****The Official Samsung Galaxy S II ACCESSORIES Thread***

I've been using the genuine Samsung Galaxy SII flip case now for a couple of weeks and while it does it job, the flap is starting to annoy me so I am on the hunt for a new case.

This time I am after one of them ones which protects just the outer case, but I am totally not sure which one to go for! Obviously it has to be touch and do the job, and I don't want one of those rubber ones!

Could somebody recommend me one? I've read up on those Genuine samsung mesh ones but after reading various reviews I am not that keen on it.

Thanks all - Liam

I have had 3.

The cheap rubbery S-Line one you see on the bay. Protects the phone, but is bulky, heavy, makes side buttons awkward to push and overall looks cheap.

The slim fitting Nilkin (similar to the Nearly There I believe), which I really liked. Looked nice, felt nice, did an ok job protecting, but in doing it's job when I dropped it, part of it snapped, so it's a bit fragile.

I am now using a Walnutt bumper, and I love it. Plenty of protection with limited impact on the form of the handset, plus it isn't as slippery with it on.
 
anyone know if there is a charger/dock avliable for this phone that plugs into the wall then the phone slides into, so there is no cables or anything?
 
Does anyone have any experience with this type of thing? Im getting an S2 tomorrow and just want something nice and simple to offer some sort of protection.

Thanks

I have the Samsung leather pouch, works great. A word of warning though, it does not work very well if you use a case on the phone, it makes it a very tight fit.

kinda standard price nowadays - I bagged the same one for £18 in the sales.

ok thanks, going to wait for a better price anyway.
 
I've had a protector and case on mine since release. The odd thing is that the plastic casing at the back of the phone behind my case gets dusty even though it's covered! So annoying :p

Everything else is super new.
 
Anyone know what the deal is here? When you go to the product page the Case Mate Tough Case it says a newer version is available (here). They look identical but have different manufacturer codes. Just seems odd they'd be selling an old version.

They also seem suspiciously cheap compared to MobileFun and everywhere else.
 
I ordered one of these 0.3mm "thin" cases the other day and it arrived today. Initially it feels quite weird and paper like out of the packing but once on the phone it feels pretty good. It has about the same protection as the official mesh case and there is a small lip above the screen bezel that it wraps around so isn't going to pop off if dropped like the official case does.

It is matte textured so won't get finger marks or grease marks and also the bump in the speaker area is less pronounced than other cases so feels sleeker in the hand. It works perfect with the extended battery!

Yes it's very thin and I don't know how much it will protect against heavy impacts like the Walnutt bumper case (in the pictures) but the phone keeps its thinness with this and to the untrained eye it doesn't look like the phone is in a case at all. It is semi translucent so the Samsung logo from the battery cover shows through as well whch sort of adds some authenticity.
