Good news from SGP Steinheil! - Epic 4G Accessories

So I emailed SGP inquring about when//if they were going to be carrying skins/screen protectors for the Epic, and at FIRST they replied:
" We will not be making any protectors for the Epic 4G, we are currently focusing on the iPhone 4 and the Galaxy S"
I was confused by this because obviously the Epic is a PART of the samsung galaxy line, so I emailed them back asking what they meant by that since they already have screens/skins for the Galaxy S, Vibrant and Captivate.
She replied back to me stating that:
"She had just double checked if the would be supporting the Samsung Epic and the answer was "YES". It would be only a matter of time before they have screen protectors and skins for the Epic and they should be in stock soon within 2-4 weeks!"
I'm excited for Steinheil because I've never used this brand before but have heard nothing but extremely positive reviews!
posted from a EPIC4G.

I will order one of this as soon as my new Epic arrives.

Never bought from Fommy, but. . .

It looks like they've got a decent amount of Nexus stuff.

Personally, I'm waiting for incipio
http://www.myincipio.com/category/google_nexus_one_cases/
or
Seidio
http://www.seidioonline.com/category-s/4025.htm
This is what I went with for mine:
Crystal Skin
Should be similar to the ones that were popular with the myTouch / Magic. The resin TPU ones.
And for screen protectors I will see if these are any good. Seems to be an invisible shield / BSE clone.
As long as they hold up until more accessories become available I'm fine.
I don't think the cases from fommy are good because some of the cases block the proximity sensor on the phone.
I've had the resin TPU one on my magic for quite some time, and its the best I have ever used. It doesnt add alot of weight to the phone, and lso one of the easiest to install.
I really hope somebody comes out with a carbon fiber case, that would be sweet.
I am getting the privacy screen protector from Fommy and I'll post back my findings on the sucker.
It'll be cool if moshi comes out w/ something. My friend has one for her iphone and it looks sweet! It is very stream-lined and doesn't make your phone any fatter. I typically hate cases. However, I think what moshi has looks pretty sweet.

That skin looks pretty cool. Care to share any pics of it installed onto your phone when you have a moment?
I know in the past people were saying that magnetic closures messed up the G1's compass over time. Is that turning out to be true? I would think the N1 and any other phone with a compass would suffer the same fate if that is the truth. I like having my compass..
I bought the Ferrari car charger from that site. I ain't get it yet but when I will, ill post a review.
never order from fommy! i had the worst experience with them. i ordered the screen protector and the clear case (both were pre-order).. and also another screen protector for my N97.. later realized they didnt have the cheapest deals.. wanted to cancel the order the same day i ordered them. called customer service, noone picked up. tried a hundred times.. emailed them as well to no avail. come monday, i get a confirmation email that one of the items was shipped. argh! finally after calling nonstop, a customer rep finally picked up. I can only be refunded for the two items that hasn't shipped yet.

Sorry to hear you had such a bad experience with fommy. I on the other hand had no problem with the site. I had no problem calling them and asking them and speaking to a representative.
What about the battery they have...That doesnt look like the right battery! It says it fits 3-4 phones....Dosent look right...What do yall think?
Be very careful ordering from Fommy
Anyone with a few minutes should take a look at this forum thread. It is a long thread and I don't expect anyone to read it all. The bottom line is Fommy does not have much of a credibility when it comes to their salespeople.

Sprint has hard cases for Arrive in stores now, ready for the 20th. I got to take a look at it but didn't get a price.
They have the holsters and shell style cases think the shell is just the gel though. I like the holster its not bulky but seems it may fall out easy cuz it don't have a front fascia plate.

My wife tried it in the store, it is not bad actually. Not too bulky, looks kind of fancy.
But I really just want a good screen protector, my sprint store had none.
Ya, I don't like that their screen protectors only cover the viewing part of the screen, not the entire glass front.....I'm going to look into phantomSkins and see if they have them yet. Thanks for the info.
I remember that there were none screen protectors for 7 PRO in february (so i think that i will not buy it now) but i remember that i found some official HTC shop, saying that it will be aviable in march. Original screen protectors, go & buy them

Doesn't the Arrive use Gorilla Glass or whatever the EVO uses? If so, then no need for a screen protector. My EVO has been in my jean pocket since I got it last June with zero scratches or marks.

Just in case anyone is interested. The screen protector for the Shift matches the screen size for the 7 Pro perfectly. I bought a set in a Sprint store and that's what I am using.
As someone mentioned it's only for the viewable part of the screen; it doesn't make it down to the buttons which is what I wanted anyway.
I bought 2 screen protectors for the Arrive for my wife and I on Ebay from Clearfreak. They were cheaper on ebay than on their own website.
It is supposed to cover the entire glass.
I plan to install it on 1 phone and not the other to test out how thick it is, and if it degrades the sensitivity etc. I will post pictures/review once it comes in.

I did the same, except my last two experiences at applying a protector (and using the cardboard piece to clear off the air bubbles) was QUITE the failure
Luckily, my friends have told me any Sprint store will do it for free for you if you bring the cover and phone in. Sounds stupid, but somehow, I've never been able get those dreaded things to stay..
I will say, the protectors from clearfreak are primo. for 3.99, thumbs way the hell up
I'm using the screen protector for the evo shift, and its good.
Regarding Bluetooth; which ones are you guys using out there? Any recommendations for optimal performance regarding text to speech and announcing callers id names?
it's been a long time coming since the phone's release, but the boxwave cleartouch screen protector is really good. You can't tell its there after applying (it looks like glass). Had this on my old diamond back in the day and worked well for years.
Old thread, I know, but I'm still rockin' my 7 Pro. I wish US Cellular would get the Lumia phones.
Anyway I just want to add that the BodyGlove case for this phone (designated as an HTC Arrive case) is fantastic and is less than $5 with free shipping on Amazon.
I can't post links here until I get 10 posts, so just search for "Body Glove Glove Snap-On Case for HTC Arrive" in Amazon.
Mine has survived several drops on pavement with no damage to the phone.

Case-Mate POP Case - Samsung Galaxy Note Edge

I got the Case-Mate POP Case from AT&T. My phone comes Monday, so my options for picking up a case local were limited.
It seems to be well made. I wasn't thrilled about the ~$30 price tag though.
They also sell the Incipio Silver/Black DualPro Shine but I didn't get to see it in person.

Did you actually pick up at local store? I am curious to know about the case because I need a case and don't want to wait few weeks for a decent case to hip and come in the mail but not a lot of options around.
My concerns with the case is how sturdy the kickstand feels nd does it come with screen protector.
Yes, I picked it up at a local store. Only two in the area had stock according to the online inventory.
The kickstand is kind of flimsy, but I think it'll do the job.
It did not come with a screen protector.
I purchased the case mate pop case and installed it on my note edge and it fits perfectly:good:
Excellent. My phone has been delivered and I can't wait to try it. I'm currently stuck at work. Boo
Got the case on. I think it is an amazing case and the fit is very nice. The phone is much more grippy.
With the exception of the wussy kickstand, it is almost perfect.

Got it last night and I completely agree.
It is thin, protective, the side grips are great and the kickstand is an added bonus.
So far, so good.

I agree also. I started with the Samsung flip case but stopped in to the store today to get a screen protector and noticed the Pop case. I swapped the flip case for it. It looks awesome and now I finally feel like the phone is protected and complete. I have the UAG case coming, but not sure it is going to beat the Case-Mate honestly.
A couple of pics for those on the fence about ordering it.
Does the phone fit into a Samsung dock with the case on?
I don't have the dock but if the dock is form-fitting to the Edge's profile...then I doubt it.

I looked at it at an AT&T store, even trying it on my phone, but my only concern was how far the S-Pen ends up buried in that case. The opening to get a finger in to remove the S-Pen is quite small. I was unable to get it out at all. Do any of you have a similar experience?

With the groove on the metal of the s-pen, I'm easily able to pull it out w my fingernail.
It is in there good, though, but that groove makes it completely fine.

look again….
You know what, I hate lazy customer service and usless people. I went into an at&t store on friday when I got my phone. They said they had an edge demo but no products. On a whim today, I did a search for store availability on the at&t site for this very case, no less thgan 4 said the case was in store. I went to the nearest one (the same one thgat said they had nothing on friday). I showed them the internet site for at&t that said the case was there. The guy checked in the back and said: nope, no case. I said your store locator said you do. He obliged me and sasd let me check one more place.
Under the samsung phones in a covered drawer were 3 freaking cases. 3! I could have had this on friday. I say all this to say if at&T says they don't have it, and the internet says they do, make thgem actually look.

honestly, at first i thought for $30 i was getting hosed. it fees really flimsy out of the box. however, when i put it on the phone is fit like a glove and made the over all grip more solid in the hand. its like suction. i see no reason to ever buy a case for these high-end phones with killer screens and NOT have a kickstand for movies/youtube. therefore, i will stick with it until i have to get a new kickstand. so for now i would reccomend it.
If anyone has an old holster for the otterbox note 2 or 3, can u check and see if this fits in it.
I read the incipio case does, but I would prefer this case for the kickstand feature
Has anyone seen this case in white or only black?

I had the same EXACT problem at the store I visited. Went in was greeted, and told someone would be right with me. I went ahead to look at the cases, a guy came up and asked what I needed. I told him and he said nope we don't have them. I told him it said they did online, he said he would look in the back because they did get a shipment earlier. Well he must have gone in the back and just twiddled his thumbs. So I go back to looking for myself and lo and behold they had the smart folio. I moved to another display and they had the incipio case. I tired it but didn't like it and then flagged another salesperson down to say I know you have the casemate one because it says so online please go find it. and he did. Why do I have to inform them of what they have? SIGH

It would say it is the store. I called the ATT store today and asked them if they had the Case-Mate POP in stock, they put me on-hold, came back said they found it and would put it aside for me until I got there. Drove there 30 minutes later. They brought it out paid for it and was out of the store in less than 10 minutes.
The one I have is mostly black with dark grey on the sides. Fits perfectly. Now I'm just waiting on the Screen Protector.

The AT&T screen protector by Invisishield is actually pretty good. I usually stay away from Zagg-type protectors due to the rubbery, sticky feel. But this one is a definite step up. Plus it installed with no bubbles and can't even tell it's there!

Zenus

One reason i came back after a long hiatus to Samsung, is i wanted a phone everybody made accessories for. Lg and htc just don't get the love. Well it looks like it's getting ready to take off. Zenus just posted a bunch of cases they ate coming out with for our note 4. They all look pretty awesome too. Ive never had a zenus, but I'm gonna pick up a few of these
Zenus makes awesome leather wallet cases. I had one for the Note and Note 2.
Ive heard that. Im just waiting now for the release. They have A bunch 8n the works

Is samsung ever gonna sell their screen protector?

So i got the ESR protectors and they were utter trash, so i got a refund. Now i want something because even though i love having it bare, i'm paranoid. the samsung one was perfect, i loved it, but i got a gouge in it bc im an idiot and dropped my gear s3 on it lol....anyway, i thought i saw samsung was going to sell those protectors...but where are they?
The stock? You feel it was sufficient? I feel it's less thick than usual tempered.

Ya just go to your local grocery store they are usually on the food storage aisle. Comes in a roll usual called plastic wrap. That's all you need basically the same thickness and plus you get a whole roll
I also happen to like the one that came pre applied.
https://www.mobilefun.co.uk/official-samsung-galaxy-s10-plus-screen-protector-transparent-70640
stock due in 4-5 days says, i'm not sure on other countries
Edit:
found another one:

not sure on the reliability of the site.

hilarious.
MOD Edit:
Language.
Stock one is pretty decent in my.opinion. I need something that if I throw my.phone in a pocket w keys the screen doesnt get scratched. Does the job.
I never use screen protectors, but agree this stock one fits the bill...
The stock one is fine for me. Slippery, crystal clear and protects the screen from the scratches. Does the job.
Very good screen protector indeed and I hope this thread finds the answer.
the product code identifier is:
