Any non leather cases? - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Leather has a nasty feeling to me, especially when it is cheap leather.
I cannot believe there is not some sort of padded case, or silicone...SOMETHING other than leather. I find it hard to believe all there is is cheap bulky leather cases for the Infinity.
Please link to all non leather cases for those of us that don't like leather cases.

This is one of my favorite case,it was great when i had my Galaxy Tab 10.1

I bought this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004T655OW/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00
It's nothing exciting, but it's not leather, and it has a pocket for SD cards and screen wipes.

I use the ballistic sg case. My wife uses the incipio silicryllic case.

I bought the incipio Aoba but returned it immediately because you couldn't even press the buttons through the case, it was rock hard
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0089Q83SS/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00
Bought the incipio silicrylic after that and love it. It has a soft gel case that's easy to push the buttons but also has a hard shell that protects each of the corners.

You try to find it on ebay, I think you 'll find a variety of rubber case for your device and the price is quite affordable

I bought a $4 silicone case from amazon that seems to be working quite well. It doesnt quite fit as snug as I'd like though, but it keeps the profile small and its easy to get out of my pocket.
Case
Yeah..i think silicon case is better..
I am now using a soft pouch, I think it's better than a silicone case because it protects also the screen and it's not "sticky" like silicone cases are (I always found difficult to put the phone into the jeans' pocket when I am sitting if I use a TPU case)... You could try a pouch and see if you like it
Thanks for the ideas on cases. I have thought about getting one but never sure which are cheap and rip easy or whatnot.

How fat is it? I have a rubber case also but I don't consider it fat. I have not seen any case for this phone also.

I bought a $7 silicone case from my local ATT store and this thing is the best. It fits nice and snug, and is easy to remove if need be. Of course, I wear carpenter jeans so the slight stickiness doesn't bother me. AFAIK tho, I believe they stopped selling it in my area so that may be the case everywhere.
These three cases look nice! Does anyone have them? Which is best?

I have black rubber case. I love it.

Good Mytouch 4G case

So currently I have a cheap case I bought on ebay and it's messing up my invisibleshield on the sides. Whenever I grip the sides it pushes up against the shield and dust gets in there.
I'm considering buying a new case but I'm not sure what one to get so it won't mess up the shield. Anyone have any ideas? I was thinking the tpu case but I'm not sure. What do you guys think?

Hands down the best cases you can get for your phone at the TPU fusion cases. All TPU cases are great, but the TPU fusion just has a slightly higher level of detail.
There is a thread in this section about the TPU fusion cases that also has an online coupon code for like 10% off their already really cheap price.
I would link but I'm feeling lazy today. Happy hunting

I agree! Best case I've used so far (and I've used silicone, tpu, trident cyclops, and the aegis). Thing rocks and really does protect

Used to have more colors but now only have black, clear and red.
Act quick!
I originally bought the black gel skin from T-Mobile when I bought my phone. It was a lint magnet, though, and it added a significant amount of bulk to the phone. So I ended up buying a translucent smoke colored TPU case, OEM HTC variety, from Amazon. It's nice, feels good, looks good, has cutouts for all the buttons (so they aren't hard to press like some TPU cases) and doesn't add a huge amount of bulk to the phone, while also making it easier to hold onto.
I have used the Otterbox Commuter and the TPU Fusion case. I switch between the two. Plus they both protect the phone well and fit inside of my Seidio holster.

Is the Seidio holster you're using the standard one for the MT4G? Or did you have to use a larger size? I'm looking for a good case to replace the Seidio one I'm currently using, but I like the design of the Seidio holster...

As previously stated, the trident case is very good, but if your not willing to spend the money you can go for the TPU fusion. Its cheaper, and still has a modern look to it.

lol this seems like itll feel weird, especially in the pocket
the TPU Fusion case is the best ive seen..
the regular silicone cases are nice too but the rubber is so grip-y that its hard to pull the phone out of the pocket lol
The trident case looks great I'm going to order it.
my sister has the TPU case and i think im going to pick one up they look great and feel good in the hands.

It's not so much a case IMO but more of a glove. The phone remains extremely slim still and its pretty stiff.

Try the Otterbox Commuter case. It's fairly cheap for a otterbox, and it looks like it'd be a good case that would work well with invisishield,

[Q] Rubber sort of case, non-stick material?

Hi,
My friend showed me his iPhone case, and it was some sort of hard-ish rubbery clear stuff that doesn't get caught when you slip it into your pocket, etc.
I can't remember the name of the material, but it felt really nice and I really hope there is a version of it for the sgs2. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
The sticky, "traditional" rubber material is silicone, AFAIK.
The "modern", non-sticky material is called TPU, an abbreviation for Thermoplastic polyurethane.
You should find plenty of those cases on eBay or other platforms.

Looks nice, But doesn't that make your slim SGS2 a bit thick ?
I recommend the Incipio NGP. One of the most solid cases I've ever used and not overpriced.
+1 for the Incipio NGP
Try this, very good case for S2
http://www.momax.net/en/Product_Show.aspx?ID=1475&T=1
My second case was a white TPU case on my black phone, looked really good but after a while started turning blue from the dye in my jeans haha. So I bought another cheap TPU case from amazon, this time a clear but smokey black, looked really nice on the phone and didn't change colour.
The material I was thinking of was polycarbonate. I could only find a few that apparently use the material, and ended up buying an SGP case (on ebay here). I think its also available at www.sgpstore.com, because the box it came in had that link on it.
It's quite durable imo, nice and thin, doesn't take away from the sexiness of the sgs2. Overall it is one of the better cases I have bought.
Edit: it looks like it's just a cheap chinese rip-off of the sgp ultra-thin case. Found it cheaper here. Oh well, I'm happy to pay $5 extra if it comes in 2 days

Best TPU style case?

Looking for the thinnest and best fitting TPU style case. So far, I know of the Incipio NGP, Diztronic and Cruzerlite. What do you guys recommend?

I'm using the Diztronic matte blue one. Fits really well and looks great, much better than the cheapo one I picked up on ebay :silly:
Hasn't anyone used all 3 of the cases I listed above for their S3 and can compare? Wondering which one's the thinnest.
In have the diztronic matte black and it's great. Its not too thick and has a decent grip to it. Some have said the cruzerlite tpu cases have a ribed side for grip.
+1 For Diztronic matte black. Thin, light, good fit, easy to remove, no finger prints, slides easily in and out pockets, provides "adequate" protection of all 4 side edges given its thickness and a light lid-bumper around the front edges of the screen helps keep the screen from touching flat surfaces when the SGS3 is placed face-down. Btw... it also looks good.
I have all 3 and I must say the THINNEST hands down is none of the above. Samsung actually makes the thinnest TPU case and also while its the thinnest it has covered flaps for the 3.5mm headphone jack and the micro usb charging port! While I love my clear matte back Diztronic case the Samsung one has it beat in terms of sheer thinness. It also has the least amount of lip so it doesn't lift the edges of a Zagg or other full screen protector. Just my 2 cents.

The Body Glove tpu case is actually really thin on my S3 and its 20 bucks on Smartphonepedia.com. I hope this helps

I find it lame that people review cases and use the terms "thin" and "slim" in term reviews... These terms are totally useless to me as they can mean drastically different things to different people. When I do case reviews I try to include measurements whenever possible.
Example, post #4 of my Igadgitz TPU case review:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762539
I think if more an more people start doing this, everyone will be better off.

Ended up ordering the Cruzerlite matte clear one and it should be here tomorrow. I'll probably end up trying out the Incipio translucent mercury too. I hear a lot of good things about Diztronic but not a fan of their color choices.

When you get both, will you perhaps do a side by side review of them for us? I like to hear what other people think about our stuff and how it stacks up against other cases.

Will do.
The Mercury Pearl is by far the best fitting and looking TPU for the SGS3.
IMHO, YMMV...
i have a diztronic and the cruizerlite case. i like the cruizerlite better but thats mainly because it has the cool design all over it. the diz is just a plain cae. the diz is thinner than the cruizer but the cruizer has the ribbed sides so it grips better. they both fit about the same. the ridge on the front that touched the screen is a little thicker on the cruizer. i'd recommend either to anyone!

not splashproof but very thin..
I really like my mercury translucent Incipio NGP case. Only downside is that the covered power button is a little harder to click.
really like my matte black ditztronic
I want to try a Diztronic case but I don't like the color choices for my white S3.

D3o cases are junk. Especially the ones with the softish plastic backing. The all black one piece is alright,but still junk.
The ones with the colored plastic backing are prone to cracking just be taking off the case. Big no-no since I wash my case periodically.
On top of that, the 3.5mm slot is too small. Only slim jacks fit while the d3o case is on. I'm not willing to change my Sennheisers just because design flaws of the case.
Don't forget how much force it takes to push the power button. Over time,this can damage the power button by recessing it in. I switched to the white body glove. Its properly designed and does what I need it do.

i have a case similar to this, one of the amazon variants.
any who i really like the design, especially the thick corners which is what many times takes the impact of the drop. i have not had problems with screen bubbling up either
I purchased the white body glove case from tmobile store and its doing the job. I've dropped the phones a couple of times already, and its still doesnt show any scratches unless your eyeball is touching the case.
I got one from moster accessory website called the black transfusion hard cover case an I really like it as my second case. My first case was the D30, but the transfusion case was more cheaper than the d30.

I came upon an older Targus holster for Palm PDAs back from 2000. Its got that old brown leather look with a velcro snap and velour interior padding. Enough room for my Herc wrapped in its TPU.
