This is the SGS2 but looks to be just like the Infuse cover (which I never had a problem with its design):

They should have put a nice metal back plate on the Infuse like they did with the Captivate.

It will do the job! I have yet to drop a phone when it's in an otterbox. Now take it out and I swear I wind up dropping it, then kicking it across the floor. I just want to be able to keep it on my side. I plan on getting a siedo case later. If this holds up, may not need to.

Actually I did the cut out on that same tpu cover you got. The case is still pretty sturdy. Waste high drop no problem. The rubber is taking the beating. All what you prefer though. And if ya mess up otterbox will send you a new one if you tell them the clips holding it together broke. Just s suggestion though.

nice ingenuity. you could have heated the edges of the plastic and pressed the cover over the battery to keep the strength and protection too.

Just so everyone knows! I just drop kicked my tb across the room cuz I couldn't make a call! Still works like new. Service went down and I thought my tb took a dump. I love this phone!!!

Uh you could all save yourself alot of time and money and just get the Trident Electra case. I have literally drop kicked my phone just to show a friend of mine how good this case is. And it comes with an extended battery so you will have another.
Just curious....what did you use to cut them? I'm thinking of using a coping saw, but wish I still had my dremel.
Ah I heated up a flat blade screwdriver with a bic lighter soldering iron I had was not heating up
Then I cut the screwed up plastic slag with side cutters

Another thread here, talks about this case scratching the phone, specifically the outer metal frame.
see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1129485
I've used it for months now and i have no scratches, its lined with felt stuff, so unless you rub sand in there, i don't think it can scratch it...
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk
I'm REALLLLLLY looking into getting this case for my G2x... Only thing that worries me is scratches. If I get it, I might end up modifying the inside of the case. Maybe make it more impact resistant?
The Galaxy S4 may be plastic(which is an advantage imo) but it got a lot less scuffs and dings compared to the iPhone 5.

What do you think guys?which one fared better?

It's pretty lame to compare metal to plastic. I'm sorry bud but plastic always will win in a drop test :banghead:

Seriously? Then why people fight metal vs plastic? So plastic fares better on drop tests and also fares better on scratches.so...

Hence why I prefer plastic. So much tradeoffs for gorgeous looks, for me it's not worth it. Even when I used to have HTC, I really liked the plastic build and would easily prefer it over the One's design IMHO.
I haven't really seen anyone post up a back cover for the Galaxy S4, but this one is pretty unique. It's not plastic but it's rubberized and smooth. It makes the phone look way better than the original back cover. I do understand that there are metal back covers, but they have a black outline on them and make the phone a bit bulkier. This fits perfectly.:good:
If you're interested:laugh:

It fits on any case, but I use it without a case at times because it feels nice without it. Just the texture makes it feel great.

Looks good. But does it sit higher than the camera. To stop the camera lens getting scratches ?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
I like. I might grab one. I wanted one for my S3 but it had the KHOMO logo on the outside where the Samsung logo normally is and I just thought it looked tacky.
Just bought one. I wish there were more back covers like this. Nice texture and clean looking.
A nice suede back cover would be really nice.
Does this back works with zero lemon 3000 battery?
