SGP Leather Case Valencia Swarovski ?

Premium case, but looks reallllllllllly good(atleast I think so)
Anyone have any first hand experience with this? I'm in the market for a premium case.
I'm not allowed to post any outside links due to my low post count but a simple google search will go a long way if you're interested in how this case looks.

I understand, however I always put my reviews for the community and if the mods decide to merge or close the thread there is not a problem. When a thread so big as the original one happens..then it gets clogged and some valuable info like a hands on demonstration gets lots easly.

congrats, they added your video to the cruzerlite website! lol
ps, anyone else notice in the image on cruzerlite website it has tpu material between the flash and the camera lense, but in the video review it just has one big opening?

Charging case!

I was watching a Testes video on YouTube and they were talking about a website called shapeways. I was interested and decided to see if anybody on there was making stuff for the Nexus 4, and they are! Check it out! http://www.shapeways.com/model/937654/nexus-4-5000mah-charger.html?li=productBox-search

this would be cool, but damn does that thing look ugly! looks cheaply made for $100.

5000mah is way too overkill for a extended battery case, that thing looks like a paving brick and probably weight as much. 1500 to 2500mah would be more than enough to keep size and price down.

Holy guacamole that's big.

Wow that is one big case. The ugly factor will keep me away from this thing.

Testing out the new screen protector (It blows)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sb5Fc0ez-xU
My reviews Watch the end result...
Was cheap, and not so good..
Don't forget to thanks for the review

I made a lil review about how to apply and how the cheap ones look. Also it block the sensors.

I'll make a review of the atFolix ones that are arriving soon, those don't ''glitter'' .. i hope..

You applied it wrong.

Indeed, dry application means....dry application

BTW, I've tested the 3M screen protector, and it did not cover the whole front bezel... very disappointed.

I know I applied it wrong, I know it was meant to be dry application but I prefer to do it like this cause I can still move it.. I'm more used to it like this...
No need totcall me idiot or whatsoever..

To move a dry screen protector, apply it using two 'handles' made of tape. Lift it and move it to your heart's content. Or use the hinge method.
I'm not saying the protector you got is any good, we might never know. But your review is kind of pointless. It's like painting a car with a paint roller because you're used to painting ceilings, then saying the paint sucks because your car looks like **** now.

oh well, i hopes it serves for anyone thinking bout buying a crappy screenprotector, this points out why you shouldn't buy it maybe...

When you say something like "don't forget to thank..." you can be sure I won't do it...

I think everyone is being a little harsh on the OP. Maybe some constructive criticism would be better?

But it really doesn't point out why you shouldn't buy it. We don't even know that it's crappy since your conclusion is based on improper use.

'You're doing it wrong' isn't very harsh. OP doesn't help the situation when he says 'I know I'm doing it wrong, that's why this thing sucks.' Definitely the wrong foot all around.

OP, has the new one arrived yet?

No, only a new case, already made the review of it! I though it was the atFolix in the video so I made a huge fail wich made it a bit funny

It was not because I applied it wrong that it sucks right? What's the matter with me applying it in a other way? It didn't **** up the screen protector nor made it worse -.-

Modified belt pouch Note 8.0

Bought this leather pouch from eBay for Galaxy Tab 7.7 long ago, when I use to have 7.7. Yesterday when I received my Galaxy Note 8.0, I suddenly remembered about this old pouch. I am good in keeping stuff safe even if I am not using it. I found it after a little struggle, and straight took it to cobbler to modify it, I asked him to stich a little piece of additional Leather so my belt can go in it. It worked, a little weird, but innovative and easy to carry believe me.

Doesnt look great, but I really just need functionality. How does it feel resting on your belt? Do u think it feel different if it was horizontal?
I really wanna do this, but its borderline acceptable. I have many bankers, reporters etc ask me about my note (s), so I am really an ambassador, need to look sharp!

Believe me it feels pleasent and after a while peoples starts acc3pting it. Well in my case i know at least 4 of the guys who use to make fun in the begining about this, has finally started usin it.
Well using horizintally is not a great idea, i tried its doesnt look good, keep it vertical and also pls dont stich the belt clipping leather exact in the middle of the poch, atleast leave 2 quarter of the pouch below the belt. Check the image

I've been using a leg bag:
and a military thigh bag:
to to carry the Note 8 inside a personalized hidden book compartment:
covered with a Starbucks planner hardened case:
I use my Note 2 as my main communications device and take out my Note 8 when I need a bigger screen to sketch or read with.
I talk about this more in the Hidden Note 8 discussion on the accessories section.

The idea to cut out the pages of a notebook is brilliant. That is seriously my single favorite case I have seen thus far. Do you use any velcro or anything like that to keep the Note from sliding out, or to keep the cover in place or any other unforeseen travesty that I cannot think of currently?

The planner cover has elastic strings along its interior vertical spine. You slide the back cover of the "notebook" to be attached to the planner cover.
Just in luck that the planner cover is exact and I managed to find a notebook that was only 5mm taller than the Note 8, with a width of 10mm wider. I'm waiting on this heavy casing to integrate to a new hiding cover design in working on:
Here's a review of it:
http://galaxynote8accessories.com/poetic-revolution-for-galaxy-note-8/
Still waiting for it in local market.
I found the perfect cover and plan to bond paper into a book for it.
I have seen a lot of nice folio covers for the Note 8, but I use what I made as this is more secure as it's inconspicuous.

Not sure about this. Looks heavy and uncomfortable. Is it secure and comfortable if you need to run?
