Recommend me a case for i9023

Hi,
I'm looking a case for i9023. I have seen around and still get confused about the thickness of some models being different. So if someone could direct me to the proper cases that would fit perfectly on my phone that would be great.
Things i would like are: Not too big and bulky, I'd like white thin and good looking cases though black will do. Thats about it.
Thanks for your time and your help!

Nillkin white case should do what you're asking for!

nilkin case is the best case out there for i9023. I ordered from obostore u can google it easily. Fyi it took 2weeks for me.

How much protection does this actually have? I can't justify replacing my TPU case which is made for the AMOLED version, but barely fits my SLCD. I want to get it because it looks amazing, but if it can't protect from medium drops there is no point in me getting it.

Guys, thanks for the replies. I ended up looking around and finally decided to get 2 mesh cases fromebay. Igot a black one to fit in with miui's colour scheme and a blue one to fit with ics colour scheme. Thanks for the replies!

There are two types of nillkin cases available. Have a look at obostore

Did you take a look at the Seidio case I love mine with the holster ( belt clip) it's very robust

I use a "CLEAR Soft Flexi Hard Case Samsung Google Nexus S I9023". It fits well, and the quality is acceptable.

Guys, I just bought the nilkin hard case white. Now I just gotta play the waiting game
I didn't get the soft white one that one of you suggested because I wanted a hard plastic one..
But keep the suggestions coming! So that people with i9023 can come here to see different cases available

My silicone case fits my Nexus S just right ;-)

Guys I'm gonna do a review on the nilkin case when it arrives. Can't wait!!

Hi
Someone know if the Ballistic case can fit i9023 model? Someone in this forum seem was able to use it with this model but looking around I found some negative comments about it. The ballisticc manufactor after interpelled can not confirm the compatibility.
Thank you

Here you are. The photos are not mine but I have tried it and I don't really like it.

Thanks for that, I'm undecided tbh. Not sure I like the look of the black one.

I had the same hesitation but after trying the black I can tell you that it is just great. There is a commuter thread where I have posted some photos.

Thanks for that, I found your photos and the one of the phone on the case next to the box looks really nice. I thought the white one would provide a nice contrast but really not sure now.
What's grip like on the back?

It is slippery but this is a great case. For my taste it is thin enough amd really sturdy. Highly recommended.

I've currently got the Samsung hard cover and I like it other than the glossy back panel, I had the glacier commuter on my white s3 and I really liked it.
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

same with me as well. I have the samsung cover and kind of want the commuter but I am worry about the thickness and bulkines it adds to the note.

I have a Speck , Samsung protective cover and the Otterbox commuter. I prefer the Commuter overall. I have the White N2 with black Commuter and like the look. Btw I had a Defender and hated it. Way too much bulk for me.

I used to use the original Samsung protective cover, but a month ago I dropped my phone in the bathroom and cracked my screen. have to replace them for 120$. now I'm using Otterbox defender and it protects my phone from a few big drops, but the included screen protector is really bad. anyway if I have to purchase a case again, an Otterbox commuter would be really good in protecting your precious phone. it adds some bulk, but it feels really comfortable in the hand, and you don't have to feel worried about your phone anymore.

I have this case but I don't like the color that much

I have the Commuter, the grip is very slippery so I just use the Aegis instead

Ibwould love to have the light gray rubber part with the black back. Think yhat woukd look great on thr titanium note 2

Would ypu be willing to trade rubber covers then? I also would like to have the black with white hard cover

I recommend this case great and adds no bulk to note 2 i give it a 10 out of 10

I purchased this case on ebay great price free shipping phone looks good protects note 2 just fine it doesnt make bulky heres link to purchase and pics http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=281028003729

This case is only good for protection from scratches. While using this case I dropped my Note 2 from 2 feet onto pavement and the screen cracked. The case is great if you want something very slim but I wouldn't trust it for drop protection. The casemate tough case is also very slim but provides 10 times more protection.

I only use this case for after work during work i use a otterbox commuter
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app

Yep, read another post with someone dropping their phone using this case and it shattered the screen. It's slim and protects from scratches, but next to nothing drop protection.
+1 for Case-Mate Tough as one of the slimmest cases with a drop protection on par with other cases twice of it's thickness.

awesome!

I just like this case cause phone still looks sexy with it and im pretty carefull with my phones but i do construction work so otterbox comnuter goes on at work

Lol but everytime i see Verizon customers with note 2 it makes me giggle, cuz of that home button advertisement.

I have the aluminum button from spigen over the home button for that very reason.
Back to this case to be honest I didn't even think it looked all that great. The back is an absolute grease and finger print magnet.
After getting my phone replaced I tried out the seidio surface case (which I liked, good kickstand) before finally settling on the casemate tough case. It seems to be the perfect marriage of slimness and protection. Although I'm probably going to order the seidio convert case add on for the surface case I already own for those trips where I might want additional protection.

It comes in 3 colors for 10 bucks. Actually the black and silver look very nice, much better than stock and I actually prefer the tactile feel. It has a very nice metallic spiral design. I was concerned about the button moving around but after 3 weeks so far the adhesive is very good. I'd recommend it especially if you have a Verizon note 2.

looks good

I had a slim case on my N2 once, a Nilkin one but pretty much the same design as this one.
Then I dropped my phone whilst getting out the car, and now I have a dirty great big crack across the bottom of my screen. No insurance...
Now I have my phone in an Otterbox, with a film screen protector to hopefully stop the crack getting worse. I has a very big sad.
Do yourself a favour, avoid slim cases as they're worse than useless. They give a false sense of security that WILL be shattered, along with your screen, when you drop it. If you're going for a case, get something that PROTECTS!

That's exactly what I just wrote in another thread for Case-Mate Tough. If you want a super slim case, great grip, and durable corner protection to give you a piece of mind - there is no better choice but Tough case.

Got Bored from the Slippy Grip_Note2_N7100

Hi everybody,
Here you can post your experience about the slippy grip of your mobile (especially N7100), and how you've got rid of it; either with using special casing or without using any casing.
Thanks for your participation.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

I didn't. The Note 2 needs to be slippery for me so it can slip into my pocket.

I tried to use casing, but itmakes mobile looks bigger, also I removed the chrome from the bezel thinking it will help, although it looks more fun to me but still very slippery. I'm searching here and there, the only reasonable solution is to replace the battery cover with one like Note3 battery cover, but it's not available in markets in my country, I have to go through ebay or amazon

If you're willing to try; you could spray it with Plasti-Dip http://www.plastidip.com/
It will give your phone a rubbery/grippy feel, but is easily removed if needed.
You could either spray the battery cover with it, or also spray the bezel as well for ultimate grip.

I use an Imak Cowboy shell case; it has a really nice/grippy texture and adds very little bulk to the phone. You can pick them up for $10 on eBay.

I find the Ringke Slim case adds a nice level of grip, or rather adds a non slippery surface that's grippy enough. It still slips effortlessly in and out of my pocket. Also it really doesn't add any bulk at all. Try a search and I'm sure you'll see some photos.

Sure. I'm loving this case: it's nice and grippy, fits snug, and looks pretty good. Not bad for $10 shipped.

took your advice. put plasti-dip on the back cover and its freaking amazing. no more slippery note 2.
i had ordered the 'leather' back cover but that didn't provide any grip. plasti dip is amazing.
thanks

Scotch Brite scouring pad might do it.
I recall people using that method to give a 'matte' appearance to the GS2 plastic bezel.

A great slim case

Nillikin make very slim cases. Have used on a number of devices. Got mine today for the g2. Gives it some grip without adding bulk.

It doesn't look like it protects the top or the bottom of the phone at all.

Well that color certainly stand out lol.

It doesn't cover top and bottom which I find more comfortable.
I got the white one for a white device.
