Need Heavy Duty Protective Case - Nexus 10 Accessories

Hey guys, does anyone know of a heavy duty case that's available for the Nexus 10? Sort of like Gumdrop's Nexus 7 case, or an Otterbox case.
Something that could withstand or at least give the tablet a better chance of surviving if dropped by a child (repeatedly).
I was really hoping that Gumdrop or Otterbox would release something by now, but I've already been waiting for a month or so and I can't bare to leave the tablet at home all the time anymore.
Many thanks and Happy Holidays.

...anyone?

Seidio said they are making a decision on the Nexus 10 at the moment. I would choose that over a Gumdrop any day. I have one on my Nexus 7. So any one that wants one I suggest you contact Seidio so they know there is plenty of interest.

Hey, thanks for the info! Their cases look great, I went on the website but can't tell whether or not there's a protective layer over the screen, do you know? That's what I'm really after, like how the Otterbox's have.
Thanks again.

No there isn't on the Nexus 7 cases sorry. Gumdrop do a protective layer over the screen though.

Looks fairly sturdy.

thanks
You sir, are the man...exactly what I was looking for :good:

I'm curious how this (or any other really) would work with the NFC function.

Well I just ordered it so I'll let you know when I get it. I also ordered a smart cover also. Heck it was only 0.01$ plus 498 shipping.

Got the one for a penny two. Its a nice case, I had the same one for my infinity. Please let me know how the heavy duty case works out. Its pricey but if user reviews are good I may try to talk my wife into letting me get it.

I'm holding out for the Otter Box. I had it on my XOOM and it paid for itself over the years because I'm kind of a klutz.

I'm holding out for otterbox too. But I did email and tweet Seidio saying whomever gets it out first gets my money.

Looks fairly sturdy indeed. Looks pretty cool too (imo) I may buy this case... at some point (a little bit too pricey for my tastes to be an impulse buy )

Haha well it's allot cheaper then an otter box will be. I asked them about it they still say they have no plans. :'(

Seidio said they are still deciding whether there is enough demand to the 'active case' for the Nexus 10 like they did for the Nexus 7. Fingers crossed that they do, they are way better than Otterbox. They said the more people who contact them & ask the more likely it is that they'll do it.

That's why I want Seidio tomake one, for that front cover. Awesome to just cover the screen and toss it in luggage or a backpack.

I don't quite understand sorry. Do you mean you like the Seidio 'active case' with cover, or do you mean you want them to do a different one?

Active with cover.

Yeah. the Otter Box people always say that when people ask about new device support. They said the same thing about the XOOM, and lo and behold we got a XOOM box, which has been awesome, BTW.

That's funny. I sent of a few emails the other day to the major case makers because I'd like to know if they're going to make cases for this tank of a phone. Haha. Yesterday I was downtown and, here in Spain to say hello you give the person a kiss on each cheek, the person who I now hate accidentally knocked my phone down on the floor. I am so glad I bought a cheap case off the net before I even got the phone. It saved my phone. Don't ever go comando with your phone! Haha. This 3 dollar tpu case saved my phone xD. I hope seidio or case mate make their dual layer cases soon. Hehe.

Hmm, what's great is these companies are telling people different crap. Where, if you go to say AT&T's site they are selling case mate and otterbox cases for the Note 2. I've contacted Otterbox and Case-Mate, both companies told me they'd have official releases mid nov/early dec.
What i dont get is what is a man to do with a phone this size? Carry it in my hand all day! Def not going into my pocket making me walk strange. Would never buy a leather belt case that make it look like a 1990 fanny pack. I need a plastic holster!

Here's another option:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009UWAIEC/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=A19R3BN6ZSO9A1
Much cheaper and more readily available, although I'm sure that Case-Mate case is probably better built and stronger.
american sites are a joke,they charge us in UK over $25 for shipment and if you in USA want to buy anything from UK shops it will cost you only £3.50,stuppid,i would never recommend anyone get from them is a rip off

Looks like a nice case, but unfortunately the kickstand appears to be landscape only.

Found this:
http://www.fommy.com/view-full-page.php?skuno=94947
The Amzer from Fommy is generic and is tough to find at the moment. Was thinking of purchasing 30 or 50 for around $5 and reselling. Make around $5-6 a pop and it'd be worthwhile to throw a mailing label on it and give to the postman. Could do some of them as a group buy on here for cost if there was enough interest. I really want the one I link to in the bottom paragraph.
I have a similar one that has a jointed kickstand on the case itself which serves as a great fingerhold to make the phone more one hand-able. Though you could do the same with the Amzer one if you left it in the holster, screen out. It just adds to the bulk. I just had this one ship which is the same as the other amazon link, but actually in stock. Not sure how that stand will work as a finger hold, but we'll see.
This is the one I have for the S3, and I hope they make it for the Note 2 as that will definitely be my go to case with it. I get the tips of my fingers resting comfortable at the far edge of the case. Raise my hand higher and allows my thumb to easily extend to every part of the phone. It's the gripping of the far edge that makes the larger phones less one handed.
I found this one. It's not a name brand that I've heard of but it's a dual layer case with a kickstand.

Flygrip
If you don't need the case and are only looking for the kickstand, try FlyGrip. Mine got mailed out today, so I can't say how they work on the Note 2 yet.
However, he made videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/FLYGRIPinc
He also gives away a gel case if you want one.
These guys make great cases.

Well I'll find out by the end of the week. I just bought 100 of them. Get the itch to resell once in a while. If they're loose, I'll let you know. They've had good reviews in general. I'm using the tpu kickstand one now because it was cheap. The standard is okay. Have to trim down another invisible shield because they cut them too big and it's peeling around some of the edges. If any one throws on a protector, make sure it's cut small enough to come inside that raised glass edge.

Casemate pop w/ kickstand

I posted a few pics of this case in some other threads but after a few days with the case i feel its needs its own thread. This case is an awesome case. I purchased it for $40 at an at&t store and replaced my sprint bodyglove with it. The cas3 feels better in my hand then the bodyglove. It definitely feels like it would protect better if i drop it. It fits very good nice and tight. It has a really nice gloss finish and the kickstand really comes in handy when my sons watching movies. I was gona get the otterbox commuter but im liking this case so much i think this ones a keeper. I highly reccomend this case

Thanks for the quick review! I was hoping to get this case as well. I had it for my Galaxy S2 way back when (I won it online, hehe) and absolutely fell in love with it.
I don't understand why Case Mate says they weren't going to make this case, and it's already for sale, just not on their website. Exclusivity? I don't know... Lame!
I hope speck comes out with the Pixel HD case, I loved it
I bought this case today at att. I also just got my phone today.
So odd, after putting the case on my phone acts weird now. It powers off randomly and shuts off when I unplug it from a charge (occasionally)

Hmmm so far i havent had any issues. Also i had this case for my s3 bc like now it was the only good case that seem to be instock when the phone 1st came out and also just like now i had to buy it from an at&t store. But once the s3 was out for about a month as we all know every company was pumping out cases and i was switching cases every week. Ended up with an atomic green commuter but was about to go back to the casemate then i sold my s3. Its an awesome case

I like the Pop Case as well. I had it for the GS2, GS3 and now the Note 2. It's very solid for protection and there is enough edge covered to protect the phone when it is turned face down. My favorite things about the case is the grip. It's enough to securely hold the phone and not too much that you have to battle to take it out of your pocket. The power and volume buttons are covered just right as far as no accidental presses while still being easy to press.
I don't use the kickstand too much but it could be made more solid as the hinge feels very fragile. It does work however in both portrait or landscape placement.

It's also worth mentioning that, unlike most cases like it (at least the ones I've seen), the rubber edge sits perfectly around the edge and does not touch the glass. And it is completely solid and does not move at all, so there is no accidentally slipping it off and loosing protection.

Are otterbox cases easy to remove to put in a car dock or more importantly, to change the batteries?
If so, which one should be easier, the defender or the commuter? I don't mind the bulkiness of any case (if they do protect), but I do want to remove them easily if I need to. The slim, non tpu soft cases, are very hard to remove. I'm using a flexi tpu now, very easy to remove, but ugly, and not sure about protection.
So would the ottebox be good for me?

They're all that price when they first come out. After a couple weeks you can find them for about 35. And it's quite a bit more case than a commuter and has a holster.

I would pick one up but Im waiting on reviews. I hope the buttons aren't as hard as the S3 Commuter. I loved my Commuter case for the HTC Evo 4g, HTC Evo 3D and The Evo LTE. Why are the commuter cases for Samsung phones so horrible? I bought the case for my Epic 4G Touch and S3 and they are both terrible cases. I hope they don't disappoint me on this one because I really like their Commuter case.

I'm personally waiting for reviews too. The back polycarbonate hard shells doesn't seem grippy enough. My favorite case on my Intl S2 was Case Mate's Tough Case. I'm waiting for that one to become available, if at all!

They're all that price when they first come out. After a couple weeks you can find them for about 35. And it's quite a bit more case than a commuter and has a holster.

I want the Defender case as soon as it comes out. I saw on smartphonepedia it was available for shipping 4 Dec. And you can pre-order it now. I'm wondering if they're gonna release more colors like they did for the S3. I'd like a pink one

If you check my original quote, we were referring to the defender in that particular exchange.
I had a defender for my Nexus and that sucker was huge; I stopped using it. I could only imagine what the Note 2 with defender would be like. Maybe the commuter case might do the trick. I will call around to Verizon and see if they have them. Can't beat 25% off.
I had a defender on my nexus and it still wasn't that big to me lol. But I have big hands...the note 2 is finally a phone that doesn't feel too small in my hands haha
Just ordered mine from their website, can't wait to get this baby!! Couple this with my Just Like Glass screen protector and I should be well protected from bumps and drops.
The button press was so difficult on my S3 that I will pass on this case. I highly doubt they messed with the formula... plus, this price, even at smartphonepedia, is horrible compared to the competition, that I can't justify paying so much.
According to their website the black one is still out of stock. I don't know if I should keep my order or cancel it. For some reason I didnt see Out of Stock when I ordered it from their website earlier, maybe I was too excited.
for those worried about the stiffness of the buttons. I had the commuter on the s3 and after a week of use the button was fine. Alot of people got the case tryd it a few days and gave up. My gf had a commuter also and it took her bout week and a half 2 weeks for hers to loosen up but she dosent use her phone as much as me

Pure laziness from case makers...

Anybody else notice the lazy design choices case makers are making?
Like this one -> Case-Mate OLO
And this -> Incipio DualPro
They destroy the look with the back of it where the camera/buttons are. Like they just cut a block out and call it a day.
Then don't buy it...

Uh.. I won't? I'm just asking if anybody else sees this?
I've used these in the past for other phones. But these for this phone look horrible.

They didnt get lazy with the Verizon version: http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...s-verizon/dualpro-case-for-lg-g2-verizon.html
But if you notice, it kinda looks like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinking_bird
Id rather have the "lazy" version
35 for a case mate or 8 for a case off amazon that's not lazy. I'll take amazon.

Ugh - no kidding! The $5 generic TPU case I got on ebay looks better designed than these!
While you may not like the look of those cases. I can attest that the CaseMate does actually protect the phone. My GNex slipped out of my hands atop an 8 foot ladder. It bounced on a step half way down. And no damage ! Try that with one of those $5 cases.
On another note, I'm still waiting for the Spigen Slim Armor case to come out for my Verizon G2.
It would be nice if Otter Box would make a Defender Series Case for the G2. I prefer protection w/holster.
I have the ballistics case . I think it looks great. A little thick, but I know the phones protected

If you guys only knew how much these cases actually cost to make, you would throw up. I know, and it's simply ridiculous.
I won't go into why or how I know, but cases that are selling for $15-30 cost about $0.50-2 max to make. The price to profit margin ratio is even more than clothing which is pretty hard to do lol.

What confounds me is how ugly the back covers (the ones with covered buttons) look, with the exception of the ballistics case.
To me the covered button is a must to space out the distance (through indentation) between the lens and the buttons for my fingers. The Case-mate could be nice but just look at the way the lens opening is designed. Pleah.
I order this case

That's a decent case imo. I looked at it but didn't want the gray color the T-Mobile store has.
