I just ordered one. However, I wanted to see if anyone had one already and what they thought about it.
Got the case in 2 days.

I bought one from Amazon and it's "okay" to say the least i much prefer the one i got directly from T-mobile. but they are nice. but i work in the Automotive industry so i need something that i can put down on a tool box or a stainless steel top and not worry about it scratching up my battery door.
i guess it's like Epik for Blackberries.

I have the hard plastic case with the kickstand made on the back. I know they are expensive but i have a 14mth old daughter and it helps to keep her quite when we go out. put on Sponge Bob or similar put the phone out of reach and she is a quite as a church mouse.
i'm gonna pop for it. at 5 bucks flat its probably the best deal for the TPU style cases. since TPU i think requires like 4 dollar shipping so it comes out to like around 10 bucks. and i do like the 2 tone flat with gloss cause the flat parts are for grip.
This case is a must order...the pictures do not give it justice..i will post video in a little bit...

I just ordered one, what's your opinion on it?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
so far its pretty good. the styling is pretty god and the sides are dimpled gripping. the rear is flat black which makes it have a contrasted look with the flat and gloss. the power button is a bit hard to press but its not too ridiculous. though the one thing is normally when you plugged in your usb to charge you always got a noticeable click like it was fully setting into place. now because of the case you kinda have to jam it into the opening so it stays cause the case adds about 1-2 mm of fatness. most likely its cause of the size of the usb head. other than that i'm very pleased. comes from Pasadena, CA so if your in socal it'll come to you with-in a day. and for 5.10$ shipped you cant really get anything better.

I ordered from Amazon this gel case and I received it today.
It looks and feels really nice, smooth and easy to pull out of your pocket, not like some silicon cases. Great fit, except the power button, I had to cut a little part but it is usable in it`s unmodified way.
More pics on my blog, my internet is acting up now, maybe I`ll upload them here later on.
Sorry to thread-jack, but I have a similar protective case for my wildfire and I find the open spaces a magnet for dust and such. How can i block dust from entering these places? I thought of cutting some small foam into the shape of the connector, and just pull it out when I need to charge.
Yeah, that foam stuff is a good ideea. I don`t think there is any other way to protect from dust, the only problem is that the foam plugs may fall off during the day so you must keep extras.
LoL! XD
Got the same case
Realy like it... gives the phone great grip, protects it... love it
Welcome to the club. Where did you get it from?
bought it in my country (Israel FTW) at some phone accessories shop
Wow. I'm using the exact same too. It's better than most silicon case.

Good for you! But what are you doing with 5 cases? (besides selling them)
Nobody likes Neoprene pouch cases? I personally find them to be awesome shock absorbers and scratch protectors, while also acting as grip enhancers. The only downside is that you have to take out the phone to use it.

LOL this case is really popular. I got mine from play.com blue makes the phone more stylish and the HTC logo stand out especially under lighting and sun.
And the thickness is just enough to keep the camera lense from scratches too when you lay the phone down.
There's nothing stopping you to pop out the phone to clean out the dust once I'm a while its so easy to pop it out and insert back in.

Jus got the Amzer silicon case for wildfire from ebay....its awesome ...gave the personality to the phone...love it..
I thought I'd share this. The Case-Mate Pop! is a perfect fit. Phone is snug and feels really good to the touch. It's a little steep price-wise but cheaper if you break your phone.
UPDATE: Just 3 days later.... prolly gonna wait another week or so before returning.
Nice case. No digging the orange peel effect of the screen protector.
i liked mine the first week i got it too, now the silicon is starting to look all messed up.

File a RMA request, they will let you return it for a refund (I did). Same issue as you, the rubber on it started looking pretty ratty, and for the price, it definitely shouldn't have. Got hairline cracks all around the corners, and the damn power button press-problem as well.
Also, there's another thread about this case here...

Everytime someone posts a pic of this stupid case I have to fight the impulse demons.
If I had taken a picture of what the rubber around the front of the phone looks like after a few weeks, you'd not have to anymore..
I liked the look of the case, but I'm not spending 45 bucks on a case that looks like crap after a few weeks, what would it look like after a few months??

Looks nice and fits snuggly on the phone. I just wish they used a better quality rubber. Posted an a couple pictures in post 1
There were no questions asked when I asked for an rma. I shipped it to them, and they received it on the same day they released the Barely There. I asked if I could get one of those in place of a refund, but haven't heard back yet...
here are some ****ty pictures of mine
My flaws were in the EXACT same places, even the big chunk that came out at the volume buttons. It's got to be something in the molding process, or it wouldn't have that big flaw there at the volume button. I noticed that on the 2nd day after I got it, and it just got worse as time went on.
Just got notification that they are sending me the barely there in place of a refund (at my request). Hopefully it'll fit the bill..
I did a review. I have had it for a few days now and I am beginning to see the rubber slide off.

Ballistic SG Case for T-Mobile
I just saw it on eBay and it looks like a great case for protection.
Here is the company's site with the standard S2. They haven't added our phones yet to their site.
http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s2-ballistic-shell-gel-sg-series-case
Just recieved it today. I like the way it looks but it has a couple of drawbacks.
Pros:
1) Pushing the volume or power button is the best I have seen yet for the T-Mobile GS2 cases. Very fluid just like there isnt a case and the buttons make the natural noise that they make just like not using a case.
2) Seems to be the best protection I have seen for the GS2. I think it will handle a drop very easily.
3) I dont have a screen protector but the way this is designed I dont see how this case would cause any issues like the D30 cases do due to a tight fit. Its somewhat loose and should not cause the corners of a screen protector to lift up.
4) Has a great feel to it and adds some weight to the phone.
5) Protects the back camera perfectly.
6) It does add some thickness to the phone but this is because the phone is extra protected. I would say it is about 1.5x to 1.75x as thick as the phone without a case on it.
Cons:
1) The first layer is rubber and due to this fact it has a few issues.
2) Collects lint easily from your pocket.
3) Can be difficult at times to put in and out of your pocket due to the rubber.
By far though this is the best case I have had for a phone. I own a couple of TPU cases for the T-Mobile GS2 and a D30. It makes the D30 look like junk even though the D30 is a great basic case.It has some drawbacks but the pros outweigh the cons. I definitively recommend this case to anyone that wants the ultimate protection for their phone and doesnt mind cleaning the lint off everyonce in a while. If you like my review please give me a thanks.
just saw one too. didnt kno that they started to make them yet. their a little bulky for my line of work. and since im a student im not really in the situations where is need THAT Much protection....but do a review if you get one.
I ordered one. As soon as it comes in I will post pics.

I have to say yes... I'll take measurement tmrw but the corners are thicker than all of it. Its still not bad. Fits in my pocket n like how it feels in my hand ... I like the texture of back compared to the d3o.
To be fair, the rubber corners will pick up lint just like vibrant otter box. This thing is maximum protection...

Thanks, got one on order. This will be my 4th and hopefully final case for this phone, I am a fan of otterbox so I think I will like it. I started with the black bodyglove from tmobile, not a bad case but a pain in the ass to take of so I got one of the clear TPU cases from ebay and its a great case. And then the D30 came out so I exchanged the bodyglove for it, had to take it back because it fit like crap, the next one fit 95% better but is still uneven around the edges and for a $25.00 piece of rubber it should be perfect like the $7.00 one from ebay.
The first D30 that I got was from T-Mobile. That one fit perfectly, just didn't like the way how the button press felt. So then I also got a TPU case from eBay. Next thing T-Mobile gave out the cases so I picked it up, returned the original one I bought at T-Mobile store, but then the one I got from T-Mobile online, it fit 95% and was bubbling up my Realook. I was hoping for a Seidio case to come first but since I've heard good things about Ballistic case, I gave it a shot. Waiting for it to come in the mail now.

Oh yeah, that was the other thing, the buttons. Volume not too bad, power button was a PITA on the D30.
Got the case today and its awesome.
Not sure why I have yet to see anyone mention these on here, but on a whim I went to their site and saw they are selling 3 styles for our phone now. Back when I had my iphones (3gs and 4) these cases were always my favorite. Once I got my GSII, I didn't see them releasing anything for it and didn't like many of the other cases out there, so I just went commando.
I just ordered the black candy shell (for my white GS3) and will also be checking back to see if any other colors are released. I always felt they offered a great amount of protection (kept my iphone 4 safe MULTIPLE times from really bad drops) and not TOO much bulk (IE- not an otterbox).
Pixelskin HD (had this on my ip4 first, probably the most well constructed tpu style case out there)

http://www.speckproducts.com/fabshell-for-samsung-galaxy-s3.html
Candyshell (cannot wait to get mine)
http://www.speckproducts.com/candyshell-for-samsung-galaxy-s3.html
Once I get mine, I will post up a mini review. But judging from my past experience with them, I know I will love it.
Anyone else get them yet?
I'm planning on getting one of these (Candyshell), however, it appears they color I want isn't in stock yet. (Dark Grey). Apparently some AT&T stores have them in stock though.
I'm on Verizon, but may need to take a trip into AT&T and pick one up.
Somebody on Android Central posted pics of theirs and it is gorgeous. Looks perfect with the SG3.
My wife has the white/pink candyshell one on her Atrix 2 and when i took it off she ad some rusty looking stains on the corners of her phone.
I bought a grey Speck Candyshell from my local AT&T store for $35 while I waited for the cheaper slimmer cases I had ordered. It was a great fit, almost a tad too tight for my liking. But it was very solid, offered nice protection for the back/sides/rim-raised for the screen.
I just returned it as my other cases came, IMO the fit was a little too tight for me, and it added just a bit too much bulk for me, I like my cases barely there. Though I'm sure many will love it, this was just my feeling on it.

Perhaps makeup from her purse? I can't see any case causing something like that.
as the case...with any case (sorry, that just sounded weird), you should remove them from time to time and clean the phone still. Most people I know do not do this and then get all mad when there is dirt scratching the back of the phone. Completely ignoring the fact the case has been on for over a year.

I dont know possibly, she doesnt care about it so it doesnt bother me much. Thanks for the heads up though.
The Candyshell looks awesome, but does anyone know what the finish is like? I need something with a little bit of rubbery grip bcause this phone just wants to slide right out of my hands.

My wife's candyshell case doesn't feel rubbery/grippy, however it doesn't ever seem to slip out of her hands either.

Good point!
I had that happen with my DINC. Scratches from dirt and dust getting in. Was hoping that the Speck wouldn't do that as it's more enclosed and lined, but still..... I think I'll remember to do that from time to time.

I just looked at one at a store and the finish was too smooth for me. I need something with a little more grip. My search continues...
Just ordered the black/dark grey candyshell. All colors of the candyshell are available on their site with free shipping right now.
I ordered one of the candy shells yesterday. It should be here tomorrow. They also said that if enough people hit the feedback button link on the bottom of their main site and request the SmartFlex Card for the gs3, they will make it.
Smartflex for iPhone 4s link
I've already done the feedback so hopefully others will too.
Anyone have pics of their device with the Candyshell on?

It's the soot/black in the pics above.....picked it up at the ATT store last week. Although a little off topic i also ordered the cruzer lite TPU clear case for $9 off [email protected] Bottomline, you get what you pay for in cases.....don't expect a $35 case for $9. The speck case is a quality product while i feel the other is not.
Any tip on how to remove spigen slim armor from nexus 5?

I usually keep the two pieces together, just take it off starting from one of the sides.

Is that how you put it on too, keep the pieces together? I should be getting mine today.

Yeah, it's easier that way.

Thanks man, can't wait to give it a go. I'm actually excited to get this case. Fedex can't get here fast enough.

No problem. The only issue I've been having with it is that it tends to collect dust on the phone. Along the edges and inside the cutouts. Let me know if you experience the same issue.

I kinda like keeping my phone clean so I wouldn't let dust collect anyways but we'll see what happens. For some reason I don't think it's getting delivered today even though it says it's in transit.
I bought several cases so far and always end up going back to Slim Armor. It adds a bit of bulk but the protection is great. I actually dropped my phone 3 times from about pocket height on ceramic tiles and tarmac and once when my 9mo son smashed it on the marble table. Took the phone out and not a single damage on it. I admire the stealthy look of the black one plus the cut out are very precise. Only downside is the bottom part where the micro USB port sits has a slight gap that do tend to collect dust but I can live with that

My Slim Armor case has been in my city for 5 day's and they won't let me pick it up. Damn FedEx. I ordered a case from Trident after I ordered the Spigen and I'm already getting that one today. Irritating. How long has it taken people ordering this case from Amazon to receive theirs?

Thanks, I use the case but I haven't really dropped it yet (luckily). Was wondering if the protection was really good on it. Of course drops vary and anyone can get unlucky but it's still nice to hear.

I was actually in a rush to get mine because I didn't want to walk around too long without a case so I paid for two day shipping. It is prime eligible though. Most items that are prime eligible even if you don't have prime and choose the 3-5 day shipping it gets there fairly quickly. At least in my experience.

I'm just anxious cause it really looks one a great case and it's ridiculous to have a package sit a couple miles from your house for 5 days. It was sent FedEx smart post, which goes from shipper, to FedEx, then to my post office. Doesn't sound too smart to me.
I laugh at the online reviews of this case, where the reviewer separates the two halves and then struggles to put the case on the phone.
It is a two piece case, but it is made to be used like a one piece case.

This really is a fantastic case! Only complaint I would throw out there is coming from the diztronic tpu case this thing is slippery as hell compared to the phone or the diztronic but I love the looks and seems like this case would for sure withstand a good fall.

Sounds good. I should hopefully have it tomorrow as I seen my post office FINALLY has it. Keep my fingers crossed, especially since I'm disappointed in another case I got today.
Is there a certain way you put the phone in the case? I know you keep the two parts together but how do you start the phone in the case and get it the rest of the way in?
Volume buttons first. Doesn't really matter.

I can say I'm very pleased with the Slim Armor. Install was simple. Very good looking case, got the black one. Very clean looking. I will say that the power button is a tad harder to push, but nothing to give a negative review about, definitely no where near as hard to push as the Zerolemon battery case for my Galaxy Nexus. All in all, very much worth the money and the wait I had to get it.
It's too big. Sent back

I cut both buttons from the rest of the case on one side, so now they press a lot easier.

What do you mean you cut them? You cut the rubber button covers completely off so the buttons are exposed?
