Problem with a seller with that many feedback is, you can go months with purely negative feedback before it affects the % significantly.

The guy's a drop shipper. I actuallly bought a couple of Galaxy Portal cases and some SGS screen protectors from him last week. Had no problems with delivery on the stuff I ordered from him. I asked about the silicone SGS cases at the time and he told me he was currently out of stock - that's why I ended up buying the Zenus case.

ok, well ill order one up at £3.50 you cant really go wrong

If anyone prefers amazon,
heres a link to the item I bought mine from (it was despatched on Monday)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003U6VTOC/ref=oss_product

I ordered one of those yesterday and received an email through to say it had been despatched, hopefully it'll arrive soon.

Just a quick follow up to this, it arrived after a couple of days and for the money the case is great. It fits well and isn't too thick and does it's job of making the phone a lot less slippy.
The screen protector shipped with it was a Terrapin one which is not bad although the edges didn't stick brilliantly.
One thing of note for a few phone calls people were complaining that I sounded muffled and finally I checked the mic and the hole for it in the case was cut but it hadn't gone all of the way through, no wonder people had trouble hearing me.

lol, yea my gfs turned up, i ordered mine the day after here and 3 extra days later it isnt here lol.
hers like you said was a really good fit, surprising for the money, all slots lined up and for £3 even the camera cutout has a small bevel
really good value for money, but if you want a decent screen protector dont buy this one because its included, imho its crap, well compared to my martin fields

The wife got one of these for her galaxy..she thinks its ok, however she is going to buy a jelly one as well as this one gets dusty and covered in little hairs (so she tells me!)
Also the screen protectors edges don't stick very very well.
She'll keep you posted on the jelly one (but its coming from hong kong..so it may be a while!)

as far as im aware its pretty much jelly anyway, i would think the real 'wobbly' ones lol would attract more lint etc

no i don't like those that are really jelly.
those attracts way too much dust.
you can always wash it off, but it's very annoying to do it on a daily basis

yea it looks great, and even better when you put them on the phone.
However, do you know if these i9000 case going to be compatible with samsung Vibrant

it's of the same phone design, no difference in the buttons cut outs
the only difference is in the front facing camera which some of the USA carriers are missing
those cases doesn't cover the front anyways, so it's not an issue

One hell of a steal! I've heard bad things about those tho. Like there is a gap between the two pieces meaning it could more easily come apart if dropped thus allowing water or anything to intrude the case coming into contact with the device. Other than that it would have been my second choice but that was a deal breaker for me.

tried it for the 1st time yesterday for the Spartan Beast in temecula! yes there is a gap when u try to close it. but taking the back cover off ur phone fixes this. i was really iffy about using the case. as i never tested it. took the back case off. used the atlas case and it seals completely. used it the whole race through mud water and the swamp. stayed dry the whole time. quite happy with it. + it has a small part on the case u can put a lanyard!
about people mentioning the sound being drowned or anything because of the case seal. watching my videos it doesnt seem that much. my voice is clear and so are the people around me. havnt tried it for voicecall yet.

Wth, yeah i guess i wouldn't be either xD Great job man! I'm always looking for cheap cases, had to pay the full price for my LifeProof for the Galaxy S5 cause eBay and other places had about the same price, plus that way i don't need to worry if i ever have a warranty claim.

Incipio DualPro Shine case

Saw this pop up and bought one. Had the same brand/model case for my Xperia Z Ultra and it was very nice and great quality. It was the case I ended up using until I sold the phone.
I think I paid around 20 for the xperia version on Amazon... This was a little more but I wanted a case to be here in time for when I get the phone Friday. Samsung is terrible with releasing accessories on time. Who knows when the wallet will be available in the US without waiting for long shipping times from Korea.

Got mine off of eBay

ya I got the light gray as well not a big fan of the color but really hated the cheap look and feel of the case mate that att had and despise with a passion the flip wallet. So far I really like the case and doesnt impede on the edge use, fingerprint scanner, or heart rate monitor on the back. I am taking my truck in for minor body work and was going to see if they could spray the case same color as my truck when they paint it.

Great find. I love holsters too

It just so happened that i still had a Note 2 Otterbox in my closet. You know how you buy a phone and buy the ridiculous over priced case and when the next big thing comes out you buy it and your stuck with that case? Well i have owned every note except for the one to include the Note 4 which my wife got when i got the edge today. I just trying out all my old holsters to see if one would fit and lucky me. I cant imagine that they are even that expensive if you can come accross one on ebay or what have you.

I miss my holster but you know what? I tried out My Seidio Surface Holster from my Note 3 last night and it fits the naked edge perfectly. It is not the spring clip holster model its is the SURFACE case holster model. You have to place the phone upside down because of the power button but it is secure. Seidio has the best cases out there. My note 3 when skidding across the parking lot 60 feet! Not a ding on the case or phone.

Is it possible to get a ccouple of pics? I had my wife snap a couple of mine and send them to me via text. I know some people may only have one phone.

Well, you win I wish almighty God is pleased. Look closely for the logo on the left side (on the third pic).

Using it on my Gold 6P too...its a great case with minimal protection and good grip

It's a good case for the price. But mine got yellow-ish tint and it is 7 months old now. It's plastic so it's expected I guess. I have a Verus case for backup (it bulks already big device quite a lot in my opinion - that's why it's backup)

Mine also had some yellow after a while, but still like the feel...

I just got the three pack in the mail, ordered it as soon as I read your OP and saw how cheap they were on eBay.
Very slick and thin, but I change out cases frequently, and think I'll enjoy having this one in rotation.

I'm glad you like it.

Bought the 3 pack, arrived quickly and in good shape. I changed the back cover from silver to black a few months back, now I'm regretting it. This case looks amazing with a silver phone from what I can see with the pictures posted in this thread. Black, not much, but still fitment is good. It does cut into my pinky with the way I hold the phone, but whatever. It was 6 bucks, lol.

Well I don't know what are you doing with your phone but mine is like new! Also I don't get why a lot of people complain about the pre installed screen protector, it's great and best of all it's free!

Mine is still like it isn't there. The only downside is fingerprint sensor.

I've had my phone for just over a month and the original protector is perfect. I've had the phone in and out of cases several times and there is no peeling and no marks. It feels smooth, like glass, and is clear and clean. Like I said, perfect. ?
I actually bought screen protectors with the phone, unaware that one would be fitted already, and I've had no reason to switch. FWIW I'm also using the included clear case, even though I bought a few others. Goog job, Samsung.

I had a small tear, and I wanted to see if its glass or cover, - so felt the cover kinda coming off and had to peel it eventually. But it was kinda loose too

Pre- installed...Wait where they do that at lol

because customers were complaining about the screen saver scratching and some even sending their phones back over it. Also samsung would send customers for free replacement screen savers. Wasn't worth the hassle in this market for them anymore.

I'm not sure buddy, I installed one of those non glass ones yesterday after I received my U1. It's the type that is installed in two parts and no heat or water is needed. I believe LK and Qitoyo are the same, bought the latter it's ok. Good overage and smooth. 10$ three pack.

It is great actually. The wings that wrap around go just a tiny bit towards the back glass and do not affect the look of the black glass. The wings also help secure the protector from lifting off the edges
I also put a skin on the back to get rid of the fingerprints you get on the black N20U .

I was looking for a topic like this haha. My one actually developed a few bubbles and I had to peel it off a couple of days ago. I received my unit in early September.
I am now struggling to find a good protector that works well with a case. Tried Ringkie but the protector was a way smaller than my phone!! Looks like it was a faulty batch. Tried another one - Apiker, and it peeled off when I putted my phone to my Spigen case despite Apiker advertising it won't.
I am now stranded in the middle of nowhere. Don't know what to buy to have a bubble-free screen and compatible with my Spigen case. Ordered the Spigen screen protector but it has mixed reviews...
I now regret I removed the original one.

Just get the one of the ones mentioned earlier to tied you over . They're a dry applied 3 or 4 stage peel type. I think most are made by the same factory. Leaves about 2mm on edges almost like the factory applied gap.

I couldn't find a single dry protector that would be bubble free and compatible with a case. No matter how hard I try to follow the instructions the protector either has bubbles/spots or peels off when phone is in a case. It just doesn't stick firmly. I will try my luck with Spigen wet protector. It should be compatible with Spigen cases as advertised. Already spent around 40 pounds on different protectors with no luck. I wish Samsung could offer the service for a fee. Their factory screen protector was attached perfectly.

I still have pre-installed screen protector on mine too and it's sitting well and is like new still.
