QUOTE(LostAndFound @ May 30 2011, 05:52 AM) Noone layan my Linux question - guess noone use here =). I will be first! Anyway, current users, what casings/protector you all using? Is iDefense ( http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/729138 ) good? I actually looking more for hard casing (otterbox style), any recommendations here? Case-mate Tough case is great. Trying getting it on eBay. The seller I buy from is pretty reliable. UK based. I'm using tough cases on my HTC Desire and SGS, extremely reliable. Protects the device well adds minimum bulk compared to a leather case or otterbox.

QUOTE(benny888 @ May 30 2011, 10:41 AM) Just recieved my ARGOS SGP leather case from Korea : it cost me US$ 43 delivered. Delivery took 7 days by air parcel. I purchased it from : http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=150605091894Extremely happy - very nice soft feel genuine leather. Fits the SGS II perfectly. Overall it looks first class. See pics below COver that comes with the case // Inside view [attachmentid=2243884][attachmentid=2243886] With phone inserted : Front view//Back view[attachmentid=2243888][attachmentid=2243889] Front View//Back View[attachmentid=2243891][attachmentid=2243892] What a beast! i was thinking of getting the White Argos for myself and another Vintage for my friend, been looking around last week and it seems like ExportPrive is cheaper since the price is USD 34.37 (+ another USD2.15 for secure post) . We worried about the postage previously because i lost my parcel once when i was getting my Dell Streak's accessories in eBay without the secure post but it seems like i shouldn't worry about it much now since Uncle Benny got his in such a perfect shape and nice shipment. Really a nice case, uncle benny~

However many rumour said they are lower quality yet no one able to prove them They save on QC. I worked in manufacturing before. Usually the products destined for 3rd world countries like India and China, the QC not so stringent so they save alot of $$ on that. For EU countries the QC is damn strict so alot of extra $$ there. So essentially you are paying for the QC, the product however is essentially the same.

Doesn't protect the screen right?

QUOTE(LostAndFound @ May 30 2011, 01:29 PM) Looking at it, looks good. Doesn't protect the screen right? The edges of the tough case are raised about 2mm. This give a 2mm gap between any surface and the screen when placed face down. I still use a screen protector anyway. It won't protect the screen if you drop it face down on gravel or the road since there are defitinely sharp points greater than 2mm on these surfaces that could potentially hit the screen. I've had 1 incident myself dropping my Desire with the tough case face down un uneven surface, my SP got a nick, but the screen was fine underneath. The case absorbed most of the shock. Without the case, I guess my Deisre would be a right-off by now on the surface I dropped it. I'm not here to promote it though. I love mine. They do the job, not much extra bulk, and most importanly to me, is the excellent grip the provide. Nothing like it.
