Trident Aegis or Otterbox Commuter? - Galaxy Note 3 Accessories

I've been doing my research but I haven't really found a lot of reviews on the Aegis. I'm leaning towards Trident more because they have been my main cases for all my galaxy phones. The cases Otterbox cases for the S2, S3, and the Note 2 have all disappointed me. Is the Commuter for the Note 3 different from the rest or is it more of the same?

love my Trident. used one on my rezound and never looked back. I might step up to the trident Cyclops, but not sure yet.
very happy with the aegis. very protective, feels really light and compared to my friends I5 with otterbox, mine is only 2.5oz heavier. he was shocked
I got the green/blk one.
I'd post pics, but this stupid site won't let me post pics OR edit. some forums (and that dumbass image verification)

How much bulk does it add? I loved my Aegis on my Note 2. I went ahead and got it from newegg. It was on special for $16.95 and that sealed the deal for me. I think otterbox is a bit overrated.
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk

imo, next to none. you can hardly tell it's there, weight wise. never thought twice about it once it was on.

I have two of the Otterbox Commuters for my note and I love it. They're durable but still sleek enough to put in your pocket with no problem.

Anyone have it yet?
I have the defender and love it!! VZW threw it in when I picked up my Rezound. Way nicer than my wifes on her iphone. Rubber stays put, covers for the ports and nice rounded edges.

Did they have the commuter in stock in the store?
never even asked

Do it fit the extended battery also
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
No the extended battery won't fit if it is anything like the Otterbox on my Desire
I ordered one last night directory from Otterbox. I had one on my DI and loved it. I'll post pics when it comes in. It looks pretty nice in the pictures. The cases Verizon had sucked. I got a gel case for temporary. Guy said I had 14 days to return it as long as it wasn’t all beat up. Only Otterbox case Verizon had was the defender. And that's just too much case IMHO.

I am not sure what to do. I can either order an otterbox and hope it comes before thanksgiving and have it delivered to my house or I can have it delivered to me at school but I will be almost a week without a case then
I saw that Verizon had the shell holster case say it fits the standard and extended battery

Just got off the phone with V got an early upgrade to the Rezound and the fellow asked if I needed to order a case. They only had the Ottterbox Defender. I had already ordered a Commutter direct from Otterbox. The two shall meet on Monday and become one.
Not sure if it will be delivered by wednesday or the friday after thanksgiving. I am not sure if I should ship it to school or my house where I will be next week.
Also just ordered mine. Mad they dont have faster shipping options. Defender is way to large for me lol. (That's wut she said) but I ordered the commuter yesterday so i should have it early next week. Its looks good IMO. Hopefully it feels just as good..
I also hope maybe it will have a cover for the camera. As the battery plate doesn't... Scared my lenses is gonna scratch and give me nexus quality pictures :-(
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
I picked up the defender yesterday, and actually really like it. I generally get the commuter as well, but it has a great feel to it. It makes the buttons MUCH easier to use, which is a huge plus in my opinion. It also offers a very good screen protector that doesn't take away from the screen clarity like the protectors VZW sells.
We will have to see how long I can do with the rubber picking up lint (which it does, quite a bit actually)...but I have to say I like it better than all the other cases I've tried at my local Verizon store.
I have the otterbox commuter series for my rezound. Love it. They've turned me into a serious fanboi. Fit is absolutely flawless. The hard plastic shell is great too. I'm not using the screen protector.
If you're on the fence regarding this case...don't be.
Best phone accessory I've owned.

Otterbox has been my #1 for a long time. All their cases are great. And their warranty is too. Does the commuter have any kind of cover for the camera lense? Or is it thick enough to not be an issue?

Nothing physically over the lens. However it does offset the lens roughly a 1/16th of an inch. Enough so you can slide it across a table without worry. It's the same with the screen. I don't use the included screen protector so that offset is key.
everyone of my devices has a otterbox defender, the best cases i've ever used

Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
Has anyone tried the Commuter? I think the defender would just be more than I need. My only major problem with this phone is the WORTHLESS flush mounter buttons. I always almost drop my phone trying to use them. I know at least one person has said that the Defender makes the buttons much easier to use, can anyone attest to this being the same on the Commuter? From the picture they look nice and raised like on the Defender, but I want to be sure, as right now whatever case I get will be based largely on making the buttons easier to press.
Also, how does that membrane on the Defender work? Is it just a sheet of plastic connected to the case rather than stuck to the screen? Wouldn't dust and/or moisture get trapped under there?

Otterbox for galaxy note?...

Any word on an otterbox for the galaxy note? Or possibly something similar with heavy duty protection (heavy duty case with holster). I'm not into flip cases, gel skins, pouches or TPU.

Otterbox have not announce anything for the Galaxy Note, so we have to wait and see.

Wow I can't wait. I already ordered Impact Heavy Duty which have otterbox quality and it cheaper (10 buck). It so bulk like the otterbox, but don't have screen protector and have kick-stand. I can't wait to get the Defender!
Great - I will wait until the Defender comes out.

Awesome news! I have a case now but would switch.
I've been on them on their Facebook page for weeks.... Same replies. I'm awaiting its arrival but fear they may not release a defender due to size.
On a lighter note, I was in a best Buy in green bay and saw 2 Defenders brand new for a...... Wait for it..... Dell Streak! Only $39.99!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA App
Lol, unbelievable @defenders for dell streak. The dell streak has a 5 inch screen so otterbox should at least consider it for the note. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I really want a defender for my note.

I'd much rather see a Ballistic or Trident case. Otterbox tends to use their best materials/factories for the iPhones.
I like the level of protection both trident and ballistic offers but they should include a clip with them

Otterbox is good an all.. but if we could get these guys to make a case for our phone, we'd be set.
Saw it at Best Buy and emailed them a few times. Even offered my phone up for prototyping purposes, but I'm thinking they aren't into it, despite the number sold.

Same here. I had a Defender on my Atrix for about two weeks before I decided it was simply too bulky for everyday use. Swapped to a Seidio Active and haven't looked back. I'd love a Seidio Active for my Note. I can only imagine a Defender for the Note being slightly less bulky than a laptop bag.
I understand seidio is less bulky than otterbox, but does it offer the same level of protection? I wouldn't want to compromise thinness over it not protecting the phone from drops very well.

But they did an awesome job with the iphone 4 Defender in keeping it trim yet protective. That design, holster and all is exactly what they need to make for us.

The only decrease in protection that I could imagine would be the rubber flaps for ports and whatnot on the defender. The seido active or other cases like the speck candyshell are awesome at drop protection just like the defender. I've dropped phones in these cases before from 5-6 feet off the ground onto concrete and absolutely no harm done to the device. Unless you're big on the port coverage, I don't see why people buy the defender, as it has so much unnecessary bulk. I know you want the belt clip/holster though, so it looks like the seido active would be a good choice once they have it.

Otterbox on note

I got a reply back today from otterbox. I asked if they planned on making a case for the note. They said they're working on the otterbox commuter case for the note as we speak and should be available soon. Thought I would post just in case anyone was interested.
G~Note "nuff said"
I had an Otterbox case for my Streak, and loved it, but I have to say that I am shocked at the quality of this generic case I got on ebay for like $8! Head over to the accessories forum and you'll see some pretty happy campers who spent less than $10 for a case...
Sent from my SGH-I717R using Tapatalk
I have used Otterbox cases in the past but the last time i checked they were listing the case for the G Note at 56$ Um they can kiss my business g buy. I got a very good Reiko case from a seller on ebay for 8.88$ delivered The Reiko case is everybit as good as a defender from over priced otter! I tend to be from the school "ya get what ya pay for" but the Reiko case even has a kickstand, flap covers that cover charging an earphone ports.
I had bought one of those off brand cases for my ns4g on amazon. It came with a stylus and like 3 screen protectors for 10$! They're are some good deals out there so I agree. I seen that reiko with the kickstand think I seen a red/black one. I might have to get it. I bought the flipbook (hated it before I took a chance) I was surprised tho. Note looks sexy just doesn't offer much protection in case of a drop
G~Note "nuff said"
Otter says on their site that they sell their own products higher on their site then what their resellers sell for b/c they would rather you buy through them but won't refuse money. So the price quoted is always higher then what is available once they start shipping. I bought a commuter for my Vibrant and loved it. I did break it eventually and that happened by removing it so many times. I just wish I could get the Defender for this thing. I may have to look at some of the knock offs out there for such a dramatically lower priced case. I still just want a nice (brown) leather belt clip holster since leaving the tie off is considered a casual day at work for me.
Otter box return policy
Even tho theirs prices are little higher than the norm, the have excellent warranty policy and will pretty much ship you a complete new case if need be, providing you date and name the pictures. I've received a couple through this process (All defenders cases), ex complete case (SGN), replaced several holsters (Iphone, Backberry, Nexus S)

I've had an Otterbox on every device I've had so far (iPad & iPhone). They really make some great cases (a bit costly but worth every cent). I can't wait until I can get one for the Note.
I love otterbox too, however, I needed something right away. I'm a bit to clumsy to gamble on a $750 device. I ordered an "active" case from Seidio, they are similar to otterbox except no screen protector (I use zagg anyway). One thing I like about Sedio products over otter is the options. It's a three layer case with the first layer having the capability to be a simple standard case. Check them out if you don't feel like waiting.

I've used their case with holster for my charge, the belt clip has held up very well. I was mistaken on my first post. I thought this was the equivalent of the defender series. After looking at it again, I see that it is more like the commuter series from otter box but with a holster. Still a great case/holster combo in my opinion. I can't post a link yet, but check out the online store at seidio.com.

The dude at the ATT store told me Otterboxes were "bulky pieces of crap".
Then he proceeded to try to sell me a Speck case for FIFTY BUCKS.
I had to pass I too am looking forward to a commuter case.
Moved to Accessories​
As this is a post about accessories it should be in that section​
I have received confirmation from my otterbox rep that cases are in the works
I've received my case from Seidio, and I like that it doesn't make it that much thicker. On a phone this size, any bulkiness may be a bit to much. I'm also glad to hear that otter is working on one as well. I have a gift card for them and would like to compare cases.
Either way, the active case from Seidio is what I expected. I also cut my own custom screen protector from a HD Zagg designed for the kindle fire. I think the stylus works better with the HD version then their standard protector.

Way too big. Your strapping a giant case on a giant phone...
I've had one of these on my N2 for the last year and it has been my favorite case hands down. Probably saved the device several times.
UAG are the best cases out there. I have had several and provide great protection and the buttons are great

Love uag had one on my note 2...adds a small bit of bulk but the protection is comparable to the otterbox commuter which is typically bulkier.. I know the note is huge but I'd rather give up the sleek factor than replace a 700$ phone... I think it's the best case for size to protection ratio.... Sure otterbox defender is more durable but it turns your phone into a brick.. Love uag case just kinda wish it had a kickstand.. I'm picking this up and the seidio active along with a diztronic tpu

Curious if those two variants are the same dimensions... the one with the removable vent seems as though it would be slightly thicker.
Also, is venting really necessary for this device?

closest case to an otterbox... or better? For a painter/carpenter

Hey,
My dad's looking to get into the smartphone game and I'm telling him to get a Note III instead of the S4, only thing is there's no otterbox out right now, anything else that might protect the phone in a heavily dusted environment (he paints and does home improvement/carpentry for new homes), I need something very durable.
He's coming from a ravine that's taken a beating for a long time, what do you guys suggest?
I need something similar too.. Rugged + Belt clip..
Only two cases I have found so far have been otterbox and seidio but neither is available yet..

I had that one for some reason the plastic part was a little bit too sticky when you put it in your jeans you better be prepared to put in effort to get it out I'm not sure if it was because it got wet or why. But this case is good only issue with it is the home button area can get a bit annoying

Not sure this one offers as much protection as you are looking for, one reviewer says it is closer to the Otterbox commuter rather than the defender. I do like the fact that it also has covers for the ear phone and charging port, so that should be a bonus for keeping the dust/dirt out. I needed a holster case combo, and needed it quick so I ordered this one last night with express shipping. I can post an update on how it is once it is received. For the price, seems like it was worth a shot, but hopefully I won't regret it.

Since he doesn't need a belt clip, he should get a UAG case (Urban Armor Gear)! I have a UAG case for my Note 2 and love it! It is by far my favorite tough case out of all the companies who make them. I used to really like Otterbox cases, but since using a UAG case I'd never go back to an Otterbox! Otterbox offers great protection, but their style is a little plain. UAG offers protection AND style, so you get the best of both worlds. You also get a UAG screen protector with each case you order. I used their screen protector on my Note 2 and it's actually very nice, unlike Otterbox screen protectors which scratch and begin to look bad very quickly. I bought the white and black UAG for my Note 2. After many months of use, it looks just as good as the day I took it out of the box! The white has never yellowed like most white cases do, and there are no scratches on it, even after a few drops. Also, they have a lifetime warranty on their cases, so they'll replace it for free if you ever needed to for any reason. Their Note 3 case isn't available quite yet, but they'll ship in 5-7 days after you order.
EDIT : Here's the link to their Note 3 cases. They offer it in dark blue, white, orange, and black.

Since he doesn't need a belt clip, he should get a UAG case (Urban Armor Gear)! I have a UAG case for my Note 2 and love it! It is by far my favorite tough case out of all the companies who make them. I used to really like Otterbox cases, but since using a UAG case I'd never go back to an Otterbox! Otterbox offers great protection, but their style is a little plain. UAG offers protection AND style, so you get the best of both worlds. You also get a UAG screen protector with each case you order. I used their screen protector on my Note 2 and it's actually very nice, unlike Otterbox screen protectors which scratch and begin to look bad very quickly.

Out of all of those options, I think I like the UAG ones the best, they look sweet!
The only thing I'm worried about is the front not being covered up too well, might have to get him glass screen protector like mine
TechMatte makes amazing screen protectors!!! They just produced them and sent me one for testing, so I don't think they are available for sale to the general public just yet. I'll ask them and see when they'll be available. Ghost Armor is another great choice of you don't wanna wait! I've been using Ghost Armor for years, and they've been my favorite. Just recently, today actually lol, I've decided that TechMatte is now my favorite!!
