So, I want to have it all with my new Galaxy note 2. I am thinking of getting a leather wallet case, either something like the Valentinus or a cheaper one from eBay. My idea is to get one of the larger ones if possible, remove the hard plastic tray and install something with full edge protection and maybe some cushioning. The wallet part should have a decent number of card pockets (3 minimum) and a place to hold a bit of cash.
Does anyone have suggestions regarding which of these wallet cases is the roomiest, and which lightly protective cases (ideally brown or black) might be slim enough to fit the bill? If I succeed I will post a tutorial so that others may follow in my footsteps.
And yes, it is a question, but only sort of and it really is of interest more to the accessories crowd, so mea culpa if this is the wrong forum.

Hello! Is anyone using a case for their Note? I've been debating on trying to get one, but I don't even know if they exist; doesn't seem to be many on Amazon yet. Do you find you need one? I'd like to protect my phone as it's very thin and difficult to hold, and I have big hands. Thanks!

If you're looking for something cheap & simple, then this might do the trick:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nylon-Black-Leather-Case-Pouch-Sleeve-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-i9220-N7000-/160700069388?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item256a78760c
I use this case myself and actually like it more than another more expensive one that I bought. It's only $3.00, too.
I'm satisfied with my Rearth Ringke Slim but it was a bit pricey @ $27.99 (Free US Shipping). I went with the Matte Black since I was told by Rearth it was a bit softer. It's very thin and there's a lip above the screen so you can lay it face down. I really liked the USB and Audio port caps/plugs to protect them from dust/lint. That's what really sold me. The most disappointing thing about it is that the case does not cover the buttons and half of the metallic blue sides so there's potential for them to be scuffed/scratched.
EDIT: Also - it includes a screen protector. I got it on with no bubbles - but it does pick up fingerprints and dust quite easily.
Check the accessories forum, plenty of cases in there.
I like this one: www.ebay.ca/itm/180767635564 . There are a lot on ebay.

I always uses Mecuary case. No problems so far..
my White Note using SGP Case Ultra Capsule Series(Black Color)
There is a website called DealExtreme, its a fantastic website for a lot of things, including galaxy note cases.
Its a US site, but has free international shipping, and the cases are quite cheap.
Now this is a case I use which is great: http://dxurl.com/R31D
Also, check out some other cases here: http://dxurl.com/Rskn
Good luck!
Also a good place to find some screen protectors.
Very pleased with this one as it has a kick stand

Hello Everybody
I was using a film based full body protector for many of my Mobile Phone previously and have encountered lot of problems with it.
Those so called full body protectors are beautiful and invisible only for few days.
It would start accumulating dust very quickly and edge would be pop out too.
May be edges stick permanently in invisibleshield, but that item is very expensive for me, also it would attract dust too.
So, i wanted to try thin cases at the same time not spend too much more money on the solution either.
I have short-listed two options for me.
Capdase Soft Jacket 2 Xpose Solid Black Version.
INCIPIO FEATHER
Rubberized Hard Back Case Cover Pouch
iCare Black TPU Gel Case
INCIPIO Feather is not available in my country straight-forwardly.
So, the import charges is so much high.
I am not sure whether Capdase Soft Jacket 2 Xpose is such a nice product after all.
Is this much better than Silicone Cases ?
Also please take a look at the other two links i have included which are available in ebay in my country.
I'll appreciate if people upload photos of the Google Nexus S mobile phone fitted with Capdase Soft Jacket 2 Xpose.
Also, i welcome suggestions on even better or similar products.
I want to protect my mobile phone from attracting dust or getting scratches without making it appear too big, the case not need to protect it from drops.
I bought some tpu s curve case off of amazon a few weeks ago. I like it. I'm on the road right now, but if you type it into a search, you should get a result. Only downfalls are that the holes are not 100% lined up. Off by a sliver, but you really wouldn't notice. And the buttons take a little more effort to press. I don't have any problems with it though.

That is case is not available for Google Nexus S in my country.
It is available only for Galaxy Nexus.
Can anybody post HQ photos of Capdase Soft Jacket 2 Xpose Solid Black Version fitted in Google Nexus S?
Hello Everybody
I have finally ordered a solid black version of Capdase Soft Jacket Xpose 2.
I can understand that many of you here have moved to full body protector from a case.
I am doing the reverse, and i am not sure whether or not i am doing the right thing.
But, i have been applying the full body protector from a local vendor for several of my phones and experienced following problems.
1) edges getting open.
2) Hard to clean dust containment in many parts.
I am hoping to solve both the problems along with some accidental drop protection using a case.
I am not sure whether Capdase Soft Jacket Xpose 2 would fit the bill.
Fingers crossed.
Hello everybody
I received the case few weeks ago.
I am happy with its appearance and the protection it offers.
Only catch was I paid around 10$ for this product.
But I found very similar cases for less than one dollar in sunsky online after purchase .

Hey guys, just ordered a Note 2, so stoked.
I am looking for a case that doesn't add a lot of bulk but still has all sides covered (why do they remove top/bottom or corners??), and has enough lip on the front to protect the screen. I was pretty interested in the Bodyglove case, but it can't be bought in Europe, where I live.
Any suggestions?

Body glove case is nice. Buuuuut, the lip prevents edge interaction the way the lips stands up. Using quick controls on aosp browser can be frustrating because of this. See the diztronics on Samsung protective cover + to see how it should be. I have both. As much as I like diztronic cases the OEM SAMSUNG case is very nice. Both though aren't up to my specifications for edge protection. The clear or smoked tpu's are usually much fire and in some cases a bit thicker. I am awaiting DBA cases to come out with their ultra case which seems to be perfect. You get a tpu line, x shaped plastic shell to protect corners and if the pictures do it Justice, you don't get otter box bulk. Either way, I would highly recommend any of the cases I just mentioned over the body glove. The diztronics is the cheapest and least flashy of all of them and you support an independent business owner at the same time.
I wish clay from diztronic would still sell screen protectors though. Too many people claiming warranty on them even though he was barely selling above cost and was losing money on them. Good example of what happens when you let your first world problems and penny pinching ways get in the way of good business and good product. Lose out on a high quality product he sold on the side to make people happy but his bank account couldn't afford it.

Thank you for the replies. I think I'll go for the Diztronic, as I like the matte better than the glossy Samsung protective cover.
Other suggestions are still welcome.

Hi all,
As above, looking for a leather pouch that is a good(not too tight) fit for the edge
Must either have a pull strap to get the phone out (and be a reasonably tight fit so it doesn't fall out)
or
Must be a sensible fit with a flip magnetic clip to hold the phone from falling out
Anyone seen any that are released yet for UK buyers?
Thanks!
Reiko or Cellbee. Both are on Amazon. I haven't used Cellbee before but it has good reviews.
My Reiko is still holding up well after 2 years.

Thanks I'll take a look!
KAVAJ do some nice leather pouches and cases too (genuine not fake PU cap leather)
The below is their first product which I'm getting for s6 edge. Their rest of the portfolio line up will follow suit
Of if you just want premium leather pouch then go for a company like hard graft (but they are very expensive)
Rebecca Minkoff
Try searching for Rebecca Minkoff leather pouch for s6. I am still not allowed to post pictures of the item but I guess that is the pouch you are looking for.
Search this Euro ebay like store for uniquely designed goods. Many wallets and pouches https://www.etsy.com/
Thanks for all suggestions
Will check them out
Budget it around £30 (slightly more maybe depending on quality / any guarantee offered)

Casemate clear fron Verizon
I have had experience with the clear Casemate case from verizon for a few days now. Its probably the worst case ive ever had. Terrible design, uses adhesive to adhere the front screen piece and easily come off with any pressure against it. Rear case holds just fine but is incredibly thick and changes the device into a boxy phone. Needless to say save your money and get a different case
Cool, thanks! Let us know how you like any of the ones you order.
I was thinking a possible case idea would be a rear TPU case that adheres with adhesive, but then has an extended flexible rubber that overlaps the screen edges. Then you could fold back the rubber when you want to swivel. Just a brainstorm, not sure how it would work in a practical use.
Just pulled the trigger on a case and protector from a Korean website (GMarket)

Just received my case from design skin I got the LG Wing Mix Two Pocket Card Case - Black/Yellow so far I like it way better than the case I got from Verizon that one was the worst case I ever got especially the front cover I think came off so easily.
Just got the Spigen case. It's a hard plastic case and it stays on using sticky pads. We'll see how long it lasts but it feels high quality and nice.

That's what I ordered today,it's the only one that's somewhat available ATM. No cases in stock at any of the carriers in my area.
Spigen quality is always top-notch, definitely no worries there & the price on it is reasonable.
If You guys get some good cases. Please leave links

This case came yesterday. I like the way it feels and the protection is good on the back half of the phone. It's not too slippery. I don't know that I could have expected anything more. ?
