[Q] Samsung Cases - Vibrant Accessories

Has anyone got one of the cases Samsung is offering on there site?
Apparently I'm too new to post a URL here, but basically if you go to Samsung's website and look at their accessories for the Vibrant you can see them.
Just wondering if they were worth the hefty price tag. Also would be nice to have one that didn't cover the volume and lock buttons like the gel case that tmo sells does.

Nah I think they are too expensive and besides they are gel and will probably stick in your pocket. I went with a rubberized, plastic cover from ebay..

I bought a gel case from Ebay, it fits perfectly well although it said for Galaxy S. Really good deal considering $6 with free shipping.

I have posted this on t-mobile...I have the tmo one but like the blue galaxy s design on the sammy and was looking for a comparo of the two.

Seidio surface case under development.

I just noticed this on Seidio's site
http://www.seidioonline.com/category-s/6971.htm
Looks like it's already on sale, they just don't have a picture of it yet...
Right now I'm rockin' some $5 hard case from ebay. I actually like it alot, but I'll still buy something a bit more heavy duty when it comes out. I'll keep my eye on this case and the otter box. You'd think with the popularity of this phone they'd have be on sale already.
I'll probably pick up the screen protector on that page anyway
Boo
Samsung Galaxy S Dos indeed
Focus on innocel

Its about time. They supply most of the cases to best buy mobile which is why they haven't got any cases for it yet.

I was told by Incipio that they were working on a case as well. They did not say if it would be the NGP, the Feather, or the Silicrylic.

Official Cover for gt-p7100 ???

Anybody know where i can find a case that actually fits like a charm instead of looking like a t-shirt two sizes too big???
I bought an original. SAMSUNG Book Cover Case from eBay. They are a bit pricey but quality is great and it fits like a glove!
Î checked out a lot of cases. The official Samsung one is pricey (watch for fakes... see the other active thread about this case). It is over priced, but I think it's worth it. The fit and finish is very good.
I got a the official cover included when i bought mine of of craigslist. If i didnt, I probably would have bought this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Smart-Slim-Leather-Case-Cover-Sleeve-Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-10-1-GT-P7510-Black-/330662805275. $20 smart cover from ebay

thanks for the help
Just letting you know if you bought from a corporate sprint store it has a one year warranty for replacement for any and all damage. Also I have been looking for a white one with a kickstand as well and have not been able to find one

Casemate POPin wihte...google it.
1. Sorry to hear about your broken case.
2. Rule of thumb: never, ever buy accessories in-store. The markup is ridiculously high. You're just flushing money down the toilet. See the links I've posted below, they charge a whole lot less for cases made essentially by the same people (China), and they're Still making good profit. Of course, if the item is a brand name item like for example Seidio, Case-Mate, Zagg, etc., you'll still get a better price online, just not as steep a discount as comparable items. Your best bets:
Generic, white on white
Generic, white on black
Generic, white on black (different seller)
Like the one Sprint offers, but the white version
Case-Mate Pop! Case
Case-Mate Pop! Case on Amazon
If you plan on buying one of the "Generic" ones above (which also come in other colors), be sure to do the modifications to the case as highlighted on Youtube by nerys71. And if I'm not mistaken, he's also a user on here in the forum. Shout-out to you, bud.

FWIW I'm very happy with my Pop! Case-mate from Amazon
I have a casemate pop as well, and it's a really nice case.

White hybrid case with kickstand
Check this one out I asked my coworker if his site carried them and showed me these. They ship out of Oklahoma City, OK and very quickly. They have lots of cases for our phone.
I personally rock this one from them with my white E4GT.
Clear argyle pattern

I've seen several places online that sell them(this seller had the best price), now they're nowhere to be found. Your best bet currently is to contact the eBay seller and ask if they'll be getting more of that case any time soon. Keep looking on eBay, Amazon, and Google, it might pop-up somewhere if a seller gets a shipment of them.
I'm not much of a fan of that case. When I first got my E4GT, I remember buying the black version of it. It seemed to be more of a tray that your phone popped into than a case. The coverage around the phone wasn't good, especially at the top and bottom of the phone. And the kickstand was extremely hard to open (on the one I got at least) and seemed cheap and couldn't stand the phone up-right. But hey, whatever floats your boat. To each their own.

Thanks! I'll post here if I find them again...

Brick and mortar stores that carry accessories?

I know this should probably go in question and answers but it pertains specifically to accessories so I'm posting it here. Is there anyone nationwide that actually sells cellphone cases and whatnot anymore? Other than Verizon stores small selection (even at flagship stores), I can't seem to find anywhere that actually carries more than one or two cases for this phone or any cell for that matter other than iPhone crap. I love online prices but I've probably wasted almost 100 bucks on cases for this phone because I can't actually see or try them before I buy. I happen to have the GSM with extended battery but ran into the same problems with the non extended GSM I bought for my wife and also when shopping for cases for my dads Verizon model. It is extremely frustrating. Most cases don't fit properly or peel screen protectors when installing or removing. I'm not blaming case makers for this even, but it seems like such a shame that you have to go online and roll the dice for everything nowadays. I buy lots online so I'm not pining for the good old days or anything like that but some stuff you want to see and feel before you buy. Buying most of these online means you waste lots on shipping to return to the point where going through the hassle isn't worth it.
Are any national retailers carrying this phones accessories? I'm willing to pay a bit more to get something that actually works for me.

The only major retailer I can think of, that we have in common, that carries stuff here is Best Buy. They have ~6 case options: Casemate, Otterbox (both versions), Incipio (a couple of versions), +. I can't imagine there being less of a selection at BB in the US.
I've tried a few, and I'm picky, I ended up ordering the Cruzerlite Androidify; very happy with fit, feel, size, etc... The Incipio Feather and Casemate Barely There left me underwhelmed; they can't seem to get the fit right for devices that have curves.
Thanks for the reply. I have 2 cruzer lite cases. One is smoked which I kept, and gave the clear Andy version to my dad with his new lte extended battery. They are nice but tpu cases aren't my favorite. I'm using an sgp Neo hybrid right now and its alright but has a bit of a gap around the camera hole on the extended GSM battery model. I'm looking to find a case that has a little more protection for travel. The case mate tough does not fit for extended and my wife's non extended causes the protector to peel.

Bestbuy / Sprint Accessories stock

does anyone know if bestbuy or sprint has release nexus 5 cases in store? i called both and they said not yet or sold out.
I haven't seen any in my area. Even if they did sell some accessories, it would be like any other Android accessories sold at BestBuy... 4,000 iPhone cases, and 2 Android cases per model.
I wouldn't recommend paying for anything from them before doing a bit of research.
For example; I had a Seidio Active case for my HTC One, I got it online for $20. BestBuy had the same case (without the silicone insert) for $35... same kickstand, same cutouts, the exact same case minus the "SEIDIO" across the back.
I went to best buy and they didn't have anything for the nexus 5. T-Mobile did however. They had a tpu case in black or blue. I tried it, it was good. Just wasn't worth 25$ IMO. They were made by tmobile also. T-Mobile also had the Zagg screen protector for 30$. Way overpriced, but it was a must to protect my screen asap, so I bought it. It also comes with a back film for some reason. I did not apply that. Seems silly. I love the way the back feels. But I also love the way the screen feels naked too bad I need protection.
