Ballistic Case With Zagg With Reiko XXL Holster - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I recently got the phone and wanted to show you guys an alternative holster that i havent seen on here. i have the ballistic and zagg but wanted to get the siedio but it came out the day after i got all this lol but overall im very happy with this setup. The Case is a reiko PH01-XXLBK
Also i got a square trade warranty from the app on the phone for 2 years for 99 and 50 deductible if someone is looking for a good deal on aftermarket warranty.
here are some pics.

Doesn't it make you look like a tourist with that case on your belt?

Where did you get the Ballistic from? Yours looks different than the others I have seen. Specificly the way it covers the phone on the front. The others dont have that little drop down in the upper right-hand corner.

I wish this came in other colors besides all black and I'd definitely buy it. With this case, is it still feasible for in and out of pocket maneuvering ??

just got it from ballistics. love the case. the velcro case is awesome, fits perfect and looks very professional with my uniform.

The only ballastic case made for our phones has that dip that you are talking about. Its in the pics of the full review I gave of the case which is also posted on this forum.

Mine has the same dip, only one I've seen as well. Anyone know what the purpose of it is?

I dont doubt you, but look at what I found. I dont know why these are sold as T-989 if they are not. I wonder whats up here. Could it be boot-leg cases? But they are being sold on Amazon. I dont get it.

where did you purchase the reiko? everywhere i am checking it's sold out.
thanks

i went to one of those universal shops in the mall and had them order it for me. it was like 15 bucks. works great.

Those are some of the ugliest cases with the corners...I mean I guess that ads alot shock absorbent but I can't get past how awkward it looks to try it out

Bingo. I'm going to support the company that listens to its customers, and buy a Trident case... since they're producing the thing that Otterbox should be.

I thought the same thing when I purchased my trident case, now 2 weeks later I am wishing I held out for an otterbox.
I feel like the case does not offer much protection for the amount of bulk it adds considering I had to remove the screen protector in order to be able to use the whole keyboard in portrait mode.
I will be buying an Otterbox when they come out.

Same here. The Trident case would be perfect if the screen protector was better. It scratches easily. I am going to remove the built in protectector and put one of my Realook protectors on.
As far as Otterbox...I'm disappointed that they waited so long to do this. Most of us have had the Vibrant since this summer. I have a Case-Mate & Trident. Now I'm wondering if I even need the otterbox (even though it DOES look sweet!).

Yea, I mean ... it's not a big deal that it has a small little hole for the FFC.
Also, if you look at the case for the Galaxy S and Vibrant, they look identical. Maybe because since it's not available yet they just used the same picture of the case to give us an idea of what it'll look like .

It looks as tho it may just be a separate screen protector they are talking about. Because in the pics they show of it , it doesn't appear to have on attached to the case itself
This is exactly what I need!..seeing as how I just dropped mine and cracked the screen :-(

Just purchased..will submit a review when it gets here some time next year...im currently using the body glove case...nice case..but i have dropped it twice and the whole thing fell apart, damaging the phone..whats the point of a case if it cant take damage? i wouldve much rather spend the 30 bux on something like this otterbox if it was available at the time..Cheers all!
This is fantastic been waiting months for this, cant wait to order mine!

Took less than 10 seconds to open a new tab, type "otterbox" into siad new tab's address bar, hit ctrl+enter, then select Samsung, and then Vibrant from their dropdown menu and view the item of your desire.

Case-mate tough case, not out yet?

On their eu site it shows the case and I like what I see. Looked around and it appears that its coming soon. I was wondering if anyone knew about availability? I have an inquiry in and will report back if it hasn't already been dug up and reported here.
edit... I should have put a link here, my bad. Here is a link to the goods. ---> http://www.case-mate.eu.com/samsung-galaxy-s-2-tough-case-black.html
I don't have any news but thanks for sharing that link. I've been looking to see if Case-Mate was preparing any cases yet for the SG2.
Have you had one previously? I'm running a siedio case right now that I really like. It is a hard rubbery feeling outside that gives some grip but it doesn't collect lint or get stuck in pockets. This is what I'm looking for.
barely there case is out..2 sellers on ebay.uk and amazon uk too..
but i can not find the other hard case

Yes I did. I liked it, nice looking, not too thick and had a nice solid feel to it when you grasped the phone. It slide in and out pretty easily and didn't pick up stuff from my pockets.

I'm going to try out the Barely There case for now... I've had those before too. Not nearly as protective but I'd rather try one of these out than some of the odd stuff we are seeing so far.
I ordered some gel cases from Deal Extreme that still haven't shown up yet - a little worried using my SGS II without a case (it's a bit slippery). I like the look of the Case-Mate barely there or Safe Skin - will pick one up in London week after next (I'm sure CPWH will have them...)
Case-mate has responded to my email this morning. They expect to have them available to the public in two weeks.
Hi,
I always use the case-mate tough case on a of my phones, andhave one on pre order from mobile den, cpwh will bedding then for around £25 and the barely there will be much cheaper but to me does not provide grip or good protection.

I purchased this http://www.case-mate.eu.com/samsung-galaxy-s-2-gelli-case-clear.html and the screen protector that shipped with it is totally the wrong size and has no hole for the home button. it is too short and too narrow almost a galaxy s screen protector with no hole for the home button. I checked 3 different carphone warehouse and they are all the same. I emailed case mate and was told they knew the screen protector didn't fit but just use it anyway.
Really disappointed in the company. No reason at all this should be sold like this. The case is very nice however but at £13 its not cheap if you have no screen protector
Dont know if this will be the same just to let you know
I dont use screen protectors, hate em. Nevertheless I don't like the sound of an outfit shipping a piece that to my mind would be useless and not what was represented. What is your feelings on the fit of the case itself in regards to the cut outs and so on? Overall quality? Value?
This is now available on amazon uk, I have one on the way so I will post up with my impressions after I have it in hand.

[REVIEW] Ballistic SG Case (UPDATE)

UPDATE:
I have seen a lot of questions about people seeing this case with out the lip portion which is on the top right of the screen. I just found this case on ebay which is half the price and does not have the lip.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Xshie...648123?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2a176d08fb
Here is a White version I also found which looks nice.

Ballistic SG Case for T-Mobile
I just saw it on eBay and it looks like a great case for protection.
Here is the company's site with the standard S2. They haven't added our phones yet to their site.
http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s2-ballistic-shell-gel-sg-series-case
Just recieved it today. I like the way it looks but it has a couple of drawbacks.
Pros:
1) Pushing the volume or power button is the best I have seen yet for the T-Mobile GS2 cases. Very fluid just like there isnt a case and the buttons make the natural noise that they make just like not using a case.
2) Seems to be the best protection I have seen for the GS2. I think it will handle a drop very easily.
3) I dont have a screen protector but the way this is designed I dont see how this case would cause any issues like the D30 cases do due to a tight fit. Its somewhat loose and should not cause the corners of a screen protector to lift up.
4) Has a great feel to it and adds some weight to the phone.
5) Protects the back camera perfectly.
6) It does add some thickness to the phone but this is because the phone is extra protected. I would say it is about 1.5x to 1.75x as thick as the phone without a case on it.
Cons:
1) The first layer is rubber and due to this fact it has a few issues.
2) Collects lint easily from your pocket.
3) Can be difficult at times to put in and out of your pocket due to the rubber.
By far though this is the best case I have had for a phone. I own a couple of TPU cases for the T-Mobile GS2 and a D30. It makes the D30 look like junk even though the D30 is a great basic case.It has some drawbacks but the pros outweigh the cons. I definitively recommend this case to anyone that wants the ultimate protection for their phone and doesnt mind cleaning the lint off everyonce in a while. If you like my review please give me a thanks.
just saw one too. didnt kno that they started to make them yet. their a little bulky for my line of work. and since im a student im not really in the situations where is need THAT Much protection....but do a review if you get one.
I ordered one. As soon as it comes in I will post pics.

I have to say yes... I'll take measurement tmrw but the corners are thicker than all of it. Its still not bad. Fits in my pocket n like how it feels in my hand ... I like the texture of back compared to the d3o.
To be fair, the rubber corners will pick up lint just like vibrant otter box. This thing is maximum protection...

Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Thanks, got one on order. This will be my 4th and hopefully final case for this phone, I am a fan of otterbox so I think I will like it. I started with the black bodyglove from tmobile, not a bad case but a pain in the ass to take of so I got one of the clear TPU cases from ebay and its a great case. And then the D30 came out so I exchanged the bodyglove for it, had to take it back because it fit like crap, the next one fit 95% better but is still uneven around the edges and for a $25.00 piece of rubber it should be perfect like the $7.00 one from ebay.
The first D30 that I got was from T-Mobile. That one fit perfectly, just didn't like the way how the button press felt. So then I also got a TPU case from eBay. Next thing T-Mobile gave out the cases so I picked it up, returned the original one I bought at T-Mobile store, but then the one I got from T-Mobile online, it fit 95% and was bubbling up my Realook. I was hoping for a Seidio case to come first but since I've heard good things about Ballistic case, I gave it a shot. Waiting for it to come in the mail now.

Oh yeah, that was the other thing, the buttons. Volume not too bad, power button was a PITA on the D30.

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

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".

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.

here is the case i bought on ebay.

Body Glove "Defender-like" case!!!

So I'm browsing through the electronics section at Wal-Mart looking for a wireless mouse and I happen to stumble upon a new case for our phone. At first I'm thinking, "Oh, so now we have an Otterbox Defender!" Then I look at the box and it's a Body Glove!
I looked online for this case, but cannot even find it on the Body Glove website. I took a few pictures of it. It looks pretty good. It's a little bulky, but not too much. Very sturdy. The case is three parts - two for the inner hard plastic and one for the outer rubber-like shell. It's much easier to install than the Otterbox cases, but really feels just as protective - for less as well (paid less than $40). I said "Defender-like", so yes it comes with a holster - and it's almost identical to the Defender holsters.
Have any of you guys seen this case in any local stores? It feels like a pretty good one.
I haven't seen one in stores yet...because i have not been looking for one. I will see if i can find it...
What's the product number and can you post pictures of box it came in

That's cool...
OK, here are photos of the case this thread is talking about. Not much info on the case itself, and I threw the box away pretty quickly.
I took pictures of the box in the store. Its like $38. They show up fine in my gallery, so not sure why tapatalk is turning them sideways.

Apparently this is very new. Military tested specs, and it feels and looks much better than the Otterbox. I'm using a Thunderbolt for work with the Otterbox Defender. They look similar from a distance, but the look and feel in your hands is not even close. They also had one for the GS3. After several days of use, this has to be the best looking, best feeling, sleekest (relatively speaking, of course) heavy duty shock resistant case I've owned (and I've owned quite a few over the years).

Got this today and just luving it. Had the Body Glove Diamond white case before and it was a good quality but the Tough Suit case is perfect. Not too thick, built like a tank, this is the new batmobile from Christian Bale's Batman Trilogy if the other thin and slick cases are the stealthy slick batmobiles from the past xD
How are the buttons? Are they nice and tactile or stiff and mushy? That's what's bugging me about the D30 Impact case. The buttons are way too stiff and mushy (and before someone says I should hit the gym, I'm no chump. I can press them just fine, it's just annoying).
Just ordered one of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-OEM-Whi...727&pid=100015&prg=1006&rk=1&sd=290717667572& I think I'll review it once I get it.

I'm using this case as well and it fits perfectly and adds the exact amount of weight and size to it. Only thing was I got ripped off haha I think I paid 20 something for it and saw it on amazon for less than half of that. But I needed a case asap.

My co-worker has one of these on his black T989, he's happy with it, however I don't believe he's ever really dropped it so no drop-test experience with it. Oh, and those cases were also being sold at the T-Mobile store, for $29.95 label, no discount for clearing stock.

they look pretty beefy compared to mine and when i dropped mine it was fine the only thing that looks off in the pictures is that it doesnt look completely snug.

say whaaaaat?! hahaha! I didnt even notice :silly:
Got my Body Glove Diamond case a week ago and reviewed it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2004609
I also bought the black body glove case at Walmart and after 24 hours I'm loving it. The only gripe I had was the built in screen protector. I have zagg so I took a razor knife and cut it out. Couldn't ask for a better case.
I want one of these cases, but I can't find it anywhere.
Love my seidio active case and holster. Better than my old phones otterbox!
Just saying!
