Ordered a leather case of ebay for £8.99 its basic but i do think its better than the cloth one you get with it

Ah very nice. I would interested in a write up of your opinion and images with the Streak in the case when you get it, if not too much trouble.
I need to purchase one pretty soon if the US release indeed is July 14th.
.
BAD EXPERIENCE with the seller.
I order this one on 22/6, havent received it. I sent a couple of email to the seller, and wanted to return the item if he had not sent it yet. He just closed my return case and reported to ebay that he dealt with me through email, the thing he never did.
I will wait a couple of day more before opening a dispute through paypal and report to ebay
The one listed above? The case isnt available until the 3rd July (as its says in the listing) so you wouldn't have got it. Since the 3rd was Saturday id have expected delivery about Wednesday this week.
I purchased the case on 22/6 which saved it was available on 23/6, he also marked it as despatched on that day. That's why I am so upset right now with the seller attitude
I ordered one of the super trader ones yesterday, its just been shipped, should be here in the morning.
Guess it will take up a bit less space than the oakley hard case I've been using to transport the streak this weekend..

this one might be good. they custom make it for you
$bay:
design your own case
have a look at some of the comments on the "easecase" on xda..
especially the HD2 forum, some people weren't that impressed with them
I'm presuming Noreve will come out with a case at some point for the streak, their cases are really good, I've been really happy with my Hd2 one.
My HD2 easecase is really nice. It fits perfectly and is well made. Id say the leather isnt high end quality, and does look fake, but its been durable.
Ive seen some of those so call high end cases that cost £50+ and frankly they look like rubbish. Good leather, but not so well made or fitting.

I think you have given him more than enough time. REPORT before he skips town !!
I got my case from superetrader, via the ebay store, the link above this morning having ordered it over the weekend.
I suggest dropping them a line via their online shop, they have been pretty responsive in the past. I've never had an issue with them
Anyway the case isn't too bad, theres a recess for the streak and a cover held in place with two magnets. Not certain what effect those magnets will have on the screen or the compass. But we'll see..
Its not a tight fit, with the cover open, so it's pretty easy to get the streak out. It's a pity the internal compartment isn't see through so you can see the screen without moving it from the case. But overall it should do the job of protecting it while its in my bag.

Whoa thank you very much for doing this! A huge help.
- Do you think it would be easy to cut off the belt clip?
- Can you fit it in your pocket?
- Does the flap have magnets in it?
- Does the flap bother you?
For me personally, I think the flap would be very bothersome. I would prefer just a simple slide out.
Thanks again

You're welcome
belt clip is held on buy a stud so should be able to take it off but i wanted one on
it fits in my pocket OK but would fit better with no belt clip
the flap has two magnets on it and no it does not bother me i dare say in a few months ebay will be full of accessories
The flap is big but i do think it makes the pouch more damage proof if you know what i mean

hi guys,
as we know, cases for the streak are few and far between right now. the only really decent ones are these: easecase so, i have contacted this seller with a case idea in mind and given the seller the link to this thread. so heres what would help this case idea be made. even if you are a casual troller or a regular poster, please comment in this thread so that the seller can see there is a demand for this type of case that way we get a awesome case and the seller gets a client base without much effort at all. here is the case idea.
a simple but strong leather holster type case with no flap:
soft leather holster
all correspondence will go in here:
hi,
im a member of various dell streak forums/sites and your items keep cropping however, there is a distinct lack of cases for the streak and i would like to ask if there is a way you could make a leather holster type case as the ones you offer make the big streak seem even bigger. the type of case i have in mind is something like this:
*case link as above*
this would be perfect for the dell streak as it would allow easy access to the device without having it seem like a brick on your waist. from a buisness prospective because of the lack of cases for the streak you could get in before the rush with a case form factor that would be very popular.
thank you very much for your time and i hope to hear from you soon.

I would be extremly interested. Enough to buy one!
I had previously sent easecase this message:
I was interested in purchasing a leather case. I

this style but for the Dell Streak/Mini 5.

5 cases have a 'flip over cover'.

I emailed them and shortly I will be ordering one.
EDIT:
I just purchased this one
Gotta be honest .....not blowing my skirt up...i got one ( wallet stylee ) for 8 quid delivered off of ebay, its really good, also fits really well with the form fit case on there as well, perfectly in-fact....
I saw the ad for the d3 easecase on ebay but was hesistant because it looked like hard to pull the streak from the pouch. I am currently using krusell for my htc hd and it has got like a hole at the bottom where you can use finger to push it out of the case rather than having to pinch it out of it, esp if the flap is in the way....so easecase, would you do somethin like that?

Hey Everyone, I was goofing around Amazon and came across this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=470938631&pf_rd_i=507846
So I tought I would let everyone know! It is a cool looking carbon skin,with a screen protector for $15... My only concern is that it looks like it is one big skin on the back so that could be problematic.

Ordered one of these on 8/16. Got dilivery notice right away with USPS tracking number.
USPS tracking said "Status: Electronic Shipping Info Received" and has never changed.
Waited checking tracking daily and hoping.
Late on 8/27 got an e-mail from amazon telling me my order was being refunded "Due to customers request." I never requested a refund. I wanted the product.
Checked out the companies feed back and found out I am not the only one that happened to. E-mailed to see what is going on, but others say I will never hear from them.
Time to look for other solutions.
Same thing happened to me.

i got this from amazon on friday and put it on no pics it does add some depth to the streak and scratch protection. I just cant wait for the otterbox commuter to come out. I heard a tell on another forum that they are listed under dell premier logins with a 2 week backlog. i cant confirm that yet because my shipping person is out on vacation for the week.

That link was a surprise . . That is my Streak . . my pictures . . After that I got the Otterbox, the $19 one .. Took off the skin and put on the Otterbox .. HATED IT [don't like the way it feels to the touch, I am constantly picking lint off of it..] and I have since purchased another skin. I bought the clear one .. Sort of wish I bought the one in the picture again but the clear skin hasn't arrived yet. Maybe I will like it. I like the skinomi screen protector better than the one that comes with the otterbox. diane
You should try the otterbox communter if you don't like the feel of the impact. The communter has a hard shell.

I got this case-

and this screen protector-
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008EO263I/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01
They'll both be here Monday, which is when my Nexus 7 (16 GB) will be delivered too. I have and have had products from both Moko and ArmorShield, and both are excellent quality.
I think I'm going to buy that case. For $6.99, it will hold me over until a better one comes around. I don't like it for permanent use.
I do want a screen protector too, but I only want the non-spray self-sticking (static cling?) ones. I bought one of those for my wife's iPad and it worked great. I bought a spray-and-stick one for my SGT8.9, and it sucked (Zag).

Well, MoKo makes good stuff, it should last a while, I think they are just doing the deep discount to get in on the Nexus 7 frenzy. I agree on the Zagg's, I don't like them either, but ArmorShield, Skinomi and BodyGuardz are all good ones, they all make dry apply and wet apply. I usually go for dry apply on phones, like my Galaxy Note i717, but on bigger things like tablets the wet apply ones are easier to install and work with, at least for me. The ArmorShield's are really thin, don't yellow and are not sticky like the Zagg's, which is one reason why I dislike Zaggs too.
Just ordered that case as well. Can't beat that price with prime shipping.

I ordered the case a few days ago and already got it. It's actually quite nice and more indicative of its real price and not the $7 I paid for it.
I ordered a moko one that has the magnetic sleep/wake function. Sort of a gamble because there is only one pic, but it looks like it can function as a stand as well.

Right on! I have been pretty impressed with their stuff, Skinomi's are a little sticky, and Zagg's are ultra sticky of course. With the ArmorShields, the little imperfections will settle out over the next couple of days, and if for some reason it goes crazy, they will just send you another set out.

I haven't checked my mail yet, lemme go see...
Update-Yep
Dear buyer:
Sorry for another intrusion but we just came across this report and
thought we have to share it with you:
http://www.tomshardware.com/news/White-Nexus-7-Case-Stain-Clean-Black-Nexus-7,16302.html
With the same porous plastic material, we are concerned that the black
back on the retail version could also be susceptible to dye to some
extend. It may be embarrassing but we have to admit that we did not
have this issue in mind when our fist batch of Nexus cases was made.
Although the case has NOT left any mark on neither of the white or
black Nexus 7 we have after a short period of normal use, we would
rather be overcautious and have more intensive tests done before we
can comfortably let you use the case, even as a temporary solution. We
definitely could not afford to have you as beta-testers on this issue
with your brand new tablets and would suggest you hold off using the
case until you get further confirmation from us or a replacement case,
hopefully within 5-7 days.You can be assured all our future shipments
will be fully compatible with Auto wake/sleep feature and free of any
staining problems guaranteed. You will get to choose any style you
prefer from our whole selection of Nexus cases as the free
replacement.
I understand most of you will get your Nexus 7 today and I am really
sorry to disappoint you with this message but please do excise caution
if you have to use something else on your Nexus. Again, I apologize
for the inconvenience and would appreciate your understanding and
patience in this process of getting the right protection for your
Neuxs. This is what we do and we will do it right for you.
Please also let us know if you have any comments or suggestions.Thanks, Jim
WOW, I don't think I've had such good customer service, at least not that I can remember! Most companies would be like "Oh, sorry about that case we sent you last month, it probably left marks allover your device,sorry, but we can't do anything".

I know, I'm shocked too. Question: you just ordered the one case in your OP, right?
I ask because I ordered TWO cases from this seller. The one you did, plus the $12.99 smart case they came out with on Sunday. I wanted to make sure that this email was about the first case, not the second one (or both).
I am really shocked that they would have gone so far to help their customers for something that cost $6.99 shipped. I was actually going to return that case, since I got the better one, but I think I'm going to keep it just out of support of the seller.

My son decided that he wanted the WOWparts case. I posted a review on Amazon about it. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008M5SD9U/ref=oss_product
It claims to have a magnet for the sleep/wake function, but there isn't one. Also, the part that holds the device is too big vertically by just over 1/4". As a result, his Nexus 7 can slide around inside the case, making it more difficult to use. I've contacted WOWparts in case they accidentally sent us the wrong case. I'll post here again if they respond.
I'd say to avoid this one. Even if everything was right, the similar Poetic case (which I review here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1795991) is superior in every way. At the time, it was $2 cheaper to boot, although now the Poetic one is more expensive.
Would love to hear any feed back on the rotating case from WOWparts. Anyone order this?
Thanks for letting us know.

Ah, thanks for this, this was on my list of potentials.
They got back to me. Evidently it was mis-listed as having a smart cover when it doesn't. They offered to let me keep it and get a partial $5 refund. I took a them up on it. It would have cost me at least $3 to ship it back anyway. The fit still isn't the greatest, so I can't recommend it. They were quick to respond, though, so I'll give them credit for that.

From looking at the listing, it doesn't have the smart cover, if that makes a difference to you. If the Nexus 7 fits in that one like it does in the one my son got, I'd say to take a pass.

I did end up getting the rotating case from WOWparts. Although it doesn't have the smart cover - it does fit the Nexus 7 perfectly. For $10 delivered to Canada.. I would say it is a decent buy
Built-in magnetic strip enjoy more comfort it brings with a kickstand to prop up your Nexus.

Trying to understand that sentence just gave me cancer.
I am surprised no one has posted about this as of yet.
QBKing77's youtube channel has a video review of this "contraption".
Currently there is a deal where you get a free TPU case (i think thats what it is called) with the purchase of a $30 FlyGrip.
He also mentions how you get a discount by using his name at the checkout.
I am almost convinced to get one, but would like your input on this.
Check out this video where he discusses the flygrip (somewhere in there).

I just purchased one. Thanks for the tip.
Thanks for sharing, looks like a great idea
Not sure if it would add too much bulk
Pricing with shippingmmakes it quite expensive for us international buyers
I've been using it for about a week now, and haven't regretted that decision. It's definitely a must if you're using your N2 a lot with single hand. I'm still waiting for Aduro case to release their awesome kickstand case that they had for the GSIII:

And no, it doesn't add much bulk at all.

The Aduro case looks pretty neat. I might hold off to get one. Is it going to be as cheap like for the GS3? Around $15?
Man that fly grips looks pretty cool anybody get one yet? Its kind of cool how the CEO makes his own youtube video and enter acts with the customers. I just ordered one yesterday and got my shipping confirmation today. I think it will be a great addition to the GN2.

I would love to hear from you! I need someone to convince me into getting this, its just that $30 doesnt seem to worth it...
I've been on the fence with this since i saw a video review of these a few weeks ago. I am horrible about ordering things online. I search the heck out of them and then never buy anything. I really like to see things in person.
I really like the idea though. Seems like it would really make the phone more comfortable for me. I have the flip cover and i usually have one finger between it and the back of my phone which gives me a pretty secure grip but after a few minutes my poor finger starts to feel smashed back there.
Maybe i should just break down and go for it. I could use the free case for testing the mod for using a tpu case with the flip cover.
So indecisive....

Ha I felt the same way I also have the flip cover as well and thought I would give ut a shot. I needed a TPU case I have a white note so bought the white clip I figured I will look really nice on the phone once I get it I will pist some pics up and let you guys know what I think. For 29 bucks for a clip I better like it lol

Too bad they had super expensive shipping to Sweden
Sent from a big Note 2
I got one. The guy is real easy to deal with. I had to swap mine from white to black since Tmobile had no white Note2s. He did it without issue. I carried my phone for a week w/o the clip and now about a week with the clip. I find its a nice bonus. I mostly use it when I'm relaxing and holding the phone at odd angles. Its great for that, very secure. In day to day use I don't really use it since my TPU case has really good grip already.
I had my phone for almost a week before I got my flygrip. In my opinion it makes the phone much easier to use one handed. I have maybe slightly above average hands and I can reach the whole screen easier with it. The stand feature is very nice too. I have mine on a body glove and feel extremely confident I have a very secure grip on my phone when using it. Weird angle gripping is much easier as well. I would recommend one for the GNII 100%

What time curious about is how easy it is to transfer between cases or devices. I saw a video of somebody removing the FlyGrip and it looked to be some super adhesive material.
How resuable is it exactly?
Edit: Took a closer look and looks like you could grab a pack of 3 replacement adhesives. Was really excited for it despite the price since you could say it's justified with the TPU case throw in....but unfortunately the shipping code "QBKING77" is limited only to the States. Really disappointed since I'll have to pass just based on the shipping costs.

I had one on my Sensation, and am awaiting new adhesive, but I LOVE my Flygrip. Thing is simply amazing. I didn't think that I would get 30 bucks worth out of thin cheap plastic, but I've been sorely tempted to pickup a second one for my tablet. Also, they have pretty good customer support, I've called three times, and it's always the same guy that answers. I actually prefer this to the kickstand cases because of the one handed grip support. I can't text on my bike without it, especially with this phone. I'll upload a couple pictures as soon as I get my sticky backs

I just took mine off of my Sensation, and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. It took some forcing to actually begin to remove it, as it is really pretty damn strong, but once I got it separated from the old case it was simple enough to just rub the remaining residue away. It does leave a very clean rectangle on whatever case you put it on after removal lol.

So emailed FlyGrip with some questions. Response was very quick, not to mention a nice surprise with the great customer service!
" .... Additional tape provided”, are there extra adhesive tapes in each FlyGrip package? Or that we would have to buy the pack of 3 if we were interested in replacements?

Flygrip comes with (1) extra adhesive. So after you remove it, you can put the new adhesive on.* "Some" people try using the existing adhesive.* It depends on how sticky it still is.* We recommend to use a new one, but sometimes the adhesive is sticky enough to reuse.* We sell (3) packs for $2.47.

Also, a shot in the dark but I'm wondering if you do happen to have any promotions going on for international shipping (namely to Canada) as the FlyGrip was something I was immediately excited for, only to see the cost of shipping.

I asked my manager. You can USE "INTL5" as a code, to receive $5 off shipping.

Tl;dr Each FlyGrip has one extra adhesive, and use INTL5 for $5 off international shipping.

Looks great but $30 is a lot for what it is. I'll wait for the cheap eBay HK version
Love my FlyGrip. I enjoy knowing I'm not going to drop the phone, but I really purchased it because I'm an ex-EVO user and knew I'd miss the kickstand. I use it as a kickstand whenever the phone isn't in my pocket. Right now I'm using the free case that was included, but I'll take it off in a few weeks. I usually don't go for bold colors, but got the blue kickstand and a royal blue case. Nice looking.
He has lots of videos on the site to help with making a decision. Oh, no, it doesn't add bulk, it's only 1/4" deep. USA made and the packaging is very good looking, would make a great gift.
I think it's a smarter decision to look at these.
Amazon Wisefinger Options
Much cheaper, and they look more versatile.
