What case do you use?

The rubberized outer coating started peeling off my Body Glove case. I tossed it and ordered a cheap TPU case (the same one geekilized uses) from Amazon.com. It fits great and slides easily in and out of my Droid X case. Haven't dropped it yet, but it looks like it will do OK. Just what I was looking for in the first place.
Body glove. Love it its got a great feel
For the record not the plastic 1. Mine is a body glove silicone

I'm using the Otterbox Commuter case, so far I'm EXTREMELY pleased with the outcome. The case didnt increase the overall size compared to my old TPU case, so it even works with my holster.
A pro tip, don't order the Commuter case from Otterbox, use Newegg! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA08901H1508 Save a few bucks! Incredible case!

Ghost armor
Ghost armor is the way to go if you want scratch protection and don't want to lug around rubber. Its about 40 bucks installed, but it comes with a lifetime warranty. Should you not like the color, or if you want to change to carbon fiber, its only 5 bucks for the labor. You can find i online or you can usually find it in a mall kiosk somewhere.

I use the Otterbox commuter case and am really happy with it. Adds a little bit of bulk but a LOT of protection. Also comes with a screen protector. There is a cheaper link on Newegg, but I'm not allowed to post links yet 
Case really depends on what you're looking for. The Ghost Armor skins are really cool if you just want anti-scratch, but if you want any sort of bump/drop/headbutt I'd go with the Otterbox or similar!

Wonderful case
Hey everyone, my first post here, although I've been lurking for a while. Great community, although smaller than others - lots of spirit!
I just wanted to give you all my impressions of the elago BREATHE for the Vibrant/Galaxy S 4G. I can't post links yet, but it's easily found on Amazon for $7.99 + s/h.
The case is outstanding, very decent quality, and feels very well made in the hand. I received it very quickly from the seller. The texture is not smooth, and not rubbery - somewhere in between. The case is not as hard as some other plastic cases but softer, and seems like could absorb some shocks. It does NOT cover at all the top and bottom of the phone (where the ports are, and its obverse side). Rather, it contours the sides and back, with just the corners partially protected. The back is a wonderful mesh which helps with the grip immensely. Most importantly - although it doesn't seem so at first, the case's sides are slightly higher than the screen so if you lay the phone on its face, it will not touch the surface it's sitting on (as long as it's flat). The margin is miniscule, but it is there.
Why did I buy this case? Well it doesn't add on any bulk to the phone, and makes it look absolutely gorgeous - thin, good grip, some protection, wonderful mesh in the back. I would recommend this instead of getting a different battery cover. It feels to be the same quality as some of the higher end iPhone 4 cases I've seen around.
Hope that helped someone decide, I know it took me ages to find a good case for this beauty.

SGS4G case
Hey Guys, I have tried a ton of cases on my SGS4G and I have found these to be the best type of cases. since im new I cant post a link but just google:
Samsung Galaxy S 4G SGH-T959V i9000 Vibrant Black Cell Phone Back Cover
It is not a replacement battery cover, it snaps on over it. I wanted it because it doesn't cover the button or headphone/usb ports. Its really durable and looks pretty cool on the phones. I also like that it doesn't make the phone much bigger, a lot of the rubber and hard cases for these phones add about 1/4 inch to the size.
Hope this helps someone on their search for a case!

All these folks that posted about otterbox have never had the Trident Aegis in their hands. I've had otterbox, and this Trident case blows it away! Just got it! I got it in ballistic green. They also make a few other variations that appear to be discontinued. A real shame, because the other designs are pretty cool too! Someone else who has tried otterbox and then moved to the Trident Aegis needs to speak up! The otterbox folks have been misled into believing they have a quality case!
Hey guys, I need some help on deciding on which case to go with. So far I have it narrowed down to three: Otterbox Commuter, Trident Aegis, and Trident Cyclops.
Right now I have, I think, a tpu case. The issue with it is it doesn't go far enough into the screen to stop it from ruining my invisible shield edges (they're starting to get crappy looking!).
The otterbox seems awesome, but the thing that's stopping me is the dust cover flap for the headphone jack. What's your experience with it? Everyone that I've seen have a flap like that ends up with a flap that won't close.
The Aegis seems good, but from what I see, I think I'll have the same problem as I have with the tpu case.
The cyclops is looking like my best bet, but I'd probably end up removing that screen cover--anyone know how that works? Is it right up against the screen as if you already have an invisible shield or something similar?
Any input would be awesome!

I also got this one. Just a heads up to anyone wanting to get one, the case makes it pretty hard to press the power/volume keys since it fits so snug around the phone, but other than that it looks and feels great.
