Has anyone else had quality problems with this case? Had this about 2 weeks now and it's been in my pocket on its own with nothing else and the corners have broken off and now there is a massive crack along the back of the case. Not what I expected from a piece of official kit, would not recommend anyone buying this item at all. See photos

Contacted sony and was told I contacted the wrong people as is comes under camcorder and cameras not mobile phones and accessories? So now I have to contact them yet again to explain.

I had the same thing happen. I didn't even carry mine in my pocket, and yet I had a corner break off within two weeks of getting it. I basically decided that this case is a piece of junk. I was also expecting better quality from an OEM case. I ended up getting this one... http://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-Fash...kaging/dp/B00IHT4DQS/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top . It doesn't have the lens attachment, but it's held up well for over a month.
I bought one as well and it broke after a few days of use. First it had cracks then the bottom corners broke off. Don't buy this!
Has anyone had any problems with the white case or is it just the black one?

White one is just as bad. I got one and after just few days the corners started cracking.

I got both colour
They r all the same
Cracked without colliding
And chipped off when i was pulling my z1 from pocket.
Yep its rubbish quality and always felt as though the sharp edges were scratching the Z1 upon installation or removal. So neatly cut out the attachment part and merely glued it to a TPU case, its not 100% perfect but it is better than the spring loaded jaws.

Time to get this case reviewed right?
Honestly, if i had to choose between this and the commuter i would pick this one up. Feels really solid and after a 10 mile hike at zion with some drops , it proved its point.
enjoy

Yeah, u forgot one thing though. The builtin screen protector sucks. I just took mine off yesterday and added a best skin ever screen protector with my defender case and its awesome! Perfect combination.

That happen to mine, Within in a month mine was real loose, good thing I bought it at a local att store so they replaced it, had the new one for a few months and it's not loose at all. Maybe they had defects on some.

When you say a new case, do you mean holster/case? I was walking and my holster caught something and the clip broke off. The case is also squeaky and the lip of the case is getting loose and is starting to expose the plastic edges.

Cool. I'll fire off an email to them then. I have my zoogue cases and will probably order a UAG, commuter, or ballistic to hold me over.
Are you guys taking the case on and off frequently or just naturally happens?
And by proof, is the original packaging good enough?
Yeah the corners don't have a rail like the sides to snap into. They're sending me a complete otterbox to replace mine. Maybe they have fixed the design.

Just curious. I got my SIII on the 29th and haven't bothered with a case yet. My previous phone was an archaic Motorola Razr V3m that I had for 5 years and in that time I only dropped it a couple times on the carpet, and once it hit my closet door track which did put a ding on it. I'm thinking of just forgoing a case.
Only have ghost armor in mine. No hard case.
Dropped quite a few times. Usually just the battery case pops off in the harder falls. One fall left an slight dent that I didn't even notice till later.
Have dropped on sides and front. No screen cracks yet. No scratches...only because of the skin that covers the full body.

Never bother with cases, bulky, ugly and unpractical. Had everything from a Nokia to iPhone 4s. Dropped all at least once when getting out of the car with my good luck none ever broke just a chip lol. However a screen protector is a must for resale value, most people don't care about the back.

I've just recently noticed that they're 3 dark spots behind the glass myself. I only noticed it while I was flashing a ROM and it got stuck on just a black screen but was still illuminated. Wonder what that can be. I haven't dropped this phone that i can recall.
As far as cases go, I normally don't buy them but i do have a TPU case for this phone that i put on every now and then

This was a common issue with the t989(s2) right out of the box it's a defect call T-Mobile and get a free warranty replacement. Probably shouldn't mention the drop although pretty sure that has nothing to do with it as I'm on my second s3 and they have both had dark spots. It took me three tries to get a perfect s2

Yeah I plan on keeping mine for a while at least when my manufactures warranty is coming to an end I'll have a legit reason to get a brand new/refurb phone.
Yea those dark spots were bad on the t989 actually very bad. The gs3 is a long way from that but this is definitely the result of their amoled screen
I'm using a D30 case from T-Mobile but I have never dropped my phone, I rarely leave it out unless it's on the charger when I'm in bed. I don't get how people don't protect their devices in some way.
The glass of this phone seems to cracked too easily, so I bought a case for this phone. This is the first phone I ever feel that need a case. I had the galaxy s and the iphone 4 and both were never in a case.

I bought the GS3 at full price no contract or upgrade, I'm not trying to tell anyone how to take care of their things but if anyone is willing to just throw away 650$ because not having a case on their device is restricting then my hands are willing to catch it lol.

Hi all.
My wife has a note 2 and the screen got cracked (not the digitiser) Not insured and I wasn't about to pay £289 cheeky gits lol.
I got a replacement screen and followed a youtube tutorial on how to replace.
I got the glass off fine and have put the screen on but keep getting an air bubble appear. I've tried different adhesives and still the same... Has anyone else come across this or is anyone able to shed some light on a solution.
Thanks for your time.
And yes I made it kind of hybrid with a black home button... Completely by mistake ha ha (when ordering make sure you get the right colour... Duh)
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium
Yes, there's a solution. Spend millions on a specially designed cleanroom and laminating equipment.
If you can't manage that, your choice are:
a) Live with the bubble
b) Spend the $289 for a proper sealed unit
Sorry dude.
Thanks for the sarcasm... That really helped.
For anyone that might be interested. I found the solution.
The sides require more clearance. So I put more tape on the sides and that has got it sorted.
Easy after all that messing!

How is the quality? Is viewing experience same or are there changes on colors/brightness etc.?
you can try special UV glue for phone digitizers you can find it on ebay. but than you also need strong UV lamp. check some youtube video =)
From what I can tell in comparison to my s4 the quality is very good hardly noticeable... Very happy

I've read a few comments that suggested removing the protective film on the lens of the note 3. I have tried to remove it on my T-Mobile Note 3 and I cannot so I'm thinking that it might not be present. I can't even see or detect one at all and I am scared that I might scratch the lens if I keep trying. Have any owners of the T Mobile Note 3 successfully removed a protective film from their camera lens?
there was a protector on my voda note 3
Is it noticeable? My lens seems crystal clear and I cannot see or feel the edges of any material over the lens. Maybe it's only on certain carrier versions?

Fellow T-Mobile N3 owner here. Mine came with a protective film, and I'm gonna hazard a guess that your unit simply didn't come with it.
The film is not completely transparent, nor Space Age-thin, and you'd see: A) a small circle cut in the center of the film through which light could enter the lens uninhibited; and B) a semi-circle of plastic dangling off one of the edges to allow for easy removal -- it's very noticeable upon close examination.
I myself ripped it off after a few days, but now I'm wondering whether I should have left it on. Better safe than sorry, and all that.

I have a T-Mobile note 3, I had two, both didnt come with a plastic.
I'm really surprised that I haven't seen anyone mention anything about this fantastic case!!
I've had one, maybe two, of these cases previously for other phones. It was a few years back, and don't really remember how I liked them. But, they have been selling them for years now, and for most major phones, so I figure they were doing well. I had been through page after page looking for a case that caught my eye. I never could really find anything that suited me, and was about to settle on the official Google (non-flip) case. Somehow, I came upon the Incipio website and found the dual pro. Went ahead and took the plunge on the blue/dark grey version.. I COULD'NT BE HAPPIER!!
Seriously, this has to be one of the best three cases out for this phone; and, in my opinion, it is the best one out. I also have the .13mm Mime glass screen protector; it fits like a charm and has no peeling issues. The "lip" of the inner silicone part of the case actually goes over the edges of the screen protector. Almost as to "protect" it from chipping/peeling.
Does anyone else have this case? If so, what do you think about it? I might can find a camera to put some pictures up if anyone is interested.
