its called a fishbone case
I had one of these for my iPod, not a bad case, interesting look.

Looks like a Switcheasy Rebel clone.
Looks good... any link to where you saw it first?
Yes it is very much like a switcheasy case.
I was searching on Google for galaxy s2 fishbone case, they seem to be sold through many different places and lots of different colors.

I would have a switcheasy case on my S2 if they made them. I've had a neotouch case on my itouch since the day I got it and the thing looks almost new when I pull the case off. Super-awesome.
I seen a couple at a kiosk at the mall. Ill check them out.

few more pics
I bought a red one from ebay for 8.99. The plastic fishbone is smooth but the rubber inside is kind of thin. But together they work pretty good. I also bought the HTC versions for my husband and son.
Got one of these last month. great case, easy to hold. I got blue hoping it would go good with the ICS theme I am using. It looks great.
been debating on one, how much thicker and heavier did it make the phone.
thanks
Looks nice. Thanks for sharing.
It does give a little weight too the phone, but it makes it feel sturdier. With the case on my phone, it is about .250" thick. It protects the camera lens nicely. I have attached some photos of what it looks like on the phone and off. Hope it helps.
Are they as solid as an otterbox? I have the commuter right now and I'm real happy with it but I could go for some color
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA App
No, I don't think so. They are more protective than a TPC case but not an Otterbox.
The problem I have with this kind of cases is all of the lint that attaches to them. I wish they could make these with coated silicone or tpu instead. Lint makes it look terrible.
EBay search link? Case looks cool. I got a tpu and the sgp Neo hybrid. My sgp silicone backing has stared to sag due to gaming >44°c I figured if it gets bad I can turn it into Neo hybrid ex. Haha.

Not sure if you wanted the link but here is one for the ebay store where i purchased mine. He has many different colors and the shipping time is really awesome. I bought it on a Saturday and it was at my house on Monday, coming from California to Arkansas.

just got this today from amazon for 37$
i like the look and quality
makes the volume and power buttons easier to press!
wireless charging works with nokia fatboy pillow
i cant wait to get the ibolt car dock, we'll see if it fits with this case!
Does it feel a lot thicker? How thick is it? In person, how does it look? Beautiful? Do you know how it compares to an otterbox defender (size wise)?
Thanks!

I don't know how it compares to the otterbox cuz this is the only case I've got for the DNA
Any strong protection will add some girth its not alot and I don't mind
I would have preferred the white and black instead of the white and grey but that's all amazon had
I think the case is very nice

Where did you get this case from? I checked on Amazon and could not find it at all. The only ones that showed up in my search were the "SG" cases, but not the SG MAXX. I looked on Ballistic's site and the MAXX case is listed as "Coming Soon"..

I ended up getting mine for 31.99 free shipping. And so far i love mine.
Any complaints yet after using this case. Im interested but hesitant for some odd reason

I don't have the SG Maxx, but have the SG case and I find that, while it provides exceptional protection, the hard plastic part of the case is squeezing the DNA a bit much. I notice blue splotches on the phone screen when viewing a page with a white background, like when there's pressure on the screen. the Trident Aegis might be a better alternative. The Aegis also made provisions for the rear notification light.
Thanks for the reply

I been using the sg maxx for awhile now and I have no issues
I work in construction and the holster works perfectly
I don't have any issues of the case holding the phone too tightly
I use the case with the ibolt car dock for navigation as well

I bought an incipio case a couple days ago. Its a 2 layer case that doesnt seem to add very much bulk to it i like it alot. I havent dropped it yet so i can say anything about durability but it seems like it could take a hit. one thing i did find i didnt like is that it make the volume rocker very sensitive but besides that i cant complain. it also came with a screen protector. incipio dual pro case
As well as hands-on impressions? I'm very much in the market for a case, and looking at the Spigen ones. Torn between the Neo-Hybrid, Slim Armor, and Ultra Fit.
Since the phone just came out, I think it would be helpful for the early adopters to post some images for the rest of us. So we can make an informed decision! :laugh:
buy all 3!
Just placed an order for the Neo Hybrid Slate Metal. Reviews for the neo hybrid all seem positive based off S4 reviews of the case.

FOUND Perfect Belt Holder for NOTE3!
After checking out all the stores.... I could not find a vertical Belt Holder for the NOTE3...until, I found a professional seamstress. She made this modification from a store bought holder! PERFECT Fit with just about a 1/4" sticking out so I can quick grab it for calls! Let me know if you might be interested in one! I can send your her store name...Michael ($48.00 case & Shipping)

Cruzerlite Bugdroid Case [pics and video]
Cruzerlite has been one of my favorite case companies for Android devices. When I used my Galaxy S3 and S4 as my daily driver device I always ended up using a Cruzerlite case for my case daily driver. Specifically I used the Android green A2 case for the GS3 and the Android Clone Army for the GS4. The design is simple but it looks good and thin. The same great designs are now available for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.
What I like about Cruzerlite cases is that they are thin, smooth, pocketable and look great. TPU material is actually very durable. So you will be protected against scrapes, scratches and bumps. The case is raised above the screen so you have the option to place the phone face down without worry of screen damage. The case will protect against most drops. The installation is very easy and all ports/buttons are fully accessible. The Androidified case also has some extra grip on the sides that will help reduce the chances of the dreadful drops.
The green Bugdroid case looks really cool. The outline of the Andy logo stand out and the circuit board design really brings out the Android pride. Personally I like the green color and I think it looks cool on the white Note 3. One of my favorite designs Cruzerlite has is the Circuit Androidified case lineup.

why is there a huge cut out there? no mic hole or anything.. maybe a theres a note 3 that has the antenna thing that they have in asia because they like to watch tv and cruzerlite just made it like that so they can just manufacture one case... im not sure could help for heat from the cpu? i did notice it gets hot close to that area..maybe the cpu chip is by there..
thanks for the pic.. seems like a hole instead of the note 1 case were you can use a strap or a phone charm ect..

well mine just came.... fits nice but not perfect.. its ok.. i tried to realign it and pop it out and back in and you can still see the bezel on top/bottom pop out a bit just like the pic on the web site ..we get what we pay for.. its pretty slim thin i like it but my spigen is a tank of a case i seem to like it more even it has a more bulk to it. i still like the case.. i did notice it dont have a cut out hole the the right bottom corner next to the S-Pen as you can see..
also theres like a black dot or something on the back i tried to wash it but seems like it was caked/baked in the case.. should i contact them about it and the no hole for the what i think its the mic hole next to the S-PEN corner?

With the soft grip/nylon/leather back & strong screen this phone to me seems like an ideal canidate for a bumper case to protect the edges from getting scratched up. Anyone found/using one?
Thanks
Never had any luck with bumper cases. Always seemed to peel off when taking phone out my pocket. I just go with a full case but I always try and find one not so bulky.
Usually Verizon puts one out for their droids I think.

Moto X Pure comes with a bumper case, but I think that's because of the high likelihood of screen breakage on the phone.

I'm very happy with this TPU case ordered from Amazon.com. It is offered in a few colors. They are about as thin a case as I have ever used. I did have a thin hard shell case for my Moto X that I liked a bit better. But, this does the trick and improves the handling.

If you find one, please post it!
I would really want a bumper one friend of mine has a moto x and it look really clean.
Incipio Bumper?
I emailed Incipio and asked if they had plans to make a bumper for the T2. Maybe it would help if more people emailed them and asked. Here is the email I got back.
Hello,
Thank you for the email. At this time we are not sure if we are going to release a bumper case for the Moto Droid Turbo 2. We kindly ask that you follow us on social media and sign up for our newsletter for upcoming announcements and release dates.
