So last night I noticed on the AT&T Premier site the Otter Box commuter case no longer said out of stock. So I went ahead added it to my cart and completed my order! Got the confirmation email and tracking number today! It's due to be here Monday! On the Otter Box site it's still not available. So if anyone has been waiting on an email notifying them that they are ready, just log onto AT&T's accessories site and it should be there. The only one available was the Blue/Black color but the Blue is dark and doesn't look half bad in the pictures. I'll update the post with pictures as soon as it gets here!

I already got mine .. ordered it from my local AT&T store, only difference is, you paid $40 for it .. I paid $34, I complained that the AT&T version was more than Otterbox sells for and also removes the included screen protector that comes with the official Otterbox version.
So .. $34 with free shipping, I got it 2 days later via FedEx .. excellent case, I got the Black Plastic / Night Blue Slip Cover version.

Awesome that you got yours already, but WRONG on the price fella! I have a corporate account and only paid $24 bucks for mine! I can't wait til it comes in! How easily does it slide in and out of your pocket?

Can you post pics of the case with the phone? I've been waiting for this case. Just not sure on the color.
If he doesn't, I'll be posting pics as soon as I get it in on Monday!
I actually have the commuter Otter box, picked it up last Thursday. Its also the blue/black one. Dunno what's up with this blue/black - why? Why not just offer black/black? Prolly returning it. I will say it provides robust protection for your skyrocket. If you happen to have slippery fingers, this should keep it safe and sound so long as the screen doesn't get struck directly. Here's a link to some pictures (they stink but i tried).

That's the Defender, we are talking about the Commuter case, but it does look like it really protects the precious Skyrocket! Here's a few pics of the Commuter I got in today! The Flash makes the blue WAYYY brighter then it actually is! Very tight fit!! Kind of a pain to get it off if you need to remove the battery or SD card!

Is it flushed at the back? And can you take a pic with the case on its side, with the SR beside it? I would like to see the difference in thickness, when they are next to each other.
Got the commuter today also. But having a issue with the silicone ending before the plastic on the back. Which is giving me camera flash issues. Besides that its a nice case.

Have you tried to contact [email protected]? They have excellent customer service.
BTW, can someone in an LTE area go to www.otterbox.com and see if it actually shows their website? I get a weird website without photos on LTE and wifi. Not sure if its because of ad blocking or what. I'm in a rooted stock 2.3.6 rom.

I picked up a Defender case from AT&T two nights ago and the silicone wouldn't fit completely around the hard plastic inside case. AT&T had no more to exchange for, so I called Otterbox but they said they can't warranty it as they don't officially sell it yet, so I had to return it.

Well I think Incipio now has the perfect case. Initially what drew most people away from the Incipio was the lack of a cutout for the HDMI port. I decided that I liked the design and amount of protection of the Silicrylic and that the covered HDMI port didn't bother me so I decided to order one off of ebay.
It just came in today and when I opened it up, it had the cutout for the HDMI port. So apparently Incipio must have recently redesigned the case and I must have gotten one of the newer ones.
I put the case on the phone and it is perfect IMO. I love the fit and there is nothing about it that I would change. I went with the Gray/White one. I can try and get some pics up at some point.
Yep. I went with the black/black. I got it yesterday. I love it, except my HDMI is blocked. Maybe I got an older version.

Ah, that kinda sucks. Even with the HDMI port blocked the case is awesome. I guess I must have got a very recent release. Where did you order yours from?
I actually ordered it from a store on ebay and something got screwed up with the shipping so they refunded the money and said they would send me one for free when they got them back in from their vendor. So I actually didn't expect to get one since they cancelled the transaction and refunded my money so I ordered another one from someone else.
Then when I got home from work today it was sitting in our mailbox from the first company. So I have another one coming in pretty soon (still the gray/white) that I will probably sell. I wonder if the other one that is supposed to come in will have the port cut out or not.
I got mine from Amazon. They had them cheaper than I could find anywhere else.

Thanks a lot for this post. I am going to order another one. I love my Trident Cyclops but it is a little bulky for my needs. I had the silicrylic case when it was first released and sent it right back. Now that they revised it with an hdmi cutout this case has a lot more potential.

No problem. Like I said, I think this now is the perfect case (unless you truly need something where you can throw it off a building and survive).

It looks like a small cutout, can you actually open it up enough to fit the cable in? Also where did you buy it from? I am looking to order one soon.

Yes the door opens and it looks like there is plenty of room to get a cable in there since the connector doesn't look any bigger than the usb connection but I don't have a cable to try.
Here is a pic with the door open:
I got it from these guys on ebay:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/cellularboys/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
I am not sure if they got any more in to put on their ebay store yet, but they obviously sent me mine. I would definitely recommend them because they made sure to make it right for me even though it was a shipping screw up. The part number on the package is SA-149. I am not sure if they would have created a new number for the ones with the cutout or not though.
They have none in stock but I am going to look around tomorrow. Thanks again.

I got one of these cases in the mail yesterday that I ordered directly from their website thinking that way I would get the latest version. The one they sent me has no HDMI port hole.......
I'm not thrilled with the case as it collects pocket lint just as badly as my otterbox commuter does.
I guess I will keep using the shiny black silicone case I got from VZ. That collects no lint at all and it also easier to take on/off for battery swaps.

Sorry to hear that. The second case that I ordered was the one with the HDMI port covered as well. So I must have got pretty lucky with the redesigned one. I don't notice it collecting lint at all, but that may be because the silicone part is white so it may just hide it.

Mine doesn't collect lint either. Maybe you have dirty pockets however the back portion is collecting fingernail scratches like crazy.

LOL, yea maybe that's the problem but the only case I have that doesn't collect lint AT ALL is the hard shiny black silicone case I got right from VZ.
That is also the easiest case to get on/off to swap batteries.

Hello, Just discovered this case which looks completely like the Official bumper case sold in the Play Store, but half the price.
I thinking of canceling my play store order, Seriously £21 is absurd!
Has anyone purchased this?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00AUDSY0K/ref=nosim/?tag=hotukdeals-21
Nice
Just ordered one this lunch time. Looks good and according to reviews its the same thing as the google one.
Nearly paid an extra tenner yesterday for official one, was going to do it today, out of stock, so got this one. Time will tell.
Official Replica? lol...
I have ordered last week I'm just waiting on it to arrive.
Bought this from Amazon UK and it arrived today.
Just contacted seller see email below:
Good evening
I received the bumper case tonight but when I opened the package the rubber back and plastic rim fell apart. I put it back together but it doesn't fit the phone properly and the plastic rim is bowed, due to this when I hold the phone, the sides push on the power button and turn it on and off. It also pushes on the volume rocker and turns the volume up and down on its own.
What next?
Regards

Mine says departure scan from Shenzhen China Rep since yesterday.
Ordered a shenit replica bumper from amazon, got it really fast, around 4 days.
I got to say that I am impressed, very good quality, looks like the original, the plastic in the middle is an imitation of aluminium and looks great, never had an official google bumper but from the pictures I can't tell the difference.
It feels great on the phone, though it gets a little bit bulkier, so I can't use the 1£ pleather pouch I bought for it. I usually hate having cases and stuff on my phones but this one really goes well with it.
Now I need to find another pouch.
Just the job!

Didn't managed to cancel my order for the official one, but received it today nonetheless lol. I think I will keep it, not worth the hassle returning it back.
Funny thing is Google delivered it within 2 days as promised (means nothing), unlike my Nexus which arrived '2 Months' later lol.
So I leave this bumper for others to review.
I'll wait for the unofficial replica

So I was looking to pre-order a Mercury TPU case because they've been very nice on the Nexus and S3.
Amazon had them on the same page as the S3 version, but with odd looking photos showing a TV antenna corner cutout.
Check back at that page a few days later and it's got new photos and new branding -- as Caseology instead of Mercury. Mind you, it's still on the same Amazon page as the Mercurys, sold by Mercury USA, etc.

I don't know, but the price is worth a try. Just ordered one of each, white and white matte. for $1.99 each, you can't really go wrong...in case they are not perfect. lol
interesting... that navy blue case looks nice. Searching caseology on eBay yields no results (well for me anyway).

Yes I did. The product is...not what I wanted. I'll post pictures later, but the white matte case is black on the edges, and not matte at all...the white glossy case is moderately okay. The case is made from a company called nekeda I believe, but the cases were sent from mercury USA, emails were from mercury USA as well. But it isn't a great case at all. The matte case has the right corner cut off for no apparent reason. They are built well at least and everything is cut nicely. I just wouldn't use them. They aren't even attractive to look at...Lol

Yeah, it looks like Mercury (or whoever) is using Goospery as the "real" US case label. The cutout is for the Korean version's TV antenna I believe...
it seem too cheap to be a mercury brand, even tpu mercury will set you at least USD 10, in hong kong and china, 75% of them sold are fakes, and if the seller buys in bulk it's even cheaper.
i ordered a mercury case for my s3 about 2 months ago, very good quality my favorite case so far...for 10 bucks you cant beat it. it said made in NEW YORK on the back, not korea. im willing to bet the korean ones are the fakes. i ordered it from amazon and it said order fullfilled and shipped by mercury usa. now i go to my amazon history and click on the link of my order and it takes me to the caseology version...wtf. maybe caseology bought them out??

Yeah same here. They don't ship until the 27th so I'm gonna decide if I want to get one in the next couple days. I hope they put up a video showing it off soon. I saw a video on how their cases are built and they do seem worth the price.
I bought the silver and black eclipse for my s3 and didnt like it. I was going to exchange it for the black at first but changed my mind and got a refund. Now that I have the S4 I thought about getting the eclipse, but like you said $80 is a lot. To be honest I wasnt all that impressed with it while I had it. The sound boost did work, but other than that I didnt like it all that much. Now if they ever released a white one like they originally showed for the S3 then I might spring for the $80.
My favorite case of ALL the phones I have ever had is my Spigen SGP Neo Hybrid. I might get another color soon. I have the white one now. Im hoping they actually start selling the trim separately so the cases with actually have customizable frames as claimed.

I'm glad you like it. I recommend getting it directly from Spigen. Theres a lot of fakes out there.

I bought the silver and black eclipse for my s3 and didnt like it. I was going to exchange it for the black at first but changed my mind and got a refund. Now that I have the S4 I thought about getting the eclipse, but like you said $80 is a lot. To be honest I wasnt all that impressed with it while I had it. The sound boost did work, but other than that I didnt like it all that much. Now if they ever released a white one like they originally showed for the S3 then I might spring for the $80.
My favorite case of ALL the phones I have ever had is my Spigen SGP Neo Hybrid. I might get another color soon. I have the white one now. Im hoping they actually start selling the trim separately so the cases with actually have customizable frames as claimed.

Ordered my Eclipse case today. They take returns, so I figured I would give it a shot. I loved their cases when I had an iPhone 5. I wish they made an all aluminum bumper like the Sector 5 though. If I don't end up liking this, I may purchase the Draco bumper which was also released today.
I ended up getting the black with silver bezel for my black S4. What didn't you like about the silver bezel? Did you have the white S3? I think the silver will look better on the black.
The Element case prices aren't horrible since you can use the 10% coupon when you register but the shipping stinks at $12 to $20.
$20 overnight means overnight from when they decide to ship it. They say June 27th but if it doesn't ship until a week after that they won't credit you anything.
$12 for 5 day shipping stinks even more.
They could/should just offer $6 3 day USPS like everyone else.

To me the silver didn't match, and it looked like it was spray painted. And yes I have the white s3, and white s4. I'm going to look at that Draco case for the S4 that you mentioned now.
Wow those Draco cases are awesome, but a $100 for a case that's pretty steep.

I hope I like it. I was having a tough time deciding between the black and silver bezel. I knew I wanted the black TPU. I didn't like how the black bezel looks glossy though. And I think the silver will stand out and look better on the black. Their pictures make the silver look matter and looks good on the black S4.
How were the buttons on the S3 version?

The buttons were little bit stiff, not as bad as some hard TPU cases.
Had it on my GS3 and loved it. I bought it on fleabay from an authorized distributor who sold it at MSRP but provided free shipping.

I guess I will go dig around for $80.
Just ordered the silver on black for my S4. I will get back to yall once I get it. So far I've had an Incase Slider(Trash), Spigen Neo Hybrid(Like it but I dropped it once and the right corner has a small knick), UAG(which I'm using right now. I have no issues. I think the case is perfect, and it felt a lot thinner than my Spigen.) Hopefully this eclipse case will impress me. It will be my first Element Case.
Do they work with glass screen protectors?

Spigen products are alright but their customer service is stupid. I ordered a 37$ flip case from them. The stock photos showed the credit card slot going horizontal. When I had gotten it in the mail it was vertical. It wasn't that much of an issue so I just sent a ticket in. About 4 days after I submitted my ticket they sent me one back but they changed the stock photos and they told me that they didn't know what I was talking about. They are super shady so I would watch out.

I sure hope so. I got glas.tr installed on my s4. Hopefully it will be okay. I'll get back to you once I receive the case.

Yeah I've got a glas.tr installed too. I asked them about it on Facebook and they should it should work but wouldn't guarantee it.
I got overnight shipping on my Eclipse, so I'll post right away if it doesn't fit as well.
Should hopefully be shipping today. If it does, I should have it tomorrow. Who knows though, these dates tend to shift often.

Awesome! Thanks for this, I actually ordered the Verus IS AGAIN two days ago. I cancelled my initial order in hopes of finding a deal on them, when it turned over to this week I wanted to make sure I had a case ready for my phone. They go on sale two days later.. ugh! Oh well, I placed a new order and I'll just refuse shipment. Now to wait and see if Spigen has one more case sale, I'll pick up a Neo Hybrid Metal too and compare them!
Thank you for posting this! Got me a nice leather wallet case for $5!

Ugh I just got my metal frame one and I hate it. Its so tight it feels like your gonna break the phone every time you put it in or take it it. Its awful. It also affects signal slightly.

Well any metal frame one will have SOME signal loss but I didn't find anything noticeable. I will agree with the tight fit but the last thing you would want would be a loose case., How do your buttons feel? Mine are difficult to press with the case on. I LOVE the case otherwise.

The buttons are practically useless, there is no feel. I agree about the tightness but it is wayyy too tight. I really thought I was going to break my phone taking it out.

It's a really good case, the kind you can permanently keep on... But the buttons are crap.. You almost have to dig your nail into it for a press.
The case was almost impossible to remove. I needed pliers to pull the tpu out from under the bumper to free one of the corners, so the rest can come off.
Dang! Missed this! Code expired =(
