yes ... but .. I heard it could cause problems

I have the same case, but in black. It works well to protect the phone. The bundled screen protector is crap though

Silicon case & wifi/gps-reception
I use a much thicker rubber case, which adds more grip to the smooth aluminium and never experienced any issiues.
but I found this Post/Thread and can confirm that the Wifi and/or GPS reception is better without any case!

(Last video @bottom shows a comparsion of signal reception with & without case)

Really? like what?

Hi!
This case is good, I had a bag like case with aluminum protection in it, but after a while It's skin damaged and aluminum makes my phone scratchy!
Now I use such the first post cover + a screen protector!
Sorry for very bad English!

I have the feeling that my silicone case messes GPS signal

Rear case imperfection?

Has anyone here noticed a slight hump on the rear case it location is central on the spine about 2 thirds of the way down. It is a above a recess on the inside of the case which accommodates the plastic retaining lug for the SIM card. Its very minor, I only noticed it when I was rubbing my finger over the case, I just wanted to check with other people to eliminate the possibility its a defect on mine.
Other than this its the best smart-phone I have ever used, well worth the wait as I am a Handtec customer.
Thanks for checking
Have it too, but it is really difficult to spot.
I cannot see it with my eyes, basically only feel and you have to be very careful to notice it even then.
I can't feel or see this if it is there.
only found it because you made me search for it
wish i didnt read this thread. now im going to look for it, find it, and be displeased by it.
Not on mine...
i noticed it the other day as well
it is there but I don`t care.

neither do I, as other people have said it very very minor.
It's a great handset I'm very happy with it and will be more happy when the official screen protectors are available.
if it wasn't there the cover would have to be a couple of mm thicker to accommodate the recess on the inside to clear the plastic lug. I think, on reflection, that this was a good idea on HTCs part.

Maybe you have particularly fat SIM cards?

Thought you guys might be interested...
Any videos or pictures of these used on the device? Would love to get one but I have no idea how it looks/what thickness it adds, etc.
Thanks for the links!
I think it will be bad for our gps
Would like to hear from someone who has already purchased one of these before i get one,look nice though.
expensive
check dealextreme/focalprice.com that you probably get lower prices
search for i9100, instead of galaxy s II

I would strongly recommend to think about how hot our phone is in games like Asphalt 6 and imagine how hot it will be if u use metal cover. Don't get you fingers burned.

I just ordered one. It seems like a decent alternative while we wait to see if the LG hardshell case ever materializes.
I've had mybat screen protectors before for my other phone, and honestly they seem like another generic brand to me.

Doesn't fit the phone and falls apart.

Two major problems:
1. It's a snap case which takes the absolute least amount of force possible to unsnap. It was sold as a hardshell case... not a snap together pos case.
2. It will not "snap together" with my glass screen protector. (I have not tried to install the case without it).

do u know any waterproof cases for 1+3t?

really need a waterproof case or anything else that can make my phone waterproof..
any ideas???
There is none, but our phone is waterproof to a certain extent as seen in YouTube videos.

It's a waterproof bag
Just buy a large sized condom and apply on it.. then use some glue to close the open side...
100% water proof, this is rated as this are sold to be leak proof.. just beware it might be slippery for first few days due to the lubrication on it

Quick Photos... iPulse Journal S8+ Case

Ok, so I picked up the iPulse case on Amazon. Most of the time my phone is bare or with a non-flip case but when I travel or have a business meeting, I dress it up a bit and I can leave my wallet at home. I really hate PU Leather and wanted something that acted like a stand too. Am I asking too much? Yes... but I did find ALMOST everything I wanted in this case.
The case holds up to 3 cards (or 3 cards and a license like I did). The feel is totally premium.
The case that holds the phone is surprisingly soft and the cut outs are perfect. Buttons on the left are easy to get to. There is enough room in the middle to get to them.
I have 2 gripes. One, the pocket is supposed to hold paper cash BUT its just barely small. As a result, its kinda useless. The other is that I wish the corners were rounded more because it feels a little bulky and that would help tons. It is totally worth the price though. Link to it is here.
