I've currently got the Defender but it's WAY too thick and the front bezel part is in the way too much.
In the past I've just used a basic slim TPU or similar case coupled with a vertical slide in holster. My problem has been finding a holster that is big enough to fit the phone with the slight bulk added by the cases I know of. Any thoughts?
I never drop my phones and they always look brand new when I sell them a year later, so the defender is way overkill for me...anyone interested in it because I'll be selling it when I find something new.

Qmadix makes a slim case/holster combo. Should be perfect for you.

That looks pretty good, although it doesn't look like the camera portion is thick enough to protect the camera at all, even by a millimeter. Do you have one? Does it offer any protection at all?
I've been using the Otterbox commuter case with the Platinum holster from Best Buy. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990032

Ok, so I got one anyway and the answer is NO, it doesn't protect the camera at all. The Camera bezel is perfectly flush with the case. That being said, it's the only real negative about it. It's SUPER easy to take off if you want to go naked for some reason, the holster works great and the case itself provides just enough grip and heft to make it easy to hang onto.
I'd say about a 8/10...
anyone want a lightly used Defender?
I use the Seidio Innocase but it might be too bulky for you as well :\
I'm searching for a holster/pouch/belt clip for my phone. It's not to protect the phone, but the headset instead. I always go around with the headset connected and eventually they go bad, possibly because my phone is always in my pocket and the cord gets alot of twisting. I'm now on my fourth headset since buying the phone last December, and think that to protect them better I need to wear the phone outside...
My phone already has a fishbone case, so the accessory has to be large enough to fit it. I also want the ports to be easily accessible, so the headset doesn't have to be disconnected when I take the phone out, and possibly so I can charge the battery on the go with my power bank. I've seen some possibilities, but they're typically too small to accompdate my existing case, or the clips come with cases themselves and probably wouldn't properly fit mine. So I'm seeking some advice to find a suitable clip/holster.

Out of the four cases I have tried for the Charge I think I finally found my favorite. The Trident Aegis has some problems as did all the cases I tried but it is the best. It comes in 5 colors and they look great. I got the blue one and it looks as good in person as it does on the site.
The materials used are very nice and the surface has a great anti-skid finish that provides great in hand grip. The hard plastic outer shell covers all 4 sides of the phone for a tight fit. It is thicker then the Otterbox Commuter at the phones curve at the bottom but I actually like that. It gives the phone a great feel when using it in landscape mode. Even though it is a bit bulky it does fit in pockets easily. The corners of the case are heavily padded for drop protection.
All of the ports are covered to prevent dust, moisture or any other unwanted substance getting into them. I found that the usb port was hard to open at times (I have no finger nails) and that the hdmi cover opens a little to easily. The power button and volume rocker are covered as well and easily accessible. One of the things I really like is the dust filter on the speaker opening. The speaker is loud and clear and will not be getting dust in it. The lip that goes around the screen is not as big as the Otterbox but provides just as good of protection.
The protection this case offers is great. Its not as heavy duty as the Otterbox Defender or the Trident Kracken II but it is good enough for every day use. It comes with a screen protector that I did not use. I would recommend this case without a doubt. While its not perfect its does correct the things that I did not like about the Otterbox Commuter and provides just as good of protection. If I can get access to a camera at some point I will post some pictures to go along with the review.
Thanks for all of the info. both here and via PM.
I want to hold out for the Kraken 2, but my Otterbox is driving me nuts so I might just grab an Aegis.

The top and the bottom edges of the Otterbox are not covered by the hard plastic so it is kind of loose. The buttons are also covered which I don't like and the hard plastic is kind of slippery.

I don't like how the top of the silicon portion isn't supported by the hard case, so it easily separates from the phone if you lift the phone by that area.
I also find that, while it's nice to slip in and out of your pocket, the hard case is too slippery for my tastes. It slides off of sloped surfaces and I've almost dropped the phone a few times now.
Personally, I like having the hard buttons covered, but the silicon that covers the buttons doesn't seem to fit tight against the screen, so debris can work its way underneath.
I never use the HDMI port, so not having it protected by silicon makes no sense to me.
Don't let my dislikes make it seem like it's a bad case, it's not, but I think the Aegis will fit me better. The Aegis should arrive tomorrow, so we shall see.
I'm thinking of making a short video to show the differences between the cases. I'll let you know when it's up.
Moondrius and Romemo,
Have either of you had the Incipio case before your trident case? I'm wondering how they compare. I'm surprised to see the trident case so slim since I always incorporate trident cases to be monsters.
I had the Incipio double cover and the Feather and both were sent back. The double cover was alright until I noticed it covered the hdmi port. It did seem thin and less bulky. The Aegis is the most bulky of the 3 but in a good way I would say. Its slightly thicker at the bottom. I would say I liked the Double Cover more then the Otterbox but I used it for like 5 minutes. The Feather was complete garbage. Its a shame because I really liked the Feather when I had my Atrix.
Thanks. I have the Incipio double cover. I really like it since I never use hdmi, not sure I can handle anything that would be bulkier.

Does verizon sell the Incipio case for the Charge? If so, how much do they ask for it? I really like the looks of the Incipio case and I am just trying to figure out if a covered HDMI port is worth it. I get 25% off accessories at Verizon so if the price is reasonable I wouldn't mind picking one up to try it out.
So I get my Charge on Monday. I have the cyclops series trident case for the fassy. It felt good. Overall I liked it. So I purchased the aegis. I bought it from the same ebay seller I got the fassy from: cyclopscase.
A good price too 23.33 with free shipping.

My dust cover for the hdmi port ripped off yesterday. I went to go use it and while pulling the tab off of the phone it just ripped right off. That tab is really flimsy and I used very little force around it.

Yikes... Yeah, that's a definite weak spot. I was thinking that, if I go back to my Aegis, I would just remove that cover.
Is it easy to take in and out of the case? I bought the media dock and the car dock, which leaves no room for a case. So I've been using the zagg shield that covers the entire phone. Problem is with the car dock, the sides have been tearing off due to putting the phone in and out of the dock. It's pretty useless, so I want a real case, but I don't want to buy a new car or media dock for it.
Does the Aegis come off and on pretty easily?

IMHO no. The hard outer shell is designed to be a reeeeally tight fit around the soft inside cover. As a current owner I wouldn't want to constantly take it off and put it back on for a car dock. Plus I think it would eventually wear on the buttons and dust covers.

I can always return it, its not a big deal. I couldn't find much on the case on the web and YouTube. What material is it and does it collect dust and are the power and volume buttons still responsive with it on? All the TPU cases I tried they were hard for me to use the buttons.
It's hard to explain, but the buttons are made with another material so it's very comfortable to push the buttons. It feels better than without a case actually. Ill see if i can take a picture for you

I bought this case the day I bought my phone, about two months ago. It's literally the best case I've had for any device. It isn't a hard case so it feels flexible in the hand. But it isn't a gel case, either, and feels sturdy enough to withstand. I recommend this case for sure. 9/10.

It's a weird polymer material. I've never felt another case like this one. The buttons are as easy to press as the phone naked. If its like $7 as the link said, I'd pick it up. I spent $14 on mine at WalMart and would gladly do it again.
hmm...I just ordered like 2 other $2-3 ones from ebay to test them out (literally yesterday or the day before - haven't even gotten them yet), but as soon as I saw this thread and the pictures, I bought it. lol

Ignore my ignorance but, why are the corners cut out on all the cases?
because theyre made for the O2X and the antenna for that phone is where the cutout is
Here are a few pics of the case I just got (At the mall) I'm not sure what brand but it fits nice and makes my phone feel better, at least to me. This was an O2x case (Corner cut out) but I don't think it looks bad.
Sorry about another "case recommendation" thread, but my question is a little different.
I need a case that can be removed relatively quickly due to the phone not fitting in my car dock if there is a case attached. I really want the Otterbox Commuter case, but unfortunately it would be a hassle to have to remove it and put it on every time I want to use my car dock.
So, any good case recommendations for the Skyrocket which can be easily and quickly removed?
you have the seidio "surface combo" (case+holster). the bottom of the case can be removed as necessary.

I ordered a SEIDIO surface case/holster combo (AKA Best buy Platinum Series). Had one on my Captivate and it was a breeze to put on and take off.
I'm currently using a cheap tpu case I bought off ebay to use until the Seidio became available. It's really easy to install and remove also.

Decent case though. Easy on/off and slides in and out of pants pocket without dragging/sticking like some silicone cases do. Matte finish doesn't show fingerprints/smudges either.
Otterbox Commuter Series is the only way to go!

Yeah. I've used that series on my last three phones. My Otter for the SR came yesterday and I'm quite happy with it. It comes with a screen protector like my others did but that wasn't specified when I ordered it from their site. I bought an invisible shield when I bought the phone but haven't installed it yet. I can probably return that to Best Buy for the $20 or $30 it cost me. I have one on my 64G iTouch and I'm not sure it doesn't have a negative impact on the touch screen's responsiveness. Make sure you get the Commuter. They make three models for this phone. The Defender is kind of obtrusive. I generally only recommend them for extremely klutzy people (ex-girlfriend) who I KNOW will drop the thing at least once a day. The low end is just a gel slip over that's worthless.
One thing I like about the Commuter is, it makes it much easier to push the power button without accidentally turning the volume all the way down which has happened several times. Who thought putting the power button opposite the volume rocker was a good idea? There's a reason they are almost always on different axes.

The Defender adds some size. The Commuter adds very little despite having a thin gel inner lining under the hard outer case.

Love the platinum series from best buy. got mine yesterday. Adds the least bulk of any case I've tried. Matte black, hard rubber feel.
Have a couple of these for my phone. They actually work very well and fit nicely. My phone came with one and I decided to buy another. Nice thig is the more you buy the more color combinations you can come up with. Here are a few pictures. To fin just type (Samsung i727 hybrid) into ebay and search through all the different colors. Not bad for under $10

Cool idea mixing n matching. My girl has one of these on her skyrocket. Good case indeed for the price.
I've seen them, but didn't give them too much thought because they seemed "cheap" in the sense of net being very good. Thanks for the real world update! :good:
I have been looking around for a good case, i had the otter box and its a great case but hard to get in and out of your pocket..... does the rubber on this case make it dificult to slide in and out of your pocket?
I recommend everyone take a look at the Ballistic Case line. I haven't found anything with this much protection. Check the Nexus S variant on Amazon for awesome reviews. TPU backing makes sliding in and out of your pocket a breeze.
The rubber corners that go a bit in front of the screen are without a doubt the best protection I've ever come across. No worries at all about any future drops, the extra few mm of bulk are worth it without a doubt.

I havent found any issues at all going in and out of my pocket. Being the skyrocket is very light (compared to my htc vivid) i would think that drops with this case would be more than effective at protecting it. This combined with a good screen guard is pretty good. Once and a while if you take your phone out of your pocket quickly you will notice the rubber on one of the corners might start to come off but it happens very rarely and its easy to pop the phone back in. I never liked the silicone cases but with this having the solid support that wraps around on all 4 sides it works very well. It also protects to hard keys on the sides and both the charging port and headphone jack. I like it better than the speck case i had for my vivid.
I am very anal about what I buy to protect my devices and I am inpressed with these. I will be buying one every payday until I have all the different colors that I want. I think I paid 7.99 with free shipping and had it here in 3 buisness days. Don't get me wrong though if you are very tough on your phone then I would recommend the Otter Box, Speck Candy shell or the Casemate Tough Series. But for most people these are more than satisfactory. Th rubber on the corners are pretty tough like that of the balistic cases. The case is just thick enough to keep the sensitive homekeys on the bottom from touching your face during a call.

Perhaps. The in/out of pocket is really a relative opinion unfortunately since some consider any resistance a huge annoyance. I can see the corners being an issue though, especially if you like to keep the phone in front Jean pockets.

To be honest I'm not sure which will fit. I had the otter box and the pt case combo for my inspire and I didn't like either one. Just gets in my way a lot. I like having it in my pocket anyways. Feels safer that way. If you do find one that fits could you please share for other members that like the combo.

Is there a built-in screen protector on any of these cases? Some of the descriptions are unclear, and a built-in would be nice. Having to adhere one to the screen makes my Otterbox Defender unusable, as it would peel the protector off every time.
My mom bought one of these off ebay for her Galaxy S2 and she really liked it. I was considering one for my Skyrocket, but I ended up getting a standard silicone case. I've always had problems with my phone sticking in my pocket. This hybrid case was easier to get in and out of pockets but the rubber parts on the corner did stick a little. After a couple of months, though, I noticed that the plastic part of this hybrid case had cracked in several areas. I'm not sure how it got cracked, because she hasn't dropped the phone or anything. If anyone is interested I can try to post pictures, assuming I can find where she put the damaged case.
I'd definitely be interested in seeing that. I took my Defender off last night (found it was causing some heat issues with ICS) and put a Zagg screen protector on, which more or less rules out the possibility of using the Defender again. I'm torn between one of the other Otterbox cases or a handful of these.
I have this cheapo http://www.ebay.com/itm/White-Kicks...423428?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2a1fef9d04
very similar type of design with the built-in kickstand. Personally the rubber hasn't given me any issues.
FYI, you can find virtually all of these cases on Amazon for less (including shipping) than eBay. Just search "i727 hybrid". If you're planning to mix and match, keep an eye on the manufacturers. Mybat and Case-Xpro seem to be the same company (or, at least, identical designs), but Dragoncell, which makes the cases shown in the OP, uses a different size of plastic mesh than Mybat/Case-Xpro do.
I'm going to order one Dragoncell, one Mybat and one Case-Xpro and see how much I like each. I'll post results here. I mean, $25 for 3 cases (incl. shipping) isn't much to complain about.
I have been using this case for almost a week now and i must say at first it felt bulky, and Yes thats coming from someone with a Note 4. Also its hard to use the Hear Rate monitor but it does work, just needs a little playing around with. In all I got use to the size of the case and now don't even notice it. Its got an awesome design, the Protection i want and is in my budget. Cost only $17 USD which is not bad at all. The case also features a kickstand which I think I already broke... its still works though. You can watch my review on it below if you like.
UPDATE: Its been a week and the case has grown on me but now I seen something else that makes me feel like the Tough Armour is not the best there is.

Hi, I just got my Note 4 and am searching for "the best case" Untill now I was thinking about buying the tough armor..... then I saw your post! What does make you feel this wouldn't be the beste case there is. Is there anything bad about it that you have experienced? I haven't seen the case in real yet, since there is no store in Germany where we can buy it.... we can just order it online and the cheapest price is $27,50 (converted). So about $10 more than in the US. Which case would you recommend more than that?
Appreciate any info. Cheers!
its not too bad, but the flush buttons are SUPER annoying
I have this case. I'm still getting used to the buttons, but I love it in general. The only thing missing IMO would be a holster clip that fit this case with the glass facing inwards. I probably wouldn't even use it for the holster part so much as keeping this badboy sealed up tight when I'm not using it.
Spigen kickstands are a joke, cheap pieces of crap that fall off way too easily. Case might be fine but why include a POS flimsy kickstand?

I switched from this to the Otterbox Symmetry. The otter just seems more protective for some reason.
I just picked up this case. Like it. Sure seems like it will protect the phone for sure. The flush buttons are good for design, but can be tough to find sometimes if you're not looking too close. Fits nice though. I tried an S View case as well as an LED Flip Wallet and hated flipping the front over and behind to use the phone. Like this much better overall.
