Ok, so I just dropped my phone and about had a heart attack. I need a case.

Im still upset that there isnt anything from otterbox yet, but I assume it will come out eventually.

What are you using? What do you like? Please post pics!

I like this one from Amazon, anyone using it?

TPU Cases now Available for the SGS2 (Includes Screen Protector)

Excellent permanent solution if you're looking for a minimalistic case, and an excellent temporary solution while you wait for something more robust or that offers more serious protection to be released.

Also FYI, there's an accessories Sub-Forum at the top that may include other ideas.

I use the one from sprint store the one with the kickstand. I dropped my phone with the case on and it took the beating and held up well. I want an otterbox too i didn't want to pay 30 bucks for this case but seems like its doing the trick. Will still probably get otterbox if they ever get one for our phones.

Second on the TPU cases. I got the matte-black for mine. In addition to protection, it makes it feel much more secure (less slippery) in my hands. A shame to cover up the lovely back of the case, but worth it IMO.

yea i have the tpu case from ebay on mines i love it very slim case dosnt add too much bluk to the phone but i do wanna otterbox

**GCMS** · 10-05-2011, 02:02 PM

But of course, everything comes out for the eyephone first

Another vote for the TPU cases. Fantastic slim case.

**mrnd23** · 10-05-2011, 03:33 PM

The TPU case is just awesome. I didnt think i would like any case on the phone considering that I loved its thin light form but with the TPU case the difference is impossible to notice. I also checked with TPU about white cases unfortunately it seems white isnt very popular and hence they wont be making any. So i got the white case from the first link too. Just ordered it today. will keep changing between white and black when i feel like.

Been using the case with the kickstand from Sprint from day one but today I ordered the matte black TPU case from Amazon. The Sprint one is a little bulky IMHO

TPU matte Black on mine

**dm3ready** · 10-05-2011, 07:57 PM

just ordered my TPU matte black on amazon....thanks for all the recommendations.

Does anyone have an idea or educated guess on how soon Otterbox will have one available?

I ordered the case from Sprint with the clear back. I like it a lot.

**forcvcr** · 10-06-2011, 12:14 AM

No case no screen protector, I like the look & feel of naked it's like a hi wire circus act no net. Just don't fall. so far I'm flawless... Wish sgs2 & I good luck!

Last 3 phones = 2 wins / 1 loss / OG Evo wasn't so lucky...

I'm running naked until I get an otterbox lol The phone is either in my hand, right pocket (with nothing else in it, not even my wallet) or on a flat surface near no edges. I rarely let anyone touch it and usually hold it myself when giving demonstrations. The size of the phone, although thin and light, definitely makes it easier to hold and slightly more difficult to drop.

**DAS** · 10-06-2011, 11:03 AM

No case or screen protector for me. One of the things I like about the phone is its slim form factor and light weight, and I don't want anything to added.

However, I do have a soft leather belt pouch to slip the phone into when walking around or out and about.

With the pouch I can remove the phone easily when I need it, and allow the "no so fortunate" to see what a phone should look like.

Only have a screen protector til Otterbox comes out... don;t want to spend $$ on something to just ditch it later... thats what the insurance is for anyway, right
