Case with Kickstand Recommendations? - Galaxy S III Accessories

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.
Case-Mate Pop! with Kickstand. ~$35

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.

call first dont waste the gas

I'm waiting on the blue Seidio Active with kick. The black is available for preorder now, so hopefully it won't be long. Good to know there's the Case-Mate, too.

Holy crap, that's ugly, bulky and won't protect my screen when I put my phone face down.
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

The Flygrip is pretty awesome. I just put it on my Body Glove case today.

aren't you guys worried about the flygrip coming unstuck and you droping your phone as a result?

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.

I would say this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHEzogJcXfE

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.

Ballistic Case SG for 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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Where are you guys getting cases?

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.

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.

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.

Looking for a good kick stand case

I am looking for a good kick stand case for my M7. I had this Aduro case for my Galaxy S3 and loved it because it was thin and came with a holster. I emailed Aduro and asked them if they were making on for the M7 and they did not reply. Has anyone else found one? I would think with my speakers on front there would be plenty of these but I haven't found one!

Seidio makes one. I have one and I think it's pretty nice. It looks good and the kickstand is pretty sturdy. The only downside is removing it. At first it seems impossible to do so, but you just gotta get used to gripping the bottom to pull the top off.
Thank you for your message very look forward to your update again
Hi! I bought this one from Handhelditems.com
Got this and I like it. Nice grip and comes with a holster.

I've had the casemate pop for my last 2 phones but it doesn't seem to be available yet for the One.. I'd seriously recommend to keep an eye out for it and buy it if possible.
Currently I'm using the genuine htc double dip hard case for day to day and the double dip flip case for when I'm gonna use my phone as a video player. It works really well for watching movies etc and is a nice case.

Speck makes a TPU kickstand case that can be used in both portrait and landscape. Its nice but was a little too thick for my liking though. So far, the best one I have found is the Seidio Surface w/kickstand. Its really thin and feels good in the hand. The only downside is that the kickstand is not flush with the body of the case so it creates a noticeable hump on the back of the case. There are also a bunch of those S-line TPU cases with kickstands going for pretty cheap on ebay. Sounds like you may want something a little more high quality though in which case I recommend the Seido or if you don't mind the extra bulk, the Speck case.
The one from HTC looks good but it's not out yet

I hated this case. I returned mine. It wobbles if you lay it face up on a table. I will never use a holster either.

I'm also hoping that Case-Mate will make a Pop for the One. I really like how the kickstand is flushed with the case and it can be place portrait or landscape. It looks pretty nice for the S4.

I keep looking for a kickstand case exactly like this one (super thin, adds some grip, supports both portrait and landscape use). Everything I find looks horribly thick or doesn't support both modes of use. Hope someone makes this design for the One soon...
I just ordered this one off Amazon to hold me over till get either the Seidio Surface or that yet to be release HTC one posted earlier. CoverON

So finally got it and it's a decent cheap case that was under $10. It seems to fit a tiny bit loose on the top and bottom and I seem to have a slight rise at the bottom of the hard plastic cover right below the bottom of the kickstand but it's not that bad and hardly noticeable. The power button is covered by the silicone but I tested it and my remote stills works perfect through it which surprised me. Thought I was going to have to cut a hole out. The power and volume buttons are slightly raised and make them easier to use. The charge port is cut perfectly for the charger cable to fit. The edge lip around the screen is high enough to protect the screen when laying flat.
And I don't know if it's just been because I've hardy put the phone down since I got it or the phone is a little too thin or long but my hand had been cramping. Didn't have that problem with the evo. I figured I just had to get use to it. I think though that maybe the one was too thin and adding some thickness feels a little better in the hand. Wonder if other people have dealt with this issue. Anyway here are some pics.

I have it and it's the only case I have for the One. I LOVE it. Perfect size cut outs for the power button, headphone port and usb port. Great protection and the volume buttons are easier to press blindly. The one thing that would make it better is if the stand could be used in portrait mode as well.
