I wish BodyGlove made a case for the SGS II similar to their Mirage case for the Captivate. I still think that was the best case out there. It was not a lint magnet, it was easy to remove, it didn't stretch/sag even after numerous times taking it off and putting it back on and it kept the slim feel of the phone.

Agreed I purchased mine the day I bought my Cappy (2 years ago). While I now have the SG 2 for the second time I cannot find a comparable replacement for the Bodyglove! I recently bought the same case for my sons infuse.

PS the one on my Cappy still looks as good as the day I bought it

One of the appeals of this phone is the slim form factor. I used a very thin case from tpu-cases. It seemed to do the protection job and was the thinnest I could find. However, it still was too thick for my liking. So now I'm back to no case. The S II is the most beautiful without a case imho.

I got the Case-Mate Tough case a month ago when I got my sgs2. So far I've really liked it. Its kind of like the casemate pop but slightly less bulky. Its perfect for what I need it for. It has two layers of protection, feels great in the hand, looks nice, fits VERY well n snug, and overall an awesome case that I got for $15 shipped new on Amazon.

Some pros would be
- hard to get on so if u like swapping cases every other day it could be annoying
- the silicon part attracts white powder n lint
- headphone Jack doesn't line up perfectly but it shouldn't hinder anything.

What case would you guys recommend for protection, not too bulky but also looks stylish?

Don't know about stylish, but I care a great deal about protection for my device. I spent a lot of cash and can't afford to damage it. I bought the Otterbox Commuter for mine, and I can attest to its durability and protection for the device. I've dropped my cellie at least six (6) times since I've gotten it, one of those including a 4 foot accidental fling across my bedroom while fixing the sheets on my bed, ending in a solid smack on the wall on the opposite side. My phone still works as it should and I have had no problems.
Looks should not be your priority imo, functionality and protection should be, but then that's just me. You can follow this link to see the otterbox case.

And more prone to damage without protection. I dropped mine a couple days after receipt. Good thing it was just a foot or so. I know it's a pretty solid device, but I'd rather not take any chances. Just my two cents.

I appreciate your opinon thank you. Ive considered the otter box case before but i want something flashy too. I have a regular tpu case and it does fine for me i guess. But im just bored of it being straight black. Its just boring..

I ordered some kind of alternative otterbox case from amazon.

Its black and purple and i got it for $10. Its called something like Premium Hybrid Case

Take a look at the Rearth Ringke case. Very nice slim form factor, good protection and very stylish. Look here for impressions and feedback: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1376899

I've had mine for months now and don't have one complaint. Very satisfied

I like mine too - only issue I've had is the bottom corners started to crack after about 3 months - I take the case off a lot to dock the phone and the on/off has taken a toll...but if I left it on all the time it would be perfect

Just recieved this!

http://www.amazon.com/Premium-Hybri...FWBW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1335020532&sr=8-2

The capacative buttons on the body are very accessible even though the screen shot on amazon shows the slightly cover. The volume buttons and the power buttons are very easy to use. There also seems to be the necessary cut out for everything. Hell it even has a kick stand that works really well.

I havent tested how much of an impact it can endure but nor do i plan on testing that intentionally

Only draw back I could see for some of you is that it does make the phone thicker, maybe a little over twice as thick. But this doesnt bother me as I love the sturdy feel and I feel like my baby is safe

I just saw this on Google images. it really caught my eye, has anyone ever tried it?
*Just looked it up. in order for it to fit the battery cover needs to be removed for the i777.

Just got the i777 greatsheild case. When I first took it out I didn't think it was the good. Once it is on the phone. Feels great!

Power and volume rocker are a little stiff but I don't mind, someone else might.

Looks really nice. Doesn't add much weight to phone and keeps it very slim. The sides have a nice grip texture.

Over all, Im happy with it.

If people want to see pictures of it let me know .

I bought the Acase Superleggera PRO case (Amazon) and I absolutely love it! Its a dual layer case with silicon skin and a polycarbonate outer shell. The polycarbonate shell has a very nice matte feeling to it. For $9, this case is a steal!

Seidio active with the kickstand. Really like mine.

Perfect case for me! Trident Aegis

I am a landscaper, and I really was looking for the case that would give me the best protection while working, and just in life. I got the Trident Aegis first, it seemed, like the best balance of bulk to protection. Then a few days latter, I got the Otterbox commuter. Owning them both, I can say that the Otterbox, can't hold a candle to the Aegis. Totally awesome, the silicon is twice as thick, and so is the abs plastic, it covers all the cracks and seams of the phone, the buttons are awesome, the Aegis even has a dust screen that covers the the speaker phone. Almost all the features I rambles off are absent from the Otterbox. I'm about to buy a second Aegis.

Does anyone know of a case, where I can attach a phone strap b/c the i777 doesn't have one obviously.

Thanks

DankHemingway · May 4, 2012

I have tried so many cases it is insane.

I like a lot of them but decided to keep this case. http://www.amazon.com/CIMO-S-Line-S..._15?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1336138805&sr=1-15

I just received it and it really feels nice but is not too heavy. Really nice case. I also like the SGP hybrid as well but I am really surprised by this case. Also they are all on sell right now.

Check out CIMO cases for realz!
