Ballistic Case SG for Incredible 2! - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

First of all I love black and red, but even without color combos this is one sick case! I ordered mine today and am surprised that more people haven't hopped on the Ballistic bandwagon. Please chime in with your thoughts and experiences with Ballistic cases. I personally like them more than Otterbox.

Here is the link from Ballistic's website but I ordered mine from Amazon for $21 plus shipping.

thats a pretty hot looking case. i hate cases and recently stopped using my seidio surface case because even that added too much bulk for me. but i can see how this would appeal to people that enjoy cases.

Wow that's a great looking case. Definitely the best looking case I've seen yet!

Does this have the covers for the USB and headphone jack, like the OB? Kind of like those features since I am in the sandbox

I have the OB Commuter, not bad, but I like the style moreso of this one
PM for the rest as not to thread jack

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Otterbox Defender. BUT!, It isn't dustproof. I still have to take it out of the case and clean some dust that gets under the screen protector every once and a while.

I ended up buying a black one because it was nearly half the price of the red one. Will post images and review when it arrives.

Looks nice. Definitely looking forward to seeing pics. Can't complain with my Otterbox Defender though. Seems to offer about the same amount of protection.

Will cases like this, or the otterbox defender still easy to carry around. Put in and out of pocket and what not?

Not really, but that's the trade off. They do very much make the phone bulkier. Whereas I could easily put the Inc2 by itself into one of my pockets, the rubber exterior of my OB makes it very difficult. Thankfully, it's got a holster to snap in.
That said, I am referring to pants pockets versus something like jacket pocket. YMMV.

I have no problem putting it in my pocket, don't see how u could unless ur a girl with those tiny pockets or wear those skinny jeans things, but they fit in my regular old wrangler pocket just fine with the otterbox defender on it, yes, it does make it bulkier, but it was so slim in the first place, its still not really bulky in my opinion compared to other phones.

Yes these bulkies would fit in your Wrangler jeans but they wouldn't in my $500 Diesel or True Religion jeans.

That's funny, figured...

I have the black one. My only complaint is that if you press the lock button every time you set your phone down like i do, the little corner part gets in the way. If you are trying to press it with your right hand that is.

Okay I got my case today. Love the protection. Wish it covered the headphone and charger ports. If you're gonna buy this case, buy the red one. I definitely really like it but it is a pain in the ass to get out of my pockets if I'm sitting down. I used to have the Inc1 with the seidio 3500 battery. I loved how easy it was to carry that around.

cheap TPU case recommended

I ordered a cheap TPU material case from amazon for something like $7 shipped and its an amazing deal. It's a smoke colored diamond pattern and i chose it because i wanted something easier to slide out of my pocket than the regular cheap rubber silicone cases that get lint all over them and i didn't want to pay a lot of money. I also didn't want a snap on cheap plastic one that might scratch my phone so this seemed like a good choice.

I have grown fond of the tpu cases, especially the argyle pattern and it works well as regard to no lint and being non-sticky. I usually buy it for all my gadgets..xoom, Ipad, and thunderbolt.

Has anyone had experience with these cases? Can you get them out of your pocket easily without your pocket gripping it and such?

I got mine off eBay for 4 bucks. I didn't want a glossy finish, nor the argyle pattern, so mine is a matte dark gray/black finish. It should feel better in the hand.

I put the screen protector on and gave it about a day and a half, 2 days before i put the case on (the put the case on carefully)
the case sits just a but on top of the screen protector, so far, it hasnt lifted, but whatever, lifetime zagg warranty
mine arrived in the mail, smoke grey colored argyle diamond pattern just like the pics posted. easy to slip on and off but would never fall off. MUCH better than the rubber silicone material yet still nice and smooth and almost rubber or gel feeling. slips in and out of a pocket easily yet feels a little better in the hand, it sort of grips slightly better than the actual phone surface, so better one handed use. very happy for under $10 shipped!

Aluminium case for Galaxy SII..

Searching for a good case for the Tmobile Galaxy SII...came across this in ebay..is this any good?linky
Note: Im' no way connected to this seller, just that havent seen many hard cases and from the pictures these seem to be nice
i doubt it, i have a feeling this case only wraps around the sides of the phone, and not not the corners or front bezel of the phone.
i had something like this for my iphone and it only collected dust in the back and made more scratches on the back of the phone
if you drop it, your phone is gonna get F'd, which beats the point of a case.
yeah it looks nice, but i highly doubt the phone will land directly on it's back, on the case
if you want a good case, just get any TPU case, they're cheap and they dont scratch your phone

Check out this. Also located here.
Silver one with video review here.
OP, i was browsing on ebay and looking at that exact same one yesterday and i gotta say, although it looks nice and i was 2 heartbeats away from clicking buy, it isn't protecting much; other than the already safe rubberized battery cover.
I would love one that is the bumper wrap around found for the international SGS2.
Those are awesome looking.

Most cases are aesthetic anyway unless you drop your phone on a flat surface they are pretty much useless. Phone case looks great though.
Getting a metal case like this may impact your GPS and cell reception.

I've had one of these on my old vibrant. They're basically a clear hard plastic on the sides and is snapped on like the incipio feather cases. There is a slight indent in the back which is used for the aluminum "sticker" once the the aluminum is applied u won't see the indent and sits flush. The aluminum is a concentric pattern and pretty ugly in person. But that's my opinion.

I have to disagree with this. Most cases are meant to protect against daily activities. IE: Keys in pocket while walking, non caring when you put your phone down etc etc. Minor drops most cases will help against small dents and scratches as well. If a person is really worried about their phone dropping onto a hard service or really damaging it, then there are cases out there to help protect against such events. If things were aesthetic than people would just leave their phone on without a case.

These have stood the test of time for me. Sleek and durable, used them on my Sensation without issue & have taken some major wallops and spills with the GS2. Supreme protection IMO

Looking for a new case(Currently have smoke TPU)

So, I bought the smoked colored TPU case because matte black was sold out. I like the case because it's small and doesn't add more bulk to an already huge phone.
My problem is that it's very slippery, I'd like something a bit more grippy but do not want the full rubber cases, I had a case mate on my old phone and I sometimes it was a pain to take out and put in my pocket, it would just come off of the phone..
The matte black TPU I heard was good, but will it be as slippery as the one I have now.
This seems to have decent reviews:

Thanks, but the jack info is a deal breaker. I use my phone every time I get in my car with the Aux input. It's my source of music, taking the case on and off every single time would be a big hassle.
If I don't get more replies I'll take my chances with the matte black TPU.

Case with Kickstand Recommendations?

As someone who used the kickstand on my Evo OG a lot, I must have a case that includes a kickstand. Does anyone have any particular recommendations? I have used Seidio car mounts in the past, and they were very high quality and durable, but a bit on the heavy side (trade-off for durable I guess).
Anyway, I see two cases I'm interested in.

Oh man, I am so used to ordering everything from Amazon (or others) that I didn't even consider going to a store to get a case. I guess I was thinking that since the stores don't have the phones yet, they wouldn't have the accessories. Stupid thought process on my part. I'll have to go to a local store and see if I can find the case-mate.

How is it bulky? Its like 2 inches long and one inch wide. And doesn't add much thickness to the phone at all. When your fingers are in it, you won't worry about dropping it at all. I can easily reach all 4 corners of my screen with this baby. watch Qbkings review of it

I had it on my epic touch for a few weeks (before I quickly got rid of it) and it never felt like it was getting loose. It uses the 3m double sided tape, the same tape on the wall hooks that 3m makes that are rated to hold 5 lbs.
Another thing I like is that it lifts the phone speaker of the surface more so it doesn't dampen the ringer. That is partially annoying cause it doesn't lay flat on a surface if your using your phone laying down, but isn't a huge deal.

If you order the case mate thru the case mate website use the "tough" code for 20% off. I have the case already just waiting on the phone. Case looks sturdy and should be great.

How do you guys like that one? I saw it on ebay and really considered it. Does the case fit on the phone well?
Anymode's Samsung Galaxy SIII Mesh case
Hands down the original nilllkin case. I want to get this but couldn't found it anywhere for under 20 bucks and was all from far east. I end up getting the rock.
I didn't want to get the fake ones either.

Guys, looking for something below with kickstand. I see some good options in this thread but they all make the phone pretty thick.
So far, I have been using
for my captivate

Where are you guys getting cases?

At&t didnt have any just the flip case. Does best buy have cases for this device yet?

Well... I could only hope that Samsung releases some kind of ultra slim cover like the one for the GS3.

Nobody thought of buying a case or at least looking for your 1 before you got the phone?

I got this from ebay: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/160907044893...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649#ht_3659wt_1163
It's pretty cool, the texture feels like fine sand paper which makes it really easy to grip. I recommend this type of case for people with small hands like myself.

Yeah that's a great case , excellent feel fits well but the exposed bezel at top & bottom worried me a tad.
I picked up a cruzerlite on amazon to hold me over until the real cases come out. Downfall is the cruzerlite doesnt play well with my screen protector

Never had to, usually at&t has plenty. They actually blamed it on Hurricane Sandy, said interrupted deliveries.
I got a cheap one for 7 off ebay & ordered the Samsung White Note 2 case from mobilecityonline.com for $19.99. I'm going to not go case crazy like I did on the SGS3.
i don't normally get a case since i usually hate most that ive had, but i actually love the samsung tpu case. it is super thin, good coverage, rubber sides, plastic back that resembles what the phone looks like underneath, and lip that goes over the screen. you can get it 50% off on samsungs website with the coupon code, so $15. totally worth it.

Is it rubber skin thin? I mean, I dont want to bulk this device up at all but I want a really thin case.

its thin enough that you may mistake it for there being no case on there at all, just like the samsung tpu cases for the GS3. heres a thread with lots of pix and review for it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1970161

This is why I always wait a bit to purchase my electronics. It makes everything easier to have a bit of patience.
Why does everyone dislike the flip cover case? It seems like decent protection and not bulky at all?

I can't speak for everyone but I know a disadvantage is that it blocks the notification light, making it useless to have.

Seriously, I might give it a go. As long as you can leave the flip cover folded over the back of the device for the times you want to be able to see the led notification then I should be fine. But I dont plan on getting a screen protector and for throwing it in my pockets or laptop bag the flip cover might do its job in protecting the big screen.
