I looking at leather flip cases...but i want one that flips up...it jus seems more natural and convenient. Is there a reason why every flip case i have searches through online like 50...on ebay and amazon all flip down?
Anyone find a flip up?
or one without that buckle belt.....seems half pointless...its not going to open by itself on a table or in your pocket without it. And when/if you drop it 90% you would of unfastened it already.
And where about on the phone is the compass located...and where do these flip covers normally have the magnet...on the buckle bit on the bit the buckle attaches to...worrying about the compass
I have seen some but dont remember where. They flip down because otherwise they will cover the camera..

nice point
terrapin case at amazon is quite a nice case . it has a double crease that let you fold right back as to not cover camera. and less than a tenner. this was my first case for my sgs2 but decided to go for screen protector and case mate tough as found the flip a bit annoying due to the size. now looking for an upgrade for the casemate tough now as i keep getting echos. as soon as i take the case of it stops? bit strange. but i am using the terrapin again until i find another.
I've got a Tuff-Luv from Amazon.

It's a nice cases, it does the job pretty nicely, and the phone is really well protected against shocks. Have a look on a youtube demonstration .... It's a nice stunt party ;-)

Are the close clips magnetic? Always weary of magnetic cases, while some people say they're safe, I'm not willing to proove them right...

Nope, those clip are not magnetic. It's mechanic. I don't know the term in english. (in french, it is "bouton pression") google translation says "snap"...
Hope it helps
If you have a flip case does that mean i shouldn't bother with a screen protector...i'm sure the gorilla glass will take care of the rest
Flipups will be found in your local market phone traders stall .

What about the headphone jack??
If the case flips up and you have a headphone connected, don't you have to disconnect the headphone before you flip up the case!?
Just my five cents!

Does anyone have any recommendations for a case. I've has 2 Krusell cases, I like them, but they keep cracking. I also had the official one which I didn't really like - felt cheap.
Has anyone any recommendations? I'm thinking of the NGP Semi-Rigid Soft Shell Case. I want to still maintain the thin feel of the phone.

case-mate barerly there?
If I was you, I would go for the 's line' case from Ebay.
Why? It's cheap, very good build quality, protects the screen also and the most important for feature, grip at both sides.

Mine is starting to crack, fell out my hoodie pocket today about 1ft drop and the case has a crack on it. Also has another crack from when I dropped it at a house party but its barely noticeable.
case mate though, very, very good, i love it, and makes my mind rest, if my phone falls to the ground i will survive

I was looking at the case mates but they seem to be made of the same material as the Krusell, which cracked twice on me, also the fact that the camera cutout isn't entirely flush would be a bugbear for me.
Went into CPW at lunch to have a look, but they only had 2 cases! Hard to buy these things blind online.

Normally I don't like cases on my phones, but I had to take one also for work so my phone won't get scratched. But because I like the s line so much, I keep it on whole the time

I'm amazed with all the positive comments for such a cheap case. Ordered one on eBay, might still keep an eye out for another though.
Having said that the phone feels so much better without a cover.

Hi guys,
Just wondering if any of you using a Rock Quicksand case with your S3 have found a leather pouch that the duo will fit in?
I was thinking of buying the official case and hoping it will stretch, but any advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers

I bought one of these to try > http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007X2IOQA/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
Simply because the reviewer said it was loose, it is. Probably enough to get the phone+Rock on with a bit of work. Accepts mine no problem with a flip cover, which has a wider case back and the front flap. Not bad quality either.
Thanks for the reply! In the end, I took a chance and ordered the genuine Samsung Galaxy Note pouch which fits the combo perfectly.
Absolutely delighted.

You guys mind taking some shots of the S3 in note's pouch? I wanna see how snugly it fits into the pouch, and how easy it will be to take out.
I'm using the rock quicksand as well and I have been looking for comfort fit neoprene pouch, nothing skin tight.
Thanks!
Here you go!
The phone fits firmly in the note case but is also extremely easy to remove - if you squeeze the edges of the pouch together, the phone slips out freely.
Couldn't ask for more!

Nice! but it looks like it's made of leather (or faux leather). what's the inside like? same material? suede? I'm just paranoid of how it may scratch my screen. hence I've been looking for neoprene materials all these while. my nillkin protector is dry application hence doesn't cover everything. you reckon it'll be safe from scratches?
Looks like they don't have it locally though. Gonna need to order online....

The inside is a suede type material so shouldn't scratch the phone.

Youre worried about the 2 millimeter space around the screen protector that is of no actual use anyway? (which is also made of gorilla glass 2 and I have to assume it can withstand some soft suede)
Does the speaker hole line up?

I think I'm going to get the Krussell Luna 4XL pouch. I already have a KaysCase and I think the 3XL pouch would fit my phone only but with the case on it I think the 4XL would be a better fit.
http://www.amazon.com/Krusell-Premium-Leather-Samsung-SmartPhones/dp/B006VAMZLA/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1341019454&sr=1-1&keywords=krusell+luna+4xl
Hi,
any experience with the Luna 4XL yet? Got a Quicksand merely out of curiosity and I am so much impressed of the haptics it adds, don't want to return it. Still, more important to me is a pouch that protects the phone, especially the screen when it's in my pocket, laptop case, backpack, etc.
I hab pretty good experiences, case-wise with the Noreve on my HD2, but the S3 with the Quicksand so far did not fit into any of the pouches I tried. Placed an order for the Krusell, even though the Quicksand is thicker than the specs for the Luna are (10.8 vs 10 mm). We'll see how it fits...

I tried 2 gel cases the mini suit and amzers both found on Amazon.com
The mini suit doesn't have a gel feel, and lacks protection. Here's the link for mini suit..
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=Amzer+note+10.1
Amzers case has a very jelly feel, and is also much thicker. The price is well worth the extra grip and protection. Which is my favorite thing about the case. It helps you grip the enormous 10in display comfortably without fear of slippage.
http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-AMZ9466...id=1359557273&sr=8-1&keywords=Amzer+note+10.1
All in all if you want the cheapest case you can get to prevent back scratches go with mini suit. If you actually want a grippy protective gel case go with the Amzer. Both cases come in many colors, and at only $20 for the amzer, and $10 for the mini suit($5 shipping included) they are both a steal!
Please remember to thank post if you found it helpful!
Been thinking about getting amzer case, but have read a few reviews that say the silicon doesn't sit flush with the tablet. And that's, my one concern, tell us about it in y your opinion, and photos would be great thanks

By flush you are referring to the way the speakers/headphone input are or aren't exposed?
Theway the rubber sits on the device or are there gaps on the bezel or around ports and or soeaker grills

Hey man, So I was about to post pics for you but my phone kinda crapped out. Sent it into samsung so it should be back in the next 2 weeks. I will try to borrow my GF's GS3 to take some pictures later.. Unfortunately I am using a basic Huawei Android ATT Go phone in the mean time. No flash ****ty 3MP camera wouldn't really show you what you want to see.
I will be honest though, my thoughts about the amzer case where exactly that it was an amazingly snug and good fit. All the speakers/mics/camera/everything is all flush.
I have the amzer. It is thick and heavy. Loads of protection though. It covers all the silver except for speaker grills. There is a YouTube clip I think.
The amzer is definitely thick and good on protection.
Good
agreed

Im not sure if your aware of the newer types of polymers used for gel cases nowadays. They are more dust resistent. In short I dont have a huge dust issue when using the amzer gel case. It stays fairly clean and if it attracts an occasional cat or dog hair theyre not statically glued to the case! Hope this helps!
I have the mini suit and it's great. Fits snugly and all the holes match up. I have a handmade leather case for my note and the mini suit is good to use when I'm walking around with it.
Hi guys.
I work on sites that can get very dusty and was after a case that would protect my phone from dust getting into my phone.
There's a lot of rugged cases that protect the ports/plugs with silicon plugs, but nothing that will also protect the 2 front speakers from dust.
At one stage I was looking at waterproof cases like the Seidio OBEX, Lifeproof, Otterbox Armor, but it doesn't look like these companies will be making these cases for the HTC ONE .
Does anyone know of any case that I could use to protect my ports/plugs/speakers (all) from dust?
ps. I don't want to use those waterproof bag cases.

The otterbox defender and Trident Kraken both have speaker cutouts in their inbuilt screen protector.
I also don't care how bulky/fat/pregnant it looks as I'll only be using it at work.

Some of them do some of them don't. I see iPhone, android phones aswell as windows phones, blackberrys, palm, flip phones, sliders and bt headsets on construction sites all the time. People use what they got n what they want.
(edited to not sound like a d**k) XD
Sorry op. Ive got no clue. I don't really use cases. Something like a life proof case for the One would be what your looking for, but I think they only make cases for iPhones.
Get a phone sock or a little zip case with belt loop on it. You have to think differently if you want your phone to stay clean and safe. I work on site and all you can really do is keep it clean and safe. Another tip is put it in an old pair of cut down tights or stockings what woman wear and then put your case on the phone to help keep dust out.

Honestly, when i know i will be in a dusty or wet environment, i usually just put my phone in a ziploc bag. Your screen taps are still recognized and people can still hear your voice through it.
Yeah I'm currently using a ziplock bag.
It's not ideal, but it definitely works a treat.
