Yeah it's awful and that's the inside of the case. I'm gonna look around and find something else, it's a shame as I love the feel of the case but won't miss it pulling out the inside of my pocket each time I take it out.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] t00dy:
anyone tried this one out? os SGS2 or any other phone??

Skinomi TechSkin™ Samsung Function Carbon Fiber Skin Protector

It looks awesome!!!

I just purchased a Zenus Skin Air Metallic for mine.

Have the Case-Mate Barely There case, but not too happy with it.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] zwwel:
I got the offbrand black mesh case from ebay. I actually have never used a bumper or a case for any of my mobile phones and I've been using damn expensive smartphones since 2004 or thereabouts, but I find the SGS2 to be both too thin and too light for my taste.

The case completely changes the phone from something you hold delicately to, well, a phone. The added weight, although minimal, makes the phone feel more sturdy, and the grip offered by the case is excelent. I also find it looks pretty damn nice on the phone, it seems like it was designed to make the phone itself look better rather than to make the case itself stand out.

It took 7 days from payment to my door (Lisbon, Portugal) from South Korea. Hong Kong items, for reference, usually take two weeks. Couldn't be happier really.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Jimbojib:
I'm getting an iStyle case, but why do other cases have a little hole in the upper corner?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sunseaker:
It's not that I'm surprised. I just think that provision should be made in the docks to allow the phones to dock with the official cases at least. It wouldn't take much to incorporate in the design and would add to the user experience and would tie the whole lot together design wise. It's the sort of thing Apple would come up with then everyone would copy.

I just feel at this day and age it should be expected that a phone can dock with the case attached (using official docks and cases).

Decided I want an SGP ultra capsule case. But very unsure whether to take soul black or infinity white.

Which do you guys prefer? :D Would really appreciate some opinions
[Galaxy S II Accessories] phantasia:
Due to that, I ordered both from export prive! :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] MuratNL:
Well that's because we have an extra microphone on the upper corner :-)

İ guess it is for noise cancellation.

Please (anybody) correct me if i'm wrong.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jodeltje:
it's for the korean model which has a dvb antenna.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] drwhyung:
The iStyle has an openning in the corner as well.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] bondapher:
The pink case is nice
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Tijmen:
Just got my silke in today, I really like it. I only feel like the upper microphone hole is a bit misaligned. If anyone wants pics i'll be happy to provide them, but there are quite some so i won't bother unless requested.

[And has anyone ordered / has the sgp neo hybrid case? I really like the yellow one, but would like to now what it feels like. And besides, I guess i'll use this one for a few days before ordering a new one...]

They're only shipping from the 4th of july, nevertheless i would like to see pics if someone recieves it!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Larsko:
im very pleased with the cases from case mate.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] CitizenDildo:
It looks pretty amazing. Although is it really protective from falls and etc'?

The white parts at the sides, are they plastic or silicone?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Lakitu:
I did a couple of quick reviews.

One for a button case which I've not seen anyone else here has:

And one for the SGP Ultra Silke mentioned a few times in this thread:

http://youtu.be/hOxp3w6D-lg

Now that I have the phone I can say that I really like both of these cases. One for fun and one for more understated times.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] chobie:
Just got my Pleomax case and fits my international version of SGS2 very well! It's very nicely made and the quality of the case is top notch! No regrets at all! :D

I bought it from this ebay seller. They ship very fast and they even take a photo as evidence of your product was shipped. Awesome eh?

There is a couple of carbon fibre cases available on ebay, but again cant be sure if they are 100% real.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] t00dy:
don't like the look, and non-covered top and bottom :S

Zenus Air Jacket has carbon fibre texture, but it's hard case and also doesn't have top and bottom covered
[Galaxy S II Accessories] CamoGeko:
Yeah I think thats true with a lot of Hard Cases if not all of them. My SGS2 got a Case Mate Barely There silver case on it and it looks very good and adds a bit of weight and stability to the phone which I like. Again though it doesn't cover top and bottom very much at all.

Well i bough My S2 a month ago in Singapore and both myself a hard Case.Mate for it It's a nice case 38 Singapore Dollars and came with screen cover.

:D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] holgalee:
Am I right to say that so far all the cases have been for the Korean models of the phone, rather than international?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Beards:
When you say 'All Cases' are you referring to the entire topic?

If so then No... most of the cases listed here are also for the international SGS2.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Pfeffernuss:
Most of them indeed are. Which is a shame. It's the reason why the SGP for example is rather loose.

It's only halve a millimetre difference between the Korean and International phone versions but you can apparently still notice it.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Beards:
As an example of those that fit perfectly see my review of the Zenus E'stime in Chocolate Brown Case for Galaxy S2
[Galaxy S II Accessories] daniel_1983x:
they may "fit perfectly" but the hole on the top right corner is a big reminder that they isnt made for international versions
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Beards:
Which case are you referring to?

Rugged Case

Hello

I'd need a case that makes my S2 kind of rugged. The S2 is equipped with a TPU cover, but the backdraw is, there is no dust protection and the display is only protected by one of these antiscretch stickers. I'd need something that protects the display at least a bit from impact because I'm carrying the phone with me on building sites allot. I'd need something like the Amphibix Waterproof thing or SEaLABox, but in stead of water proof it would have to be display impact saving, schock protecting and all buttons accessible.

If it gets thicker, that would not be of any worry to me, better a save and thick phone than a thin damaged one ;)

So far I didn't see anything like that, so my question is if anybody has seen a product that fits my needs at least partial.

Many Thanks

Regards

Casaper

Otterbox cases are your best choice. They have been announced and they will be available soon.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] casaper:
Hello

Looks very nice. Don't know when this would be available here in switzerland tho. One online store (digitec) has it allready listed, but with unknown delivery date.

If I don't find any thing that protects the display from impact and breaking a bit this will probably be my choice as soon as it is available in my country.

I couldn't find any store in my country that has this one even listed.

Thank you for your advice.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Baines93:
Can you post some pictures please, by any chance?

Is it opaque white, or translucent almost completely see-through (like the only "white" ones I can find on ebay...) mate?

Also, I noticed you're from Bracknell! Cool, i'm from Crowthorne!

Matt
[Galaxy S II Accessories] CamoGeko:
Hi mate, oh wow small world lol

I've got the link to the case I bought on ebay (its pure white TPU case, not see through like most you get nowadays), here you go:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260810011816&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

Its delivered from Reading, so pretty much next day. It was that fast for me.

I'll try and post some of my own pics of it tomorrow, but it really looks exactly like this:

There are more and more cases being released every week. I've already got 4, including the one above. :D It's the one I have on the most, looks so clean. Great construction.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] R3Y:
I have the same one, except mine is black. The quality is very good and there is no cut at the top corner for those Korean models.

I too got it from ebay for just 99 cents(Won in bidding)

It is a very sexy phone case and comes with a free screen protector.

ALERT*******

My friend and I just came back from CPW.

DO NOT GET THE CASEMATE SGSII CASE (one with the big S Going across the back cover) It echoes!!

Manager opened up another one right infront of us and it did the same rofl. I told my friend to get the sgp capsule.

Seriously though....awful build...appalling.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Baines93:
Ahhh cheers mate! Thanks! I couldn't find it, but I was searching for "White S-LINE" - yeah the S-LINE cases are good, amazing quality for the money... I see no need for an SGP capsule, these are great. I have a black one, which I use most, with a little android sticker applied to the back of it... I also have a red one, a dark blue one with the corner cutout unfortunately, and a lighter blue one , which the ebayer sent to make up for the listing not saying the darker blue one was for the korean phone.

I might try the white one, cause the white SGP capsule looks cool on the black SGSII :)

Tempted to get a casemate pop case though, they look really smart, and I may even use the stand sometimes :p

Matt
[Galaxy S II Accessories] TechKidTarek:
Can you please me more specific on what case as casemate make a lot of cases

This white AMZER case is nice:

Also has anyone got one of these:

Has it really got that stupid cut out on the top left corner?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Lownita:
Get a Case Mate Tough Case, it is best protection!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] remzicavdar:
Whats the difrens???
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Baines93:
Yes that one :) - not sure I can justify £25 though... but it looks almost as tough as the tough case... which I would pay £25 for, and could justify, but don't really like... Just hard to justify the pop case when my £2.90 TPU S-LINE cases are so good! Just fancy a change.

I want Speck to make an SGS2 case... the ipod touch speck candyshell was easily worth the £18 I paid, unlike the InCase Slider I had.

They made a case for the i9000 but it wasn't a CandyShell, like the one I had on my ipod... I don't know why, but I really trusted that case! Just fitted snugly, and it was the first case I had with a hard shell, and a shock absorbing silicone inside... and it looked great too, in my opinion... the Casemate tough I understand is the same, but imo, isn't attractive and doesn't manage to pull off the extra bulk for me personally.

Speck make candyshells for the latest HTC's... so maybe I should drop them an email?

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Baines93:
For anyone who likes the look of the Speck cases I posted a link to... livechat operator just said this, hopefully the 20% off code will still work when they get the SGS2 case on the website too!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] CamoGeko:
Yeah they make some good cases.

I decided to get the blue AMZER one, its slightly cheaper on their website:

Should get it in few days. :p

Just received my SGP Capsule White [$25] from GUT Korea:

- Perfect fit

- protect all around

- glitter is so minimal, you wont notice unless you check it very very close and in the light

- outer button is very useful

- does not leave fingerprint

- give the phone a firm grip

if you guys have any question, go ahead !

PS: also received this nice shirt :p
[Galaxy S II Accessories] chobie:
Hmmm... I don't think Casemate makes those cases with a big S on the back.

has anyone ordered this?

http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/Capdase-Soft...951945?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item20bb37d549

i have used the same series for my hd2 and found it really good.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Declan79:
thanks mate for the link, think i will buy that
[Galaxy S II Accessories] tbong777:
Yep..I like the soft jacket case. Only problem is, it's really sticky and generally I don't care for cases as they make the sticky rubber backed handset tougher to get in and out of the pocket. I use them the first month when the phone is new then I just carry the phone without it.

So now I don't use it most of the time. One of the things I like best about the handset (and the captivate) was how thin it is. Invisible in a pocket. Even the soft rubber cases make it a whole different device. Chunky and thick.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ymtan:
are you refering to this particular case for sgs2 or the similar series for other devices?

i used this for my first 3 months and have no sticky issue till i switched to otterbox defender..

As otterbox is taking a long time to get their case out for sgs2 i would like to get something in the meantime to protect my phone...

BTW...

i found this as well and i have just ordered it.

http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/Black-Soft-T...ccessories&hash=item45fa0b702d#ht_2702wt_1139

from the pictures i can see that they is a difference that this covers up the camera area as compared a few post before where the camera area is left exposed.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Eienkei:
I don't know which one to go for:

Case Mate Tough Case

or

Case Mate Pop! Case

I really like the Pop! but is it safe enough like Tough Case?

Need your ideas!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] tbong777:
Yeah That looks easier to get in and out of pockets than the one I was using.

I am not using any case right now. The rubber lip around the screen bugged me and made the phone feel too thick. Its that soft rubber "three for $2" deal one gets off Ebay from Hong Kong in three different colors. LOL

Thankfully, I am not anal about scratches and nicks. That's why I won't use those screen protector type "skins". They are fine for protection of the cosmetics but don't protect against a drop.

I even wonder what it takes to scratch the "gorilla" glass and if screen protectors are really all that necessary for normal use. Hell, I carried my Captivate in my pocket with lose change and even keys for months without a screen protector never had a scratch on the glass. There were a few scratches and nicks on the plastic edge though. The buyer didn't seem to mind.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] bruflot:
Goto youtube.com/samjpullen

He have reviewed these cases + some others.

Personally I'm waiting for my barely there case :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] AvRS:
Thanks for posting the link I've been constantly checking for this case as my one that I had on my hd2 was by far the best case I've used. I'm currently using a casemate soft skin which is awful to get in and out of the pocket as its like rubber and never had an issue with the capdase. Will check if I can get it in the UK first.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] CamoGeko:
Ok guys I did a pic with all my cases:

From left to right:

1. AMZER Blue Jelly case

2. White S-LINE wave TPU case

3. Official Samsung Galaxy S2 Vent hard case (clip on)

4. Black Kickstand silicone case

5. Casemate "Barely There" Silver hard case (clip on)

---

So far I have to say that my favourite one is the white S-Line case, it sits perfectly on the phone. Add's adequate protection and doesnt feel rubbery.

:D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] AvRS:
I couldn't find the capdase in the UK so ordered it from the MobiMega main site as their ebay site wouldn't ship to the UK: http://www.mobimega.com/capdase-soft-jacket-2-xpose-case-for-galaxy-s2-i9100.html

Gone for the smoke but was tempted by the milky. Not bad for £9.41 but now the agonising wait 6-20 working days....
[Galaxy S II Accessories] tomqman:
whos going to order one of these bad boys XD
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ithehappy:
Guys someone using the CaseMate Barely There case can say that, Does it protect the screen or not?

Regards.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] CamoGeko:
It does overlap the screen a little bit on the sides, but not by much. Definitely wouldn't be very protected if you dropped it.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] cashisback:
I have the Case Mate Pop and i must say it makes the phone look nicer, feel nicer and a kickstand to top it off. It's a great case. but i think i should have got a black one though... maybe later ;)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] 0mie:
More colors in-stock now :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ymtan:
Can you post a review once you get it? Or pm me to tell me if the quality is as good as the one on hd2
[Galaxy S II Accessories] AvRS:
Will do, hopefully it's not too long a wait as I've never bought from them or Hong Kong before.

@0mie: Forgive me if I'm wrong but I'm sure self promotion of things you sell is against forum rules and you're the only person I've seen post about cases from your site so couldn't be any more obvious.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ithehappy:
Thanks fyi. So it won't be good for me.

SGP Cases

Hi Guys,

I'm getting a Singapore GS2 in a week, and so far I've trawled the thread and am impressed with the SGP cases, but I'm also wary of silicone cases and such. I've read the reviews and seen the photos of:

Ultra Silke

Ultra Capsule

Neo Hybrid

Linear Pure Slider

Of course, the last 2 being newer models and being less of a soft case, I would prefer them. Meanwhile, the softcase/semirigid hybrid in Neo Hybrid seems like an interesting idea, and less plasticky/more sophisticated than the Pure Slider style. What are your thoughts on this in general?

Also including your thoughts on getting a case from SGP, with the usual antennae opening for Korean versions. Also, would the Neo Hybrid have the Korean/International size issues like I read was happening with the Zenus cases?

Thanks Thanks Thanks!!!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] erazer007:
Well I've tried the Ultra Silke and I have an Ultra Capsule coming in.

The Ultra Silke has an opening for the antenna. But it fits my UK GS II perfectly. No issue with fitting. The case also retains the shape and size of the device very well.

Its ideal for those who need scratch protection and slight bumps. But it might not help with big falls.

Another good thing is that its totally fingerprint and dust resistant.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ymtan:
You can try asking in the thread on hardwarezone. Its a sticky thread so it will be easy to find
