Default Casemate Barely There Case Screen Protector

Hey guys,

Just took delivery of the barely there case by casemate... Fits pretty good!

I just had a question about the included screen protector... Is anyone surprised how wrong they have got the size of the screen protector?
They have got the whole thing wrong... The grooves are cut all wrong, not size is not even close to right!

Either they put in the wrong phones screen protector or someone at manufacturing had a faulty tape measure!

Heres the picture of what i mean! (apologises for the shadows.. but you get the basic idea)

It seems that is the slimmest of all of cases, is it made of hard plastic or it is rubber case?
On the action site they sell the screen protectors of they same brand and I just wander if they are any good...

Looking forward to see more pictures of your case.

Thanks

This isn't the first person I've seen report getting an incorrect screen protector with their SGS2. I'm expecting one next week so shall see what I get sent.

I am going to try and answer all the questions in one post!

@experia1234 I tried to get a few shot all round to give you a good idea on how it fits. IMHO it doesn't add on much bulk which is good. It feels solidly made and takes away from the plastic feel of the actual cover. I think it feels much more like smooth rubber.

One thing i did notice though, Its very difficult to remove the case if you want to get to the battery... Not saying its a problem, I like that actually..at least i know it wont come off easily if accidentally dropped. It is rather slim and on closer inspection, It looks like its made of hard plastic with a rubber outer coating.

See pictures below! If you need any other views let me know.. ill try to accommodate!

Your screen protector seems to fit perfectly. Where did you purchase yours?

I bought it from amazon uk.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...ef=oss_product

I did not buy the screen protector separately, its the one that comes packaged with the Case. I was just surprised how wrong they got the size of the screen protector. The case itself fits perfectly.

@bendispo..There is no screen protector on it at the moment. I am waiting for some to be delivered from ebay. I can let you know how they fit and feel.
