Best Case for Samsung Galaxy S3

**galaxyboy** · 03-09-2013, 12:00 PM

I just want to know if you people at Android Central will tell me about their case experience with Ballistic or Otterbox.

For reviews on Otterbox (probably Ballistic too) go to Amazon and Otterbox's website. Don't know which Otterbox model you're considering but reading the reviews from both of those sites convinced me that I shouldn't buy the Defender. I bought a BodyGlove ToughSuit that I like very well.

I definitely love the Otterbox! It keeps my phone from getting scratched.

Urban armor gear is by far the best. I loved it more than all of my otterbox cases for this phone.

LifeProof is in the process of designing a GS3 case. I have found them to be the best bang for the buck while keeping the phone profile slim and adaptable.

Both make very good cases in my opinion. Currently I'm using my Ballistic more due to the slimmer form factor. I too am waiting for lifeproof to bring out the case for the S3. But I am also looking forward to the Otterbox Armor series case to come out, it's supposed to be extremely durable. When I'm not working I'll use my UAG Aero. So all in all it'll be up to you and your personal taste and what you are wanting the case to do for you.

Thanks for all of your opinions. I got the Ballistic SG. Even though the Defender is very durable there is one downside, the silicone starts to stretch and looks awful. The Armors Series is the best on the planet though. I got shocked by the things it could do.

Do you have the white one?
If so did it turn yellowish with age?

I've got the white one (about 5 mos.) and no signs of discoloration

Well today 5-6-13 I received the Otterbox Armor Series for my SGS3. I'm very impressed, the case though bulky is everything Otterbox claims. And I am having none of the other problems reported with people with the iPhone 4 & 5 as far as the sound goes. The sound degradation on the main earpiece is negligible at best I mean it's barely noticable. The speakerphone is still just as good as it was. I have no issues with the sound at all. The quality of the case is great thus far. I will post again after a couple of weeks use to let everyone know how it's performing.

I've had an urban armor gear case for a couple months now. It is the best $20 I've ever spent! Perfect case!

I have the otterbox defender and it keeps my phone safe. However, the screen protector is horrible. It is soft plastic that fades and scratches easily. Furthermore, when the rubber cover gets old it pulls away from the corners and mine has stretched enough that if it werent for the port covers it would probably fall off. Overall, it is a satisfactory case but the durability of the materials is in question. The case is about 7 months old.

In regards to Lifeproof the company is full of it. By the time the case comes out we will all be wearing Goolge Glasses.
