I wanted to know if anyone had a Samsung Galaxy S4 with the Protective Cover Plus with it?
Because, that's the type of case I'm wanted to get for my HTC One M8.
I believe they're called hybrid cases. Where it's both hard plastic with rubber.
I really liked the Protective Cover Plus cases for the GS4 because it really protected the phone well, without being bulky.
It was sleek, and I felt confident in the case, and that it would definitely protect against any drops.
From my research, it looks like this would be something close to what I'm looking for.

Move it to accessories.

I am looking for a new case for my captivate and seem to be at a stand still. I had the Incipio Edge clear case cause when I got my phone that's all they had at AT&T. I also didn't know the case comes directly from hell! Seriously, don't get this case no matter what. Your phone is better off naked then with the Edge. Anyway, I am wanting something that isn't to expensive, cool looking, and that will protect the phone well. I have looked at the Amzer Silicone color cases but was wondering if anyone had and liked it. Also have looked at Body Glove, but still unsure of what to get. Please whatever case you have drop a response and tell me what it is and if you like it. I would appreciate all the help I can get finding the right case that I know other people have and like. Thanks fellow Captivated Android fans!

I have the Body Glove Silicone case. I like it because it adds nice protection without much extra heft.

+1 It's a very nice case. Doesn't grip my pocket lining like most silicone cases. I usually prefer my phone naked, but after destroying my iphone 3g I figured I'd better be safer lol.
yes Body Glove FTW!!!
btw check the thread 'other source of Body Glove case' for cheaper deal than att.
I'm personally using the Amzer Jelly Case (which actually feels fairly solid) http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Silicone-Skin-Jelly-Case-Black-P88806.htm
available in a ton of colors and I like the elongated-X shape on the back. I'm not sure how it is with the other colors, but the white one shows it as being very opaque when it is partially translucent (I can still read the Galaxy S on the back)
haha yea trust me DO NOT get the stock cases that are 19.99...i hate it lol
I'm using the amzer crystal snap on case its great and for the price it's worth. Great look and feel with out adding much to the phone.

Bodyglove
I just got the Body Glove Mirage case also. I originally bought the OEM Carbon Fiber case directly from Samsung but returned it because it wouldn't snap closed completely. I liked the material because it felt sturdy with a nice grip but was concerned about the noticeable gap from the 2 pieces not closing properly.
The Body Glove is the best one I've seen so far although I'm not that fond of the design on the back. But it protects my phone so it's good until I find something else.
SeidioOnline has the Innocase II Surface that's "Coming Soon" which looks pretty decent. It actually looks similar to the Samsung Carbon Fiber but instead of 2 front and back pieces snapping together, it looks like a top and bottom piece kind of slides onto the phone.
Another one for Body Glove. Nice looking case and it does its job with not alot of bulk. I am looking forward to the Otterbox cases but its doubtful anything will impress me. Just too bulky but I like the protection they offer so we shall see
I am very happy with the zagg invisishield. I like that you really can't see it.
So far I have the Zagg Shield and the Body Glove Skin. But I think I'm going to get the new Body glove snap on case with the kickstand built into the clip. I find myself watching video more and more so the kickstand will come in handy.
And yeah I also made the mistake of getting the Incipio Edge case. That thing was awful. It took me 20 MINUTES to get the case off of the phone. I promptly returned it.
I currently have 3 cases. A clear plastic one from amazon. (pretty cheap and hard to get off, but a decent case for 3.99) then a clear smoke grey silicon jelly case from mr. hit (good case, add grip and looks nice too while adding protection for only 5.99!.) And the amzer luxe argyle tpu case. Which is a really nice case! A bit more pricey but worth every penny (14.99) I think. And I am a freak about protection, so underneath it all I have phantomskinz chromatic white carbon fiber stick on skin (for the days I don't wasn't to have a case on. And a plus is it looks really cool underneath the amzer luxe argyle case (and the clear smoke grey silicon one as well.)
I walked into an at&t store and a lady that worked there was amazed at my phone and showed it off to all of her co-workers.
All in all its really up to you and your taste. But IMO AMZER for the win. (or body glove tpu, as they are both tpu)!

argyle
i have the amzer argyle case (the whitish clear one) bought it from amazon and is like 2$ cheaper than the ones sold from main amzer.com. its great, the galaxy s on the back is very visible and offers protection just as good as the rubber body glove from att. way cheaper too.
I just got the body glove snap on case, with the belt clip. dosnt add alot of bulk to the phone, gives it a nice grip. good fit, all buttons and plugs easy to get to. also, found it on ebay for 17 bucks.
Body Glove Mirage case FTW!

Body Glove - real world test
Luckily, I bought the Body Glove (Mirage) last week because I dropped my phone today from about 4 or 5 feet high and it landed on asphalt. It simply bounced once and stopped. No screen scratches and not even a nick (sp?) on the case. Good stuff!
Thanks to everyone for their recommendations. I ended up going with the Amzer Jelly case in green. Awesome case that really protects my phone. Highly recommend it!

Body Glove all the way!

I definitely recommend the Body Glove Mirage as well. I have had the saladin captivate for only a short time but the moment I put this case on my phone felt thee times more secure in my hand. The back of the mirage case is like no other rubberized case I have ever used. It has a wonderful texture that gives the back of the phone a lot more grip. I highly recommend this case to anyone, get one while they're in stock. Almost every store that carries it in my area has been out of stock.

Does anyone know of a case like the gear4 for iphone?
http://www.amazon.com/Gear4-Iphone-...PM/ref=sr_1_17?ie=UTF8&qid=1306965457&sr=8-17
My friend has one for his iphone and its so thin its hard to tell there even a case on it. It slips in and out of pockets with ease. No bulk at all.
whats the point of having such a thin case? it wont protect it much at all
Im not looking for it to protect it from dropping it, but more from scratches from putting it down on tables and bars and things like that. Right not i have a thin silicone case that will fall off if the wind blows to hard lol.
The case-mate barely there case is your best bet. I have one and I love it. It won't provide much protection from a drop but it's great for tossing the phone onto a table or desk.

Seconded. Not much drop protection, but thin and no scratches. I love mine, but I don't love how it doesn't cover the top and bottom of the phone.
Casemate...there is also a no name brand knockoff of the casemate on amazon. Just search for thunderbolt cases and look for a 1 piece snap on. There are not many to pick from.
I like to have a pouch case for my thunderbolt so I can still easily use my car dock. This one from Sena cases is awesome

The only one that comes close is made by LUXMO and is available on eBay.
I've bought a couple of these. Fits really well, though I don't know how thin it is compared to "gear4". But the mix of clear plastic and black TPU trim feels great.
I bought a smoke black argyl case off eBay for $5.99 and love it. Does not add much bulk at all and makes holdingnthe device slot better and also makes the buttons easier to push aswell.

Bought a case matte barely there, its perfect awesome case! no bluk slips in and out of my pockets with ease. very good choice.
Check out the cheap S-Line cases on eBay. I can't imagine a case getting much thinner than this. Plus, it's only ~$5-10, shipped. If you don't like it (yet to hear anybody not like it), then go get a more expensive one. But really, this is THE case to get if you want something different than the uber-protective cases.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1067656
i got the s case. its pretty sick. decent protection. only thing is sometimes stuff gets in the case and you can see it through the transparent part.
I have the S-Line and Seido Innocase II Surface Case. The S-line is nice for the money, but to me it feels cheap. There's also no real size difference in the 2. The Sedio case is harder to take off at first, but once you get used to it it's super easy. I love my Seido case, but I would be ok if I only had the S-Line.
Also, to me nothing feels better than the naked phone. I'm too afraid to scratch or drop it though.
Here's some picture comparisons
I had one like that for my fascinate. I think vzw is calling it a "fusion" case.
I have the case-mate barley there case. I love the thing. Does exactly what i want it to do, protect the phone from getting scratched and dinged up while in my pocket.

Dude... This case is perfect. Thanks for the heads up!
It added better grip and it feels like a better phone all around.
I recently bought the Body Glove for the Galaxy Nexus (Verizon LTE version)
and it is AWESOME.
i like TPU cases in that it feels like it really keeps my case safe from accidents and falls, but I hate the fact that I feel like I'm often sacrificing look and feel (not a fan of the rubbery, condom-type look & feel).
I was planning on getting a Incipio Sylicrilic case but I recently got an email saying that they were out-of-stock so my search continued.
Well, I decided to give the Body Glove case a try and wow, I'm impressed!
It feel incredible in the hand.
The silver is made of a tough, carbon type shell and the inside has a real nice felt, cushion type material.
Note, it is extremely snug, so extended battery will not fit for this case.
Also, the screen protector will probably come off so I'd suggest something like a case-fit type SP from xoskins if you really want one on.
But I'm so happy with the case and the protection it provides (the raised protective lip around the phone puts my mind to ease) that I think I'll probably just go naked on the screen.
I'm finally done with my search for a nexus case!
I also have a Case-Mate POP! that is on its way, but I'll probably return that unless I get blown away.
Let me know if any of you have questions bout the Body Glove, I'd be happy to answer.
this is the one i got:

Could you post some pics up?
Has anyone found a case that is similar to the Speck Pixelskin HD?
http://www.speckproducts.com/collections/pixelskin
Depends, are you looking for one for the grip, or armour personality traits?
Cruzerlite's Spi-Force case is similar. A bit bulky though. If you don't like that, keep looking, i'm sure i've seen a few knocking about that are very similar to the one you are looking for.
edit.... Alright, I did't have a proper look at the case you wanted. it's only similiar-ish. apologies
Well, I'm looking for a case that added minimal bulk, covers all of the phone including the buttons, and one that doesn't have that cheap glossy look/feel. I ordered a SUP case but the look of the back cover didn't really do it for me. I also tried the Spigen Slim Armor/Ultra Hybrid but those were a bit bulky. Im currently using an Ultra Fit and I love the feel and fit but I miss the protection and coverings for the button. Maybe I'm being too picky haha :laugh:
Anyone recommend any good cases to protect my phone? Currently searching for one but want to know what other people have in mind for them.

been using ballistic case for 3 years, still perfect
case
S-line case are cheap and good; Add a screen protector for shatter proofing purposes and the phone is well protected. Hope that helps. Sincerely, Jahman
Ballistic is a pretty good choice but I've had better handling with the Bodyglove Toughsuit:
http://www.bodyglovemobile.com/cell...laxy-s2/toughsuit-with-holster/?scheme_id=215
Also, it lacks the huge corners that the Ballistic has, making it easier to wrap your hand around it and hell, it comes with a belt holster so it's technically an Otterbox Defender case without the bland look and high price.
