Framaslim case and wireless charging - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories

Hi y'all.
Presently considering the Piel Frama Framaslim case.
I am however concerned about the heat buildup during wireless charging.
I haven't found an answer anywhere on the web.
Please - any and all thoughts or personal experience on the matter more than welcome.
I've ordered the Note 7 but it's so new and the S 7 edge must resemble in this regard.
Regards
Elo

I haven't used that case, but have used a couple of others, and while the phone gets a little warm, it doesn't get hot. It's not enough to concern me.

Urban Armor Gear Petition

I thought I would start a petition thread for all you Urban Armor Gears lovers out there (including me ).
Maybe we can just leave our XDA usernames, countries, for a Urban Armor Gear.
I love the Urban Armor Gear on my Galaxy S3 and it would be nice to have a equal one on the Galaxy Note 2 !
Then I can either send Urban Armor Gear this link or put all the names from here, and then send it to them.
Pro:
-Good protection
-slim and light
-functional
-good colors
-NFC still works
-unique and masculine
Contra:
-Not aviable for Galaxy Note 2
Here are some pictures of they're S3 Version:
Those look pretty sweet

I would definitively purchase this case!! very nice. Please keep me updated
Just watched a video review of the S3 one on youtube, it looks like a really well made case. I'd consider buying one but it looks like it'll make an already rather large phone even bigger.

How does this case compare to the Trident Aegis case?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I've realized that their business model is focused on the iPhone. I, too, got a response saying they have no plans... so by the time they get around to tooling their systems to make a case, it'll be too late. Happy I have one on my S3 tho, it's a neat design, especially in the little details.
bump. I want this case so bad.
I sent them about 2 emails last week and got the "if there's enough people wanting it, we'll start thinking about making it". I think even if we finally draw their attention, a case wont be available to purchase till February or so.
I want.

I was almost to buy the gs 3 to buy good cases ! Pathetic ...I know ... But cant help to notice so many cases For I-P#[email protected]$ and almost nothing for the rest of the BIG THINGS out there .... THIS one PLS make it for all those ppl who love good cases and want one .
This is an amazing case. I have a black one on the S3 I'm typing this on and I'd love to see UAG start making them for the N2. I'm probably picking up a N2 this week, and this would be the go-to case for it.

KLD Charming Case (Magnetic?)

He guys, I found another leather flip case that seems really nice. I like the colors but wish there was a blue similar to the Asus Nexus 7 cases.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/KLD-Ultra-S...702452?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2c690824f4
The one thing that concerns me is that it is magnetic. Is that safe? I found a video of the case(s) on youtube.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLwx4kSB7Pw
I really wanted one of those as well but being magnetic is a no go.

Besides being magnetic, they seem to be the all around best flip cover I've found (besides the Official Samsung Flip Cover that haven't looked at.) Nice colors, good design, appears to be good quality....... Guess we'll have to wait for something else.
I received this case the other day and the quality and feel is excellent. It is a beautiful case. I'm going to give it and try on my Note when I receive it. I like it better than the official Samsung flip cover.
Any feed back on the magnetic case being safe. I am getting my note 11\1 amenities want to order the case ahead of time. So far I am liking this case.

Safe? Well, it's not going to damage anything much, but it WILL screw with the S-Pen, and render the compass completely useless.
Ive got the case and been using it the last few days with no ill effects what so ever!!!
The magnet is next to the front camera and doesnt screw with the S pen at all. ln regards to the compass I cant comment as l dont use it (l dont think)!!!
All in all a really nice solid case - no complaints so far.
ps - went for the black and beige one - looks smart!

The case is safe. Smart covers for tablets (N7, Ipad) contain magnets. That is how they automatically wake up when you open them.
I bought this aswell hopefully there are no side effects. I plan on installing a landyard in it aswell. The note wont fit in all my jeans pockets ; p

I see now. It looks like butt. At least the colors do.
Ok I just bought it as well the black one as it looks beautifull and it has a kickstand feature what more do you want from a case all for a super price delivered what are you waiting for guys?
I have this case in black and I absolutely LOVE it.
It looks amazing, isn't bulky and the materials are top-notch. The phone doesn't move a millimeter. I haven't used the pocket yet, but I think it's a handy feature.
The magnet is a plus for me. It hasn't caused any problems.
I didn't want the official case, because it's made of the same chintzy plastic as the stock back - which I don't like at all.
FYI I have a brand new one of these cases available for $15.00 shipped. I'm located in the US so shipping will be a lot quicker than China. Please see the thread below for details

I'm looking at this case too and have a couple questions.
Does NFC still work?
What is it like to text and make phone calls on it?
Do you think it would still fit in a car mount with the back cover flipped around?
How easy is it to take in and out of the case?
I will NEVER use a magnetic case on my devices.
Very expensive device + magnet = prone to damage.

You ever use the OG Droid? Both the car dock and desk dock used magnets. Magnets are fine with these devices
I doubt a low strength magnet would have any negative effect on the device.
I ordered a wallet case with a magnetic clasp and initially I was worried about dead spots on the screen. Having received the case and seeing how laughably weak they are (just enough to hold the front panel shut, absolutely no more) I'm not sweating it at all.
I'm eagerly waiting for the FedEx guy now, but I'll report back and tell of any issues.

Gameklip for our note 2?? [Ps3]

Hey guys. I was just wondering if anyone knew if the Gameklip for the original note would work for our note 2. Or does someone knw of a diff kind of clip for the ps3 controller.

I have the GameKlip for the Note 1 and the Note 2 will NOT fit. The Note 2 is too long for a proper fit. Hopefully he makes one for the Note 2 soon.
All I needed to know. Thanks

Gameklip is now offering 2 models only. One for the SG3 and a universal one that attaches to a case for your phone with a 3M adhesive strip. They have cases for the Note 2 for $2.95, it's a generic TPU type. The wireless model plus case plus shipping to my house came to $21. The case attaches permanently to the klip so you will have to switch out any case you now have each time to use it. I have the Samsung protective case that slips off an on easily so I decided to go ahead and get the universal "case mount" since I would have had to take it off anyway with the old style system because it fit the phone too tightly to use with a case anyway. I will report back on the fit and quality once I receive the package.

I'm disappointed with this version. I was hoping for car holder universal style arms instead of just a sticky thing to the back of a case but oh well is not like we have too many options so I will have to buy either way.

The note 2 is a gaming powehouse. He should definitely make one specifically for this phone. I dont like the idea of swapping cases just to use it.

Considering the fact that the Note 2 is kinda heavy and rather big, i don't trust that sticky tape to hold my precious.
But, i've just bought a PS3 Sixaxis for the Note

You would have to take off any case anyway because the versions made for specific phones fit too tightly to allow you to place the phone plus case into the klip. You can't expect an option for every phone/case combination. If it fits tight enough to hold the naked phone securely it won't accommodate the phone plus case.

3M adhesive strips are way more reliable than sticky tape. Automomile manufactures use it to attach heavy items to vehicles that are subjected to much greater stress than you will ever
subject your phone to (unless you plan on throwing it when the game gets frustrating). Just clean the attachment point with alcohol before applying and you won't need to worry about it coming off under normal use.

I actually think it will look better than the plastic arms wrapping around the naked phone. This way the case and phone will be appear to be an integral part of the device rather than an apparent add on. Also, when I was thinking of ordering one like the original I worried that those arms, being made of rigid plastic and fitting tightly enough to keep the phone from dropping out, would eventually cause visible wear on the phone's body with repeated insertions. That should be no problem with a soft flexible case. Additionally, on the theory that the phone will eventually be replaced, it will be possible to remove the case and fit one for the Note 3, 4 or 5 to the device with a new adhesive strip. All in all it appears to be a pretty clever one size fits all solution for the multitude of devices in the market. I got notification that mine has shipped so I will soon have a better idea of how well it actually fits and will report back.
You make a lot of valid points let us know how you like it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
If you bought one for your original note that WILL WORK! I shoved my note 2 in it to see and it was way to strainful, so I decided to take a lighter to heat one side up to let it adjust to the longer phone, not it fits in perfect nice and tight and no issues at all!
Notice how the right side is angled a little, I can still shake it around and everything and its very sturdy still

Note 3 Cases & Screen Protectors

I didn't see any threads discussing cases/screen protectors for the Note 3. Worth such a big screen and price tag I feel it's ab pretty valid discussion. I am currently using the black Incipio Watson Folio case. It was my pick of the 2 options att offered when I bought it Friday morning. Along with the Moshi I visor XT screen protector. Which was also 1 of 2 options available.

I let GayT&T soak me for a rapey $47.56 for a BodyGuardz Pure. Is comparable to the Spigen GLAS.Tr, but the Tr doesn't come out till the 10th, and i needed protection pronto.
Is a piece of glass that sticks to your screen. hardly noticeable. Very smoothy. I am very pleased. doesn't appear that it will begin to lift around the edges or anything. It is slightly corny up at the very top, it almost appears to have a negative taper that is beginning to collect slight amounts of pocket lint, but nothing really.
Sales on the Pure don't include MOH hardness ratings, etc. does seem inferior to spigen with higher price tag to boot. first day in the store was yesterday

I've been an invisashield user for many years and yeah it will get crazy like that but not that noticeable if at all when the screen is on. It will correct itself over time but continued use of the s pen it won't ever really have time to heal. I don't think it's that bad at all myself but that's just an opinion.

Im without a case myself at the moment too. AT&t had one really cheap and sad back plate case (made of cheap plastic). So I am waiting for something to be released, the AT&t guy did say he had some memos saying Samsung was working on one, just sad it didn't drop on release. But I guess I can wait, at least until I drop my phone and then scream "Damn it if only I had a case!"

Zerolemon S6 Edge Battery Case

Just FYI for those of us who got lucky and got an opportunity to test this case and provide a review, check your email. I received my code this morning and it's only valid for about 24 hours. I paid for 1 day shipping and will get it tomorrow. I will update this thread with my review once I'm done with my testing.
Sent from my SM-G925V using XDA Free mobile app
Sweet looking forward to your review.
If anyone from ZL is reading this thread, might want to correct your case description on the website:
"We at Zerolemon knows how to make battery right for you. With 3500mAh battery installed, you will get 130% additional power for your Galaxy S6 Edge. With the small battery and big LCD screen in Galaxy S6, you will be glad you are carrying this battery case around!"
Samsung phones have AMOLED screens, not LCD.
I got my email and paid for 1 day shipping as well! We'll see how good they are. I got black, you?
I am excited about the case as well. I just accepted the free shipping so it will be to me on Saturday. Very nice of them to offer up free cases for us to review.

Dam that just ruins the whole look of the s6/edge. Lol so ugly.
What I noticed about this case also is the bottom edge sits really close to the home button. If you put your thumb flat it dosent even touch the home button. You literally have to go at it at an angle. Feels very plasticy and makes the edge look so ugly

This kind of case with extended battery might be a hot thing few years ago, but now with all these new technology like power bank, wireless charging, new fast charging from Qualcomm in both wall and car charger. makes these old thing obsolete.
Pair this with S6 Edge, that's even a bigger sin by itself.

I agree but i also think its time for phone makers to start thinking more of new battery technology and less processor and new designs. However. .. my opinion is they will do away with big bulky phones, go with the new flexible screen and cloud service. Same with laptops and desktops.
i forgot to hit one day shipping when i got my code and mine comes Thursday.
i have purchased other items from them in the past and been very happy and not reading reviews here at all yet so i dont go in looking for stuff and its a clean slate in my head
