[Q] Leather Retail coming with extra plastic cover - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I read somewhere that if you buy a leather back cover version, you will also get a spare plastic back cover as well. I only seem to remember seeing this in one report and none of the contents lists on retailer sites mention the spare cover either.
Can anyone confirm if you do get a spare plastic back cover when buying the leather Retail version?

My Korean leather version didn't have an extra plastic back.

I hope the UK version does.
I want a plastic one, but wouldn't mind it in gold, so thinking of ordering the leather model and just use the plastic one.

somebody posted in the general section about getting a plastic cover. So i guess depends in the carriers

Loads of threads about that there.
I ordered this one from a Dutch website. I see you are not from the Netherlands, but maybe there will be some similar slip pouches in the area where you live. This on was the cheapest on that website, the other pouches were no slip-pouches and had some special front flippable cover and stuff, but cost almost twice the price.

pouches are for iphones
Not gonna use anything.
Just take a moist cloth and wipe it down (might use screencleaner).
Why should I hide this beauty when the body is designed to absorb hits and falls and stay stainless.
No way I use another crappy pouch on my phone.

Genuine Samsung Galaxy S3 TPU Case Review - Blue

Youtube Link
Yet another video review, I do quite like this case. Any feedback is more than welcome.
What's peoples experience on scratching?
I bought a similar generic TPU case from amazon, although it is OK, I am worried about the amount of dust that collects around the rim of the case/phone.
I have had bad experience before with gel cases, which I think are exactly the same as these TPU cases, with my Galaxy S1, where lots of dust got trapped under the case and eventually caused alot of scratching/abrasion on the shiny plastic case of the phone.
What is everyone elses opinion on these types of cases, or any cases for that matter for getting dust trapped under it?
I have just purchased some of those XtremeGuard full body protectors for my S3, but to my disappointment they do not cover the silver rim around the phone. Has anyone else had scratches on the silver bit yet? If so how easily is it scratched?
Overall I do sound a bit OCD, but I hate getting scratches on my phone as it just wrecks the resale value!

No it's fair enough. I'll try it for a few days maybe a week and see how I get on. Seems ok after a day or so

Genuine or not?
Hi Oli2k.
I bought this case from chinese seller on ebay.
I just think mine is not genuine cause there are no rubber caps in the flaps that go INTO connectors. Also there is a text "GalaxySIII" on the back of the case.
I am pretty sure this is not genuine case but the seller claims it is.
In a picture of the case on cover of the packaging is also a text "GalaxySIII".
Someone else have it?

Product pictures are genuine(same as mobilefun), but the case itself is different.
I bought mine from amazon.com and there are no flaps that go INTO the connector, just covering the connector...
as for the GS3 print, I think the international version of the case has the print, because the battery cover does not have the GS3 logo.... the US version does not have the logo on the case as there is already one on the battery cover....
Yours looks genuine to me

Wallet cases are cool but I always worry that I will lose my cards or money. Also when you talk to someone you either have a big flap against your face or you fold the flap and all your money and cards are exposed.

I was about to make a similar post so I might as well post my questions here:
is there anything similar to the quick cover, that doesn't cost a kidney, and is available easily across Europe (suggested alternatives above aren't unfortunately) ?
I'm searching for something that doesn't add much bulk and would cost between 10 to 25 €...
Thanks !
Is there any wallet style case that have all around the protection like in the Diztronic TPU matte black. I don't like about the holes bottom there and in sides.. I want case without any holes, more protection!

Charger port cover - Rubber or plastic?

So I know this was discussed before but a quick search on my end didn't yield any results. So for people who recently have bought the Sony watch, is the new version of the charger cover rubber or plastic. I got mine back in December an its rubber but a friend of mine is thinking about getting one an I remember reading in the beginning about some being plastic, an others being rubber. Anyone know what the final change was to?
