Hi guys
i am starting this thread to find out what most people prefer for protecting their precious...:fingers-crossed:
All of you could post on what reason you choose the kind of protection they prefer, so that others would have an insight on how to choose for themselves...:angel:
don't post about magnet cases/covers then ruin the s pen experience..
Mod Edit
I am waiting for the Trident Aegis case to be released in November. Love the style and protection it gives

You could just use the Screenguard/Full cover option..
@all please do post te reason why you the specific type of case/cover..
I really hope Samsung comes out with this awesome case they have for the S3. My partner has one, and it covers the ports with a little plug and it's a very snug TPU case.
I'm waiting for the TMOUS version of the Note II to become available. If I could, I'd choose an Otterbox case for it. I've gotten great protection for my HTC HD2 using their Defender case. However, Otterbox has said they have no plans to introduce a case for the Note II "in the near future."
I promised myself that my next phone from my current s2 will be bare (caseless) besides a skin, such as Spigen steinheil glas and back protector.
On a side question, is the camera on the note 2 recessed? Ie. Not sticking out from the back cover?

Nothing at all. It's big enough as it is, but I do want an aluminium or carbon fiber rear replacement. Anyone know where I can get one?
Well I went with the book case from Samsung.
I thought it looked pretty good without adding hardly anything to the dimensions plus this way I have the screen protected and when I go to sell it for the next super smartphone, I put the original back price on and any scratches or hits on the back are instantly gone.
To be fair I don't normally like cases but this does not get in the way to much and when folded back on itself it makes a very good horizontal stand for watching videos.
Hope whatever you chooses works for you but imho whilst Otter boxes are without a doubt solid protection they just ruin the pleasure in having a slim phone.

Was waiting for that one! :cyclops:
Is there any case that is fixed on the phone only from up and down? Like this Ringke case for Galaxy Nexus? My only problem with cases for Note II is that the phone is already wide, so a case with sides fixing, make it wider.

Hello fellow Nexus 7 users!
I have recently been searching around the internet for a case for my Nexus 7 with a few specifications, I have failed to find the case I am looking for and now I have turned to your help!
I would like a clamshell case which wraps around the back of my Nexus 7 without it coming round the front and on the side which faces the screen I would it to be as slim as possible with a smallish pocket to fit a mini hard drive.
Thank you for your help, it is much appreciated!
Doesn't exist, not specifically for the N7. Maybe you should think about adapting something like the Poetic Element case which has dropped significantly in price since its release. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Poetic-ELEM...CPXW/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1352058374&sr=8-4

Couldn't be more happy with it, comfortable and slim. Nice to hold, nice texture and feel.
One problem, the stand is ABSOLUTELY USELESS
But for a 7 inch device, its comfier to hold in one hand anyway.
I use the Poetic Smart Case with the front flap. I'm also getting my Portenzo Hardbook cover case in the mail today. Having been around, these 2 look like the thinnest case that covers the whole unit.
If you just want the back, perhaps look into just a TPU case like a Cruzer. The Blurex smart "leather" cases were nice to own too.
Is there any Keyboard case out for the Nexus 10? Maybe we can find a Galaxy Tab 2 Keyboard case that fits.
I picked up a Kensington expert multi angle folio keyboard case and it works well.

How secure does it hold the tablet? I see it has some type of a "grip pad." Is it secure enough to use in your lap?
The grip pad feels secure, but the case itself is... you know how the ipad smart cover folds under itself to create a triangular stand? This is kind of the same concept. It's not a rigid clamshell style case. I think it's probably better suited to being used on a desk/table. I did try it in my lap; it feels kinda floppy. Don't think the tablet would come off, but still... I like it because I can pop the tablet in/out quickly and easily. I like the naked tablet feel when I don't need the keyboard
Curious to know if anyone has tried the combination of the 2 cases. i really like the back/feel of the Ringke case but wouldn't mind a flip cover.
You would have to cut the left side of the case to allow the flip to move more freely (ala that mod on other thread)..but it should.

It almost fits. You can't access the volume buttons and the phone sticks out/up a little on the left side where the flap attaches. Like commenter above said, surgery would be the only way to make it secure and useful.

Hello all,
There doesn't seem to be a lot of choice in terms of cases for the Tab S6. All the cases on Amazon have a cut out for the stylus which makes it stick out and they don't cover the sides of the tablet either.
I like the Samsung case but it's too expensive and more importantly for me, does not cover the sides.
Please post your recommendations here...
Thanks in advance

I've yet to find a third party case that has a cover system for the pen too
I've gone with the official book cover with a 10.5inch sleeve to put both in when it's in my bag etc. All of the ones on eBay, amazon, aliexpress etc all have a cut out for the pen which you will 100% lose the pen at some point. Following this thread incase someone has found one.
Until I decide on a case with a pen holder—doesn't have to accomodate the pen slot, and I don't have the keyboard—I've just Dremeled the camera lens slot of my S5e case to make it bigger. So, I might just get an S5e case with a pen holder and do the same.
@TiTiB do you know if the S5e cases fit the S6? I would be looking to do the same if it does.

Fits perfectly.
I like the official keyboard case

I preordered the poetic rubberize shell last night, I also like the samsung keyboard case for travel
There are a couple of options on Amazon that cover the pen.. though in a different way.
The main cover comes all the way around and then flips over a couple of inches onto the back to cover the pen cut-out.
They are a keyboard cover but the keyboard can be taken out as it is connected via magnets.

I got the Poetic Rubber case yesterday. It's a much better case than it was for the s4. It fits tight, perfectly edge to edge of the screen and I love the extra retainer for the pen. This case works great in DEX mode or if you are not using the hidden nav options. You can easily hold the tab by the edge of the case in both portrait and landscape. The only issue with the case is that it makes edge swiping a little difficult. It does add a little weight, but holding in one hand is not an issue.
Moko Folio Case, Logitech K480 Keyboard
I also have been wavering about what case and finally decided to by an inexpensive Moko Folio for about $10 while things sort themselves out. It is a typical folio feature-wise with the exception that the S-pen slot on the back has an elastic cover up about half the pen and makes it much more secure while letting it rest in the magnetic slot for charging.
For a keyboard (lots of people seem to be reporting lots of problems with the Samsung keyboard) I am using a Logitech K480 which I already own and use with other tablets. It has three-position switch with retains bluetooth parameters for three-different devices, keys with decent feel and a slot to put the tab in to hold it up. It also comes with a semi-hard case which has a padded slot in the front cover for the tablet (even with the folio cover).
It's still soon so I will keep watching...

huh? the s5e case does not fit the s6 very well at all.
when I used the Samsung s5e book cover on the Tab S6, the rear cameras did not fit within the S5e case hence the s5e case was not attached securely with the magnetic attachment.
if you cut out a larger hole in the s5e case for the s6 cameras, then it might be better.

The S Pen is based on electromagnetic resonance. I assume the company wasn't cognizant of how a separate magnetic field could present a problem, which is unfortunate. This case's styling is perfect, so hopefully the design will be altered.

I got this case too ($13.99) and I like it. I even put one of my silicone nose pads (small size) on the case's S-Pen flap so that I could more easily pull it open.

I have tried a few cases and this is the best one I could find (and previously recommended on here) and it was a reasonable price. It’s nice and light and has a place to store the pen to stop it getting lost. The cover also activates the wake sleep when opening and closing.

I keep my tablet in a pouch when not in use along with a good little Bluetooth keyboard which I have used on previous tablets which is also really well made and has a built in trackpad and comes with its own sleeve, again this is reasonably priced.

I also have a Microsoft Arc mouse which I was given and as that folds flat it also fits nicely inside the sleeve I have

I have used this setup with Dex and the keyboard / mouse combination works great
