Make no mistake, the Galaxy Note II is an awesome phone.
If you don't mind competing with the Jones's, with the latest tech, and you can get hold of a Note II, you won't be disappointed.
To date, I've been using this phone with little if no stability problems at all.
Problem is, my phone needs a replacement case
Currently my Note II is protected by a Spigen Illuzion case:

I've searched the net all over for a replacement Spigen case, but everywhere it says the case have been discontinued.:crying:
Note II fans, what other case would you guys and girls suggest I get? :highfive:
Sure, there's 100's of post for the ideal Note II case. But this is the year 2015, and many cases for our phone, is being discontinued.
Please suggest some more cases, which uses a Press-stud to close the case with. - magnets doesn't work with this phone..
Let's keep the Samsung Galaxy Note II alive!!!
UAG case..
Drops off so many times but the case is still good. My Note2 is still fresh as new.

Thanks for your reply LuckySwitz.
Problem is, besides that cases are being discontinued left, right and centre, I need a FLIP cover.
UAG makes awesome cases, from research, but I need one which will cover the screen too.
I can't suggest anything coz this is the case I've used since I bought my Note2.

I just bought 2 Otterbox cases for my Note 2 off Ebay 8.50 ea. With free shipping. Highly recommend this case.

Been using the Otterbox defender clone for more than a year. Fits perfectly in my hand.
Bought it around $12 from local online store in indonesia.
Those two Otterbox cases don't use a press stud, like OP wants, lol.
Nothing special. Bumper for me is better...
I most recently moved on from some uber bulky protective case to the OEM Samsung flip wallet case. Unfortunately, I had to go through Amazon.fr (French Amazon) to get it, but it's a really nice OEM flip wallet case that has held up really well. It's nice to have something more minimalistic rather than the armored cases I've been using since I got the phone three years ago.
If you don't mind waiting about 10 days to receive it (if you live in the US), here's the link:

I just ordered two cases from a Russian online shop named Xcom-Shop, one called SGP Valentinus Black and another named SGP illusion Zen Black that seems the one you are using.

Looking for the d30 Case that Samsung advertised with the Tab launch. I tried ordering it from fommy.com but what they shipped is the Easel Case. Unfortunately after confirming the sku, the Easel Case is all they have, thus sending this back. Anyone have one of these or know where to get one? Here's a link to some photos of it.
http://www.fommy.com/view-full-page...model=Samsung+GALAXY+Tab+GT-P1000&skuno=89875
Again, photos on this site are incorrect. They do not actually have this.
Most uscellular stores carry these.
Thanks, but looks like none in my vicinity. Also not listed on their website. Anywhere else? I'm on the East Coast, USA.
I dont like the case as it partially covers up the 4 main buttons on the bottom. Maybe i got a bad one but to use it properly i am going to have to do a bit of modding to it.
The cases we received in Norway (official Samsung case) are slightly different. There is no leather covering the front of the Tab at all. It is held in with plastic corners that grab the edge of the Tab itself. Very nice and very thin. The back is plastic and the front is leather.

I have the Samsung d30 case, and I'd personally not bother if I was to do it again.
Whilst mine fits ok in the case, when I try to use it as a stand it is pretty useless.
Regards,
Dave

Thanks, that's the leather snap on case. We have that here as well. Originally wanted a full book style case, but am now rethinking it. I picked up a cheap but nice padded pouch that fits the Tab great. Now am thinking to just get a snap on to protect the back like the one you posted. In any case, this new case will carry me over for now. Here are some snaps. Paid $14 at Wally World (Walmart)

Hi,
I have two Otterbox defender cases for the international HD2.
One of them is missing the belt clip so it is like the Commuter.
Apart from that the cases are in good condition.
Please suggest your price.
I can aslo do it via Ebay.
Hey Davidez2,
Where are you located btw? And what about shipping costs?
Can you put up a few pictures (or a video) of both the cases so people can take a look?
PM me.

Hi,
I'm from Israel.
Shipping will be 10$ worldwide.
i will try to get some pictures but in general these are two otterbox defender cases - one of them just misses the belt clip.
Hi,
I have 2 otterbox defender cases in good condition.
I sold my HD2 (european version) and the buyer didnt want the cases so i would like to sell them separately.
One case comes complete with belt clip and with a slot for stylus as you can see in the pictures.
The other case comes as a case alone without the belt clip (like commuter).
I mainly want to sell but interesting exchanges are also welcomed.

If you still have these can you PM me please. I'm after an otterbox for my HD2.
Are there any differences in the HD2's in the UK compared to those sold in Europe?
shouldn't this post belong to Marketplace?
Using HD2 from past 2 Years.. Fallen Numerous times.. very solid build.. negligible wear and tear. only sign of wear in on metallic battery cover which partially lost its coating.
Are the cases still available?
Has anyone bought/used these before, and do they work? I have an s-line tpu case and wondered if its worth it to upgrade to this. -Ara
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Amzer is a pretty decent company to buy from, and the skins are somewhat inexpensive. They sent me a few demo items to see if our stores were interested in carrying their Nexus 7 products... The overall fit was pretty snug, the skin seems fairly well made minus the edges which needed a little cleaning up. I didn't have any issues with the skin obstructing any features of the device, and it was easy to slip on and off. Here's a few pictures, hope they help with the decision making:

Here's the link to their product page for those interested
If you have any more questions please feel free to ask.
So just a little more feedback on this silicone skin... I dropped my Nexus 7 while getting out of my Jeep this morning (hands full and in a hurry to get to the office), and the blasted thing landed face down on concrete. If not for this skin I would instead be spending my evening searching for a replacement screen. It's by no means an otterbox, but the fact that it covers around the screen saved it.
Definitely give it two thumbs up!
Amzer silicone case
I got the black one bought at Expansys.com. It feels great, very thick rubber with a leather-like texture, reinforced with the x-shaped, thicker rubber piece in the middle that serves as an outer skeleton and adds extra rigidity. The case wraps around of all of the device without obstructing any holes/ports similarly to an otterbox impact cases.The edges serve the protective purpose. There is nothing wrong with them. They are spaced out more like the protruding edges of balistic cases. I feel confident that if my Nexus falls it will bounce off without any damage due to the case design. I store my Nexus when not in use in the bag inside a Case Logic Eva zippered case for additional screen protection.
We just reviewed one here at the office and the case does a pretty decent job. Not expensive either, so, I'd say worth the purchase.

This needs a bump, I ordered one from amazon.. and it was crap to say the least. I contacted Amzer and even though i ordered from a third party seller they offered to replace it for me for FREE! gotta love customer service! Other than that its a great case. :good:
Nice case!
I have the black one ordered from amazon as well.. It came in very quick . I agree this will protect the device from most bumps and bangs. this is the 3rd case i bought .
I am going to sell all 3 on ebay for a good price if i decide against buying another nexus 7.. not made my mind up. sent two back not sure i wanna deal with the hassles of google device support to order another..
anyway GREAT CASE for the money..

Got it at a local AT&T store, you can check stores' inventory on their site.
Thanks for the pictures, any other comments on it?
Also, the price is pretty steep for a case like this. Did you pay full price?

With my experience, the backside of this case will get scuffs and scratches on it big time. Had one for my Infuse and Note 1. I wouldn't recommend it.
....The Case-Mate POP Case - Samsung Galaxy Note® II is similar in size to this one but has a stand and doesn't scuff up. I had one but returned it for another case at AT&T just yesterday.
I like it so far. Adds a decent amount of weight to the phone, not too much bulk.
I like the overall shape of the phone better with it.
Button feel is the best of any case i've used on any phone. Soft but taticle.
thanks. but for for $38 nah. maybe $25

I know what you mean, I had a candyshell years ago and it got scuffed up pretty quick. Why did you return the Case-Mate?
Yeah, I paid full retail... but I work for TMo, so having the discount on my plan makes it OK to splurge on an accessory now and then
I had one of these on my HTC Inspire (2 actually, different colors) I loved it, I will be buying one of these once Speck starts selling them and not just AT&T.
Waiting for different colors. Hurry up Speck. Speck always has discounts so no worries regarding the full price.
In my experience, specks has push candyshell cases out with steep price for a while now. They lost my interests when they release ugly version for iPhone 4 with giant camera cut out. Overall it looks OK but bulky and like many have said too glossy thus scratches can be seen easily. I would rather get a pixel skin HD if it comes out.
I love the look, the protection appears solid but the retail price is too high for my taste. Since I'm a battery swapper is the case easy to remove?

yup. just push from the camera and it pops out.
I found this 25% off accessories coupon on the internet and used it at an AT&T corporate store today. Came out to $31 with tax. It didn't work on their website.
Found on a local store very cheap about 5 us dollars
Couldnt find it on ebay or amazon was shocked to find this in a small local store !
The back is hard crystal with clear tpu all around 100% satisfied ! Bought 2 hhhhhh

Do you have that case? Wonder if it fits the att note 2 I have
The polycarbonate clear shells look good new but they get scuffed real easily
Cool! Nice thing about plastic is that if it gets scratched you can buff it out and repolish, right? I'd miss my kickstand, though.
Sadly no brand name just a plastic cover. Even the store said its just a chineese case not a brand. I like it so much as its totally clear not frosted and even the lip is tpu clear raised to protected the screen and all of all its only 5 dollars.
And yes plastic scuffes easy but not visible.

Had this type of case on my note 1. It was a good case but made the phone a bit heavier.
It looks great!
Nice

Looks like a scratch magnet to me.
There is an all clear one on Amazon but it's not $5
That's a nice case that shows off the beautiful design and color. However, you should know that hard plastic may etch into your $250 phone.
I like the look of these cases but I've seen them yellow and that's my concern.

Yes tpu does yellow. Does anyone know how to clean it?
Soap and water
looks damn good. been looking for one that is like this online
I ended up grabbing this clear case off of amazon to go with some skins I purchased. It's just a hard plastic case and for ~$8 it makes me feel a bit safer. The fit is great (although I do have a skin that adds some, albeit very little, width) and when it's snapped on it is ON. It's mainly to tide me over until I find a great place to buy some custom cases but I have no complaints for the moment.
