I have this case. first of all I paid $22 for it and second, i didnt notice anything you mentioned on my phone...can you upload pics to show us?
Meh...I too have this case and none of the chipping. Pics would be great if you could.
you got ripped off. It's 20 bux
i want this case. how is the belt clip on it? does it work good? did you get it at your local tmobile store?
I don't own one of these cases, but I'd suggest you take a look at the two "knobs" that appear to be contacting the back of your case, and see if they either have sharp edges that are scratching or some type of glue/epoxy that might be reacting with and chipping your phone. As the battery door appears to be metallic in composition, your problem might be due to some type of chemical reaction.
Nah, it's definitely from the stand. I have that same case and I'm glad I clicked on this thread. Mine hasn't gotten there yet, but after reading this I noticed a tiny bit of rubbing. I'm gonna put a piece of tape over it. Thanks for the heads up.
No Problem
like i said i love this case we will see what body glove has to say tommrow and and btw i looked at my recipt and forgot that i bought somtimg else when i got it it was only 20 dollars sorry for the foul up
I bought this case before and from taking off a couple of times i now how scratches on the sides of my battery cover now... Stopped using this case after couple of days
Bought this case on launch day with the phone and dont have any damage from using the case.
Got a New Cover
Ok so after many customer service agents and long hold times i called body glove first then they gave me a number to call corporate after pretty much blowing me off asking for recipets they said they would send a claim form in the mail like any uses that anymore then i called t-mobile customer service which i do love because the people are so friendly and helpful they gave me the number to HTC which i called and got sent all over the place there (i still cant figure out why i had to call HTC about a body glove case that T-MO sold??) then i got tired of all of the running around and went to a local t-mo store the girl changed out my battery cover for a new one great i am so happy about that but what about the body case i asked she says if you do not have the recipet there's nothing i can do so i then asked just to trade it out and again no recipet no trade fine i said thank you and was very polite because she took care of my phone which is all i care about so the conclusion i have a good battery back but not new case guess ill just have to stick with that crappy rubber case that came with it till i can get my phone skinned over all im happy...
Please spread those periods of ellipsis throughout your post next time...jesus that was hard to read!
Thanks for providing your experience with this case. I was thinking of getting this one but after seeing this gonna have to think twice about it. So which case would be the most efficient?

Same here.
I thought it didn't scratch my phone either until about 2 days ago. The scratch is TINY but noticeable when looking for it.
But then again it seems it couldn't have been the case because its about 1/4 inch on top of the E in the SENSE part.
Doesn't bother me though since it's always in the case. If I get bored I'll polish it one day...

so your saying you will pay to damage your phone? Please give me an address and ill list my price to damage your phone and i'll put it in a case for you also
my wife and i both have this case, all good on our front. no scratches or such.
Just like everyone else,
I bought this case with the phone and never had a problem like you described. I rather like this case if only I didn't have to take it off every time I had to pull battery.
i bought this case from day one and not a single issue with it. I love it and if it wasn't for this case i would have a cracked screen on it(again). the one day i let my spouse use it to try it out was the day the phone fell and the screen cracked. I have dropped it from higher ground with the body glove case and phone was untouched but yet the day i don't have the case i drop it from knee high bench and screen cracks. wow. i trust and love this case. sorry to hear you guys are having this problem.
I have the EXACT same problem... I'm glad you went ahead and showed everyone. My problem is that I have 2 of the same case.... and I'm not in US for the next 3 months. So I figured I need to glue some sort of foam at the kickstand so it doesn't do it.
Got home from work to find my norève leather case for the Tab in the mail. If you've never seen one, it's this one: http://www.gearzap.com/noreve-tradition-leather-case-for-samsung-galaxy-tab.html
Fits very nicely. Snug fit, very smooth high quality leather, good sewing and the flip-out stand seems very stable. Looks quite neat, too. I'm positively impressed.
me too, excelent quality.
Thanks for the review rapax, I'm ready to get one now
They just sent me an email saying my order status has been changed to "awaiting arrivals"... what the hell does that mean?
Anyone know if there are other cases available? Here in Russia its impossible to even contact noreve - their site is managed by a third party.
EDIT: They just told me it would be three weeks before they shipped. Bummer.

Did you order different color from black???
i then sent them a letter asking if they had any other colors... sorry no was the reply
as far as i can tell they are the only retailer in russia selling a case for the tab - but the only stock they have will arrive in three weeks
probably just a direct translation of the global site
Jesus wept! 54 quid?!?
I've never used a smiley in my life, but
Hi there.
Mine arrived today, and it isn't the same model as mentioned in the first post of this topic.
The closure isn't magnetic on mine, replaced by a strong snap fastener.
The stand has changed. It's a very thin yet strong metal part that "sticks" well to the case thanks to 2 magnetic points, see how it works on the pics attached.
The "Quality boxed packaging" isn't the same quality as my past norêve products: a simple soft white cardboard packaging with black norêve logo replaced the usual navy blue/silver logo gift box.
Great leather and build quality, the minimum for that price.
Used to prefer Noreve previously but they don't wear well. . . The magnetic clasp part was the first to go, the button fell off..then the whole clasp and the top leather flap where it used to bend kind of wore out...shoddy construction...happened with both my cases...so I stoppedbordering it...

Happy with mine. . .
Ordered 3 days before christmas. . .arrived 10 am today.. .perfect fit. . Good leather quality. . Value for money absolutely fine. . Will be interesting tosee how it looks in a few weeks of daily use.
Can someone please let me know how much the Noreve case sells for in US dollars? Thanks so much in advance!

Just Google/Bing for the current exchange rate, it changes all the time. A good rough estimate is about $1.6 to the £. So really rough and going high if it's £60 it'd be $96, and I'd imagine a little more for shipping to the US than whatever the site quotes.
This is the Roo case with the kick stand, bought from a seller on amazon. I just wanted to warn anyone who is thinking about getting this case. My experience with both the seller and the case is horrible.
First, the seller does not reply unless you threaten them with a file claim and negative reviews. My first email went completely ignored. My case was past due and the tracking number was invalid, i'm guessing they forgot or ran out. Anyways then they replied to my second email with its lost somewhere but that they will upgrade to priority mail when they receive it.
Then i finally got the case. First i gotta say the viewing angles are great. Unfortunately the case is loose and the top is not covered when the case is open. At first i didn't think this was a problem until i accidentally picked it up by the wrong end this morning. The result: my nc fell, while i was in the kitchen, on the tile floor. There are now scratches on both top connor of my nc. The good news is that the nook is pretty sturdy, everything still works at least.
Anyways i just wanted to post my review here first. I will most likely review on amazon too.

I have this as well, and entirely the other experience. I dislike the non closed top, but havent had it fall out, ever. it is easy enough to fix too.
Hmmm I'm considering this case. Thanks for the review.
I am surprised at the review here. I had no problems contacting the seller about not gettng my case. Not only did our correspondence start with email, with an immdiate response with no threats, and when I followed up via phone I reached a human immdiately. It seems like Amazon was accepting orders beyond the sellers supply. Unfortunately the sellers system was set to assign shipping info automatically thus I got a shippng confirmation when my item wasn't shipped.
I love my RooCase! I LOVE the many multiple angles and I think it fits snuggly in the case. Despite the lack of cover at the top when opened my very clutzy self and my almost two year old son have yet to get it out the case despite our many accidents! I have easy access to all buttons on the sides; power and volume. I like how I can either readit propped on a table or while lying down on my back in bed.
I find the magnet quite strong. When I don’t want to use the multi angled stand it turns into a not so bulky case for simple hand holding or laying down on my lap or table.
I take my NC everywhere! This case holds up to the rough daily wear I give it.
I will admit sound is slightly muted with no cut out in the back. This was tested with B&N read to me book Go, Dog Go. I was dissappointed it required manual page turns versus automatic when it gets to the end of the page. Since I didn't buy the NC for its sound quality properties I am not really considering this an issue with the NC or the RooCase.
In conclusion, I highly recommend this case!

I was thinking about getting that case but since reading your review I think I might pass and continue my search.
Just to second this I also had a terrible experience with the seller and filed a complaint with Amazon. They claimed the package shipped on one date, charged my credit card and did not actually ship it for several weeks. They never replied to my email. If you look at the seller feedback the main complaints are about them failing to ship. The case itself is ok (nothing special and makes the nook color a lot bulkier) but the seller does not appear to be trust worthy.
Yes that was my main complaint with the seller. They send out an email that the item was shipped, with an invalid tracking number, and then lied that it was "lost somewhere" when you contact them to ask where your item was. They should have just truthfully told that the item was out of stock and ask you to wait.
I've read differing reviews on the fit of this case. Personal experience says the case is too loose but other reviews has stated that it was fine. If it helps any, I ordered the grey case.
I bought this case and had a simlar experience. I purchased the case on Jan 20 with an estimated delivery date of Jan 27-Feb 1. The item didn't "ship" until Jan. 28. I checked it using the tracking number on Feb 5th and it had made it all the way to the Anaheim, CA post office (the company is located in Chino, CA) travelling an impressive 25 miles in that time. It was on this day that I wrote my letter to the seller. I still have yet to receive a response from the company, but I finally did recently receive the case. The case itself is actually pretty cool. I find it solidly built, and convenient. I noticed, as was previously noted, that when open there is nothing to block the nook from sliding out if the case is held upside down, so I will probably get some sort of leather strip and velcro to keep it in. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
In summation case = good, seller = really bad.

I have a similar case with open top. Here's how I secured mine, required punching 3 holes, bit of stretchy cord + thin charm.
Sorry about links, it won't let me post external links until I have 8 posts, ugh.

The charm is used like a button which fits through the hole punched in back cover.
I have the roocase as well and my experience is similar. I got shipping info immediately that was invalid and i had to contact the seller. They gave me the free upgraded shipping and i had my case a few days later.
I really like the case. Fits snugly and feels great. I highly recommend it if you can stand the wait for shipping.

Glad I saw this, I was thinking of buying one of these cases.
They seem to be doing Fulfillment by Amazon now, maybe that will help their shipping woes.

Indeed- I took a gamble and ordered this case on Sunday, February 20th. With my Amazon Prime shipping benefits, it arrived today- Tuesday, February 22nd.
Whew!
Wow. Wish I would have read this and or waited til Amazon took over the shipping duties. I ordered mine on the 14th and it is still preparing to ship. I sent an email to the seller today. I have Amazon Prime as well. Yay me.
interesting.
Got same case, only thing i dislike about it is the fact that the speaker is blocked. Nothing a lil boxcutter knife wont fix but still, could have been better.
My experience has been good. Ordered the case, got it about 5 days later.
Overall, I like the case. Yeah, I think they should have closed the top so the device can't fall out, but it's not that big of a deal.
The case is super useful. Love that you can set it up at any angle on a table and read. Leather is nice too. Recommended.
I was looking into getting this case. Right now I have the smoke grey case from B&N.
Does this have slots to store items, like SD cards and such? And can they potential fall out when the stand is being used?
Hi Guys,
Thinking of getting this case as well .... but found that the stand is for portrait. True?
How do you have your NC on the landscape format and standing and tilted - I mean if you are watching videos, it would be in landscape, right?
Is there any other alternatives? So far, the folio types open side way (not flip) but user feedback that the straps at the top is covering the power and volume button.
hi guys anyone has a spare back cover with the leather all worned that looks ugly and no longer used. but the plastic is in good condition. mine just broke 2 small leads or what ever they are called that little plastic thing that snaps into phone and hold it.
i usually removed the leather so it leather is missing or missing piece or worned. its okey ill remove it anyways.
it will be sent to california address. my parents will be there.
how much and how could i pay for it.?
thanks
Look on Amazon
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_...rid=1Y0LGXLFQ9QH6&rh=i:aps,k:lg+g4+back+cover
There are also replacement back covers that have wireless charging built in. Can't remember where I got mine.

thanks i will. thing is ive seen them a while ago, but cheapest was from hong kong dint have time to wait that long. i dont want leather i dont like leather.
Bought the T-Mobile S6 yesterday and went looking for the keyboard case. The store did not have it.
I noticed all the best buy stores in my area did not have it. Amamzon shows 1-3 months shipping.
Yes I can order online, but I don't see the case available in the shop Samsung app at all.
Just made me think, with all the bad reviews, maybe they are going to release an updated version.
Could just be wishful thinking..lol.

Still available on Samsung UK.
I spoke to someone on their live chat the other day who said there are currently no plans to change it.

Ahh well... Wishful thinking..?
I haven't got mine yet, I held off at first because of the long shipping delays. But the other day it was about $50 usd off on Amazon and "only" 2 weeks to ship so it's on the way now. Design looks fine to me, I think I understand the limitations enough going in but I shall find out soon.
I did just receive my Keyboard case from Samsung.US. It was on back-order for 4 weeks.
I am using this now for 1 week and it sticks really well. No issue at all. I did not have to clean the back of my tablet or anything.
I also removed it several times and it did stick really well. Also after I but it back.
I have no issue at all and am very happy with it.
Maybe they did change something?
So the Amazon delivery estimate has been saying a few months, but it was at my door within a week of ordering, so I would recommend to go ahead and place the order.
As for the case sticking, I've had no problems either. The instructions also clearly state the back needs to be stuck on and left for an hour to adhere properly, so keep that in mind. Also I would clean the surface of tablet just incase before applying unless Its brand new like when I applied mine...
I wish there was a redesign. The body case seems to un-stick randomly and it provides not protection around the sides nor does it keep the screen's edges protected with a "lip".
Otherwise, if someone would make a case that would cover at least 3 sides of the tablet and leave just enough of the side with the keyboard pin connector exposed to attach the keyboard, that would be great. Either that or that side of the tablet is a flap that can be opened to attach the keyboard.
I purchased a $6 silicon case for every day use since I mostly just use the Tab S6 at home sitting in my recliner. But, I wanted the keyboard for those times that I didn't want to swipe everything.
However, the back piece of the keyboard case just doesn't impress me since it's not an easy auto-on/auto-off in any respect. So, I've been considering getting another silicon case that I can attach the keyboard case back cover to, then cut the silicon case just enough to allow the keyboard to attach.
So, what do you guys think? Will the keyboard case back cover's stickyness adhere to silicone better than the back of the tablet?

Samsung will never have the integrity to do a redesign for a product accessory, especially a device in their tablet lineup that they don't give two ****s about.
Hello ,
I have the book cover Galaxy Tab S6 by Samsung , it's perfect , finally ! I don't buy cover Samsung for my Tab S4 , Spen outside , it's a big problem ! I buy on Amazon a simple cover to have Spen inside , it's better to go outside with my Tab S4.
