Is there any case similar to the otterbox, only not quite so big?

Yes, except there a little different. the designs are very similar though.
Armor Case is made by chinese manufacturers but they are available in alot more colors than what Otterbox offers.
the holster and design of the case are nearly identical to the Defender case
Here's all the cases (nearly all of them anyway) all on one site.

And here's a bunch more on eBay for cheap

I personally love my black aegis case

I got a Body Glove off Amazon for $12. Very happy with it. Good compromise between bulk and protection. That, and a pack of 5 screen protectors for $6-7.

I used to have a trident case on my EVO smaller than otterbox and still very protective and also had pet screen, it was perfect, I read on another thread, their website just started making them for the thunderbolt. That's what I'm gonna order for my next case.

Looks just like an Otterbox! Wow...ordering now to test the build quality.

Seidio........ awesome cases..... 3 different options, Surface, Active, Convert

When I use a case, I just use the quick snap on Seidio case. Seems to do the trick.

I was thinking about doing the same thing. I looked around for reviews on these, but could not find any. Can you check back when you get it and let us know what you think?? Thanks

Yea, I'll post a pic review of the case. For only 13.57 + shipping for a essentially a Otterbox without the logo on the back is pretty good if you ask me.... Ill be getting it in in about 5 days.

Meh why is it so hard choosing a case..

Is it just me or do you guys also spend AGES looking at case after case?
Basically i dropped my phone S3 on Sunday and cracked the screen, today i got it repaired so i now want a case/cover that protects over the edge front of the phone. But i don't to add massive bulk or for it to look too ugly.
Im thinking of getting the Otterbox commuter or the Ballistic lifestyle smooth, which one you guys think would better suit? or is there an alternate case better?
I know its been asked loads so apologies in advance.

Your not the only one. I'm a flashoholic and a caseoholic lol and very very picky with both.
My favorite sk far is the Incipio NGP. I love it. The lip should be plenty to protect from most drops and it adds very little bulk and gives the phone a really high quality feel. The right balance between slippery for pockets and grip for when your holding it.

My vote goes to the Incipio NGP as well. It is less thick than the GS2 version, but this reduced thickness (0.7mm) makes the phone quite a bit thinner compared to the S2 situation. Feels slick and slides easily out of pockets. Overall one of the best simple TPU cases around, although it is not exactly cheap for just a TPU case.

Naked is best

can't get Incipio NGP over here have to get it sent from the US, i'm going to the US in 2 weeks for 6 weeks so might as well wait till i'm out there as it might take longer than 2 weeks to come.
Do phone shops stock all sorts of cases out there or do you have to order online? would be nice to try before you buy, none of the shops here have anything decent...
These are the only type i've seen in shops here http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/metal-slim-protective-case-for-samsung-galaxy-s3-black-rubber-p35594.htm and that's what ive currently got which did nothing for when mine dropped.

I think most order online. Or at least I do. You'll find a decent selection at most stores but they all have different ones so if you could make it to like an att sprint and Verizon store you should see quite a lot. Online always has a better selection though
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

not due my upgrade yet, still on s2 but been searching for ages for a case to suit my needs when my s3 comes.
the best I think for me so far is the Acase Superlegerra Pro. looks like exactly what I need.

Hard to choose, right? The Paradox of Choice.
I actually bought too many cases (again) because I couldn't decide. Got various TPU cases from ebay, and Cruzerlite, and the popular hard polycarb Rock case, but finally settled on a so-called hybrid case: the Incipio Silicrylic dualpro, as it provides the best protection, grip, and looks, without adding too much bulk.
(Looking forward to Incipio's future cases for the Nexus 7 too)

I was also in search for a case for more than two weeks. At last I settled for Acase Superlegerra Pro. Lot got good reviews and value for money.
Also providing the same level of protection of a Otterbox commuter.

I have looked at reviews and posts (thanks the_Biz) to finally purchase the Case Mate Tough which is presently being delivered by Amazon. My next step is to select a protective screen which I have not decided but it may be the Ultra Crystal for its 4H hardness and compatibility with all cases. Now I am searching for a couple holsters the horizontal and vertical possibly the Reiko and Active holster respectively but I need to review further for quality and compatibility. When all the above is completed I will order the phone and should not worry about cracking the screen like you had experienced

I got the trident ageis and it works pretty well. I always keep my phone in a case but what did I do I took it out to put on a new screen protector and it slipped out of my hand and landed face down. Luckily there was no damage and I put it right back in!

Living in the UK, the main issue I am finding is that you guys in the US get the best cases!!

Yeah I hear ya, but for the moment I'm going with the otterbox commuter case since I have had good experiences with them
Later on next month I'm a customized case mate

I have 5 cases already. The Neo Hybrid in Infinity White, the silver SGP Ultra Thin, the Glacier Otterbox Commuter, a white/ red silicon/hard case from eBay, and a clear case that I got with the phone. And I'm always on the hunt for a good looking case lol

Verizon threw in a free case when I upgraded to the S3 which is brilliant because it covers their logo

Slim I'd say reearth slim takes it over case mate barely there. I have both.
I think the seidio active is awesome although for all the case conversations on xda I never see people talk about it for this phone. Definitely better than the spigen lumi for hybrid cases. Again I have both.
And u can get a kickstand on the active if that's how u roll. I did..
Those are the four have bought so far. Problem? Prob..

I have a Fosmon PC+TPU case and an Otterbox defender. I use my phone all day every day for work and switch my batteries out so I use the Fosmon for everyday work use. It comes off easily and protects the phone from everyday use and is cheap as hell. The clear back is flexible and the grips on the side even more so and hold well so far. You can see through the back if you have white you can see the Samsung S3 logo. The Otterbox is when I finally get the hell out of my house, and it does the job but is a pain in the ass to change batteries compared to the Fosmon. There are plenty of reviews of the Defender so you dont need to hear my 2 cents. I opted to spend more on a beefy case with cheap one for every day, it suites what I need very well and if the Fosmon ats $5.88 lasts 6 months I'll be happy.

[Q] Case recommendation!

Hey guys, my S3 should be here by the end of the week, woooooooooo. But I need some help deciding on a case and was wondering if people who have tried different cases or used just one and can reccomend it could chime in. Basically I want something that will protect the phone, specifically something with a lip so when screen down the screen isn't touching the surface it's on, and basic protection of the phone, I don't drop my phone often, never dropped it on concrete, I'm not very clumsy but I still want something that'll protect my very very expensive phone. The Otterbox defended and similar cases seem like overkill for me, but the clear plastic 2mm case seem like not enough protection, so I was wondering if there was a nice middle ground that wasn't too thick and bulky but would definitely protect the phone. I've got my eye on this one http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s-3-ballistic-sg-maxx-series-case, any other suggestions?
Keep in mind I'm coming from a Desire Z with a thickness of 14.2 mm, the S3 feels like a piece of paper in my hand coming from that, so a little bulk doesn't bother me.

That's a nice deal for the Kraken, I like the Aegis as well, they look really nice.

I know you said the otter box is excessive but they actually have two different styles at sprint. i have the slim otter its not bulky but protects everything. I like alot due to the fact that it protects the charging port as well as the ear phone Jack. I had the s2 before and my charging port always got stuff in it like lent from my pocket or what not. The case is lined with a silicone case inside a hard shell which will stop dirt from getting inside and scratching the device as well as making it more drop resistant. It is deffinatly worth having for 30 dollars.
The otter box i have is actually smaller than the case you have posted and comes with one screen protector as well.
Here is a youtube review of the case if it dosent play just google galaxy s3 otter box commuter caae.

I actually just picked up a commuter case to replace my defender. It's much sleeker and easy to take in and out of the pocket. While it retains the solid feel the defender offered, I have an issue with the grip. Any advice on dealing with its slickness?

The Otterbox doesn't look too bad, but for the price of $32.50 it seems kinda..... Boring. Some of the other cases look really cool.

Hands down the best case I've ever purchased. Looks amazing in all colors, very good protection, not too bulky, and came without any flaws. It turns heads while providing the protection I need.

Urban Armor Gear. Love mine.

+1 for Otterbox Defender. Its not anywhere near as bulky as I thought it was going to be and I really like how it provides me with solid, square edges so I can prop it up on my display screen in my car dash very easily and it stays securly in place (for the most part).

Yes! This!!! I have the exact same case its amazing! Like nothing can destroy this phone with this case!

I used a SGP Neo Hybrid since more than one year but a few month ago the polycarbonat frame is broken so I buy this one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Book-Wallet...-Samsung-Galaxy-S3-III-GT-i9300-/271210987593
And I'm total happy with this Case since 2 month!

After trying about 10 cases of varying materials , shapes and sizes I chose the fake Neo Hybrid case since the origional doesn't seem to be available anymore. Build quality is quite good for under 10 bucks and if it breaks itll be cheap to buy another.

UAG is the best!! Very good quality and build. Using it with a 0,4 mm glass screen protector. Beats the plastic ones by a 1000 miles.

+1 on the bodyglove shocksuit!! The shizz.

Spigen neo hybrid now, had an Otterbox commuter for the last year. Like them both but I prefer the Spigen

Got to agree body glove is the best. Good price and doesn't make the phone to big and bulky.

Oh my god yes. the UAG case is really nice. The one thing I do dislike is that the lettering on the back came off within the first week of having it. Still recommend for durability. Btw those who want the case, Slate is a lot closer to the natural GS3 blue than you think!

most of the fake UAG case sell cheap and have letters failling off or just painted on it not mentioning the quality is not the same at all.
im not saying you brought fake one but just sharing some experiences.
also my fav case is indeed a UAG one (Scout/black) i got it from Ebay for 24$ port inclusive from a Belgian seller, i did some investigation because even if its only 10 bucks less than the official store its still suspicious, i did sent some detailed pics of the case and box info/bar code and according to the customer service : it's a original one, nonetheless i spared 10$ on it but i didnt got custom taxes.

Wow, I didn't know they sold many knockoffs. Mine was direct from Amazon through UAG. I think I just have oily skin which made it easier to reduce the sticky solution for the lettering. Thanks for letting me know of that! I might get another just to have more color selection

Otterbox Armour is a close second, but the lifeproof is more practical for everyday use, as it's more pocketable and wireless charging works through it.

exactly what make a UAG better than a Otterbox, Otter are nice but too bulky.
funny experience: i had 2 S3 dropped from my balcony (around 3meter)1 from a friend with a Otterbox defender and mine with the UAG without screen protector both hit the concrete on the lower edge (where the soft bumper is) result : mine nothing the other had a little (very small) crack on the bottom of the screen xD
sorry for the blurry quality xD

That life proof looks really solid but still just a bit too bulky for me. I might get something a bit thicker than my UAG, but first I need a proper full screen protector. I've gone through like 5 because they are dammed hard to apply.

Nexus 5 Otterbox Defender.

I have asked the Otterbox customer service team about a defender case for our phone. They said they would consider making a defender case if i got 10,000 signatures on a petitiion. I am creating a petition later today. Anybody Interested?
PETITION
PROOF

This really would have been good to start back in November or December, but I'm sure you can get a lot of votes. I'll vote if I can see some proof of where they've said this. Not that I am calling you a liar; I just have only seen them respond with "no plans at this time."

There isn't any point, Otterbox hates Nexus phone devices. They never ever make any Nexus phone cases, their last one was the Galaxy Nexus.
Why beg a company to make a case for your phone if they don't want to make a phone case for a flagship Google device? Its obvious that they don't take the Nexus brand very serious. If they don't want to make a case, take your business elsewhere to another company.

If a Otterbox case is that important to you then maybe you should re consider on what phone to get based on what cases Otterbox produces for.
There are actually a good number of cases that can serve as alternatives and they actually make a case for a phone without begging them to do so. At this rate, if you want a Otterbox that much you might as well send Otterbox a resume for their marketing department because thats exactly what they're making you do by offering them to get 10K petitions. The phone has been out over 3 months and they don't have ANY plans to make a case for this phone. It doesn't take many resources to set up a prototype for the Nexus 5. Its more or less molding it to fit the size. I'm not being rough with you but thats just the truth.

I can definitely say that if you're looking for an Otterbox quality case, go with the Trident. An Otterbox is not going to protect more than that and you're probably going to pay more if they end up making one. The Slim Armor is also very good if you don't want to go with too thick of a case. I have both but stick with the Slim Armor as it will protect it from most drops and bumps. And since I'm not engaging in urban warfare or playing baseball with my phone as the ball I don't feel I need to have such a bulky case to protect my phone. So to the OP, believe me, you're better off not petitioning Otterbox and just going with a case that is readily available. For $34.95 through Trident AND you get multiple colors to choose from, you can't beat that. Otterbox will be at least $40-$45 and all you get is black.
Edit: And Otterbox saying they'll consider it doesn't give you a guarantee that they will, even if you get 30,000 signatures. It's all in what it will cost them in development, tooling up to manufacture it, and if there is enough of a demand that it makes it worth it.

If you're looking for one with a beltclip, I would buy the Zerolemon case when it comes back in stock. Even if you don't use the battery pack that comes with it, it's a rugged case with a belt clip. Check out the review on it in this forum a couple threads down and look at the pictures. For $39, it's a great deal.

You could look at the Ballistic Tough Jacket Maxx... Good reviews and a belt clip included.

Have that now. Already had the silicone replaced in 2 weeks. Stretched out beyond the edges of the phone.

Good to know...I believe XDAers more than Amazon reviewers.

^ Pretty much.
The other options for our device aren't too shabby either.
Spigen, speck, Google, lg, tech21, ringke, supcase, quicksand, trident, driztronic, cruzerlite.... Many top brands have us covered.

Otterbox would be nice, but I don't think its good to beg a company to make a case. If they don't want to, then I don't think they will no matter what they say.

Does anyone know which cases have integrated screen protectors for the Nexus 5? I am using an i-blason case with one right now and its pretty good, and I've also seen Ballistic's case with one with mixed reviews. So if there are any others, would love to hear about them.

They may hate them but there IS NO OTHER case with otterbox quality. Acase nor ballistic or any other have sufficed.

Are you kidding me? Ballistic cases are awesome. Trident makes great cases too.

The ballistic case silicone stretched way out. Don't use trident as their c/s is horrendous.

I have owned ballistic cases for multiple devices, and the silicone has never stretched out at all. Maybe you are not attaching the hard poly carbonate shell correctly, and the incorrect fit is stretching it?

I've never had a problem either. I got 2 yrs out of my last one, and probably could have used it indefinitely. I guess some people are just good at abusing their stuff.

I don't plan on contacting Trident's CS dept., as their case is built rock solid and won't have any need to contact them.

Had the exact opposite with my old phone (HTC One S), I had an Otterbox commuter and the silicon part just got stretched out to the point that the phone jiggled around in it and the little covers for the ports/plugs/jacks broke off. Replaced it with the Ballistic SG and it's still a great fit a year and a half later.

Had a similar experience with the silicone on my commuter (galaxy nexus). It stretched to the point where it didn't protect the phone, cracking my screen when it dropped from waist height.
Their silicon was tougher in the sgs3 commuter, but I didn't have a good experience with otter box.
