Anyone find a soft case or holster for a phone as big as the Note? For my messenger bag, I used my Timbuk2 3way accessory case for my HTC One & Galaxy S5 but the medium size is too small for the Note. Any suggestions for a replacement? I love the Note but come summer it's going to be cumbersome to have to throw it in my bag, not to mention it could easily get scratched if it gets tossed around. I have some other pockets but either they are buried in the bag or too shallow for the Note. Thoughts?

[FOUND] Nite Ize Clip Case Cargo Wide Load
I think I found my solution. Review to come...
http://www.amazon.com/Nite-Ize-Clip.../ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
They key is that clip rotates and locks in place. I think it'll be perfect.
Verdict: Negative. The case isn't tall enough, even without a case. There's about 2 inches of velcro and only 1/2 inch reaches without a case and maybe 1/4in or less with a Spigen Neo Hybrid case. The search continues.
Hi, any update? I'm looking for the same thing, a shoulder strap pouch for my note 4. thanks!!!
I was eyeballing this case on Amazon myself, but I don't know how the back attaches; it shows a lot more of the top clip function than anything else, but it does look like there's a back strap to loop a belt through.

I thought the Ori was pretty cool and hard to pass up at $30 even if it doesn't fit the best.
I ordered the Ori and used it for a bit and could see why some of the negative comments about it not securely holding the touch pad were made. I then started thinking of possible solutions to this (I also mod computers and cars) and in about 5 minutes I had a solution. I've been testing it out for a while now and it works brilliantly.
I bought the following trim pieces:
Polyethylene Edge Trim w/ Adhesive
Neoprene Rubber Edge Trim
From this site: (did I mention I mod cars too?)
http://customcargrills.com/products.asp?cat=45
The fitment with the trim pieces is nearly perfect and the touchpad is in there solid. The trim pieces do not extend higher than the TP so the cover fits as if the trim pieces weren't even there. I just need to get time to cut/drill out holes for the head phone jack and speakers.
I had thought about posting up a teaser saying that I had a solution to give me time to get a short video put together but I know how I hate those threads so here are some of pics of the results: (using my CM9 Nexus S 4G)

I've held the case so the touch pad is pointing face down and shook it as hard as I could and the touchpad did not come out. I've already ordered another Ori for my 2nd touchpad. I'm loving how functional the ori is. I'm just wanting to get a netbook sleeve for it to cover it when traveling and such to protect stuff from the metal case.

Available for the 10.1 only so far and hearing the rumours that 8.9 is being discontinued I am not holding my breath big frown...tears almost.
I have a business idea that is revolving around the use of this tablet outdoors for mapping and utilising the 4G network.
I mean what gives? In Australia they don't even offer any other size in the 4G tablet? Its 8.9 or nothing. Surely they would make more accessories give that....ohhh but no!!!
If anyone can source me one of these tough cases I will donate! Promise! I am deadly serious now
This is about as close as I can buy AFAIK?

That is very nice for the money. Gives pretty good protection but the tab stays slim.
It looks exactly like the one I bought from amazon. Good little case, made of hard rubber, but still keeps the tab thin and light. I also have a leather portfolio cover, which is nice cause i can type easily in landscape, but the linked cover is amazing for reading books, as there is no flap in the way while reading.
i have a vipertek one i got from amazon for 20$. good quality. not a tough case but it gets the job done.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I just got one of these and its... okay.
In trying to keep it slimline, the 'long' edge has minimal overlap on the screen with the result that, in portrait mode, the case folds back where your hands are in contact with it.
Its better than nothing but not exactly what I would call rugged.
Wanna trade cases have cases u don't won't I could take them. Leave comments

This is the case I bought when I was planning on buying extended battery (as I always did,) so I made sure it is stretchable.
However, since I went with "Gold 2450" battery, which is the same size as standard battery, I never had need for this case and it accumulates dust in my basement...

Two very strong magnets hold the cover flap sealed:
(you can see where the hidden round magnets are located by the slightly "sucked-in" areas on the flap)
Easy access to USB port for charging,
also that's how far it stretches (good for extended batteries):
Easy access to headphones port:
and it has very bendable belt clip:
Belt clip is NOT a metal piece covered with leather like most are, but it is made of some sturdy plastic, with added bonus here: it actually imitate the leather look and stitches of the case.
I hate those metal clips covered with leather, because the leather starts to rip apart very soon when you actually use it on belt, and I always made sure to have just plastic clip instead.
Yours for $10 + shipping.
I think I've paid $15 + tax (maybe $19.99, am not sure now, I bought quite few things at that time).
It is brand new.
PM me if interested.
Personally I've always been a fan of having my phone in a belt pouch instead of in my pocket. With the size of the Nexus 4 and the large plates of glass on both sides I'm seriously afraid of breaking it in my pocket. To that end I've tried two different belt pouches.
First up was a trip to my local BestBuy. Their options were limited so I left with a Eddie Bauer generic large phone case.
This case is definitely built to handle phones that are much thicker than our Nexus 4. The back is also segmented which could allow the closure to adjust to accommodate phones of a range of widths.

The intent is nice, but the result is a case that feels like the phone could fall out easily as the closure is opened.
Needless to say I did return that case.
Next up was the Luxmo LU8HBK. This is advertised as a case for the Galaxy S3 which happens to be just around the same size as the Nexus 4. The fit here is MUCH better. While the closure is a bigger flap than I'm used to, the phone fits securely while still being easy to remove. It looks like this pouch will accomodate a thin case such as the Rearth Ringke. I have one on order but its still in transit.
I had a hunch the Luxmo would fit better, and at $5ea (at the time I ordered) I figured it best to get two.
Thanks OP. I have the same worry about my pocket as you. I read water meters and, as such, squat and kneel a lot.
Ordered my Nexus 4 on the 13th. Still waiting.
My family will vacation in Hawaii next month, need a good waterproof case for my new GS6, I wish I can take pics while surfing, diving, swimming, so if you have any good waterproof case, please tell me the price and link, thanks for sharing, bros.
have a try
Recently, I recieved a WATERPROOF CASE from ebay. I would like to share some experince to you!
I bought this case for use with an S6 (regular) in a humid and likely to get wet environment. It has enough room to hold the phone with a protective case and some cash and credit cards. I took it snorkeling, fully submerged it, and it took excellent photos and video. You can operate the camera mode within the case. I never got the slightest bit of moisture inside the case and I used it on several occasions. The strap works great because you can hang it around your neck like a lanyard or entwine it around your wrist several times.
Here is the item#: 121634220255
I have one for a while. it does work well under the water, You can take pics and watch movies under water.Here I post a pic for your reference.

I bought a Gelert waterproof case for £5, it's like a padded bag with a window which you use the phone through and a lanyard if you want to hang around the neck, it is what it is and form is largely out of the window in favour of function.
