Anyone have any tips on the best place to get an s-view case that is good? Looking for a cheaper version of the real one or if anyone knows of of a good knockoff. Thanks.

There is a Spigen case with S-View for Galaxy S4. It looks quite interesting:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=455344027&pf_rd_i=468294
Tigerdirect has genuine Samsung wireless charging s-view cases in white for $5 after a $25 rebate. Got mine today. I like the way it looks. It sits flat on the screen. It charges wirelessly without any fiddling. But there is no hole for the notification light. And it can be a little tough to open it since the cover fits flush with the edge. If I get the rebate, $5 well spent.
Is there any way to open apps like camera using the s-view on Galaxy S4?

My fiance bought the s4 today and of course needed a case and screen protector. She got her case but when i saw they wanted $20 to $25 for screen protectors i put her S3 next to her S4 and eyed the screens up and told em no thanks ill pu one of my extra S3 ones on. He looked at me with a confused look lol. Anyway got home got one of my ebay screen protectors and it fit just fine. Its not %100 perfect but id say about %95. From the home button up to the top of the screen its perfect. But the protector i used didnt cover the led indicator or sensor. Ill take some pics when she gets back. The reason im posting this is to maybe save some people from buying the over priced ones in stores. If you put it on and dont lime the fit it will atleast hold you over until you can find cheaper

Good call, when I was getting mine at the sprint store they tried to sell me some super overpriced screen protectors. I know I'll probably end up buying a nice one online eventually once the accessories get rolling out but for the meantime I'll grab one of my many cheap S3 screen protectors laying around ahaha!

I also used a S3 screen protector saved me some cash.
I think the better advice is to never buy screen protectors (or any other accessories, really) in stores. It's almost always much cheaper online.
Zagg has the one for the S4 out - got it on ebay for $13.84.
I got 3 screen protectors for $3

In germany, we have this one working very good:
MediaDevil-Magicscreen Galaxy S4 @ amazon
Did not find that in US-Store
Has anyone pre ordered the UAG case for the S4? I had it on my S3 and it was by far the best case out there. I'm thinking of getting the one for the S4. It's a bit pricey though at 35.

They are great cases, but the price will drop fast and quick. It did for the S3 anyway.
I'm already on record saying UAG availability will decide my next phone for me. They are great cases.

I really like the dot dash design of the UAG case for the Note II. Wish it was an option.

Yeah its a bit odd that the Note 2 design is different. Once the case is officially out on Amazon I'll get it on prime. Geat cases.

I have one ordered from Amazon that is supposed to be in on the 15th. No matter what card I use on the UAG website it wont take it, I get this:
Error from gateway:
This transaction cannot be accepted
Bummer, anyway I just emailed them about it.
Does anyone know what kind of material is on the top and bottom. It looks rubbery. I really want this case but not if its going to get stuck in my pocket.

It was rubber on the S3. Not Silicone, more like a hard rubber, that does have a little give. It doesn't get very linty.
Anyone that have used both UAG and the Otterbox Commuter cases, can you comment on how UAG compares? I would definitely love only one piece for a case vs 2 if I can get the same or better protection.
I am planning to get s4 when Frys gets 32GB ..... and I love the look of this case. Is there anything else out there similar to the UAG (just for comparison)? Thanks!

You didn't say what kind of dock you are searching for (desktop, car, etc) but I just ordered the Belkin desktop dock for $25 shipped. Its design lends itself well to cases. I wanted a reputable brand; there are tons of "cheap" Chinese docks on eBay and sites like DealExtreme but they are often very poor quality.
i got my car dock from verizon it clips onto my vent & it clamps down to the phone, with cushions of course.
only cost me $15 with my 25% discount
The smart dock for the note 2 works with some cases. I use it with a DBA cases ultra with no problems. And it charges at 2amps. I yse it every night to charge my s4. Here is a link

Because the s4 is basically the same physical body as the s3, it should work fine in any s3 dock, but when I went to order an s3 dock, they had the option for s4 (no difference?) but I'll find out soon enough.
I need a desktop dock

I got the Belkin dock, the build quality is good but my s4 will only connect without a case. I have considered cutting some of the plastic away but the USB port to make a better connection but not got round to it yet.
The S4 actually connects better without a case to the zenis dock I used on my s2.

I'm guessing you have a pretty thick case. I use a thin case.

With the spigen neo hybrid there is no chance of it connecting but even had a little trouble with the Samsung genuine flip case that adds nothing to the size of the s4. I can use the flip case on my old zenis s2 dock fine.

Considering they don't make an otterbox(yet) and the only available tough case is the casemate(which is out of stock currently) I ordered this
Stealth Ranger Case
(http://www.ion-factory.com/Xperia-Z_StealthRanger.php)
Allegedly, it's supposed to be extremely durable, I will keep you guys posted once I have it in hand.
It's also on ebay
http://www.ebay.com/itm/300940003426?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
did you check on the case mate website and Amazon? usually one will have stock if the other doesn't.
that case looks cool but doesn't look like it would protect the phone if it dropped screen size down.

Yea, the casemate site directly, said it was "temporarily out of stock", ebay the only tough one available in to order in the US at the time of looking would make my xperia look like a tangerine, I did check amazon too, but I find that if I were to get a dual layer case for it, it would be the body glove diamond case, it's about half the price, and doesn't look too different, and yes I'm aware how silly I sound thinking about the cost of a case considering what I just paid for this phone lol
very nice case, its subtle, thin, has a good feel to it, if you need something more rugged, I would suggest either the body glove diamond case, or the case mate tough case.
Mind post some pics of that awesome case? How much it cost to ship to Singapore?
