While searching ebay, I came across an interesting leather cover for the SGS2. It's a little costly but I like that it's sleek yet protects the phone from scratches. Just can't imagine how the thing stays on!
Folio simple leather case cover
Look good. I think they replace your battery cover, that's the only way they could stay on.
Right, that makes sense! Thanks!
Let us know how it goes. looks gd.
I'm still trying to do some research about which cover to get, and came across the Korean page.
Looks like the folio has some antibacterial properties!
I might "break the bank" *as regards the price for phone covers, and purchase one of these, can anyone give a review assuming someone has already purchased one of these.:
Quite like the look of it and the "idea" of it replacing the battery cover.
Shame I already bought a Zenus cover for mine :/
Let us know if you get it, would be good to know if it works well.
Haven't bought the case yet. I read that it has antibacterial properties, which made me re-think about it.
BTW, I came across another cool Korean leather case:

I'm looking for light-weight leather cases but am not sure which one to get at the moment! Any thoughts about this?
Does anyone know what the Samsung Bumper Case look like, any links/sites which actually shows an image?
All the sites which have a pre-order of it have no image.
thanks
forget the bumper case. i want to know what case Samsung had when they were concealing the phone for internal testing. i really liked that case.:
http://cdn-static.cnet.co.uk/i/c/blg/cat/mobiles/galaxy-s3-dummy-case.jpg
I wondered if these clear ones from the launch are the official bumper cases.
There is supposed to be one official case that waterproofs the phone. That could be a good alternative to using a generic water proof pouch.

Those aren't bumper cases though. A bumper case just goes along the outside edge. Also the sites selling them describe them as "Chrome Blue" & "Ceramic White".
Where can we find these 2 clear looking cases posted in the picture above???
You may find them here:
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/genuine-samsung-s3-slim-case-white-efc-1g6swec-twin-pack-p35227.htm
amazon has them as well, i have actually ordered them, they come as a pair and i like the fact that they are slim. I dont want the extra bulk that much.
they are supposed to be delivered to me until the 31st of May, so i can take some photos of them.

Actually there may be a separate bumper case. The MobileFun website has a page specifically for S3 bumper cases. I hope its not an error, I wouldn't mind having an extra type of case to choose from.

aparently these are delayed as well...
I really don't understand why more cases don't just replace the backplate.
I was really hoping it was actually a bumper.

Those are actually delayed. Expecting them around 11/6. Im on tapatalk now and i cannot find the link to paste. Its easy though
sent with SGS3
These aren't "official" but they're bumper cases.
Take note that they're for "preorder" at the moment though, ship the 14th I think.

Keep in mind that many of these posts are eBay and may expire or get re-listed. The same items may be available from Amazon or other sources. Happy searching!
During your personal search for accessories, it may be helpful to search for either i9295 or i537. Some accessories are listed only as one or the other.
Keep in mind that some of these eBay listings will eventually end. The seller may relist them or as with most eBay cases you can probably find something similar if not the same from a different seller on eBay or Amazon

I don't think that Chinese case is a wise choice for the Active.
I'm just talking out my ass here but I don't think the Active has the ability to do the "S-View" thing because of the display technology.
That TPU looks hot though and I'll probably buy that one

Despite the hype and marketing. If you read the description it is not actually shock proof. Therefore, to answer your question, you would put a case on "this" phone for the same reason(s) you would put a case on any phone. hth

Thanks for posting. I plan on putting a screen protector on. I don't know how water may effect it, but I doing anything different with this phone than any other phone. I'm mainly getting this for the dust/dirt that sometimes gets on it from my gear. And for the rare possibility of water.

Hard to say what is a best since it could be a matter of personal preference, but you can get a lot of choices here: http://www.tvc-mall.com/search?cid=&q=note+3+wallet

Taking a shot with this. Exactly the type and style I was looking for. Almost abnormally high number of 5 star reviews on Amazon but looks legit:
Black Panther Leather Wallet Case
Black Leather Wallet Case
Ordered the Black Panther directly through their website, followed on Twitter for 10% discount, ends up $9 cheaper than Amazon
Fliptroniks direct link
No mention of it (or the company) through a search here at xda so taking a chance. I'll return and give my opinion once I get it.
Spigeon Slim Armor S-view
Although I usually love Spigeon cases, the Slim Armor S-View model is sub-par IMO. The hinge for the front cover is held together by two small plastic pegs, which after less than a month of opening and closing it has caused the plastic part that holds the pegs in, to break off and the hinge will not stay on and close. If you just love the case or want the S-View function, than I would eith suggest the official Samsung S-View case and buy the magnetic clips to keep it closed, or get a knock-off case. I remember aliexpress.com having a bunch of knock-off stuff for cheap, but keep in mind it is still knock-off/clones.
Wallet case? I don't know, probably Spigen has some nice cases. I have one wallet case and is from Design Skin. I like it, but don't how others would think about it.
I just want to say i don't like my Note 3.
I am looking for a TPU *BUMPER ONLY* case for the OPO and can't find one anywhere.
All I can find are

- Aluminum bumpers (tried one of these, kills signal too much)

I've checked all over ebay & amazon, but couldn't find any

Love bumpers with screen protectors and either skins or replacement backings. Minimalistic approach to protection...Keeps it thin and protects!
