I'm looking to buy something like a silicone case for my galaxy tab plus. I'd like to pick it up at best buy or something because I am impatient in waiting for ordering online. It looks like retailers don't really have any Tab Plus accessories anymore. I looked at the Tab 2 and it looks like it's basically the same body.. Would it be possible to use a Tab 2 case on my Tab Plus?
I just received my Roocase which Amazon advertises for both the Tab Plus and the Tab 2. The actual packaging on the case says it's for the Tab 2. It works wonderfully for me, everything's accessible and looks great. I think any accessory for the Tab 2 should also fit a Tab Plus.

You probably found one by now, but I would suggest going on ebay and dealextreme just the same, you can get all kinds of cases for all occasions, for as little as $4-5 shipped.
I got a case for my GTP6210 from Amazon, it's the Bobj rugged case for 7-inch Galaxy tabs, very high quality recommended case.
Does anyone know if the screen protector of Tab 2 or Tab3 fits in Tab Plus?

I think you will have a hole where the home button would be on the Tab 3 if you used its screen protectors. Also the Tab 2's will fit if it's a 3g model, the wifi only tab2's protectors lack the earpiece speaker cutout.
If you can wait ~4 weeks, you can try one of these:

The tab 2 case fits perfectly without interfering with any of the controls, The only difference is that your flash for the back camera will be covered on the back - thank God for Dremmel!

The problem is that galaxy tab 2 doesn't have a hole for your camera flash. But everything will work fine.
Btw, I just bought galaxy tab plus case/cover from Ebay... I received mine after 2 weeks.

This is a question about "topical" accessories for the Galaxy Tab 8.9 series of tablets.
I personally have the SGH-i957 from AT&T and I know that the processor is different than other models, so the rooting methods, kernel, roms, etc. are all different. Obviously the screen sizes are the same, but how about the device "body" size as far as thickness and corner roundness/squareness? Are the cases and screen protectors universally compatible with each other or are they all different sizes too?

As far as I know it is the same. I bought a case designed for the old tab 8.9 and it works fine.
Ok...thanks. I am still trying to keep it all strait so that I don't get/do the wrong thing for the wrong device.
Ended up going back to AT&T to see what they had. I bought the Belkin Verve Folio Stand case and the BodyGuardz screen protector.
The case is very nice and the tablet fits snug inside. There are several viewing angles available depending on your relationship to the tablet. The think I like about this one too is that it is just a smooth vinyl and not "pleather". I really dislike things that try to look like leather but are not! =)
BodyGuardz screen went on pretty easily...much easier than say a Zagg InvisibleShield and there were no airbubbles, dust particles, visible figerprints, etc. after placing it on the screen. Also I didn't have to wait for it to dry or set and put it right into its case afterwards. It is also very smooth to the touch like the stock gorilla glass screen with no orange peel visible at all.
Experienced good on arm band on Galaxy S3 and yet have no found arm band for Galaxy S4, if some one get already a good one for share... ?
I'm sure that if you go look for SGS3 accessories you'll find plenty. They'll fit your phone as good as any SGS4 accessory, of that sort, would.
Arkon's Galaxy S3 armband does fit the GS4. $18.
http://www.arkon.com/Galaxy S III/galaxy-s-3-armband.html
Will the Arkon work with a case? I got the Belkin slim-fit armband and my S4 won't fit in it with the case on. This is my first Galaxy so haven't had to get an arm band this big before.
search amazon.com
I ordered mine on there. They are less than $10 shipped. Works and does exactly what it says it does.
Only gripe i have is that the 'back' and 'menu' buttons are covered, but i dont need it when its strapped to my arm and im listening to music.
My wife has an S3, the Belkin Slim fits the S4... I like it a lot, going to buy my own soon.

Nice case, looks quite similar to the spigen case, is there any youtube videos of S6 cases that anyone could find? It would be interesting to see how it pairs up next to the Samsung S5 and see what sort of changes have been made.

Hi Friends, I will recommed you iVoler Dot View Case for Samsung Galaxy s6, Ihave bought a Dot View Case for my s5. It's simple looking when it arrives - just a soft plastic cover with holes in the front. It comes with instructions and a code to install an app on your phone that creates the dot matrix illusion on the cover. The app can be a little finicky sometimes (sometimes it will shut off on it's own and I had the screen malfunction once, but restarting my phone fixed it and I haven't had that issue yet again). DO NOT LOSE YOUR APP'S SERIAL NUMBER. Sometimes the app logs you out and you need the serial number to log back in.
I haven't gotten the weather display to work, but mine does display the time, received text messages and incoming or missed calls. The box warns that the controls may not work with thicker screen protectors; I have a shatterproof glass screen protector so I can't answer the phone without opening the top flap. I suspect with a normal screen protector this wouldn't be an issue.
The case itself is pretty nice. I got the pink and I like the color. The back of the case actually replaces the back piece of your phone and it does not have waterproofing so the water resistance of the S5 will not work with this case. It is not a hefty case and will not protect your phone if you drop it. All and all, for the price, I am pretty happy with this and I think it works pretty well.

How's the protection for your S4 doing so far? Have you dropped it (and survived) before?
I was looking into the neo hybrid but I ended up getting the tough armor. I have it for my LG G2, and while it's slightly bulky, I've dropped it several times and it's survived without any noticeable damage.

I just ordered SGS6E+ for replacing my current phone, however, it was hard to find a descent case for this. I usually do not prefer to use a case, however, with the glass back and the edge display, I'm not just ready yet to take that kind of risk (specially with my history of dropping phones several times a day). Usually I go with the highest rated cases on amazon, however, since the release of the phone is due on 21st, none of the accessories are reviewed yet. Based on Galaxy S6 Edge case reviews, I finally selected the following case and screenguard:-
Spigen Neo Hybrid Carbon Case for Galaxy S6 Edge+ (Plus)
ArmorSuit MilitaryShield - Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+
Just a word of advice, do not buy any dry application screen protectors for your edge phones, the glue usually don't last towards the edge.
I'm really excited to know what other cases are you guys planning to buy or already bought for your edge+.:cyclops:
I ordered the same case. Should be here monday along with the phone. Didn't see any glass screen protectors yet. Which i have used on my last several phones and have yet to break one.

You can't really apply any tempered glass protectors anymore, not on edge display of Edge+ and 2.5D display of Note 5. You will get some, but those won't cover your entire screen (not till edges) and that way looks really odd. That's why I mentioned earlier that we need to get a wet application protector (if its edge+). Google on this for more info. Let us know if you find something useful about it.
I hadn't even looked up the issue of the glass protection not fitting.

I just orded the arozell crystal clear series: http://www.amztk.com/gs6epcc
Tried the sgp clear case on my s3 and a little sorry for its thin and loose design,anyway, I'm also like to keep the original fashion instead of other entry class case to make my s6 edge+ been a cheap one. It's also less than $10.00 and not so worried on the cost....

I was watching Youtube case reviews for the S6 Edge while I was waiting for my Plus to arrive.. One guy reviewed like 6 or 7 cases, testing the wireless charging for each one as he swapped them out and they worked.. At least for the cases he reviewed.. (and the S6 Edge non plus)

Check the reviews of Spigen cases for S6 and S6 Edge. They do work with Samsung and other QI based charger. However, few of them have reported that PMA pads are having trouble with any cases attached. I would suggest buy a Samsung Fast Wireless Charger / Samsung (Regular) Wireless Charger (both are QI) and works well with most of the cases. I got mine free with Edge+ @ BestBuy. :laugh:
Wow, it's cool. I think finaly suitable for Galaxy S6 Plus.

Although I've already bought one ArmorSuit and Skinomi (since they were available @ $0.95 with promo code), I still wanna put a screen guard right away at BestBuy. However, usually BestBuy sells the screen protectors at a very high price (almost 2 - 3 times of Amazon Price). If its available under $15, I'll get one, otherwise I'll see right then and there...
Picked up the SM-P580 for my 6 year old this past week.. Curious to see what case everyone likes or is using with theirs -- I picked up a relatively cheap ProCase off of Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Gala...id=1511708748&sr=8-7&keywords=sm-p580+procase and it is just ok --- Since this Tablet has been around for quite awhile was hoping to get some thoughts on what you guys liked.. Thanks..
Cases are a hit or miss with the Galaxy Tab A 10.1 with S Pen (P580) and without S Pen (T580). There are a limit amount of accessories for these models.
You probably want a Mignova Heavy Duty Hybrid Protective Case with Build In Kickstand, since you're letting your kid use your tablet: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06Y15M2VP/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It will help you reduce the damage if he or she drops it. Don't rely on the included screen protector because its garbage. There are identical ones with different brand name, but they are all the same. All made in China. Some are cheaper while others are more expensive so make sure you pick the cheapest price and it's designed for the one with the S pen.
Also, the model without the S Pen (T580) is a smaller tablet. They aren't the same size as the model with the S Pen (P580).
Infiland Galaxy Tab A 10.1 with S Pen Case, Smart PU Leather 360 Degrees Rotating Stand Case Cover for Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 with S pen P580:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M65L2XX/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
This one is okay, but the 360 degree rotating stand is flimsy. It only stays in place if you just watch a video on your tablet. If you plan to use it while its in vertical or horizontal mode, it often falls down.
ProCase Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 Case without S Pen
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01FVLUDAO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
If I had this case for the one with a S Pen, the screen flaps are annoying and cover a small portion of the screen in all directions. For a tablet without the S Pen, it's manageable. Good build quality. Thicker case than Infiland leather case. You got to take the tablet out to access your mSD card.
Samsung Book Cover for Tab A 10.1” with S Pen, Black or White
https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/m...tab-a-10-1--with-s-pen--black-ef-bp580pbeguj/
Right now, it's 50% off for $25 but normally for $50. If you missed the sale, you can get cheaper ones on Ebay as used or open-box.
Out of all the cases I have including the Pro Case for the T580, the Samsung Book Cover is the best one for the Tab A 10.1” with S Pen (P580). The only con aside from drop protection is that you can't use it in vertical mode because the magnets only hold the tablet in two horizontal angles. Easy to take off and put the book cover on. Easy access to your micro-SD card slot. No raised screen case hinge to interfere with my hand when I'm writing on it. The magnets are strong and hold in place with I use it.
I was thinking of getting a keyboard case, but I discovered there's no official Samsung Keyboard case. There are 3rd party Chinese manufacturer keyboard cases, but they are a hit-or-miss too with build quality and user experience.
Thanks for all the info Baja --good stuff..
I just got this one for my SM-T580 and it fits great.
It's not cheap, but it's worth a bit of extra cash.
I did take the screen protector out because I don't like them, but otherwise it's a great case.
