Bumper case for galaxy s ii

xavierpunkreno · Nov 11, 2011

Now I know the purpose of the bumper for the iphone was to prevent antennagate, but I need some sort of case that will protect my s2 when I have an extended battery in. Any suggestions?

I know Siedo is working on an extended battery, and will be producing cases to accomodate it when it comes out... supposedly by end of year.

I have liked my SGP Neo Hybrid EX case (open in the back so the battery can come out with the case on). I bought the Euro version and made a hole for the top microphone, but it looks like the ATT version is available now (or at least listed on their website).

This case looks nice. How much does it cover the volume and unlock buttons? One thing I really like about this phone compared to my last is that the volume rocker and power/lock buttons are "clicky" (for lack of a better term) and thus feel very good when I use them.

Also, how does the screen protector look? Does it distort the picture? On my last phone I used a screen protector from the Verizon store. Protected my screen well, but made the picture look, I don't know, pixelated? Not sure how to describe it.

please stay away from sgp case,
just like the euro version, top mic is still covered,
i had it for a day, plastic felt very cheap, and overall it felt very clumsy.

I opted for a elago breathe case. It's not bumper case but it doesn't add much bulk to the thickness, and feel helluva lot better than sgp shit case. Screen protectors are good, but please stay away from it.

It is a two piece design. There is a soft rubber piece that fits on first. The rubber is very soft and feels high quality. The thin plastic shell fits over the rubber piece. Only the rubber piece goes over the power and volume buttons. The rubber is built up over the buttons and sticks through the holes in the plastic shell. The buttons still give excellent tactile feedback. I don
