Oh okay, thanks for the tip! Didn't mean to piss off the mods...oh wait...
Well do you have one? What do you think of it? Looks like it adds a good bit of bulk to an already fairly large device, and those big rubber corners look like they'd make getting the device in and out of pockets a royal PITA.

I won't get one, this SG does not have enough "bulk". I like the HC series, which I owned for my Evo 4G, best case ever!
In the absence of the Ballistic HC being produced, I think I will go with the next best thing which is a Trident case. I plan on getting the Trident Kraken when it's released.
BTW, this is about as slim as it gets for a multi-layer case. If this is too bulky for you, you may want to consider a single layer case.

If you are really a fire medic, then maybe you need that much protection. But don't try to blow smoke up anyone's @ss (sorry...not angry, but couldn't resist using the pun ). Honestly, that case is huge. The Seidio Active case has two layers and is much smaller than this one.
As I haven't seen either in person I can't really comment. But I guess perception is relative, they both seem very similar to me. I had a Seidio Rugged/Combo for my Evo 4G, it was ugly and fell apart, I just could never bring myself to buy another Seidio case.
I have the SC series for my Galaxy sII and it is plenty bulky.

The SG series from Ballistic?
Is it bulkier than you expected a 3 layer case to be?
I've been waiting for this as well, I was on the notify list. The question I have is though: How is this different from the White Impact Triple Combo or BoxWave Resolute? (Both of those two are the same identical case btw, just cheaper on ebay)
I'm looking on the Ballistic website and I can't surmise that there's much. Does anyone know differently? or does anyone own both of these (or is planning on owning both of these)?
Good question... Im either getting this or the casemate tough(but it's out of stock atm).

Your welcome. I just picked up a Moshi reusable screen guard after confirming it fits under the case. I believe it should work under the Seidio too when it comes Monday. I will see.

Ballistic HC page is up, enter your email for updates. It looks like the case has more protection for the camera area than the SG.
The optional outer layer looks different from the Evo 4G. It appears to have both camera and kickstand available with the outer layer.

doesnt look bad for a tough case, are they typically better quality than otterbox?

I know the original Evo 4G Otterbox Defender case was not made at the same factory as the iPhone cases. Thus, there was a seriously lower level of quality. However, regardless of variables, I have found Ballistic cases to be far sturdier than Otterbox. The top of the line Otterbox Defender can barely be compared to the Ballistic mid-level SG offering.
The advantage of Ballistic is that the outer layer is optional. When you strip off the outer layer, you have a case of similar size to the Otterbox Defender and it's still far superior to the Otterbox.
Just so you know I don't work for Ballistic, I will say that I am considering a Trident Kraken this go round also. And in reality, I will take whichever I can get my hands on first.
I think I might have to get one of these...
With me being in the military and about to deploy, I want this case. Too bad is out of stock...

I hate Zagg, that's what I've used for the past year, it took quite a while to lose the gripped feel.
I just caved in and bought the Otterbox Defender, it should hold me over until Ballistic or Trident put something nicer out. I'm not an Otterbox fan, but the alternative was the Seidio Rugged which didn't last long on my Evo 4G.
Otterbox don't have jack on this one. Will definitely be getting it.

There are other wet screen protector options that offer just as much protection without the orange peel and grippiness. I don't know what's available for the 3D though...
True, but I personally used my dental grinder at work on the zagg to confirm its claim. So ever since then, I haven't had the urge to try anything else. I'm a creature of habit.

Be careful with that. They (Sprint) charge $4.99 per minute if you're going to Iraq, and $5.99 per minute for Afghanistan. Be sure to turn every sync feature off, and just use WiFi (if you have a signal near you) on your phone if you plan on bringing it.

This looks like a nice case, but how much bulk is it going to add? That thing looks like a monster. The Seidio Active is only 2.2mm, and still that is going to be quite a bit, I don't think I could deal with much more than that.

OK, I'm not a fan. Its an OtterBox knockoff without the hard plastic case. But $9.00, you have nothing to loose!
Isn't it more like this one?
http://www.amazon.com/Technocel-Hol...QO/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1326241379&sr=8-12
For the price I'd go with Technocel over ebay's version. I actually have it and it's quite nice.
Believe it or not they are the SAME EXACT item. Technocel asks a manufacturer in China to make it, then they make it for Technocel, then sell some on eBay themselves. I ran into the same situation with the following:
this Amazon case
and
this eBay case
SAME THING!
I got it on eBay for $2.95 + free shipping.
BoxWave was going to sell it for $19.95 and a shipping charge. I bought it from eBay, while BoxWave was having a pre-sale. (It would be shipped when ready.) People actually paid $19.95 for it.
I emailed the company and told them and their response was "I'm glad you found a similar case."
I sent them the links, and they replied "It is the same, because of this, we will lower our price to $9.95", and they did, but I got the case before it came out in the US directly from the manufacturer at a cheaper price.

The issue I see with this case as well as the Technocel one is the fact neither provide much screen protection in the sense that if your Motorola Photon 4G falls either face down or bounces on the ground and ends up face down, your LCD more than likely will shatter. If I'm not sporting the Otterbox Defender Series case for mine, I'll carry my Motorola Photon 4G in a Trident Aegis Series one. True, the Aegis Series cases don't have a holster clip like the one you reference or the Technocel case/holster combo Mongofrye, but I find the Aegis case by itself is thin enough for keeping in my pocket.

At the same time, both cases provide a lip that protect the screen. At the same time, you have a Gorilla Glass Screen. Now, I love Trident, and I would have a Trident case for my Photon but I could not stand not having a landscape holster. So, that is the only reason why I choose the Defender...
Trident does have wonderful cases though!
Go for the Trident Aegis if you don't mind being without a holster, guys! Great Case!.

i saw this one on amazon and figured it is like the one they sell at the sprint store. I like it because (minus the holster) it is very low profile.
I honestly like very basic protection. i hate adding tons of bulk to my phone. The one on Ebay looks different in the fact that it has a soft inside on the holster and the clip swivels in order to act like a stand. Could be used at a desk and you could flip it around to allow charging while in landscape mode.
Either way, i looked a little deeper into amazon and found i think the same one as the one you posted above for only $2.99 + .99 shipping. I went ahead and ordered it. I'll report back on quality.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006L8APYQ/ref=oh_o03_s00_i00_details
In my opinion, the TPU cases provide probably the best protection with the least amount of bulk, but i just can't stand that there aren't cutouts over the volume and camera buttons. Such a pain. If anyone can find me one, i'll jump on it.
This is just another instance where the case is the EXACT same as the Technocel case listed above, and for this reason, I'm gonna go ahead and order it. Savingsss, oh, how I love savings!

Sorry for the rant but the lack of quality accessories for this tablet is killing me.
Apparently no one wants to put money into a device that may not even survive a few months. You will only get the low end stuff really. Everyone knows Apple is the real deal and isn't going anywhere....so it is a sure bet to invest. Remember, you don't need to sell Apple stock, it sells itself.
I have yet to buy one, but this is one of the few I have seen that says it is actual leather.
http://www.skindigitalstore.com/categories/ASUS-Transformer-Prime-TF201/
If you get one and like it let me know.
My friend has a roocase for his og nd its very nice.. Here is a link to one, but they make several. I like this one because the tablet is in a "detachable" sleeve. (I have a substantially similar version made by MiniSuit but it's very cheap leather - looks fine from any distance, but for $14 I know it's not good quality - it serves a purpose and looks fine for my needs.
Anyway..... check Roocase. I've seen and handled that brand and think it is nice. MUCH nicer than most anything else available. If you don't like it, return it.
I have the Caseen Skinny and it's great.
tuff-luv.com has some great albeit pricey leather cases for not only the Prime Tablet but also the Tablet and Keyboard.
The real question is: "Where are all the quality non-leather cases?"
There are tons of options for leather cases with varying degrees of quality, but there are practically no non-leather cases.
I have the cheaper poetic/mono case and it has been great. No complaints.

How is it only going to last a few months? They are releasing the tf 700 in a couple of months, but that will be the same size so if anything the lifetime will be expanded more that it normally would be.
Also this is a good case, I got the exact same type just from a different company called Acase, because it was cheaper priced.

I also looked at the Roocase but I am concerned of the thickness the case would add to the tablet.
I also purchased the Mini Suit case to hold me over and agree that it's made of very very very cheap looking pleather.
So my search continues
I bought this case off of eBay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/260938668106?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
I have several cases from this guy on our Kindles, Nooks, iPad and now TFP. Have had some for over a year and there are holding up great.
The two problems I have with this case is that it will not charge closed or when sitting in landscape as shown.
I was skeptical about different cases i kept finding online. But after taking a proper look at this one --> "GreatShield Multi-Stand Leather Protective Folio Case for ASUS TF201 Eee Pad Transformer Prime"
I went ahead and ordered it. It cost me 20pounds and was shipped from the US. In terms of quality, It is way better than any leather case for any tablet I have seen so far including those for the ipad (and I mean it). I asked someone @ my UNI to guess how much it cost me and he said "probably 70pounds". My point is, it is of the best quality, it looks sleek, professional and prestigious. Even better is the fact that it is tailor made for the transformer prime so all ports are accessible. Its design also doesn't cover up the bezel like most other tablet cases do (something i dislike with a passion).
I trust that if you go ahead and get it, you will not regret it. Here's the amazon UK link
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B006RML5ZO/ref=oh_o02_s00_i00_details
If you live in the US, you can search for it on amazon.com.
I hope this helps.
Cheers mate.
Thanks for the info jdeltree, unfortunately I have already purchased & tried this case
http://www.amazon.com/TF201-Transfo...3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1330033453&sr=1-3
which looks fairly similar and was not happy with the design. Used it for 10 minutes and went back to the cheap minisuit.
Most of my cases in the past did cover the bezel and I kind of got used to that.
I may just bite the bullet and try the Caseen one. At this rate I will end up with a drawer full of these cases in search for the right one.
Going to give the Acase another try tonight to see if I can get used to it.
The saddle leather one coming soon from tuff-luv looks promising. 99£, but saddle leather is a top quality product. Once a picture is available, ill probably order one, as long as I can get it to the states.

I have the caseen one, I'm pretty happy with it.. Doesn't add too much bulk but does add a good amount of protection. I feel the build quality is good too.

I also ordered the Bounce case (it shipped today) and the crystal screen protectors. The Bounce case looked to be the best combination of value, looks, light weight, and protection.

My wife has a TPU for her HTC one and access to the buttons suck!
the bounce looks like a very light weight skin....no additional protection except the fact that it will help avoid getting your phone dinged!
I'm sure once the phone is officially out we'll be getting better cases...patience is not a virtue
OP, if you're looking at Spigen, I like the looks of this one...
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DCIZJEY/ref=ox_sc_act_title_4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2SFKRF5TPZMT5
Looks a little more classy than the one you linked (in my opinion)
Bah, they dropped the prices on the neo hybrid by $10. I'd have considered it at that price Oh well, the Bounce looks great. I'll know in a few days for sure
Spigen is really all over the road on their pricing. First the $1 promo on select items, then they jumped to $29.99, then $34.99, now down to $24.99 its fine to lower the price but they better fix the ones they charged and haven't shipped and perhaps fix those that just shipped as well. It would be good for customer relations.

I would encourage you to make it known via email to them, and get a refund on the difference, clearly someone is messing it up and its going to cost them sales.

Finally on their FB page they are saying if you want one to let them know. They are gauging interest, that what I read in the thread/poll about that case. Since they cannot commit to one I am looking at this instead http://www.seidioonline.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=CSF2SSGT3K-DG Sedio Ledger with metal kickstand. Has magnetic closure and big S-View window. The price is right, I just wish they offered some better color options, but I might get the red/grey combo for some flash.

This looks phenomenal. Just wish it was a bit cheaper. For those who have used flip covers in the past how do you feel about them compared to regular cases? I just ordered the neo hybrid as my first note 3 case and currently have a Seidio active on my note 2 which I like(although it's a bit bulky). But I'm thinking about trying the above Seidio Ledger case when it is released. My biggest concern is it becoming a nuisance with the extra flap hanging around, especially when taking pictures or attempting to use with one hand. Thoughts? Experiences?
I had the Slim Armor View on the GS4 and I didn't find it intrusive at all, I simply flipped the cover back and used the phone as if it wasn't there. The Ledge from Seidio looks to be the same. Obviously when using the camera you won't want the cover folded back even if it does line up, the extra plastic in between the image and the lens will likely cause for crappy images.
Still its a small price to pay for full protection and a view window.

Thanks for the info. I will likely give the Ledger a shot when it releases
I got two SPIGEN Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Case Protective Slim Fit Dual Protection Cover for Galaxy Note III below for $2 lol I thought it wa a accident as they were priced so low. Then they went up to 24.99! I should of bought 10 lol

Received the Bounce from Spigen the other day and without phone inside it fits my Seidio Active holster from the Note 2 very well. The top half of the holster that the screen faces doesn't appear to be wide enough to protect it edge to edge, but sold my Note 2 on 8/31 so I cannot compare.
Yes, I am one of those that uses a holster. At work only though.
I am 6' 3" and 240lbs so I tell myself it doesn't look as obvious, but my wife and kids say otherwise

Seidio should have the Surface and holser friday . Have a couple hybrid Spigens now but I need my surface case and holster. I just don't want to pay the initial price. They will be half price in 6 months.

I have the bounce and it compliments the phone very well. And it looks classy to me. Gives me a good grip too. I am actually preferring it over my sview for now.
I'm looking for a soft silicone case available in Europe but can't find any. I ordered a kwmobile silicone case but I doubt it's even silicone and very cheap feeling. I wanted to try the Pela case but they don't ship to Greece sadly. I'm looking something like the apple silicone case in feel and quality.
Post your Cases!

Let's try searching.. oh wow look. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/post-your-cases.4350519/
Did any of you find any silicone cases in this post? Because I'm checking it regularly but nothing more than the usual ones. I'm looking for a specific type of case and the other thread is for cases that the users have.

What I'm saying is to post your question there instead of another duplicate thread about cases. And that was only one thread, there are multiple existing.
Can you link to the Apple case that you're comparing to please? I'm not familiar with it. I'll also search in the meantime.
NVM. I think I found them. Looking at pictures they look similar to the Google cases. I use one and like it though I think they are overpriced.

They just feel really soft and well made that's all. Of course they're also overpriced since they have an apple on the back. Is the Google one soft? I thought it had more like a tpu feel to it.

No it's not like TPU as far as the texture. It's kinda rigid like TPU, but its texture feels soft.
Yes my friend. Have you looked at the Ghostek line? I've been using this one & love it. It doesn't block my Pixel Stand's(1G) wireless charging, it's not glossy but matte finished, and it's crazy inexpensive (or at least on Amazon).
(I'll find a pic of mine & throw it up for you).

Here you go, if still needed? Very impressive, my G-Case I purchased with my handset was forced into early retirement when this one showed up on the job site!

I just got my Pixel 6 a couple days ago and need to buy one soon too.
Along with case you should think about purchasing a screen protector. I had purchased one for my Galaxy phone and it has lasted for over a year and not one scratch. I dropped it plenty of times and no problems. Also make sure case is one of those shock absorbers.
Honestly I paid for a cheap case and it worked great.
These are just recommendations obviously. I (you) would hate to break these delicate phones haha.
Hope you have a great day!

I was eyeing the ghostek case but not really sure about the hand feel of it. It doesn't seem like a soft one.
I ordered the Google case from Amazon uk. It had a 10 pound offer on it so I thought why not

That's a nice one too, didn't get a deal on it as that never happens to us here with the G-whiz crew! Lol
However, if you glance at Amazon every once in a blue moon like I do, and see one of their PRIME MEMBERS ONLY deals for this one, you might wanna snag one cuz I promise I liked a little better than my Pixel6 ordered case and put him on STANDING BY for a minute! It's as soft, maybe a lil' softer, but the corners and display protection is what got me. The raised edges when flipped on it's face is remarkably Improved vs. my Pixel case, and the corners on my Ghostek remind me almost of the Tech 21 line, if you're familiar? I remember calling them "Shock and Awe" first time I saw the corner buildups! Lol
True story, I'm a Tech 21 fan and was looking for one for my P6 and didn't connect, so I took a chance on my Ghostek and it paid-off because now it's a "WINNER, WINNER, CHICKEN DINNER!" (yw, Ghostek)

You can get back phone skins from Gadgetshieldz or Dbrand so your phone's body doesn't get damaged from cases! I'm using skin and I never get any scratches or dents.

I was most after a soft to touch case. I never had scratches from cases. Today I received my Google case and I can say that is pretty good, especially for less than 25€ that I paid after the discount.

Nice and I bought this skin customized for around $10 from Gadgetshieldz and a tough armor case from Spigen! It is worth it...
