Accessories for Optimus Black

This is a placeholder post!

I bought a black case (silicone) with 6 screen protector from amazon.co.uk
delivery estimate: 5 July 2011

I also bought a silicon case with some screen protectors from ebay but I already have it. Fit's perfectly.

Guys, did anyone buy Docking Station? I can't find almost any useful info except model - SDT-200 9and maybe SDT-180). If you own one, pls share your experience.

i bought à grey silicon case and 5 protection screens all is perfect
Maybe some gps fixation later

i bought silicon case and two screen protectors from ebay UK. the silicon case is nice but the screen protector is ****. haven't had it more than a week and already a lot of small scratches. just by wiping the screen with a cloth gives you more scratches. altough it was really cheap so i probably shouldn't expect more.

it has gorilla glass, so normally screen protector is not needed (but I have also one screen protector, doesn't dare to test the screen without protection for the moment)

well i bought this one and i liked.
LG P970 OPTIMUS BLACK COVER REAR RIGID GEL-BLACK (B96B)
Payed around 9 euros for it.

usb cable
Anyone know what kind of cable it comes with? Micro USB?

Yes, the phone comes with a micro usb cable and a usb charger.

Well, i got too busy to bother to buy a case or even a screen protector, and hence caught myself using the Optimus Black completely naked since a week; and no scratch at all. The built quality is very good i assume.
.. Though will be buying a case in near future for sure. Just not sure which one.

Too bad! Capdase still doesn't have silicone / gel type casing.

this is my wife's setup, i got the 5 dollar folio case instead of the TPU a more expensive stylus

I have 2 N7's. For the one I keep in the house I have a "i-blason slim leather portfolio auto wake/sleep stand case" in black, (Amazon $19.99) a sgp steinheil crystal clear screen protector, (Amazon $21.99) and I bought a pack of two stylus from T-Mobile ($19.99)that are also pens, they're really nice.
For the other N7 that I take with me to work, use as a gps, etc...I have the "extact tpu x design hybrid case in black, (Amazon $5.95 with free shipping) crazy on digital clear screen protectors, (Amazon $4.85) and I keep the N7, with the tpu on, in a "Mofi 7 inch zip tablet sleeve",(Amazon $9.99) it's green and has Andy the android on it...love it! I also have a "blurex ultra slim multi view stand case" in black, (Amazon $12.99) I switch back and forth between the tpu case and the blurex on the 2nd N7...depending what I'm out and about doing. I also bought a "belkin" stand for watching movies when I don't want the N7 in a case...the blurex case doesn't have anything around the screen like the i-blason does, it's a completely bare screen except for 6 leather clips on the corners to keep the N7 in place. I bought a pair a skull candy ear buds in red, (T-mobile, $19.99) love those! I think that's all I have for accessories right now for both N7's. I bought 3 stylus (styli?) on Amazon for $1.15, they came in a pack of 3, bought them before I found the ones at t-mobile...prefer the ones from T-Mobile, much more nicer, they are skinnier and the rubber tip is firmer.

a while ago, i bought a prepaid cricket android phone + bluetooth speaker deal from bestbuy for 50 bucks, i sold the phone for 50 bucks on craigslist and got the speaker for almost nothing
http://reviews.bestbuy.com/3545/372...aker-red-reviews/reviews.htm?sort=helpfulness
since i found the nexus 7 speaker to be kinda weak, this small portable bt speaker is nice to have as long as you don't pay too much for it

The app "volume+ (volume booster) " by Meltus, helps the volume on the N7, like A LOT!

Case: Treegloo case-Black green inner lining, wood frame with suede lining with kinetic latch system.
Stylus: Kickstarter Solid Titanium Pen + Stylus-on order
Screen Protection: Xtreme Guard-wet install
OTG Host Cable: None

screen protector ，micro sd card reader with otg cable

This is a little video reviewing the case that I am rocking at the moment. Sorry it's a bit rough, you tube destroyed the aspect ratio. Please like it to help me out

Case: CaseCrown Bold Standby Case
Stylus: Dollar Store unbranded
OTG: Chinese cheap-o via amazon

First cheapo-until-something-better-was-available cover: KaysCase S-Line TPU
Nice color options, fits the tablet well. Standard TPU case but I liked the blue color and the simple design.
Primary cover: Official Asus Travel Cover
I actually like it, I just wish it came stock as a smart cover that held itself closed. I added a tiny thin magnet to the front flap so at least I get the smart function. I could probably solve the "doesn't hold itself shut" issue if I cared enough, but it suits for now. I'd like to see the other colors from Asus, especially if they come with a built-in smart cover. I also want to see the Premium Asus case when it's available.
Screen protector: amFilm Premium Screen Protector Film Clear
Basic dry application screen protector. Gets the job done cheaper than some, two pack in case you mess up the installation.
Stylus: Boxwave Evertouch
Feels lightweight and kind of cheap, but the mesh tip glides smoother than any rubber one I've used. Good color options.
OTG Cable: Need to purchase, but I just saw this 4-in-1 connector in another thread, and it looks promising, though a lot more expensive than the <$1 Hong Kong cables.
Gamepad: So far I'm just using my Wiimote/Classic Controller because it's what I've got lying around. Works well enough for emulators.

Skinomi Black Carbon back and sides.
Steinheil SGP Ultra Fine Protector.
Right Angle OTG cable.

Future: Pelican 1055, waiting on Otterbox. May get a Gumdrop case if Otterbox is stupid enough not to make a case.

Best Accessories for Nexus 10?

Hello,
I'm most definitely buying a Nexus 10 this weekend. What are the best accessories for it?
Most importantly I am looking for a dock/kickstand and a case. Can you people recommend any?
Thanks,
Crazysah

http://www.amazon.com/IPAD-ST-Universal-Tablet-Stand-Kindle/dp/B0045JNBNU is a pretty nice basic stand that works fine.

Any other recommended accessories out there?

The Moko Slim-Fit (note, NOT ultraslim) is a great case with the ability to act as a kickstand at multiple angles.

This Poetic case has been great for me.

+1 for the Poetic Hardback. I have a smart cover and a silicon case, but keep going back to the Hardback.
I would also recommend getting a POGO cable. Some question the price/value, but at this point it is the only option and I have found it quite useful in terms of somewhat faster charging and less wear on the micro usb port.
If you use screen protectors, you can just leave the one on that it ships with unless you want an anti-glare protector.

Get the SGP screen protector. Absolutely beautiful.

I've heard a lot about the Moko Slim-Fit versus the Poetic Hardback? Not exactly sure which is better.
So that is for the case. Both have kickstands right? So no need for a dock then?
And the POGO cable, yes, I'll get it.
Anything else I should for?

There are no true docks available for this device yet that I am aware of.
The Hardback case can be configured to prop the tablet open to several angles with the top cover laying flat in front of the screen. That might work differently than what some people think of as a kickstand, which to me is something that opens from the back to prop the tablet up and nothing lies in front of the screen. The problem with either style is that the POGO connector is on the bottom, so you might end up using the micro usb for power or maybe flip the screen upside down in the case, but then the power and volume buttons are on the bottom and you have the POGO connector sticking out on top. We really want a true dock for this soon...

Okay. The only question now is, The Moko Slim-Fit or the Poetic Hardback?

Why the poetic have that ugly cross on it ... Little macabre

I have the moko slim-fit, here's a quick run-down:
It's quite a good looking case, with various different colour options (I took orange). The PU material did not come stinking of catpiss, is very well made and shows no signs of wear after some use.
It has magnets that wake/sleep the screen and it can prop the tablet up at various angles.
It has a really nice microfiber interior, which will never scratch the screen and feels pleasant to the touch.
All the ports are exposed and easily accessible, as well as the buttons (this is not true for the poetic).
I also read that the corners on some peoples' poetic cases would crack.
Those are pretty much the reasons why I bought the Moko and I am more than pleased with it. Excellent case.

I would say the exact same thing about mine. It is a great feeling case especially when opened with the lid behind. It also has the little elastic to hold it fully open as well as the hand slip which I use at work all the time

I have the Moko Slim-Fit, and I'm very happy with it.
I made a review a couple weeks ago, it's in a spanish forum, but you may want to see the pictures I took.
Here's my post:

Digitals by design 13 piece set

I bought this set for the tpu case but it came with lots of extras
Otg cable, 3.5 mm to 3.5mm, 3.5mm splitter, ear buds with answer call button, USB cable, retractable USB cable, 2100ma wall wort, car adaptor, hard rubber tpu, fake leather book case, screen protector, necklace felt storage bag, a stylus.
The book case is well made but I did not like the fit the buttons at the bottom had a cutout the rest of the bezel was covered in the fake leather.
The tpu case I liked a lot more it fit well just grippy enough still had to make 2 holes in it for the ir blaster and the 2nd microphone.
Otg not supported on the tab 3 I used my s3 to test the cable and it worked. I have a zagg protector on my tab ATM when it gets worn out I'll try out the one that came with this kit I feel like the kit is on the cheap side definitely not worth the 99.99 amazon says it retails for but for all you get it is worth getting at what i paid. I paid 32.99 with free shipping at amazon it was on sale when the tab 3 first came out for 26 i really wish i had jumped on it then.
A note about what i received they say they will give a fish bone wire keeper for the headphones but what i received was the otg cable. Looking at the entry for it on amazon the 10.1 comes with a otg cable so i doubt anyone will get the fish bone wire keeper.

Wireless charging work with these cases on Note 9?

Wondering if either a Spiegen Ultra Hybrid or Otterbox Extender case interfere with wireless charging on the Note 9.

i had the spiegen on mine, worked ok with the wireless charging.

How about wireless charging with the Samsung Rugged Protective Cover?
I'm thinking about getting a nav dock with built in wireless charging.

This video from MobileFun shows it working with the OEM Samsung QI Wireless cheager:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyGlzgWr82c

I've tried both a leather wallet case (3mm) and a hybrid (5mm plastic) and they both fast charge with Samsung pad and factory fast charger. Not pushing Samsung but that's what I have! I actually like an IQ std 7w for most charging during the day (less heat)

Assuming you mean the Ottorbox Defender? Wireless charging works with all Ottorbox cases.

Yes, I did mean extender. Good old AutoCorrect never fails.

Found this
https://www.mobilefun.com/samsung/galaxy-note-9/cases/wireless-charging-compatible-cases

I stuck the phone and a 7-8mm abs sheet on both my Samsung and Ankler charging pads and got the same charge rate notifications ?

I use the Samsung Rugged Protective Cover with a couple of inexpensive dock-style vertical wireless chargers and have no problems. However, the inexpensive automobile dock with wireless charging did not work. I hope this helps.

this is highly dependant on the qi charging mat.

Ok, I got my hands on a wireless charger and tested the following cases. All achieved fast charging with screen off only. What an odd limitation to purposely build in. I was testing in order to see if a wireless charging nav dock is an option, but with no fast charge with screen on, the idea is pointless.
UAG Monarch
Spigen Tough Armor
Spigen clear TPU (I forget the name, it's the one that's flexible)
Rhinoshield Solid Suit
Samsung Silicone Cover
Samsung Rugged Protective Cover
I have not measured each one for thickness but I did measure the Samsung Rugged Protective Cover, which I believe to be the thickest of this bunch. The thickness of the back is approximately 3.6mm.
I've read some Amazon sellers state that their wireless chargers will not work on cases thicker than 4mm.

Unless your case has any metal or a very heavy coat of metallic paint on it. You should be able to charge it wireless without any issues.

Do you think sellers report a thickness less than 4mm just to be on the safe side?

Yeah it is responsive. I see no difference at all from having the case on and not on.
It feels like the film screen protectors. it is crystal clear.
I run the adb shell overscan commands to get rid of the nav buttons and status bar icons. so touch is important to apply needed gestures. I have not had any problems
