RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!!
Ahem.. Sorry. I would go for the Aegis case. It's covering everything and looks more protective to me. Good luck!

I have the Aegis case, the only thing TRIDENT need is to revise is the screen protector that comes with it, is to make a cutout for the earpiece to fit the GT-N5100. Otherwise, case is highly recommended.

I have the kraken for my S3 and love it. It adds a lot of bulk. If you use your note in an active situation or work in a physical job and use it in the field, I would get it. If you are an office worker or generally good with your fragile gadgets then go with some thing like a folio cover.

I have Kraken for my Htc one x and I love it ..But for note it has a big hole for the attachment thats why I am thinking

I got this case when I got the 8 with my S4 from at&t combo sale:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00E0EY9P4/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1375461871&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX110_SY19
It's a great case granted you don't have to take pics but that's what the S4 is for. Very protective from all side and I'm sure you can find it chapter elsewhere. The rep at the sore hooked it up so I got this case and the one for the S4 for free.

Hey guys trident has some special sale for summer .35% off on all ur purchases ..
Use summer13
So Kraken case comes around 45.47$
and
Aegis around 29.22 $
I have ordered Kraken case...Once I get it I will give review

Trident Kraken Case review:
I have kraken case for htc one x and I am very happy with it but samsung note 8 case is the worst kraken case ..Build quality is very poor,Screen protector has small dots which make it rough when using the screen,ports cutouts are very lose,infrared port is not covered and finally speaker cutouts are towards upwards which I didn't expect.
.
Tablet holder:
Its made up of poor quality .While rotating it feels like its gonna break ..
Totally disappointed returning the product and I am back to poetic revolution case

Leather wallet case for Samsung Galaxy S4

Does anyone have any recommendations for a leather wallet style case for a S4? Please share your experience with us.

I have the Tuff-Luv wallet case. I had this type with my S3 mini and got one for my wife's 4S.
Room for 3 credit cards and an opening for a few notes. Good quality leather. The holes are in the right places and the camera is not obscured.
TBH the crease on the back which acts as a stand spoils the look somewhat.
At £45 the price is way too high, however, Tuff-Luv place them on eBay.co.uk regularly.
I picked up each of the 3 I have purchased for £20 delivered, which is reasonable.
LINK

It looks very high quality. How functional is it to talk on your phone with the case on it? I agree about the crease. Thanks for the input.

Not a problem, I just fold it back on itself and hold it in one hand.

You can go for the Spigen Slim Wallet. That is the one I have. It can hold about 2 cards, but the leather is very nice and not cheap. The case is not only a wallet, but also a stand were you can comfortably watch videos on. http://www.spigen.com/brands/samsung/galaxy/galaxy-s4/galaxy-s4-case-slim-wallet.html Link is here. They also have a Leather Wallet Case Snap. This can hold multiple cards and cash.

I have the Incipio Watson style (http://www.incipio.com/back-to-scho...s instructed scratched my screen. do not buy.

No recommendations for a leather wallet style case but s-line has some serious cases

Wow, sorry but in my opinion that case is hideous! It looks extremely bulky. Will definitely protect the case but it's just too bulky for my liking.
I really dislike those magnetic flaps which just seem to flap around and get in the way. Take a look at this one, not sure if its available worldwide though which is a bit of a bummer!

If I continue to carry a "wallet" I need to hold two cards drivers license and credit card.
The case you show looks nice for one card. Thank you

[Q] Clip on holster case?

The EVO 3d I'm using as a temp while I wait for my 4 is small enough to comfortably put in my pocket. My Note 2 was not. and the 4 is bigger...
I have been a fan of the Seido Surface cases in the past but the one weak point is the belt clip.
I've broken so many of them that it's ridiculous. I went through 4 holsters in 2 years on my Note 2 alone.
And I do not even want to add up the holsters on prior phones..
I need something metal that can take a small bump. I'd like a semi thin case like the surface but the holster has to be strong.
Can anyone recommend a sturdy clip on holster case?

Have you thought of moving to a leather holster case? I was in the same boat until I went to a leather combo with a metal clip.

I have tried some holster cases but they were either to clumsy to retrieve and store from quickly , or the clips were terrible like the rest.
Since I have never owned an Otter box I cant speak factually, but they have always seemed so bulky and the poly clip looks the same as the rest. Are the clips actually more durable compared to say the Seido clips?

There pretty much the same I've broke a few Otterbox's also….. Check out Turtleback Holster Leather Case fits Samsung Galaxy Note 3 without a Protective Case, interior fits 5 7/8" X 3 1/4" X 3/4" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I9LM2VW/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_zlcnub0RDDPV2

Although they're not yet released Seidio has several models available w/ holster.
http://www.seidioonline.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-4-s/9431.htm

I love the Seidio case/holster combos! (Specifically the Surface with Holster) My past two phones, however, have been the slip case/holster combo sold in the Verizon store for around $24.95. The reason I went with those is two-fold: It was available right away when I purchased the phone, and it is just slim and protective enough that it doesn't make my large phone into a gargantuan phone.

My Note2 in either an otterbox defender or trident aegis case lives in one of these. It's quite adjustable. Normally I have the retention strap removed unless I know I'm going to be in odd locations and I think it may fall out, though I'd have to be upside down for that to happen, but I've found myself in that position for work sometimes... I've broken every plastic clip from three different vendors, so this was the strongest holster I could find. Pretty sure I'll break before it does.

What is the lanyard/cord for at the top? It looks easily removable but wondering what purpose it serves.

These are actually made for two way radios like military and police carry, so the strap is to keep it in place.

Thanks for this:good: been looking for something like this, I ended up buying this cheapo one for about 6 bucks on ebay for the time being that works pretty well but the case looks ugly.

That link doesn't state it's for a Note 4 but the fact that it's a preorder leads me to believe it is although when you navigate to the Note 4 page on Seidio's website almost everything states "under development".
http://www.seidioonline.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-4-s/9431.htm
Other thing is Best Buy sells a comparable case made for them by Seidio for $20 less but they don't have them in stock yet. BB calls it a Platinum Series.

It does say for the note 4 in the description if you scroll down a bit.

Yes, I missed that. Since it's not on the Note 4 page do you know if they have a release date for the Convert Combo somewhere on their website?

I have no idea. Maybe someone can give them a call or shoot over a email asking about the convert cases for the note. I'm more into slim type cases because I think it just looks more clean and I don't like the extra bulk, I usually don't drop my phones.

I called them last week and they said there was no ETA for the Convert combo. I noticed the Surface has the release date on Seidio's Note 4 webpage and I look at it daily so I'm hoping the Convert combo gets a release date soon.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MP3OWVI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3RZJ9YYQ3ASDK
If it doesn't I'm going to order the above case as it's the only one I could find with covers for the mini USB, S Pen & headphone ports with a holster but it doesn't have a kickstand. Amazon shows an ETA of 10-27 in my shopping cart so I'm holding off ordering it hoping the Seidio will become available in that time frame.
Now the other problem with the Seidio is apparently no one offers a tempered glass screen protector that covers the flat portion of the screen without the halo effect.

I was looking at the supcase also but it's the bulk that bugs me.. The note is already a big phone... I'll be using this ebay case plus clip until I get a seidio.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Black-B.../371164711314?ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:U:US:1120
Not really a bad case... Just needed a belt clip for my note cuz I carry 2 phones, cigarettes, lighter, Chapstick, keys and wallet on me all the time lol. The only flaw with the ebay one is that it's not very pretty, but I'll choose that over a bulky case any day.

I've got to get something soon as I'm deathly afraid of dropping this expensive phone and damaging it. Actually I wouldn't have minded waiting another month or so to get the phone so I could have had the case beforehand but the $200 trade in deal was too good to pass up. A case with button covers is much easier for me to use too as I'm always accidentally touching the side buttons and I can grip the phone better.

Speck Candyshell Grip for Note 4 Video Review - works with Verizon

Here's my video review of the Speck Candyshell Grip Case for the Samsung Galaxy Note 4. I was pleasantly surprised by this case and it has become one of my favorite cases for the Note. It also has a wider cutout for note 4s with different microphone placements.

Another great review, I just can't see myself spending $40 bucks for a non-holstered case.
I wish Verus's Note 4 cases were through Amazon/Prime so I can try one out along with the Neo Hybrid.
Really appreciate the case reviews, you saved me a lot of time and frustration man.

Nice, please do a video on the Otterbox Symmetry case for the Note 4.

Thanks and not sure what you mean about not being through Amazon/Prime. Verus' cases for the Note 4 are available on Amazon. Do you mean you can't get it because it's not available for prime shipping?

Yeah, they're not sold through Amazon at this time.
It's technically listed through the third party seller system even though it's Verus - See here: Galaxy Note 4 Case, Verus [Heavy Drop Protection] Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Case [Thor][Charcoal Black] Extra Slim Fit Dual Layer Hard Case - AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, International, and Unlocked - Case for Samsung Galaxy Note IV SM-N910S Late 2014 Model
So if there's an issue or I need to return it, I have to go through Verus instead of Amazon. I don't mind paying the shipping, but I feel better going through Amazon instead of the third party vendor method.
Amazon covers my return shipping and picks it up at my door if I return something as opposed to having to do all that myself when dealing with a third party vendor.

The fit is pretty tight. It's not hard but I noticed that it is the hardest case to take off out of all the ones I've bought. I noticed that it has gotten easier after the first removal and installation so it might become easier to remove as time passes. Hope this helps.

I've always like the look of the candyshells but the glossy polycarbonate scratches too easily. It looks like an old case within days.

I have the black speck case, problem is, with the case on, I can't fit the Note 4 into ANY leather belt holster that I own. Without the case, I have a couple leather belt holster that will fit the Note 4.......................... Naked with a belt holster, or Case and in the pocket ?

Having purchased a lot of things through both Amazon & their third party resellers my experience is there has been no difference between them when you need to return something or have a problem with it. The return procedure is exactly the same for both of them. You print the prepaid shipping label & return it. Amazon stands behind their third party resellers to insure you have the same satisfactory experience purchasing through them as you do purchasing directly from Amazon.
