I'm using a leather flip case for mine that I bought from ebay

Does any one use those plastic rubber coated hard covers (like those in the picture)?
And are they any good?

i am using it...the black one...its very good. But, it's not particularly good, because if I want to put it in my pocket, it just does not go particularly smoothly, it is still silicone.But otherwise, quite good.

thanks for info..I've ordered black one today so now I have to wait..

you can find LG cases from ebay. There are plenty of types and all optimized for our model.
just look for LGT GT540 + type of case you are looking for.

Over the years have used lots of different cases and pouches, silicon, leather, velvet, hardplastic, and rubber had them all, and most where pretty crappy. But now bought a tpu (Thermoplastic Polyurethanes) case from ebay, and its just great makes the phone much more solid without loss of usability. doesnt protect the screen when in my pocket. but have a screenprotector for that. Only had to cut out a little piece around usbport so original usb cable would fit

leather type flap screen cover from Amazon two pounds seventy nine pence. Bargain...d
MY ANDROIDSKY

TPU covers are by far the best. Silicone are rubbish.

I bought a rubber/silicone one off ebay, for $5. Absolutely awesome. Covers everything that needs to be covered, and nothing that doesn't. It covers everything but screen, buttons, speaker and usb port. It has raised bumps where the volume, camera, and search buttons are so you can find them under the cover. I also got a nice thick screen protector. I can drop my phone from 10ft without any problems. Also, I live in China where there are a lot of pickpockets. The rubber case provides some resistance when it is in my pocket, which makes it alot more difficult to steal.

Got a leather case off ebay.

Pop Case and Seidio Clip
Does anyone know if the POP kickstand case will fit into the Seidio Surface holster clip??

$35 at the AT&T shop when I got mine. Seemed way too pricey so I skipped on it. Turns out they're still pretty expensive on eBay. That's too bad. I'll probably end up getting a gel case like I did for my Captivate.

Currently using this CaseMate case.
Very large case, but once I got used to it, the Optimus 3D felt too small
I like how it feels in the hand and the stand is a plus. Helps a lot, but the stand is made completely out of plastic and feels very flimsy. Always worried it might snap off if used too much.

It's bulky but it still fits in my front pocket. With my Infuse, I had a leather flip case (that the Thrill also fits in very well), I couldn't put it in my front pocket, had to go in the back.
I like the added corner protection.

I am not sure if the kickstand is made out of metal or plastic though, the picture is horrible. For people who want a more thinner case.

Same here. Also, the power button is a bit harder to push than the other case, but I like this case.
The real down side is that the kickstand makes the phone stand where the power plug is, so you can not have it plugged in to power when watching a video on it unless you hang that part over the edge of the counter\table.

Agreed. Looks like something for an old Nokia.

Sorry guys, but is it just me or does everyone in this forum have horrible taste? Every case I see is uglier than the next. This is no exception. Why would you want to add so much bulk? The leather and details look cheap.

So you would prefer one that seems to be all plastic?

I would prefer one like the ipad covers. A simple, classy flap across the screen to protect it from the contents of my backpack, briefcase, laptop bag, or pocket. The brushed aluminum sides and plastic-rubber back don't need anything and look premium on their own. Bonus points if it can be rolled up into a stand like the ipad covers.

I'd prefer a good quality plastic case over the PU 'leather' ones. Though there's a thin amount of split hide sandwiched in there somewhere, the textured polyurethane outer coating doesn't look or feel like real leather to me. I think it turns a nice looking device into something that looks chunky and ugly. Also, the PU covers won't wear like leather (which looks better over time). Instead they are likely to delaminate, have the coating flake off, and look crappy.

+1000, those cases that completely cover it in fuax leather. yuk...

I'm waiting for the Asus case because nothing beats OEM. I think my beautiful Nexus 7 deserves something that enchances its looks and not ruins it. I wouldn't mind a leather or faux leather Asus built case either. I think in the time to come we will be seen a lot of accessories everywhere for our device. Don't rush and buy junk.

Both the black leather Apple smart Cover and the Blackberry Playbook Convertible cases are superb IMO.

I actually owned the Playbook and the Convertible case from Blackberry. It was an awesome case and very well made. That's the reason why I prefer OEM. It's always better.

How are you guys protecting your screen during transportation if you don't have a cover. I agree with the comments about all the ugly cases...wow.

There are two different versions of the case, and on expan they only have one picture of it.
Version 1 is like an iPad smart cover where it folds up in the back for it to stand up. Version 2 is like my poetic hardback case where you put the tablet into the "indents." I hate covers where you have to fold it up in the back to stand it up, so I'm going to email expansys and ask which one it is. It seems like it's version 1, the fold up one.

Any chance you have any pictures of the case? I just ordered one of these. If it's as good as advertised, I think it'll get the job done.

My wife got me this one for xmas http://www.amazon.com/i-Blason-Goog...d=1357244965&sr=1-2&keywords=iblason+nexus+10 I like it.
It looks like exactly what you are looking for, costs $18.00 and smells like leather to me. The only fault I can find is that there is no opening on the bottom for the POGO charger, whenever that is available, so you have to open the case to be able to use it. But for $18.00 and Amazon (who are excellent on returns if you don't like it) it's hard to go wrong.

I picked up one from Bear Motion on Amazon. It's much nicer than you'd think considering the price. They make a brown one too. Magnetic seal and auto-sleep/wake. After using it a few days, it has softened up a bit and feels even nicer.
Search 'Bear Motion Genuine Cowhide nexus 10' on Amazon. I don't have enough posts to put any links in yet.
Additionally, I bought a clear screen protector and carbon fiber 'style' protector for the sides and back from Skinomi. (Their website is cheaper than Amazon and used a promo code 'skinomi25' for 25% off.) I am not usually good at installing such things but it turned out pretty well.

I was looking at the bear case..are the top parts of the speakers covered by that case? I currently have the poetic dura case and sadly the only part of the speaker that is covered is the part where the speaker actually is :-/.

I ordered a Bear Motion from Amazon. It arrived today but was a mistake. The one I received was clearly for another, smaller tablet. Anyway if the one for the Nexus 10 is the same material I wouldn't like it. If it is real leather it fooled me. It is very pleather-like. I now have my eye on much more expensive leather cases like the ones that people are selling on Etsy or Nor eve.

Can not post a link yet, will try later.

I would say the top of the speaker is covered about .5” or less. I haven't noticed any issues with sound. It is actually leather, though it's really stiff at first. The inside has some sort of soft/fuzzy cloth lining. I'm pretty happy with mine so far. I used a skinomi wrap/screen cover too for extra peace of mind.

I ordered one a few days ago. When it gets here I will let you know, but black is the only color they keep in stock. Everything else is made-to-order. I got a brown one, so it might be a few weeks.
One think to keep in mind is the Noreve site includes VAT in the prices. If you create an account, it will update the price to exclude VAT (as long as you live somewhere that doest do VAT). They also ship free. Still pretty expensive though. It was around $92 for mine.
One thing that is pretty cool is they link to third party reviews of their product and they are organized by device, case color, and language. At least one of them is a video review of a case for the Nexus 7. I didn't see any reviews for a Nexus 10 case, but the other reviews give you a pretty good idea of the quality.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2

Update on the Bear Motion case, still a great case overall especially for what I paid, but I have noticed a flaw. The cutout for the POGO port has no stitching between the leather outer material and the interior lining. The adhesive has broken down a little and the lining is just a tiny bit loose around the opening. I intend to fix this myself with a needle, some black thread and about 5 minutes. This does have the potential to happen on the edges of the leather areas that do not have stitching though.
It should be noted the area with this issue flexes A LOT though. I'll post a picture later. It is very minor and I'd still buy this case again, but the manufacturer could easily prevent this with an extra couple inches of stitching.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using XDA Premium HD app

I received my Noreve case yesterday, so it took a little over three weeks to get to me (it is faster if you pick a black color). It is clearly much higher quality than the Bear Motion case I tried previously and better anything else I have seen on Amazon.
That does not mean I don't have any complaints. Mind you, these are pretty minor but they are complaints nonetheless.
Firstly, they have some sort of thin layer of open cell foam under the front cover. Yesterday when you pressed a bit on the front cover, you could feel and hear the foam compressing. Today, after having it in my messenger bag, that sounds seems to have worked itself out. I much prefer the feel of the back, which seems to be leather right on top of plastic. The inside front cover has some sort of rubber or gel padding and I like that too, but I am not sure the inside front cover is leather. I don't think it is. I guess they are going for a soft, cushy feel on the front.
Secondly, the clasp is slightly annoying. Someone asked how firm it was and I will say it is pretty firm. It definitely stays closed and I have no complaints about how well it functions, but the problem is the clasp on the front cover prevents the device from laying flat when the cover is folded back because the clasp points down.
The last complaint I have is the process of converting it to stand mode. You have to pop the tablet out of the bottom of the case to stand it up. This isn't an easy or quick task because the case grips the tablet pretty tight.
Despite my complaining you just read, I actually really do like the case. It is definitely quality made with quality materials.

Sweet Armor GNote Bumper & Mugen Extended Battery

First Im sorry if this has been asked before but anyone tried sweet armor yet? If so, will it work with the Mugen Extended Battery? Thanks =)
http://www.thesweetarmor.com/en/13-sweet-armor-gnote-2

looks awesome but expensive for just a bumper.

It looks nice- though definitely a little pricey. Also looks a little bulky in the back? Maybe it's the images.

Coming from (SGS3 Galaxy S3) - new Note 2 owner
I've tried similar bumper for SGS3 - there is issues of the thing being heavy and adding to the weight of the device.
If the bumper makers had sense - they'd focus on the fit and adding protection - not adding looks/ metal and finish.
Now with extended batteries - the bumpers are a tough fit. Of the several I tried for the SGS3 only one fit.
If anyone knows better please post.

I have the Sweet Armor but no extended battery.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

Looks good...but aluminum will dent if dropped so drop the phone your phone might be protected but you need to get a new case

Looks great, too expensive though.

Wow 70$. But i don't need an extra Note 2, I just want the bumper

Ihave a cheap metal bumper with my extended battery. You shouldnt have to worry about denting it but it will reduce signal and gps performance. Im going to mod it and see if I can remedy the issue. The one I bought was only 10 $ but doesnt screw together. I think the screw together versions are better. You should be able to find a cheap Chinese knock off sweet armor on ebay soon enough.

I had a sweet armor bumper and the mugen extended for the GNote 1 and they both fit perfectly, hence i asked =) It is indeed a little pricey so it will depend on personal preference, i guess. I have tried cheaper bumpers for the note 1 and none of them look as good as the sweet armor. Of course i understand some would prefer cheaper bumpers but this one has awesome look and finish. The sweet armor on my Note 1 still look as good today as it was on day 1 when i got it. Admitedly, I haven't dropped my Note 1 (thank god) so i cant say too much about the durability though. Not sure about the cheaper bumpers (i havent used them long enough) but definitely no dents/scratches from everyday wear and tear for this one though.
The only problem i had with the Note1 sweet armor though is that i lost a screw once and i had to replace it (it came with 5 extra screws btw) but that was my own negligence (prob a loose screw), never lost another screw after the first one til today =) the fit was awesome for my Note1, never had a reception problem (or not bad enough for me to notice at least). The extra weight wasnt a problem for me (I use a Note1 with the extended battery remember) but i'd think it wont add too much weight to a standard GNote. Just removed the bumper from my note1, and saw no scratch (from the bumper) on the sides of the phone.
PS: I went ahead and ordered one today and already got my shipping confirmation few hours later. I will try to update here with pics when it arrives. If it doesnt fit my mugen extended then i guess i will use it when im using the standard battery (I usually switch extended/standard battery depending on my need at the time). It will take a while cause i was being cheap and chose the cheaper shipping option.

Okay just got my bumper in the mail today. Fits perfect even with the mugen extended. Quality is awesome. Only complain I have is the side buttons feel a little loose, no biggie. And of course a lil too pricey. Comes with 3 extra buttons and five screws, loving it. It looks awesome =)

I would love to buy several if they are of the same quality. Could you provide a link where these are available for $10 please?
UPDATE: Saw the other thread you participated in about aluminum bumpers and I see what bumpers you're referring to. While they look nice, you get what you pay for. I tried one of those and the quality is MUCH lower than the Sweet Armor. It is lighter, thinner, and scratches the GN2 easily. I believe in paying for quality if it can be had and the SA is worth it IMO.
No offense to those who bought the $10 eBay bumpers though.

I had the SA on my SII, it was sweet but pricey. After I sold my SII to get the Note, I gave the $10 bumper a go for a cheaper bumper look. Unfortunately, it messed up my Note. Plastic started chipping off between the screen and bezel.
Cons: Flimsy built, one time it slipped about half a feet high (in account with the weight of phone). The frame wasn't in the best of shape anymore. Unsatisfying premium look, actually made my phone look cheap. Tight slider, which cause plastic area to chip off over time and possible scratches to screen protector or phone if your not careful.
Pros: Cheap, easily replaceable. (provided not parts/accessory of your phone that needs replacement caused by the bumper)
Imho, you get what you paid for and I paid more. But kudos to those who had no problem with their bumpers. On my Note II, It's just sad case if I had to go thru it again, that's why I'm going back to SA

I had one of my Galaxy S1. Well made piece of kit but I ultimately didnt like the feel in the hand and was dubious about the shock protection (on that version there were only a few little thin foam strips inside the bezel.
