ROCK Galaxy S4 Case or Otterbox Defender ?

As there are many case options and finally gotta make a decision between the ROCK GS4 Case and Otterbox GS4 case, both are enjoyed great reputation so far, and which one would you take ?

Lol, the thanks I gave were a touch screen accident, IMHO you're going after max protection so my choice would be Otterbox Defender, tbh I've been intrigued by the defender since I heard of it, but it does give good screen protection in use which is good.

İ'd also prefer OtterBox. I've got in on my S3 and it's a very great and useful protection. The only question is sales start

some flip case also do good job on protection of screen, I may use normal flip case yet not give up otterbox defender....

Ballistic HC is what I want.

I just want a silicone case for S4, the cute ones. hihihi

I have an EVO 3D like you. I got it on launch and purchased the cheap plastic snap on shell they had at the store. I never dropped the phone or did anything to it and low and behold it put scratches all over the phone where the case made contact with the phone. Since then I havent used a case just keep the phone in my pocket. What experiences have you had with other cases that may be great for the S4. I plan on getting something for the S4 but do not want the case to cause more damage than without.

yes,ROCK case is impressive indeed and they just released new slim case get my breath,compare with otterbox apparently ROCK case get more fashion elements into their design,otter also did good job on design and protection,yet seems they're lack of creative continuously with only a past design and makes otterbox here and there,I would rather try a new style case for my galaxy s4,even once I'm also a fans of otter...

This is outside your question but based on your choices you might want to consider giving the Casemate toughcase a look see.

rock～

I had an OtterBox Commuter for my last phone, which was the thin version. With these phones being as big as they are and compensating with very thin profiles, any rugged case is going to turn your phone into a massive brick.
To top it off, I've never even dropped my phone, but the size that the case adds to it makes it slip out of my hands all the time!

I'd have to agree with the cases I've tried so far. The casemate tough is a good all round case. I'll post a link to my review later.

Rock is not the same level as Otterbox yet. Griffin is closed to Otterbox. Other than that, below one is closed to be Otterbox Defender.
Poetic Revolution Case for Samsung Galaxy S 4
I preordered one on Amazon.com

Have you guys checked out www.tridentcase.com ? I noticed they have a display banner on their website showing a "sneak peek" of their upcoming cases for the S4. I've had their cases in the past, and I must say that I like the fact that their cases come in different levels of protection as well as in a bunch of different colors! Moreover, they always seem to have promotions/discounts and offer free shipping within the U.S....you can't beat that!

Is MoKo Slim Cover Case good?

Hello,
I've bought that Case:
MoKo Slim Cover Case
I've read a lot of reviews about it (at amazon, many people gave the seller 5 stars and 4 stars)...
I watched that video before I bought it, he was talking about the magnetic issue and that this case doesn't have that problem:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bG-8b0V0Ik
Also I've read that review on Amazon: (he said that the case hasn't that problem)
http://www.amazon.com/review/R1M0VCT5DCYSS6/ref=cm_srch_res_rtr_alt_3
So I bought it..
But lately, I knew the magnetic problem and about causing permanent damage to the screen of interfere with S-Pen...
Can I just test the S-Pen while using the case to see if any problem occurs. If nothing happens then it's OK?
Or should I really just remove the magnetic from the case?
Thanks

I'me had the MoKo slim cover case since June.
I have never had the magnet problem.
It does seem to be cracking (the case) and so I have just ordered another one.
It keeps the 8 slim and light.
Enjoy

What do you mean by cracking the case?

Slight chip where the 2 magnets are that hold the case closed.
Still totally usable, but thought I'd get a spare.

Anyone else, please share your knowledge

I've been using a Folio <http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C8T7CCK/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1> and have been quite happy with it for six months now, no problems with the magnet or S-Pen.
I have never tried to clip anything to the magnet either....hehe.

The best case to note 8.0
Protects against minor falls, from the pressure of the books in your backpack
And handy pocket for OTG cable, memory cards, adapters, headsets, phones, loot from the bank, etc.

I've been using a moko case with magnets since may with no Ill effects on the stylus. With the case flipped back, the magnets do cause a distortion in that area through the back of the device, but leaving the cover pen like a book alleviates that problem. No permanent issues.

I think I'm gonna try it today. I hope I don't regret doing that

Well,
It has been 2 weeks now and my S-pen still works good..
But the very corners where the magnets are, the s-pen seems to be diverting a little
Overall, maybe this case is a good one :good:
Note: when the case is closed, the tablet never wake up even if I set an alarm... (Tested it my self)

I have the moko slim fit multi angle case http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Slim-Fit-Multi-angle-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B00BTZG7RU and the alarm works with the case being closed (I just tested it and I'm on Civz 4.2.2 rom). I also have not experienced any issues with the s-pen in the 7 months that I have had it. The quality of the case is also holding up pretty well and I use my tablet pretty much on a daily basis

not the "fit" version.
I tested it again just now,,, NO alarm while the case is closed

Ive been really happy with the poetic case, wont let me post link so i will rectify that. it looks exactly like the moko. When I bought it it was $4.95 with Prime so it was a killer deal.
oh yeah, alarm works when case is closed.

I figured out that only Samsung Alarm isn't working while case is closed
I used "Alarm Clock Xtreme" and it worked perfectly

Look of where the camera is on those cases.

Ya, most of them say they won't be available until afterwards. I believe these are just placeholder images.

Official but non-keyboard case?
I'd like to see a decent first-party case released, I already have a nice portable bluetooth keyboard, so all I want is a wedge shape to prop it up at a couple of angles.

Official cases are on Google Play now!

I've had this case on my N7 and it works great. It protects the sides of the tab where as the official folio does not.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00O3J9QA4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
$5 + $5 shipping.

Hope there is a decent unofficial cover that uses the magnets and doesn't snap onto the back. Want the screen covered but not the back.
The official one looks alright but I don't know if I like how you fold it to make a stand.

Everything wouldn't arrive in time. This is too frustrating!

The official magnet case is up for pre order on w Amazon, I bought it last night.

That's correct it won't, I'm also buying a skin for it I already have a sleeve that I could use and I don't like big cases on tablets. I just want to protect it from scratches. I'm waiting on a tempered glass screen protector for it if someone makes one.

17-28 business days is the ETA

I just noticed that when I hit tried to buy it. It must come from china via epacket if it takes that long.

need help

I order the official HTC case on amazon... I don't know how much protection it will provide, but hopefully it will suffice until some better options pop up.

The official case is for just protection of the screen and be as minimal as possible (like Samsung's flip cover).
If you want something more rock solid you need to wait for other options. The tablet is not even out yet. So there is plenty of time to wait for some better all around protection for this tablet
I will have two cases, one official when I am home, and one more study one when I am on vacation or something like that

Ordered this cover, it looks decent and is pretty cheap.

My favorite case, too. I have it on my N7 Flo and got one for the Tab Pro 12.2. I will get one for the N9, if I get one. After problems with Flo (and some cell reception issues with N5), waiting to see what issues the N9 has before I invest.

Looking for slim and not slippery case

Hi all.. As the title says, I'm looking for a slim case, or bumber, or another thing which has a good grip. I bought a samsung official case along my phone but I did find it too slippery. Moreover, after only a few months (6/7) back was quite damaged ... So, it's time to change..I eagerly look forward your advice ...
Post yours and come to speek about your experience..

Look at: Bomea slim case

I'm rocking the LoHi Samsung Ultimate Slim case right now and I love it. It's slimmer than the TPU cases and not as slippery as the glossy plastic cases.

This looks neat (Y). And also the screen protector seems to be a good one, care to share the link to that one as well?

I would also consider a Speck Candyshell Grip, which is an awesome case. http://www.speckproducts.com/samsun...grip-samsung-galaxy-s6-cases/GS6-CS-GRIP.html . The list price is $35, but you can easily get it much cheaper online.

Yeah.... Look realy great... Not to slim but it's seems to be a good protection, good grip with a nice looK....I'll let myself be tempted ... You got one on your S6 ....?

Yes I do, the first case is slimmer than the caseology but still does not add too much bulk.

If you want thin, try the Incipio NGP: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Incipio-Resistant-S6-Frost/dp/B00TRN9IEK
(Not Dual Pro, which is 2 layered and slightly thicker)
I liken the NGP to Diztronic, but the NGP is way thinner, especially at the bottom of the phone.

Hi, and thank you for your search. It seems slim and she seems to have a good grip. I like the case like this that are not cut into the top and bottom of the phone. However, colors are not really great (in my opinion) but good considering the price we will not complain ...:silly:

It's like a soft touch plastic. Not TPU. The back has holes which are for ventilation. It definitely helps let the heat out instead of trapping it in.

I used this Luphie frame for one day in my Mi5 but threw it away. It doesn't fit perfect - you can make very little vertical movement. But it is not a big problem. It just doesn't feel comfortable for me. Phone is still very slick and easy to drop.
Also tried this one from aliexpres : "AIXUAN-Quicksand-Case-For-Xiaomi-Mi5-M5"
[sorry, as a new user I can't place links]
Highly do not recommend. Very easy to detach and very thin. Nillkin is much better.
Finally I chosen this one: "Luxury Bumper TPU Soft Rubber Skin Case Cover" from ebay
not perfect fit, but overall the best I tested

That's a pity, I was looking for buying it (as soon as I buy the Mi5).
Let's see some other feedback.

So today, the long awaited case of mine has arrived... And it is AWESOME, only if the ~0,2 mm vertical movement does not bug your OCD , but I haven't felt any horizontal sliding.
I never had any drop or slipping issues in my hand before the case arrived, and the case adds even more grip, however, the overall width is 74,8 mm ( measured with calipers, to be exact )
It looks, and feels very premium, the buttons are tactile (also, made of metal), and all the ports are easily reachable.
For this price it's a bargain
PS. the cheapest I've found was on Ebay, but the shipping was extremely slow (~1 month)
