samsung case
Will try to post some pics when I'm not on my job!
This is a very quality leather case made in France, it will set you back
About $100.00 us dollars which includes shipping. I bought a knock off case like it, from amazon for $20.00 and it is mickey mouse compared to the noreve case. I know it is expensive but if your like me, I've got to have good quality!
Not exactly sure how to insert pics but if someone can help me out I will do so!
Well apparently you have to have 8 post before you can add a link- just Google this and it should be the first site that pops up! Samsung galaxy tab 8.9 noreve case.

Thanks that is awesome! And apparently it looks like it is on sale for the holidays! Delivery time for me was about 2 weeks, but the first one that they sent got lost in shipping and when they sent the second one it took about 4 days.

Would Samsung Note 2 10.1 cases fit the infinity?

like this one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Ultra-S...2117772779287725249&pid=100010&prg=1004&rk=5&

no it wouldnt...my dad just bought the note and its much fatter and curvy than the transformer, so no it would not fit

They have different proportions - Samsung is "lower" but wider than TF700. And a bit thicker. I compared them in a shop while looking for TF700 case.

Yah same here but I bought this one from Amazon
http://www.amazon.ca/Asuxtek®-Trans...6TOY/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1349619118&sr=8-9
Waiting for it to arrive

Accidentally ordered Samsung tab 2 10 case for my Infinty. If you use force real hard, it would go in there, look very bad and block some of the plugins.
And just when I was going to write some bad reviews to Amazon I double checked that what it was I actually ordered and realized that made some classical mistake there.
Good one of my friends have that tablet so didn't go to waste.

araree amy case?

Anybody got the araree amy case? Looks amazing but never heard of them before. Let me know if anybody has the case or have ever had an araree case and how the quality is. Thanks!

nice looking cases but they come from Korea so probably almost two weeks with the shipping

I wouldn't mind the 2 weeks shipping as long as the case is worth it. I love the design but don't want to risk it. I might just get the spigen neo hybrid instead if nobody has any info about the brand or case.

Do a quick search and you would find that this is a quality case brand. They made cases for the s3 and iphone as well.
Most korean cases have really good quality even mercury which is the budget korean case option.
I will be getting one of these soon (red/black) version. If you don't mind waiting 2-4 weeks for me to come back with a review... hang on tight.

Lol I dont think I can wait that long for a review but thank u. U def boosted my confidence. I might just take the leap n get it. I love the red n black one as well. Appreciate it!

i want one of these cases too. i'm afraid by the time it arrives, the galaxy s5 will be out.
by the way, they're available at casefanatic also:

Korean Post is usually fantastic in their delivery speeds.
Anyway, S5 won't be out so soon, not since they announced plans for at "S4s" with the S800 processor.

I did a quick search on araree but couldnt find too many reviews, in english at least.. I do see that they made cases for the galaxy and iphone series in the past but I dont know if that can be used as a testimate to the quality of the galaxy s4 cases.

Thanks !!

Hello, I'm interested in the Amy case, but because of the inconvenience of having it shipped from Korea I would like to see some more pictures of it before buying, if possible of the Moulin Rouge and Chic Black versions. Thanks.

Finally gave in and ordered one of these for my girlfriend and myself last week. I guess I will find out who nice they are once they arrive. They shipped out about a week ago but it says it could take up till the beginning of September to arrive unfortunately.

Anyine fond of the tech 22 d30 cases?

Hope you can post some impressions and pictures! I'm interested in buying this case off eBay, but I am curious on what it feels like before committing.

I've had one for about 3 weeks now and have absolutely loved it.
I'll post pictures when I can tomorrow. I have the teal/pink one.

What does it feel like in the hand? Is it like a matte soft touch finish? Does the case add much thickness to the device?

just bit and purchased the red/black one for 47$ on ebay via EMS shipping, link here for those interested ($31 total for free shipping). I should have it by next Weds. This is probably the prettiest case I've seen for the s4.

a tad bit of thickness. But nothing like a commuter or anything from otterbox. It's still pretty thin. The back plastic piece had a pretty smooth feel to it, but still provides a nice grip. the rubber main piece (As I call it) has more of a matte feel to it if you will imo. Provides good grip. Still waiting to be able to get pics sowy. Should have them in the morning.

So my cases showed up yesterday. Took 10 days from when they were updated saying shipped on ebay. The quality is excellent as stated earlier. My one question will be depending on how the back plastic is colored how well will it hold up to scratches. Almost feels like a painted on finish instead of a piece of plastic that is died all the way through. Thickness wise it is a hair thicker than my Spigen Neo Hybrid case. I took a ton of pictures of my girlfriends pink and teal one and my red and white one. I just need to get them posted up.

[Q] Galaxy Note 3 leather back housing for Galaxy S4

Do you know any place that is selling a back housing for the S4, that looks like the back of the note 3?

You asking a product that non existent. Most of those manufacturers even don't know how it feels and most of them no ideas like this. Maybe in future, it really look possible because the same camera & led positions on back of S4

I've been looking for back plate replacements lately as well. I specifically want a leather one.
I found this one on Amazon, but I want white: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...veASIN=B00CILRQO2&linkCode=shr&tag=guttcom-20

hmm alright, thanks!

There's one here, not real leather though.

Patiently waiting for some company to make an S4 version of the stitched Note3 back cover... :crying:
I've had this 'faux leather/chrome trim' case for a month; and it's a bit better than the black plastic version someone posted above (had that one too) - ebay search: "Silver Frame Black PU Leather Battery Door Back Cover Case For Galaxy S4 i9500"

yeah, this would be nice :good:

The note 3 has been out for a while now. Anyone seen any backs for the S4?

http://www.fonearena.com/blog/94893...-s4-mini-go-black-with-faux-leather-back.html

I don't really care if it looks identical to the official one, I just want a backplate with a better grip (without having to resort to cases.) So far I've only been able to find cheap Chinese/Taiwanese crap where the "leather" sticker starts to peel off in a week. I would've thought that Samsung releasing "faux-leather" back on Note 3 would be a kick in 3rd-party accessory market.

I haven't actually purchased any, but reviews on Amazon (1 and 2 star ones) usually tell you what to not buy.

I have found a marketplace that sells them and have ordered one direct from S. Korea. Keep your eyes on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2646803&page=5
I self-appointed myself as the guinea pig in the purchase after I found a seller, so I'm asking that no one else order one until I can confirm that it is, indeed, the real deal. I estimate that I should have the back plate by, at the latest, mid next week due to EMS shipping and by it going through customs.

(Updated) Genuine Samsung Clear Cover Note 9 Transparent

Update :
Go to page 3, i included some photos + black silicone case
Samsung Clear Cover Note 9 Transparent
FYI..
Actually samsung did it with Note9, found it by luck in one of our local online stores here in Dubai. I don't think its available on Amazon anywhere (US, UK & CANADA) YETTTT...
Sharing it here so if others are interested, they can keep an open eye around waiting for it.
This is mostly a plastic snap on case, not a tpu.
Ordered it, & i didn't receive it yet, will update this upon receiving it. If any is interested.
The local online store doesn't ship internationally, so am not sharing it here.

I want this. Keep me updated OP

I’m really looking forward to this case. It is the only one of the official cases that appears to be out of stock everywhere. I had this hard case for my Note 8 and even though it doesn’t seem to offer that much protection it provides a perfect grip and make the withd of the phone ideal to not slip at all from the hand.

Doesnt it come with the phone?

What comes with the phone is a tpu cover, this one is hard plastic with a very thin profile and the best grip..

My note 8 came with the hard plastic case like that which you described.

I've bought it today. It looks very nice and slim. Of course it fits like glove. It has a grippy feeling which is good for me. And it is soft not a hard case. I'm glad I've bought it Hope it does not turn to yellow soon.

Could you please upload some pictures? I wonder if it is the same case that came in the box ?

Looks like they tinted it slightly blue/gray which should reduce the yellowing effect.

I want the hard plastic case like they had for the Note 8. Felt like you didnt even have a case on it. Oh well.

I bought this generic one on 8/15, it delivered today:
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/292656916441
Real nice fit, ultra slim profile & no rainbow effect.
FWIW, it does not have the raised corners (or any raised edges) like the PC OEM Case for the Note 8.
Protection is as minimal as it gets, top & bottom are fully exposed, oversized cutouts for the buttons.
IMHO, perfect......
@Semantics
EDIT:
Seems the selller has updated/substituted what I purchased.
The one in the link is not what I have,SMH,sorry about that........
@Semantics
EDIT #2
Here's one that closely resembles what I ordered:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Galaxy-Not...-Cover-Clear/163216970699?hash=item26007d53cb
It has a bit more coverage,but,the buttons are still cut out,vs the protuding button coverage on most cases.
Yeah,a bit pricier than the one I originally linked,but,it's cheaper than the OEM Samsung one & actually available now.
