(Temporarily Out Of Stock) SGP Slider Vibrant! Come and get 'em!

Ok, I just happened to notice they finally have the Slider case for the Vibrant in The SGP Store.
Yesterday they still weren't up yet.
Remember, this is for the Vibrant and not just another i9000 case.
Here is the link:
http://www.sgpstore.com/index.php/cPath/23_29
I'm picking one up ASAP!
EDIT 9/2/2010: Apparently The company has run into some production problems.
That is why the cases have been delayed.
The entries have since been removed from their website.

Is that the same as the magenta one in tmobile stores?

no, it's not a silicone case.
It is a slider case.
Very nice and sleek

ARRRRG!!! theyre not in stock yet!
Edit: I ran to get my CC

Actually, T-Mobile does offer a similar case to the Slide cases mentioned, and only in the magenta color (so far, anyway).
Just for kicks, I tried it on my phone, but the plastic just seems cheap and it doesn't feel all that secure where the parts join. I would hope that the SGP ones are better quality than the no-name ones T-Mobile offers.

Hmm, Thanks for sharing!
i kinda does look like it
Do you mind taking more pictures of the case on/off the phone?
Ty

best looking cases for this phone imo. wish it had a little kickstand type thing. . .

Looks awesome, buying ASAP!
Title says it all
But on related note, is the included screen protector good? I was planning on ordering a realook one but hey, if this gets the job done without ruining the screen quality...

Are these glossy casses and do they provide grip? Also if they are glossy wouldn't they start to get scratched up when putting them down on hard surfaces?...anyone know?

I am dying for a white one. These are the nicest cases I have seen for the vibrant thus far.

Pretty sweet I dig them too just not sure what color...hmmm white or blue...

If they would just hurry up and get these in stock...

Im going with the "storm trooper" look myself .

Anyone got one yet? Someone post a short review of fitment. Hoping that the case fits well and stays intact unlike some other ones with similar install style.

I hope this version doesn't have a cutout for the antenna.

The pics definitely have the antenna cutout. Hopefully these are just sample pics.

Hope you can do a little review once you get it.

Those Ultra Silke silicone cases look quite nice, especially if their claims of them not being sticky/tacky are true.

these need to come out like NOW!

**pics included** Black Cruzer Case on Amazon fits GSM perfect

I got the black glossy Cruzer case from Amazon and it fits snug and tight...better than my Incipio case I purchased from the Verizon store. The case is nice and durable. The power button and 3 prongs are open and the volume keys are closed with a nice rough texture. The volume keys are very easy to use since they are sealed. I recommend this case to GSM Galaxy Nexus owners and the price is not bad at all.
I gave it a 5 star review on Amazon.
Here is a link...
Check out the other designs Cruzer has... Android print case looks pretty cool too.

Thank you, will order some tonight.

How is the fit and finish, for lack of a better term, of the case? How tightly does it fit around the face and how are the areas around the mold seam?
I'm currently using this Qubits case and while it is quite good, it is not perfect.

The fit and finish is great. It is not loose around the face or around the seams. Im telling you, this fits nice and tight all around the phone.
Sorry guys.... I'll get pics later today...give me about 2 hours.

I have this case and while it fits perfectly it takes away from the look of the phone. Also makes it bulky and just not the same. I have a smoked one if someone wants it. Will sell it for $5.

Sale at Amazon on these

I got black. I didn't care too much about the color though. I only use the case when I am in route from one location to another. When I'm at home or at the office I take the case off.

Commuter is not as strongly built and doesn't have a built in screen protector like the Defender.

Commuter's usually come with a screen protector you can install though right? Mine always have.

What I meant was it's about $35 on Otterbox website, but this amazon link is selling it at a cheaper price. it doesn't look legit without someone's reply saying he has shopped there before.

Pop off the plastic. Not really difficult but it is on there solid and has absolutely no chance of falling off ever. Then the rubber skin just comes right off as you would imagine a rubber skin would. Not super hard but it is a 2-step process for such a strong defensive case.
Took me all of 10 seconds to pop off the cover and the battery case on my current phone.

You can find it cheaper with free shipping from Mobilecityonline.com, $24.99. I've ordered from them before and they are reputable.

The pics on the site look real. They also did a video review of the case with drop test....there was a pic of what looked to be genuine otterbox packaging. Hoping it's the real deal....they see to be a legit site. When I ordered mine today they had no stock of the blue, purple or green....only a crapload of black and 13 (make that 12 after my order lol) of the glacier.

Anyone bought from them before? Or found some useful reviews of the site? Only found a bunch of youtube videos by them.
I've ordered a case from Noreve already, but had an Otterbox on my HD2 and the protection was great... especially when you're drunk and likely to drop your phone :laugh:

Ok I bought myself one. Looks like it will be a cool case especially since you can use the holster as a kick stand.

That was a selling point for me as well. I love my ballistic sg maxx, particularly due to the less bulky holster....so it will probably be my go 2 when leaving the house. When hanging at the house I will make good use of the kickstand feature on the otter holster. My only wish would be that it could be used in portrait mode. I had an otter on my last phone and NEVER knew it had a kickstand until a few days ago. :banghead:
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2

Does this have a belt clip (deal breaker for me)? Also, how is the screen protector? Do you have to use it? Thanks.

Yes, it comes with a belt clip. It's a separate holster that stays on your belt and the phone clips into it. It can also be used as a kickstand if you take it off your belt and 'lock' the clip open.
If it's anything like the HD2 Otterbox the screen protector is good, but mine didn't hold up well to repeatedly removing the phone from the case, it developed blotchy parts where it was sticking right to the screen and other parts weren't. Eventually I removed the screen protector (it's not designed to be removable, so you can't put it back in if you do remove it).

dang. That is a good deal. I bought a Glacier one from Amazon yesterday for $35 I think. Im kind of nervous if the case is legit though...
This is the one I bought, anyone buy from "ITX Wireless" before?
NEVERMIND: I cant post links yet, but seller is ITX Wireless on Amazon, hopefully its real.

Thanks OP for the link! Just bought myself the Glacier to go along with my white SGS3.

Bought! Thanks, nice deal. I just happened to break my case today unfortunately...so this worked out well. Went with Glacier.

Thanks for posting this excellent deal. I've used Smartphonepedia.com recently. I ordered my Galaxy S3 Body Glover tpu case from them. It arrived extremely fast and if the case is knockoff, I honestly couldn't tell. It came in retail packaging and the product shows no signs of being 'cheap' or 'knockoff'.
I definitely did not hesitate on taking advantage of this deal. I ordered the glacier colored case and even though it's on back order, i'm perfectly fine with waiting considering the cost savings and besides my Body Glove case from this company is holding me over just fine. Thanks for this find again!

waterpfoof case for the s3

I know a lot of us has been looking for a waterproof shockproof dustproof snow proof case for our s3. Lifeproof has failed to deliver same goes for with otterbox, they are taking for ever. I found one that is available in a few hours. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/enflux/agilis-series-premium-galaxy-s3-case check it out. And it is cheaper than otterbox.

100k in 52 hours yea i highly doubt it'll reach its goal. Best of luck though.

In my situation cautious yes. I work in a really dusty enviroment and I use the case only in the workplace. And I got my earlier Sony's screen broken because of no case in the workplace....
I don't use this case in my freetime. It's just too bulky to have in your pocket and phone is a little more difficult to use.
There's couple disadvantages in the case:
- you can't press the powerbutton on the rightside. It's blocked because the hinges of the case are on the right side.
- I have had problems with the voice. I need to take the phone out of the case when talking with someone because they can't hear almost at all for some reason. I have not researched do anyone else have this problem and can I do something for it
I have also a bike clip for the case. I have not tested it yet (I have some plans to use the phone as a cycling computer in the summer time).
I'm little struct between this or Griffin Survivor (I have them both). Griffin Survivor is much better in almost every way (belt clip in Griffin case is really good) if you don't need water proofness but it's much harder to put the phone to the case and take if off.

Got this case to use on my bike: http://www.topeak.com/products/bags/smartphone_drybag_5_bk

Would an s3 with extended battery fit in this case, im already looking for quite a while for something like this but never realy wanted to order one because i am worried that it would not fit for extended batteries

Do these waterproof cases float? If no, what kind of depths can they handle? (I assume 1m)
I'm waiting for the otter armor.
