Galaxy S4 Best case/cover Thread - Galaxy S 4 Active Accessories

I'm curious to see how everyone protects their Galaxy S4 and would love to see photos of your Galaxy S4 in your favorite or best case. Tell us why you chose the case you did, how much you paid.
I am using this case $4.99 set (with Screen Protector and 10 Pack Stylus)
http://www.eeekit.com/eeekit-for-sa...cover-3-pack-screen-protector-10-pack-stylus/

There's a thread in this very subforum about cases entitled:
S4 ACTIVE Cases & Accessories
and you'll find most all of the case discussion there. I use the Unicorn Beetle (yellow/dark grey) myself and chose it because a) it protects about as much of the GS4A as possible without getting in the way of things, and b) the yellow/dark grey color scheme is damned wicked.

Mine is white!
Mine is white and I bought a screen protector and a case for it. I wonder if I can use an external or Bluetooth keyboard for it though. Any idea guys?

Well, an external keyboard (meaning USB) would attach using a proper MHL to USB converter cable so yes that would work, and Bluetooth is wireless so the case wouldn't have anything to do with that (unless it was some kind of RF blocking thing, oddly enough), so yeah it or they should work.
You said "Mine is white" so that most likely means you're referring to the Galaxy S4 - this is the Galaxy S4 Active subforum, a different smartphone altogether (even in spite of sharing a lot of components, the one thing you won't find is a white GS4 Active).

r there any water proof case

[Q] Did someone try this case?

Heey,
I'm planning to get this case for my new SGSII, but I'm not sure about the build quality and thickness. So I was wondering if someone already have this case and maybe could write something about it.

Hi can you tell me who is making this case. i am always looking for a cool case and i love the clear back panel. can you post the name of the company . I would also like to learn more about this.
Tought bumpers were just for iphone
The case is sold in Netherlands, I don't know if you can find it somewhere else outside my country.
Here is the Ebay site: http://cgi.ebay.com/Protect-Case-Bescherm-Hoesje-Samsung-Galaxy-S2-i9100-/110693610851?_trksid=p3286.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D3%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D1005384825492923917#ht_2006wt_1139

I have also seen that MOMAX is selling them on their site. They have 4 different colour combinations, if one can call black and white colors
EDIT: Search for "Momax i Case Pro i9100". You can order direct from their shop or ebay. They are from Hong Kong so expect longer delivery.
I did not tried it but i really like his design.
I have a Momax iCase pro for my vibrant, works great, I like it!
you can get the i9100 one from diygadget.com. they also have the download jig as well.
I have the Momax i Case Pro on my previous Desire HD , quality and cut outs were very good, as its TPU, it will not attract lint as compared to silicon, the joining parts between the plastic backing and TPU is also very good. I just placed an order for my S2.
Hey did you get your momax case? I'm interested, does it fit well? also where did you order it from and how long did it take to get it?
I like this case because unlike all the scp cases, there is no antenna hole, and as i have an international version, its just an extra hole for possible damage.
thanks

[HardCase] Mini Cooper Vintage UK Flag for GSII

Hi all!
Just want to share something good: CG Mobile in collaboration with Mini has released a collection of case for our Galaxy SII and they are quite stylish!
You have 2 with the Mini's bands, and one with the UK Flag
The case is not what we call "high quality" like the others in steel, but they are slim, hard case, and easy to remove and use
I bought the one with the UK Flag, the colors are good: real red and white and matted black...let's see if the colors will stay!
They are light and really not that big (but you feel a difference in your hands ^^)
No silicone anywhere, just soft touched's plastic
The side effect is, if you have the official dock from Samsung (this one), you'll be unable to use it, like a large majority of case
I can't send you a link, just search in google, the price is about 19€
Enjoy

Now that is nice. Pre order at the moment though.
The one in the OP is £16.

The leather one with union jack stitching is very nice, will have to add it to a wishlist on amazon for the next time my current case breaks

[Q] Any good cases w/card slot on back?

I'm looking for something similar to this iPhone case but have had no luck so far.
Has anyone seen anything like this available online?

Whoa, that's a pretty cool case there. I might be interested in one like that too if they ever make one.
I haven't seen any like that but this one comes pretty close:
Yea, here's a sleek one my company makes.

That should fit the gs3 perfectly!
Sent from my MB865 using XDA App
oh... if i could only post links...
anyway, a search on google (search for "galaxy s3 card case"), shows some interesting card cases for the s3. many seem to be more of a wallet (essentially the Samsung flip cover, but with a thicker leatherette cover, and slots for cash/cards in it), that has the s3 on one side, and then money and cards on the other. Nice if you are looking for the function.. but if you want the FORM of the above image.. I got nothing.

Don't really want anything with a flip cover or made of leather. Maybe in 6 months something like this will be available.

"I am sorry but I have no word to give you at this time if and or when we will have what you are requesting.
But please go to our main page and click on FEEDBACK and make a request!
We love to hear your input! The more people who request a certain item or color the more likely it is we will consider making it!

We've had some requests already ;-)"
So maybe we can get people to request it? I'd buy a blue and black one.
Speck should make one. I know Hex has a similar style wallet case, but I don't see any cases for Samsung phones. If you really need a card slot, SGP Folio case might be good for you. http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/samsung/galaxy-s3/samsung-galaxy-s3-leather-case-folio-series.html

[TRIDEA] ALLKE SF Coating case ROCKS!

The ALLKE case from TRIDEA was delivered to me 2 days back after waiting for more than a month. I must say that the wait has been worth it.
I won't be able to link to the images so I am directly attaching them with this post.
What I like about the case :
The case fits very well and feels nice and rubbery. The design on the back increases the grip and you just don't feel like leaving the phone. It's very light and it's weight is negligible. The cutouts for the power and volume keys are perfect. All in all, its an ergonomic case that will provide excellent protection from a drop.
What I don't like about the case :
It doesn't protect the top and the bottom completely.
*I am starting to like this since it does not interfere with the outlets for the power supply or the headphone jack.
Please don't forget to hit the thanks button if this post has been helpful for you!
Do you have any photos of your phone with the case on?

Thanks for the review, I've been interested in the green on since before the s3 was released. Shame about the top and bottom though
Wow. I love the back. I think i might have to grab one. Thanks for sharing.
I have a doubt. Is this cover compatible with the screen protector from TRIDEA?
wish they had it in white with black text
Just received mine....
fast postage by the korean seller...posted on 15/10/2012 and received today in Malaysia.
It a pretty good case

I have posted pics as attachments. The only difference between the two posts is the color of the case.
I can confirm the cover is compatible with the screen protector, also from TRIDEA.

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Case Made By Samsung So Expensive?

Hey Guys,
So I've been searching around the web for a case for my Samsung Galaxy Note II and I came across the one made by Samsung. It seems to me that it's one of those style over functionality products. It's nearly $30-$40 and I'm trying to justify if it makes sense buying it.
Let me know what you guys think!

I was hoping there will be a smart case, whereby each time you flip open the case, the screen will be turned on.

Yeah its kind of like the iPad smart cover... However, less dangerous and more practical...
I found a 50% off accessory coupon code RE167858P. Treated myself to a Note II Case and a 9000MAH Battery Pack!!! $49.99 for a battery backup was a steal!!!
:highfive: :victory: :highfive:
Official accessories almost always very expensive. Companies have very high margins on them, because that's where people will look first to buy. So I would suggest to search for some alternatives from 3rd party companies.
