Verizon Galaxy S III Accessories

originally had the verizon holster case but I bought the aluminum back and cruzerlite clear case. Still wanted to holster my phone so I tried to fit it in the holster with the cruzer lite and its fits snug and looks good

I've got an Otterbox commuter in Glacier white that looks and fits great on my white s3. Feels very safe and secure.

I got the Belkin bumper case. And HD Zagg shield (doesn't have the orange peel of regular zagg).
As someone that generally hates cases, I find the bumper gives me the illusion of no case..but protects the corners very well.
Keeps the phone nice and minimal looking still.

That looks very clean, I also hate cases this seems to be my next case

Was sort of expensive for a bumper (29.99) but I got it at best buy, it's cheaper on Amazon, I just hate ordering stuff.

hi

Trident case on mine. Would like more color choices but nice case otherwise.
Cole

Rather than looks does anyone have any experience with dropping their phone with their respective cases? My life flashed before my eyes a few months ago when I saw my old iPhone 4S dropping from a bag I was carrying. But, the otterbox hybrid case I was using kept the phone safe and secure. While I don't want to go full derp and increase the thickness of the phone too much, I would love to increase the peace of mind with a good case that protects better than it looks.
Thx in advance.

Motorola A2 without a case?

Does anyone carry their Atrix 2 without a case? I have the Otterbox, and I do like it, but it bring so much bulk to it and makes it hard to do something as simple as putting it in my pocket etc...I've been going back and forth.

I don't have any case for my atrix simply cause i can't find one and the otterbox one will cost me around 50$

I'd keep the case on it. Better safe and bulky than sorry and broken.
I have the defender series otterbox and its saved my ass several times.

I have a Body Glove that doesn't add much thickness when I have the stock battery in, and when I have the extended battery I have no case. The body glove is nice.
I'll be selling the whole kit and phone as soon as I pick up the Nexus 4.

I am using a shellster and the shell case itself is sturdy does what it is there to do, safeguarding the mobile, doesnt add much bulk and costs only 850 rs or about $17

I've always used this case and I love it! No bulk, eye catcher and is fully functional with it on. Less then $5 on amazon. Go check it out.

Not at all... Very easy to press. Same goes for the power button and camera button. Those are the only ones covered. Aux, HDMI, Charging port, MIC's, speaker and camera all open. Its a great case. Everyone else seems to gawk over it more then me lol. Probably cuz I'm used to it

Ordered the same earlier today

I use an extended battery, so it doesn't have a case. When I had/have the regular battery in, I use a Body Glove.

I ran an otter box commuter for a long time. After a year and many many drops (I work on a dock), the silicone is tearing and loosening. The plastic has cracked in a couple places. I still swear by them tho. I ran over my ATRIX 1 w the forklift. Visibly it looked fine but the digitizer was toast. Even the glass wasn't broken. Anyways. Long story short I love em. I stopped using a case tho once I went extended batt. If you're gonna rock the box, get one on eBay. Pay about half price.

Usу now my A2 without case, but this looks great.
Its very exepnsive to order somehing from amazon 4 me (live in Ukraine).
Try to find it in local internet stores.
Thank you anyway!

I use a white Ottebox Communter case for 6 months and planed to buy a defender case

My boyfriend used to keep the otterbox case on his A2, he ended up taking it off because of the bulk too... He's been fine without it for about a year now. Still looks new... I think he dropped it once. Haha.

90% of the time my A2 is in the Otterbox case I picked up at the $5 AT&T sale during...last summer? But since I do have a lapdock and the vehicle dock (and am going to be experimenting with a desk dock shortly) ... the case comes off. Thankfully, it's a pretty easy on and off, and I feel like the phone is very safe/protected when it is in the case.
To our Ukrainian friend...your best bet for cases may be something like eBay UK or eBay RU. Good luck!

I have used my atrix without a case for a while through now with a dinged up bezel I regret my choice to carry it naked.

Ooh yeah! lol.... :silly:

I Just received my: Exact(TM) Armor Case for Google Nexus 4 Smart Phone Black (Amazon.com). It fits great with openings for speaker and both microphones. I already have a collection of tpu cases and Google's Bumper. At just a little under $8 shipped it can't be beat!

Received this case as well. I paid $4 and amazon prime upgraded me to one day shipping to avoid the snowstorm. I LOVE this case! Better than me Otterbox commuter case and also better than the ballistic I used to use. For the price this is a no brainer. Also I have not found this case slippery. The grips on the back catch my fingers. This will be my daily.

I just got mine on Friday all I can say is that this is the best 4 bucks I've spent. The case is firm the only problem is that it tries to peel off my screen protector on the side where the proximity sensor is but other than that, this case is very close to what ballistic will be offering

Looks like good protection but damn it looks thick!

Got mine today, looks and feels much better than I expected and darn good quality. Definitely will do the job. Will have to see how it lines up with my screen protector.

What do you think of this new case for our S4?
pretty strange i think lol.

Thats great I quite enjoy my original samsung sview cover only thing it lacked was protection this solves that, if I hadn't ordered the spigen clear cover case for my sview I would be all over this

Like space age pod for your phone

Damnit spigen stahp

i'm not that impressed, especially based on what they are charging and i own 3 spigen cases for my s4... then again, i'm also not happy with their marketing tactics when it comes to the neo hybrid frames.

This really resembles the UAG case I got from amazon for my s3. Was going to go with UAG again but this has a front cover too so may try this first.

Everyone is complaining about the frames on neo hybrid. I'm one of them. And they don't seem to care about. Unfortunately

Wow, that is an awesome case. Looks Spigen is going to be taking more of my money.

What complaints are there about the frames on the neo hybrid? I just got mine today and it's perfect...
Or are we talking about not being able to order the frames individually?

Well I understand that, but honestly I get the feeling they don't have the inventory for that yet. Considering I still had to wait a couple extra days for a black one, it just makes more business sense for them to sell the full units only until they have an excess of frames. Now, in 6 months if they're still selling the case only, then that would be not cool.

The "customization"
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app

it's deceptive marketing with the neo frames. i know if the FTC was made aware Spigen would have two choices: a) offer the frames b) stop marketing the product as customization.

dont know about that.
I wonder if they will only make this one on white,because many people may want some other colors.so maybe they could make at least the same colours they did on slim armor normal cases.

Cool case. I may buy one to use at work (I'm in the construction business). However, using it when I'm not at work - no. It's just too bulky in my opinion.

Clever idea but definitely seems that it would be too bulky for every day use

Otterbox Preserver

http://www.otterbox.com/Preserver-Series-for-Samsung-Galaxy-4/sam20-galaxy-s4,default,pd.html
Anyone thinking of getting one? I'm torn. I love my hornet defender (though the screen protector has proven itself cheaper than my previous defenders), and am torn on giving up that color combo. On the other hand, true waterproof protection could be worth it.

looks pretty solid but slightly too expensive for me.
i got both defender and commuter

The cost does seem prohibitive, but vzw may surprise and stock it, which means a possible discount...

Looks like an exact copy of the lifeproof case lol

Not really. I see quite a bit of differences. The only thing that looks the same is how it covers the home button. Otherwise the top by the speaker and sensors is totally different, more the the obex. The back is completely different as well as the sides

I agree, it doesn't look anything like the lifeproof other than it is a case. The back on the lifeproof (both versions) is completely clear.
Also, although there is no top view released pictures of the Otterbox Preserver, it is obvious that the headphone seal it quite a bit different from the lifeproof.
I was set to plunk down some money for the lifeproof, but the clear back and the flimsy headphone seal drove me away. It will be interesting to see more info on this case. But if it is not released soon, it will be irrelevant.

So this is really just their Armor series re-branded.

They've updated the design of the case. Not an exact copy of LifeProof case anymore. The earpiece looks huge now
