Does the case's lip get on the screen? I'm getting a the spigen curved crystal sp but that covers everything so I don't think I can use a case that will push in the edges. Thanks!

Here are my battery stats using the Hyperion extended battery that spoke about in an earlier post in this thread. This is after my 3rd day of conditioning the battery and with about 4hrs of straight HEAVY usage on the 1st day and moderate usage on the next day.... This battery is F@#$ING AMAZING!!!

2 things bother me tho. not sure if TPU is good for drop protection (which is the main reason for me wanting a case) and whats the deal with the corner with the hole in it lol.

i already have some extended batteries and backs but they dont fit this TPU case, so id have to buy the battery kit and the the case too... grrr.... curse me and my need for a extended batt. its creating all kinds of problems.

TPU is great for drop protection.

i would take your word for it but i dont think you will buy me a new phone if i drop mine in this case and the screen cracks.

any links to vids or anything with a SGS3 being dropped with a TPU case?

Ya, I think it could. I had a TPU case for my Atrix for a year and I dropped it plenty of times, some were pretty high up, from a car door to the pavement, etc. In my experience TPU is great for drops.

Nope, no stretching or peeling, but I've only had it for a few days so far so we"ll see. My Atrix TPU case never did any of those things and I had it for almost a year.

No problem with USB, there's more than enough room around the connector.

Everyone will have slightly different results based on how they have their phone set up, but I think it's safe to say my results are pretty conclusive. I would get roughly 3 hours of screen on time with the OEM battery almost every single day, with this one I've been getting six+. Double the capacity - double the usage time.

Darn cant use this due to just purchased the otterbox defender.

Any suggestions?

Haha ya, I'd definitely go for more battery power, but that's just me. I use my phone for LITERALLY everything, so I need the extra juice.

Does anyone know if its possible to buy this battery in the uk? I searched the whole web but couldn't any seller in the uk.

Thanks for your review of these products! I bought both last week, and should recieve them by thursday. I was curious if they would be worthwhile.
