I am always horrified when it comes to water and phones; the two should never mingle. At the beach one day, I noticed the clear aqua blue water for miles and wanted to capture this breath-taking view from in the water under but I know I would need an expensive underwater camera to do so. I order this product specifically because of the overwhelming response of positive reviews. My experience yet so far this week has been nothing short of awesome. This is perfect for taking pictures underwater, while snorkeling. I was worried that having the screen would mess up the responsiveness of the touch screen but there were no issues at all. I'm just happy I don't have to bring a separate waterproof camera. Great buy!
Materials: High quality construction, everything feels very durable and has a nice weight without feeling cheap or heavy. I was also happy that there was no strong or strange smell on the product as many of the newer things I buy end up needing to be aired out.
Pro's
- I've submerged my phone in the bathroom sink for a few minutes taking pictures and shooting videos.
- I've showered with it and yet to see a single drop of water inside the case when the iPhone was removed.
- The touch screen in the front and the camera in the back were all accessible while in the case.
Con's
- The only thing i wish it had was access to the top and side buttons. They can still be pressed so it doesn't really bother me much.
- It would be great if it came in a completely clear plastic, to allow for more visual support.
I also have found a deal for this waterproof case at http://deals.kinja.com/, now the price is only 6,99 $ with code: NZG26DKJ
Details: http://www.amazon.com/Universal-Waterproof-Case-Motorola-diagonal/dp/B01CSH93UK/
I had intended to buy a waterproof case JOTO, but when i see this post,i change my mind. A waterproof case Turata at 6.99USD and 7.99USD for JOJO, there is no big difference in terms of functionality. So why not choose one more cheaper. @Glaxaymixc, thanks for sharing this good deals.
Yeah, of course. so i choosed the cheaper one, but it is also very good.

So I'm one of those people who can't just go with a full case because I love holding my phone in its natural naked condition. I know when a phone is new, manufacturing of accessories can take a while, so I patiently waited a few weeks until I started my hunt for a decent sleeve or pouch. Here's the thing: a. I can't stand the belt-clip pouches b. I hate anything that makes my phone feel bulky c. I want it to be aesthetically pleasing. Picky right?
Anyway, after trying the usual Amazon and Ebay, I tried various keywords in Google and FINALLY came across this site that I had never heard of before. They were the only ones to offer a leather case for this phone that actually looked decent and fit my criteria. Free overnight shipping, great excellent customer service when I didn't understand what the holdup was (the rep politely told me it was pre-order season, and they'll have it soon)
This thing fits snug and feels great. The only downside to it is that when I just tried to stuff it in there aggressively to test it out, I noticed that it would start to vibrate a few times and restart. I know that its because of the power button being held down even in the sleep state, so I tried it again, this time with love? (so to speak) Gently placed it in, and every time I did, no issues.
One more thing I will mention is that if you're looking for a case for protection, this isn't the case for you. If you're pretty good about taking care of your phone and just want a nice pouch/sleeve to go with it, this is a great option. Attached are some photos and when I bought it, it was $24.99, I really like it. Below is a link as well, hope this helps anyone who's interested in a similar case.
(I believe they upped it to $29.99 now)

Thanks for the review. Looks nice! I can see in your photo it looks like the leather case is so snug it's kinda almost pressing on the phone's power button. I guess that's why it rebooted the first time you shoved the phone in there. Maybe the leather will stretch a little and loosen up with time and use.
I'm looking for a thin light attractive folding smart case for mt G10.1
Ive narrowed it down to 2 but I am open to others.
some of the things I am looking for..
Hard case back. and the ability to prop it at a slight angle for typing on a desktop or 45 ish degree for watching movies ect.
well protected edges
also the ability to prop it with the tablet upside down so i can use the Dock connecter for USB/Memory cards
the 2 that fit the bill are the Samsung hard case and the Ebay Smart covers.
I really Like the looks of the official Samsung case & the way it shuts securely though I am not sure how the areas it bends at will hold up over time, especially at the price they go for. It also doesn't seem like its very stable when propped up on a desk at a slight angle ( for typing )

The alternative are the Ebay smart covers with a hard back.
not really fond of the color schemes they come in but they arent bad. the price is good, I like the way it props up but I dont know if Ive seen any with a cover that shuts securely. Does anyone know of any ?
I have this one from Amazon and it has held up fine for the last 4 months...
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005PC7VG4/ref=oh_o02_s00_i00_details
I don't know if it meets all your criteria, but the price is good, the quality is very good, and it works.
The ebay one doesn't, I have one and the cover just flaps around but at the price it is what would you expect? The covers magnetic for creating a triangle for upright viewing but doesn't hold itself against the screen when covering it.
Thanks. Mine just showed up today. fits nice and snug. all the cut outs are where needed. I like everything other than it not closing securely, but as you said for the $ its still a good deal.
Im sure I can come up with something. I just need to make sure it looks nice and not slopped on
Got this in the mail a few days ago and decided I'd write a summary review for you guys just in case you're looking to charge your GS3 wirelessly. The kit includes a protective case that doubles as a back up battery for when you're on the go. The color is deep blue that matches the GS3 pretty closely except its done in a matte finish. Its a bit slick but not as slick as the phone is without anything on it so overall its not too bad. Has a button on the back that when pressed once checks the charge of the internal battery and when held down activates the actual recharge so you can juice up whenever you want.
From a protective viewpoint its not the greatest considering some of the sides are exposed as well as some of the top, not sure why they did it that way but its not great for face down protection. I would definitely recommend a screen protector. The charging pad itself uses the Qi standard so you can use it with the new Nexus 4, Windows 8 phones or if you decided to hack the back cover and insert a coil you can use it to recharge as well. They do sell the pad seperately if you don't need the case so thats always good. The pad itself feels great and smooth just like the GS3 does and the finish is nearly identical in color and touch to the capacitive button area of the phone. It only fits one phone at a time and obviously you'd probably like to find one specific spot to keep it so you don't have to lug it around from room to room or between work and home. I did a full review with a ton more details at the link below but that pretty much sums everything up.
Full written review can be found here: http://bit.ly/T4crrk
Check out pics of the kit below:

By the way, just found out Droidax is going to have a massive Black Friday sale with up to 75% off its accessories. Took a screen grab of the details.
I guess the Black Friday sale was extended.....you can buy this guy for $60 right now.
I was searching for appropriate desk stand/dock for my HTC One, but all I found were mostly generic plactic cheap looking docks and stands, which weren't suitable for gorgeous design HTC have come up with. I finally came across desk stand, which would match perfectly with my silver HTC One. I bought it for inexpensive 11.99 € + 4.49 € (shipping cost) on Mobilefun.co.uk .

The stand itself is made out of aluminum. It looks great with HTC One. The second part is special grippy pad, which is made out of plastic and special grippy material. Because of high coefficient of friction the phone is held still and doesn't move an inch even if you shake the stand. Outstanding .
I was a bit worried if the contact area will be big enough because HTC One features slightly curved back. No problem there - phone is held securely . To prevent scratching your desk or whichever surface you want to use your stand on, there is some sort of foam underneath.
Phone can be used when it is held by the stand (portrait or landscape), there is no danger of flippig over . In the future I plan to buy 38 mm NTAG203 NFC chip (I will stick it to the back of the grippy pad ) so the phone will recognize when it is docked - it will change my sound profile, connect to my home wifi network etc.
There are some pictures for better presentation.
If you have some questions feel free to ask .
Looks like an accident waiting to happen. Dog bumps night stand etc.... and down the stand goes along with the ONE.
Looks to topsy, tipsy, with such a small base on stand.
impressive. might pic this us to have next to my computer. would u mind attaching a charging cable so i can see how it looks?

perfect thank you
First, I'm not a current owner of a Z3C but I'm planning to buy it in 3 months because of it's awesome camera, battery and Hi-res audio support
I just started this thread because, since the poor Sony costumer service , and my paranoia about the "hidrofobic coating" getting messed up with salty/chlorine water of the Z3C. I found this:
I'm new so i can't post links but just go to seashell.hk and look in the products tab for the iPhone 5 case housing

Ok ok i Know it's for iPhone 5/5S/5C BUT! when you check what comes in the package, you found this beauty: IMG (2)
So, as you can see comes with a cushions set, so you can customize the position of the phone into the case, and as this image indicates:
It's a huge difference in the camera position, a plus for this case it's that you can download the camera app to properly use the Seashell Case, based on the theory of align the Z3C on the case, I guess the physical buttons will not fit the Seashell´s camera app buttons
Sounds funny why I started the thread, but I´ve seen a lot of users complaining about how their phones died after two or three submersions on sea water, or in the other hand people who it's happy because never have failed after shooting underwater, and of course I don't want to be the unlucky one...
Finally I found this case:
[/ATTACH]
Seems practical since it's a standard case almost look as a daily use case, but I found a problem, and it's that the case have a blurry section of the plastic, and as it's not a firmly shaped plastic that covers the cameraa as the first case I presented you I guess you can't take nice shoots underwater
Just wash it with freshwater once you get out of the pool/sea.
Nothing to worry about, and most of all, nothing worth spending money in.
AFAIK the Z series does not use hydrophobic coating for water proofing, but instead uses a plain old waterproof cabinet where the water never gets to the sensitive parts in te first place. Where have you seen that it used hydrophobic coatings?

They might use them for the speaker, mic, headphone jack and other "holes" that are necessary in the case.
