Hold out for the official cover?

Anyone holding out for the official cover? Or is there a better one in existence?

The official cover is available from the play store but sucks. The flap doesn't stay closed and is just too flimbsy for my taste.
However there are pictures if the Asus Premium Nexus 7 cover that I think looks awesome. I haven't heard 1 word about it though.

We got one in at work the other day. I couldn't resist the urge to open the box to check the quality of the cover. It went right back in the box. In my opinion, it's not worth the money. I'm spoiled by the iPad smart cover.

there is a new premium case coming out end of the month.

I'm waiting on the premium case. $39.99 seems a little much but it looks pretty sweet!
In the meantime I got a $5 TPU S-Line case off of eBay and I love it!! Can't beat the price I paid for it

Official Samsung Protective Cover

Have not seen this anywhere so far, does anyone have any more details (price or pictures). I have only seen it listed in the Samsung website at:
http://www.samsung.com/ae/microsite/galaxynote/note2/en/spec.html?type=find
See the section Optional Contents. Looks to be a non-flip open face protective cover I think.

I have this cover, I got it on preorder. Now I do not have access to a good camera to take pictures of the phone in case, but I can make some photos with old Nokia I recommend this case, it is very cool, fit perfect. This case cost about 15£/20€

Can you please give us the link Where you bought it.I cant find it anywhere
thank you

I have seen some knock off type ones on eBay. I like the looks of this cover a lot. It fully protects the edges of the phone.

From Samsung's website it appears to be a hard plastic back with a soft (silicone) border.
There is a code for 50% off ---> rE155266e

Just ordered mine from the Samsung website. Used the coupon code and got 50% off. Came to $20 including shipping. So excited. Just what I was looking for. Keep the look of the phone, but protect from drops (silicone around the edge). Bonus, it covers up some of the ugly Verizon labeling. Now just to fix that home screen button!

This case must be hard to find. I had a 3 week old one i sold on ebay last week and it went for $41....the case was only $38 in stores. Its a really nice case. Feels really good in the hand.

Only one way to find out

Not there yet. I've been looking and emailed case mate they said just keep looking. looking thanks

my 2 cents
Hi all,
Just wanted to chime in on this case. The protection is great and the side grips make the feel more solid as opposed to slippery. The extended rubber on the face helps when it is facedown or when it potentially drops so it's not flush against the floor/table. My only beef is that the kickstand rubber part has come loose so i'm not sure how durable that part is, it's not that much of a hassle as I can still manage to prop it up but I'm afraid it will eventually break off.
Most complaints are about the difficulty of getting the kickstand out
P.S. all ports are accessible i.e. stylus, charger, headphones, camera, speaker
Raised power & volume up/down buttons

Whats the matter with case makers these days? Release the case with just 2 colors, one is black the other is white with pink. Its exactly like body glove diamond series... ffs have they ever thought men uses with white case too? Why pink?? Could just use red and that would plays with well with both genders...

Nice looking case but have always had the rubber part warp on every case I had. Evo 4g, evo 3d, and the skyrocket. I ended up using the speck case for my note 2. Even if anything happens to it I can exchange it for free at the att store.

Metal Bumper with Screws

Looking to pick up a metal bumper but I don't want the kind that slide together. I purchased one of those from Ebay a few months ago and I wasn't very happy with it. Looking for something that is a little better quality. The Sweet Armor looked good but it is no longer available in black. Any suggestions?

The draco looks nice, but I can't find any one who has one with our phone for an opinion

Im just worried about recption problems with metal or aluminum bumpers. Had real bad experience with some when I was still on my iphone 5 and it wasnt those cheap bumpers too.

first vid i found of it. the red one looks sick..but like all metal bumpers including this one - you will suffer one bar loss if not more depending on your signal strength in your area.

Yes it does, I just wish it wasn't $90.00.

I have a Thunder Gray Draco sitting in my mailbox. I'll get pics and do a review when I get home. When I had a Sweet Armor case on my S3 there was no signal loss. The Draco for some reason did drop one bar. Call quality and data connection wise, I didn't notice a difference. I'll check it and see what happens tonight.
iPhone 5 has their antennas all along the aluminum sides. When you put a aluminum bumper on top of that, you're doubling the interference.
Samsung phones are some type of polymer / plastic. Not as much interference. That's why Draco has cases that are half aluminum and half plastic for the iPhone. If there were really issues with reception interference, they would have switch the S3 cases to half and half as well.

Have you seen this one?

I think the issue I had with it is that there is a cutout for the antenna that the Asian version of the phone has. If it didn't have that cutout, I would've gotten it.
