LMFAO, Slappy! You are too funny!

I, for one, am willing to pay a bit more for a good quality case. 18 months ago, I bought a very cheap silicone flappy-case for my very-soon-to-be-replaced Samsung Eternity :D (UPS is dropping my Infuse TODAY - woo hoo!). I remember taking off the silicone case after about one month of use to give the device a good ol' wipedown. I was super bummed to see that the sides of the phone were all scratched up FROM BEING IN THE CASE! This POS case had actually trapped dirt/dust between itself and the phone and proceeded to chafe itself silly! :mad:

So anyway, I'm going to get a solid, snug, and well made case for my new Infuse.

Having said that, any suggestions on brand and/or model? I am thinking Otterbox Commuter, but am open to anything...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] justanothernoob:
I'm liking the casemate pop case.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] DrGreenLeaf:
I went with the body glove case, have one on my

Cappy, and loved it. So I went with the same one, actually looks just like the one on my Cappy.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kcab87:
Same here, i felt like the carbon fiber-like look was very appealing.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] HushH:
Did you guys find the body glove case in a retail store or order it online? My AT&T store only had the CaseMate Pop and the Ballistic cases.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Deleted member 2842059:
Can you shoot a pic or two?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MNMichael:
Infuse Case

I went with a rubberized hard case, no name with screen protector included for $7 shipped on eBay. It looks quite similar to the CaseMate.

That should tide me over until the OtterBox commuter comes out.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sn707:
I bought the CM Pop when I bought my phone. I just didnt like the feel and size so I exchanged it for the Body Glove case and I am very happy.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kcab87:
heres a pic of the back of the case taken from the at&t wireless website. very sleek in my opinion. And still maintains that slim profile.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] DrGreenLeaf:
I really like the body glove case. Maintains its sleek physique ...to me the other cases just add too much bulk.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] BenKranged:
Uh the Body Glove Mirage case is black with diagonal lines. In my eyes/opinion it does not resemble actual (or imitation) carbon fiber in any way.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rodger-sp:
I made a video review of the case-mate pop case go to my website at http://www.igadgetgeek.com the video is under the android section

[Samsung Infuse 4G] teddy3412:
I use the otter box its a little big but it gets the job done. Ive had it not even a year though and I noticed that the charger flap is getting a crack on the rubber where bit bends. Other than that its not bad. Also once you've opened it a few times it gets easier.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] DVA4890:
I dont have a case yet. But should I get one. I have gone through a iPhone and Tilt 2 and have dropped them but never any screen cracks or problems like that and it was only like once with each phone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] justanothernoob:
Btw I got the grey pop case at the att store.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] DrGreenLeaf:
I would definitely get a case, dropped mine today for the first time... I have the body glove case, it fell out of my hand and hit the sidewalk right on the top right corner from about three feet. Was freaking out, as I looked over it I noticed a bit of dirt on the corner that wiped right off not even the slightest mark.. am so happy I make sure to get a case and screen protector before even really using new phone. Just makes sense.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bluetoothless:
Having issues with Ballistic HC case and holster. Volume buttons don't line up. Can only get volume down regardless of button pressed. Anyone else experiencing same?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] HushH:
I agree. Especially with a phone as light as this. I don't want to test it, but I don't think it would hold up too well if dropped without a case. Also, for me personally the phone is too slick without a case which adds to the likelihood of me dropping it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] FIREONHIGH:
This phone survived me being drunk..on tbe couch and yeahhh,,damn thing sprouted wings and fle:mad:w out of my hands ....it crashed face first on the tile.not a scratch !lol and now i use the balistic case and screen protector.im not paying 549 for this...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] FIREONHIGH:
Im using the ballisitic case .love it..no problems with this case..take it back!!!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] aimfire72:
I got the case-mate "barely there" case at Fry's tonight (couldn't believe they had it!). It's very similar to the Incipio Feather type of cases, very thin. It doesn't offer a ton of protection, but covers the corners which works for me because I always end up dinging phones in that area, lol.

I also have the case-mate POP from AT&T store and will probably keep it also. It's a bit more rugged and will be good to have when doing outdoor stuff and when traveling.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AnyMal:
I was actually surprised by how many cases my AT&T store had: the Pop cases in gray and white, Bodyglove in black, blue, and pink, and whatever Otterbox-like case they had. I ended up with the black Bodyglove and am very pleased with it. I was going to spring for a screen protector as well, that is until I saw the price of $25 :(
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bluetoothless:
The $25 iVisor worth every penny. So easy to remove/apply without damaging it. Wash with dishsoap, air/blow dry/re-apply. Anti-glare takes away some of screen's brilliance though...but no loss in capacitive accuracy
[Samsung Infuse 4G] FIREONHIGH:
Lol!!yeah man im rockin it old school..but at least i wont break it..i will ckeck out the otterbox,if they support the infuse
[Samsung Infuse 4G] wpfn:
Can anyone comment on using the docks with the infuse in a case? I have the case mate from AT&T and would love to know (without actually going to the store) how well the dock's work with this case installed. Anyone?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] nstong:
Is the barely there case gripabble? That' the only reason I want a case for this thing. Its so big I feel its gonna slip out of my hands
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jblues1969:
I'm tempted to take some very fine grit sandpaper and roughen the edges of the phone just a tiny bit rather than get a case.

Maybe someone will put out a 'bumper' style case for the Infuse.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sportedwood:
It makes the phone a little thicker so its easier to grip, its smooth and not textured on the back but also has that soft touch plastic feel to it, I like it. I will keep it on I think, its still super thin with it on and I can toss it around on the desk and in the car more without it getting beat up to fast, my captivate looked bad fast.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rblankman:
Same probelm here with that case. I took it out of the case and put in into the back part first, with the volume side in at an angle first. that allowed me to see the volume buttons lined up. mine works better now but is still touchy. I am thinking the case may need some wear-in time.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Haplodroid:
I'll get a Case-Mate tough case when they come out, I really like those a lot.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rsrocket:
The case-mate tough case is out on amazon just order one.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] docodine:
Just bought Best Buy's Rocketfish snap case, not too bad.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AnyMal:
What does it look like and what colors do they have?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] :
Do you guys know if they make the POP in solid black?

I just can't tell if this case covers everything:

Anyone have one they can shoot a couple pics of?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Papi4baby:
If anyone is looking at the ballistic HC case search eBay for ballistic HC and theres a vendor selling them for 35 dollars and free shipping in the US.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] cranch:
Unless the case is made of screen protectors it wont fit in the dock with any case.

The dock wraps 3/4 of the phone in it as well so not much to do but remove the case if you like using the dock.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] lost2030:
Body Glove case FTW!! love it just like I did when I used it on the Captivate!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] coopas:
I have the case mate case in white with a grey accent, I believe it's the pop. I can take pics of it on the phone if anyone wants.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] SOESANTO:
I like my white Case-Mate pop. the sides are very sturdy and the rubberized part definitely add some grip. ;)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] circa_rider:
Would greatly love a few pics if you can post them! i work at at&t and would like to see about ordering a few for my store. Thanks!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tankmorph:
I really lucked out!

My girl and I both picked up Samsung Infuses last night. I was hesitant to pay premium bucks for cases and such. The sales guy "gave" us both Case Mate pop cases and iVisor screen protectors! He just adjusted the prices of the phones to make them come out even.

:D:D:D:D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hoofadoo:
Holy crap... Lucky!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] coopas:
I'll take some of the white Casemate pop soon.

It's going back though. Rubber is showing signs of wear in corners and some plastic (near USB port) is so thin that it broke. Not terribly impressed.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tight686:
I can't recommend the Rocketfish case from Best Buy enough. It's great and feels slim in the hand. I've received quite a few compliments on it as well.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hoofadoo:
Can we get pictures? I cant find this case anywhere online! I even searched hard on bestbuy.com :confused:
[Samsung Infuse 4G] CapnPez:
I just was at best buy and saw it. It's a rocket fish snap on (if we're talking about the same one). It's very slim. It's the only one I've seen in person so far. I'm about to head to the att store to see what they have.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] waine06:
Go for the CaseMate Pop in Grey. Nice protection. Good fit. Provides grip for this larger phone...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] andrawer:
Surprisingly , I am really liking the 1st case I got for my Infuse...the Body Glove single piece black/gray stripes. And so far it helps the "thin" feeling of the Infuse and appears to be of good quality. I think I got lucky...no buyers regret on this $29.99 case!

I just stopped by the AT&T store and it is much thinner than the Case-mate POP or Ballistic SG (obviously on this one). Also the Ballistic HC is MASSIVE but I might get one for backpacking.

They didn't have the Case-Mate Naked in stock which is the one I really wanted to check out.

oh, BestBuy's brand (rocket-fish snap on) appeared to be the same size as the BodyGlove Single piece.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] The Jack of Clubs:
http://mobileaccessories.bestbuy.com/nite-ize-leather-cargo-clip-case/4A185A5909.htm

i just bought this and it does NOT fit the infuse. its about half an inch too short. which is a real shame because i like the design, its high quality, has a very soft fabric inside and a nice suede exterior which i love. but because it doesnt fit, some poor bestbuy employee is going to get an ear full. seriously, if it doesnt fit, dont sell it as for that phone.

if anybody does know of another case thats like this one let me know. im struggling to find a nice case. i like ones that dont actually clip on to the phone, and instead i pull it out when needed and enjoy a thin, bare, beautiful device. whats the point in buying a device that looks good, like the infuse and the iphone and many others, if youre going to slap it in some ugly, fat case.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] johnboatcat:
Using casemate pop in gray. Good grip and protection. Still fits in front jeans pocket with no problems.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rsrocket:
Went to bestbuy today looking for a holster for my infuse and just like every other place I have been nothing would fit with my pop case on. Passed the gps section took a look and found a rocketfish RF-GP501 gps case that fit really good has a little play so it would probably fit an even thicker case. To top it off it was 3.99. Also it has a belt loop on back. haven't posted enough to put in link.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] The Jack of Clubs:
i googled that case and it came up with a link to bestbuy. i kinda like the look of that. i was thinking about going in and look at case for cameras and other small devices. good to know i dont have to leave empty handed.

edit: i found this page http://www.bestbuy.com/site/GPS-Accessories/GPS-Cases/abcat0307023.c?id=abcat0307023 and it turns out sizes listed may not be so correct so ima go to the store and try what i can out. i even found two tomtom cases i think are cool looking:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] rsrocket:
I use the rocketfish RF-GP501 for a full day now and with all the moving, contorting and bumping it I do at work it held the phone great. I went to the camera area first and they were all to small. Some of those you linked should work too and at a much better price than "phone cases".
[Samsung Infuse 4G] coopas:
I just got the Ballistic SG case for the Infuse 4G from eBay. It is, in my opinion, a case of much better build quality than the Casemate Pop, and I would trust it much more to a drop.

I'll take pictures of both side by side in a few minutes.

EDIT: Camera battery died - I'll take pics as soon as I can.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] The Jack of Clubs:
i actually went to best buy today and checked out gps cases. it was very loose in that rocketfish case you keep talking about. it was actually very loose in pretty much all the cases. i looked at mobile laptop hard drive cases too, but those where even bigger. i bought a cheap case that mostly fits for now, though im not a fan so ill keep looking.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] zizo79:
Just got this case today and it is awesome especially for the price

My Rocketfish case stopped staying together, started getting really creaky.. Returned it and bought the Case Mate Pop case in grey. Great fit and grip!

Just waiting for a kickstand case now..
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mariusvt:
I've got a casemate barely there, it's perfect for the minimalist. The only reason I got a case was so the phone wasn't sitting directly on the camera lens when on a desk or table. Otherwise I'd be using it naked.

Same here. That and my brother dropped his Focus outside and scuffed the plastic corners up real good.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] brocabortzfield:
I just ordered mine today.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] RockingKK:
I have had both the ballistic sg and hc (just got hc yesterday) I liked feel of and ease of use so to speak of sg but I am hard on phones and work in heavy manufacturing. So far on the hc I am not liking the outer layer (the rubber layer) as it makes it difficult to press the sleep button. It lines up fine for me but the rubber is just level enough to make it difficult to just hit. I guess got used to my otterbox on my iPhone (how I miss that case not phone) all in all I'm content that it protects my phone and still allows me to use it. I'm not much of a looks person so the small book on my hip doesn't bother me. Plus I have to have a holster
[Samsung Infuse 4G] P1 Wookie:
Yeah I loved the OtterBox on my iPhone. I'm gonna hold out for it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] RockingKK:
Prob would hold hold out for it it but prob cost me a phone between now and then. The speaker holes on my otterbox on iPhone were almost completely closed off from from drops and bumps.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] apallohadas:
Well wow. Just put the Ballistic HC case on, and even though the OtterBox was large on the HD2, on the Infuse the Ballistic HC is MASSIVE. It looks pretty good even without the outermost rubber case, but when it's all together I think it could probably take a pretty severe fall.

I have a ZAGG screen protector on underneath all of this, and I think that's interfering with the screen sensitivity. Might remove it to see how that goes.

One complaint, the screen off button is more difficult to press.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] chrisyou:
This^ I was set on leaving the phone naked, but the camera lens is flush with the battery cover. I purchased a barely there case and am very pleased with its appearance and thinness. :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] perennials:
I am trying to decide between the body glove and the pop! case. Has anyone used both and can compare? How does the body glove's texturized body feel and do the comparatively (to the pop!) thinner sides and the gap between the two pieces make it more tenuous to grip? I almost thought it was using car seat upholstery. The body glove also looks thinner and a tighter fit and is more rigid.

I really like the large rubber grips on the sides of the pop!, but the video review of it posted earlier in this thread show the sides to be kind of flexible and I don't like loose fitting cases. Also read a post about bad quality manufacturing? There's also the glossy body which I don't like at all, but I like the two-tone color scheme that the body glove lacks.

I hear some peeps on here have tried both so please comment if you can. Thanks!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Suzook1:
just got the barely there case. Not the most elegant but does the job and keeps the low profile intact
[Samsung Infuse 4G] auswims:
Body glove is good to keep a slim profile and it is the one I use most of the time. I use the pop case if I am doing outdoor activites for the added protection. Both are good cases.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] perennials:
How does the body glove feel like? I can't really tell what it is made out of. Is it soft? Is it hard matte? Rubber? I am also iffy about that big gap between the two pieces. Doesn't look very grippable.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] auswims:
Its a tpu case. The edges are a matte finish. Good grip, easy in and out of the pocket.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] perennials:
TPU? Do you mean the body glove mirage case? There's actually two body glove cases. The mirage case has several colors and is one piece and flexible. Then there's the flex snap-on one that only comes in grey and has two pieces. I was asking about the flex snap-on one.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] cellgeek:
I've used the Body Glove on my Captivate and my Infuse. Good case and doesn't lose its shape over time. Firm feel and okay protection. Keeps the phone from sliding off smooth surfaces. Easy on and off. Only case I use.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] perennials:
Are you talking about the two-piece snap-on one?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] entropism:
I just got a few cases for the new infuse: The person I got it from on here gave me the Body Glove TPU case and a casemate barely there. The exposed edges of the casemate worry me, so I've was using the body glove. I also picked up these:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...74780&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_1988wt_1139

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...478420&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_4396wt_905

And they're EXCELLENT. Quality is on par with the Body Glove, all depends if you like the design or not. The case in the second link is a favorite in the Mytouch 4G section. The first case you can get for $3, I paid more due to it being shipped from the US and getting it around the day my phone came in.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] halo0:
I have both Body Glove cases. The 2 piece snap one has a really interesting textured rubber on it. It is very grippable. The fit of the 2 halves leaves a little to be desired though, it's not perfect. That said, it's my favorite feeling case of the 4 I've tried. I'd be willing to sell it to someone pretty cheap if they want to check it out. PM me.

The 2 cases I used the most are the Body Glove Mirage and the Case Mate Barely There. They are both good but neither is perfect.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] halo0:
I just ordered the second one. My only real gripe with the Body Glove Mirage is that mine had a sharp edge running around the outside at the boundary of where the stripes are. I assume this is from the mold. I was able to reduce the sharpness a bit using an exacto knife and some sand paper, but it is still sometimes slightly uncomfortable on the pinky finger when holding it. Here's hoping the Hong Kong TPU case is better in that regard. :o

Case Mate Tough Case for Samsung Infuse here. I really like it. :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] The Jack of Clubs:
http://amzn.com/B004W1IXGG <- im kinda starting to like the way this case looks. the phone looks easily detachable when i want it by itself, and ive kinda looked into the idea of having a wallet case so i dont have to carry both around. i hate the feel and look of these silicone cases. and i like being able to easily take the phone out of the case and have it by itself, like when im sitting down and playing with the phone and theres really no chance of it getting damaged.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ZzFDKzZ:
I got one of those TPU Soft Plastic Gel Case in black. Most people who see my phone for the first time think the TPU case is part of the phone. Great case.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] perennials:
Thanks for all the suggestions. I ended up just using my phone naked when I got it though. It wasn't as slippery or unwieldy as I had thought. The phone is almost a perfect size for my hand. When I wrap my right hand around the back, the power button is really easy to push with my thumb and feels real secure in one hand when getting it out and unlocking it. I use two hands from here on out so the size doesn't really matter. The screen is actually recessed a slight bit since the chrome edge sticks up slightly, so that's a plus. I can barely feel the phone in my cargo shorts, but the phone is already pushing it so any more width will start to make it hard to walk with.
