Official flip case with official mesh case combined? - Galaxy S III Accessories

I really like the official flip case, apart from..
1. No magnetic close on the flap
2. Gives little protection from drops
To address my second concern I am thinking of using the official vent/mesh case in conjunction with the official flip case.
Has anyone tried this combination yet? If so does it work/look ok?
Alternatively can anyone recommend an alternative book flip case. Ideally I would like a magnetic close, genuine leather, some drop protection & stylish looks. I know I'm asking a lot but I don't want to settle for anything less.
Thanks for reading, I look forward to all feedback.
Oliver
(EDIT) had a reply saying the official case combination don't work together. Alternative suggestions very welcome now. I forgot to say I have a white s3 and I'm looking for a matching white case that opens like a book (like the official one but with more protection).

i too am interested in using mesh case with official flip cover.
hope someone could try it.
(i recommend you zenus case or sgp cases or hoco cases as an alternative cover).

Nope, doesn't fit. Flip case is too thick and mesh won't clip on.

Ok thanks, I won't be buying either then. Going to look at the alternative suggestions in the first reply. Any more alternative suggestions anyone?

So many cases flip down but none flip up?

I looking at leather flip cases...but i want one that flips up...it jus seems more natural and convenient. Is there a reason why every flip case i have searches through online like 50...on ebay and amazon all flip down?
Anyone find a flip up?
or one without that buckle belt.....seems half pointless...its not going to open by itself on a table or in your pocket without it. And when/if you drop it 90% you would of unfastened it already.
And where about on the phone is the compass located...and where do these flip covers normally have the magnet...on the buckle bit on the bit the buckle attaches to...worrying about the compass
I have seen some but dont remember where. They flip down because otherwise they will cover the camera..

nice point
terrapin case at amazon is quite a nice case . it has a double crease that let you fold right back as to not cover camera. and less than a tenner. this was my first case for my sgs2 but decided to go for screen protector and case mate tough as found the flip a bit annoying due to the size. now looking for an upgrade for the casemate tough now as i keep getting echos. as soon as i take the case of it stops? bit strange. but i am using the terrapin again until i find another.
I've got a Tuff-Luv from Amazon.

It's a nice cases, it does the job pretty nicely, and the phone is really well protected against shocks. Have a look on a youtube demonstration .... It's a nice stunt party ;-)

Are the close clips magnetic? Always weary of magnetic cases, while some people say they're safe, I'm not willing to proove them right...

Nope, those clip are not magnetic. It's mechanic. I don't know the term in english. (in french, it is "bouton pression") google translation says "snap"...
Hope it helps
If you have a flip case does that mean i shouldn't bother with a screen protector...i'm sure the gorilla glass will take care of the rest
Flipups will be found in your local market phone traders stall .

What about the headphone jack??
If the case flips up and you have a headphone connected, don't you have to disconnect the headphone before you flip up the case!?
Just my five cents!

Galaxy nexus multiple cases

I generally like to have multiple cases for my phones. I have bought a couple of cases already without having the phone and would like to know which one you guys think is the best. These are the cases I have bought:

I havent heard many good things about the popcase that it may not provide enough protection. It looks cool though. I have the toughcase but its a dust magnet for starters and the silicone also gets in the way of my screen protector (zagg) at the corners. I have a diztronic tpu case and i like the fit of it better and its thin enough to not be too noticeable. So far i like it best but im still waiting for something better....like otterbox?
Yes, I can not wait for the otterbox. I also found a case for other phones called Sillicrylic (I think thats how you spell it) and that looks like an awesome case!
i think nude is better!
Hi, before I get my SGN i had a Desire HD with PoP case !
And I was very satisfied with it
Thank you, I just noticed that one of the ebay links is actually 7 cases, which is awesome so I can switch it out. I will let you guys know which one is best when I get them.

I have this one, and for £1.89 I think it is pretty fantastic. Looks and feels great!
Nay to all of the above
Why hide the Google design. If you look at the use of the phone, the corners are the most hit, so a bumper design is the best. the cases in this post like others I've found are thick and bulky for no real benefit.
iPhone is the best example of what we need.
"Can't paste the link as I'm too new but refer to Ebay "iPhone 4S bumper"
We need to push this design before making out pockets bulk up...

I have a case obsession as well and have many for the Gnex. My latest is the otterbox commuter, which I really love - though its noteworthy that many people do not like this case. A good one as well is the Trident Agesis - I am waiting for this one to be release at the end of Feb.

Pouch that will accommodate Rock Quicksand case?

Hi guys,
Just wondering if any of you using a Rock Quicksand case with your S3 have found a leather pouch that the duo will fit in?
I was thinking of buying the official case and hoping it will stretch, but any advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Chris

Simply because the reviewer said it was loose, it is. Probably enough to get the phone+Rock on with a bit of work. Accepts mine no problem with a flip cover, which has a wider case back and the front flap. Not bad quality either.
Thanks for the reply! In the end, I took a chance and ordered the genuine Samsung Galaxy Note pouch which fits the combo perfectly.
Absolutely delighted.

You guys mind taking some shots of the S3 in note's pouch? I wanna see how snugly it fits into the pouch, and how easy it will be to take out.
I'm using the rock quicksand as well and I have been looking for comfort fit neoprene pouch, nothing skin tight.
Thanks!
Here you go!
The phone fits firmly in the note case but is also extremely easy to remove - if you squeeze the edges of the pouch together, the phone slips out freely.
Couldn't ask for more!

Nice! but it looks like it's made of leather (or faux leather). what's the inside like? same material? suede? I'm just paranoid of how it may scratch my screen. hence I've been looking for neoprene materials all these while. my nillkin protector is dry application hence doesn't cover everything. you reckon it'll be safe from scratches?
Looks like they don't have it locally though. Gonna need to order online....

The inside is a suede type material so shouldn't scratch the phone.

Youre worried about the 2 millimeter space around the screen protector that is of no actual use anyway? (which is also made of gorilla glass 2 and I have to assume it can withstand some soft suede)

I think I'm going to get the Krussell Luna 4XL pouch. I already have a KaysCase and I think the 3XL pouch would fit my phone only but with the case on it I think the 4XL would be a better fit.
http://www.amazon.com/Krusell-Premium-Leather-Samsung-SmartPhones/dp/B006VAMZLA/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1341019454&sr=1-1&keywords=krusell+luna+4xl
Hi,
any experience with the Luna 4XL yet? Got a Quicksand merely out of curiosity and I am so much impressed of the haptics it adds, don't want to return it. Still, more important to me is a pouch that protects the phone, especially the screen when it's in my pocket, laptop case, backpack, etc.
I hab pretty good experiences, case-wise with the Noreve on my HD2, but the S3 with the Quicksand so far did not fit into any of the pouches I tried. Placed an order for the Krusell, even though the Quicksand is thicker than the specs for the Luna are (10.8 vs 10 mm). We'll see how it fits...

Flip case that is detachable?

Im looking for a flip case where you can detach the 'flip' part of the case. At the moment im using the Samsung Flip case (instead of a screen protector) within a cheap TPU case that has a kickstand. Im finding the camera tricky to use with the flip part of the case getting in the way, so it would be good if i could take it off when needed, then reattach it. :good:
I've done a DIY mod on the flip case - cut off the 'flip' part and stuck it to the TPU with velcro - as you could imagine its far from perfect...
I've been searching for a while but nothing so far.....
Well here's something the case makers seriously have to do.
Imagine something as convenient as the Microsoft tablet detachable keyboard?! But a detachable flip.
I would buy one without thinking twice.

Looks like a practical solution.
However it has a magnetic clasp. If I understood correctly, this is bad for the Note, because it interacts with the digitiser ?

Is there any flip cover that only the front one like apple ipad one? So could use any hardcase...
Thanks for the input.
The Mercury colour case looks good, i'll bear it in mind. There a couple of youtube vids knocking about so i'll do some more research.
As usual, you need a woolly coat to get the things you want...
Detachable front cover case for the iPhone A larger case for the Note would work well.

There must be a demand for such a case? I can't be the only one who prefers not to use screen protectors, but finds a flip case gets in the way of using the phone, especially the camera!?
The search continues....
Edit; Found another one;
Luxury window flip case- not sure where the 'luxury' element of the case comes in as to be fair, it looks cheap and nasty!
maybe you can try modding one using valcro

I have one of these : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AIO-BLACK..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item2570d08d2f
You can remove the phone relatively easy when you need to use the camera, is a bit fiddly to get to the stylus (but I have large fingers)
the magnetic clasp locks around the rear of the case/phone so does not affect the digitizer.
Hope this helps
I was also looking for a detachable flip casing .....the normal flip casing is uncomfortable feels weird when capturing pictures & recording videos
I bought a blue flip case says official from amazon, it was fine for the first month, but after that, I just took it off, its so uncomfortable to use. any suggestions for some others

I'm using the black flip case from OnePlus.
I think it's a really nice case. The material is nice and smooth to the touch, it feels very premium in my opinion. It's quite thin, so it doesn't add a lot of bulk to the phone. The cover closes completely, and also folds back completely. All four sides are exposed, but I don't really see it as a drawback at all. I'm perfectly happy with this case.
Are there any flip cases besides the original one, with automatic screen on/off?
