Thin cases or even none!

I'm looking for a really thin and lightweight case for my note. I really prefer to use it without the flipcase, and like the SGP ultra thin that I had for my S2. But the ultra thin is not out yet and just about every case is either too bulky or made of tpu or some other material that I don't like.
So what do u guys think? Is it sufficient to just use a screen protector? I keep my phone in my bag when not in use.

supposedly the slimmest case around.
either grab one of those, or grab one of the ebay plastic cases.
but pointless to get a case that is too slim as it wont end up offering any worthwhile protection. it may prevent scratches, but wont help with drops.

i got it 2 days ago , great grey/smoke transparent case , also i noticed it is very thin ,even thinner than the Nillkin cases (i have 2 Nillkin cases).
now i can easily plug my MHL / those big 3.5 stereo audio adapters, while with the nillkin, i had to take it off for both those adapters to fit , not saying Nillkin case is a bad one , no its is a great case.
so far im loving this new case , cos i tend more to like transparent dark cases.
hope this helps someone making up his mind
cheers

SGP Ultra Thin

Thank you for all the suggestions! I didn't know about the existance of some of them! I may still go for the Ultra Thin Air now that it is available as I had it for my S2 and coupled with an SGP screen protector, seems good enough.
For those who are unsure about how good the screen protector is, check out the video at the bottom of this page.

Does the SGP ultra easily get fingerprints?

Surprisingly you can't find that case on Casemate site. Fake case maybe?

Well being a glossy plastic I suppose it does. My case for the S2 was white so it wasn't that obvious. Btw, I had dropped that phone at least a couple of times with the casing on, without any issues to the screen or bezel. Though admittedly the height was about three feet or less.

This case, FlexiShield Skin is pretty good in the thin department. Not the thinnest but then I think its good to offer some protection just in case theres a drop and you need it:

Not fake.
Yet to be released, along with Case Mate Tough Case and Smooth Case for the Note.

i like the golla but note sure how much protection it really offers

I have read bad reviews for the Ultra thin air sgp for the GS2.
What are the chances that SGP will fix the problems from the S2 for the Note Ultra thin?

What bad reviews did you read about the S2 version?

Got one of these a few days ago, the case itself is thin and fits like a glove, that being said it scratches really quickly (it was scratched by the time I put the screen protector on) on the backside, screen protector so far seems solid.

Manicure Jelly Cases
Found some "cheaper" cases call Manicure. They look like Mercury/pleomax 9(also made in Korea) type but looking at the picture the fitment looks iffy at best.. But at $4 shipped..

Best Jelly Cases
I really like this type, seems in Japan they use these with various different phones.
I ordered the brown and lime.. I'll update with pictures when I get them.

tpu flip case, it's very soft and very thin, has a grainy/sandy finish on the outer side, the brand is temei, cost HKD 78 approximate USD 10.5, was going to buy one, but since i'm going to china in a few days time, i'm sure i'll be able to get one for about half the price.

There are many colours available, the photo above is dark blue, similar to the actual colour of the phone itself, it's just the phone flash that makes it light blue.

SGP Neo Hybrid for Galaxy S3/III Review - High res. pics, HD Video

The Neo Hybrid series of cases from Spigen SGP has been quite a favorite among smartphone users. Including myself, consumers love the unique style the cases offer. Today, I'll be reviewing Spigen SGP’s latest reiteration of the pleasing two-tone look and hybrid combination of TPU and polycarbonate for the Galaxy S III.
Special thanks to www.cretouch.com for sponsoring this review. You can purchase the Neo Hybrid for the Samsung Galaxy S III here for $26.99.
The Neo Hybrid Series for the Galaxy S III includes two different series: Lumi & Color. Both offer different colored interchangeable frames, and a different colored TPU back. Lumi Series use a dark-grey TPU, and the Color Series, a dark purple/jade. The different colors and series can be found at the link above.
Video Review
What's in the box?
In the package, you’ll find the case, one Steinheil Ultra Nano Clear screen protector, a microfiber cloth, a product catalog, and a serial number for authentication. As usual with the Neo Hybrids, it’s nice to see Spigen including a free complementary screen protector.
Installation
I’ve always had to spend a good amount of time to properly install the Neo Hybrid for other devices, but the Galaxy S III variant is very easy to install. All you need to do is assemble the polycarbonate frame and TPU together and slide your phone in, instead of putting the TPU on first and trying to slide the polycarbonate on.
Design
The Neo Hybrid for the Samsung Galaxy S III could not look better. The look created by the colorful high gloss frame and dark-themed matte TPU is just astounding. You really do get what you pay for with this case when it comes to design, something you don’t see often.
Accessibility
An issue I’ve always had with the Neo Hybrid has unfortunately remained the same with the S3 model: the headphone jack cutout. A small opening and recession in the headphone port is always present with the cases. I don’t know why Spigen can never seem to relieve this issue — maybe it has something to do with making the TPU and frame work — but the fact that it occurs here is something to note(especially for audiophiles). Besides this issue though, the case offers precise cutouts for the camera, LED flash, speakers, charging port, and microphones. In addition, the power and volume buttons are protected and covered by the TPU. Some people have mentioned these coverings to cause over-sensitivity, and while this may be somewhat true, I haven’t had any issues with them. Contacting the seller before purchase is recommended if this concerns you.
Protection
While the case looks good, the Neo Hybrid also offers some decent protection as well. TPU is known for being shock absorbent, and the Neo Hybrid certainly has plenty of it. The TPU membrane is moderately thick and should cover impact well. Moreover, with the tight fitting polycarbonate frame, the case should not detach from the phone itself. Protection wise, you should be in good hands with the Neo Hybrid. Also, it’s recommended that you install the included screen protector if you want somewhat of a full-body protection.
Conclusion
I could not recommend the Spigen SGP Neo Hybrid more highly for your Samsung Galaxy S III. It is currently one of my top cases, and for good reasons. It offers a combination of good style and protection. I mean what more can you ask for in a case? While it may be high to some, the $26.99 price tag is more than reasonable with the Neo Hybrid for the Samsung Galaxy S III.
You can find more pics of the case at my blog.

thanks for the review! been going back and forth on getting one of these for a long time. just seems to be a lack of good photographs of the case (especially with the pebble blue model)
thanks again, looks great!

Amen to that. I'm almost regretting getting the pebble blue model because all the pictures of cases always show the white model and I'm unsure of how they will go with the blue that I have. I'm very interested in this case, but I just can't tell how well the different colors would look with the pebble blue. I know spigen has some on their site, but they're kinda tiny and don't show much. If anyone has any with the pebble blue, I'd love to see some pictures.

I actually had a Pebble Blue S3, but I exchanged it for the white . I may just buy a dummy Pebble Blue S3 if requested enough though.

What a coincidence, I just bought one today and I was gonna come on the forum and ask about this. I bought the Infinity White neo hybrid model(I hope it is the revised version). I have a pebble blue gs3. Once I get it I will post some pictures if I can remember to come back to this thread Also aturyan how is the screen protector holding up so far or have you replaced it with something else? I have liquid armor applied on at the moment so once it wears off I want to try this out if it's worth it.

Tight fitting case for the S3?

So far i have tried case mate barely there, nice but little protection and the edges wear very quickly and SGP modello which is nice, but would be perfect if it were a tighter fit.
I wanted to try the neo hybrid but from what ive read the fit isnt any tighter than the modello.
Is there a case in the modello, neo style that is a proper tight fit?

I'm not sure what you mean by a "tight fitting case" beyond one that fits securely. With that as the criterion, I can recommend two cases:
Less protective, and currently significantly less expensive (because only shipping is being charged), is the ZooGue, which is available for the cost of shipping. I paid just under $6.00 for two cases shipped within the United States. The cases are well-made and at least as protective as the basic black cases my wife and I bought for our Vibrants back in July of 2010.
More protective is the two-piece DBA Ultra Complete, which I received last night from Amazon.The fit and finish are excellent. The inner layer is TPU. The outer layer is a flexible polycarbonate.

Don't ever Buy the case-mate Barely there. It's horrible quality. I've heard the SGP Neo Hybrid is good

I second the ZooGoo. It's pretty slim and one of the tightest cases I've used. The UAG and Casemate Pop are both tight but not as slim as what it sounds like you are looking for. I too have the Modello and loved it until I got the ZooGoo. I just wish I got Black and not Red.

The OP appears to be concerned about protection as well as a "tight fit." The more protection is an issue, the more I think I'd recommend the DBA Ultra Complete. But until last night, I was using a black ZooGue. It looks great with my PB SG III.

The Cruzerlite cases are awesome. Definitely tight fitting as requires some lining up to fit properly...can't just slap it on!
Buttons easily accessible, grease doesn't tend to build up like it does on my SGP screen protector either.

At the price you can't beat it. If it's protection, you need, go with the Acase. Absolute favorite all around case and another great value.

For protection, now having an Ultra Complete and reading the Acase description, I'd go with the Ultra Complete for protection. The Ultra Complete has hflexible, high-quality polycarbonate and TPU versus PCM and silicone.

So the Zoogue is "free"? I added two different colored cases and it comes out to $.02 cents plus $5.97 shipping.
edit: Ordered a blue and a white case for $5.99. Thanks for name dropping.

yes its free, i just got mine yesterday. thought it was 2 weeks before it arrives, but hey, it took only around 1 week(i guess). what i ordered was red, which i thought ill be giving it to my wife as i plan to buy her a red S3; but i instead bought galaxy note 10.1!! lol... now i have this as my spare case (together with CM phantom, otterbox commuter and metal slim(white) ) hahaha

DBA Cases is a new company that makes the Just Like Glass screen protectors and Thin Grip and Complete Ultra. There are threads discussing the Thin Grip here, the Complete Ultra here, and the current production screen protector here. (I have no business connection with the company. I came across it in my search, as a new Galaxy S III owner, for a case and screen protector. The CEO has been an active participant in the discussion of his products. In response to complaints about the coverage of his screen protector, he had made and sent to seven testers, a larger trial model. I'm one of the lucky testers. Mine came yesterday. My initial impressions of the larger screen protector, which I'll expand on over time, are in DBA Cases supersized me.)

Get the Slim Case directly made by Samsung!!!

Bright Red? How bright we talking about I wonder? There's Crimson Red for other phones they make so I guess brighter then that.
Something to match the colour tone of the Red Nexus 5 I assume.

Ordered the Red Neo Hybrid yesterday. Have the other three colors. The Neo Hybrid is a great bumper case.

Which is your favorite?

Hope the red matches the Nexus. The color of the phone is different than it looks in pictures...

Can we buy just the frames?

I wanted the silver but amazon had the gold one for $13.99 so went with the gold.
Gotta say I really LOVE this bumper, the back feel is so smooth...can't stop touching it sometimes

Originally it was the Metal Slate, but the Satin Silver now looks a lot nicer than I originally thought. The Champaign Gold caught coworkers' eyes.

Happy I saw this thread.
So the question is which to get?
Ultra Fit
Ultra Hybrid
Neo Hybrid
Slim Armor
And do any of these work with Spigen screen protectors?

Neo Hybrid. I thought at the beginning I'd get the slate gray base and later just buy the metal bumpers but Spigen does not seem to be offering the bumpers alone.

The Ultra Fit comes with the Chrystal Shell screen protector.

I emailed them asking about just buying a separate frame I myself have a gold neo hybrid because it was cheaper (on amazon) lol and love it the color is okay, it definitely will get a bit of attention with the neo hybrid and people asking if its the phone itself or a case, anyways I'm hoping they'll reply soon, others should email them and ask if they could sell just the frames and see if you guys get a response

Literally searched high and low to find just the metal frame bumpers, but couldn't find none for our Nexus 5's. Did find some for iPhone 4-5S and Galaxy S4. I also emailed them if they could sell us just the frames for our N5's since they sell them for 5 other devices, waiting for reply.

Are those bumpers really metal? I thought they are just plastic... No?
Edit: I meant those bumpers in neo hybrids

They are plastic on the Neo Hybrid.

They are plastic. Called them metal because of the look and feel compared to the softer TPU body case.

Need a case for my Red Nexus 5. How does Red ultra hybrid look? Does the color match the nexus color, since its only red on sides and back is transparent? Also is it rubber-like or plastic?
Or is it better to go for a clear ultra hybrid?
