eBay cases? - Galaxy Note II Accessories

Hi. I was wondering if anyone had any experiences with these cases I've been looking at on eBay.

Do they fit well? Provide good protection? Do they scratch the phone? Will they work with a full body skin? Or should I just go with an Otterbox or Trident? Are there any other rugged case makers out there?
I wanted to buy several cases, but these cases aren't worth it I guess I would just buy an Otterbox or Trident case.

First 2 case are too bulky. I have the third case and I like these style of case. They fit good and not to bulky but still provide good accidental drop protection.

the third case is nice, fits well and feels as if it wuld protect the phone...in the end I went with a defender though.

Got the third one, amazing for the price! Fits great and feels ok!

I have the third case also and it fits good and has a nice texture to it. The inner case is like a tpu case and then it has a hard shell that gets put on that covers the corners and back. If you want total protection get the Otterbox but I feel this case has good protection

I have the 3rd case as well, and liked it. Since replaced with the seidio surface.
You won't be disappointed in the 3rd one.

I also have the third one. Mine is all black and I like it. I really want the seido covert case for the extended battery.

Case/Screen protector Reccomendations

So just got the Spigen Case and Screen Protector, both are awesome! Put the screen protector on as soon as I opened the box, not a single bubble/issue at all.....
So far so good, just thought I should pass this along!

Clemc.... I too odered the Spigen(sp?) screen protector. I messed the first one up so badly that I threw it away.... If they just made that thing a teeny bit smaller than the screen, it would go on alot easier..... I'm going to take the second (and last) protector to Best Buy this weekend... There's a guy there who is great at installing screen and full body protectors.
I ordered the OtterBox Commuter case.... It offers great protection, especially around the screen. Biggest downside is it makes the Note much heavier, and it's a pain to put on and remove.

I personally like my krusell white case with built in kickstand

I was looking really hard at that one (krusell white case) before I decided on the Spigen case, it looked really sharp, and that kickstand seemed like such a good idea. Are you enjoying it illest?
I have the Trident Kraken Ams case with kickstand and detachable belt clip on mine. I love it. Its 3 pieces and built solidly. I'd recommend that to anyone. I
I have the seidio active combo, it doesn't add too much bulk.
Sent from my SGH-T879 using xda premium
Krusell is great feels slick on the hands,and kickstand is great for multimedia. It has very slight bulk on back since it is packing a well built kickstand. All and all very happy with my purchase

here is a video of the original note with the case on so you can get an idea of thickness
and here is a kind of regular guy review of Shell Gel cases
The pics of the note 2 look nicer than the note 1 videos. I might consider this. Thanks.
Nice, considering this case also.

There is no way i am putting this thing near my phone, but very protective though

I have this on my HTC sensation and its awesome. I recommended this to my friend as well and he love it. I'm waiting to get it for my wife's note its just solid and doesn't feel bulky in the pocket and I've dropped twice from seat height and all is well. Better than the over priced over rated otterbox which was great when first released now they are just out to make money. No quality in them anymore.

I was saddened when I learned SGP is not making the Glas.T protector for the Note 2. This curved glass thing is irritating. But, their ultra crystal is amazing, I highly recommend it.

looking for a slim case with kickstand.

hey there guys I'm looking for a case for my samsung Verizon Galaxy Note 2. looking for one that fits the stock battery as well as one that fits the extended battery.trying to find with a kickstand is proving difficult.I don't want a folio or one that closes like a book I want that had the screen open all the time. also need it to be able to go in and out of my pocket easy without catching, smooth if you will but still has some grip. a tall order I know I've looked quite a bit any help is much appreciated.
The seidio surface looks like the thinnest case with a kickstand but I'm just judging by looking online.
You could look into the flygrip too. I have it and it's actually a lot thinner then I thought it would be. I love it, it makes one handed operation so much easier and it doubles as a kickstand you can use in portrait or landscape. Plus you can attach it to any case.

So far this is the thinnest case I've seen with a kick stand. A member posted this case on "Post a picture of your case along with your Note 2" thread. He said that he bought it from China. I've been looking for this case online but can't seem to find it anywhere.
that looks pretty good I'll go check into that one thanks
Siedo surface ive owned mine for 3 months no scratches on it and holds up so well worth every penny

+1 for the Seidio surface case. Good protection, hardly adds any bulk at all, and it does have a kickstand. I usually use the active cases on my phones, but the note 2 being as big as it is, I didn't want to add that much bulk. So far very happy with the surface case. (And I've dropped it a few times, holds up very well.)
Another vote for the surface. I love the look and feel of mine. The only thing to note is that it may push up your screen protector if you have one. I had to trim mine with an exacto knife before I applied it once the surface was on. Now I'm looking at the vitreo as a new surface protector as that'll fit with the surface as is.
I ordered this case. Will let you know how it is.

I am using this case now. It is good, but too slippery and the kickstand is wearing quickly (starting to fall out of the case occasionally). But not too bulky, and decent protection..

I have that exact case too. After a while the kickstand did start to fall out of the case but i found out it was because the tiny (and I mean tiny) bump that they consider a latch had broken off. So I just dabbed a little super glue and it fits just fine.
It does get a little slippery at times, but I like that the kickstand is pretty sturdy on portrait mode. You don't often see a kickstand that is sturdy and doesn't topple the phone when you press on it.

I have found the snap tail case to be the thinnest kickstand case that will stand the Note up in both vertical and horizontal.

I do not believe slim and kick stand goes hand in hand but again some cases are close to being called slim for sure

Agreed. Before getting the ZL battery, I tried a couple of kickstand cases and the thinner cases have thin kickstands.

I purchased the Seidio case with the kickstand. I've used their cases for quite some time simply because they have such a low profile and it's easy to remove the battery. My wife has the Otterbox on her Note II, but only because she doesn't know how to hold on to her device and has already shattered one Note II. The protection you get from the Otterbox is nice, but I really prefer the smaller footprint of the Seidio. Also, the kickstand works terrific.

I have the Sedio Surface case and I liked the kickstand on that a lot, but I did have one gripe. After having to take out my battery a few times I noticed the case didn't stay together very well. Sometimes the case would actually come apart in my pocket when I went to grab it from my pocket. I did find sticking some thin paper between the case and the phone helped with it coming apart often though. If you don't find yourself taking off your case a lot it might be a good case.

Looking for a certain case

Hello I was just looking for a black case that is not too slippery and that is fairly protective with a lip if it is not a a diary or wallet case.

The Duzign case you can purchase from amazon or eBay. One of the least expensive cases I own, but I use it all the time. The case is identical to the Cruzerlite Spi-Force for half the price and the TPU liner is awesome.

Good luck with your search; I'm sure you'll find something suitable.
Body glove. Very slim but good protection.

When I saw the thread I thought the case was a bit of a gimmick, but once I got myself one from Amazon Warehouse and tried it myself I was surprised how good it is; thin but offers a decent amount of protection, also the grip is much better than say the Diz which I also have

Which case?

Looking for a case that's:
1. Rugged (at least decent shock impact)
2. Somewhat slim
3. Not too pricey
So far I'm torn between:

And
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00DY2SEFE/ref=aw_d_pd_wireless
Anyone know which case or of another have the best combination of shock impact without being too thick?
Thanks.

I have the case from the first link you posted. I've had no problems whatsoever thus far. The belt clip is really secure and the silicon not only covers the phone but it serves as a border around the screen so if you drop it the screen won't even touch the floor really. The case is decent too. Definitely worth $13.
about how thick is the case?

It's not bulky. You can trust the reviews on amazon for the case. It's worth it especially for the price.
I have the otterbox defender series. Due to the design of the case, There's a bubble in the screen protector. I simply poped it out and replaced it with a zagg screen protector. Search ebay, I only spent $30. Still waterproof and my 3 kids literally throw my phone across the room and it's still in brand new condition

I almost went with the iBlason, but ended up going to Unicorn Beetle route. It's a nice case and I really like it. It's a tough TPU throughout with a polycarbonate slab on the back. Looks pretty nice and feels good in the hand--quality materials. The only thing is you have to shave the little inner button nubs off with a razor blade as the Amazon reviews mention.
Good luck deciding.

I own both, as well as just about every other case made for our phone...
I hate the i-Blason, and have since I took it out of the package. Nothing really wrong with it, just not my taste. Inner portion is too mushy, hard to slip it in and out of my pocket, and I don't think anyone would call it "thin".
For "thin and rugged" you are far better off with the SUPCASE. Also look at the TUDIA Ultra Slim Melody.
