Alternative To Otterbox Defender - Galaxy Note II Accessories

What is an alternate case to the Rugged Defender W/Zero Lemon Battery...
What off Brand ones have people been using?

I don't think anyone is using anything besides the modded defender (or deNfender Chinese knockoff) or the tpu it comes with...
I'm using the tpu with a flygrip and a home made flip cover that I keep improving.
Going to post pics today but don't know if anyone will care. But it works for me! lol

Any thin case like Incipio Feather?

Hi,
Anyone know thin case like Incipio Feather for Nexus 7?
It looks like tpu, but hard material, not gel kind.
Something like this:
http://www.incipio.com/Samsung-Gala...-Nexus-feather-Ultralight-Hard-Shell-Case.asp
I dont really like tpu, nor metal, nor folio shape.
Thanks
The only thing I would suggest would be the poetic element (I think that's what it's called). There's a review for it a few posts up

Nah... This is totally different.
Incipio feather only protect the back side, and it is made from hard plastic, and very thin.

Well, I'll compare it with car bumpers. So none of the car bumpers isn't covering it's floor, likewise phone bumper doesn't cover it's back.
Can you dig it?

I believe this what the OP is looking for. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008CK4SB2/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8
I have one for my S3. But yah no luck. I haven't found any for our phones yet. I contacted the company but they said that at the moment they have no intentions of supporting our phones. Sucks. This phone has the worst luck with anything. I still love it tho. Lol.

Thanxs for good explanation, but what is than this that we called bumper?
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
I've been thinking about cutting the back off of my cheap gel case. Or buying a rubber wrist band and cutting out holes for the ports/buttons.
Is there any special advantages of having a bumper over a gel case?

I'm really satisfied with my gel case. Try s-line gel case for your phone in eBay. I got mine for under 5€.

I cut a elago s5 case to use with the flip cover yesterday but if you look closely at the flip cover beside the regular battery door its considerably thicker... no way its going to go on. A tpu case wont work either im afraid.. its just too thick.

Black carbon fiber battery door replacement

I bought it from ebay.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Carbon-Brus...lePhonesCasesPouches&var=&hash=item53ef678d0f
I must have been lucky cause it arrived in 6 days - overseas shipping Hong Kong to New Zealand
Overall the fit of the case is really good, fits as good as my oem one. Everything clicks into place.
The carbon fibre immitation weave looks good, its made up of plastic. It kinda reminds me of a wicker basket pattern.
The texture feels alot grippier than stock case and has a matte finish to it.
What about NFC? And does it come in other colors?

I saw this listed on EBay and now that I see what it looks like installed, I may get one myself. I'll bet it would look sweet with a black aluminum bumper case too! My only concern is if it's thicker than the original cover. The bumper cases are a pretty tight fit.
I don't have any calipers to measure it but it feels real slim. At a guess it may be like 1mm thicker but minimal.
I haven't tried removing my stock nfc as I don't use it so can't answer your question

Thanks for that, I'm undecided tbh. Not sure I like the look of the black one.

I had the same hesitation but after trying the black I can tell you that it is just great. There is a commuter thread where I have posted some photos.

Thanks for that, I found your photos and the one of the phone on the case next to the box looks really nice. I thought the white one would provide a nice contrast but really not sure now.
What's grip like on the back?

It is slippery but this is a great case. For my taste it is thin enough amd really sturdy. Highly recommended.
I've currently got the Samsung hard cover and I like it other than the glossy back panel, I had the glacier commuter on my white s3 and I really liked it.
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
same with me as well. I have the samsung cover and kind of want the commuter but I am worry about the thickness and bulkines it adds to the note.
I have a Speck , Samsung protective cover and the Otterbox commuter. I prefer the Commuter overall. I have the White N2 with black Commuter and like the look. Btw I had a Defender and hated it. Way too much bulk for me.

I used to use the original Samsung protective cover, but a month ago I dropped my phone in the bathroom and cracked my screen. have to replace them for 120$. now I'm using Otterbox defender and it protects my phone from a few big drops, but the included screen protector is really bad. anyway if I have to purchase a case again, an Otterbox commuter would be really good in protecting your precious phone. it adds some bulk, but it feels really comfortable in the hand, and you don't have to feel worried about your phone anymore.
I have this case but I don't like the color that much

I have the Commuter, the grip is very slippery so I just use the Aegis instead
Ibwould love to have the light gray rubber part with the black back. Think yhat woukd look great on thr titanium note 2
Would ypu be willing to trade rubber covers then? I also would like to have the black with white hard cover
