal plus its a snap in snap out plus its veryyy cheap

How does this fit with a zag shield?
Galaxy S3 Paranoid ROM.

I think that with the zagg shield you will be ok. The case has already a tight fit so its better not to use extra protection underneeth. I dont think you need zagf shield for the back cover because its already protected from the case.

If it is anything like the one for the Galaxy Nexus (and it appears to be the same), there is a hard plastic material used on the rear portions of the bumper, while the piece which surrounds the screen is flexible rubber. With the GN, the two materials separated.

Thanks for the review, I ended up buying the same one but in white. I'm guessing they come from china because this thing isn't going to arrive for like three weeks haha. Oh well whatever.
My clear diztronic tpu case is starting to turn yellow and blue from my jeans so I really need something else. For three bucks I hope it holds up for a little while.

Do you think the the bezel or screen would get damaged if I dropped it from pocket height and it hit the corner on cement? Just wondering if I should still be extra careful when using this bumper.

Anyone running a case?

Hi All,
I am a S7 Active owner since launch day and really love the phone. Just curious if anyone is running a case or bumper-style case on the phone? I know the rubberized coating on the perimeter of the phone does a decent job, but if I could find something slim and good looking I may consider it just to protect from scuffing the perimeter and screen/back.
Chris

Cimo case here. love it. was getting rid of old phone stuff and came across some apple stickers; had to do it lol. nice slim tight fit, love it. also got glass screen protector which i highly suggest as the screen is polycarbonate plastic on top and WILL scratch easily.
https://www.amazon.com/Galaxy-Cimo-Premium-Flexible-Samsung/dp/B01ETKGOTW

Got a otterbox for it. The holder kinda sucks which can let the phone fall out in extreme situations and turns the phone into a bulky cumbersome brick but a indestructible cumbersome brick.

I am a case addict and have a case for every scenario:
Otterbox Defender for extreme scenarios.
BodyGuardz case for medium/heavy duty protection.
Body Glove for kickstand use.
SUPCASE UNICORN BEETLE for grip and fitted case (best all around). Pics below.
S5 Seidio holster for naked use.

This.
I will be doing liquid screen protection, since I did my homework and read the countless reports of the overlay being prone to scratches. Beyond that, I might do a skin for the back/sides, but the phone seems bulky enough without adding a case.

I have a Poetic Affinity but rarely use it, I love way the phone feels without a case.

I am also using the SUPCASE UNICORN BEETLE and love it! Best all around case, so much so that I don't even look around any more! Easy to hold, great protection - front, back and edges, and slips in and out of my pockets without a lot of hassle!

I just went simple - TGSP and a clear TPU cover - "Fosmon DURA-T Slim TPU Back Cover Case". Paid less than $10 off amazon for both. The phone is sufficiently rugged on its own for my purposes, it was more about keeping it from looking like it went through a war zone.
What I particularly like about TPU covers is that they slide in and out of my pocket easily. nothing to grab my clothes with.
2 co-workers got the S7 active after I did - one had no intention of using a screen protector nor a case, but he's gotten some "microscratches" and is reconsidering. The other has gotten a couple very light scratches while waiting for the TGSP to come in, again from amazon.

Just next day'd " Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Case, Zizo [Bolt Series] " off Amazon (it looked the most rugged and thats what i was looking for) comes in tonight and I will try to write an update if I get a chance.

Got the case in, it's definitely rugged.
Audio jack is right next to the hanger clip which may make it difficult to insert head phones, but I only use blue tooth so that doesn't affect me.
The screen sealed on nice and over all the case fit real snug. I like it as of right now but will try to update once it goes through it's first real impact.... hopefully it does it's job.

Weird, all my buttons are easy to push... Maybe there is some accuracy issues in production? Because all these buttons are easier to push then the Defender series I had on my other phones.
Maybe the rubber button over the power button just needs to be broken in a little. Try taking the case off and pressing the button in and out a few times to make sure it is pressing easily and then placing it back on.
So far I really like this case... its holding up well for me and its really easy to grip... personally I thought I wouldn't like the lanyard that came with it... but now I keep it on at all times and it keeps me from misplacing my phone so often.

X-Level clear TPU case, for the minimalist case user! (Pixel 2 XL)

Just received some of the Clear X-Level TPU case I found and ordered, it is .78mm with clear matte edges all around that feel great in hand.
https://photos.app.goo.gl/YNDccnTmGaIv250z1
The case is similar to the 'MNML' case in that it does not provide a lip for the screen, but it does hug the screens curves to provide a bit more protection in case of accidental drops since it is made of TPU. Dont get me wrong, it is not not a drop proof case at all, but even thin TPU material can absorb more of an impact than hard plastic, and with a good screen protector you're set. The camera is also ever so recessed enough that it wont hit flat surfaces when placed on them. The buttons are also feel great and tactile.
The only thing that may bother some, but doesn't bother me since it isnt that noticeable from afar, is that even though it has the "dot buffer" most clear tpu cases have, it still shows some "water markings" where the case meets the back glass. This is likely because of how thin the case is, and how the back glass curves and melts into the 2 XL's corners. The case will also likely yellow and scratch over time, but that is why I got a small supply lol. I'll be able to swap them out as needed since it will be my daily for a while.
(On a side note) If anyone is interested I would also be wiling to sell some of the extra I have. I know it sounds like an ad for me to sell... but I just feel I got more than I needed.. and it seems these are hard to get in the US for some reason. So if you are just let me know, id do $12 shipped, first class, US. If you want more than one Id do a deal cause of shipping as well! If I have more than one left i want to sell that is lol

It actually does. The L&K is about as thick as the Ringke Bevel. I had the "Pleson" version of it (theyre both the same just rebranded) and that is how thick it felt. The X-Level is .78mm thin.

Have a link for where you got it?

I don't, a buddy bought a small lot from gearbest I think. That's why I have more extras than I need.

If you pay for shipping along with the case lol

eBay got the hook-up: https://www.ebay.com/itm/X-Level-Pu...-Slim-Armor-Clear-Soft-TPU-Cover/222698641914
It took 23 days to reach me in Los Angeles from China.
Just got mine yesterday and I love it. I've been on the hunt for a good clear case to show off the phone. I first had the Spigen Liquid Crystal but it added a bit too much bulk for my liking. This one is just thick enough to protect the rear camera lens when the device is resting face-up. My only complaints are that:
1. there is no lip to protect the screen if I want to set the phone face-down (seems to be common amongst slim cases), and
2. the cut-outs are a bit sharp from being unfinished (though really this is not a big deal for me).
The fingerprint reader cut-out is a bit off-center but at a glance it isn't noticeable for me.

Unfortunately after some time (2 weeks) case has weird bluish discoloration.
I'm assuming this came from holding my phone in pocket (jeans).
I have also Ringke clear case and same story, same discoloration.

been using this for more than half year, same as other tpu case, it will turn yellow as time goes by.
