i got the spigen slim armor, spigen ultra fit, incipio dualpro and the caseology drop protection cases.


spigen slim armor: this is the one i'm using right now. for a dual layer case, it adds minimal bulk. but it's not a "slim fit" case like the ultra fit or an incipio feather. it still lets me use the device with one hand though. i got the electric blue and i think it looks fantastic. it feels pretty good too. the back is a nice polished hard plastic shell while not super grippy, it never feels like the phone is going to slip out of my hand. the one thing is that i do feel that the back cover is going to attract scratches. i already have a SLIGHT scratch from when i was spinning my phone on a table at a bar. oh i almost forgot, one thing i REALLY liked about the case is that there is a lil piece that separates the camera lens and the volume button. small detail but the only case out of the bunch with this feature.

incipio dualpro: this is a great case. i think the materials feel better than their spigen slim armor counterpart. it adds slightly more bulk than the slim armor. if you can barely use the phone with one hand now, i would not recommend this case. the back is a hard rubber and it feels great while adding a solid amount of grip. the material seems like it'd be more resistant to scratches than the polished plastic back of the slim armor. my case didn't fit EXACTLY perfect.. the back bottom part where the 2 pieces meet, the hard cover is raised slightly on one side. it's very minor but the kind of thing that drives me nutty. i'm not sure if this is a problem with all of them or just mine. IF you don't mind extremely minor imperfections and you won't mind the added bulk, the dualpro is better than the slim armor imo.

spigen ultra fit: i had an incipio feather on my gs3. i got bored of the colors so i decided to try the spigen ultra fit in mint. great minimal case. feels good and adds very little bulk. once the "ohhh new shiny toy" phase runs out and i'm a bit less cautious with my g3, i'll probably end up switching to the ultra fit. the ONLY thing that bothers me about the case is the cutout for the korean antenna. if this is not likely to bother you and you're looking for a minimal case, the spigen ultra fit is great. if you like any of the incipio feather colors, i'd probably just get that since it doesn't seem to have the antenna cutout and the quality of the cases are very similar, both great.

caseology drop protection: easily the cheapest case out of the bunch it fits great. doesn't add too much bulk and it's not loose on the sides after it's on the phone. it looks great. there are a bunch of nice looking colors. it feels not so good. it's a flexible rubber material which is important because the amazon page kinda makes them look like a hard shell case. it's a very glossy feel. it's a strange slippery but grippy feel at the same time. but i tend to have clammy hands so it just starts to feel a lil gross. i really wanted to like this case so i could order a couple more in different colors but i can't. it's a shame really.

Can I get a picture of the ultra hybrid case on a white back color, or white phone? I was thinking of doing that with the supcase with the clear back and the black sides. Is the clear back kinda tacky (look not feel)?

I'll post one tomorrow for you (technically later today). It's bit tacky at all its actually a little slippery but the TPU sides help out with that.

Thanks!

I meant does the clear backing look odd. Sometimes clear colors can ruin the looks.

Of all those cases, which do you like the most?

spigen ultra hybrid case (on a white background...). On holiday and the sun is bright so lots of reflections! I think it was the slate colour, and the phone is a black d855 32/3.

nillkin h+ glass screen protector also fitted, though as can be seen is not adhering correctly in the corners. has a couple of scratches from keys in my pocket, though feels nice to the touch;very smooth.

The slim amour is my favorite because it has a tiny stopped above the volume up so you don't touch the camera lens. It also feels the best. Here is the picture you requested

[/COLOR][QUOTE="sprintrjm, post: 54260543, member: 365451"]just ordered this case off amazon.
looks like the most minimal case i could find, beyond getting a vinyl wrap.

I read through the comments on amazon's site and the seller had responded that all the ones sold in the usa would be ones without the antenna cutout.

That's a lie - that is the case I ordered and it had the antenna cuout

Cruzerlite Cases

The Brown Truck of Happiness brought me a gift today: My three Cruzerlite TPU cases!



These are green, black and orange. They fit nicely and only add a little thickness to the phone. The grip is good and I feel more confident holding the phone. There are cutouts in all the places you would expect. The USB cutout fits perfectly with the charger. The headphone cutout is fine with my headphones but too small for my Aux cable that I use in the car.

Amazon Link

They come in 11 colors and currently have a buy 2, get one free promotion going on. Coupon code is in the listing.

I've had one of these on my GNex since I got it so my G3 felt naked without it. The case has held up great despite my abuse.



Galaxy Nexus with 2+ year old Cruzerlite Case

One thing missing from the new case is a gap for holding charms. You can see my charm holder in the GNex picture. Guess I can't act like a teenage girl anymore.

Wont be going to anyone else anytime



Bodyglove Shocksuit

got it for 25 on amazon from a 3rd party dealer with free shipping. only thing i would would do is remove the screen protector, alot like otterboxes, and upgrade to a zagg like protector or the new Glass protector. hopefully it will still fit and the plastic bezel cover wont have an issue
