Do not buy this case - Galaxy Note 4 Accessories

Just bought this ebay case from ebay seller yellowknife_cable. Not a very friendly seller BTW and I think they are doing a switch and bait. They are using another product's images but the item they actually sell are just bad, if not one of the worse copies I've seen.
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=271692429375&alt=web
If you look at the camera cut out, it is way off centered and is touching the top lens of the camera. This prevents that portion of the case to touch the back of the phone and is slight lifted off. I'm not sure who designed this but it's clear it was not test fitted and probably was based off some incorrect schematic of the note 4. The other issue is the bottom part of the phone doesn't fit well and exposes part of the phone's bezel. I've tried putting it on from the bottom first but this doesn't help. Also this case is not ultra thin as they advertise. This case is not expensive but you can find a lot more better fitting case than this so don't waste your time. And don't waste time with this seller. They want you to drive to USPS, pay for your own shipping first, then they refund and reimburse you for return shipping after they determine it's defective. For $6 dollars, who would want to go to the trouble. It's just a waste of time overall.
I sent them this image and they still think it's not defective. Really? Again, dont waste your time with this seller.

Here are more full images
Here are some images of what they posted on their listing. Clearly false advertising.

Sorry to say but even in the pictures from the "ad" the case looks like crap. When it comes to my phone I'd prefer to just buy some quality case instead of some random crap. Can find quality Spigen cases for 20 bucks.

I wouldn't use a £4 case on a £500 phone. I suppose with cases you really get what you pay for.

Right! For 15€ you could buy the original Samsung protective case. Looks great fits perfect and the protection is good i think. I've the blue and the silver one

you can get the OEM samsung one for 10 bucks on amazon i dont understand why people buy garbage off ebay from asia .. the OEM is made specifically for the phone all the holes line up and the buttons are perfect

Even though its silicone, this case actually looks as if it was made to accomodate the Desire, especially with it's protruding chin
Let us know how it fits and whether it's worth the punt
Just bought one, for £1.99 its worth a go. I'm not gonna use it all the time, just when i'm goin out
It looks ok, however i'm a little unsure as to whether or not the design will effect the pressing of the Home, Menu, Back and Search buttons as it appears the silicone covers the actual buttons.
Just my luck, I paid £3.59 and they've put the price down since!
I was worried about the buttons being covered also, but it looks well thought out:
You'll have to let us know if the trackpad is still accessible...there's a hole in the case for it but will the thickness of the silicone impede on trackpad usage.
Seen a slight scratch on the paintwork and my gel case is too thick for pouch. may have to get one. in fact for £2 may as well.
Oh snap!! Never knew they had screen protector as well. cheap ones i got are ok but are tricky to apply. Hopefully its the same quality as my ipod touch and diamond 2
That's kind of what I need but not exactly, I wish it didn't cover up the physical buttons.
If anyone finds a clear silicone case which doesn't cover the bottom front part (where the physical buttons are), please let us know!
Although, I might get this one for now because I don't like my Desire being "naked".
Cheers for the heads up, can't go wrong at £1.99
can't really complain about the price but it's a bit difficult to tell whether or not it's really chunky, or slim like the Nexus One covers that people have been getting to fit.
Ordered the 2 pack with the screen protectors
Granted it will take 2-3 weeks to get here...$10 for a deal like that is pretty good

Carbon fiber skin for the back

First of all, this thread is kinda related to this other thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966392
Which linked to the following ebay item that cost $25.
http://cgi.ebay.com/CARBON-INVISIBL...456474?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item19c2dd29da
I just ordered one from ebay at a much cheaper price.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...0733047432&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Actually, I ordered 3. It's going to be 8" x 12" so I'll have to do a little cutting. At $1.50 each, I think it's well worth the effort to cut it very carefully.
Just giving you guys a heads up to this if you want the back of your gtab to look like this.

That's a great deal, the only thing I'm afraid of is messing it up when trimming it. You can get them at amazon precut from skinomi with a screen protector for just 5th bucks more than the price of the screen protector alone. I do prefer the look of the one pictured above though
I bought mine from gotshadeonline.com and there is no cuting involved.
srry can't post the link -.-
For anybody that wants this precut... i suggest going here

Skinomi's skins come with a lifetime replacement warranty. The one from gotshadeonline don't.
i have a small dremel tool. i might be able to put it on and then use the dremel to cut it to fit.

You know why it's a pleasure to deal with them? Because it costs $15.00 + shipping.

a dremel? its made out of 3M paper, a blade should be fine, dremel might be overkill
i was mainly thinking about the rounded corners

OEM HTC Hard Shell Cases for under $10

I was looking for the HTC metallic cases online, and found them on many sites for $19.95, which I didn't want to pay after seeing some posts on here saying the clips wore down. I found them on htcpedia.com for $8.99 for metallic, and $9.99 for the clear and black ones.
Links:

http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-hard-shell-cases-1.html
I've never purchased from them but you can use Paypal and there are customer reviews on the products so I gave it a shot. Just thought I'd share in case anyone else was interested!
What do you mean by metallic? are they metal or metal apearance with a plastic build..
That's just what HTC calls them, I don't know. Look at the pics?
Does metallic mean they're like my case? Mine looks plastic but the inside of it is metal, something about the signal, I don't know for sure.
Hmmm, if someone does decide to order, would like to hear a review on the quality.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Search this forum. There previous posts about it. Also a user from here made a YouTube video about the black one. Just search for it on there.
Also ime metallic refers to color and not material.
Here, I got the links for you.

Black/clear: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTpyMfm_WHM & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nR-OS12ileM&feature=related
I have the clear case. Bought it at my local T-Mobile store for $9.99. It has a very snug fit but looks amazing as it lets the sexinesss of the G2 show. The case has the stand which allows the phone to sit up on its own in landscape or portrait. Be careful pulling case off the back of the phone. Very tight and if not careful will scratch phone.

I think you're mistaken - these HTC cases don't have kickstands. I think Body Glove or someone made that one.
Anyway, just a quick review - my case got here in 2 days with Fed Ex (NY to IL), I'd definitely buy from that website again. The case made the phone seem bulky at first but after the first day I was used to it, and it doesn't seem odd at all anymore. I like the finish a lot. I would recommend these cases, especially since they're made by HTC and that gives them the best fit possible.

They are great, but they really get in the way when typing on the top row of keys.

[Q] Just broke my DHD screen :(

What a bummer,
I was walking n listening to music on my DHD as my front panel case fell and took the phone along with it
my DHD is still functioning but I need to replace the glass.

descent one. any suggestions?

Im using Momax TPU/ABS case. Avaliable on Ebay. its quite pricy for a TPU case but the quality is really good, excellent product, dropped the phone in some pretty rough places and protected it quite well. It is about 15~20USD. IMO, worth it. another case I also use is the CaseMate Barely There, it is a thin case but not as protective. I did a review which you have have a look here.

after smashing my screen the other month, I wanted to make sure I got a decent case, got the otterbox commuter, it is very good. I have dropped my phone once since I got the case and there wasnt a mark scratch on it.
I broke my Otterbox two times :-(
It is too expensive an not very stabil...

I have one too. So far so good, though I didn't use the screen protector that came with it.
Is there a docking cradle that works with this case? I bought the one recommended by Samsung (EDD-D200BEGSTD) but it doesn't fit at all. There's a ridge in front of the USB connector that pushes up against the keyboard. I don't think it would fit even with the case off...
you mind posting links to cases that fit well?
i didn't get a case for the new cell so far since i always had trouble with them falling off when sliding the keyboard in and out after a while or didn't really fitting at all.
but if there's one that you ppl could recommend... my new electronic toy could use a lil extra protection
Case/cover.
I'm trying to find that case in UK as from us it will be about £20 !
Does anyone know where to buy it in UK or any online site but cheaper.
If not I will go for it as need to protect my precious (still waiting to be delivered).
Can anybody post some photos of that case as even on google pictures they not show it cover fully unit.
Or maybe someone have any alternative?
Regards
Mac
UPDATE
I just bought SA-321
http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...alpro-hard-shell-case-with-silicone-core.html
And even found discount code 20% less !
So I am happy now, no need to buy screen protector even.
Looks pretty good honestly, I may get one of those feather cases.
Here some pictures:

(If you want to buy one there, you may want to use the coupon code "inc20" - saves you 20%.) (expired)
Just ordered the SA-321 for my wife's Relay. Btw, the coupon code no longer is active.
I have just received an SA-321 case. It's of very good quality and I like the rubbery-but-not-too-much feeling of it. Compared to the SA-316, it covers the power and volume buttons. It makes the power button a lot easier to press and the slide-out mechanism feels somewhat more solid.
I like it a lot.
Agree. Though a bit pricey, my wife fell in love with it instantly. Great feel, good protection, and looks great too.:good:
