Samsung Galaxy S2
Recommended
Delighted with my Casemate Barely There. It adds hardly any extra bulk but gives a nice feeling of solidity and protection to the handset. I love the texture as well which is extremely tactile and not slippery in the slightest. You really do forget your phone is wearing a case at all.
This isn't the case for someone planning to take their Samsung to inhospitable environments like the beach or a festival or anywhere where extra protection from the elements is needed but for everyday urban use, it's perfect.

Does the trick with no echo
I bought this case because it was recommended for the phone and I was having a problem with other cases causing 'echo' on the sound. The barely there case fits realy well, and I have no complaints about echo since using it. Would have liked to get it in another colour, but black matches the phone so that's OK.

Just what i was looking for.
Very good quality flexible plastic case for galaxy s2.Not hard plastic like a crystal case so shouldnt mark the phone.Silicone like feel to the outside so you have a better grip.All cut outs are very precise and the one around the on/off button stops you pressing this button my mistake whilst handling the phone. Adds very little weight or bulk to the phone as it is so thin.Very happy with the case and the usual good service from Mobile Fun.

So pleased with this case
I had a case for my previous HTC phone and was delighted with it. I had no hesitation in ordering one for my new phone and I am equally pleased with this. It is just what it says, barely there, but very effective, lightweight and allows easy access to all of the phone controls. I like to have some form of cover for my phone and this one is perfect for the Samsung Galaxy and good value for money.

Case-Mate barely there
This case is brilliant. It is exactly what it says - barely there, and I thoroughly recommend it as a hard case for the Samsung Galaxy S2

Case MAte Galaxy S2
This is my fifth case and as usual this is the best product on the market. Ps mobile fun is becoming so quick at sending stuff now that one day I will end up with it just as I start thinking about it. Truly amaizing.

Delighted
Very pleased with this - fits really well, doesn't move round on the phone, looks smart. Very nice indeed. I haven't tested its protection (hoping to avoid doing so. ), but it should certainly keep the scratches at bay. Only one downside is it really seems to attract dust (and cat-hair!).

Very nice
I had "barely there" - case also on my HTC Desire and that was great,first impression about this was that is this thicker or something, doesn`t feel so good.. But after few hours I got used to it, no need to search anything else.

Case-Mate
What I didn't want to do was ruin what Samsung had achieved in making this phone so slim and light by fitting a heavy and bulky case, this skin does just that...its barely there! Great bit of kit

As described
The case is really good. Its thin so it doesn't add too much bulk to the phone and it protrudes just enough so that the screen or the camera don't come in contact with any flat surface. Although I think it wont do any good if you drop the phone.As for the sharp edges that everyone is talking about, they are there but personally I don't find them annoying.

Very handy case
For anyone that bought the S2 because of its slender frame this case allows it to remain quite thin and provides ample protection to the back and camera. The sides are also slightly raised to protect the screen when placed down flat (for instance when using the "upside down" silencing function). The buttons, sockets and mics/speakers are all fully accessible.
My only complaint is that the top and bottom ends of the phone aren't protected very well, leaving them prone to wear and denting.

Okay - NO screen protector included
Contrary to another review there is no screen protector included with this product so i'm going to have to order one separately. It's just a hard plastic case that clips nicely onto the back of the phone. If you have one of those sticky card or desk holders, you will need to be careful as it clings to the material of the case and will pull it off of your phone. Otherwise ir's a straightforward case and nothing to write home about.

excellent accessory
Brilliant accessory!! a must have for the samsung galaxy s2. Not explained but also comes with a screen protector so no need to buy 1 extra. Adds next to nothing to the phone. In both wieght and appearance. Thin but strong. Very liked product.

An absolute must have
After looking long and hard for a suitable case for my samsung galaxy s2, i found the case mate barely there, and it was worth every penny.
I was worried about a case adding extra bulk to the phone, which i really didn't want as the s2 is so slimline and light, but my worries were short lived when this arrived as it only adds about 1mm and weighs next to nothing.
This hasn't affected the amount of protection you get from the case though as it is extremely sturdy being made of a hard plastic.
The case also stands proud of the screen by about 0.5mm which adds a little more protection to the screen when laying it down.
The feel of the case is very nice to the touch, feeling like a soft rubber/latex, which adds a little extra grip when handling the phone.
Also included in the pack was a screen protector, which fitted perfectly and was a great bonus to the already fantastic product.
This really is a must have accessory to the S2 and is brilliant value for the quality of the product.

Casemate Barely There - Fits perfectly, excellent
I bought this case to protect my new phone from the bumps and bashes of life. It fits perfectly, with cutouts for the on/off key and volume rocker. Top and bottom are exposed allowing unrestricted access to the headphone socket and micro usb socket. It was supplied with a high quality screen protector which was easy to fit. An excellent purchase which I'm happy to recommend.

No full protection
Casemate Barely is very tough but thin case which will show true size of your Galaxy S2. Only problem is it will not cover the front four corners.

Samsung Galaxy S2 case
Great case...smart slim design that doesn't impact on the size of the phone. Tough rubberised hardcase fits like a glove...no drawbacks, does exactly what it says in the ad.

Does what it says on the tin.
Great case, it does what they say it will do; it protects your phone whilst being barely there! I felt it gave the phone a little more weight too which makes it more comfortable to use in your hand.
Just a note that it is not compatible with the official Samsung vehicle dock, you will need to remove it, if you want to use this.

Almost great
First of all, I was very happy with the Mobilefun service. Ordered just before 5 and it was on my desk when I got into the office the next day. Didn't even pay foe next day delivery.
The case fits the phone very well and provides just the right amount of grip. Smudges clean off quite easily. Doesn't add to much bulk to the phone which is really important for device like the SGS2.
My only complaint is that the plastic still has sharp edges where it was released from the mould and they irritate with prolonged use.

Happy with the service...case, not so much
Ordered at 16:59 and was on my desk at work first thing the next day - without using premium delivery. Usual great mobilefun service.
The case is slim and gives decent grip, but not too much like previous silicone cases I have had for other devices, which is good. It is largely constructed from one piece,but where it curves on the sides to shape round the phone, you can see and feel the join in the plastic with quite sharp edges towards the bottom. Also, the power/lock button is more difficult to hit; not an issue if you use the home button to unlock the screen.
My delivery did not include the premium screen protector included in the description
It is not a very expensive case and it does fit the device well, with cut-outs in all the right places but there are cheaper alternatives and at this price I was hoping for a more premium finish.

Samsung Galaxy S2
Case Mate Barely There (at least at the corners)
This case is nice, light, discreet and good quality, protects most of the phone from damage, apart from screen and the corners of the phone. I would really like it if the corners were fully covered and not just mostly, since whenever I drop phones they always end up with damage to the corners, and this case will not fully protect against such damage on phones. For this, I expect you need to get the heavy duty Case Mate. Other than that, great case and fits perfectly, I hardly even notice it is there, and to be honest the phone feels better with the case since it is so light and thin, it gives the phone a more substantial feel.
