I only use Speck, and called them when I got my Note 2 and was told as of now they have no info on when the cases will drop.

Don't trust that site at all. I have order a fee things from them in then past just to have my stuff canceled because they ran out. Not delayed. CANCELED!

That's funny. I sent of a few emails the other day to the major case makers because I'd like to know if they're going to make cases for this tank of a phone. Haha. Yesterday I was downtown and, here in Spain to say hello you give the person a kiss on each cheek, the person who I now hate accidentally knocked my phone down on the floor. I am so glad I bought a cheap case off the net before I even got the phone. It saved my phone. Don't ever go comando with your phone! Haha. This 3 dollar tpu case saved my phone xD. I hope seidio or case mate make their dual layer cases soon. Hehe.

I emailed Trident this morning. After the crappy build quality of the cases for my Atrix and my wife's iPhone, probably won't by using Otterbox anymore.

here is a screen shot from ATT you can check the site though

Hmm, what's great is these companies are telling people different crap. Where, if you go to say AT&T's site they are selling case mate and otterbox cases for the Note 2. I've contacted Otterbox and Case-Mate, both companies told me they'd have official releases mid nov/early dec.

What i dont get is what is a man to do with a phone this size? Carry it in my hand all day! Def not going into my pocket making me walk strange. Would never buy a leather belt case that make it look like a 1990 fanny pack. I need a plastic holster!

Maybe you should have thought that through. I got a snap back case with a flip cover for $10 off ebay. Perfectly fine with this. I have searched and found thousands of cases either on amazon or ebay. There is even a thread named master assesories. Tons of info there

Not True, the told me on twitter that they are working on it, i just checked back with them and they also been replying to everybody that they are working on it but they dont have a date yet

Was told by Trident that Kracken coming mid Nov and Aegis early Dec.

Yeah ATT is what im waiting for. They have that badass Speck case and awesome IMoshi IVisor screen protector. Pricey pricey though.

Where the heck do I get a case?!

I can't find a case for this phone anywhere online. I checked amazon and googled it. People were talking about samsung.com, but I don't see anything specifically for the note 2 there. Can everyone just post links of places they got their cases? I really want a case before I destroy the phone. Thanks!

Samsung.com.
Shop products -> Cell Phone Accessories. Should be 20 pages of stuff
Filter for "Cases and Holsters" on the left. Should be 4 pages now.
Go to page 4. Official Samsung flip cover ($40) and protective case ($30) are there in 2 colors each. Use the 50% coupon from thread at the top of this forum.
Also, there is always eBay, and I heard Sprint stores have cases in stock. My T-Mobile store had no accessories

There are not many US-based retailers that have cases for sale at reasonable prices. I have a slew of them coming through eBay but most of them are third-party and shipping from Hong Kong. I checked the T-Mobile store nearby only to find that they did not have any accessories in stock and did not have any idea when they'd be getting them in.
Samsung.com, when I last checked yesterday, did not have any of the flip covers in stock for the Note 2. I put in a backorder on them but have no received an email yet.
Amazon.com, has mostly third-party accessories as well and it's difficult to find the correct items. Keep in mind that you can search for N7100, N7105, SGH-T889, SGH-i317 and many other model numbers.
Hoping within the next week or two that more US retailers begin carrying accessories.

Sprint
Anybody checked if Sprint has any accessories either?
Just called up T-Mo again, and again, "sorry, nothing yet. Looks as we got the phones early or something". Sigh...I think I got a simple one that should be here by next Monday...from Amazon.com

Well that's lame I'd really like to protect my phone. Can you guys post links to the few cases you are finding? I mean why can't we buy from European retailers sites? It's like they aren't selling cases yet either...

Just checked and Samsung.com is indeed out of the Flip cover, but they have the Protective cover in White and Black in stock.

This one looks decent for $5 and free shipping on Amazon prime: http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-HardBa...UTF8&colid=3ZBGXS3A7E7Q&coliid=I1D60SXXGX7LUY

More and more cases are showing up each day. I ordered that Poetic flip case myself last night. Got a notification that it had dropped to $4.95, and there was no shipping cost (even without Prime), so it was pretty much a no-brainer.

Saw that about the Poetic case myself too. Went to order it today and they wanted to charge something like $25 for delivery to Europe Thanks but no thanks. Pity.
If you receive delivery I'd love to read a review

I'm particularly curious to know, when that case and the Note 2 arrive, if it can handle the phone inside of a TPU.
Speaking of TPUs, I haven't heard back from Diztronic yet on whether they're making TPUs for the Note 2. TPUs don't get any better than Diztronic, imo.

Wish there was a seidio case out.. Or something like it.. That was a nice case that protected well

I have bought quite a few cases for my Note original, and then my S3, and now a few for my Note 2, but i always come back to using this one.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/TPU-Gel-Sil...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item5d35b91c97
It is cheap and is relatively unobtrusive. It is thin and yet, sturdy enough to protect the phone from a drop from a table top. The sides wrap around the front of the touchscreen just enough to give it protection from putting it directly on a flat table top. The kick stand is very useful to stand this beautiful screen, especially for the kids to watch a show.

Another vote for the great body glove case.

I'm really surprised sprint has this nice body glove you all speak of.. I'll have to see if my sprint store had it.. Usually they have some dinky cases that are wayyyyy over priced

Cruzerlite cases are now available at Amazon USA

Available HERE
Mine hasn't come in yet, but I've ordered a few for the SGS3 and was more than happy with them. The only case that i would probably say is better are the ones offered by Diztronic. but when i E-mailed them asking if they planned on offering cases for the Note II they didn't seem that interested.
Contact Diztronic A COMPETITOR TO CRUZERLITE I AM IN NO WAY AFFILIATED WITH HERE

Had a chance to check out some of Cruzerlite's products today. Found out last night that the company is based 15 minutes from my house. Pretty surprised. I couldn't have been more impressed. I picked up a black, white, and clear case for my Note 2....and they are beautiful. The fit is perfect. Probably the most perfect fit I've ever had on a phone. The grip sides are great too. The buttons are perfect. The sprint store was commenting on how awesome the cases were. I'll have some pics up in a few days, but these cases are great. Excellent value and quality. The pictures don't come close to doing it justice. For under 10 bucks...no brainer. Thanks Joel!

How is it any better than any other tpu case? I just ordered the 3.33 one and trying to justify the orange one.

Having the Android guy embedded on the back with a different texture is cool..you can't get the vibe from the amazon pics, so I'll try to capture that in my pictures. Especially the black case. And these cases scream quality. They just look pricey. I've owned plenty of normal tpu cases for other phones. They were fine, but I feel like this case provides a better fit and a higher quality look.

Snapped pic of the black one with my phone real quick

I personally ordered orange blue and white. Will post pictures when they come.

All pics taken with my note 2. Not sure why xda rotated some of them.. I'll leave the cases unpacked if someone wants other angles. .can't take pic of case on the phone yet cause my camera is packed.

what are you talking about? i posted a link where people could buy cases, and then i encouraged people to E-mail their competitor so we had more decent options available to us.
If you think i'm 'making money from referrals' please explain how, and who is paying me. because i don't think Cruzerlite would pay me for encouraging people to contact a competitor. and i don't think Diztronic would pay me for telling people Cruzerlite offers decent cases.

Code above didn't work, try B2G1 instead for buy 2 get 1 free.... Thanks

There is another thread about a mod for the official Samsung protective case that allows you to use the case along with the flip cover case.
Are these cases "soft" enough that I might be able to cut one the same way (a "notch" on the left side) to allow me to use one with my flip cover case?
The website says they're "flexible" but I'm wondering how they might compare to the oem protective case which seems to have a pretty soft looking edge to it.
Any idea?

I had one of these cases for my GNex. It is a very nice case. I like the android dude on the back. It gives a good amount of grip to the phone. It did make my GNex noticeably bigger and with how big the Note 2 already is Im not sure if I want to get a case. I am very careful w/ my phones, though accidents do happen...
Either way, I like the Cruzerlite cases.

Lol, too high , otterbox sells them for 59.95 plus shipping almost knocking down 70 bucks and mine is new also still sealed in box for 42.00 with free shipping and its too high,. Or was you just stating that otterbox in general are too high

Well $9 plus $3 is $12 .
But it's not that bad a deal. Last I checked I could get the Samsung TPU for $15 with a discount. The normal price is $30. I figured it might help some peeps that are interested. If not, then no harm done by posting the link.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium

OP, thanks for sharing the info with us!! I had already been interested in the white Samsung TPU case, and considering getting it. When I saw this deal I just couldn't pass it up!! I already have the white Samsung Flip Cover, an Incipio case, and another case, so I'll probably rarely use this case but just had to have it. For every phone I've ever had I always buy way too many cases, and normally just carry the phone naked. Oh well, it's just money after all. Lol. Thanks for sharing! I've never dealt with either company before, so I'm hoping that shipping doesn't take too long. I'm looking forward to receiving this in the mail! Thanks again!!
EDIT : Oh, and for anyone looking; Best Buy sells the Samsung Flip Cover for $39.99 plus tax (saw them in store yesterday). So $12.95 shipped is a GREAT deal!

Before I pull the trigger on this. I get to the screen where it says "purchase" but don't believe I had the option to pick the color. This is extremely dumb if I don't have a choice in this, white cover wouldn't go so nicely with my titanium note. Anyway is this just me or can someone confirm I'm doing something wrong. Thanks.
