[Galaxy S II Accessories] Ploone:
Hi guys,

Haven't posted a video in about 5 days now so I thought you all deserved this little write up :) Got the review of the SGP Argos coming soon, hopefully this helps anyone out - feel free to ask questions below and i'll help you out !

Hard Shell Cases

SGP Ultra Thin Air– $24.99 – Thinnest snap on the back case on the market, adds virtually no bulk to the device. Unfortunately not as tight a fit as I would like, will offer no drop protection and the glossy backing gets smudged up very quickly. Do not recommend as the Case-Mate Barely There is a better option.

SGP Linear Pure Series - $24.99 – Hard plastic case comprised of a 3 piece split design. Great idea in paper but not well executed. The bumper pieces fit tightly but the back plate is loose. Will provide a moderate level of protection and style but cannot get past the loose backplate. Not recommended for this reason.

Mugen Power 3200 mah Extended Battery- $100- 3200 mah extended battery with replacement back cover. Battery runs like a champ, nearly doubling the performance of the stock battery. Back cover is textured so provides great grip and is comfortable to hold. Back cover does add considerable thickness and bulk and phone looks weird.

SGP Argos Leather - $39.99- Real leather case featuring a front flap protector for the screen. Materials feel awesome, premium quality. Offers great protection and style. Front flap can be bothersome and annoying for some. Adds some bulk to the phone. Overall, good option for those that like the style, very classy and high quality but not all will like the style.

SGP Neo Hybrid EX- $26.99- Bumper style case - two pieces that wrap around the phone's sides. Great design and look, very well built. Protection wise, you won't get much - should be used by people who don't drop their phones often, very minimalistic. A little expensive for what you get, but a good case nonetheless.

Silicone, TPU and Rubber Cases

Rearth Ringke - $16.99 – A silicone case coated in a high quality polymer which repels dust and lint as well as providing a smooth finish. Thin and flexible, could be a little tighter fitting onto the device. Cutouts and ports are great. Won’t offer much drop protection but does offer good scratch protection – a decent choice for average users.

SGP Ultra Capsule - $21.99 – Features a form factor similar to the Incipio NGP, although it is slightly thinner and more flexible. Buttons are much easier to press on this case – glossy/sparkly back looks good but can pick up fingerprints easily. Overall it is a decent choice, most should be pleased with it. Includes a Steinheil screen shield for screen protection.

Incipio NGP- $19.99– TPU case with a soft touch finish on the back, comfortable to hold and grippy, offers a medium level of protection and cutouts are great. The major issue relates to the buttons being stiff and hard to press since they are full TPU and have not been cutout on the inside. Still a good choice for the average user, price point is good.

Hybrid Cases

Case-Mate Pop - $34.99 – Comprised of a hard, glossy plastic wrapped around silicone rubber, the Pop is a popular but pricey case. Looks fantastic until the plastic begins to scratch up and the silicone tends to wear off, these however are only visual issues. If you don’t mind the visual effects, the case offers great protection and is a good option. Built-in kickstand is good as well.

Otterbox Commuter Series- $34.99 – A two piece case made up of a soft inner silicone layer encased by a hard plastic spine. Spine has areas that are matte and others that are glossy, wish they’d all be matte. Glossy areas can be slippery and silicone attracts dust. Case is bulky but offers fantastic protection, can be pricey but highly recommended to those that need the protection.

Skins/Screen Shields

BodyGuardz Armor Carbon Fiber - $19.99 – Thin carbon fiber-like skin that is easy to apply and remove from your device. Won’t add much drop protection but do provide scratch protection to your device. Not meant for users who need protection, but rather those who want a stylish and unique alternative to cases. Included screen shield is a plus.

SGP GLAS- $31.99 – Real Glass screen protector, offers touch and feel almost exact to that of the naked screen on the Galaxy S2. Will provide good protection as well, extremely easy to install since it is thick, includes home button protectors. Unfortunately, can reduce sensitivity on touchscreen while charging and is quite expensive for a screen shield. Cannot be reused.

SGP Ultra Optics - $15.99 – High quality screen shield offering an anti-fingerprint coating while barely affecting screen quality. Extremely easy to apply onto device (plus you get 2 in a pack!) – has a slightly squeak sound due to coating, it can be annoying to clean off built up dirt over time. Most will be pleased with this shield.
