Has anyone here owned one of these? I actually quite like the look of that

Default large lip

I took a look at this case and decided that it wasn't a good fit for me. If you take a look at the pics you can see a substantial lip on the edges of the screen. I had another case with my old 3gs that had less of a lip than this case and I hated it.

It really makes it hard to click letters, numbers or anything else that is relatively close to the edge of the screen.

There is another case by this manufacturer that looks like it has a very minimal edge lip and I plan on getting it when I can afford it. Too bad this isn't a extended batery case

It is the Trident Aegis Series case. XDA would not allow me to post a link to it.

looks a little bulky but i might consider it for the extra battery life.

There is a seller on eBay (moretalktime) who sells custom TPU cases for a lot of phones including the galaxy s 4g with the extended battery.

Ive had the trident cyclops which is basically the same thing without the battery. It has excellent protection but the built in screen protector sucks and is extremely Glare-y (if thats a word lol) also the lip designed to protect the phone when it falls interferes with the screen when typing. I used it for about a week then switched back to my good ol' Otterbox Commuter case.

Oh yeah and yes it does add a lot of weight + thickness.

And the screen protector makes the screen less responsive
