[Q] Kickstand cases? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I saw some decent kickstand cases for the SGS2 with AT&T, but I have not been able to find any yet with the TMO version. Please let me know if you find any out there specially made for the TMO SGS2!
I'm having major kickstand withdrawals since upgrading from my EVO 4G.
Oh and I'm looking for a landscape kickstand, not the portrait kickstand found on the Body Glove case in the TMO stores.

Same here, would love some kickstand

Bodyglove makes one, Its ok.
T-mo sells them in store for a resonable fortune.

Oh, it does work for landscape mode? Nice!
Thank you for the pictures. Can you post one of the front of the case? I want to see how much of the bezel it covers and if it gets close to the edges of the screen.

The only thing i dont like about it is that the top and bottom arent covered.
The inside has a felt material to protect the phone from the case.

I tried it on my phone and it felt incredibly cheap, tacky color/design, and lack of real protection. If it fits your needs then awesome. For me I am kinda rough on things and like protection all around. I can appreciate the usefulness of a kickstand.

I also would like a little more protection. It seems like most of the kickstand cases are hard plastic, but I at least want a gel/silicone insert something like the otterbox commuter often has.
Hopefully they start actually releasing some good cases for this phone soon.

Case-Mate has them. Depending on what carrier you are on some are available now. The T-Mobile one is coming soon.

Oh, the black and white ones don't look too bad at all. Price is a little high, but this is very close to what I'm looking for. I really like the grippy edges. I'm hoping that a case will make my power and volume buttons a bit harder to push on accident (which I am constantly doing).

I like the case mate one also and I found it on sale:

That is a good deal alright, but that case isn't for the T-Mobile version. Those are still listed as 'coming soon' on the Case Mate site.

lol...that i didn't know..guess can't get it for cheap yet.

Casemate is still taking forever to get their T-Mobile cases out, even after some rumors that they were coming a couple weeks ago. http://www.case-mate.com/pulse/samsung-carriers.asp . Looks like if it does come out, they will be asking $35.00 (same as Sprint and International price).
Trident said they were going to do their Kraken kickstand case for the TMO SGS2, but then when it came time to ship cases, they ended up only shipping the Aegis case (no kickstand) (http://www.tridenteer.com/categories/Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-(T%2dMobile)/ - $29.95).
But it does look like Seidio has finally shipped a kickstand case, http://www.seidioonline.com/t-mobile-samsung-galaxy-s-II-active-case-black-p/csk3ssg2tk-bk.htm . There is a review for the case here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1336684 . Priced at $34.95. There is a 15% off promo code for this case, "Winter11".

I've placed my order for the Sapphire and Amethyst ACTIVE cases from Seidio. There is one review in the linked thread with pictures and then only one other user who made some general comments.
There are no reviews yet on Amazon, but the cases are listed there for the same price (no promo code). Amazon has the black in stock and the others shipping in 2-3 weeks.

I have the Seidio Active, switching from Ballistic. There is a big difference in feeling, mostly due to the Ballistic being so big and harder to press the buttons. I needed something with a belt clip, and I've gone with the Active series for my last 2 phones (HTC Sensation, LG G2x). It's a great combo all in all.

~$25...not sure if its my style though.

Silicone Cases

So far I'm only seeing the one for the UK Galaxy S.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Silicone-Case-C...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item2c55b58060
Shows the flash hole. I might grab it though either way to protect the Vibrant once its released on Thursday.
I hate those, I like the crystal cases like this
http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Samsung-Gal...Accessories&hash=item19bdd032ba#ht_2656wt_930
I like them because there not super soft and flimsy. those fall off easy.
The crystal cases are a firm jelly type material and don't take up so much of the edge
And that's a speaker hole not a flash hole
I'll let you know if it fits my phone

you can go to the Gmarket (korean ebay) and see more
zenus cases seem to be the dominant galaxy case maker - on ebay do a search for "zenus cases" - have no idea why the seller titled his listings the way he did, but they don't show up under any samsung or samsung galaxy S i9000 search - i've ordered one of the zenus silicone cases
you can also do an ebay search under "samsung vibrant" and it'll pull up entirely different results as well

The only problem with buying the Zenus cases at the moment is that it'll take awhile to ship here since they are coming from South Korea. Some users on MoDaCo report delays in shipping. FYI on the Zenus cases, the hole in the top corner is for their TV antenna. (lucky koreans)
Let me know what your experience is like. I'm debating between getting a Zenus case or waiting for Amzer to release their cases. Amzer's website shows shipping dates in August.
i ordered the zenus silicone (black) and bar type leather case (black n blue). Hopefully they get here realtively soon, but in the meantime i have other leather holster/cases from PDAir to hold me over, so I'm not overly concerned.

i'd love to hear how that case works out for you, i have a friend in korea and she's gonna keep an eye out for that case as well as others for me.
I wonder how the T-Mobile gel cases will feel? I'm thinking about getting one to tide me over until I order one of those gorgeous Zenus leather back covers.

yeah the main reason i pulled the trigger (other than that it looks like really good quality and design) is that over on vibrant forum on the official tmo site, they confirmed that dimension wise, our phone is identical to the international version including the back hump, so everything should line up fine as far as most accessories go (car docks, home docks, etc)
I picked up the gel case from T-Mo since they were giving me $40 in accessories. I actually really like the feel of it... It's all black and looks sleek on the phone.
I imagine I'll pick up a seidio SP and call it a day.
ANY WORD ON THE SCREEN OF THESE PHONES? I HAVE NOT SEEN A SCRATCH TEST VIDEO.

I picked up the very same case, it looks like the Zenus cases that were on eBay. Feels great, fits snug and it doesn't get in the way of typing or using any of the buttons.

I took the rubber case from TMo also - I like it, too. Now to find a good screen protector....

fommy.com is beginning to sell more cases for the vibrant but none will ship out until early august.
Im actually very surprised by the Tmo phone case. Normally their cases are very flimsy or poorly made but I went ahead and got this one just for now, but im really diggin it. I think it might just stick with me as long as the phone does..who knows.
Does any one know where to find a good crystal case? You know those hard/soft plastic cases?

^ my store only had black...

Case-Mate has released a T989 Barely There Case

Just FYI
**UPDATE**
I know not many of you are into the minimal protection/"Flare" cases, so there's another way you can contribute to Case-mate extending the T989 case lineup. Goto Case-mate's Facebook page and click on the Feedback link on the left column. Search for T989 Cases and vote for it. Obviously, you can see where I'm getting at. If we can get enough votes, it would convince Case-mate to extend the lineup.
If you use the promo code "fblike20". You can get it for $20 shipped.

So I go to the case-mate website, I see casemate selling a cool ass Marvel comics cases for Iphone 4/4s and I search for the t-mo case and I see this crap case! I want a god damn Iron Man Case.
too bad it only comes in the boring black color, otherwise i'd try one.
On the site it does say it comes in metallic silver but its not listed yet. I will be picking that one up when it is released.
looks no different from the incipio feather cases except incipio offers more colors
People were reporting fitting problems with the Incipio case though.
Looks very similar to the diztronic amazon case....
Thanks for the heads up, been wanting another case to keep in my rotation... a pity only black atm

Im very happy with my Incipio case and the fitting is perfect .. But i'll try this one aswell too see the difference.
Dang, how come the T989 has the least cases
Welp, thanks, but I dislike snap on cases. They don't look that great to be honest.
Yeah, I was hoping for a POP! case but it's obvious Case-mate doesn't see much promise in the T989 and wanted to test the waters. Hopefully spreading the word would result in enough purchases for them to release more colors or more cases x(>.<)x

It just looks weird to be honest, dislike the open parts like the top and bottom.
Doesn't really provide protection from drops...
I LOVE the D30 case. It doesn't really add any bulk, I think it makes it more comfortable in my hands and it definitely provides the added protection.
It's either no protection and a naked phone or if I was going to use a case I'd use something that actually provided protection.
Just my .02 cents. We all have different opinions, no hate.

TPU Bumper

Anyone bought the following TPU Bumper for the Galaxy Nexus?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/TPU-BUMPER-...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item905d2ca610
How is the fit for the GSM version of the GNex?
Will the TPU bumper lift the camera lens away from the surface like how I suppose the front lip (which I hope is minimal) can lift the screen away from the surface when the phone is placed downwards?
How is the gloss like? Any other similar products with matte?
Are the buttons cut-out?
Does it add a lot, width wise?
Is the tpu rubbery? in the sense that it is sometimes hard to pocket?
Wow... lots of questions lol.
Crap, I just found a thread that has the same link. Thread title: "Best Case for Extended Battery $5 (Picture)"
Sorry if I accidentally double posted, my mind filtered out any threads where extended batteries are referred to since I have the standard batt.
Looks good, I am also looking for one.
but not shipping to sg
I ordered one of these. Should be here one day next month. I hate waiting, but that's what it is when shipping from overseas.

Mine was delivered on Friday. Very nice... fits perfectly and doesn't add much extra to the phone. It easily slips into your pocket fine even with the rubber which is only very slight. The buttons are covered with the rubber giving it a nice feel while protecting them. I got the black one and the phone feels very good in the hand with it on. Looks very stylish and still retains the GNex look while protecting it.
Hope this info helps. Only issue was it took 3 weeks to get to me..... only got the postal service to blame for that though LOL
I ordered 2 last weekend. My GNEX had been the first phone that I've gone naked with for this long and I'm loving it, but get freaked out of the thought of dropping it with no protection. Hopefully this is a good compromise.

I ordered my case from the op's link for my verizon nexus.
Case came in yesterday and overall its a damn good fit and feel for just $4.
Bought a white one but will probably order a black one as well.
I'll post up pics in a bit.
Got the case from the OP yesterday..*FINALLY*!!
I'm using the CDMA version with the extended battery and the fit is fantastic.
I hate having a case on this phone because it just looks and feels so great in hand naked.
This case feels great AND it's minimal enough that it maintains that sexy nexxy look and feel. Seriously, it looks great in person. Couldn't be happier!

Ordered the b&w, will review it when I get it. Thanks a lot for the tip!
I finally received my TPU bumper last week. It's definitely for the GSM version, though I don't mind it on my VZW phone. I like it a lot. But yesterday, the black TPU portion separated away from the white plastic section at the USB port area so I can't use it anymore. Could just be a fluke in my case though. I contacted the original seller to see what they can do.
I doesn't notice it in HK!

Leather case for galaxy S3

i ordered one of these , as keeping the case away from your skin by a few millimeters cuts down the emissions by heaps
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/D2-EASEC...Accessories&hash=item5ae746eee8#ht_3358wt_905
I didn't get my case, yet but I have search results based on Google.

They're expensive, but Vaja has one small leather case out already, and I'm sure they'll design more with the relative similarity between carrier devices, and the number of buyers across the world.
The first one they've come up with is $70, which sounds really high, but I can tell you from experience that these things are inSANEly well-made. They're probably hand-stitched by one 85 year-old lady in Venezuela, but their cases are awesome.
Cheaper one

I can't post URLs yet, but I got a leather carrying case on Amazon for about $6.
I got this one. I love it because vertical position is a must and also the clip can rotate. It does leave some black marks on the back of the phone but nothing is perfect
The $5 & $10 cases on ebay /amazon are not real leather.
I am also interested in some real leather options. A search showed "hoco" as an option, they look pretty slim too.

I've had an Easecase (a different model from the one the OP ordered - I think mine is a B1) for my HD2, S2 and now S3. They're really well made, fit perfectly and you get a choice of leather, lining colour, closure system etc, I do look at other ones available but in the end I always end up getting their stuff

Seconded! I don't have one for my S3 (yet), but I've been considering the Grip or the Pouch they have on their site.
I've bought their cases for past phones and not only do they look great, but they're very durable. The price-point is a little painful, but well-worth it in my book.
Might as well ask this here. But do any of you guys (yea guys on this one) carry around a wallet case? I was gonna get a SGP Valentinus black for my SGS3 but I got to thinking, maybe it seems a little feminine. I wanted one cuz it would mean for me to not carry a wallet around. I wanted either the Valentinus or the Argos. What you guys think

Might as well ask this here. But do any of you guys (yea guys on this one) carry around a wallet case? I was gonna get a SGP Valentinus black for my SGS3 but I got to thinking, maybe it seems a little feminine. I wanted one cuz it would mean for me to not carry a wallet around. I wanted either the Valentinus or the Argos. What you guys think

You can use Capdase leather case. Maybe some of them got wallet design. But recently, they use a frame to hold the phone and neglect those wallet layer. Sigh........
is it genuine ?

I bought the same exact one last night. My friend has a very similar case for his Galaxy Note and it looks nice.
I also bought the Rock Quicksand case from this website, cheapest online:

I have this case in all clear. All the holes line up correctly as long as you put it on right. The only issue I have with it is the kickstand rubs on the back of the phone when you open it and may eventually leave small marks if used enough.
I ordered the same case in black without the kickstand and I am going to put my FlyGrip back on it. This thing is awesome as long as you don't mind the extra thickness.

Is a nice case. I was looking for it myself until i bought the rock. However, I think this is a knockoff of the Nillkin case. I look everywhere for the Nillkin and was selling for over 20 bucks so i end up passing.

I received the case yesterday. I'll tell you what, if it is a knockoff, they did a pretty damn good job. The case isn't as "plasticy" as I thought it was. It has a hard rubbery feel to it. It looks exactly like the one in the pics, to a tee.

Shipping took almost 3 weeks but for the price, I can't complain. Adds almost no bulk and fits perfectly. All the holes line up

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Cool-Vent-Case/dp/B0080D1GHK Best one yet. Pop a quarter in the back and you have a kick stand. Takes a couple weeks to arrive though.

I tried out a Body Glove case at an at&t store and it feels way better than the case I mentioned above. I finally put my Flygrip on it today. It's a bit expensive, but it makes the phone more comfortable and you really can't tell the difference in your pocket. It also helps keep the speaker off wherever you placed your phone so it doesn't dampen your notifications / ringtones.
I just got my cheapo TPU kickstand case
(http://www.ebay.com/itm/TPU-Plastic...ccessories&hash=item4845f27e73#ht_3661wt_1396)
It's actually pretty nice so far! The matte pieces are harder plastic, and the clear parts are softer TPU. I was a little worried that the sides would be uncomfortable to hold, but the texture is fairly dull so they don't poke your fingers.
The big draw for me was the kickstand, which is mostly ok. It works, in that it flips out. I do have two concerns though... (1) as you can see, there's no other layer underneath, so when it's open that part of the back case is exposed. This isn't a big problem except I expect it to trap a bit of lint and stuff. Then, (2) hopefully there is enough clearance for it to open that it's not rubbing on the phone all the time. It's also a little hard to get a fingernail in there to open it, but not horrible. It's hard to complain too badly for $7.50, including a screen protector, a neat little stylus (which is actually pretty great, probably the best touchscreen stylus I've used so far), and an entertaining Engrish manual.
Disclaimer: Fitment review is TBD, however, it fits my new cardboard GS3 pretty well (pictured) Now, I just need my real one! I also got the clear version to show off my pebble blue, as opposed to the pictured "white" model.
Edit: I should also note that I got some of those XtremeGuard body skins that were on sale and plan to put them on as well. So, hopefully that will protect the back case against possible wear from the kickstand, as well as mitigating the issue with that section of the case being "open".
