I bought a case for $ 6 @ P Mall covers the back and sides good enough for me.

i think theres another recent thread on this. I hate cases, but love my Samsung TPU case. Super thin, rubber sides, plastic back that looks like factory back. Most people have no idea I have a case on it. Paid $15 for it
Do u thinks they have tpu cases for this phone in the kiosks in the mall. Need something to hold me over until I can get mine from eBay. All they sell at the carrier stores are flip covers for 50 bucks.

Bought a $3 TPU case off ebay. Thin and protective and looks great.

I was thinking about one I saw on ebay with a transformers logo on it. Thought I might go super geek and a bit flashy this time. Atleast until the outter box defender comes out.

I bought the JKase Premium Quality Samsung Galaxy Note II 2 GT-N7100 Streamline TPU Case Cover - Retail Packaging - Clear from Amazon. It was cheap and I was able to get fast 2 day shipping with Prime. (can't post a link yet since I am new)
This case and my Note 2 will be arriving tomorrow. I hope the case will be enough to hold me over until a better deal comes about on a name brand case. I'll be pairing this with a Spigen screen protector.
Im using the white and grey case mate case from at&t. The reason, I billed it to my company.

Is that the case you ordered as well? Seems they took the option for Amazon Prime away on it.
Got the black Body Glove case from Sprint and love it for it's thin form factor, non-slippery feel, and design.

Same here. I also have the Proclips mount in my car, meaning I have to take the case off to use it. The Body Glove case comes off and goes back on very easily.
Also bought the body glove one from sprint. Was worried about cases and adding bulk but this seems to be minimal and my phone doesn't feel like it's going to slip out of my hand every time I hold it.

I went to several Sprint locations, and none of them had the body glove case. I was also hoping to get something with a belt clip.
The only case I found locally in stock for my Note 2 was at the AT&T store and it was a white/grey CaseMate with a built in kickstand I think it cost $38 and did not come with a screen protector. Wish Otterbox made a Commuter style with built in kickstand for the Note 2.
Case
I bought the Ringke SLIM Soft Feeling Premium Hard Case. It's slim. adds very little bulk while protecting at the same time and got it off of amazon for 10.99 on sale from 25.00. I added the Spigen SGP Ultra Oloephobic screen protector and it's totally protected. I love them both.......
Have this:
http://www.amazon.com/Cruzerlite-An...6902&sr=1-2&keywords=cruzerlite+galaxy+note+2
Goes really well with the Titanium Gray Note 2.
$5 Ionic Position folio-style case off of Amazon. Offers good protection, looks good, and doesn't have a magnetic closure (huge!).
I just purchased a Seidio Active-like case off of Amazon to use until the Seidio Active combo either comes down in price or shows up at Best Buy for 2/3rds of what it costs now.
I also just returned an Amzer Shellster because it was a piece of crap that broke three days in. Spending $6 to return an item that I'll get $14 back for, after spending $5 initially to have it shipped. Really thrilled about Amzer's customer service policies.

Same here. Paired it with the Spigen UC screen protector which was a PITA to install on such a large screen!
Forgive me if I sound daft, but I have been browsing the forums looking for the best case that would protect my phone. I am deciding between either the Otterbox Commuter, Trident Aegis, Ballistic, Seido Surface, or the Best Buy Platinum Series Case. I am leaning towards the Seido, but have heard somewhat mixed reviews about how it attracts lint, and how it seems loose at times. What I am wondering is, I have heard that the Platinum Series case and the Seido Surface are exactly the same, but with a different logo. If this is true, why are people purchasing the seido case when they can save almost 20 dollars, and get the one from best buy?
Is there some difference that I haven't caught?

Was just at a Best Buy today and they had no cases for the GN II. Here's the Platinum Series kickstand case online:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Platinum+Series+-+Kickstand+Case+for+Samsung+Galaxy+Note+II+Mobile+Phones+-+Black/7175042.p?skuId=7175042&id=1218832287567
I purchased one from best buy, in store. They only had one so they must have a very limited supply. It was only $34 for the surface with holster. Great deal! I did take mine back as i just got my otterbox defender in. The case and holster were very nice quality though, no complaints! While the sedio is much slimmer i wanted the extra protection of the defender and the ability to place the phone in the holster screen out. I am using the holster as my car mount so having the screen out capability was a must!
I pcked my Best buy Platinum case on Sunday and it is very good quality. I am very pleased with how the case feels and how the holder works. It was on sale for $29.99.

how did you do that ? pics please.

The three best buys near me don't have any cases for the note 2 except the crappy flip cover.
I tried to get the PT case, but every store in Houston was sold out, except the one in the Galleria...which is an absolute traffic nightmare during Christmastime. I'm thinking of getting the store near me to to a transfer, or maybe they'll get more in stock.
Anyone got a review on this case?
Can anyone try the spen around the kick stand?
swyped all these spelling errors from my galaxy note 2
The platinum brand is in fact made by seidio. Same case. Best Buy Platinum brand. It even says seidio on the bottom of the packaging fyi

Any videos of this case? I want to see it lol
Id also like to know if any one had tested the spen near the kickstand. Someone posted a pic of how the magnet curves lines where the spen is, can't seem to find it now though.
A good reason is that not everyone lives in the USA and has a Best Buy on the same continent On the other hand, Seidio ships all over the world, and as do eBay sellers.
Because Best Buy does not deserve my money. That place sucks.
I have the platinum bb case. It IS a seidio surface case and holster. I immediately checked out the Spen around the kickstand cuz I'd heard complaints about the seidio active, and I have zero issues. All works well.

I decided to feed the beast because they're close by and I did manage to find one in stock. Also a fair bit cheaper than buying online and having it shipped. Buy online for instore pickup FTW!
However, NO THANKS WHATSOEVER to the best buy at 99 and 1093. I asked those turdburglers if they were in stock at the store that I'm going to go pick it up at this evening...they said "NOPE". Of course, that store could have got stock in, but I doubt it. Furthermore, they didn't offer to do a store transfer that did have one (and I wasn't smart enough to ask.) Their customer service blows.
Hello guys.
I am searching for a new case for my note 2.
Currently i have a tpu case on the back but I want something different.
Thought to get a wallet case (spigen) but they are so bulky. Don't think that I will like it.
Now i decided to look for a slim and nice leather pouch.
I found one from buggati, mumbi, krusell luna and the original Samsung pouch.
Which one can you recommend or doym you have other nice options for me?
Thanks in advance

I just ordered one of these yesterday. I had one of their sleeves before for my Galaxy Tab and it was great. Good padding, well-made, very inexpensive. The protection on the sleeve seemed reasonable, though I cannot yet comment on this new item.

Pouch
First I went with one $9 belt pouch from eBay that was junk (I can fit two Note II inside). In the past I had Monaco pouch with belt clip for my ol;d Samsung smartphone running Windows Mobile and it was the best pouch I ever owned so I did some search and found that Monaco has a horizontal (and vertical) pouch designed specially for Note II. It cost more than average pouch but I can assure you it is really a high quality product and N2 fits inside well. I've ordered it from here along with car charger to get free shipping:

Can you post a link to that eBay case or do you want to sell it? I'm looking for a belt holster/pouch that I can use with a case. The two I've bought so far will only hold the naked phone.
Have you seen this from Samsung?

I don't like this horizontal case. The original pouch looks great and is really slim but I don't know how it holds the phone and how you can push the phone out of the case.

It's a leather vertical pouch. I like it so far.
I use this one:

Im looking for a pouch where it can fit while in a case havent found one yet

So got the Waterfield case. It's a thin sleeve, won't really provide any protection from drops (just protection from scratches and scuffs in a pocket). It's not bad, and at $10 it seems reasonably well-made. Fits nicely. Really just a cloth pouch though.

Looks the same as the one you don't like but for $5 can't go wrong. I like it. It has rings as well as a belt clip. It also holds the note 2 with a tpu case on.
I just purchased a Galaxy Tab 3 8.0. Can't find a case to fit it. I'd like to have one made specifically for it (not universal) that has the "elastic strap" that secures it when closed.
Try a brand called incase it slides into the case and 2 little velcro flaps hold the top in. It has the elastic strap on it your looking for. Bestbuy has them for about $29-$39. They are made for exactly the case (book) your looking for. Its a great case, they call it a book. I have one for my 10.1 and love it.

I like the Moko case recommended elsewhere under this topic. Very slim & made specifically for this tab. The only thing I don't like about it is that with the case closed the alarm is essentially silence,. Available on Amazon for around $15.

This case actually looks good when it comes to protection, but I'm not a huge fan of the leather. Any idea where I can get a similar case but with different material?

The MOKO does cover the corners via the back cover clasps,I bought from Amazon for $20 delivered.
It also puts Tab 3 8.0 to sleep when you close it,perfect fit and works great.
Forgot to say top cover folds back magnetically to form a rear stand.
I got a cheap one from Amazon for £8.
I cannot fault it. Works well, good quality and snug fit.

I am hoping that the simple leather back only case from Samsung is premium and thin like the iPhone OEM leather case. Does anyone have any more detail on that case? Like height off the back and type of leather?
I want that case badly but doesn't look like it's coming to the USA, it's not on preorder on the Samsung website

It's not on Samsung's site, but I did find it on MobileFun (http://www.mobilefun.com/58017-official-samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-leather-cover-black.htm)
I know nothing about the retailer, but it seems like it's not going to be ready for 1 month, so that may be why Samsung didn't list it yet. I believe the same thing happened with the view cover when I got my Note 4, Samsung didn't have it for sale until a little after release.
I like it too, though Tetded, Sena, and Zenus seem like good alternatives. I only want a leather case.
The one case I'm really looking forward to is that case with the camera lense. I'm hoping it feels good enough to not have another case

For now, one can buy it directly from Korea. But even there, it ships after the 11th & is only preorder basis.
