You have to be very quick if any you guys want one of these as they only have 2 left at this price

Tempting

StonedPenguin · 22 Jul 2012 at 17:38

£200!?

chaparral · 22 Jul 2012 at 17:51

Am thinking about getting one these docks that can also charge a spare battery

DanH84 · 22 Jul 2012 at 23:44

Hey guys, sorry to be lazy and not read the thread but my net connection has gone to **** so need to be quick and then check back tomorrow. Just got one an s3 and now I'm after a case. Was looking at a £20-£25 price range and I think I'd probably rather leave it on permanently than take the phone out of the case whenever I wanted to use it.

Could someone recommend a couple of decent ones for me to look at?

Due one of these soon as stock arrives:

Figure I can test it out as a leave in the car glovebox instant power pack. I notice it adds quite a bit of thickness though but should provide ample power in those situations where you need some juice but don't want to open the back cover up and swap a battery etc.

No I'll keep it top secret!

Such a bargain. Have you ordered? :p

This case looks interesting for all round protection fans but not wanting an overly badly styled case:

Looks ugly to me!

Also looks like it adds a fair bit of bulk.

I don't think you can beat the diztronic matte TPU case for all round protection and minimal bulk whilst also looking good and feeling nice.

roboffer · 23 Jul 2012 at 17:16

Looks nice-ish, don't see the need for the backplate and is that a credit card holder? Why oh why? Lose your phone AND your credit card in one easy step.

I saw those, there's a youtube video where it looks pretty terrible though. The bumper surround disconnects at the red bit to fit the phone in and it doesn't look study, only very plastic.

I',m expecting my Walnutt bumper soon - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-dDBU-xGvk .

Robbo · 23 Jul 2012 at 18:40

I didn't know Walnutt were making cases for the S3 yet. I quite like the look and design of that (but perhaps not in blue

).

mrk · 23 Jul 2012 at 18:42

The Walnutt does look good and will no doubt be good since I had one on my S2. Just need a colour variant that suits the PB instead of the bright ones on offer right now...

Still, while it will protect more than the ROCK case, no case feels as good or looks as slick as one

Cosimo · 23 Jul 2012 at 18:46

These frame "cases" do nothing for me. I prefer to feel the actual phone and let it live in a pouch.

mrk · 23 Jul 2012 at 18:47

Put phone in pouch, put pouch in pocket, repeat for answering a call or using the phone.

It's extra faff and many people don't like faff nor potentially damaging the phone casing.

My phone stays in the pouch when I'm travelling and I don't like faff around a phone which it is. Not managed to damage one in all my years of use. Anyway it's all very subjective.

Robbo · 23 Jul 2012 at 19:03

I'm generally not a fan of those sorts of cases, however, that one interests me because Walnutt stuff is usually well made and, it:

Covers the small gaps around the edge of the screen
Looks fairly nice, with the right colour
Provides rear and front protection, due to being raised slightly
Would protect the phone fairly well in the event of a drop
Probably adds some grip
Doesn't detract from the design (much)

I'll probably still settle on a pouch though!
