Where the heck do I get a case?!

I can't find a case for this phone anywhere online. I checked amazon and googled it. People were talking about samsung.com, but I don't see anything specifically for the note 2 there. Can everyone just post links of places they got their cases? I really want a case before I destroy the phone. Thanks!

Samsung.com.
Shop products -> Cell Phone Accessories. Should be 20 pages of stuff
Filter for "Cases and Holsters" on the left. Should be 4 pages now.
Go to page 4. Official Samsung flip cover ($40) and protective case ($30) are there in 2 colors each. Use the 50% coupon from thread at the top of this forum.
Also, there is always eBay, and I heard Sprint stores have cases in stock. My T-Mobile store had no accessories

There are not many US-based retailers that have cases for sale at reasonable prices. I have a slew of them coming through eBay but most of them are third-party and shipping from Hong Kong. I checked the T-Mobile store nearby only to find that they did not have any accessories in stock and did not have any idea when they'd be getting them in.
Samsung.com, when I last checked yesterday, did not have any of the flip covers in stock for the Note 2. I put in a backorder on them but have no received an email yet.
Amazon.com, has mostly third-party accessories as well and it's difficult to find the correct items. Keep in mind that you can search for N7100, N7105, SGH-T889, SGH-i317 and many other model numbers.
Hoping within the next week or two that more US retailers begin carrying accessories.

Sprint
Anybody checked if Sprint has any accessories either?
Just called up T-Mo again, and again, "sorry, nothing yet. Looks as we got the phones early or something". Sigh...I think I got a simple one that should be here by next Monday...from Amazon.com

Well that's lame I'd really like to protect my phone. Can you guys post links to the few cases you are finding? I mean why can't we buy from European retailers sites? It's like they aren't selling cases yet either...

Just checked and Samsung.com is indeed out of the Flip cover, but they have the Protective cover in White and Black in stock.

This one looks decent for $5 and free shipping on Amazon prime: http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-HardBa...UTF8&colid=3ZBGXS3A7E7Q&coliid=I1D60SXXGX7LUY
This one is nice but seems priced high ($35). Also free Amazon prime shipping: http://www.amazon.com/Black-Samsung...UTF8&colid=3ZBGXS3A7E7Q&coliid=I2EC7ERBS5SP29
This is the one I ordered to get me by until better ones appear ($20): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00961ADCO/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

Those are good thanks! And it looks like there are more related too. These must have been added in the last couple days as I could find NOTHING on Amazon last week.

More and more cases are showing up each day. I ordered that Poetic flip case myself last night. Got a notification that it had dropped to $4.95, and there was no shipping cost (even without Prime), so it was pretty much a no-brainer.

Saw that about the Poetic case myself too. Went to order it today and they wanted to charge something like $25 for delivery to Europe Thanks but no thanks. Pity.
If you receive delivery I'd love to read a review

I'm personally waiting for the Trident cases. I ordered a crap-case to tide me over until Trident gets their act together.

I'm particularly curious to know, when that case and the Note 2 arrive, if it can handle the phone inside of a TPU.
Speaking of TPUs, I haven't heard back from Diztronic yet on whether they're making TPUs for the Note 2. TPUs don't get any better than Diztronic, imo.

Wish there was a seidio case out.. Or something like it.. That was a nice case that protected well

I have bought quite a few cases for my Note original, and then my S3, and now a few for my Note 2, but i always come back to using this one.

It is cheap and is relatively unobtrusive. It is thin and yet, sturdy enough to protect the phone from a drop from a table top. The sides wrap around the front of the touchscreen just enough to give it protection from putting it directly on a flat table top. The kick stand is very useful to stand this beautiful screen, especially for the kids to watch a show.

Blurex Ultra Slim Case, anyone have it?

http://www.amazon.ca/Blurex-Ultra-G...YQ86/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1355674844&sr=8-3
Does anyone have any impressions of this case, or other cases by this company? Build quality? Thinness?

I am quite happy with this case. Don't get me wrong, it is the same case, sold by various companies from the same Chinese manufacturer, but it is very light, thin, and looks quite good. Can't be beat for the money. I liked so much, that I ordered the same basic case for both my Nexus 7 and my Galaxy Note 10.1
It adds very little heft to the tablet, and holds the tablet very securely

They are not! Great case

It's a simple case, doesn't obstruct anything. It has 2 levels of stand and I would recommend it if you think you are going to drop and scratch your brand new N10 like I did...

Awesome. I ordered one yesterday with one day shipping. Need it for travelling this Christmas.

Mine doesn't seem to grip the tablet on the two bottom holders.
Anyone else ? A little hard to get on too.

Anyone able to post a video review? Please and thanks!

This looks just like the Poetic case that I got.
If my case didn't actually have "Poetic" branded into the case, I'd think it was all the same company with 1 item under different names.

I have it. Its perfect.. None of the ports (including pogo) are blocked. Does not add any bulk. Has a convenient strap into which you can slide your palm when case is open, allowing single handed operation. Wake/sleep works as advertised. Very easy to convert into stand

Thanks for the feedback on this. Ordered one today.

I bought itand it makes the tablet that much better, the tablet does slip out if the grooves a little but it hasnt bothered me at all. I just put it back in without even thinking about it. the material feels good in my hands too. Does a great job protecting the tab.

Owned this case for my OG Transformer, got it again for my Transformer Pad, and am buying it again for my new Nexus 10. Love this case.

MOKO Ultra Slim case in the UK...

Looked a couple of days ago and it wasn't available in the UK, but now it is. Not quite the deal that is available on Amazon.com, but still reasonable.
Ordered mine today and should get delivered tomorrow with Amazon Prime.
Sending my LuvTab back (piece of rubbish) and hopping this moko is what it's been made out to be.
Here's the amazon link... http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00AHBKW2S

Actually, the cover has been on Amazon UK for a couple of weeks, just well hidden Unfortunately the metallic tab threatening to scratch the screen is a deal breaker for me. I'm frustrated, there doesn't seem to be a cheap,quality, lightweight, "pleasant to the eye" Nexus 10 cover on the market. The red and black Poetic Slimline would be my choice if it wasn't manufactured so poorly. I bought my used Nexus 10 off Ebay (apparently part of the first batch sold in UK, November 2012, no creaking, minimal light bleed, uniform screen) and it came with the cheapest GMYLE / Tecknet cover, in pink. I'm not much into pink myself so I decided to replace it but I'm not able to find anything that pleases my eye at a reasonable price. I guess it'll be, at least temporarily, another 7€ GMYLE / Tecknet clone for me, only in black. It's a bit heavy for a plastic shell type cover but it looks sturdy enough. Guess it will have to do untill Noreve decides to lower it's prices to 20-30€ :laugh:

The metal should be fine as long as its not an edge that's touching. I'll update once i've tried it out tomorrow.
Its crazy the lack of quality accessories available. Time will tell though I guess.

Bought mine.
Very pleased.. been waiting weeks for it to become available to the UK
i was worried about the metal but its not touching the screen. i also put a small amount of sticky tape on it to make sure

In the end I opted for the Slim-Fit Multi-angle Folio version which is a bit bulkier than the Ultra Slim, but it looks great in red Ordered mine from the USA site.

I ordered both of them, the ultra slim and the slim. The ultra slim is a piece of garbage in comparison. The slim is very good feeling, whereas the ultra slim feels very very cheap. Mainly my issue is it only attaches at the magnetic clip in the center so that causes the top to slide around when it is being held. It should really attach on the sides as well more like the poetic case does. Also the foldableness is kind of useless since it doesn't work all that well.
Thank god it was only $5.99 for it

Otterbox Armor Series

I just found out about the Armor Series and saw they offer it for the S3. I have to say the design scheme they used for the S3 would be incredible for the Note 2. Having a hard plastic cover over the home button would eliminate dust collection problem found in the Defender series. I saw they're working on other devices and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a Note 2 version. What do you guys think?

I think if this ever made it to the note 2,itd be amazing, if huge
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2

I want one!!!

I would definitely try one out, but I fear how huge it would make the phone... They could have covered the home button on the defender, like they do on the iPhone, but for whatever reason they chose not to.
Also, I feel like they probably won't make one for the Note 2 just because figuring out a way to accomodate the S Pen would be a pain in the butt from a water proof point of view.

I guess I will continue checking if TVC Mall will ever have a knock off for this one lol!! So far I can't wait to see Griffin Survivor knock off case they have for Note 2, considering Griffin never released it for N2 yet

I read somewhere(think there site) that they would not be making this case fot the N2. Dissapointed after reading. That would been an ultimate case of all cases Water an Dust Proof. My ****en luck

A $100 case?! For that price, that thing better be rated to withstand a nuclear blast, and even then I still couldn't justify it. Don't know about you guys, but I'm not planning on getting nuked anytime soon...

Well, the intent of such case is not for everyday use. It's for those who are in construction or extreme outdoor, etc. So $100 is a small price to pay considering most of the protection plans have a deductible a lot higher than a price of this case. Of course, you can get Defender for $35 from Amazon now, but it will not offer the same level of protection. Doesn't matter since Otterbox is not offering it for Note 2 anyway...

Most recommend High Quality Cases We can have for S7 Edge -- Please add your Choices

Hey , everyone .
The Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is coming . aren't you excited about it
As usual , there will be tons of cases for it , so please put everything you will recommend here to help members to choose .

As usual , Uag and life proof are my second choice

Specks , If you like the minimalist design but alway One-piece rugged combine

For online staff , Spige , Tudia and Tech 21 or Artech 21 from amazon , they are good though

I'm not sure how many of you know me from other areas of the forum, but I'm a 'casaholic' as one might say. I currently own 20+ cases for my Nexus 6P since its my daily driver, so I will chime in with my recommendations below as well as some reviews when my cases start to arrive.
1. Hands down best case: Speck Candyshell. I love this case for my 6P because it not only has great grip, but it will handle drops like a champ
2. Incipio Dual Pro: This is my current 6P case that I fell in love with. I've owned many of their cases (I have one on my Surface Pro 4 too), and haven't been disappointing. The last time I had one for a Samsung phone was with my wife's S5 before the one for my 6P.
3. Spigen Slim Armor/Tough Armor: Spigen has historically made some nice cases, but I haven't had a good experience with their newer Neo Hybrid's, so I chose these instead. I've had a Slim Armor for many phones ranging from my Note 3, LG G3, to my Motorola Nexus 6. The case might not be the best looking, but it gets the job done.
Slim cases:
1. Ringke Slim: This was my favorite case for my Nexus 6 last year due to how slim it was while still handling minor drops.
2. Diztronic TPU (assuming one comes out) their cases are excellent as is their customer support.
I will add some reviews as I get cases, accessories etc... If you want to see how I've written reviews in the past you can look in my signature, so you know what to expect once I start to post them.

thanks for the great advice. I was a Spigen (Rugged Armor & Thin Fit) person for a long time as i always liked their thin and good protection. I don't like bulky cases.

You should see my OP for the 6P. I haven't added in the past few cases to it just yet, but I literally have a box of them on my bookshelf. I bought the Speck clear black Candyshell case because I know it will handle any drops that I will inevitably have. I don't think I will go overboard with this phone (I always tell myself that) because I'm not a big Samsung fan to be honest. I just thought the idea behind their camera set up was interesting enough to give it a try, and I like to have a backup device just in case.

I was using a Spigen Neo Hybrid for my S6 Edge for a long time and loved it, but eventually got a Mophie battery case because I needed to use an external battery all too often. I'll probably get the Neo Hybrid for the S7 Edge that I pre-ordered and hopefully the battery will last longer for me and I won't feel the need to go with a battery case.
But, while I was looking around at options I noticed that not only is Mophie already planning a case for the S7+Edge, but they are announcing that it will finally support wireless charging (yay). It is only a +60% battery option as opposed to the S6 Edge case which was a +100% battery option, but given the larger battery in the S7 edge a 60% boost should be plenty for me (I have often needed the extra power from my S6 Edge Mophie, but I have never run out with it - and 2600*2 < 3600*1.6)...

First Deal I've seen @ $3.99 for the CLEAR NON Prime shipped Ringke S7 & S7 Edge cases from their Offical Store via Amazon. Shipping is free.
The Note 5 Ringke case I had worked well. Ordered last night & it was marked shipped this morning.
Note:*Must select seller Ringke Offical Store and not fulfilled by Amazon in order to get Free Shipping and to apply the promo codes.

http://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Protec...8-24&keywords=galaxy+s7+edge+case&sdsrc=staff

does anyone know if any of these cases will work with a glass screen protector. The s6 edge did not have much luck.

I'll be looking for a subtle transparent silicon cover over the coming days. A great combination of protection without making the phone look s**t. I don't see the point is buying a phone that looks like this then covering it in something that takes the looks and feel away.
