I just got this case in today. It is basically a really sexy blue brushed metal barely there case. It clips into place very securely and the cut outs are perfectly located. I posted below the ebay page to order it, I will post pics of my phone it soon.

The cons are a) that it is a little bit slippery compared to incipio surface case.
b) The power button is a little bit harder to access.
c) It does not offer the protection of a dual layer case on the top screen side. The frame only wraps slightly past
the screen glass. If it fell directly on theglass it would not offer the protection that a incipio surface case offers.

Pros: Beautiful color and finish, sleek and visibly appealing, lightweight and comfortable in you hand. Really show off the pebble blue version.

That is the case I'm referring to in this thread. Where did you get it for $1?

Ebay. I was lucky enough that no one bided on it but me. When searching of Ebay for this case, try, galaxy s3 hard case then select worldwide

it's nice but how is it affecting your reception? I like the look of these cases because they look sexy but I'm hearing so many complaints that it affects the phone reception and GPS.



signal has not been effected at all. Sucked before, Sucked after. Just kidding!
Seriously, no change at all.


They're both the same case and are not actually metal. Just a plastic with a brush metal finish. Looks good but is quite fragile.

It is a hard plastic, but it is firm and very sturdy. Not fragile at all.




Can you post pictures, also the inside on the case

(pictures) Someone has beaten me to it...
The inside has a felt lining, extremely sturdy and fits perfectly. Also has some rope detail around the camera cuts outs. Looks really sweet. I have had numerous comments on the case and should work perfectly with the new sgp curved glass protector.

Why did you pay $17 for it?:0 the case usually run up to $9 only. I think you should contact the seller and tell him its not as described because its not metal. Chinese sellers most of the time will refund you and let you keep the product.

That was the "buy it now" price, and time was limited. Compared to the $25-$30 incipio cases I figured it was an okay price.

I really like the case, so I will bid on the next one.
