http://cgi.ebay.com/Black-Case-3x-Sc...ht_2109wt_1139

I've ordered the 2nd and didn't get it yet but I'm afraid it will be crappy

I ordered one similar and tbh took it off after a day it made the phone look so ugly i have found some more exp ones for £15 which look good but tbh im sticking with my screen protector and thats it .

Yes, first one.

Fits perfect, its durable.

I always make sure i get the gel case not the silicone ones as they really attract the dirt/dust , and some say they have a special coating , "YEAH RIGHT"

yes..and for that price the s tpu case is miles better than those cases..

Hi, I bought blue TPU case.Fit ok,looks ok too,but there is problem with calling and sound quality.People told me,that they can hear them self ( echo ).Without case no problem.Strange don't you think?

Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

I gave up, ordered Rearth case and screen protectors

Should have got one of these.

The textured sides give very nice grip. The description says silicon/gel, but I'm told by someone on this forum it's actually TPU. I can tell you it's nice and firm and feels very protective. Bought mine from a shop called chitterchatter for £5, where I also got my phone from too. Case is even cheaper on ebay. Here's pics I took of mine. Screen protector needs redoing, too many bubbles, lol.

I originally bought one of those silicone ones in the first post, it was quite loose on my phone and the surface kind of stuck to my jeans pocket making it annoying to take out, so I then bought one of the gel/tpu cases that looks identical to the one in the post above, which does a sterling job.

I bought this from ebay for £2.90 and am very pleased with it, collects a bit of dust at the bottom but a lift and gentle blow gets rid of that. Feels grippy and adds a nice bit of bulk to the phone aswell.
