just letting you guys know seidio is now shipping their innocase (black only though)

That's awesome, thanks for letting us know, been waiting to see that. Now after seeing it, I'm sure of what I assumed, that the OEM/Verizon kickstand case is a much better case. It has a kickstand you can use in portrait and landscape, it provides good grip on the back of the phone, it fits very tightly and is durable plastic, and it barely goes over the front of the phone at all leaving the phone quite thin.
Innocases are what I used on my last 3 phones, and the soft touch/rubberized feel is nice (the kickstand case is rubberized but not as much), but, they are relatively brittle, they bulk up the phone a good deal by covering all sides and the front, and they don't have kickstands. I can't imagine not having a kickstand now after having one. But perhaps most important, is the cost? The kickstand cases are brand new on ebay for $12 shipped. innocases are going to run you $30 + shipping.
edit: Seidio's holsters are awesome though, best I've ever used. but I know a lot of people don't use a holster, and you can't with the kickstand case on anyways. I suggested a pouch to go with the kickstand case in my thread about it in this forum.
nice! thanks for the update! i've been waiting for a solid case that didn't cover up much of the front bezel. now only if sgp's website was working and i could get the ultra crystal screen protector...
does anyone have this? how is it? bulky or no?
I bought this case. It's really nice. However it makes my phone look exactly like an Iphone. You've probably seen this case on plenty of Iphones - it is essentially identical. The case its relatively thin, but certainly adds to the phone's size. It's probably about as thin as you're going to get for a case though (aside from using an invisible sheild type skin ). Quality is great. I love the case, the added size is fine because the case is still pretty sleek looking - And well worth the $30 investment to protect such an expensive phone. Lets not forget, samsung is notorious for bad build quality.

cool, i ordered it and will give a review here after i try it out for a bit. i hope it fels good in the hand
They are about the best cases out. Not too much bulk and the rubberized finish is a nice touch. Best Buy had them in black and white. They are labeled as the Seidio platinum series on retail shelves.

ok so i just got this case.. its pretty sweet! only one thing i dont like and i can't beleive no one else mentioned this, the power and volume rockers are kinda blocked off in a way that makes it a lil tough for your thumb to get too
I just got this case today in black..weird that Best Buy lists the white case at 29.99 but the black case at 34.99..weird, not exactly sure why the black costs more. Anyways, I will have some pretty detailed pictures tonight!
No pics, my camera is bummy..but I love the case. Fits perfectly and I don't mind it making the buttons more difficult to press. I have sausage fingers anyway so it feels better to me

Got my seido Active X w/holster in yesterday... I'm loving it, it looks way better than the otterbox, it provides more grip, you can actually see all the glass, and it doesn't block half the speaker on the back.. Glad I ordered it..

I would love to help you out but unfortunately my point and shoot camera broke about 2 weeks ago... so the only camera I have now is my cellphone
I'm pretty sure someone posted some pics already somewhere in here with the seido active X case..
It looks really great and the finger grips in the sides work AWESOME!!! It looks way better than the otterbox!!!
These pics are spot on though!!!

Received this message "Coupon code "XMAS15" is not valid. The coupon expired on Sun Dec 19 00:00:00 PST 2010", so it appears the code has expired. Will wait for other colors now.
Just to update everyone, I had a Platinum case (Innocase) from Best Buy. I returned it because the bottom part had become unreasonably loose. Waiting for Bestbuy.com to get the Otterbox back in stock. I'm currently using the "carbon fiber" looking case from Verizon.
Hey
Im just looking to see if any one know a good leather pouch for my I900
And when I say pouch I mean a case that the phone slips into and I can get out without having to undo something
Just like the cases that come worth blackberry s
Thanks

I treated myself to this one just before Christmas. I love it. Phone fits nice and snuggly, and it comes out when you pull the strap. Doesn't add much 'pocket bulge' either, and it's £3 cheaper now.
Cheers,

I bought one of these of Ebay. Damn good for £11.95. Unfortunately I can't post links yet. Search for "KRUSELL LEATHER CASE POUCH FOR SAMSUNG i9000 GALAXY S" on Ebay.
I like the vintage leather look but I had my reservations about the metal logo tag. It's really grown on me and I love it. Hope that helps.

I've got this one too. Very nice, but a bit shorty with the SGS
these guys make awesome customized cases.. i have used them for last 3 phones..
and they hold up too.. a little pricey but hey.
they dont specific list one for the galaxy but if you email them or buy a style and say in the comments you want it for the galaxy s. they will make it for that phone.. fits exactly

I have a brown leather suncase pouch, available on Amazon (at least in Germany). It's very nice!
The neoprene cases from Bugatti are good. I got me one at the vodafone store around the corner. Fits perfect and you can easy slide the galaxy in and out all day long. Cost 15.99 $. The good thing about.neoprene is that you can easily wash it (I'm not sure but is it right that you shouldn't wash leather cases?)

I would recommend you the 'Bugatti' cases too.. They are really nice.. Has a very good fit.
Ciao
I bought one on ebay, it feels good, holds the phone in well in a plastic holder which seems good. Only had it for about 3 weeks so can't confirm what it will be like in a couple of months. schmarky22 was the seller, title SAMSUNG I9000 GALAXY S WALLET CASE + SCREEN PROTECTOR, £4.49 sorry can't put link into reply..

I like the first link more ;-)
looks really tough
I preffer show my phone as it is... without cases!
Regards!
I prefer the Otterbox case. look-wise anyway.
got the otterbox - recommended.
The otterbox is brilliant !
Nice to hear praise for the otter box, I threw one in to my battery order. Actually not big on covering the phone up, but my bezel is all scratched and dented from my 3-4 drops plus a 'ride' through the internals of a recliner (if I had a certain other phone, it would be shattered not just blemished).

Was going to post this. Currently have the poetic case (rebranded acase) but it takes too much room on a desk when using it, annoying to try to use in conjunction with a keyboard. Not to mention using it outside of a desk or one handed is troublesome too, but I don't think this case will fix that either.
I have the poetic case too. Two things i dont like with that case is it doesn't lock properly when you are setting it at certain angles. And the speakers get covered as well.
The poetic looks neat though.

Able too Charge on the TouchStone Dock while still in this case, GREAT. . .
I Couldnt Pass up a Deal like this, Thanks for the Assist. .
Just Bought one. . .
The price has gone up. Sky rocketed to $19.99. LOL!
That sux. . . But still a good investment. . .

Yeah. I still ordered one.
Still a great deal!! Thank you so much for the info. Bought one and now I have to wait =(
I got a couple few days ago. I should be getting them delivered today.
I have two TPs. One with this case and my CM9 unit with the Poetic case. Poetic case is nice but bulky and it does not protec the corners. My 3 year old was playing with my CM9 unit and dropped it on to a pavement right on the corners where it's not covered. No real damage but those scratch marks will haunt me.
I received my case yesterday. (HP's shipping is super fast! Love it!) It's an awesome case. I didn't realize it was like a hard rubberized case either. I thought it was leather. Very pleased with the purchase.
Guess that's why your case cost more..... I ordered mine first, but u already got yours. . I have too wait too Monday :[ for it too be delivered. . .

I bought a case for $10 and a couple sleeves for $2. The case is ok. Somewhat flimsy. Don't think it's worth more than $10. The sleeve is really nice for the price of $2. Similar material as the case.
great to hear! Should be getting mine tomorrow or Tuesday!pretty excited, my tp has a few scratches on the back which annoy me, be nice to get a case on it. Especially hearing about how nice this case is

I have been using the incipio case till now. Got in on this deal and while it is nice it is a tight fit. Do I now need to worry about getting the cracks near the Touchpad speakers so many others have been reporting?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
really liking this case so far. It is a tight fit, which is nice. But as people have been talking about cracks around the speakers on tight fitting cases, I am a little worried but really not to much. I already have a slight crack on one of the speakers, so not a big deal, the case hides all that =)
While the $10 deal is dead, Amazon now has it for $12.50......
Amazon also has the Touchstone for $40 as well.....
I bought this case, but ima use it when I travel, I also bought an black silicone case for my touchpad and it fits perfect an it charges while on the touchstone without having to remove it.
best thing it only cost $5.49
Here's the link if anybody is interested in a black silicone case for touchpad.

How snug is the silicone case? I hate when they're all slippy and slidy on a device! How much more thickness does it add?

The one i linked too, fits perfectly it actually has a little more silicone on it , so it wraps around the black void part of the screen. . . It adds a good amount of thickness, in my opinion about the thickness of a quarter....

My wife has a Case-mate on her SGS and I have an Otterbox Commuter on mine.
Both are good cases, but I prefer the Otterbox.
I got 3 different cases from amazone.
We have 3 sgs in our family...
All 3 are really nice but i prefere that silicon one (but in black):

i ordered a case from amazone.
this one. it's good when you go out to jog, beacause it doesen't slip off your hand or something like that.
but it doesn't go well in the pocket.
thats because i have several cases, but i never paid more that 5-10 € .
i cant post any links, so here ist the linke to the article in two parts.
