GS3 Case discussion thread

Still hoping Seidio offers a Surface Case for the Note II. Still have seen no indication they will, but I am optimistic given the company's past history.
 
i got this Pandamimi Dexule Metallic Hard Case with Brushed Aluminum yesterday...i think my GS3 looks like a million bucks, it comes with a screen protector, a stylus and the case !!!!!!

I really like it :) below is a pic of my phone

Our SURFACE with Metal Kickstand Cases and Combos as well as our ACTIVE with Metal Kickstand Cases and Combos are now shipping!
 
I got my Acase Superleggera Pro today, thanks to this thread and Newegg.com. I'm very happy with it. It's a balance of protection without too much bulk. I love the feel of the buttons. I was getting tired of accidentally hitting the wake/power button just picking up the phone. They are still easy to push, but not on accident.

I'm not seeing the Surface kickstand case. I have the Active Come with the kickstand and love it. But I would really like the Surface Combo with kickstand.

and this is the third case i bought...for my extended battery

this is the Hyperion TPU case black.

very tight to put on.

usb hole is not big enough on top so you have to wiggle the cable to secure and stay on
i had to use my exacto knife to cut holes in the power and volume buttons, they were too tight to use

little holes on top and bottom do not math the phones microphones.

it is ugly and the beautiful phone looks like a firestone tire or a fat turtle :) but i could not find anythin else..

UPDATE: Now they say not before Christmas-somebody really screwed the pooch, and it wouldn't be too bad but the owner was doing the "couple more weeks" thing for a 2 months, now not til end of year, if then. If Verizon ever gets an electronic wallet working, I won't care at all anymore...

Ya i ordered one and received that same email...but it is an awesome idea and it looks pretty sweet so idc plus its not that expensive we'll see how it goes i guess but im really lookin forward to getting it...and even with things like google wallet and stuff u still need cards like an id and what if ur phone battery dies...thats how i look at it (could be a nice backup just incase!!)

What color Seidio case did you get? I am looking to get the larger memory version which is only in two colors, blue and white. Wish red was an option on Big Red.

I am torn between the Otterbox Commuter and this case. I currently have an HTC incredible (over two years old) with an Otterbox and after the second month I swear the case saved an inner water experience (IE: Went for a swim). Could have been the case or pure luck.

However the current case/phone together are 11/16" thick, 2 9/16" wide and 4 15/16" tall. I was kinda hoping that while I was gaining height and width with the naked phone, I might be able to drop some thickness even with a protective case.

I need a protective case because I do sports, have kids that play with the phone and tailgate. ;) The Commuter has served me VERY well, but I am not to keen on the colors and thought the Seidio might be a nice jump but I still need the protection.

Have no idea why I don't get auto notifications when someone responds to my posts but ... :(

The blue.... looks great.
 
I just want to give it up to Otterbox for their great warranty service. I've had a Defender on my S3 since getting it in July (pre-order). The Defender was doing fine until about a month ago when the outer shell started stretching, and eventually the bottom/top sections wouldn't stay attached to the inner-shell. Last Thursday (the 8th), I filled out a warranty request online and followed the warranty instructions. Monday I got an email that my "order was received" and is processing. Today a replacement arrived. I'm very happy with the turnaround. Also, the new case seems to be a slightly different material, which is stiffer and not quite the "rubber tire" material of the first Defender case I had which is probably the reason for the stretching. Also, access to the home and soft buttons are less obstructed (which was my only complaint about this case previously). Pressing these buttons is noticeably easier and I don't "miss" and press on the screen instead like I used to with the previous case. I don't know if this case was redesigned or what? Regardless, I'm happy with this case all over again - it's like I have a new phone! :D

Thanks, Otterbox!

Hi,
I had the Otterbox defender with original battery.
Good protection with original look.
I now have the Seido extended back and case.
I'm very happy with this setup as of now.

Not sure if anyone else has this, but i loved the look of it..looks like it could def take a few drops with this casing. I should have it tomorrow.
 
I have Samsung Galaxy S3 leather case. This case provides the perfect protection for my needs. There is a white plastic cradle inside the leather case. The phone snaps securely inside and then a magnet holds the case closed. It is a bit of a hassle to flip it open when you have to hurry to answer a call but for me it isn't much of a nuisance. I like the cover over the glass so I don't have to worry about scratching it when I put it in my purse. The S3 is a large phone and this case is very slim and does not add very much bulk to the phone at all. The case also doesn't cover the side buttons with anything so they are easy to press.
 
I needed a case with a flip cover so I got a Spigen leather case and I really like it. My son didnt want a cover so he got the Urban Armor Gear case and to him it looks cool and I must say I love the feel of it.
