Cases and screen protectors - S3 mini

willihe_2

Just bought a Samsung S3 Mini - my first smartphone, and wondering about best way of protecting it.

CPW have Samsung cases where you replace the back plastic cover and it has a flap over cover. Looks smart, but also looks pretty flimsy, and expensive for what it is. Any one got one? Does the cover get in the way of use? Does it actually protect the phone. (Amazon seem to have some much cheaper, but some images seem to infer not all are genuine Samsung/ may be cheaper copies.)

Also thought about Tech21 bumper cover, either with or without flap cover.

CPW seems to recommend Zagg screen protector, but presumably wouldn't need one of these if case has a flap over cover.

Zagg screen protector,it can give you an orange peel effect on the screen and the have to wet the screen to fit them ,
do not buy cheep ones ,you will get lint and stuff under them ,
when you do buy a screen protector get a few you will mess one or two up fitting them,
this is like the Zagg but a lot cheaper http://www.xtremeguard.com/Samsung-Galaxy-S3-III-Mini-I8190-Screen-Protectors-p/s3-mini-i8190-screen-protector.htm#.UcOe0_m1HXI
here is a code for the above site ,(it may or may not work ,its a few week old now) 820ff2 it will give you 82% off two items,
(yes its an america site ,they do ship to the uk and still work out cheaper than buying here and it only takes about a week to come

for cases look on ebay and amazon they will be cheaper (amazon is usually better for good quality cases ,ebay is ok for cheap cases )
and thier is mobilefun too,but not so cheap,cheaper than CPW

Hiya.

I got one of these for mine, it replaces the back of your phone and the front cover keeps the screen clean and fingerprint free.
