Active X case? - Thunderbolt Accessories

Anyone tried the Active X case for the Thunderbolt yet? I am debating this case or maybe the Rugged case from Seidio.

I just got the rugged and love it.

I contimplated about getting this case for a while. I finally ordered it, should be here soon. I loved the active on my DINC, but TBolt is a different beast so I was undecided. There is another thread that has pics and thoughts on the active if you want to have a look.

I have the silicrylic for my Bionic, it's a pretty sexy case. I'm sure the Xoom case is just as good.

I have two of these cases. One for me (the black and grey) and one for my wife (the pink one). We LOVE them!
I've got the black and gray one. I really like it, keeps my Xoom nice and safe.
Looks a lot like the otterbox one
How adjustable and stable is the stand? I like my Xoom at around 30 degrees from the surface it's on and if the Incipio case allows that, I might just get it.
Does this case work with a dock? I think for 50 why not just go with the otterbox?

Extremely protective case?

Just ordered my sgs3 a few days ago, I'm looking for case that can potentially take a beating, I work in a warehouse and I don't want to hurt my new phone I looked at a body glove at the tmo store but it didn't seem as strong as the body glove I have on my sensation, thanks I appreciate it

I have the otterbox defender and it is very solid. Feels like it should take any normal abuse.
otterbox defender, trident kraken, seidio active. Those would be my choices.

Seidio Convert seems to be the ultimate in S3 protection.

I also work in a warehouse and I'm using the trident ageis its pretty good but I'm thinking about upgrading to the ballistic Sg maxx that case looks like it can take a hell of a drop. I'm sometimes up to 30 feet high and if I drop my phone e I do t think my trident case could handle the fall. I think the sg maxx would be our best bet for surviving that kind of fall.

just got the Otterbox Commuter from Amazon. very nice case, fits perfect and feels very secure. i wouldn't worry about a drop in this case.
I work construction so yea I was worried my self lol, so I got me a otterbox defender series from a at&T store, dude hooked me up with a 25 percent off because I had a coupon for tmobile that was 30 percent off, so he did almost like a price match for me , not bad at all , plus the buttons on this case are not hard to press.

Hey, I am trying to get support to get Griffin technology to produce a survivor case for the galaxy s3. If you look in my thread you can see that it would be a cool option for us if we manage to convince them to make one , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1823703
The otterbox defender is what I would use if you want maximum protection.

Otterbox Commuter vs Seidio Active (with metal kickstand)

I'm contemplating getting one of these cases and was wondering if any of you guys had them and what you thought of them so I can get a good idea of which one to order. Thanks

I've had both (Although I had the Commuter for my old LG Optimus One) and I currently have the Seidio Active (Without the kickstand) and the Seidio Active is much much better. The silicone and plastic is much higher quality and it doesn't lose it's shape like most Otterboxes too. The only upside with buying the Otterbox is that is comes with a screen protector (A pretty crappy one anyway) and that's about it. The Seidio case is much better.

I already have the ZAGG screen protector installed so that wouldn't be a deal breaker if it didn't come with one but thanks for your input

By the way does the case get a lot of lint on it and does it get stuck inside pockets and such that's my main concern lol
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
The Seidio case picks up a little bit of lint, a LOT less than the Otterboxes do. Half the time for me it doesn't pick lint up but when it does it's barely noticeable and wipes off really easily. Can't same the same about the Otterbox though, I had a hell of a time with lint problems when I had one for my old phone.

Do yourself a favor and also check out the Trident Kraken(Excellent Video Review Here). It has an awesome kickstand, tons of accessories that can be bought(11 bucks for a windshield mount? DONE!) and you can take it out of the poly-carb box and use just the silicon sleeve when you don't need it. Plus from everything I read online, Trident offers far superior protection than SEIDO or Otterbox. And the rotatable belt clip is way better than a holster, to me anyway. Give it a look, love mine!
Also if you want slightly less protection(and thickness) consider the Trident Aegis.
Quit hatin' on the Commuter!

Of course the Trident Kraken offers superior protection when compared to the Seidio Active and Otterbox Commuter but it also adds a lot more bulk to your phone. (If you're ok with that, then go for the Kraken! It is the most protective case out of the three!).
And I wasn't hating on the Commuter, I was just stating what I had encountered when I had one with my old phone.
I decided to go with the Seidio Active case with the kickstand. It should arrive tomorrow so I'll update you guys on how it is.

Got the Seidio case in the mail today I love it but the only thing is that it doesn't have any opening for the 3 pin thing on the right side of the phone. I don't know if the Otterbox Commuter has an opening for it.

Commuter doesn't have an opening for the pogo pins either. Very few have them open and the only ones I own that have such an opening are some tpu cases I have.

Yeah I don't plan to use them anyways but so far this case is very good but we'll see how it survives a fall which hopefully never happens
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Kraken does not have them either, nor does any high-protection case I have seen.
Would have to say the seidio active is my choice. After i tested it the hard way, due to me being sleep deprived. I was working inside my car engine bay and take off the phone due to getting in the way at times. I just so happened to forget it was in their and then started to drive away to get a drink. I finally realized what happen then went searching for it the case was scratch to heck, but the phone was safe
^ Mother of Buddha :-\
I have what I'm told is a Commuter for sale.. $20 shipped 405-259-2797
I like the little groove on my case from where the kickstand is too makes it feel nice when you hold the phone.
