Hey,

I've recently bought a Samsung Galaxy R, and it's a great phone. The only thing that worries me is that some day I might inadvertently drop it and crack that glass on the screen, or break the back cover, which seems really flimsy. Any idea where I can get good protective cases for the phone? No luck on eBay or Flipkart (eBay had some ROCK cases ( http://www.rockphone.cn/en/products_detail.asp?menuid=336&brandid=35&id=286 ), but seller said that were out of stock).

Will a Samsung Galaxy S2 case fit the R? They both seem to be almost the same size with very similar button/slot placements... if this is possible then I'll have a lot more options, since no one seems to be making cases for Galaxy R.

I tried out some S2 covers today, and although the soft cases fit my phone, the camera and button placements are different.

@teja92 Thanks for the heads-up on the Capdase! I had no idea that they made cases for Galaxy R... Can't seem to find the case anywhere around though. Found it on eBay now http://www.ebay.in/itm/Capdase-Soft...Accessories&hash=item3f12b1ee10#ht_2470wt_907

One shop owner told me that casemate also makes hard covers for Galaxy R, but I couldn't find any info on these online. Can anyone verify this? Does anyone have a casemate hard case for Galaxy R?

Will this case effect the heat dissipation of the phone? And what about the thickness? If it makes the phone too bulky, I assure you will just keep it aside after 4-5 months.

Get them locally.. online shops keep only things that are not available locally or things that give them good profit margin.

IIRC you are from Pune, try the shops at the start of JM Road, near the petrol pump after StanChart bank or at Sagar Arcade, near Good Luck Chowk, F C Road.

OK, I'll check out those places. Hopefully I can get something locally...

Hi,

Did you get any case ??

I am also on a hunt for a good case for my R . . .

The one I have currently is same as the Capdase case but was searching for something better.

Do keep us updated here on which case you finally bought.
