Hey all,
I just got my Note 5 recently but have yet to get a case because I'm undecided! I've been looking at wallet style cases but the ones I've seen online for the most part look like cheap flimsy pleather and I'm not a fan.. However I came across this:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Verus-Genuin...62049429657?var=&hash=item3d035cf899#shpCntId
Looks real nice, but I cannot for the life of my find a review online in any format about it. Does anyone have this case by chance or have any experience with it (maybe from other phone models)? I'd like some feedback before spending the cash on it.
Thanks.

It does look good but given that many of those folio/wallet cases feature magnets, I would ask the seller if the case has hidden magnets that may hamper SPen functions.

Just wondering if you actually bought that case. I'm still looking for a good leather wallet case and I would love to get your feedback on that one if you got it.

the case is great. great quality good protection. the only con is the magnet. even with the magnet i still have bought 2 of them for my note 4 and 5. eventually it will make a spot on the screen where the pen doesnt work. sorry i just checked the actual link. so this one doesnt look like it has the magnet. mine is the one with it. i can see there being an issue with keeping it closed without a magnet. i have 5 cards in mine and the magnet is needed.

I asked the seller before buying and he said there are no magnets. Hope that's true because it's one of the reasons I don't buy wallet cases usually. That and it adds bulk.
It looks nice but those pocket not so. Is there any leather case out there without the pocket on the left? I think magnet is a good idea to keep the cover close in a drop.

Any case with a magnet will create a dead spot on your screen when using the Spen.

The case sold on Google Play is completely different. It has a cover over the screen that you open like a book, and it's made out of TPU. The Incipio case is a hard case, with no cover on the front. The Play store also charges tax and shipping, so that $20 ends up costing $32.83. The Incipio case is only $24.99 on Amazon. Tax is about $2.37, and if you have Amazon Prime shipping is free. That comes out to $27.36, which is a better deal IF you are looking for a low profile hard case.

Thank you very much!
seems like a pretty solid case that doesn't add too much thickness to the device. my only gripe is that it doesn't hug the borders enough, i mean if you were to drop it on a corner, it would still get damaged or scratched to some degree. please correct me if i am wrong on that
Not to threadcrap but for 25 bucks....doesn't seem worth it. A tpu case that's 4 bucks shipped seems to be on par with this case

Have you purchased both so that you have an actual comparison, or are you just assuming?
TPU cases add much more bulk than a slim hard plastic case. Just look at the pictures for a TPU case. You can see by looking at the cutouts for the buttons and speakers that there is considerable bulk added. The Incipio Feather case is much thinner. Similar to the Poetic Element case, which is also a slim fitting hard plastic case.

yes, but how does this compared to other hard shell cases from ebay for less than half the cost?

I completely agree with that. I usually buy cheapos on ebay, too. But, I haven't seen many hard plastic cases for the N7. Just lots of TPU's. I actually went with the Poetic Element case for $15 shipped.
I am looking for the best REAL leather case that anyone knows of that will be out. Or even some high quality leather case maker that you have used on another phone that you do not know if it will come out. I am tired of searching and I like the zenus but before I commit to 60+ on a case (I rarely buy cases so this is going to be the one I commit to) I would like to see all the best options and opinions
This is what I've been eyeing.....

Wish I could find one that for the card slots had a clear cover for one so I can stick my license in it, and have it be visible.
I have this one and very happy with it : w ww.pdair.com/index.php/leather-case-for-samsung-galaxy-note-ii-n7100-flip-type-black-1.html (sorry link restriction for new member prevent to post a working link)

Then you have the ones from China.. Ebay obviously has a lot. This is one of the few that stood out to me ww w.ebay.com/itm/Brown-Deluxe-Leather-Card-Stand-Flip-Wallet-Case-for-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-2-N7100-/130792440457?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1e73d64289
Be warned with that last one, it has a magnet clasp, I was going to tear out the magnet and install a snap if I had purchased the case. I did not want to wait for it to arrive from China though.
Once the Spigen case gets here I will do a review and upload a couple photos. (New member restrictions permitting :laugh: )
Apparently I am no good at searching since I have never seen any of these except the pdair and spigen

No problem, just another forewarning that it has a magnetic clasp system. It might affect the screen, creating a dead spot while in the case. Not too sure if it can cause permanent issues just know there was a thread going around warning about the issues with magnet cases. I'm also assuming for that price that its faux leather, just another aspect of the case to bear in mind. Other than that it does look pretty nice :good:

Yeah, my hope is the magnet is too weak to cause issues.
This will be my theme park case so I can consolidate my wallet and phone into one.
And for the price I won't mind if it takes some damage unlike the cases that are 4-5x as much.
Let us know about the one you ordered, that can be my professional case... lol

UPDATE!
Ordered the TUDIA case from Amazon. It does the trick. It's not the same as her old soft silicon case for the S3, but she can fit her ID and credit card under the back and removing them is not much of a hassle. Great case for $7 btw...

Hi all,
My fiance LOVES the cheap jelly, silicone case on her S3 because she can put her ID and credit card behind it and leave her purse at home. It's an ill-fitting, crappy case, but it does the trick. It's loose enough that she can just take off the top bit and remove/insert her cards.
We now both have the VZW G2 and I'm looking for something similar in use. I'd prefer she had a real, fitted case that had a CC slot or pouch on the back, but I don't know if the weird camera/button layout will allow for it. Does anybody have any ideas?
thanks!

I love this wallet case so far, but limited space
Was pretty hopeless like most Verizon LG G2 owners because most wallet cases available on online were for international, att, etc versions - other words anything than ours.
A week ago curious about what verizon stores offered and found....
BELKIN wallet case- smells like real leather, holds cards, can fold into a horizontal stand and has proper cutouts in back. And it is NOT bulky- Price was $29.99 but used company discount 20%. Love it so far but fear that the plastic tab that holds the case close may break with repetitive use but supposedly the case has a lifetime warranty. We shall see how the tab holds up.
Here are some pics.
I keep a small screen cloth in between leather back and case that holds phone.
Also able to stuff 3 cards in holder with no problem.
And the notches where the card holder is located is a notch holder for three different angles for horizontal viewing.
Just bumping the thread as I found the case that works for this. Updated original post too.

I've heard that the phone doesn't fit that well in the case as well as tops/bottoms can fall off. Is that true?
It was a little loose but not that bad at all, so what I did, was I bought 3 of those FULL 90% off full body Xtreme Guardz(Posted in this section) and put them on(Front and back) and the case is actually nice and snug now! Actually It is hard to take it off,lol. But not really hard but with the protectors on the case fits extremely well!!

It was a little loose but not that bad at all, so what I did, was I bought 3 of those FULL 90% off full body Xtreme Guardz(Posted in this section) and put them on(Front and back) and the case is actually nice and snug now!

Oh, I was thinking of going for a Nilkin screen protector that's why. Will the case still fit since I'm getting a screen protector only?
Oh yaaa it will def fit.
Here's a few pics.

The case looks great, have your tried putting on the case without the full body protector? I want to buy either this or the Otterbox Commuter.
Oh ya!! I had it on without the protector the first few days and it was fine, the only reason I put the full protector on was because I got 3 of them for $2.75, lol!! That's 3 FULL PROTECTORS for under $3!!! Crazy.

this was exactly I did, really hard to take off. I found the case too slippery so for now I purchased a dot view case; and find it okay
I have one (unopened) that I received for free with my phone. I'd be willing to trade it for the international tpu.
Oh man, I got this case at Verizon last week and returned it. I didn't think the fit was good at all. Maybe it was just the end caps being a little loose, but the phone itself felt loose in the case. I can just imagine those caps flying off the first time you drop it. It's too bad, I was really excited to get this case.
looks great
This looks better protect more and its cheaper also lol!

Yep or I'd have one already

I love this case but hate that the end caps are plastic and not coated with a rubber texture that the M7 version had. That really helped with grip.
Would it be possible to spray the end caps with flexible vinyl paint?
Anyone find a good one?
Wow, I have the same question. This thing is super slippery. All I want is a rubber bumper, no back, no front. Can't seem to find one.
Same boat here guys. This is the closest thing I could find:

I preordered last week and it ships next Tuesday, but apparently they are now backordered until october, I guess. You can always write and ask if they plan to have anything sooner though, I suppose.
If anyone has a 3d printer I guess you can try making your own, too....or even with just a box cutter and a cheap-o tpu case off ebay.

best I could find. Should have it Monday to see if it comes close to the gen1 grip shell I loved so much.

Ordered the same thing earlier this morning as it's all I could find. Didn't want a case but the phone is slick.

That isn't really a bumper case, it has a clear back piece and is therefore a shell case... there are several cases like that available, one example is the one I have, the Tudia Lucion.
I have not seen a true bumper case for the Moto G yet.

Uh.. yeah.. like I said it's the closest option I could find.. I know it's not a true bumper. I saw that Tudia but looked thicker than what I listed. Still wish they would make grip shells for this model like they did for the older models.
The poetic case has grips on the edges...just sayin'
My Orzly bumper case was delivered today. It's .... eh, I'd give it a solid 4 out of 10. Does it cover the phone, yes. Does it add a bit of grip, yes. Is it attractive, no. The search for a case continues...
I was able to remove the clear piece from the case. It's now a bumper! Not great, but a bumper none the less.

Yeah, tbh I'm probably going to get one... The Tudia case is developing an annoying spot by the buttons where it lifts the screen protector when i press the power button sometimes. I liked the case initially, but after having it a bit, it just doesn't fit as well as it should, especially around the buttons.

I bought this 12 days ago and it arrived today. It's got an awesome look and feels and feels soooo premium. Cut outs are also excellent and USB and audio jacks plug in perfectly.

Be careful with metal bumpers. They're known to interfere with reception.
Thx for bringing that up, for me I doesn't have much of an affect as I live in a urban area, but I've heard that for some people it could reduce the signal a lot (not specifically for this case though)
