whats a good case that keeps out dust and dirt

I got a nexus s and I got a tpu amezer case and is pretty good but my only
Complain is that a lot of dirt and dust be getting stuck in between the cracks
Of the front screen so I was just wondering if there's a case out there with a tighter grip around
The screen........

I do think the MOMAX case is a great case for NS. But it's a must for having some dust problems no matter what case you are gonna use.

The s-shape case from amazon or ebay is definitely the best for dust and everything else

Not really. I've used that case and dust will get stuck around the screen and somehow it'll get inside. This is from my experience though.
The ringke case keeps dust out pretty well. None around the screen. Does a better job than the previous cases I've had. Although if you stretch it a lot it'll loose its tightness.

Been using the Ringke case and have not seen any dust or lint being attached onto the case.
I've previously used the Case-Mate Pop case. No dust or lint on there either.
Ringke: Low-Profile case. Want a better grip but don't want it too bulky? This ones yours.
Case-Mate Pop: Worried about dropping the phone and want the ultimate protection? This ones yours.

I'm really considering getting the Ringke case is it worth it

Yeah it's a good case. Very low profile, doesn't really add much bulk. Better grip, there are numerous reviews out there including YouTube videos that would help you make the decision.
Only thing I had with the case is aligning the case with the phone. When I first put it on, I saw the cut outs were like kind of off. But when I saw the videos, you had to realign it. Other than that it seems pretty good.

An alternative to the Rearth Rinke case would be the SGP Ultra Silke case, which is almost the same but with a little different design, and comes with the claimed-to-be one of the "best" static screen protector out there (Steinheil Ultra Crystal Clear)

look for the trident cases its around 35$ but well worth the money, right now im using the seidio active case and its awesome with the exoskeleton frame

Don't know about the Trident, but I found that dust got into the sides of the Seidio Active X case. The rubber on it is pretty stretchy/flimsy even though it is held on by the exoskeleton.

I bought the seidio and it attracts dust like a magnet,its ridiculous

[Q] Cant choose between two cases!!

So just got the nexus s 4g, wanna get a really really slim minimalist case almost a bumper type case, so I narrowed between two choices the Nexus S Ringke Case or the Incipio feather Ultralight Hard Shell Case. And i ddint seem to find any other good alternatives between those, any suggestions? I posted the link to both below.

Incipio Feather is less bulky and more slim than any silicon/TPU cases.

If your picky and takes care of your phone go with the feather by incipio. Tpu case if your more caresless and drops phones constantly

a review on the incipio site said the case needed to be trimmed to fit the 4g? I am also trying to decide on the incipio because its made for the nexus s and the NS4g is a bit thicker.

Incipio fits well on my NS4G, and since every case isn't exactly the same u might have to trim only little bit on top of power button cut out, more like scraping off some plastic, sharp knife will help. I strongly recommend that case, I love it.

ditto. my wife and i both have incipio feather case, i'm a phone in the pocket guy so need something light and thin that doesnt add bulk. only thing i wish it it covered top and bottom better, but no biggie. and my power button works fine, the cutout is not centered to it, i thought about trimming the top of the cutout like 1mm MAYBE, but not necessary. great case for the $, check deals on amazon.

i would go for the rearth ringke. Nice case and good deal on the bundle (w/2 audio plugs and screen protectors, even if they are a little small).

Man, im way to hard on my phones to use a sleek case. i tape two 4" pieces of foam top either side of mine

At that price it is hard to believe it is real leather, but it says it is leather and seems like leather to me and I refuse to cut it just to see. It has a clip that will fit a wide belt and also has 2 loops that you can slide your belt through for more security. Also it fits the Note 2 with either the RND TPU Protective Case or the elago G6 Slim Fit Case on the phone.

I wish I could see a video or maybe some screen shots with how much wiggle room there is with a case on inside the holster.

Whatever you do stay away from any cases with magnetic clips or a magnetic anything on the case. I got one with a magnet kickstand and it screwed up alot with the spen and screen. It interferes With the magnetic fields that the phone needs to operate properly. I wasted like forty bucks on that case. Straight to the garbage.
You'd be surprised how many cases employ a Magnat somewhere. You arroyos think the manufacturer s would know about the whole magnet plus electronics thing never works out well. Dummies

There is not really any wiggle room from end to end as the edges of the phone in the tpu case touch the ends of the case but it is not really tight and the lid of the case opens enough to get an easy grip on the phone for removal. The phone in the case is 153 x 83 x 11mm. So if you measure your Note 2 in your case and it is the about same size or maybe 2mm larger then you'll know it will fit.

Hope you like it as much as I do.

looking for a slim case with kickstand.

hey there guys I'm looking for a case for my samsung Verizon Galaxy Note 2. looking for one that fits the stock battery as well as one that fits the extended battery.trying to find with a kickstand is proving difficult.I don't want a folio or one that closes like a book I want that had the screen open all the time. also need it to be able to go in and out of my pocket easy without catching, smooth if you will but still has some grip. a tall order I know I've looked quite a bit any help is much appreciated.

The seidio surface looks like the thinnest case with a kickstand but I'm just judging by looking online.
You could look into the flygrip too. I have it and it's actually a lot thinner then I thought it would be. I love it, it makes one handed operation so much easier and it doubles as a kickstand you can use in portrait or landscape. Plus you can attach it to any case.

So far this is the thinnest case I've seen with a kick stand. A member posted this case on "Post a picture of your case along with your Note 2" thread. He said that he bought it from China. I've been looking for this case online but can't seem to find it anywhere.

that looks pretty good I'll go check into that one thanks

+1 for the Seidio surface case. Good protection, hardly adds any bulk at all, and it does have a kickstand. I usually use the active cases on my phones, but the note 2 being as big as it is, I didn't want to add that much bulk. So far very happy with the surface case. (And I've dropped it a few times, holds up very well.)

Another vote for the surface. I love the look and feel of mine. The only thing to note is that it may push up your screen protector if you have one. I had to trim mine with an exacto knife before I applied it once the surface was on. Now I'm looking at the vitreo as a new surface protector as that'll fit with the surface as is.

I ordered this case. Will let you know how it is.

I am using this case now. It is good, but too slippery and the kickstand is wearing quickly (starting to fall out of the case occasionally). But not too bulky, and decent protection..

I have that exact case too. After a while the kickstand did start to fall out of the case but i found out it was because the tiny (and I mean tiny) bump that they consider a latch had broken off. So I just dabbed a little super glue and it fits just fine.
It does get a little slippery at times, but I like that the kickstand is pretty sturdy on portrait mode. You don't often see a kickstand that is sturdy and doesn't topple the phone when you press on it.

I do not believe slim and kick stand goes hand in hand but again some cases are close to being called slim for sure

Agreed. Before getting the ZL battery, I tried a couple of kickstand cases and the thinner cases have thin kickstands.

I purchased the Seidio case with the kickstand. I've used their cases for quite some time simply because they have such a low profile and it's easy to remove the battery. My wife has the Otterbox on her Note II, but only because she doesn't know how to hold on to her device and has already shattered one Note II. The protection you get from the Otterbox is nice, but I really prefer the smaller footprint of the Seidio. Also, the kickstand works terrific.

I have the Sedio Surface case and I liked the kickstand on that a lot, but I did have one gripe. After having to take out my battery a few times I noticed the case didn't stay together very well. Sometimes the case would actually come apart in my pocket when I went to grab it from my pocket. I did find sticking some thin paper between the case and the phone helped with it coming apart often though. If you don't find yourself taking off your case a lot it might be a good case.

A couple of Horizontal holster case that fits G2+ slim case

The search function doesn't seem to be working right now.
Anyone know of a good horizontal holster case that will also fit a g2 + one of those slim cases like the Insidio feather cases?

I nee to know this too!

so far I found this pricey leather case that fits an S4 with a hard cover. Would probably fit the G2 with a hard case but it's very pricey.

Check out my post. There is a link to eBay. If you look at the pouches he offers. Just about any thing that fits a note 2/3 without a case will fit the G2 with a case I ordered 3 of them. All different. But they work with a ballistic gel case. Which is quite thick. Good luck.

So far the poetic slim hard case is great. Nice feel. Someone thought the case was part of the phone because it was slim and look natural. The case + g2 fit perfectly inside the reiko case. It's not snug and has room to breath and so makes it easy to remove the phone with the case. You could prob add a gel protector and it still fits in the case. Case was made for s3/s4. Best part of the case: the lid magnet is strong enough that the phone will not just fall out if it falls. Love the strong closure. Still waiting on the next "easy to remove" case to arrive.

So I got the second case and I love it better than the first. When I first saw it, I thought it was a weird design to have a middle just missing from the case. But when I got the case I thought it was the perfect design. No more having to push my phone up from the bottom and grabbing a piece of it to pull it out (with the idea that I might drop it one day). With this case, I just get a good grip on the phone and just pull the phone right out. Look at the third picture and you'll see what I mean. The case is built very well and rigid. I have the Poetic Palette slim case that points outwards so my phone is protected on the small piece that is exposed. The magnetic lid is strong enough that a good shake doesn't make the phone fall out. The g2 + slim case fit perfectly in this case. The amount of space available is just right to the point that the phone can freely come out the case when you pull up; now snugness, just the right amount of space. I don't know if a gel tpu case would fit with this case if used with the g2.
This horizontal pouch is my #1 for this phone; the other pouch is a back-up now. Maybe I'll get a gel tpu case to complement the 2nd case and use it when I need extra protection like when hiking or something.
Just my observation, I think any case that fits the Note 2/3 would be a just a little big for this phone. I think cases that fit the S4 would work with this phone.
