I just want something I can slip the phone into to keep it from getting scratched while in my pocket.
I'm looking for something like this, just in cloth:
SPIGEN SGP Leather Pouch Crumena for Samsung Galaxy SIII
I would prefer to have a notch/hole for the LED as well as the speaker.

Case-Mate "Pop" case or "Tough Case?"(& do they come with a screen protector ?
Simple questions here:
What is the diff b/w a Pop Case and a Tough Case? Will the Pop case protect the Nexus if it falls on the ground as well as the Tough Case?
case-mate always includes a screen protector....is there one included with these cases??

They have stopped including the screen protector or at least it was not included with the tough case.
The pop has a less nice 'feel' to it for my tastes, so I would recommend the tough between the two.
I definitely didn't get a screen protector with my tough case but I bought an sgp flex and the edges of the screen protector are nicely covered by the case.

I didn't get a screen protector with my toughcase. I have a Zagg though, but I'm a little annoyed that the silicone part of the toughcase has the tendency to push at the edge of the Zagg at the bottom corners. I guess this is because the Zagg doesn't fit completely from edge to edge. I got it centered as best I could and I consider myself decently skilled at applying these things. Oh and the toughcase silicone is a dust magnet.
Do all silicon cases when you put it in your pocket the screen collects a lot more dust and lint around the phone where the case meets the bezel?
I got this case from Verizon wireless, i think it the high gloss one.
I love the case because it fits perfectly doesn't make the phone too big. While not sure how well it will protect if i drop it, the biggest plus is, it gives me a better grip and does not slide out of hand so i will not drop it.
Every time I pull the phone out of pocket has tons of dust and lint and so hard to clean without taking the case off.
So I am curious anyone have any recommendations for a similar silicon case that will not attract all that dust while in the pocket?
Thanks
I have the same case and don't really have an issue. Maybe you should put a canned air in your other pocket to blow it off each time you pull it out. ^_^

I have a S-line TPU case from ebay, I find a lot of dust and fluff sticking to the edges in my pocket, but it doesn't bother me, maybe I just have really dirty pockets!
Yeah, I get a lot of dust and lint in there too. I use the amzer case with the Verizon screen protectors.

Interesting thing is if I go naked with nexus it does not attract much dust.
Something to do with the silicon.

Should avoid silicone cases. They are dust magnets and will start stretching soon. Tpu's are way better and cost the same.

Thanks any recommendation which one?
I never heard of TPU that is new to me. What does that stand for?
Maybe I will return this case since it was $24.99
TPU wikipedia link, fantastic material! Plenty of cases on eBay for only a few pounds!

Very much so. Silicone is always a lint magnet especially if you pocket your phone.
I got myself the Barely There Case in black by Case-Mate. Was about to get the Otterbox Commuter but was worried that it would make the phone too big to hold with one hand.
Thanks everyone I went for one of the TPU forgot name starts with a D, rev 3..for I think $10 off amazon.
Will return this one at verizon once I get it
I use the Verizon silicon case too and found the same issue. Thats why I empty out my jacket's pocket completely before putting my phone in.
All the Same
I find the TPU cases to be nearly as good at concentrating dust on screens as silicone. It seems more a function of the protective lip protruding around the edge of the screen than the material it's made of. A dirty phone is just the price one pays for trying to protect it.
is there any good slim cases and not slippery back for galaxy note ?
dont want bulky but still want some protection ..
I have the elago G4 Slim Fit Case on my note atm, and I'm liking it so far. Not much in the way of protection, but it isn't slippery and the note + case still fits in my pockets.
One thing I would say though...it's a pain in the ^$#%#$% to get off once you get it on.

I use this very slim case that ONLY offers scratch protection. Very good to hold and has a matte finish so no finger prints.
Have a look at my review thread,

Slim, form fitting "case".
I like both the Incipio Feather UltraLight Hard Case (although it might snap/break as some have mentioned) and the Diztronic High Gloss Translucent Grey.
The Diztronic High Gloss is great, because it slides out of where ever you have it, mine is usually in my pocket and it doesn't pick up link. It's rather sticky and grippy, in a good way, doesn't feel like it will slip out of you hands or lose grip of the phone. It's very slim, so the phones slender sexy lines are kept and it shows through the semi see through material.
Both are very minimalist, the TPU protects slightly more, since it's a tad thicker, bouncy and raises above the screen face some.
That's IHMO, YMMV.

+1 for elago slim... I had a 4ft drop the other day with it on, and my note came out scratch free because it landed right on the corner of the case (whew).... using the elag + sgp protector and liking the setup so far.

I just ordered this one:
https://www.speckproducts.com/smartphone-cases/samsung/fitted-for-samsung-galaxy-note.html
I will let you know how I like it when I get it next week. The Speck Fitted cases my wife has used on her iPhone 4 and 4s have been very durable and given great protection.
Just ordered an X during the sale yesterday to replace my S3.. My S3 had an Otterbox defender which I really liked- particularly the deep bezel around the screen. Can someone recommend a case or bumper that has that same deep bezel in addition to the Otterbox?
Thanks
I have the ballistic SG maxx case, nice case with deep bezel and good corner protection.

I actually hated the Ballistic SG Maxx. The silicone seems too flimsy and the port covers are cheap. I'm afraid of the headphone port cover has a tab that protrudes into the jack. Same thing goes for the USB port. It feels as if the USB port is going to break.
I call it flimsy because my wife has the normal Ballistic SG for the LG an the bottom rim that goes around the USB cover is actually solid and not flimsy at all. If anything, get the regular SG because I'm returning my this weekend.
As for now, i use an Otterbox Commuter because I hate the built in screen protector of the Defender. Debris always ends up behind the screen protector on my iPad.
I'm currently in the process of getting a glass screen protector and want it installed with my Commuter.

Mine doesn't have port covers it must be the regular SG case. My other cases are tpu, supcase, and trident krakken for extra protection. I keep going back to ballistic SG for daily use and hate the supcase.

For most of us, the holy grail would be to protect our shiny and expensive new toys without spoiling the looks.Some swear that going naked is the only way,eschewing protection for aesthetics, while others insist on building portable nuclear bunkers around their devices.
My solution is below.Glass protector and transparent case, in my opinion it looks 99% as good as a naked S8+.
The Zoto case is quite tight and needs precise alignment of the glass protector, I also had to stretch the corners slightly by placing it in hot water and then pulling at the corners.The Olixar case fits without any adjustments, but I found it a bit loose.

I don't like TPU cases. They feel sticky, retain oils, and quickly turn yellow.
A well made leather case (not wallet) is my preference. Feels great in the hand, develops a cool patina, and won't look gross if a little moisture gets trapped behind it.

There is that, but a little wipe and a dunk in soapy water now and again.
Im using a Spigen tough armor. Has a few scuff marks from drops and took off case recently and no damage what so ever. Must admit phone looks beautiful and feels great naked.
But its hard not puting my case back on for protection.
One thing is the look, but the feel is something else. After having the case on for two weeks, then take it out and use your phone without case and feel the difference. It's such a luxurious feeling you don't get with a case on
