Tpu cases on ebay

Just found out that there are a few cheap TPU cases on ebay now for the Note 2. They are top quality but should protect my baby for a few weeks before other ones come out

Yeah I saw a few on there the other day. What kind of case do you really want? I've been a big fan of TPU as they have protected my EVO and EVO3d very well.

I have bought these 3 cases so far to go with my WHITE note2:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/261102219336?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/20082258...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/251150214926?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
But ultimately I will get a dual layer case such as Otterbox .....although I have taken off Otterbox on my Note 1 recently and replaced it with a TPU which makes the phone much thinner
Hopefully Otterbox and other dual layer case makers will make WHITE colour cases to go with my white note 2 :fingers-crossed:

I love tpu cases, it's all I've ever used with my n7000.
I like the Mercury brand of cases, they have a glossy and non rubbery texture.

It does come with screen protector, but because of the S-pen , I wonder how will it react.

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

Yeah one of my friends had power button issues with his first note 2, so maybe mine just has an issue. I'm going to swap it out tomorrow I think.

Have been using the very same case for almost two weeks now, and so far it's been the best case for me. I gave away the seidio surface to the at&t store, and a couple of eBay cases, since this pop will be a daily driver for the near future. If only they made the same in black, I'd switch...

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.

Otterbox Commuter IN STOCK

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

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?

I don't know about the Commuter, but I wanted a Defender for my old Atrix 4G but I ended up not getting it because it was too much of a pain to remove it for the car dock...

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.

They are $34.99 here SmartphonePedia.com
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.

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

Mime glass and white UAG. Otterbox commuter back in the box. Best SP and case combination ever. And I have gone through dozens with iphone 3 3g 4 5 galaxy S2 Skyrocket and now Note 2.
This combination is light clear and if I want another color just duct tape the insert. Its like being a horse of another color in the emarald city ( haven't tried green yet, hmmmmm )

Genuine Samsung Note 2 case, it fits the phone perfect, it has rubber sides and hard back. Samsung did a great job on the case just like they did on the phone. ZERO issues as it is made FROM Samsung. This is the perfect case for me..I do not have the overhyped UAG case nor the fever that seems to be spreading.

I'll update with a pic when I un-F my ROM's camera.

I've had roughly 50 cases since I resell them for fun. Of these, I've kept the following for myself:
2 UAG cases. 1 in black and 1 in white
2 Sweet Armor bumpers. 1 in Titanium Grey and 1 in Matte Black and Silver
1 Spigen Ultra Flip
1 Seidio Convert holster (only the holster, sold the case)
These are, IMHO, the very best available in each of their classes.

Went with the white Uag, preferred it over the silicone of the aegis

I've been switching between the Ballistic, Aegis, and UAG. It would be just the UAG if it didn't make the phone feel so wide.

Mind me asking what screen protector, if any, that you are using.
Every time I put on a different case, the edges are different enough that they cause problems.

I have the Ringke Air but it's going back to amazon. The fit is perfect, it's really light, has a grippy but medium-quality rubber grip, but the left & right sides of the case are too soft & loose. They sometimes lift & peel off when you pick up the phone by its sides. If they made the rubber around the sides a bit rigid, it'd been perfect.

I believe the pictures I posted speak for themselves. I had the issue enough on both my crystal and normal hybrid to easily see it without looking for it.

Ringke Slim for sure!

FazeRN I like your way of thinking. There are lots of good choices on the site. I will add a couple. These companies are specialized in power cases with the difference of possibility of upgrading the case even further. You can get upgrades like laser pointers, better camera lenses, environmental sensors, specially designed VR packs etc. Nexpaq and I-blades are the brands that will set the bar for smart cases in the future. Take a look
