Hi
I was wondering about a aluminium battery cover but keeping NFC function and came across these
Anyone tried them, any good?
I actually just ordered one of those (without the antenna), I'm not expecting NFC to work but I ordered one of the stick-on antennas anyway... will probably be a while until I can test it as the antenna is shipping from China.

Those antenna stickers do nothing.

If you want NFC buy one with NFC on it, they do make them, I am currently waiting for a response from the amazon seller, as soon as I hear from them I may get one and post a review.

Have not seen this anywhere so far, does anyone have any more details (price or pictures). I have only seen it listed in the Samsung website at:
http://www.samsung.com/ae/microsite/galaxynote/note2/en/spec.html?type=find
See the section Optional Contents. Looks to be a non-flip open face protective cover I think.
I have this cover, I got it on preorder. Now I do not have access to a good camera to take pictures of the phone in case, but I can make some photos with old Nokia I recommend this case, it is very cool, fit perfect. This case cost about 15£/20€
Can you please give us the link Where you bought it.I cant find it anywhere
thank you

I have seen some knock off type ones on eBay. I like the looks of this cover a lot. It fully protects the edges of the phone.

From Samsung's website it appears to be a hard plastic back with a soft (silicone) border.
There is a code for 50% off ---> rE155266e

Just ordered mine from the Samsung website. Used the coupon code and got 50% off. Came to $20 including shipping. So excited. Just what I was looking for. Keep the look of the phone, but protect from drops (silicone around the edge). Bonus, it covers up some of the ugly Verizon labeling. Now just to fix that home screen button!

Looks good.. only problem is if the back is aluminum it will impact antenna performance. I've tried aluminum cases on other phones that take a bar or two off wifi/3G and kill GPS entirely.
The NFC not work with an non-official cover.

false...NFC worked perfectly fine with my nexus s 4g with a cheap, plasticy "S-shape" case. Near Field communication is generally not affected unless, yes, possibly, with an aluminum case so u may be half right
The Note 2's NFC antenna is on the cover. Most 3rd party replacements don't have it.
It's appeared. The selling begin the 3 November 2012 here.

I have one for the S3 and I LOVE IT!! Best $20 bucks I ever spent on a phone battery. My worry with this one though is no mention of NFC on it. The Note 2 has NFC on the case again not on the battery like the S3. If this has NFC then you will officially have a phone that lasts longer than a Tablet

No NFC, no thanks.
I bought one of these (can't post links, but do a search on ebay for note 2 7600 and you'll find it). Decided if I was going to extend the battery I might as well do it properly, and a 7600MA battery is about as big as I could find! Figured if it was crap I'd only wasted £15! Turns out it's rather good. It does add a bit of depth to the phone (about 10mm), but for me at least it actually makes it more comfortable in my hand. And it has the added bonus of keeping the camera lens away from whatever surface the phone is on. Can't comment on whether the nfc works or not I'm afraid as it's not something I use.

Why don't they charge $6 more and put the NFC antenna on these things? The batteries are great, but without NFC, going forward are going to lose my business.
Does anyone know where to buy these apart from Amazon (for non US buyers)

Mine came with a piece of crap NFC that didn't even work. I ended up using the one from the stock case and scotch taped it to the phone. Lol works just like the OEM backplate now. It only looks bad when you show off the battery.
Funny enough I've had four different backplates and the only two that worked were the OEM ones.

Looking to pick up a metal bumper but I don't want the kind that slide together. I purchased one of those from Ebay a few months ago and I wasn't very happy with it. Looking for something that is a little better quality. The Sweet Armor looked good but it is no longer available in black. Any suggestions?
The draco looks nice, but I can't find any one who has one with our phone for an opinion

first vid i found of it. the red one looks sick..but like all metal bumpers including this one - you will suffer one bar loss if not more depending on your signal strength in your area.

Yes it does, I just wish it wasn't $90.00.
I have a Thunder Gray Draco sitting in my mailbox. I'll get pics and do a review when I get home. When I had a Sweet Armor case on my S3 there was no signal loss. The Draco for some reason did drop one bar. Call quality and data connection wise, I didn't notice a difference. I'll check it and see what happens tonight.
iPhone 5 has their antennas all along the aluminum sides. When you put a aluminum bumper on top of that, you're doubling the interference.
Samsung phones are some type of polymer / plastic. Not as much interference. That's why Draco has cases that are half aluminum and half plastic for the iPhone. If there were really issues with reception interference, they would have switch the S3 cases to half and half as well.
Have you seen this one?

I think the issue I had with it is that there is a cutout for the antenna that the Asian version of the phone has. If it didn't have that cutout, I would've gotten it.
