who is using the free case? - Honor View 20 Questions & Answers

I wasn't expecting to find a case with the phone package. But I quite like it, although I'm still on the look out for flip down leather case as I prefer those type of cases.

As it's plastic it'd scratch real easily plus without the case I'm scared to drop it

It all depends on how you handle your phone, and where u keep it while outside. I got the Olixar silicone case.

What's plastic?

I'm using the case provided in the box but as it's not clear(dotted surface), it masks off the excellent holographic effect. Looking to get other cases.

I'm using the free gel case that came in the box. I'm looking for something more long-term, but it isn't bad as a freebie from the manufacturer.

I remove the case as it increases the size of the phone in my pocket.

I've been using the free case and I like it a lot better than the clear silicone you usually find. It's really easy to clean and offers good protection.

Just got the phone yesterday. And i was suprised that mine didnt come with it. As every video stated it comes with one.
Don't know why, but there was no free case in my box(yes it was new, unopened, tape/plastic sealed package) I bought in legit place, in my mobile operator store.
Oh well... bought case from ali, next 2 weeks will be pain in the .... Untill it arrives. fingers crossed that i dont drop it anywhere.

Just recently got the view 20, is anyone able to recommend me a decent case or screen protector? The usual brands I go for seem to not support this device. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Which hard case would you recommend?

I much prefer slim hard cases, typically seidio brand. I can't seem to find a good alternate. Quality is much more important to me than price. What do you guys suggest?
I'm on my fourth case and they all suck. One scratches the phone. One turns it off when I'm not looking. One fits too loosely, and one got all dirty the first day.
I'm going to buy this one next in silver. I like the fact that it looks like there's really no case and it got good reviews on the case mate site. I'll let you know how I like it if you want.

I've been using my case-mate tough case ever since they came out with them, and I can't speak highly enough about the quality and fit.

I tried this case in silver and sent it back. I found that it degraded my phone signal. Of course, AFTER I buy it I do some searching and find other complaints on the silver cases for various phones.

I haven't noticed any issues with the silver barely there case that I just got. But as far as protection goes, probably not the best one for this thread's request.
I also have a tough case, which I highly recommend for anyone looking for a solid case for protection.
Case-mate tough case is great, as someone allready stated I cannot recommend it strongly enough. You won't find a better case for the money or more imo

What about the body glove case? I was looking at that one for a hard case. What do you guys think about it? Anyone use it?
I have a body glove case and frankly it leaves alot to be desired. The case easily doubles the thickness of the phone, and with out fail turns out my jean pockets every time I use it. I'm not sure if i got a bad case or what but the case does not seal properly all the way around the phone. I have had the misfortune of dropping my case from table height (appx 3ft high) and the body glove case did protect the phone wonderfully. I have the full black and chrome case, not the clear back shell. I am in the process of deciding on a different case and thus far I am heavily leaning towards the case-mate tough case.
Mesh case. Love it... every other case makes a thin phone too large.

Hope that doesn't happen with the one I just ordered. But everything else you say about the case sounds great to me. I don't know how many times I have almost dropped the phone from it slipping out of my hands while pressing the volume or power buttons. Do the black Case-Mate cases have a rubberized feel to them?
My vote is for the bodyglove case. I have been through 4 cases and this far is my favorite. It protects gives the extra bulk and looks slick. It also has a kick stand which I use all the time.

Case Mate tough case for me. Silicone inside prevents scratches and tough plastic outside offers some protection from falls.

Here is a couple pics of the body glove in action. By the way it protects well I have dropped it a couple of times and the case comes apart instead of the phone breaking. I dont know how you wear your phone but I slide the phone in my pocket with the clip sticking out.
Trident Case for Samsung Vibrant
Got the TPU case, good fit, but feels cheap. Got the mesh case, looks decent but not much protection. Got tired of waiting for Otterbox. Almost got the CaseMate Toughcase but they only come in black or pink. Then I came across this last week. Check out the plugs and the buttons, even the back camera has clear cover over it. Liked the attention to details so pre-ordered it. According to the website, they're being shipped this Wednesday 11/17. Since I'm new, I can't post the link, here are some photos of the product. Just google Trident Cyclops Samsung Vibrant. Be sure to "Like" them on Facebook to save the $6.00 shipping. I wish ElementCase would make an ION3 or Liquid Carbon for Vibrant. I'm so sick of iphony and ipotty getting all the good cases.

I got my silver case mate barely there and it is awesome. I guess it is more of a looks than protection thing, but the front of the case is over the bezel so when the phone is face down there's still a gap. The silver is really good looking. Case mate also sent it the day I ordered, and I got it from GA to CA in 3 days.

Are you sure it wasn't just a coincidence? The complaints were about the chrome, not the metallic silver. I haven't seen anything, and my phono widget says the signal is as strong as ever.

- sorry - no outside links allowed on my xda account yet(?). You can figure out what shoud go in the spaces...
It's hard plastic with a rubbery feel. It's smooth enough to slide into my pocket and not pick up lint, but sticky enough that it can sit on my center armrest in the car without worrying about it sliding off.
There's also about a 1/16th inch high border around the screen that does a good job of keeping down any chance of a drop resulting in the screen touching anything the ground.

Figures!!! The upper left corner of the body glove case doesn't want to keep closed. I just sent an email to the seller for a refund. I'm thinking of just getting a extended battery with a rubberized back cover, and a new pouch to fit it.
Yea that's why I have the casemate now, hopefully you didn't order it on ebay there was this one seller that I bought it from and he would not repond to my messages about the case, also my bodyglove case won't stay closed at all anymore. I just think their quality control isn't all that great.
The tough case feels like abs plastic and is textured so it doesn't catch on pocket lining when you pull the phone out your pocket but it still feels good ib your hand and doesn't feel like its going to slout og your hands

[Q] Best SGS2 Cases Available

Hi,
I'm waiting for my Samsung Galaxy S II to arrive in the mail that I just bought on Ebay for $770 CAD. I was wondering what were the best cases available that won't detract from the phone's, 'sexyness'. Here are a few cases I thought looked nice on Ebay:
Barely There Case:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...00292&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_2449wt_1115
Leather 'Wallet' Case:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...58999&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_3824wt_1115
Mesh Case:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/Samsung-Genuine-...Accessories&hash=item2a119b4aec#ht_4050wt_957
Does anyone know what would be the best case for what I'm looking for? I'm focused on quality and looks rather than the price.
UPDATE: I just read the thread rules that stated "no advertising of any kind". Please note that I am not advertising these products. I am only posting them here for comparative purposes, with no intention to sell any products.
UPDATE 2: I bought the "barely there TOUGH" case. It was a little more expensive than the average case (I think it's going for 30 on ebay as of dec 16) but let me tell you, it is probably the only case you'll ever need for this phone. It feels like my phone is wearing a badass suit while still lookin fresh. Buy this case. You'll love it.

barely there and mesh case are similar..both are slim ,light.. both look perfect..
mesh case has holes that might help on heat transfer from the phone,and can be removed much easier than the barely there case..
both do not cover top and bottom of the phone(barely there protects about 0.5cm more)..
in terms of the two in my opinion mesh case is better,,
the other case protects much more..but makes your phone extra large..
its a matter of personal taste
I like the mesh case, but I doubt these cases will protect the phone from any falls. I really like the Rearth case, and the mesh case. I'm waiting now for a Case-Mate Pop case I'm going to review, which will be out in august or september as I was told from CM. The best thin cases? I really REALLY like the Rearth case. I reviewed it just yesterday, check out my sig for that. The Mesh case, which I also own, are very good, and leave the phone all sexy ... The CM cases, I don't like the barely there case series. I don't know why. It makes it look too plain.
ive got the mesh case in black look great on the phone and as already stated really easy to take on and off but it does collect dust and dirty under it like a magnet. plus probably not much protection if dropped
I've got the casemate tough n it is nice, stops dust n grease, would defiantly protect from a fall. However the phone gets stupidly hot n stays hot for ages. Just ordered a mesh case to see how that goes

I have the samsung mesh in white and it collected dust under it like nobodys business! It looks sooo sexy though! Solution? I ordered a Zagg maximum protection and installed it on the back and sides... Like stated before, the case is so easy to put on it wrapped right around it perfect and you cant even tell its there. So i am totally protected (from scratches) and still look sexy and slim.

Thanks guys,
I think the Ottercase looks the best so far, as it seems to have the most protection. My only concern is that it may make the phone look too bulky.
Any experience with these cases?

I've got both the Casemate barely there and the genuine mesh case (black with italic S character).
Both are thin, lightweight and adds a better grip without making it difficult to put the phone in and out of your pocket (I use tight pants ). In fact they are very similar, but the barely there has a bit more matte color, and is a tad more gray when compared to the completely black mesh case. Also the mesh case feels a tad better in the hand, and is easier to take on and off (it still sits firmly on the phone).
As you are talking about keeping the sexiness of the phone, I would recommend the mesh case But they both are good, so you won't be disappointed either way.

Thanks for your input Hrti!
I heard a few other people saying that the mesh case doesn't quite cover the whole entire phone. And while the 'sexyness' is a huge factor, I am more concerned about keeping the phone completely protected. Cuz I'd be devastated if anything ever happened to my baby. lol.
Keep the suggestions coming!

Got mesh case, now back using the case mate tough. Not sure what the mesh cases point is, top n bottom completely exposed, its a dust magnet. My phone dropped from the arm of the sofa and it came clean off. I suppose it does look nice but if that's the main concern and you're not bothered about the non protection it provides you may as well not have a case. That's just my opinion anyway

Thanks for writing that - I dropped my phone last night indoors on a carpet, and I've always used the mesh case - but it popped straight off and the phone and the case were about a meter apart when they settled.... (phone was fine btw). It got me thinking if I dropped that on concrete or something it'd be pretty badly damaged!
Was looking at the case mate tough - and it's not till I just read your post now that it's convinced me to get one!

Looking for a new case, need some help.

Hey all,
So im in the market for a new case. Currently im using the Monaco aluminum case. I still love the thing, just growing bored with it. What im looking for is something on the slimmer side with a decent industrial look. I've gone through hundreds of pages on Google shopping, amazon, eBay, places like that.
by industrial i mean something that looks very sturdy and hard edged. I really don't want to add much bulk though, the evo is big enough on its own.
Has anyone seen something like this? iv been looking for the past couple weeks off and on, so far i got nothing.
Any and all help is deeply appreciated.
Trident EVO case is good and durable. It also is slimmer than most cases, low cost too

What do you use to clean the screen cover?

I would look at the pyrrhic line the commuter case is good and durable but I use the defender series adds a little bulk but not much plus it's got a membrane over the screen to give I there layers of protection (hard case covered in a silicone sleeve plus screen membrane) well with the money.

Cool Beans! thanks for the help people. now i gotta choose between the otterbox and the trident...
If You're Still Looking
Don't know if you've already bought your case by now, but I just posted this on another thread. I HIGHLY recommend the Otterbox Commuter series case. I've had it for almost a year now, and it is amazing. I've been pretty rough with my phone, but it has saved it from any sort of damage. It provides fantastic protection and feels solid and strong in my hands, but at the same time it doesn't make the phone seem bulky and has a great very smooth, sleek, thin feel to it. Definitely the best of both worlds in terms of balancing strong protection with sleek good looks. IMO, the Trident case looks much too bulky and adds way too many bumps and curves to the phone.
Another thing I love about Otterbox is their amazing customer service and 1-year no-questions-asked warranty guarantee. I recently broke the case itself somehow (the phone stayed completely protected though) so I emailed their warranty services and told them, and they simply asked for my shipping address and sent me a new case in under a week! They didn't even ask for a copy of the receipt or pictures of the broken case. It was the fastest, easiest warranty claim I've ever had.
If you do go for an Otterbox, definitely buy it off eBay and not retail. You'll save yourself a good $20-25. It's about $12 new on eBay (cheaper than the listed Trident cases). I'd post a link, but I'm still a noob
I stopped looking a while ago. i cant find a case i really like. My aluminum case is super awesome for protection, and is really cool that i can say its a metal case, but as i said before i just want something new. this time around i was basing this search mostly on looks. I couldn't find anything that impressed me so for the time being I'm gonna stick with the aluminum.
Gotchya. An aluminum case sounds pretty sweet. Can you post a link to the one you're using? I think I might want to check that out

Used My GN For The First Time Without The Case...

It's almost perfect. Been inside the TPU since minute one and I cleaned her today. Looking at it and holding the GN caseless was incredible. Slim, thin. Only quibble is that it can be a tad slippery. I'm way to chicken to use it without a case on a regular basis.
Any go GN nude all the time?
I do Why hide such a beauty? The screen is good enough to resist scratches and the back is really good too. After 7 - 8 months if I do notice some wear and tear, I can just order another through eBay for 15 bucks or so..
I got mine yesterday and I don't use a case. I dropped it onto concrete from about 2 feet and it sustained no damage.
Using mine without a case too. I find putting a case on it just ruins the aesthetics and makes the phone thicker.
I get that people use cases for protection, and one thing i can say is that samsung phones are built to be really durable. I dropped my samsung nexus s countless times and it still worked like a champ.
The galaxy nexus feels even more durable so no worries here.
Using mine without a case. I hate cases. Ruin the feel and design of the device. I did order a sleeve (like the one that came with the Nexus One) off ebay. I just need something to protect it while in my pocket. Not worried about drops.
I've never had a case on any of my phones. I'm really careful and I've only dropped a phone once. I think cases make the phone look generic. With that said, being the GN is large and a little slick to handle I decided to get the diztronic case. Plus I wanted to protect my $730 investment.
Its a nice case but it only lasted for about 5 hours before I whipped it off.
Cases just aren't for me I guess!

This is the one I bought: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAP...2&ssPageName=ADME:L:OU:US:1123#ht_2629wt_1163
But the listing ended. I emailed the seller when the first listing ended and said I wanted to buy one and he gave me that listing. So it's worth a shot if you're interested.
Caseless here. I just have the protection film on the bottom and sides of the back to protect against scratches.
I'm caseless here as well. Most devices feel the best when you use them without cases.
It's like going condomless. You're more prone to bad stuff but you get to feel it best ;p
But make sure you put screen protection film on. My screen scratched quite badly already. It's pretty hard to notice, but make sure you take a good look at your phone screen under bright light perhaps halogen lights and you'll see all those scratches!
i also go caseless- i put a case on when i am at the gym but thats the only time i use one- i have a screen protector but thats it...

Caseless here too. I used to own an iPhone with an Otterbox Defender, and after that, I hated how clunky phones got with cases. These phones are designed to be sleek, and I feel like you take that away when you slap a piece of black TPU or silicone on it.
I'm case-less, except for a screen protector from Zagg. Bought a Diztronic case but it hasn't arrived yet.

Have the Matte one myself. It's a fine TPU product. Caseless though this thing feels like a slab from the future. I wish I wasn't chicken.
I clicked this thread expecting a horror story. "I took the case off, and I dropped it the first day..."
Anyways, if I buy the Galaxy Nexus, I'll probably use it careless. Unlike my stupidly built iPhone, I could actually set the phone down on a table, or drop it, without too much of a problem.
Don't use a case, but I do have it in a pouch. I think its the best of both worlds.. protected from dust and keys and bumps while in my pocket, but looking good when its out and being used!
i dont use a case, i'm currently looking for a pouch so i can sling it in my gym bag though.
My phone is always commando why hide it under a case.

Looking for a case.

I'm looking to get a case for my SGS2, i picked it up locally on CL a few weeks ago and the film that was on the back cover is starting to get messed up, figure I should just get a case.
Anyhow, i'm looking for a case that is easy going in and out of the pocket (a must, its why i have left the film on it, nice and easy out of the pocket), dot need or care about kickstand, and looking to get it on amazon, been looking at all the cases i could find on amazon and came up with two that i think fit the bill, any one have experience with them?

was also looking at skins as well, just for the extra bit of protection, which of these would be best?

The Aegis case is great (not sure about the Fishbone one though), can't really go wrong.
I would probably go with this one;

As for skins, don't bother with full skin. If you want a screen protector, Invisishield is excellent, my brother has it on his International S2 and it's very clear and nice, he loves it.
Personally I don't use a screen protector on mine, no issues with scratches whatsoever, not even fine scratches.
Yeah, if you want a good screen/case combo, can't go wrong with Aegis or my preference the Seidio case and invisishield screen protector.
i know when i had the Seido Activ case for my Nexus S it was a bit "grippy" and pulled my pocket out when brining the phone out (slight annoyance), is that one the same?
Having the film is more for the back/sides protection, i saw some threads about how some cases can scratch it up.

For the skin, I would recommend a Ghost Armor one. I just got mine and I'm in love with it. You can barely notice the screen protector is on it, and it works great. Also the texture of the carbon fiber feels great and will keep your phone looking and feeling just like new.
What about this one:

It looks great, I brought it and Im a happy customer
i bought this one

im using the sedio active case with clip. not too bulky and easy goes in and out of pocket.
but if you wear skinny jeans like some of these kids nowadays then go with the thinnest case possible.
ended up getting the fishbone one, will update when it shows up (it was @ the $10 mark which i had a gift card on amazon for that amount)
i didnt care for the fishbone case. i have a black one and i dont like the way it feels and it seems to kinda pick up lint in my pocket. i have one pretty much new just sitting here lol. i like this case the best.

The Best Case Ever
The 3DO impact resistant case that Tmobile sells is the best case for any cell phone I have ever seen. It doesn't hang up on clothing like other gel cases and the 3DO technology is outstanding. You must see this case to believe how great it is. Meanwhile check out the videos here and on YouTube (search 3DO)

In my opinion this case is worth every penny and then some. It feels awesome in the hand, doesn't hang up in a pocket and offers superb impact protection.
