Got my official HD2 flip top case today... it's ok, but doesn't clip closed securely. Fit round the device and camera is good but just let down by the catch.
Would not recommend as when it pops open, the clip tends to sit right onto the speaker and pressure would likely cause damage to the screen/ speaker.
I'm surprised to hear that. althought I'm using a Piel Frama iMagnum at the moment, I really like the PO S511 Case..!! the one I have closes really good, I worried about that as well but the end of the closing/catch is just big enough so it won't fit into the speaker.. maybe you can try to bend it a little so it will close better..
I find the design rather brilliant, the way it follows the tappered design of the HD2, I mean the bottom part of the case is just a little bigger then the bottom of the HD2 and the top flip fit's precisely inside the screen, and offers great protection for your screen when it's in your pocket of you open jacket and you might accidently hit something. I liek the way it closes, you can open and close it easily with one hand and because it has no snaps it lays flat on the table and makes it about the least bulky flip case you can find.
Also, call me weird, but it smells exactly like a p-dair case when it's new, I would not be surprised if they where made by them for hTC.
I have only seen pictures of this case, and I am curious as to how it works. Is the device itself somehow strapped or mounted to the case so that it doesn't fall out when the case is flipped open?

it makes use of the smart tapered designed sides of the hd2.. the sides of the case are slightly bended inwards so the HD2 slides in like a V-groove untill it hits the slightly upwards bended connectors of the flip on the bottom. althought it clamps pretty good by itself, it's prevented from sliding out by the hole in the back, that's perfectly placed for the camera, speaker and flash, and the camera kinda locks the device inside the case.. it's all very smart designed for such a simple case.
I'm using the same case.... seemed v tight to start. actually it's a perfect fit, and I mean perfect... and the clip is secure without being over-tight. I'm amazed at the precision, but, being leather, i can believe that there may be variation & some may not be as good a fit??
I just received mine and I am loving it. The original pouch was always a hassle to take the phone out and it was a two handed operation. Now I can quickly flip open and close the case with one hand. There seems to be two variations of this case. When mine arrived I was surprised to see it was trimmed with grey stitching. The web site I ordered it from had picture of it with Yellow stitching similar to the original pouch.

Have tried 5 different ones...this by far is the best of the bunch I've tried. I may end up grabbing a second case from them...the Standing / Easel cases look good as well. Might get one to swap out as need arises to go hands free, etc.
I've ordered a flip case from JanoEdge. I figured even if I don't use the stand I'ld prefer to flip the top cover over rather than bending it back with the book style. I like how it protects the frame, I don't have a skin on mine.
Can't wait, I don't have a proper cover for my nook color, been using makeshift ones. These look great!
Do these cases have the little bit of a cutout / opened up rectangle that the B&N cases have so you can hear the speaker better?

They do, but with the flip cases the stand covers it when it's snapped close.

Ok. How bad is the sound deadening from the stand? I'd love a stand up case but I would like to be able to hear the Nook speaker if I want to hear something. So far there seems to be this one and the Roocase that seem to do the trick, and the roocase lacks a cutout at all.

I have read that it doesn't distort the sound, but wont know for sure till I get it. Can't remember where I read it, was searching around a few different places on the net for views of these cases. Can reply when I get mine, within a week or two I think (international shipping), unless someone else who has one answers in the mean time.
I debated between this and the Roocase. Went with this one via Amazon with some GCs. $33 AC. Went with the JavoEdge Editor Flip.
Ordered a Flip for myself as well. Don't know when it'll show up though, due to the weather in the midwest. It'll need to travel through much of that to get to me in Michigan. Can't wait for it though. I've resorted to carrying the NC around in the box it came in so that I can bring it to class with me!

Using the stand case on my wife's NC...minimal sound distortion. It actually helps redirect the sound toward you in a way.

I'm pretty happy with the JavoEdge editor. Magnetic clasp is nice, the sound is fine thanks to the hole cut in the case. All ports not blocked which is good. When you fold the top back, it does muffle the sound a bit more, but it works great sitting up and with the top flipped up (not folded behind it).
I am interested with this case as well. Can someone post an image of this flip case folded open (side view). I would like to know how thick it is with the stand folded.
Thanks.
I'm also interested, but am wondering how sturdy the covermaterial is:
will it protect the screen well enough if it e.g. fals on a stone/corner (and the obstruction hits the screen first)
is it more like hard plastic, or more like soft fabric (which will dammage the screen when it falls)
does it come with a screen protector, my screen is a fingerprint magnet
I have the same case (tweed version) and honestly don't like it at all. Functionally it's fine, but I hate how the edges that wrap around the screen are just slightly too small and so they don't stay square, but instead balloon out.. Also sticking anything other than loose sheets of paper in the pocket makes it too bulky to close. I love the magnetic "latch" though.
It does offer some significant protection, however. I have dropped my Nook from 5[ish] feet onto a hardwood floor, it landed on the bottom right exposed corner, and the device was a-okay. I'm certain if I had dropped it naked, the Nook would be dead.
I just ordered the Pioneer flip case in brown from JAVOedge's site. These are some very sharp looking cases with strong reviews on Amazon. They're the only cases I found that I really liked the styling--a nice, casual faux-vintage look, neither sporty nor girly (though the Cocoa Cherry Blossom case did tempt this hetero male) and few of them look like a day-planner from 1997. They also seem to add very little bulk, and are reported to be very comfortable in the hand while still protecting the NC.
The company's site has more styles than Amazon: http://www.javoedge.com/reflexeshop...odel.do?brandId=63&modelId=1026&category=1001
And for the heck of it, because there was a "coupon code" field at check-out, I googled "JAVOedge coupon" and got 15% off! http://www.retailmenot.com/view/javoedge.com
@Bandage (OP) I don't think any of their products are "genuine leather." They make a point of advertising "animal friendly" materials, which beats rooCASE's Chinese pig-leather in my book
Didn't see one of these for the Note 2, so here we go:
The Shellster comes out of the box looking nice, very nice. Looks like it cost way more than $15-20. The case itself snaps onto the phone very, very snugly. It's on there to the point that getting it off involves so much pressure that you feel like you're going to break the phone, and it will probably drag across the volume rocker as you go. Kind of scary to do to a new phone.
The holster itself lacks and kind of clip to keep the phone in, but that's not a huge issue because of how tight a fit the cased phone is in there. It feels very snug and secure against your waist. The belt clip on the holster has a metal slider inside that allows it to prop the case up as a holster in either landscape or portrait orientation. It's a very nice touch. The belt clip can be rotated along a 180-degree axis to fit the phone more comfortably to your waist--a big help when your phone has a 5.5-inch screen!
All that said, there are some very real problems with it. The case does not have any protection along the top of bottom of the phone. The holster does, as it extends slightly above the top and has a plastic loop on the bottom for the device to rest in, but not the case. The case does have a raised bezel, but not by much. Given all that, I do not believe that the Amzer Shellster offers much in the way of protection in a fall.
The second big issue, and the reason mine is being returned, is poor build quality. Earlier today, less then three days worth of use on the case, I bent over to pick something up. I am not a big guy; bending over shouldn't generate a ton of stress. The holster was aligned so that it rested horizontally along my side, as opposed to resting straight up and down. As I bent over, I heard a snap, and the holster had fallen off and hit the concrete floor of my garage, with the belt clip still on my waist. Luckily, my phone was out of the holster at the time, so there was no damage. All the same, a product breaking under normal conditions three days after getting your phone just stinks of terrible build quality to me. Because of that, I can't recommend the Amzer Shellster case to anyone. Poke around on eBay or Amazon, and you'll find other holster-style cases for considerably less money. They might be of similar quality, but at least you're only breaking $8-10 instead of $20, right?
Pictures attached:
1. Phone lying on its back, case attached. See the thin strips on the side? That's the case.
2. Back of phone, bottom. Access to the S Pen remains easy.
3. Back of phone, top. Nice, raised case protects the camera and LED.
4. Top of phone. Shows the complete lack of protection up there, as well as how little of the case is up front to keep the screen from being damaged while lying face-first.
5. Damage to the holster itself, with the belt clip that popped off.
Thanks for sharing. I thought about getting one of these, but I could see that it lacked protection for the top and bottom of the phone (based on YouTube videos for other phones). Plus, as you mentioned, the hard plastic cases have the tendency to scratch phones, especially when removing them. Thanks again.
I completely agree with you in your review. I have used only seidio cases and holsters on my past 5 devices. Unfortunately, they just were not ready and shipping and I did not trust this giant phone to being in my pocket bare. I ordered the amzer case and holster and was able to get it this past week.
First thing I noticed off the bat was how tight an initial fit it was getting the case onto the phone. Was afraid I was going to crack the case or damage the phone. I was very unimpressed with the back texture of the case. It is waaaay to slick for my taste. Compared to the bare plastic of the phone, it feels like it wants to slip out of my hand holding it one handed. As you stated, there is NO protection on the corners of the phone. Top or bottom. A fall from any height that lands on a corner will have nothing protecting it.
I also noticed a huge amount of flex in the belt holder. it is made of very thin/cheap plastic. Trying to quickly take the phone in and out of the holder is more of a two handed job. Sadly, I am returning it and getting the seidio. They are finally in stock.
My advice, avoid the case. While it is inexpensive, it just will not do a good job of protecting the phone and the belt clip is just about useless.
Damm I just ordered this from expansys 2 days ago.. waiting for it to come now.. Wish I would have seen this before.. To late now.. I had this case for my Galaxy Nexus and I was happy.. That is the reason I reordered it.. Well I guess I will see what happens when I get here
Edit: got the case yesterday. I like it.for 15 bucks you can't beat it
removing Amzer Shellster case
Can you explain describe how to remove this case frome Note 2
Good review and good info. Looks like one to pass up.
I have this case since a holster case is a MUST on my list. And I do agree with OP with his concern (my clip also comes off one time but I can re-attach it without problem). But the first issue could be resolve with using another case with the holster (I did the same thing with my Note 1). Currently, I am using this Cruzerlite case with the holster without problem (a bit tight but get the work done). Therefore, it's not that bad as a cheap solution until I found better alternative.

Slide a fingernail between the case and the side of the phone at a corner (power button side is "easiest"), force the two apart. It honestly feels like you're going to break the phone in half.
Very good, if not best case I ever owned of this type. Very smooth edges, a lot of small details, grainy feeling comparable to a macbook.
Gray fits perfectly titanium gray note 2.
Additional buttons work like a charm with a good travel and subtle click.
Adds 1,5-2 mm of thickness and 3mm of height and width to the device, 15 grams gain is imperceptible.
No antenna radio or NFC issues.
The phone wiggles a very very small bit inside of it but you can tuck it to perfection by just adding a little more adesive spacer tape (than what it's delivered with) to the inside of the bumper.
Looks quite nice, i like the idea of having a heavy metal band around the phone.
Makes the phone look even sturdier and stronger.
I´d be glad if you could answer a few questions about it.
Do the buttons have a "clicky" feeling when you press them?
And how easily does the bumper´s front part slide into place and accordingly goes off when you want to remove the case? Does it rattle when the bumper is on the phone i.e. is the sliding mechanism firm when closed?
And finally, could you link us to the page where you´ve bought this piece?
Thank you
Looks like this one off fleabay...

Yes there is a subtle clicking sound that is very nice to know if you actually pressed it right.
It slides very well and won't scratch if you clean off the dust before removing or putting the case, but as I said you may want to add one or two rubber bands over the one who are already inside so that the phone doesnt move at all.
I ordered the same one off eBay and I hope you don't mind me putting in my two cents.
The adhesive tape on the inside was actually more than enough for me. If anything I had to push down on the phone so the front would slide over the screen. That being said mine fit perfectly. So much so that I probably wouldn't have it on without a screen protector on. The part that slides over the phone is bare aluminum. But I guess the fit of it is going to vary, especially considering it's easiest to find on eBay.
The buttons on the case IMO improve the feeling of the volume and power buttons. There is a very satisfying click when pressed.
The size of it is a tiny bit more than I'd like. I don't think most people would mind but I'm ultra minimalist; I'm now just using a BodyGuardz skin. But probably the best thing about this bumper is that it keeps the front and back of the phone off of surfaces. Even more importantly the back is spaced perfectly enough that even the "bump" of the camera is elevated.
The hole cutouts are all there for mics, USB, and headphone. The main issue I'm having is the headphone jack hole is a bit too small for some of my headphones/speakers. Other than that they're all machined perfectly. The sides are extremely flat and smooth so if the phone is lying on a table it can sometimes be a little difficult to pick up.
A lot can be said of the sturdiness of this case. I have NO doubt that it will protect the edges of the phone. Even without the phone inside the case it resists bending and twisting even with a fair bit of force.
Sorry if I hijacked your thread a little bit xp
Thats a weapon!

which one did you get I see on amazon some people are displeased with the usb and headphone port. I want to get the blue one. The ones I see on amazon dont appear to have the phone raised when sitting on a flat surface.
I just ordered one from here http://www.tmart.com/Aluminium-Metal-Bumper-Case-for-Samsung-N7100-GALAXY-Note2-Gray_p166896.html
Only 10.99 a pop with free shipping.

Just received mine in the mail that I ordered from ebay. Initial thoughts...it does add a little bulk (to be expected) but overall VERY happy with the bumper. No noticeable difference in signal and it feels very sturdy in hand like it could take several drops without damaging the phone. Also the buttons have a clicky feel like the OP stated and it just enhances the bumper even more IMO.
No issues with any of the cutouts but will say that the s-pen cutout feels awkward. I can pull the pen out fine but putting it back in is the awkward part. Because of the cutout, I have to use my thumbnail to make sure it feels like the pen is completely attached again.
I'll post some pictures later but overall satisfied with the case. Here's the link to the one I bought..... ebay bumper. I bought my for $17.98 including shipping but noticed that the seller immediately raised the exact same bumper to $67.98 after I bought mine.

Looks nice
Looks pretty sweet i'm starting to feel jealous of that grey phone (got it in white) I'm thinking of buying one but i'm not sure if it will protect the phone, my biggest concern is the screen not cracking
Do you guys think it will survive a few falls?
I'm rocking a black aluminum on a white phone and it looks pretty sexy. I do think that it would protect against a fall or two. Same coverage as a TPU case just the back is exposed. I figure that I can get a replacement back cover if needed.

I have a silver one I don't need. It felt good but like the other poster kind of bulky for my tastes. Anyone want it pm me.
I have this in silver for my white Note and I love it. I have no wiggle. The only comment I'd have is that the headphone hole isn't big enough for most headphone jacks. The jack on the headphones that come with the phone works, but almost all others don't. Thinking about taking a drill bit to it. I've dropped it twice from about 2 feet, no scratches or problems.
I will say that it doesn't help the phone be more easily held (doesn't put any texture on the back) but then again it's nice that it's easy to get out of the pocket...

Three words....Heavy as f**k. I've got one, you don't realise till you take it out, and yes, the little weight on the bumper is a lot when you compare with/without it on. I'm still sing it though, saved my phone about 10+ times in the last month.
Well, I know that not that many people are probably going to be buying an original Note anymore (especially the T-Mobile version, even though I just got mine a few days ago). But I just wanted to give a heads up on a case that I bought which I really like. Since there's no accessories section in this forum, I'm just gonna post it here. I don't have pics, sorry.
It's the Yoobao Executive Leather Folio (link below). I was looking for a case that wasn't one of those dinky rubber/tpu things. I bought my Note on Craigslist and it actually came with one of those. I took it off immediately. I wanted something like the Samsung Flip Cover, but those didn't look like they gave much protection to the phone, especially for the sides and corners. I can't remember exactly how I found the Yoobao case (probably used my good friend Google), but when I saw that you actually slid the phone into the case, I thought I would give it a try.
The shipping on this was amazing. I ordered it on Saturday night around 10:30pm, got it on Monday morning. Anyway, I slid the phone in and I love it. The leather feels and smells nice. It is as thin as they say it is on their site. All of the major cutouts (usb, power, sound, headphone, S-pen) are perfectly placed. The only one that are a little off are the top front call speaker and front camera, and the flash. They're not way off, but they could have been measured a bit better.
The case has a magnetic closure for the flip, which works well. It's not the strongest, but it doesn't flap open. Plus that helps for when I want to open the flip with one hand. The thing I like most about the case is the fact that it really does protect the phone completely. Many of us have learned that dropping a phone on a corner is the way to get the most damage. The corners and sides of this case are where the leather is stitched together, so it give those areas extra protection. If I drop it on the corner, it just hits stiff leather. Kinda like a shock absorber.
One thing I was unsure about, because I couldn't tell from the pics/video on their site, was if the case had one of those plastic screen protectors built in. I hate those. They always get dirt underneath and you're constantly taking the phone out to clean the plastic off. Well, this one does not have one of those. It's just the leather case with a cutout where the screen goes. It came with a separate screen protector, which I haven't tried, so I don't know if it fits or not. But it's nice that they threw that in.
So finally, I am very happy with my new case. My only regret is that I was debating between the red and the black and I got the black. Now I think I should have gotten the red.
If anything changes (like if the stitching starts to come apart), I will provide an update to this review.

Thanks for the heads up!
So I needed a case for my S6 edge as I am rather active during the day and while I have never dropped a phone, I didnt want to have an oops moment adn drop this one and break it. Bought a case from Speigen which normally has good reviews... but the case seemed like it was made about 1mm to long and it constantly bugged me that my phone moved around in it a little. But me being cheap and realizing that the case while annoying protected my phone just fine, never replaced it.
Then I got my hands on the RooCase... First impression was seemed decent, about on par with my other case, but seriously how different could it be? Boy was I about to get an eye opener...
Installation: the fit was TIGHT! I actually used a micro screwdriver to help the edges over the phones power and volume buttons. I didn't really need to I found out but as I said this case fits good and tight and I hate putting a lot of side load on small switches and buttons. once on the phone the case is nice and firm. No wiggle at all. Much better than my old case. The only issue I had with installation was that the edge of the case pushed my film style screen protector up and caused it to bubble a bit in a couple spots. this was alleviated with my micro screwdriver gently lifting the edge of the case and using a guitar pick to smooth the bubble out before releasing the case edge back down. If you installed a screen protector and it is off center you may need to watch out for this. I don't blame the case for this, but just giving heads up.
Feel: I'm not going to get into the technical manes and such, and for that I apologize, but here are my impressions of the case in hand. the back of the case is a lightly textured hard plastic. the top and bottom edge of the back is a rubbery type material. the sides are the same plastic as the back of the case, but with rubber inserts down the middle. I found that the back is a little slick and slides a touch in my hand, but with the rubbery top and bottom it really isn't an issue. I would love to see some sort of rubbery addition or something to the back to aid in anti-slip if I could have everything I wanted... the rubber inserts on the sides, while rather thin, do a wonderful job of adding just enough grip to the device. In the hand the case feels great. No sharp edges, just enough tactile feel, nad good and solid.
Design: The case has small protrusions on the back so that when you lay it down the Camera and such is well protected. these protrusions are formed i the rubbery top and bottom parts and I found that they also do a wonderful job of keeping the device from sliding around on smooth surfaces. the top and bottom edges of the front are also protruding past the device protecting the screen and again keeping the device from sliding, albeit it will slide just a bit easier than the back.
the openings are all well shaped and cut out to perfectly line up with the phones charging, speaker,headphone jack and what ever the two openings on the top of the phone are... Cant remember what they are right now, Oh well...
on the outer edges of the corners there is a larger protrusion of rubber that will protect the phone if dropped on the corners. I don't feel like dropping my phone to test this, but they seem well designed and placed. large enough to add extra protection, but still small enough to flow with the case and phones lines perfectly.
My favorite part of the case design is the buttons. I really love the buttons on this case. Most cases have marks, or molded bumps for the buttons. This case has real, actual freaking metallic buttons! They actually feel better than the phones stock buttons. the power button has two vertical lines cut into the face of it and in the dark it is so easy to slide my finger down the side of the case until I feel that and I know instantly my finger is o the button to either turn on or off the screen or what ever Im trying to do. the volume button is a nicely prominent as well with a nice line cut in the middle to differentiate between up and down. again, very simple and easy to feel with your finger to adjust volume. the buttons are nice and prominent, but still low profile enough to not be a bother. the corner bumpers I mentioned earlier are just a touch wider than the buttons are, so again, everything flows very well.
Protection: well... the case is great. I work in Law Enforcement. we do all sorts of active training adn what not and because of my unit I am always on call so I have to keep my phone with me at all times. I had it in my pocket the other day and my phone took two hits from simunition... the screen was destroyed. instantly and catastrophically. so I figured why not, the phone was already destroyed and going to be replaced... So I set the phone up with the case facing out and hit it a few times with the simunition rounds. the marks on the case wiped right off, and when I puled the case off the phone was undamaged. the case protected the back glass perfectly.
Conclusion: I love this case. The color, fit, finish, details such as the buttons and the level of protection it affords without becoming obtrusive such as Otterbox or lifeproof are exactly what I want and expect in a case. It looks great on my phone, feels great in my hand, slides in and out of my pocket easily with out snagging. I would highly recommend looking into this case if your in the market for one.
Ill add pictures of it later, Im at work right now and cant post them from here.

Thank you for your amazing and thorough review, we're happy to hear that you enjoyed our case! We definitely try to go for designs that are stylish all while withstanding getting hit with simunition. That's why we call it our Exec Tough case, because if it can't withstand getting shot at then what is a case good for, am I right? We're eager to see pictures, let us know when you have them up and once again, thank you for the review!
