Cases!

All i see are pouch and folio type of cases, hoping more choices come out soon.
What i miss is the black $10 TPU case w/ kickstand i got on eBay for my original Tab - i wish there was an identical one for the 7 Plus. It won't fit the 7 Plus as the 7 Plus is slightly longer. Thinner is nice w/ the 7 Plus, but I feel like i can more easily lose grip of it compared to the original Tab.
I have a few kickstand accessories i got for my old Tab, but they're not as convenient as a little fold out stand that comes out of the case it's always in.
For now, i took some carbon fiber vinyl covering i had left over from covering my laptop and covered the back of the Tab, then i shaved the back off an extra case i had for my Droid RAZR and stuck it to the back of the 7 Plus w/ double-sided automotive tape. So now i have a kickstand that folds out of the back of it.

The RooCase people inform me that they will have a pretty nice case out for our GTab 7+ around the end of December exactly modeled after the A100 case. Had one for the A100 and it was quite nice. Functional and well-built. The Executive Portfolio model here. Leather is good and the screen frame is securely velcroed. Got it for about $35. I plan on snagging one.

Poetic case is good for the price http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006DKEUL6
Update: woops sorry i didnt realize that you werent looking for folio cases. Anyway, i ordered a skinomi black carbon fiber protection made for this tab. Unfortunately, i havent received the item yet after 2 weeks of waiting. Im having a very bad experience wit them right now. 3 days after i ordered i made a followup, they told me that they had just processed and shipped my order. I was thinking if i hadnt emailed them, they wouldve neglected my order. Anyway, benefit of the doubt, fine. I waited 10 days nothing was happening on the tracking number. I emailed again earlier to followup and voila! The shiiping just started! What the hell is wrong with those people!

Mine just arrived. I put it on and it's setting. If I have time tonight, I'll post more thoughts and pics.

Got my poetic case last night. i'll put pics up today after i get off of work, but i like it. It has cutouts for nearly everything. The only piece that does not have a cutout is the IR transmitter which is easy enough to fix. It has a nice magnetic closure, and the flap to hold the tablet in has velcro which my similar case for the transformer did not have. All cutouts line up reasonably well, the front microphone and camera are not perfectly centered, but that can be attributed to how far i shoved the tab into the case.
Overall i rate it 8/10, its going to be the case I use for the foreseeable forture, the price is great, and the shipping was fast.
(will add pics later today)

Yeah my issue with Skinomi was resolved by their manager. Anyway, the carbon fiber skin looks great and the screen protector is smooth. There's a little bit of protruding skin on all 4 corners because they only designed two pieces for the sides that go from top center to bottom center (left and right pieces). It's not a big deal actually but the pointed corners poke my skin sometimes.

It's a folio case, but I'm interested in seeing more about this incipio T-mo offers: http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones...-phone=Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-7.0-Plus-4G-Prepaid

I'm glad I found this thread. I've been looking for a case too. I heard back from otterbox CS and they said they have no plans on making a case for the 7+. I'm waiting to hear back from case mate.

!!!CHECK TWO POSTS BACK FOR tHE LINK, NEW POSTER AND CAN'T POST LINKS YET!!!
Also VERY interested in T-Mobile's Incipio folio case. I have looked at the limited number of cases currently available and they all look pretty bulky. Especially since one of the main features of the Galaxy 7 Plus is how incredibly thin it is. The Incipio case looks pretty thin and form-factor (from what I can tell.
Anyone have experience or seen this case in person??? I have called a number of T-Mobile store here in NYC and none carry the case (most don't even have the Galaxy 7 Plus at all).
Thanks!

Mine got anymode vip case.. It slim

If anyone has the official case, I'd be very interested in pics, videos, thoughts etc. I'll be buying it as soon as I figure out where to get it from (im in norway)

I have been searching for cases for days, and i got my + relatively early. Just so you guys know, many of the folio cases for the original Gtab will fit the +. However cutouts will be incorrect for headphone jack, IR, and camera a bit offcenter. I hate folio cases and just want a plastic/gel snap on for the back w kickstand.

I purchased the T-Mobile Incipio case and it fits great. It was a little pricey at $50.00 but there werent many options. They were having a "buy two accessories get the third one free" promotion so I also bought the screen protector and an extra charging cable.

Any chance you could post a few pictures of your tab in the case? None of the T-Mobile stores in my area have it, so I need to get it online. I'd really like at least a semi-decent look at what I'm getting before I pull the trigger and purchase one.

I think its a good fit. The sim card slot and sd card slot are covered but I rarely need access to them.

In other news, roocase now has some 7.0 Plus cases: http://www.roocase.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-7e0-Plus/cat-l/c103881.html

Can anyone recommend a case?

I bought the HP sleeve off amazon for 8 dollars, but wish that I had gone down the book case instead. I played with my buddie's G Tab 10.1, and utilizing the case's 3 leaning angles was an absolute dream.
So, anyone have a case you'd recommend? Price does matter, as I'd like one within the 20 dollar range.
I found this one. http://www.amazon.com/CrazyOnDigital-Leather-Charger-Protector-Samsung/dp/B008MPZKAK/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1346629523&sr=8-4&keywords=galaxy+note+10.1+case

I took a chance and ordered this yesterday. I don't care about the case but I am hoping that the charger is good as I really want a second charger. As for cases, here is the case that I am waiting to get later this week. It has a nice cutout for removing the stylus and i-Blason really puts out a great quality product every time I have purchased from them.

The vendor of that case has issues. Not shipping orders despite product being in stock. Also, PU, not leather. Erroneous advertising.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831019
discussion about cases.
my 2 cents, don't get a KaysCase case unless you want something cheap, disposable, fake leather, and not a flush perfect fit. Mine came with a couple of defects, and the front doesn't lay flush on the tablet which causes it to slightly obscure the front camera. It does what I need it to do, but I intend to replace it down the line when there is something good being made that doesn't compromise on function.

I'll give a second vouch for i-Blason, via Amazon;
http://www.amazon.com/i-BLASON-Samsung-Galaxy-tablet-Leather/dp/B008L2WS8Q/ref=pd_cp_e_1
For $13 I'm surprised of the quality really, and the PU 'leather' it uses feels more like real leather than many real leather products I've seen. The case has a little stretch loop, that is actually about the entire length of the s-Pen, which is handy place to stash the pen quick if you put your tablet down for some reason. Fit is great, all the ports and button have access, the only 'grip' really is that when the cover is closed, the spine of the case blocks the charging port, which does not have a cutout on this part of the case. So to charge the tablet in the case, you must leave the lid open.

thanks for the reply everyone. Lots of helpful suggestions. Love this forum.

Xperia Z Krusell ColorCover NOT GOOD !!!

I have purchased an Xperia Krusell Colorcover case about 2 weeks ago and I have created this thread to share my impressions of the case.
So here is a video where you can see what the case looks like and how it fits on the device.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QherL9S1WlQ
I have to say that I really liked the case at first. The price tag on the one I got was about 12 euro (its 100% genuine as I bought it in an official retail store), which I thought was very decent for a case from a reputable manufacturer that offers lifetime warranty especially when compared to the likes of Case-mate where price is significantly higher.
As you could see in the video at first I really loved the case. It has a nice coating which gives it a rubbery feel and it doesn't add any unnecessary bulk to the device.
Now after having the case on my device for about 2 weeks I am a little bit disappointed. Although I have not yet dropped my device and never carry keys in the pocket that my phone is in the coating layers seem to be coming off one by one. I noticed that the rubber feel coating is gone on all corners, there is a scratch on the back of the case and that on one corner you can already see white plastic !!!
I have used cases from Spiegen and Case-mate before and that has never happened. So it looks like you get what you pay for and it's worth paying a little more to get a case that is gonna last you more than a month.
It seems like the cases come in two variants one with a cutout on the back for Xperia logo one without. Other than that they are the same. The case comes in a variety of colors. Mine is black.
UPDATE 21/03/2013 So I have made a warranty claim at Krusell and they are sending me 2 brand new cases Let's just hope that they are gonna be a little bit better this time. I will post pictures once they arrive
UPDATE 2 6/04/2013 It looks like Krusell has one of the best customer services I have ever come across. I have received 2 brand new Krusell ColorCover cases and this time they are the version with cutouts for the Xperia logo. The previous case that I have used for a mere 1 month is already useless. Not only has a lot of coating came off but I also got a crack on one corner just from taking it off and normal usage, so I guess the new cases will be going on an internet auction as I shall be getting something more durable.

looking for a horizontal belt case with velcro closure

Hi,
I've been looking for several weeks for a belt case that is :
- horizontal - not vertical, as vertical would not be practical for me to wear it all day, because of the length of the S4
- belt case - with at least two belt loops, better even if it would have an extra belt clip. don't like the ones with only a belt clip, don't want to risk having it grabbed from my belt while commuting in public transport every day
- with velcro closure - will never buy one with magnetic closure
why these specific requirements:
- I already have a Tech21 protection back case, so the case should be slightly larger to fit that
- I don't like the case + holster combos, bought one for another phone years ago but never used it, adds too much bulk
- I never wear my phone in my front/back pockets, I work at a desk most of the time, plus I have other stuff in my front pockets.
The only thing that I found on Amazon/eBay is a canvas case that checks all the above cases, I think it's originally intended for the Galaxy Note, I bought one, but I'm not happy with overall quality because of several things: bottom cut is too small, elasticated margins are kinda off centered, overall feels very cheap. I wasn't expecting a better quality, as I already used a similar case for some other phone, but this case being bigger, the "cheapness" feeling is largely increased, it's just a big, wrapped cardboard shell ... And given I'll have to cut out part of it in order to enlarge the bottom hole, it will degrade faster than normal I think.
So I'm again looking for an alternative, but I can't seem to find anything. NiteIze are smaller ( M and L ) or too large ( XL ), most leather ones are with magnetic closure, most canvas ones are vertical ...
Does anyone uses a similar case ? I've also searched the Note parts of the forum, but no luck there neither ... Any help much appreciated

Sorry, I can imagine that one point I'll have to relax some of my "must have" specs, but I won't have magnets sitting next to my phone for 8-10 hours a day. Magnetic closure is a definite no-go for me.
But some of the ebay sellers might be willing to replace the magnetic closure with a velcro one, I think I've done this 5-6 years ago with some other case bought on ebay.

Anyone uses the Nite Ize ( http://www.niteize.com/product/Clip-Case-Cargo-Sideways.asp ) ? Not sure if size L barely fits or is too small, and XL seems too large. And they don't quote internal dimensions :

Medium: 4.5" x 2.5" x 1"
Large: 5.5" x 3" x 1.7"
X-Large: 6.4" x 3.5" x 1"

I had the LARGE size for my Bionic and it worked really well... the S4 will fit, but it is VERY VERY tight...pain in the butt pushing it in without turning it on... so I don't use it anymore.
Was going to get an XL so I can use one again.
I carry business cards in there as well as one of these...(see attachment)
It held all that and my bonic well.

Thanks a lot, looks I can rule out Note Ize. I've measured the Note case and it's 5.8" ,looks like the XL at 6.4" will be too large, even with protective cover on.

These are a little pricey but it's the only company that I know that really lets you customize it just about however you like.

Thank you, I'll ask if they do Velcro.
For really pricey, look up the Easecase on ebay, I've had one of those customized with Velcro for a Nokia years ago, good quality but expensive.
So.far amazon sellers turned me down on Velcro, hope I'll have more luck on ebay.

Found another pricey one: http://www.ion-factory.com/carbon_pouch_note2.php
[Edit] My bad, the pictures are a bit misleading, has in fact a magnetic closure

I've been heavily searching the last few days, it seems the velcro cases are rather rare and the offer very polarized: you either get something cheap and lowish quality, either you pay a hefty price for good quality leather. By "heafty" I mean $50 or more, which to me looks rather expensive for a leather case, but of course YMMV.
Here are my findings, in case anyone else is looking for a similar case, sorted by price:
- 0-10$ - not many options, but there are a couple of canvas cases with velcro on amazon or ebay, if you want to use the S4 with a cover, look for Galaxy Note models. They're basically cardboard covered in nylon canvas, might have execution flaws, but one might get lucky and get a decent one. There's also a "USA Gear" neoprene case on Amazon for 9.99$
- 10-30$ - practically nothing ... everything in this range has magnetic closure, asked tens of ebay and amazon sellers for a velcro version, got back only negative answers
- 30-40$ - Fortte case for naked S4 Fortte "Leather Case for Samsung Galaxy S4 - Lateral Pouch". Belt loop is an extra $4, plus shipping so the real price is 40-50$ or more depending on the shipping destination. Velcro is an option at no extra cost. Different other paid customization options
- 40-60$ - Forte for S4 with case Leather Case for Samsung Galaxy S4 - Lateral - Size Your Pouch - you get to specify your measurements. Belt loop is an extra $4. Velcro is an option at no extra cost. Different other paid customization options. Need to add shipping costs to have a grand total.
- 50$ - Easecase - see ebay EASECASE shop. Can do velcro, can customize different options ( belt loop type and other ), different designs available. Free shipping worldwide.
- over 60$: tuff-as-nuts.com Nutshell Series: 224 Velcro is a well hidden option, last combo box way down the page. $64, probably plus shipping.
- over 80$: Col. Littleton - The Aviator Phone Holster - Large . Advertised for Iphone, but should fit a S4 probably with case ( Inside Dimensions - 6.125"W x 3"T ). Comes at 87.50$, probably plus shipping. Not velcro as I was looking for, but not magnetic either. But darn expensive.
In the end, it turns out it's even harder than I thought, to find what I was looking for, at a reasonable price. If anyone has other pointers, please don't hesitate to share.

[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.

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".

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.

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.

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.
