is there a case cover that also protects the lens?

[james_uk]

I am getting a samsung galaxy s2 in the next few days and really want a case cover for it.

My current HTC Desire case is leather and the bit than you fasten the case shut also flips over the lens and protects that, i really want something similar but after a search around they all seem to have the lens completly on show even when the case is closed.

can anyone suggest a case if they know of one?

The case makes the phone a bit thicker so that the lens is no longer protruding outwards; that in itself should be enough protection.

I use this case:

Genuine Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 Mesh Vent Case - Black

The case makes the phone a bit thicker so that the lens is no longer protruding outwards; that in itself should be enough protection.

The lens is made of gorilla glass as far as I know so it should take a bit of a battering anyway.

I'm using a ShockSock, it's basically a neoprene (wetsuit) pencil case without the zipper, one side will be a bit unprotected though.

i have just orded one for my s2, it doesn't cover the lens but as mat said im sure it will be ok.

the one i orded is:

Slimline Carbon Fibre Style Flip Case for Samsung Galaxy S2

Those cleaning cloths you can get for cleaning the screen, you can cut one of those down to size and sit it over the camera hole and your phone will keep it in place over the camera when you put it in the case. I folded a the piece back on itself to make 2 layers for mine.

Also, mind that tab on that case, when it makes contact running over the top of the phone it will do a little wear each time, mine has some barely noticeable rub marks from this (I never trusted it). You might be able to do what I started doing and use your fingernail to hold off the tab a bit and then set it down on the top of the phone, rather than rub-close it.
