What kind of material is touching the phone? Is it the black color one? Is the black much softer (like silicone) Does the white hard material ever touch the phone? Reason I ask is I've found the hard plastic cases will scratch a phone if a little dust gets in there but if they have a soft lining of silicone it's OK.

It fitd like an otterbox commuter. The phone is wrapped in the grey rubber then you put the white plastic on. The plastic never touches the phone

I remember a problem on the old casemates was the rubber part that extends up the sides would go floppy and start to pull away from the phone (since it has no real support to keep it tight). Did they fix that? Do you have/know of a pic of the inside of the case without the phone? I didn't see one in your other thread.
thanks

Ill have to take it off when i get a chance but it fits very nice. I think the fact all the carries will have the same phone size wise is gona help out alot

I have that same issue with the one I purchased for my Skyrocket.

great looking case thanks for the code
Just ordered the case the "tough" code worked saved me 7 bucks!

Where to buy this case in Canada? Most likely because it's Case-Mate it'll be almost everywhere after Galaxy release up here.

Good question. I'm hunting for cases this weekend, and this is at the top of my list. I'll post here if I see the POP! anywhere.

I've had mine for a few days now. The case itself is great, but the kickstand is basically flimsy plastic and I'm very unimpressed with it. Given that the kickstand was the primary reason for my getting it, I expect to switch to the Seidio Active case when it is available, given that it will have a metal kickstand. I can't emphasize enough how flimsy the Pop! kickstand feels.

this is the top of my list also followed by otterbox commuter.

Case-mate TOUGH case. Very impressed

I bought a case mate from eBay on Tuesday and after 2 weeks with my nexus it's finally arrived. The fit is great and makes the phone feel much easier to grip and more solid too. Its a 2 section case, silicone inner with a hard plastic outer layer. They can be found for £24.99 on eBay.

Aindow, did your Tough come with a screen protector from Case-Mate?
Had one of these for my Desire before I had the GN and it came with one included. The CM screen protector was pretty good so would like to get one for the GN too.
thanks for the review
I just ordered one from thecellguru, hopefully it won't feel too thick on the phone the slimness on the phone is amazing

No I didn't get a screen protector which is kinda disappointing as someone told me they normally come with one.
I've ordered an spg protector off eBay but it's coming from south Korea so will be a while before I get it. I guess I just have to be careful for now.

It is quite thick as its a double shell(I'd say about 2-3mm thick as an estimate on all sides of the case) but for me it makes the phone easier to hold anyway and the edges of the case stick up past the screen anyway so the screen is pretty well protected anyway.
Don't forget to let us know what you think.

How tight does the rubber lip seal to the face of the phone? Tight enough to keep lint, dust or dirt from getting in there?

+1 would also like to know. Also if you could comment on how tight or loose the top and bottom above and below the screen is. I know on my sensation with a tough case it was loose below and above the screen where the hard plastic shell didn't quite extend.

WELL TONIGHT THE CASE HAS PROVEN ITSELF. My girlfriends mum knocked the phone off the worktop and it landed face down on a tile floor! Expecting the worst I picked up the phone and it's perfectly fine and was still turned on.

It's a really tight fit on the sides. The top and bottom are not quite as tight but I've had no issues with it pulling off or anything. As for the fit around the edges of the screen and dust protection its excellent apart from at the top where its not 100% snug but I think this case may possibly be designed for both versions of the GN. I wouldn't let this put you off though. I'm currently waiting for my sgp screen protector to arrive (plumped for a premium one that comes with the applicator and micro fibre cloths).
All in all I'm happy with the case.

This is the case I've been waiting for. I got the same one for my Nexus One two years ago, and it has protected it from drops on the pavement dozens of times. My N1 is still in mint condition thanks to this case.
I can't wait until real retailers start stocking these. I'd rather not order it on eBay from Asia.
I can personally say this case is great. Looks brilliant and feels really sturdy.
Only problem is that the power button doesn't click anymore, but it doesn't feel too bad and is still responsive.
I found a cheap place to get one of these cases for US people. For less then $20 I'll check it out, just ordered myself one

But is this one for the Verizon or the GSM version. The website only lists this as a compatible device: "Samsung Verizon Galaxy Nexus SCH-I515"
I just ordered one and wanted to confirm this is a hard shell and silicone skin, yes? I looked at Case Mates website and saw the iPhone 4 case and assuming it's the same setup.

Yes. It's a silicone inner shell with a very hard plastic outer case that wraps round the back/sides of the phone.

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.

I ordered a case-mate Pop! (black) for now, but I'll probably get a Seidio blue when they finally get them made. I wish they'd hurry up with the car mount. I need my Waze GPS.

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.

New Case Needed

Currently using the Aegis on my T989 and love the protection - But it does add a ton on bulk to the phone, making in/out of jeans and other pockets damn near impossible - Any suggestions on a case that offers similar protection in a slimmer profile?
Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=320938021379

I have the Incipio Samsung Galaxy S2 Silicrylic Case.
It's pretty good in my opinion. For it being silicone and a hard polycarbonate shell it's not too bulky at all.
Easy to grip in-hand and it's easy to get out of my pockets.
Hope either of our posts helped you find a great case for this amazing device!
Ballistic case.
T-Mobile D30. Great little case IMO.

This one looks to be a Ballistic SG ripoff but the price was right:
You can see that it does not drop down on the top like the SG

Go with the body glove case. It's slim and looks incredible while providing excellent protection. I can't even count the number of times I've dropped my phone but it doesn't matter because this case works really well. Anything thicker is overkill.

His GS2 is not white. It's black. He just has a white sticker on the front. The earpiece grill at the top is a dead giveaway. On the white one it is silver. I used to have the same sticker on mine but got sick of it.
Yeah, it's a white decal from decalgirl. I kind of like the two tone black and white look. Plus it hides the ugly samsung and tmobile branding so it looks cleaner.
The only downside is that it is raised from the screen so wiping oil is a little more difficult

Oh wow, the last case looks really nice. I've been using the Ballistics and love the protection but I am thinking of changing the case and I might get that one, thanks for sharing!

Ordered these 4 cases off Ebay this week to try out.
How's the thickness on the last two cases. the black transfusion and the apex? I kind of like the black transfusion,but not really sure on the thickness. I have a d30 case I bought from tmobile . Found on the monsteraccessory website.

I have been using the Ballistic SG almost exclusively since receiving the cases. The biggest bulk is obviously the bumper corners but really protects the phone when it manages to slip out of my hand.
I ended up picking up a Body Glove case when I was in the US and really liked it other than the fact that it would cause my screen protector to bubble in the corner.
I only tried the mesh backed case for a few minutes to check fitment so I can not say too much about it other than it does look really nice on the phone.

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.
