Need something to hold you over til otterbox cases are released? - Galaxy S III Accessories

This is a case my gf bought from my local mall. She paid $24.99 but there cheaper on ebay. Its kind of like a defender series knock off with no built in screen protector. She has a white visor screen guard. Its a nice case fits tight. You can tell that if you had to remove the rubber alot it would probally get lose after a while. Im thinkin about the all black one for my pebble blue. Heres an ebay link http://www.ebay.com/itm/HYBRID-HARD...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item4ab8fde780

Agreed. I'm surprised these haven't crept their way into a Dollar Tree yet, there's no way in hell I'd spend more than $5 on something like this.

Otterbox case for lg p930

Anyone know if there will be one, as a guy at the bell store said that there is one. However I havnt seen anything on the web.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA App
There isn't one and it is highly unlikely that there will be.
Ballistic makes a nice case for it.

I got it right off, and love having it. Easier to grip the phone, and you have the four ball corners for impacts (I drop my phone a lot )
Good accessory to have
Yeah, I've had this for a few months, it is a good case, what I don't like is its attraction to hair/fuzz/dust/pocket lint.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA
How much thicker & wider does the Ballistic case make the phone?
It's fairly significant.
Sent from my LG-P930 using pt
i have dropped my phone at least 20' down an elevator shaft just recently
without a problem. the ballistic case is big but is awesome
I've ordered a black Ballistic SG case for my new P930 =)
Good choice.

Apparently they won't have it instock for 7 - 10 days, so I've ordered the HC version instead.
I just ordered mine off Ebay for like 18 bucks brand new.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA
Mine was $19.99 + 4$ shipping off eBay, "seller refurbished", just comes in generic packaging I think.
Do the ballistic cases fit the thicker profile when using an extended capacity battery?
No, it wouldn't, because the IRS made for the phone without ABC extended battery, and if the extended battery is double the size like I've heard, than it won't.

Pretty nice looking cases. Curious to see what they are going to come out with.
I had one of their cases back when I had an iPhone 4 and loved the case. They are a bit pricey but made with real carbon fiber and high end feel to them.
A few days ago they released a full image on their facebook page, I'm pumped for it
That's sessy!

These are very stylish cases but as mentioned $100+ dollars for a case is absurd.
Deff got my attetion.. That is nice... Hmm..
Carbon fiber is not cheap. I race rc cars and they like to get a good amount extra for parts done in carbon.. 100$ is steep maybe in the 50-70$ range would be easier to swallow
Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk 2
Get what you pay for. That case is sick and I think I want it!
I'd buy it.
$50 ill buy it right away. A penny more and i aint buying.
Very nice, but too expensive for my taste. The carbon fiber just appears to be an insert, so it doesn't add much to the case structurally, just aesthetics. It is a beautiful case though!
There probably will be a cheap "replica" coming out of china soon after the original is released. Just like it happened with the iPhone version.
I'm really liking this case but looking at the iPhone versions pricing I don't think I'll ever own it
Way too expensive IMO!
Wow. Gorgeous.
I bought Otterbox.
Week later Entended battery (makes Otter case worthless)
Now, I think I would get this.
I'm so backwards.
Sent from my billion dollar GalaxiPhone S3.
As much as I'm telling myself I'd never buy a case that expensive... I keep finding myself looking at that website....

The iPhone version of the case is up to $170 on that website, so it is likely to be similar for the S3.
But the normal cases with carbon start at 20$. And the prices you mention are nickel plated etc. I dont see nickel in the renders Sorry please be relevant

Give it a shot and let us know, prob won't fit correctly or fall apart after a good drop.
Is there a fake Eclipse? I'd be up for trying that for the right price.

will wait btw, where did you buy?
haven tried this particular case before, but i've personally bought a couple of other cases from ali express. The quality varies quite a bit. Some are better, some dont really fit. The aluminium bumper i bought for myself fit like a glove, and was of pretty good quality, while a different one that i had purchased for my girlfriend didn't really fit well. Have to look at feedback and orders before ordering from there.

Top Case Makers

Out of the top makers, who do you think will or should provide a case of some sort, personally I would like a sleek Otterbox or a Ringke Fusion. By the looks of it, a Ringke is in the production. Time will tell for that. But out of all honestly, I do not think Otterbox will deliver any time soon.

I really like the UAG cases. It would be a pity if there wasn't one for the Nexus 5.
Here's the render of the Ringke Fusion for the Nexus 5 from their Amazon listing. I think it looks purdy. Tempted to pre-order it.

I go for minisuit as their accessories are not that expensive but still of good quality. I used to like otterbox though.
Anyhow, I wonder if there's a forum or a survey website which offers list of top case makers online. I think that would help thousands of users who are looking for accessories online.
Definitely UAG! Had one for GS4 it's awesome.
EDIT: I ordered a Cruzerlite case for the N5 when they had the free shipping deal and it shipped today
Running Diztronic TPU on my N4, matched well with N4's nice angular lines...so will look into their N5 offerings on amazon.
The N5 will be my first Nexus device. Is Ringke Fusion the best case protection?
I had a Samsung Smart Cover with my Note 2 and I don't want anymore something that hides the screen...
