I have one of these cases. It looks lovely but doesn't hold the phone as well as I'd like. It's also very, very chunky - far bigger than I wanted. I retired it after just a day of use and went for a Zenus instead.

Hi,

Looking forward to buying a Samsung Galaxy S and now I'm wondering what kind of cover would be good for the phone.


Did some searching and found few covers from Amazon.co.uk:

SAMSUNG I9000 GALAXY S PREMIUM SOFT POCKET CASE POUCH: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo
SAMSUNG I9000 GALAXY S BLACK LEATHER POCKET POUCH COVER: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo


Have you used one of those covers? If so, what's your opinion about it?


Found also a Google Nexus One neoprene pouch:

Anyone here who has access to both phones and could test if Galaxy S fits into that N1 neoprene pouch?

Thanks for the replys :)

after using the zenus silicone case for a while, i didn't like the slippery feel of it, and missed the thick soft, fleshy feeling clear silicone case i'd had on the MT3G I'd had earlier

found this one, and for $2.69 SHIPPED from hong kong, i figured i'd take a chance, $2.69 is not a lot to lose

surprisingly, it's the same quality as the MT3G one i had, and it was here 6 days after paying for it, shipped from hong kong to east coast of USA

Guys,
Just released from Piel Frama ~ a load of customized cases for our Galaxy S.

Okay, they are not cheap but:-
a) They are very customized. In fact one particular case has over 80 yes Eighty customized colour settings.
b) Can be made with a Snap or Magnetic closure.
c) Probably the finest made cases for any phone.

I've had Piel Frama many times and each has not only protected the phone better but with style too.

Have a peek here for a complete list.

I've tried a few different cases to protect my Galaxy S. Including the case-mate 'barely there' and a few others. In the end I've gone for the case-mate 'tough case'. It feels really study - and has a harder outer shell (which has a textured finish so it's easy to grip), and a separate rubber inner linning - both of which together makes it very resistant to knocks (I actually dropped mine on the pavement and the phone seems fine). It does add a bit to the size. But given how thin the Galaxy S is to start with, I find this a good size:

(oh and the rubber inner layer also covers the voulme and power buttons- making it more water resistant- handy at this time of year!)
