[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] KnoxBNYC:
I have to say that, although this case initially may feel kinda cheap, I love it (the chemical smell goes away in a few days). It ads surprisingly little bulk to the tablet, and makes it EASIER to hold on to. When this case is on, I feel much less like I am going to drop it.

The other thing that they do not mention, that they should, IMHO, is the two magnets keeping the case closed. Very nice touch. Also, The velcro under-flap that keeps the tablet inside the case is surprisingly secure feeling.

One more thing I wanted to mention....

I bought this case near the beginning of an extended trip out of town. I quickly realized I needed a case for this, so ordered the Poetic case using the link that khel26 included. A couple days later I realized I had shipped it to my home address, which I would not be at for close to a month.

I contacted Exact Deals, who sells this via Amazon, and told them the truth, and acknowledged that, being shipped via First Class USPS, there was no way to redirect or call back the original shipment.

I asked if I could, instead, order an additional one (shipped to the correct address where I would be for the next month), and then ship back the one sent to my NYC address when I get back home there in late January to early February.

A couple hours later, I got back the nicest reply from them:

>Dear Knox,

> Yes, that's totally fine. Please send it back to:

> RMA# X-XXXXXX-X

> Exact Design Inc

> 1661 XXXXXXXXX St, Unit XX

> San Francisco, CA XXXXX

>

> No worries. We'll be awaiting the case for a refund. Thanks.

> If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know.

> Alex from Exactdeal

I really appreciated how quickly he got back to me, and his relaxed,"no problem" customer service attitude.

I'd really like a case (preferably a folio) that does a good job of holding it upright in portrait mode. I saw the one with the strange circle on the back, but it looks a bit cheap, and like it doesn't protect the edges terribly

well, nor does it appear to keep the tablet all that securely in place.

I think the rooCase dual view and the Poetic 360 degree cases might be what you are looking for.

Thank god tpu cases are finally out for the plus!!!

I just got this one off eBay thanks to you guys!

I just searched tab plus tpu. Not sure if it was the same as the second one posted earlier but I choose this one because I have the skinomi skintech carbon and a GoW3 sticker already on it. Hoping it will be clear enough to"enhance the finish"as the description says.

Here's a pic of my case+skin now:

Got the carbon look portfolio style case off Amazon. The inside is lined with fur lol. I like it.

And I finally broke the ice w/ my first post after years of lurking :)

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] vauxhallastra:
I have the Folio case, it is shockingly bad. There wasn't much choice where I live. It has the worst landscape stand,unusable, wrong angle and just falls over. All of the port holes never line up as the tab doesn't sit in it firmly. I dont recommend it unless desperate.

I had an awesome gel case on my p1000, which would be great on the p6200. It fitted well, protected well and had a decent stand for landscape use.

I haven't seen anything as good as this on the p6200 so far imo. Just leather cases or gel cases that don't have a stand..

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] myoung84:
I first bought a RooCase and hated it. It's way too thick and the leather band around the screen made it hard to touch the edge of the screen. I now have the Incipio case and like it a lot. I paid about $34 for it. It's much thinner and doesn't have anything over the screen. It's also very easy to remove.

Plus Book Cover Case

Got mine today. Perfect!

I love the fit, feel, how thin it is on the tab and the stand mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] deolarte:
sucks, really bad, the material is cheap. The screen protectors are nice, but the cover attracts dust quickly making it look really gray. At least it was only 8 dollars I spent. I do not recommend this.

Poetic Standbook Case

I just received my Poetic Standbook case ordered through Amazon. I love it! It's light, protects the Galaxy Tab 7 plus well, and allows me to drop my Tab into a jacket pocket. The price was right, too -- $12.95 shipped to Denver , no shipping charges. And it arrived in 3 days. I'm impressed. The cover folds back completely making reading in bed easy and all the virtual buttons are easily accessible. This is an elegant, classy-looking case.

I had a rooCase Executive Follio but found it too bulky and heavy and some of the buttons took several presses to hit just right because of the thick cover around the bezel. OTOH, it offered great protection and was very well made.

Note: I see that the case is now selling for $18.95. Bummer.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] motohip:
I got mine just in time.

Poetic Case Closure

@Mycopsycho:

Does the Poetic case have any mechanism to keep it closed, such as magnets? I didn't see this mentioned on Amazon. If I had purchased it sooner for only $12.95 I might have been more willing to just keep it closed with the addition of something stretchy.

Sorry I couldn't quote your post, but I am too new to be allowed to post links such as yours to Amazon. Thanks for your description of the case.

ETA: I see now that it has a tab that keeps it closed.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Mycopsycho:
The tab does a good job of securing the cover. I hook my finger around the tab when the cover is folded back.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] painter_:
Ever since you posted this the second mic being covered bothered me. I fixed it with a leather punch. Now I have a hole over the second mic. Now I need to test record a video and see if it even records in stereo.

This is the $12 TPU case I purchased through eBay from the Podishop. Exactly what I wanted because I can still fit it in my pockets, my case and it doesn't damage my screen protector or my vinyl wrap.

Cutouts are 98% accurate and it even had a spot for the sim card. I say 98 because even though they line up without problems, its not 100% perfect. Non-issue.

Even though its covered, the IR blaster still works through the case. Haven't tested if it affects range.

Initially, the power and volume buttons were hard to push BUT anyone who owns this tab knows how annoyingly easy it is to accidentally push them!!! To top it off, after about 2 weeks of use, the buttons have broken in and they are a whole lot easier to push yet still providing protection against accidental button presses. I love it!

It looks nice with the semi-transparent smoked hex pattern.

Lightweight and slim. CHEAP$$$

Everything you would expect from a tpu skin.

I recommended this case.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Gam3r 4 Life:
Hey guys. Just ordered this case here. Ive been searching for a case since I got my plus. I didnt want the folio type, but just the kind that covers the back. I also wanted to make sure whatever case I got didnt interfere with the screen protector. I have a skinomi coming for it today. In the past I have noticed with some cases that if they wrap around the edges too far that they can press up against the edges of a screen protector causing it to peel. That is why I cant use any of the cases I have on my EVO 3D. So Im hoping that this new case wont do the same. Ill update and write a short review about it when I get it in about a week. Thanks for all the suggestions and links. It actually helped me find the one I ordered.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] govtcheez:
I have that case and it's good for what it is. A simple TPU case. I have a nearly identical one on my phone as well, which kind of looks cool because they match (are boty Samsung Galaxies).

There's a new case for the Tab Plus on ebay called Sikai Microfiber case. I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on it as it seems to get decent reviews for other models. Anyone have any direct experience with these for other tablets?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Gam3r 4 Life:
Looks nice. Heres a link
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Macros617:
I was about to buy it but the shipping estimates threw me off. I'll stick with the Moko case for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Gam3r 4 Life:
UPDATE: Ok, I received the case today and thought I would write a quick review. It really looks great, and feels great too. Much more grip. All the ports are cutout well, and the two tone look of the back is awesome. I only have 2 gripes. One is that it is a little loose on the bottom and could have been made a little smaller so that it was more snug. But its not loose enough that it will fall out. And the other is that the power button is a little hard to push, but will probably loosen up with time. The volume works great though.

Another nice thing is that even with it on it still fits in the sleeve that I had originally got for a Kindle Fire, and doesnt add a lot of bulk to it. If your looking for a non folio type case this is a good one. Besides there isnt a lot to choose from as far as non folio types. At least on Amazon there isnt. Ive uploaded some pics, so take a look.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] govtcheez:
It's free shipping for me, but the one thing that's putting me off is how loosely it looks like it fits as the case looks much larger than the tab itself.

finally got hold of the capdase flipjacket.. so far im loving it because it has a soft jacket and a leather folio case all in one.. keeps my tab protected.. :)

what i did was to remove the small round magnet with an Exacto knife by making a small cut and i glued it back/

I use a combination of that TPU case inside a Casecrown hard case. While it doesn't have any additional room for those things (perhaps just a screen wipe/cleaning cloth), it's pretty much bomb proof, so you can toss in inside any bag afterwards.

This came for me today

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180779463445

Won't bother posting any images as they're already on the ebay page.

Tab clips in perfectly, case rotates 360 degrees. Stand works perfectly in landscape, doesn't stand in portrait without a degree of balancing.

It's padded enough on the case front, back and spine, however there's not a lot on the other edges. Good thing I don't drop my hardware.

Anyway. The only potential issue I can see is from the bracket itself. It's made of some plastic composite, which may become brittle over time and snap at the corners where the tab clips in.

At £10, I'm not complaining.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] nyarltep:
I bought this case based partially on your recommendation. I agree the bottom could be snugger. Grip is good with the two textures. I thought it would be stiffer. Amazon shipping was fast.

There's a number of new cases on eBay including the Yoobao leather one (I had one of these for my iPad and it was pretty good, but the price is rather high) and some new color options for the PU Leather case, which looks similar to the OEM or MoKo case.

Darnit, I wish I had seen that a few days ago! Just got the Blurex case in earlier today. Its much nicer than the cheap ebay case I had been using. The first thing I noticed is the smell. I'm sure it'll go away in the next few days. The case is actually quite slim and the fit is good and tight. I'm a bit worried about the catch scratching the side of the tab, time will tell there. All the ports are accessible, I'm even able to use the USB adapter with it in the case. Overall, I'm quite pleased with it.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007G8LHOW/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details

I highly recommend *not* getting this case. It doesn't work at all in portrait mode and only one of the horizontal views works securely, the higher degree view (which unfortunately is the one I use most often) makes the device feel like it's going to crash every time you touch it.

Sending mine back and hoping the Blurex is much better.

My Blurex case is very stable on it's stand in either position. There is no vertical orientation on it though.

I tried this case:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200728292321#ht_2504wt_1139

Quite a nice case, not proper denim sadly and the stands on the rear feel a bit on the thin side, but otherwise it's very stable in both positions and makes typing on the tab a breeze. For a tenner it's about right. :)
