Samsung Galaxy S3 - Soft Case Review Roundup

2012-06-26
hey Android lovers this is Clayton over to Android Authority calm today I've got a galaxy s3 soft case extravaganza got the seven different soft case I'm gonna be throwing on the Samsung Galaxy s3 and I'll let you guys decide which one is your favorite I know I've got a few within these pile of cases here anyways we've got our black cool event case we've got some sci mo clear soft case we've got an amaz our jelly silicon case we've got a fuzz Minh black basically jelly case we've got a Galaxy s3 k case white gel case we've got a box wave silicone clear case and then we finally have our unicolor samsung galaxy s3 black two-part case there so without further ado let's just rip into some of these throw them on our galaxy s3 and see if it makes it look sexy first off we're going to go into our k case dot-com case just tear this open throw it on the galaxy s3 now a lot of manufacturers we're making cases before the flood was even out so I've ran into a few problems regarding uh the holes being cut in the right place but most of these I haven't tried so we'll just give them a fair chance ways we've got our samsung galaxy s3 this is the GTI 9300 mind you the gsm unlocked version will just pop her in here this one's got a nice tight fit I like the look of the white on white got our holes cut in all the right places perfect placement here for the camera the LED in the speaker got our headphone jack just fine got a micro USB here we've got a raised button for the power and then raised buttons for the volume rocker they're not cutouts but they work pretty well a little bit hard to press not the easiest thing in the world to press but it's still really nice the white on white look is nice gives it some raised edges here so if it's all right down as long as there wasn't anything on the ground that wouldn't puncture the screen so we'll just take this one off say this is a nice case for anyone who wants a slim design some white-on-white features if you've got the white Galaxy s3 following up with that one we'll just try one that's a black that might basically be the same thing this is our fossil encase as you can see on the back this one's pretty cool we've got almost like an X going on I like the look of that and then we've got some grip sort of plastic here not to slide resistant but it's fine if does the job just pop our galaxy s3 in there now I'm one who likes the look of the white on black so this one looks pretty cool to me our volume rocker is kind of unresponsive I can barely press the buttons of this one and then same with our power button I'm pressing a few times and I might get the screen on about once out of every four times I press it's like we got our cutouts pretty much in line what's all of our LED speaker and camera or fine or headphone jack they're little bikes everything's fine it's got a nice raised edge just like the last one falls down it'll be protected and this is sort of a nice plastic that has some give to it that's a little bit of Bounce it'll save your galaxy s3s from awesome damage here's our answer it has a really nice feel you'll be surprised if this one was a yes this is the silicone skin case this is silicone it's not really a hard plastic like these it's gonna be kind of different this one might attract a few more debris particles and whatnot but it does is pretty malleable it's nice feeling compared to our pawsome in here this one will have more bounced protection but it's not as hard and durable so we'll just slide this one of the galaxy s3 I like this one it's fine um the silicone is a little bit of too soft of a feel for me but it is pretty impact absorbing has some nice bounce to it and the cutouts are really easy to hit power button simply hit volume rocker easy cutouts are in the right spot looking good raised edges take this one off so this one's a pure clear case here you can see we've got some on transparency here and then almost a like a smoked glass look here each glass so it's nice kind of malleable upper Galax has three in there now I don't love the look of the clearcase on here it's a little too sterile for my tastes but I do like it it's alright the cutouts are on the right spot got our power button that's easily pressable this one actually you can press the power the volume rockers a little bit easier than the rest of the ones so far cutouts in the right place we've got a little loop here that we can pop a keychain on or a little tether maybe if you wanted a stylus screens big enough these will take this off all these cases are actually pretty easy to take off and put on I forgot to mention that but they all are pretty simple to take off and put on for next one here there's our unicolor sam galaxy s3 it actually has a resealable package for those of you who wanted pristine case uncontaminated by air particles these we'll take this out this one is definitely our hardest so far not really bendable it's gonna be durable strong backing we've got our manipulation right here but we can't really bend to the back at all so we'll slide our galaxy s3 and this one it was a little tougher to get on but it's just fine love to look at the black on white on the front and then you can still see the white on the back I'm actually liking this case a lot feels nice because they'll see the Samsung cutouts are all in the right place power button is easy to hit the volume rockers are easy to use I give this case an A+ I like this one a lot I might keep this one on here in fact just uninstall it real quick really rigid I'm gonna protect your Samsung Galaxy s3 a lot so this is our duo suit Sam galaxy s3 the frosted clear from box wave just open up from the top here bringing you tomorrow's products today one's another sort of transparent extra class this one looks just like the other one except for they both aren't box wave pretty weird huh that's the manufacturers doing the similar stuff anyways gonna pop this one on and just like the other one just fine power buttons work volume rockers work well to actually carry those clicked got our cutouts little tether pork grip here on the sides take this one off last but not least save this one because this one uh you know it's it's suitable for the galaxy s3 this is our design set for sim some mobile case any mode better protect your mobile phone from Knox and scratches with the case type all the cases decided combated with a range of Samsung handsets Seaford for packaging see front of packaging for compatibility way so let's open this one up and this one's pretty rigid I like it um you know I'm not so sure what other Samsung products would fit in this size of galaxy s3 now this makes me a little leery but the galaxy s3 does fit the vent case is kind of cool got our little lanyard or our tether holster here all of our cutouts are in the right spot so this right here does look like it's made for the Samsung Galaxy s3 there's not too many other camera LED and speaker configurations like that neither is there a headphone jack anyways what I don't like is that this although it does allow you to see your exposed chrome accents here there's going to be no protection for the side impact but you can still hit the volume of course and the power buttons very easily also there's not too much of a raised edge to provide a protection from a down down side impact so anyways guys that was our case of Stravaganza our soft case at least we've got a few more case extravaganzas coming at you got our hard cases and we've got some leather holsters and sports active wear cases whatnot coming in this is a collection of all the ones we went over today pretty nice amount of cases and I'd suggest picking your favorite one up for the Samsung Galaxy s3 provided with some maximum protection you don't want your baby getting hurt anyways stay tuned with Android 30.com guys and we're bringing you a heck of a lot more where this came from later
