Generic TPU case w side grips (PICS)

Picked this up online at HandheldItems for $6 (after using coupon code: galaxytab20 for 20% off). It fits the Tab very snugly, has all the ports/controls exposed & has a sorta smooth matte finish instead of a glossy/rubbery finish like other TPU cases.
It's good quality for generic & you can't beat the price for what you get. Much better option IMO than blowing $40 on the Belkin Grip Vue that Best Buy is selling (which covers up the SD & SIM slots!).

The cheap silicon skin I bought for my Tab is on all the time.
Great essential protection against scratches and knocks, good grip, minimum footprint.

Where did you get it from?and how much it cost?

Got it here for around $6 after applying the 20% off coupon code I mentioned in the original post: http://www.handhelditems.com/samsung-galaxy-frosted-skin-with-side-grip-solid-black-p-152335.html

Thanks alot sorry for the inconvinient

To OP...thanks for the link, am thinking of ordering one...for back protection I already ordered a Skinit skin...not sure if it will cover the sides, if not will order one of these...
Would have preferred an Otterbox but they don't have a case for the Tab yet...:-(

Verizon has the defender posted on their site. Not on Otterbox site though.

we have the same case, but mine is transparent, got it for Philippine Peso 400 ($9). As for the sleeve, it was just given by a friend who just came back from Singapore.

Cool. yeah, they had that one too but I was afraid that since I had the all black Tab that the clear TPU case would be more like "frosted" & make the black back look all faded & kinda off color.
Is the clear one really clear, or is it frosted a bit??

It's frosted, if you want clear you might want to consider brando clear hard shell

Wanted to order but changed my mind...shipping cost for an US$8 case is US$25!!! That made me think twice...will see if I can pick up something cheaper locally...:-(

Keep in mind its generic so you can pick it up on eBay too for probably free shipping. It'll most likely ship from somewhere in Asia though & take longer.

Broke down and picked nexus 4 at Tmobile...

I still have about 5 weeks before my google order comes in and broke down and picked up a Nexus 4 from local store under contract. Their monthly rates are ok but having to pay additionally monthly for full price on phone is not worth it. Will test their network for 10 days and may take it back. Did not port my phone number to them yet. I still have an old flip phone w Straight Talk SIM card. Love the feel and buttery smooth of the phone. Went right afterwards everywhere to get a case but no luck. Scare to take the phone out of the house till i get a case. I never put the phone in pockets, always have in death grip on my hand. Please let me know if anyone in Austin/Cedar Park, Texas area has seen any out there or might sell me one. In the meantime. Ordered a tpu case from Amazon.

Order a Rearth Slim case, they ship their cases from Texas. A cheap TPU from Amazon won't protect your phone.
Dallas, TX 75238 is exactly where they ship out. USPS First Class Mail, $9.99 + no sales tax + free shipping.
Very good case that you can find a lot of reviews on the forum about it. I'd cancel that TPU asap, waste of money to be honest.

4 colors to choose from: black, grey, blue, white.

I strongly disagree. The cheap TPU ebay cases are great and will likely protect your phone more than the Rearth case which doesn't adequately cover the top or bottom of the phone.

2 cases for less than 15

Wanted to get a thin case so I decided to order two from Amazon. One from China the other from California. This S-line case is similar to the J-kase without all the branding. Cost less than 2.50 shipped. It took about 2-3 weeks to get to me. (east coast). It covers the phone entirely with a nice lip over the screen. Very thin and tight to the phone. Seems it could give a little bit of protection from small drops. The one from Cali is called Megix. It cost 9.99 shipped and looks similar to the Rock case. Has a sand paper type feel, not as gritty though. Very nice grip. Doesn't cover the whole phone, more of a stylish, backplate scratch protector type case. Does have a small lip to keep the screen off a flat surface, which is nice. Here are some pictures...

Wow, those 2 is exactly what I just ordered, I suppose to get the exact same slim grey case today from the tracking.
The s line tpu I ordered the black color instead of clear, for only $1.93 shipped, should get it in couple weeks.
Sometimes makes me wonder, less than 2 bucks for a decent case, minus ebay fee and postal, paypal fee, how the heck they make profit selling these?

That case looks better then the one I got from Amazon. Nice

Yeah it boggles my mind how they can sell a case for 2 cents and ship for less that 2.50 and make a profit. Definitely work the price for the two of them though....Yeah the gray rock look a like case has a good appeal to it. A dark gray the blends well with the phone.

Nice covers. I 'll order one too as the one i have has started to loosen. :/

I use the s line case. Really inexpensive and works great. No point in spending $20 on similar cases from a retail store.

More importantly is why we put up with places like best buy selling the same products for $20 or 30. Cables, screen protectors, chargers, cases, there's no reason why these stores markup these items so much.
I've likely saved hundreds by purchasing through eBay.

Why is the uag case so good

Just curious why everyone is raving about the upcoming uag cases for the note 2
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

I was excited about the case.. My coworker had one on her s3. I really liked it.. And was protected nice.. Not excited now with the design they went with.. Holding out now for the itskins full body carbon case
-TeaM VeNuM Like A Boss
-Galaxy Note II Edition

I got my friend to buy a UAG S3 case, over quality and build is nice. I actually like the new design better, sets it apart a bit, plus 10 bucks off with the promo code why not. I went through like 5 cases this one should be a keeper.

I ordered mine because I didn't like the otterbox commuter. This case looks good and seems rugged enough for my needs. That $10 off code seal the deal for me. I hope this one is a keeper.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2

For me its the feel and quality of the case. I don't like trendy hip cases. The design is what it is and I still bough the case because I have previously used a case from UAG. I would get an iPhone if I wanted cool design cases.

I ordered mine because I saw a lot of very positive reviews about their design and build quality. Not to mention the design looks very modern. There are only so many TPU cases you can own before they go stale. haha. I really wanted a Speck Pixel HD case, but it's been a while and hundreds of votes later they didn't really care. So I moved on. UAG case looks fresh, while the Case-Mate Tough case looks a little boring. One thing i loved about their tough case was all their silicone colors! I used to have it for my 9700 way back in the day and it was awesome to have so many colors but now they make a few and that's it. So... Pay 47 dollars (with european shipping) for a black on black case that's a little dated, or pay 30 dollars (with free shipping, so 23 euros that was taken from my bank account this morning) for a new design. hehe. I hope this is the case for me!

Well, at least they ship to the Netherlands for free.
Just ordered a black one.
Now I have to search for a way to put a metal plate inside to use it in the car (magnetized car holder)
Currently I am using the Tetrax car holder, but that means a (small) metal knob on the back. This way the phone cannot lay flat on the table. So, I am searching for a car holder which can hold the phone with that metal plate inside. (I once saw something like that, bu can't find it anymore)

I don't know what carrier they use to ship to Europe. I'm in Spain and hot free shipping, even without the discount code. I'll be more than happy to post the info when they finally ship my order. Hehe. I can't wait. ^_^

What is the best Case and Tempered glass available for Oneplus 3 in India?

I have searched a lot on Amazon India and have found some decent cases by foso but I haven't found any tempered glass which covers whole led display at least. Every glass I have seen has only 1-2 stars. If anyone can suggest a decent glass and also a case they liked it would be very helpful .
PS: The item should be available on Indian retail site. Please don't suggest products which need to be imported.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/accessories/oneplus-3-nillkin-black-frosted-case-t3412565

Tudia cases are available at a decent price now. They were around 2k a piece a week back.
You can also get Pleson TGSP from amazon.in but they're being imported against order and costs a pretty penny (1.6k each)
ps: You don't have to worry about import customs as they're being imported to the seller 1st and then shipped to you. Does take a while though.

Try FOSO transparent one on amazon.in for 300 or Tarkan Armored one for 329 rupees...!
I own the FOSO and have ordered the tarkan one.
For tempered glass A company called Chevron made cheap not fully fitting ones for OP3.
Full ones are found from SNOOG which takes around 3 weeks to deliver at 225 rupees each.
All on amazon.in.

Just got my Orzly tempered. It fits perfectly and is quite a good deal. I found it cheaper on Ebay from a guy named flex something. I would say it's worth a shot as the screen protector fits the the whole screen.
Ps. There is also a other thread where they have posted links to various screen protectors and cases.
For cases, Orzly also made a case there looks a bit like otterbox if you like dual protection cases. It's name is orzly grip pro.
Hope it can be used ^~^

As they're a online shop they should accept debit card. I honestly am not sure as I didn't buy from their official site, though I can see they're sending worldwide. Honestly. I can't answer it really, but you could always try contact them.

That will come around ₹1400 after shipping, I guess..
Can anyone say which is the cheapest tempered glass available in India at present, thats fully covering and perfect fitting... I'm also confused which one to buy. Fully covering ones are limited and those available in India are either too costly at present, or not fitting well...
