Novoskins UmiX Ultra Thin Bumper? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Anyone tried this case yet? It looks like it would work well with extended batteries and still very thin.

oh nevermind... Standard shipping is 18-26 business days.

Looks awesome! I have a SGP Neo Hybrid EX and the white rubber is getting kinda brown.... I'm thinking about picking up the chrome one. Nobody has tried this out yet?

What's wrong with 18-26 business days ship? Does it make it sketchy?

Shipping from the UK, doesn't sound that bad to me...

Case looks good! I'm digging the white border/black back.
I got these but my SGP backing is beginning to sag (thinking of making it an EX)

No not really, but waiting almost a month for something un-tested take the excitement out of it. I did find they are selling cheaper on the sellers site but the site is a little sketchy. Will post the link later.
One thing i did notice later is that the volume and power buttons aren't covered. Those buttons take the most abuse so having them covered would be nice. Still, I'm very tempted to buy a case.

My White Neo Hybrid is getting a little brown. I might pick up one of these. Just want a review or something first....

Ok, ordered this one: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax..._1_4?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1334182757&sr=1-4
Estimated delivery May 8 - May 21 - I'll report back in a month...
EDIT: FYI the cost listed (if you buy it through Amazon) includes shipping - that's the total cost on my receipt, and S&H is $0.00
EDIT2: As of this morning, the order has shipped - expected delivery May 21st. So whatever the slowest shipping from the UK is, apparently...

If anyone's wondering, I looked at the website and compared the Amazon listing and their site.
This is the same as this.
It's selling for $14.50 on Amazon, and 9 pounds on their website--which is about $14.30 according to Google. The price from the site does not include shipping, another 2 pounds or $3. Amazon is definitely cheaper, since shipping is free.

These are nice looking. I think I will try one out. Thanks for sharing the link.

Arrived today - 9 days from order date - not bad. Pics attached, sorry for the quality - from a work BlackBerry.
Impressions - good fit, minimal bulk, but it gives better coverage than the Rearth Ringke slim I've been using, and feels like it would handle a drop better. The back plate just lies in the "tray", so I had to adjust it once on, but then seemed snug enough. All the ports and mics are open, buttons are easy to reach. Easy on, easy off - stiff enough I don't think it will stretch. Has a bit of a matte finish feel, so won't slide in and out of pocket as easily as the Ringke, but not sticky. Does hold the camera lens off the table, but the front rim is under the face so it does NOT offer any protection when face down.
My Ringke slim is cracking because I remove it multiple times a day to dock, so I think I will use this as a daily once that dies.
Any other questions?

How thick does it make the phone--I have a Casemate Pop and I absolutely hate it because it makes the phone really chunky and thick.

It's definitely there, but thinner than others I've tried - about like the Casemate barely there. The Ringke slim is the best really thin one out there, I think, but you don't get the coverage...
I can live with this - you can tell you're using a case, but it's not bulky by any means.

can you take some pictures of this in pieces. and show how much it makes the phone thicker? how much heavier? is it easy to get in and out of the pocket.... I was thinking about getting the neo hybrid ex but it is a little pricey in my mind.
its extreamly easy to put in and put of pocket. . I'll take a few pics later. It feels great in the hand. I had a Neo hybrid silver one the one that had the rubber backing. This case feels lighter than that one

Is the back rubbery or real "grippy".
The otterbox commuter has mostly slick plastic on the back. I would like a little more grip on the back for my preference which is why I might try this one.

I received both the Commuter and Superleggera Pro today, so I can definitely see what you mean about the plastic shell being slippery on the Commuter. I do love it, though.
The Superleggera is almost identical to the Commuter, except the plastic shell is covered in a rubbery feeling coating. It's definitely got more grip than the Commuter shell, but I wouldn't call it "real" grippy. But in comparison, yes, it's more grippy than the Commuter. My only concern is that the rubbery coating may wear off over time, but we'll only know that once we use them for a while.
The silicone inner piece is much thicker on the Superleggera, but doesn't make the phone any bigger than the Commuter (which doesn't add much bulk at all). One nice thing I noticed...where all four corners of the phone are covered only in silicone on the Commuter, with the Superleggera only one is. The shell covers the corners on the other three, so you seem to have an extra layer of protection in that area.
A darn nice case, especially for the price and fast shipping. I still prefer that built-in port covers on the Commuter, but I'll be using both for sure.
Thanks Kentucky

Just got the case. they delivered on sunday... probably the only redeeming quality of ensenda. anyways i find the sort coating on the hard plastic tp be perfect, the weight to be fairly low and the fit to be very good. the price is outstanding.
it included two screen protectors for the int'l ver. and the top mic is... not right at all. it is in the right position left right but needs to be moved towards the back of the phone. anyways ill post some individual parts pics later on.
Well I have to say, for $9.95 + free 1 day shipping, I'm VERY happy with this purchase. Just got mine and it fits perfect. Not sure about the top mic being covered though. Does that just add to the bottom to allow better pickup for speaker phone, etc.? Which I never use.
Maybe but it serves a far more important purpose. And they is noise canceling, it uses the alternate directions to distinguish white noise and your voice

Extensive Cruzerlite Androidify Review (gtfih)(pics)(gudstuff)(new juicy watermelon)

im extremely picky about things like this. first off, hands down, fully impressed. from the packaging presentation, to the quick shipping, and the product quality.
surprised noones posted pics of the packaging, etc from this company. bigs ups to murphreesboro.
Im really digging the droid "etched" designs. The overall feel is a matte feel on the back, glossy on the edges and inside the "cuts". In certain light the glossy cuts and edge give a very interesting appeal to the case. The raised edge around the camera is a big plus as you wanna protect that cam glass deep in there as much as possible. No problem popping out the stand, easy. All buttons are easily pressable, and the thickness of the casing isnt too much to make it a hassle or annoyance. Power button is properly cut with no overlaps. My monoprice cable fits snug and easily in the port, no trimming necessary with this case.
the fitment is very snug, i see no problems in the future of this getting loose or flopping off. The thickness of the tpu adds no incredible bulk, i prefer slim and sleek protection. Overall, supremely impressed. Ive put the xacto knife away, no cutting or modding necessary for this one. For basically $10, you cant go wrong. Imma grab a lime green one too!!
these following pics taken with the LTE
packaging, zip lock bags, business cards, etc. didnt arrive squished up or anything out of the ordinary.

I have a few...great cases.
Fit is perfect and they look great.
The power button takes getting used to but otherwise one of the best cases to keep overall size down and maintain the form of the phone.
I have the seidio surface holster which this fits into perfectly.

heres a good video review
They had a buy 2 get 1 free with free shipping last I looked, not there now Was like $20 for 3 shipped
Edit: Code is B2G1. $22.70 for 3 cases shipped!
I just got mine in the mail, and so far I'm very happy with it. It fits great, looks and feels like it could be part of the phone itself.
Cutouts are great, I have no problems getting to the keys, and cutouts still feel tight enough that I don't think they will collect dust under there. I kind of wish there was no cutout for the kickstand (since I don't use it), and I think that opening is large enough to trap lint and loose tobacco from my pockets.
The finish is pretty hard and smooth, though not shiny (as you can see from the original poster's pictures). Kinda feels like the back of Samsung Epic.
The ridges on the sides are great, the phone feels more secure in my hand.
Case doesn't seem to add too much bulk (subjectively, of course). Still feels very thin and light.

I own both cases and i would say they are very similar. You cant go wrong with either case and neither one adds much bulk at all to the device.

If you do not have amazon prime I would get them from the brand store @ cruzerlite.com they offer free shipping after 25 USD for domestic orders
How many others had issues with their power button, constantly turning itself off when trying to turn the screen on, seems to get stuck, even though none of the case touches the button...

FYI Amazon also offers free shipping on any order $25 or more, since it qualifies for Amazon's SuperSaver program (called something like that).

Cooler Master TF300 Folio Cover Overview (56k warned!)

Hi all, wouldn't normally post a review of something like this, but I think this is a particularly nice case for the TF300 (tablet only).
Cooler Master are a great manufacturer of mainly PC parts, and when I noticed this on a non-english language site in a review it got me interested.
After a bit of googling, I found it on the Cooler Master Mobile EU site, and it was priced at a whopping €39.99 with €10 delivery! (it worked out at about £45).
Anyway, its available in Silver and Blue (but the blue looks black to me) and I went for the silver.
It is very much like an Apple (boo, hiss) smart cover except that there is no automatic sleep with the TF300. It has a strong magnetic closing, and I would be confident it wouldn't flap open in my bag. It doesn't add too much bulk to the tablet, and feels nice and sturdy. The flap cover feels like it will last a while, and it lets you place it in a couple of useful positions.
With the cover in place and closed, for whatever reason it feels great. I would seriously just walk around with the tablet in the case because of how nice it feels to hold. Really nice and tactile feel with the textured fibre finish, and soft touch plastic.
It is tablet only, but it pops out easy enough to attach to the dock.
I've attached some pics (sorry about quality, light wasn't great in my room), which show off the really nice finish and the carbon fibre texture of this. It is definitely a premium product, and I am happy to use this day to day.

With these I was able to find a local retailer for about €40 Euro or $53 USD with free shipping
Wow. That looks good. The problem is you will need to take it out of the case in order to dock it on the keyboard wouldn't you. Or is there some way to do that without removing it all?

So am I. The annoying thing is that it easy to achieve with right shape/size cut out along the bottom (hinged) edge. I know because I took one of these from Amazon and cut it out with a craft knife. Not too bad as you can see from my review at that link, but still a bit more bulky and not as pretty as this one. I am not sure if you could do the cut out with this case, but I would not want to at £45, as opposed to the less than £10 I spent

Absolutely. This case is definitely not inexpensive. Still, it is one of the best looking I've seen for our tablet.
Sent from my LG-LG855 using Xparent SkyBlue Tapatalk 2
Actually having looked at the pictures on the Master Cooler website I wonder whether it may be usable with a dock. It appears that the bottom hinge of the front flap starts a a little way up the back rather than right at the bottom. Depending upon how far up it may be possible to still slip the dock on without removing the case. It only needs about 13mm or so from my experience with the cut out on my other case.
Could I ask the OP or anybody else to have a look please and see how far up the hinge does start. Or even better if they have a keyboard dock does it enable it to be used without removing the case??? If so I think I see some more money being spent!
Hmmm... if you don't get an answer in here you can always write the manufacturer.:good:

I just tired it and its doable but requites a bit of wiggling.
The back of the dock is a bit hard to press in between the tablet and the cover but it can be done.

The Black/Black case regularly drops down to 1.77$ at night!!! Just a heads up!!!
I assume the two protrusions on the back are to protect the camera when laying the phone down with its screen up?

I bought this before I was sure that I would buy an N3, and if I did I had something cheap to use right away. I also wanted to see how big it felt in my hands, case and all. (pocket too)
First thoughts:
Looks like it's well designed (or at least the mold for making it was).
It feels fairly thin to medium in the sense that it's not too thick, but not so thin it's too thin to provide protection.
I thought it was 2 seperate pieces, it's one piece, the back being hard and the sides being soft.
I would say that the back is about the thickness of 2 credit cards and the side is about 1 card thick.
Sorry I havent bought the phone yet, or else I would provide pics of it in the case.
I'm glad I bought this and well worth the under $10 shipped price tag.
Color affects the price btw, I think the clear ones were more expensive.
I may cut slots near the finger grips to provide more traction. I have a large case for my s2 that had a kickstand that broke out and left a rectangular hole in the center, it allows me to grab it with my finger tips and stretch my thumb all the way across the screen, without tilting my phone to let gravity keep it in my hand, which would cause the screen to rotate.
Plus the holes will help keep the battery cooler, a bit more important in the desert.
I just got it today, and got to say is pretty nice for the price, don't know why the pics show the name on the case but mine don't have it. Which I thought it would when I ordered it. No biggie.

Same. I'm rocking it until my Neo Hybrid gets here. It's not bad. I only paid $3.99 for it so that help me like it more.

Lol I'm waiting on the slim armor and paid 6 bucks for this one on the time being. I'm just glad I have a case that fits, I had it in my trident case for my note 1 the last two days, and it barely fit and none of the holes matched.

Purchased the black case a couple of days ago. Got it for ten bucks on amazon.

Minimalist Bumper without Screws

This looks like a good case for those who like minimalist cases. i have a red aluminum bumper which needs screws .. this one looks very good, does anyone have this case ?
wondering which color would be better for a black phone, if i get a silver one , it will almost look like the phone is without a case
What do you guys think?

Damn it. I really wish I saw this three days ago. Just bought a case with screws, but I like that this one has the ribbing around the case like our phones have on the fake metal. Seriously Damn it. Well post pictures please when you guys get them, maybe I'll order one anyway

whats the color of your phone, if its black i am waiting for the pictures, site only has pictures from a white phone ....
You might have to probably wait another month to get the cases though, they ship only after feb 7 due to Chinese new year.
Looking for bumper or slim case also. I like the metal look.
I would be a little scared that the metal may wear or damage the plastic underneath. I have only had the phone for 2 days. Anyone have issues with damage or chipped edges on these phones?
Other then that loving the phone so far.
These types of cases usually have foam or rubber on the inside to prevent such issues.

I have to say I was worried about the same thing and have had this phone without a case since it came out. I have never dropped it, never carry keys in the same pocket or anything in there and take meticulous care of this phone. I now have three places that chrome trim is chipped without ever doing anything to it, so as I see it, it can't get worse with adding a case

Just ordered it from Amazon. Under $5, you can't beat that. I ordered a gold one hoping that it looks like that other one from the other website you posted. I think they just photo shopped this gold one cause they are all the generic pictures. We'll see

Ordered one two. Doesn't expect to be delivered until February 10th though. :-\
Edit: I really meant delivery is expected February 20-March 10th...facepalm

Just saw that, if you pay for shipping Amazon sends it in 5 days. Free shipping I assume is the bumper coming from China with those expected dates.

I had a metal bumper and it scratched the bezel of the phone
fortunately I was able to get an exchange on extended warranty due to proximity issues, now I have a spanking new phone.
Be careful with metal bumpers

Got my "CITUS" bumper from Amazon today. Like it so much more than bumpers with screws! Love how back is cut out so charger fits good.

Buttons being flush on sides others may not like but personally perfect for me. Easy to feel/find in dark but not as accidentally pressed by my father fingers. Latch is on top side, works far better than anticipated really. Lovin' the blue on black. Also, bottom is cut out so charger size issues should be alleviated.
