info on the illusive "Bodyglove Case" - Galaxy Note II Accessories

Normally these kind of things are not worthy of a thread but I had a hard time finding this case so hopefully I can help with this thread.
As of today, you can not find this on ebay, amazon, or other web stores found through google search
The only known website that has this is sprint.com and bodyglovemobile.com and they are both out of stock. I saw them in stock around 11/12 on both site so it's not those "we haven't updated our website" thing. It really is out of stock.
I called 7 official sprint stores in Los Angeles and only one store has it.
If you have a hard time finding it. Do a search on yelp and call around your local official Sprint store and refer to part number CZS5478Q. Non-official store are not owned by sprint so they will mostly not carry this accessory, don't waste your time on those.
The price is $24.99 + tax, sprint store currently has a 20% on entire accessory order if you buy 2 or more accessories. If you get a $9.99 screen protector you will end up paying $27.94 + tax. Just something to think about.
This case will fit Sprint, ATNT, TMobile version of the Note II and very likely international version as well. I believe there are also T-Mobile version and ATNT version of the bodyglove however I find the sprint model most pleasing to my eye.
Last thing I want to add is that this case is very slim. Doesn't add too much thickness like generic ebay tpu cases. The protruding protection edge to the screen is only about 1mm.

Nice pictures... and firearms :good:
How does the back feel in the hand? Looks like kind of a rough texture.

Back feels great. It's not as slippery as the battery door. This thing is also super slim; exactly what I wanted. Better grip and a little extra protection without added bulk. Only thing less bulky would be a skin. If you're prone to phone drops this may not provide the best protection but I'm careful with my toys so I'm not worried. Had my friend who works for sprint pick one up for me. Saved me a few bucks

Interesting.
Wonder what version I have? It's sold in T-Mobile stores...
This is also a slimfit. Is yours the anti-microbial version as well?

hmmm those pics have a really familiar presence. heahe... looks like my table and is that a rothko print in the reflection?

feels great, I change phone and naturally the case as well.
The embedding diamond pattern is about 1/4mm for the "height".
It is not rough on the hand.
This is the best tpu case that I ever purchased.

Looks very nice. Going between this and the Blue/Black Seidio Active Case w/ Kickstand. Called all the local Sprint stores, no stock. I have a cheap $3 case on my Note 2 right now that I will keep using until I can get a hold of something better.
Here is a link on Sprint's Webpage if anyone needs it.

Does ur version (T-mobile) of the case slides in & out of the pocket easily?the material looks alike with those spigen sgp ultra neo hybrid cases..& they r easy to slide in & out of the pocket...could u please take a picture of the front side?..thanx for the info..

if any of you guys are interested, i have a bodyglove case i got from sprint store couple weeks back.
I bought a case from seidio and i am planning to return bodyglove case back to the store.
If any one is interested, i will sell it to you for the same price i got it +shipping 2.95. we can do paypal.

Hmm...I really want the case shown in the photos of the OP. I am investigating and will wait around with one of the cheap cases til it is available. It's GORGEOUS!!
Ok, just found one (the last one) in a local Sprint store. Still interested in finding this online though. My girl will want one of these for sure!!

Just wanted to say thanks for this thread. I did manage to grab the last one at my local sprint store and grabbed one and I am happy with it. Wish the edges were a little firmer but it feels nice and doesn't add any bulk. HATE paying 25 for a thin piece of plastic but i guess it is what it is.

Here you go (its indeed a nice case): Body Glove Refined Gel - #CZS5478Q

Does this case fit nice and tight? I have a nillkin and I like how tight it fits, anyone had both that can compare them?

Looks like the link has been removed.
Anyone have another link?
I'm in Australia and I'm trying to get someone to buy it on my behalf but the link I gave them no longer works.

Damn I was going to order one of those!! What does the retailer say?
Holy moly. I just started using one of these today while waiting for my Noreve case! Think I'm going straight back to the other case until it arrives.
I would send it back to the supplier/HTC and see what they say. Does not inspire me with confidence at all.

woahh thats not good! I got that case for xmas and its held up ok so far... hope mine doesnt do that...

My goodness , i was planning to buy it from my local htc distributer . Now i think im planning to switch to others .
Is this case actually leather or plastic like the sleeve one from HTC.
I have ordered a Noreve one but was also looking at the HTC one.
I think you've just been unlucky????
I think you've just been unlucky????
I've had the same case for nearly 4 weeks now - constant use every day and its still as good as new!!!!
Reference the question above - the case is made from leather with a felt lining - and it fits the phone perfectly without increasing its size too much - so unless your happy with something more bulky I strongly recommend this case..... really!!!!
As I've said - I think you've just been unlucky and you should ask for a replacement.....

Oic , i think i will reconsider again if you said like this . May be just sometimes we were unlucky !!!!
I looked at mine again yesterday in more detail. The right hand strap that has failed is considerably thinner and "weaker" than the other side. I am therefore not surprised that this happened.
Have ditched mine, gone back to a more secure case until the Noreve comes in. Not really prepared to risk a £500 phone in a case that can fail like this one just has.
The annoying thing is that, from a design perspective, its quite a good case. Just seems there are quality issues with it.

Looks like a nice case!! i didnt even know htc did cases!! lol
(I know its broke, but does anyone have a lin for a UK Supplier, or the name of the case so i can have a look around at them.)
Many Thanks

Damn!!! Was just about to place an order for this case but thought I would have a quick look for a review and bang - it's top of the list of threads!! Must be fate!! Not sure what to do now.
What is the Noreve case like??

Hi,
I dont know why you would pay£40 for a Noreve case, when you can get exactly the same from ebay for £7!!

Re: My HTC Flip Case After 1 Day...
Is it the HTC HD2 Optional Leather Pouch PO S511? I think that, and the pouch are the only 2 "HTC cases" Here's a link to the Expansys page for it: http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=189819.
I had it on order to weeks from Mobilefun but I ended up cancelling bcause they were incapable of providing approriate stiock update information and ignored my requests for information.
I've currently got the Proporta Mizu Shell on order from Expansys.

My point is that the noreve case is £40 and the one on ebay is £7. so its not a matter of "you get what you pay for" its the same!!
Same holder. Full Leather, Black Flip Case!
MG
My Noreve case was £29.95 inc not £40.
If you take the time to look more closley they are not exactly the same but far from it. Im happy with my £29.95 Noreve Case you buy the £7.00 one. As i said before it is personal preference.

CONFIRMED! Blurex Case for Nexus 7

I contacted BlurexUSA.com with the following:
Message: I had an HTC Flyer and i bought the Blurex case for it. I thought
it was the best case for any tablet.
I just bought a Google Nexus 7 and was wondering if you are planning to make
the same style case for the Nexus 7?
Thanks,
I just got this email back:
Dear Jeff,
Thank you so much for your feedback and interest in the Nexus 7 case.
We will have them available for purchase in 2 weeks!
I will keep you posted.
Have a great day,
Alex
Yeah I already saw it on Amazon for the low low price of 299.99

I saw that too. Since they won't be available for 2 weeks, I can assure you that definitely isn't the price nor the correct one for the Nexus 7. It's just some dude selling the thing for over inflated prices. Probably because he saw people buying the IO version of the nexus for $500.
looks like this one that also has velcro feet..

I don't like the way most cases envelop the tablets, like the one in the above link.
Blurex one uses a different method. See the one for the Flyer. (I had the one with out the stylus holder)
This is the one for the HTC Flyer

That HTC flyer case has a different style than the Blurex case you mentioned, which on Amazon, also has velcro feet.
The HTC case uses grooves for its multi-angle points..Grooved designs are poor because a simple bump will knock your tablet down.

That is the one that I have. I bought it from Amazon.com. But I have the first gen one without the stylus holder. I didn't use the stylus so the two loops to hold the stylus didn't matter to me.
At night, I had it next to my bed and watched videos on it and I bumped it a lot and it never once knocked down. They aren't some flimsy case.
But, nonetheless, the people who like Blurex cases will be glad to know that Blurex confirmed that they will make this type of case.
You made your point in your OP . I myself was also in the market for this exact same style design with the velcro feet so the tablet doesn't slip. I contacted another manufacture and was bumed to hear they weren't making a case with that design for the Nexus 7 at this time. I was just point out other options given Amazon obviously has an incorrect price for your Blurex case. Which, if it turns out to actually be $29.99 ... the link I mentioned so happens to be $15 .. just sayin...

Here is the response I got from them...

*REAL* Blurex Case released!

I just received this email directly from Alex at BlurexUSA. He had promised to let me know when these cases were available. There have been SEVERAL fake Blurex cases for the N7, they were NOT real sadly. This one is the first, one and only true Blurex case for the Nexus 7 and even better they have it up for 6 dollars! Normally I pay 30 for Blurex! Enjoy guys!
EDIT: Actually I have been told there was at least one of these *fake* items that was in fact a pre-order to the real case. So even though it was only released today, they have been purchased. So if on the top of the page it says you've already ordered this item, then you are good. Though I would suggest ordering at least 1 more while they are 6 bucks!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey Robert!
GRRRREAT news! The case for the Nexus 7 is now available.
Here is the link to the Amazon webpage:

Yeah because some people called the company and were told the case had not been released yet. Therefore everyone thought that the case was either fake or intended for another device and then relabled by a dishonest re-seller. But now it is "released" and it's officially a nexus 7 case made by Blurex.
But unfortunately that one that you suggest is not the great Blurex Case (like I had for the HTC Flyer).
This one does not cover the bezel!
I just got an updated email from Alex at Blurex and the one like I am looking for, will take just a little longer. He provided the link on Amazon for it.

Digging that one, i was starting to fear they would not be making one like that. Oh well, cancelled my *second* Blurex order. So I have the 6 dollar case coming and I will buy this one when it is released Thanks for the find!
But its not sold by Amazon or Blurex themselves, its sold by some random seller in the OP link so I wouldn't take the risk

Blurex doesn't have a store on their website. They are in Taiwan. They offer their items through authorized amazon dealers. The only way to ever buy their stuff is through sellers like that. This link was given DIRECTLY to me by Alex from BlurexUSA. It's legit.
I hope they're actually making that case specifically for the Nexus 7...because based on the speakers I can see in that picture (and the bulky thickness), that's a Kindle Fire (hoping it's just a placeholder image until they get an actual product in production). I have a Marware case for my Kindle Fire that does work for the Nexus 7 (I'm using it temporarily), but the side buttons are difficult to push (and impossible with big fingers). I would love it if they made one just like that for the Nexus 7 with slots for the buttons as I love that style of case. Minimalistic.

Well until it arrives in 2 days time no one can say for certain, but the company provided the link themselves so the odds are, it's a placeholder image
I've shared a couple emails with alex from blurex. He said they will make a case with smart cover functionality.

Thanks for that information. I'll be getting a different case now but may get that blurex when it's released. I'm guessing it won't be much more then the ones without the magnet.
I really like mine (for the Fire). I have few requirements and the blurex is inexpensive, simple elegance.

it won't. they haven't released the smart covers yet, which is probably why they're currently unavailable on amazon. you should email the seller to cancel/hold your order and to get more details.
I want my 1 dollar back! lol. I like the other one coming out better, but the 6 dollar one will hold me over until it's out...I mean...it's 6 friggin dollars.

"Otterbox Commuter" Mod with a Kickstand

Otterbox offers some of the best protection cases for devices. It rarely incorporates kickstands as part of the main casing. This shows you how I managed to splice in a thin kickstand from another casing. This saves you from carrying those stands so you can watch videos hands-free.
The "Otherbox Commuter" case you see here is an exact $5 replica done by a company called Swisstech in one of their kiosk stores here in Metro Manila. The original Otterbox Commuter cost $70 retail here.

The TPU case with the kick stand actually cost more at about $9!
You can exact the process with the original Commuter case if you want to do this.
This will give you peace of mind for accidental drops but giving you that kickstand function but still as thin.
Here's the video link of the finished case:

That's a lot of work for a single position kickstand. I just attached this kickstand to my case and I love it:

Nah, the point of the project was to really put the stand inside and not be just anything that I put on to the surface of the case. The 3 hours I put into this paid of so that it can still fit into my book hiding place for the Note II.

I've been to the Philippines twice and love it. It's not that it's so dangerous that you will get robbed blindly down the street, it's that items of value are less common, so you could get swiped in the most inopportune times. In the US or other locations, it's more common to see expensive gadgets. There is a lot of poverty in the Philippines and in regions of the world like that, it's very common.
It doesn't suck because you grow up knowing that's the way things are there.
ANYWAY, back on topic. Is there any way to get a Swiss-Tech case online? Was looking and it seems there is no way to get them. I like the price and the difference in look from the "Otterbox".
I'm all for making mods where necessary, but a similar case with a stand already built in seems easier.
This one is $7. My wife and I have them in different colors. They're great.

There's none, as I mentioned. There are even different color variants of the silicone part of this like pink, blue, red, yellow and white.

Nice but it doesn't ship to my country and it would take almost 2 months to arrive if it does!

looks nice, but 10 bucks for a 2 inch piece of plastic with tape on it is kinda crazy..

Ya shipping cost sucks however I was able to get 3 for $13 including shipping with a coupon.
yeah, 4-5 bucks delivered isn't bad, but anything more is silly
Id just go for a otterbox defender case. Super tough case plus the clip on the holsters locks open if you want to become a stand.. on the down side this case does make it a bit bulky but still protects it extremely well. .

Yes, there are reasons why is choose the Commuter over the Defender. One thing is the difficulty of changing the battery and taking out the micro SD card. I'd not be using that holster that much either. Where would I store that? I'm trying hard to conceal the Note, not actually show it off on my waist.

Not saying you wanna show it off. I only use it because I work on construct ion sites and it offers superior protection ......

I can understand needing the Defender in a construction site. I'm an architect.
The reason for me is to conceal the Note II:

Instead of bumping your review up by asking, you could wait a day or so and see. Mine is arriving today, so I will comment on what I think of it when I go home.

It has nothing to do with bumping my review up as i dont benefit anything by doing that. I am just after some unbiased responses from other xda members. I am interested in knowing if others share my view or not. Like i have said before i dont make any money from my reviews it is a hobby and i am just trying to help others.

I never said that you did, but bumping a post less than 24 hours later isn't necessary without new additions. I was only mentioning this because it's something that I see quite often. I will let you know what my impressions are later tonight as I mentioned.

Did you get the black or red one? If you got the red could you please post some pics of it on the phone. Also do the sides feel well fitted or a little bit loose sometimes on the volume rocker side about a third way up? I

Can you please let me know which screen protector you have and which one you are going to replace it with? I haven't been able to find a suitable one yet.

Well to be honest they all have been sh*ty thus far. I have the yootech currently which is nice depsite it lifting with most cases. I've tried 9 different ones so far without one really being 'great'. I'm going to replace it with one I bought from Verizon as an intern solution

Why did you bump your thread? You know that you are supposed to wait 24 hours before doing that.
I posted the review of it in my case OP. I was disappointed in more than one way with the case, and it did have the issues you mentioned, as well as some others.
Hi Ram,
Great review for a great looking case. I think buying this one or Spigen Rugged Armor. My main goal for a case is the minimal bulk, no fingerprints and nice looks. What do you think if i should go with spigen or evutec ? I am very familiar with Dupont Kevlar as i have had Kevlar on a number of old motorola phones, i like the kevlar material, you cant go wrong with it. I wouldn't think for a second and buy this if they used the following pattern instead of the boring and regular carbon pattern..Looks nicer, doesn't it ?

I am more keen on ordering the evutec but i am even sure if they ship their products to Turkey. On the other hand, Spigen Rugged armor is already available in Turkey for the same 30$ price in here.
Btw i have found a new design from evutec with a different pattern

Hi and thanks for the kind words, the evutec will be more protective in my opinion. Evutec is also unusual as I would doubt anyone in Turkey has one so it's unique which is something I like as I love being different. The Spigen case is lovely you could always get both and return the one you don't like.
I bought my evutec case from eBay as the seller I bought it from was selling it cheaper and shipped to the UK in fact he ships internationally I am sure evutec don't ship internationally so it's worth checking out eBay or even mobile fun as they might ship to Turkey also there is a red version of this case for sale. I hope this helps

Thanks ram, good to know they ship to Turkey but the price including shipping cost is 40$ and i couldn't justify that much of money for a case. I am going to wait for prices to go down a little more. :good:

See if you can find it on eBay, I bought one from an American seller and shipping was free to the UK and it cost £21 which is not too bad.
