Recommendation for Cellphone Case

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini and want to get a case for it. I prefer one that won't add bulk to the phone, but still offers good protection. Hard shell or Silicone?? Any suggestions (brands/styles) would be appreciated.

I can't recommend specific ones but I buy ""bling"" cases on Amazon or Ebay. Just do a search on the model of your phone and type in ""cases."" You should get a lot of choices.

bigsister, sidsmom & nutmeg3,

Thanks for your help. I searched ebay and found a Incipio that will fit my phone perfectly. It should arrive on Wednesday.

that is what i use for my iphone,too and i love it! and they stand behind their products - i was having a problem with the little flap on the bottom of my silicone case staying closed and contacted them and they shipped me a brand new one.{#emotions_dlg.thumbup1}

The OP also said they didn't want to add bulk. You put an Otter on a phone and it's like carrying a brick.

Yes, but it is a nice brick on my cell phone. It does not have any bling. The OP went to ebay to buy another case.

Re: Recommendation for Cellphone Case

I don't think Otterbox makes cases for the S3 Galaxy mini. Most places have probably stopped making them. Your best bet would be ebay or amazon. I love shopping for cell phone cases. I think Brahmin has some of the best cases and Kate Spade's are the worst.
