anyone know if they are going to make one for note 2
Have you tried contacting them? Usually they won't have one until it is released in the US.

yes fired them an email today
They put protector tint on my ex galaxy s III back door. It was excellent job.
Is it worth using it instead of a case for body protection?
I haven't used any zagg shields before but à friend of mine had one on his nexus one, and it was looking awful..

In the Galaxy Note 10.1 forums, many complain that the Zagg feels terrible with the rubbery S Pen tip. Drags a lot, they recommended those crystal clear ones like those from ClearPlex. I dont think they have one for the note II yet tho.

There are a number of them available from Amazon. The Galaxy Note Zagg/BodyGuardz had the same issue.

Zagg sucks go for a Glas.T when they're out or if u can't wait go for the crystal Spigen available on amazon right now

I hope best skins ever make one for note 2 I allways use them much better than zagg and cheaper.
If I'm not mistaken, doesn't the user manual recommend NOT using a screen protector? Something about it interfering with the S-Pen.
But yeah, I'd go with something other than the invisibleshield, as stated above it adds a lot of friction (in my experience) and you get a sort of orange-peel effect.
FYI looks like they ship 10/24-10/26 for those who were waiting

Ok, call me crazy, but I find myself wondering how much use I will get out of the pen. I am used to android and navigating with my fingers. As well my ipad too.
What about the zagg HD it feels just like glass compared to normal or anti-glare zagg I don't think it will feel too rubbery. I've had zagg since my hero days and I love them. I'm waiting for US release of GN2 and I'm pretty sure I'm going to get zagg HD for it as long as one comes out for it. I'll report back and let you guys know how it is.

I have ordered Xtreme Guard shield for my GN2. I used them on my GS3 as well and price is reasonable.

Anyone ever use Skinomi? I have a friend that always uses Skinomi screen protectors (and a full body guard once I believe) and always gets a PDAir case. I've never used them, but he swears by them.

In my experience the Xtremeguard quality was less than stellar. I've tried a few wet application urethane manufacturers and found the Xoskins were excellent with good customer support, but they are more expensive.

As an FYI, the skin protectors are good against scratches not drops. I know it's common sense but I had a perfectly self applied zagg shield on my Nexus One and it fell off my night stand and the screen broke. After that I went out and bought a Seidio Surface Case and haven't looked back.
They had a Zagg skin on the display model of the original note I tried out at Target and it really didn't work very well with the S-pen, as stated too much drag, felt awful. Something between that feel and the too slick feel of the naked screen would be perfect. I thought I had that right after applying the Spigen Ultra Crystal, it was just right initially but it became as slick as the glass after a little finger oil accumulated.
Keep away from this guys the zagg for note2 really not good i hv bought one from bestbuy before yesterday and i have regret to buy, toutching is not good, all not good at all, i just west 27 usd for nothing, ill go and buy sgp from amazon

Here's another option:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009UWAIEC/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=A19R3BN6ZSO9A1
Much cheaper and more readily available, although I'm sure that Case-Mate case is probably better built and stronger.
american sites are a joke,they charge us in UK over $25 for shipment and if you in USA want to buy anything from UK shops it will cost you only £3.50,stuppid,i would never recommend anyone get from them is a rip off

Looks like a nice case, but unfortunately the kickstand appears to be landscape only.

Found this:
http://www.fommy.com/view-full-page.php?skuno=94947
The Amzer from Fommy is generic and is tough to find at the moment. Was thinking of purchasing 30 or 50 for around $5 and reselling. Make around $5-6 a pop and it'd be worthwhile to throw a mailing label on it and give to the postman. Could do some of them as a group buy on here for cost if there was enough interest. I really want the one I link to in the bottom paragraph.
I have a similar one that has a jointed kickstand on the case itself which serves as a great fingerhold to make the phone more one hand-able. Though you could do the same with the Amzer one if you left it in the holster, screen out. It just adds to the bulk. I just had this one ship which is the same as the other amazon link, but actually in stock. Not sure how that stand will work as a finger hold, but we'll see.
This is the one I have for the S3, and I hope they make it for the Note 2 as that will definitely be my go to case with it. I get the tips of my fingers resting comfortable at the far edge of the case. Raise my hand higher and allows my thumb to easily extend to every part of the phone. It's the gripping of the far edge that makes the larger phones less one handed.
I found this one. It's not a name brand that I've heard of but it's a dual layer case with a kickstand.

Flygrip
If you don't need the case and are only looking for the kickstand, try FlyGrip. Mine got mailed out today, so I can't say how they work on the Note 2 yet.
However, he made videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/FLYGRIPinc
He also gives away a gel case if you want one.
These guys make great cases.

im going to wait, but some might not be so patient
and yes, they have kickstands

I bought the same case for my gs II, the clip broke on the second day. Also, the phone was very loose. I expect the same for this Note II model.

Well I'll find out by the end of the week. I just bought 100 of them. Get the itch to resell once in a while. If they're loose, I'll let you know. They've had good reviews in general. I'm using the tpu kickstand one now because it was cheap. The standard is okay. Have to trim down another invisible shield because they cut them too big and it's peeling around some of the edges. If any one throws on a protector, make sure it's cut small enough to come inside that raised glass edge.

I posted a few pics of this case in some other threads but after a few days with the case i feel its needs its own thread. This case is an awesome case. I purchased it for $40 at an at&t store and replaced my sprint bodyglove with it. The cas3 feels better in my hand then the bodyglove. It definitely feels like it would protect better if i drop it. It fits very good nice and tight. It has a really nice gloss finish and the kickstand really comes in handy when my sons watching movies. I was gona get the otterbox commuter but im liking this case so much i think this ones a keeper. I highly reccomend this case

Thanks for the quick review! I was hoping to get this case as well. I had it for my Galaxy S2 way back when (I won it online, hehe) and absolutely fell in love with it.
I don't understand why Case Mate says they weren't going to make this case, and it's already for sale, just not on their website. Exclusivity? I don't know... Lame!
I hope speck comes out with the Pixel HD case, I loved it
I bought this case today at att. I also just got my phone today.
So odd, after putting the case on my phone acts weird now. It powers off randomly and shuts off when I unplug it from a charge (occasionally)

Hmmm so far i havent had any issues. Also i had this case for my s3 bc like now it was the only good case that seem to be instock when the phone 1st came out and also just like now i had to buy it from an at&t store. But once the s3 was out for about a month as we all know every company was pumping out cases and i was switching cases every week. Ended up with an atomic green commuter but was about to go back to the casemate then i sold my s3. Its an awesome case

Have been using the very same case for almost two weeks now, and so far it's been the best case for me. I gave away the seidio surface to the at&t store, and a couple of eBay cases, since this pop will be a daily driver for the near future. If only they made the same in black, I'd switch...

I like the Pop Case as well. I had it for the GS2, GS3 and now the Note 2. It's very solid for protection and there is enough edge covered to protect the phone when it is turned face down. My favorite things about the case is the grip. It's enough to securely hold the phone and not too much that you have to battle to take it out of your pocket. The power and volume buttons are covered just right as far as no accidental presses while still being easy to press.
I don't use the kickstand too much but it could be made more solid as the hinge feels very fragile. It does work however in both portrait or landscape placement.

It's also worth mentioning that, unlike most cases like it (at least the ones I've seen), the rubber edge sits perfectly around the edge and does not touch the glass. And it is completely solid and does not move at all, so there is no accidentally slipping it off and loosing protection.

Beware of the quality of Pop! cases, I had one for my SGS2, the edges started to loosen up in a couple of weeks, it's no match for Case-Mate Tough Case series...

In case people want to see what it looks like, I'm posting pics. Obviously, it won't provide as much protection as, say, an Otterbox Defender or a UAG but it looks pretty nice. It adds very little bulk and the cutouts are pretty much perfect.
I'm extremely happy with it, even though the shipping to my country cost me more than the actual case.
And pardon the quality of the pictures. I rarely take pictures so I'm not very good at it.

I like the fact that it covers the bottom and top where most thin cases are lacking. I may have to look into this.

It should be available now, unless Cruzerlite makes them on a per-order basis. If that's the case, it only took a couple of days before I was notified that they had already shipped it.

At $10, you can't go wrong. But it is really thin and fits really well. I don't think you'll be disappointed should you decide to get one.

So far, I haven't had any trouble holding on to it at all and it doesn't really feel like I'm gripping my phone any more tightly than I did before. I can imagine why you'd be concerned, though, given the finish. But yeah, with my 'normal' grip, it doesn't feel like it's in any danger of slipping out of my hand/s.
Thanks awestrike. I will put in my order tonight.

It sure is nice looking case, but I changed back to Samsung Note 2 original case almost immediately. Material is much more slippery in xda-case and build quality is okay, but not great.

Just ordered a hard back case from http://shop.portenzo.com/hardback-for-nexus-10/ £39 including shipping to the uk which isn`t bad.
I had the Poetic slimline before but after 6 months or so it is falling apart the glue has failed on the front cover so the leather/plaastic has come away from the metal inserts.
i`ll post pics/review once i get it
This looks really nice. I got the worst possible case, and it permanently damaged the exterior of my Nexus. So I'm looking for the best possible case right now.
