I've been reading complaints regarding various cases not fitting too snuggly on their GS2's as they're made for the Korean version of the phone, which has a thicker width overall.
So are there any buyers out there who have purchased a case that fits the International version of the Galaxy s2 perfectly? A link and a photo is much appreciated.

I have this one. It feels like it fits really well! It is tight to put on and take off. However, I don't use it anymore because this phone is too sexy and thin to have a case

oh, and it ships from the US which is nice if you life in the US.

case mate gelly case is made for the international galaxy s2..fits perfectly..
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CASE-MATE-CLE..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item2eb521c216
I use this case.. http://cgi.ebay.com/Black-Fusion-Sa...ps=63&clkid=881133855791952597#ht_1703wt_1139
Right now.. Until I get my Otterbox Commuter. I have to say this case of of amazing quality and is a perfect fit. It does have a raised rim around the screen that protects it. I highly recommend this case.
Thanks for the input guys.
Anyone knows though if the Pleomax cases would fit the international version?

Hey people I was hoping we could make a list of cases that are designed to fit the international/UK/Canadian version of the i9100, not the Korean version.
These cases should not have the top corner antenna cutout and should fit snugly without the use of a piece of paper.
Thanks

1)incipio ngp tpu
2)case mate safe scin ,jelly case,tough case and pop case
3)otterbox case(commuter..defender its not out yet)
4)the cheap s case tpu(some s cases have the korean model cutout..)
5)puro tpu case(made in italy)
Right now the only option I have seen is the Case-Mate barely there case.
What other options are out there? I want them to be as thin as possible.
I have the i9100 global version.
There's nothing thinner than diabloskinz (see demos on youtube).
It will add "some" protection, without the added bulk of a full size case.
i use cygnett form.. very slim. you can also try capdase or momax
SGP ultra thin air, for a barely there feeling
I use incipio NGP case.
Tis niceeeee

I have a Momax ultra thin case. For this price it is really good - fits tightly and is rather grippy. If you want I can post some pictures of it on the device.
I want some pictures of momax, please buddy=]

x2! would like to see pics too!
Just bought this case from ebay.
Very slim but still I prefer a little thicker case.
I have the Nillkin one. Bought from here:
http://www.obostore.com/nillkin-ult...eplate-for-samsung-galaxy-s2-p-1004.html#show
It took some time to arrive but it's pretty good.
I have the Case Mate BARELY THERE frome here :
http://www.case-mate.com/Samsung-Ga...te-Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-Barely-There-Cases.asp
It's seems the same form factor as the Nillkin.
The price is different.
The case mate is like the back of my old htc Hero, very smooth.
You have access to all the buttons and you can put any Jack 3,5mm without conflicts.

How good it fits to the phone? Does this case scratch the phone?
Thanks!
I found a couple of cases on ebay/obostore/ioomobile that i really liked. All are hybrid(tpu sides, PC back) like the SGP neo hybrid (difference being, the Neo has PC sides and TPU back), and are way cheaper than the Neo, just 11$ on obostore. Has any1 used these and can attest to their quality?

The SGP Neo Hybrids look much nicer, and more high quality. I would suggest going for them, you won't be disappointed.

it states 2 in 1 material meanning one case 2 material, and i have seen and used these cases.
I guess you could not use the back plate and you have a bumper style case? .
Can you do that with the SGP Neo? I thinking of ordering the Momax one

one piece two tone, you can will all tpu if you want, just cut the back off
Got the Momax case from eBay.
Fits really well with stock GSM. TPU sides provide added grip from the material and due to ergonomics.
The back plate...doesnt do much? Nice to have I guess. As mentioned above, its a once piece case. I feel as if the case will lose rigidity if I try to cut it out, so I havent tried it.
The screen protector I have not used but it doesnt seem that great. Its cloudy.
A good case overall. Lots of retailers are selling it now for about $10, search for it.

is the momax icase pro slippery?? would like to try this one out due to availability in indonesia and also there are holes for power and volume rocker.
i bought nillkin mobile skin case clear black, it's not slippery, but too bad the power button and volume rocker are hidden, and when i tried to push power button, i often find myself accidentally push the volume rocker on the other side.
It provides more grip than no case, but less grip than silicone which personally is good. I think its perfect.

thanks for the information. very tempted to buy one when my 3rd galaxy nexus replacement arrive some time next week.
just bought momax icase pro black for galaxy nexus today. lol, it looks cool. i hope there's a matter version for the outside tpu soft case would make this case perfect!
it catches finger print very easily on the glossy tpu material outside, but what the hell.
update: the glossy tpu really fingerprint proof indeed. not slippery and ease of use in and out jean pocket. like it like a lot!
Wow, i really like this case, great build! Cheaper than SGP, much better than Nillkin Mobile Skin Case Clear Black.
It has thicker lips too which protect more glass surface on front, sometimes it hinders my finger to navigate the cursor to the edge of the screen when typing. Some people appreciates the thin lips on SGP Ultra Hybrid though.
The stock screenguard is a clear one, fingerprint and oil magnet for sure!
update info on momax icase pro for galaxy nexus i9250 black, i can confirm that this case is compatible with samsung official extended battery 2000mah. fits perfectly in hand, adds build quality perception 'cause of the added minimal weight on it.

Hey guys
I currently have a Diztronic case on my GSM GNex. Wondering if other is a thinner option. I get bummed every time take the case off and run naked for bit. Its so nice and natural feeling. I know the case I have isn't bulky but if anyone knows of a thinner one let me know. Preferably in the front where the case bulges and gets in the way of your thumbs.
Thanks!

Take a look at SGP Ultra Hybrid. It's the thinnest TPU case that I've used. Though the back is hard plastic.
Edit: sorry I forgot to mention that if you are using the CDMA GNex, the case won't fit.

Ya but there are 2, the thicker one that comes in 2 pieces(Neo Hybrid) works on CDMA Gnex but the thinner one in 1 piece (Ultra Hybrid) won't.
Forgot to mention it just now.
I had the Diztronic one too and switched to the Neo Hybrid. Both are great cases but I def do prefer the Neo Hybrid. Very sleek, fits my GSM version with the extended battery like a glove, and feels very well-made. It should offer decent protection as well but not as much as the Diztronic. It's not a TPU case though just to let you know. It consists of a silicone that has been coated to make it feel smooth and lint resistant. The plastic frame part then latches on to the back and makes the case rigid. The Ultra Hybrid is indeed a TPU case.

It sounds like I need the ultra hybrid. I have a GSM and just want the least intrusive tpu case I can find

The sgp site says it is compatible with the CDMA but may not fit perfectly. Are you saying it will not fit at all..?

The case is a pretty tight fit on GSM. And by having a hard plastic back attached to the rest of the case, the only room for a thicker phone/battery is the TPU material around the phone. I won't say it will not fit at all, like you can't put it on or it will fall off, but you will get gaps around the phone even with the original battery and you can tell it doesn't fit well.
For a $22 case, it's not acceptable on CDMA IMO unless you absolutely love it and have to have it on your phone.
PS. I gave my CDMA phone to my mom and got a GSM one; will take some photos with Ultra Hybrid when I visit her over the weekend.

Did you ever get pictures of the ultra hybrid on the cdma? I'd love to see how it fits. I am a fan of the hybrid cases with the hard back tpu sides and this is the only one I have seen that I actually like but I am worried about the fit.
Hi all,
Just curious to see if anybody can point me to a good quality, ultra-slim case for my new 2014 (my second one, using it mainly for play while the other is for work). I've tried the usual MoKo, iPoetic, etc. cases and while they're great and cheap, I'm looking for something even thinner that's form fitting. I've done countless searches but all I can find are essentially the rebranded types of cases that I mentioned above. Is there anything like this out there? Thanks!
I'm not sure how thin you're going for, but the Poetic Slimline adds almost nothing, fits perfectly, and it's been great for travel use.
I did a little review on a slim case that adds no measurable size over in the cases thread. I still use both of these - the slim case on all of the time and the sleeve for storage.
Note10.1Dude said:
OK, I'm back with a couple of cases I have picked up.
First, the BuiltNY Neoprene Sleeve for iPads. Once I got it, I figured it was designed for an iPAD2 with a case on it. It is a bit big, but not huge. It has a foam insert for packing, and if you leave it in, it fits the Note 10.1 well.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0074LEMDO/ref=oh_details_o03_s01_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I also just got a slim case shipped from Hong Kong. It is very thin and does improve the grip of the Note. I'm not a fan of the back and sides of the Note, and this is an improvement without adding much size. It covers the buttons, but they are easily pushed through the case. It is very thin, so protection is pretty minimal, but it covers the corners. Quality isn't perfect, but it isn't bad.

This. It's super slim and feels nice.
Incipio has a nice shell style case, but its kind of pricey for just having a thin piece of plastic on the back of your tab. I still love mine though. The grey rubberized finish looks great on the white tablet and hides that ugly, flimsy back cover
