Xda case or seidio surface - Galaxy Note II Accessories

I'm deciding between xda/cruzerlite and seidio surface/best buy premium
Xda is xda and only $10 and looks nice
Surface seems more durable and comes with holster that I might or might not use
This is my 1st phone that isn't a flip so I don't know if I will use it because I don't like that it takes up a whole pocket but the phone might weigh down my pants.

I bought the surface and love it!!! Only thing is that it ripped off my skinomi screen protector so I'm in search for a screen protector that works with this case... It does seem to collect dust around the edges of the the screen but not too bad and doesn't bother me... Over I think it's perfect

Could you get a screen protector to work with the surface? A wet one I just ordered a just like glass one and the owner says it will be fine

I have the BB PT case and it works great. Love the holster.

Geting surface/bb premium I don't want to wait for xda case to come out

I tried to resist the surface case for a while, cos I live in Europe and it's expensive with shipping, but, I couldn't hold my self off anymore! went on and ordered it(for a total of 40 $) , might get it next week.
Reviews, videos and ppl on xda have nothing but praising that case, though I've never seen it but I guess I won't be disappointed.

I have a JLG and the surface case... Best combo. Just make sure to line up the protector with the home button. The two literally fit together perfectly minus an 1/8" gap at the bottom. My camera can't even capture how well the two go together.
Enjoy!

Spigen ultra clear is just a small amount to the case so dust gathers there

The TPU case leaves marks on the metal coat

I have my SN2 for 10 days and i am using a tpu case from day one..today i found marks on the metal coat . Can i remove these marks?
nope, there will be some small marks, had it on my SGS2, still better than having no case IMO, after 1.5 years the marks didn't increase a bit. Planning to get a case for the Note 2 anytime

What sort of mark is it? A scratch? A dot? Or what?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
They are dots but not deep..
Photos please. I like to use TPU, but am wondering what it does to this device.

I have just found a dot on mine too...but it doesn't make sense to me how the tpu can be the cause of it...but I'm pretty sure it wasn't there when I first got the phone

The TPU cases will scratch your phone's outter body, and there is no way to remove it but it will protect your phone.
I haven't had a device with Chrome Trim since my Touch Pro 1. I can see how little bits of dust can get in between the tpu and body of the phone. Some slight rubbing can cause the scratches I suppose. I haven't seen any on my last 3 devices, but then again they were dull/semi gloss black.

But why? There are only dusts between the tpu and the phone , so what is scratching it?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Dust with include microscopic bits of grit - this is the culprit
I guess ideally you can use one of those clear skins on the body of the phone. Then use the tpu. No scratches anymore.

Aluminium bumper inteferes with spen

Hi, I bought an aluminium bumper case for my note but found that it inteferes with my spen. When I am using it towards the edges of the screen I have to press harder for the spen to work. Especially in the corners. Would like to known if anyone else has this. ..

iLoome Screenmate 8h

I've been really wanting to get a tempered glass protector. And I keep leaning towards this one. Has anyone tried this screen protector?

Cheap, I would just get it. I'm rocking Seidio tempered glass, it chipped from a drop in the corner.. But it's away from the screen so it doesn't bother me.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk
I'm using the "Explosion-proof tempered glass film" with 9H hardness and I can say that is really good. The screen brights better, nothing changed in the touch screen and the film repels oil. The only problem to me is the reflex in the film when the light is behind me.
On a whim, I put one on a few weeks ago. I found that it scratches easier than a regular iSmooth protector. I typically get a few months use from one iSmooth. This iLoome barely lasted a few weeks in my harsh, steel mill environment. YMMV. For me, it was a complete waste of money.

Puregear Dualtek cases

I haven't seen any mention of the Puregear Dualtek case for the G2 so I thought I'd share. It looks like a great rugged case, very similar to a UAG. Use the code PURE50 for 50% off at checkout to knock the price down to $17.49! Just ordered one and can't wait to get it. The site doesn't specify what carrier model the case fits, though the mock up pics show the Verizon model. I contacted Puregear customer service and asked about my Sprint version. According to their engineers it will fit the Sprint variant just fine. AT&T/T-mobile will fit as well.

Looks good to me. It's a case to consider

Not if you use the code for 50% off. Also, it's a heavy duty case, not a cheap tpu.

Look those over once they arrive. For that price they're likely knock offs. I looked at eBay first and found some that were cheap but the seller had bad feedback for counterfeit cases.
A while back I bought a UAG case for my wife's phone from Amazon and it was fake. This was sold by Amazon too, not a 3rd party through Amazon. They corrected it with no issue, but it does make me hesitate when something is at that much of a discount.
If those are real, kudos to you for the find. I looked on Amazon before I purchased and there weren't any listed. I'd be jealous if I hadn't got mine for $17 and free shipping with that code.

The tough case will be here today and the slim will be here Wednesday I Will report back. Don't think they are fake with the code it's the same price,just have the choice to send it back if it's not liked

Sent from my LG-LS980 using Tapatalk
I picked up a dualtek black (would have gone with the white, but I wasn't digging the white gloss so i opted for the matte finish black). it seems very nice so far, much bigger than the Dual Pro i'm about to return, but also feels considerably more protective. Feels more substantial than my S4 UAG case as well.

My wife was looking at s4 cases on eBay. I sent her a link from here for her device. And told her to get the black one for my g2.
Is there rubber or anything to keep it from sliding around my center console?
Sent from my LG-D800 using xda app-developers app
I've seen the slim case at ebay & suspect it's a fake. But puregear seems not posting out of US, so the best way to go for me is ebay. Even if it's possibly fake. Like the clear back plate very much & the black one has a matte finish to the sides.

The black one came in today. Still waiting on the tough case. We had bad weather so it may be here today as well

Both. The white is still in the box

The tough is here. I will say that the g2 is floating in the case. Not 100 percent float but I would say 40 percent is. All corners are stiff so it not moving around at all but the back is its not flush in all areas. It works. I guess it will let air in side for heat and cushion.
