Hey,
What do you guys use/recommend for a slim fascinate case? I like the ones that have part of the top and bottom recessed. I also would like to now your opinions on cases with kickstands.
Thanks.

The OEM Fascinate Kickstand case works well, and adds about a mm of thickness. Kickstand works well. I've dropped the phone about twice on concrete, no damage on the phone and a few dings on the case

The kickstand doesn't potrude out so it stays smooth along the surface of the case. I haven't had any issues with it at all. I've never dropped it in its kickstand position, because.......your not supposed to move it when its in kickstand position. But the kickstand is firmly attached to the case, so no worries about breaking it off unless you force it off yourself. Everyone who has used it mostly has good things to say about it.

I would recommend an otterbox case. I have the cheapest one, it is thin and I have dropped it numerous times- no damage

Thought I'd just pitch in with this:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Fasci...sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&s=mobile&qid=1303942589&sr=8-7

It's quite slim, fits in my pocket easily, it has a nice feel to it, and it's probably one of the cheapest options. I've gone through a few cases with this phone but I never really like the way they made the phone feel. This case on the other hand make the phone feel reeeaal comfy. I actually prefer having it on as opposed to leaving the phone naked.

The only real problems I have with it are that it's a bit of a lint collector and small
parts of the spine may need to be filed down (little sharp bits of excess plastic).

I have the incipio one and i love it. It also can be removed easily if using a dock. I will be picking up a second one actually in a different color I like it so much. It is also only 1mm thick but still provides plenty of protection.

I like the seido ones as well but to me too bulky. My wife loves it though.

I have the OEM Kickstand case and have had nothing but good experiences with it. I've dropped my fascinate once on concrete and there's nothing but a scuff on the edge of the case to show for it. It's sturdy and obviously fits the phone very well. The kickstand is sturdy as well. If you listen to music or watch video the kickstand allows you to access the screen without laying the phone down and covering the speaker.

search amazon for TPU Fascinate you'll get really good cases, they fit very snug on the phone and are slim, shock absorbing and scratch resistant

I've been very really happy with my incipio feather case. I like the "rubber-like back," and out just thick enough to protect the camera lens, which is all I was really concerned about.
