Word of Warning

Ok, So my case finally arrived today, At first impressions it was nice, Just what I was hoping for.

After taking it out of the wrapping, I realised it had a magnetic lock so I immediately removed it and replaced it with one of those clicky buttons you find on jackets / jeans.

So, Got that sorted, Phone looks nice and neat, No magnetic interference anymore, I removed the phone from the case to apply the free screen protector, What can i say ? It was $HI!T !!! It looked like it was made from sandpaper, it looked like I had grease all over the screen after i applied it, I instantly removed it and binned it !!

So, moving on, I turn the phone over to look at the back before putting it in its modified case and guess what !!! The damn case had died the white battery cover black !! It looks a f*cking mess ! I tried to wipe it off with: Polish, Bleach, Soapy water and everything else i could find under my sink ! NONE OF THEM WORKED !!!

So now my case is ruined, My phone is ruined and i paid for the damn privilege !!

Here's the case I bought, And the name of the seller.... Please do not buy from this guy !

And here is what my phone looks like now :(https://dl.dropbox.com/u/69014495/20120702_133100.jpg

The back cover is really worse than it looks on the pic, It was pure white, Now its a filthy grey - 50 shades of grey !!

So, I must leave !! to write my massive complaint, Hopefully get my money back along with money to buy a new OEM back cover for my precious Note !!

BE WARNED !!

EDIT: I have purchased another case, This one looks promising :)

I'm in the same boat as you are regarding the back cover.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] azzledazzle:
Damn thats a pity !! I read the negative feedback of the seller and its happened to several others too ! (should have read it before buying)

Did you contact the seller regarding this ? Have you had a solution ?

I demanded a new battery cover and linked the seller to the place that sells them. If that fails i'll pursue it through ebay.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] lagittaja:
I sent the seller a message couple hours earlier today.

And no I haven't found a solution to the tainting yet, I still got a few things to try if I manage to get it white again :D

I'll let ya know how it turns out (contacting seller or making the cover white again)

E: I managed to get it white again!

Took a plastic bowl. Boiling water + some dishwash soap and laundry detergent -> threw the back cover in there and let it soak there for maybe 15mins. Came back and tada it was white. Then I just flushed it under tap water and dried and put back on.

In case you wonder, no the boiling water didn't hurt the plastic of which the cover is made off but if something unwanted happens to your cover idgaf -> your responsibility.

Hi,

For me, the case should be slim and not bulky. Most importantly, the case would be able to protect all sides of the phone when it falls or at least to minimize the impact.

Bought a dark blue Nuoku leather case directly from a shop (about USD 22), to add to my collection.

The description; durable structured genuine leather which protects against scratches and scuffs, c/w scuffs soft suede inner lining and anti-scratch screen protector (1 pc). LOL, fancy description indeed. :laugh:

Overall, the quality of workmanship, including the stitching around the case is very neat. There's also a classy logo of the company at the inner suede (back of front cover). Apparently, the feel of the surface is different from the conventional leather type, something different. :good:

any rugged nylon belt case out there?

Hi

I have been looking sine I got my note at the weekend, and have not been able to find a "rugged" heavy duty nylon belt case to fit the note.

I enquired about the universal cordura holster from proporta, but it's too small according to them, as is also the Clip Case cargo tall Nite Ize.

BTW, first post so unable to post the links. Sorry!

Has anyone found anything similar which fits the note?

Thanks

That is not metal..its only plastic bumper..

cost $4.20 USD from focalprice or DX.

Was using the official Samsung flip case but now using

Cruzer Lite Androidified A2 High Gloss TPU Soft Gel Skin Case - For Samsung Galaxy Note

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Black-Cruze...CX2O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1341823332&sr=8-1

like it a lot, design on back is funky and doesn't add too much bulk to the phone

only thing is the camera hole at back is little larger than it needs to be imo but will do i guess, all holes align up fine and doesn't effect my screen protector.

plus only £9.90 delivered (UK)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] DJ_smooth:
Nite Ize fits with a bit of a stretch. I used it for a couple of months until I got the Seidio case. Really like the Seidio. Convenience of a belt clip plus the protection of a slip on case if I drop it.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] azzledazzle:
Mine is very practical, I can just fold it back so i can hold the phone to my ear, I can also use the tab that closes it to prop my phone up in landscape mode.

awesome case.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Cinthiar:
Hello everyone,

Yesterday I ordered these:

http://www.dealextreme.com/p/protective-tpu-case-for-samsung-galaxy-note-i9220-black-110802

http://www.dealextreme.com/p/wiredr...se-for-samsung-galaxy-note-i9220-black-134341

Both of them look pretty solid and the cheaper one has at least gotten some good reviews. Dunno about the aluminum case though. I ordered it because it looked so cool. We'll see how well they handle the job. I will post reviews when I get them! :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Cinthiar:
I just recieved my cases today. I am pretty impressed by the quality of them both, totally wort the ~8€ I paid for them. Here are some photos of them. Don't mind the focus of the camera, it is a little off because the object of my camera isn't ment for taking photos so close.

This case fits really good on my Note. It was easy to install but kinda hard to remove. The case is made of hard plastic with aluminum on the back. The black painting on the aluminum seems to be good, at least it doesn't take scratches from finger nails. Remains to be seen how long it lasts. The case feels like it will protect the phone pretty well although as you can see it leaves top and bottom open. So don't drop it on those sides! ;) There are holes for volume and power buttons and for speaker so they are easy to use. It is also easy to take out the Spen. Overall cool and sturdy built case. Totally worth every cent it cost.

This one was really cheap. I didn't expect much from it and got surprised by the quality. It doesn't look as good as the first case but it feels it takes it all back in protection. Installation was easy and it is also easy to remove. Fits perfectly. With this case I feel really confident using my Note. The grip is good because of the pattern on the sides and the plastic is a little softer than on the first case but still harder then jelly cases. Power and volume buttons are covered so they are a little hard to use but I think I can get used to it. Power button is easier to press than volume buttons. The stock charger fits perfectly, so no need to remove the case while charging. Spen can be taken out easily. So overall if you are looking for a really cheap case I would recommend to go with this one as it is pretty much free. :D 100% worth the money.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] NotablyNice:

Have you noticed any interference with your reception? I heard that these aluminum cases interfere sometimes. Or at least make the sound quality of voice calls worse.

Hoco Flip or Case-mate (or other)?

Have a new white Note arriving soon, been trying to find ideal case...

I like the idea of a flip case to protect the screen but the Samsung one gets bad reviews everywhere for poor quality edges.

Am tempted by Hoco Ultra Thin Leather Case as has better reviews:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/WHITE-Leather-Genuine-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B007YM0BLU/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=2W022MIZNXH9P&coliid=I3O6ML9EDGH4YX

But, for pure "in case you drop it protection" I read great reviews for the Case-Mate Tough Case. But their black, so asthetically not my first choice.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Case-Mate-Tough-Case-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B00778EMQG/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=2W022MIZNXH9P&coliid=IVCSXY34NDXNE

Any advice? Wish there was a poll somewhere.

Anyone have experience with this case/back cover? All the color options look snazzy, at least from the back anyway.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Silver-...192445?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4aba6b947d

How does it work? Is it like a barely there case or does it actually replace the back cover and snaps along the back? Also can't tell how far the sides go up, whether it completely covers the chrome trim or not, or if it clings to the top part to stay in place.

Just ordered a Zenus case.

After reading for a couple of hours on the internet I decided that would be best value for money. As I wanted a flipover cover with genuine leather.

I ordered mine on ebay for around 20 euros incl. shipment to the Netherlands.

Zenus MASSTIGE BLOCK FOLIO COVER

http://www.ebay.nl/itm/180883796717?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Zenus makes different kinds of cases, but I wanted a neutral looking one. ( I choosed a brown one )

Almost wanted to order this one, but it looks a bit to rough for me , and I wanted to stand feature (what this does not have)

Navitech and Capdase

OK, after a few days use here's an opinion on the Capdase Alu case and the Navtech leather cases.

1st, the Capdase. It's not purple, its magenta. One might even say pink. It's not bad as far as build quality goes, no appreciable signal loss and feels solid in the hand. Sadly, it doesn't fit the phone as well as it might and grit is certain to get between the phone and the silicone liner to the case and scratch it up a bit.

2nd. The Navitech bycast leather case. You can tell it's cheap fake leather, the bend at the hinge started to crack after about 20 minutes and the closure on it is just a length of elastic. The swivel for the stand functionality is pretty good and you can have the case opening left or right handed which is a nice touch. This case isn't going to keep anything off your note, but it'll stop things in your pocket dinging up the phoen too badly. it's also pretty good for watching things on netflix while commuting to work on the train.

both are pretty much what you would expect from the price point.

Counterfeit Zenus cases?

Is anyone aware if there are counterfeit Zenus cases on eBay? I bought a Zenus Prestige Vintage case for £17 (new). It's arrived in what looks like legitimate retail packaging (then again the fake LunaTik I bought did too!). The leather is much duller than the colours show on the Zenus site and in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1522641 and the stitching is also a different colour.

My Note doesn't fit in it too well (the case doesn't seem to hold the phone in place well and I'm pretty sure it's likely to fall out at some point) and the magnetic clasp won't even hold the flip cover shut! :(

I've had it confirmed by Zenus after sending over some photos that the case I've bought is indeed a fake. There's lots of bulk buy fake Zenus cases on sites like alibaba.com so be careful when purchasing cheap cases off eBay.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] c0nvict:
So that means it's not real leather? Mine is duller and the stitching is brown instead of yellow. Also the phone doesn't fit in perfectly. I bought mine for 27.99 usd.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Nos0x:
I don't know whether the leather is real or not, but it would appear that if the stitching and leather is a different colour to the official Zenus product shots then it's likely to be a fake.

I used this same case when I first bought the phone. Unfortunately when I was watching videos with my earphones, someone's backpack hooked onto my earphones cable and pulled my phone onto the ground. The drop was about 2 feet, but it was bad enough to dent one corner of my phone and put scratches on all the corners and the edge of the screen. I was so mad because I hadn't even used my phone for a full week yet.

I searched a lot for case last year when I got my GNote(December). After dozens and dozens of searches and looking and reading on many, MANY cheap chinese cases,

my final choice was that IMHO the best and cheapest according to quality TPU cases were from NiLLKiN.

I have bought 2(ClearBlack and MatteBlack) and been using then extensively for 9 months now, with no signs of deterioration nor any scratches and the phone was dropped quite a few times.

Very satisfied and I wholeheartedly recommend them.

US Ebay(For Europeans also since buying from European Ebayers the price is almost double+shipping too). China is the way to go. Cheap and FREE shipping! :good:

http://www.ebay.com/dsc/i.html?LH_B...rd&LH_PrefLoc=2&_osacat=0&_odkw=n7000+nillkin

Cheapest Ebayer for NiLLKiN and looks pretty legit according to the feedback. Not shown in the above results because he says "Silicone" instead of "TPU" in it's title.

He's my preferred choice and I will probably order the blue one. Not many in stock tho. Well, there're others too anyway.

Hi all,

I have bought at least five cases for nelly (nelly note is her name, don't laugh)!!

Anywayz, i have finally found the perfect overcoat for my girl, it's the Amzer shelster for the GT-N7000 it also fits american model, its as good as the otterbox and cheaper and the inner sleave will fit in the official samsung car dock which is also pretty much the best i have bought once i have removed a couple of mil of the docks corners, I'm not kidding this really is a brill case, so slim, light, belt clip + desk stand, nelly can be worn face in for total protection or face out, all secure, check out this link to have a look, only downside found is u can have any colour as long as it is black, bought one for my girlfriends S3 (bluey)please don't laugh!!. S3 gets a choice of black n red, black, red or white, she chose the deep red one now all is peace and harmony.

Pleather case with belt clip

I just received a case from eBay purchase that I'm sending right back. You can see it here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160686053787&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123

It will hold the Note, but quite loosely so there is a lot of slack front to back, and it is not tall enough even with the described "stretch" for the flapover to fit over properly and latch down.

So I recommend that you not bother with this - move along, nothing to see here.

Still looking for a good case that I can attach to my belt, that is not TOO expensive.

I found this one shown below, have it on order http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160686053787&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123

It looks like it will be a much better fit than the one mentioned above.
