Anyone go jogging, running or exercising with their Note 8? Any suggestions on cases or how to carry this beast around? It's too big for my shorts pockets...
What do you use?
You can get an "Exercise Case" or "Armband" that could be strapped to your arms. Additionally, you can buy a smart wristband as well though Samsung flagships like Note8 have advanced health and exercise features.

I use an Spigen case for jogging.
I hold in my hand or put it in my pocket.
Fanny pack
Training for a half marathon with my wife now. I use a jansport fanny pack worn across my chest or back. Its great because it holds my phone, wallet, keys and anything else we might need without interfering with my form. The main thing is cinching it enough so that it sit against the body but not so tight that it restricts motion. Attached images attached are a bit goofy but should help you get the idea of fit/placement and the last one helps put it in a unisex sports context.
These all look like good solutions you can also try i-Blason for an arm band type. Good luck
I use my camelbak without my bladder bag or straw.

Another vote for a simple armband case. I use it whether I'm doing cardio or weights. I currently use a S8+ but have a Note 8 coming tomorrrow.
Flipbelt for my half marathon. Salomon vest for marathon.
I have a LD West Holster for my Note 8, which I can use when I workout.
I like using mine on road marches with a Camelbak its works fine occasionally the bluetooth cuts out but I've had that with every phone I've done that with so no biggie.

Get bigger shorts
Seriously, I don't have a problem with all my shorts, combined with BT earphones. Cheers LJ
You could just get an LD West Holster to carry your Note 8. I have one and it is great.

I just use a business card holder. Sits nicely on my desk and matches my other business card holder actually holding business cards.

Same here (but g19). Kind of defeats part of the purpose of this keyboard but oh well.
I ordered a Treegloo case but wanted a case I could utilize for the next 2 weeks. Went to my local Office Depot and found this case for the Galaxy Tab on sale for 14.99+tax. Very snug fitting, only port covered is the headphone but with some wiggling you can utilize it. I love it so far and I wanted to share with you all looking for a case.

I just bought this same case.
Pros:
Fits nice and snug. Feels like carrying a nice leather bound hardback book. The strap is nice, holds the cover on well and comes off easy when you want it too. Horizontal stand is great for watching movies or hands free operation on a table.
Cons:
It's a bit thick for me though, I really just want something that barely increases the size yet still can protect the screen. Without the cover I can pocket my nexus 7. But it's too thick with the cover.
Funny that you mentioned this... I just got the same one for my Nexus. I have one for the iPad as well. It's a great case, really well made, and not cheap feeling or looking. I tried like 6 or 7 of them and found one that was nearly perfect. Not terribly hard to remove for gaming either, and does double duty with real drop protection should that happen (already tried it unfortunately, all good so far). This same case saved my ipad from a 6 foot fall on concrete floors... Good stuff. Get one before this hits SlickDeals, or you won't be able to find one!
I thought that I would share this discovery! Like many of you that previously purchased a slim case for your Transformer Prime/Infinity tablet and now finding yourself with a totally different tablet (Nexus 10). The case you bought is now incompatible. What are you to do? Cough up more cash for a new case to fit your N10? Sure but you don't have to. Here is what you can do with no tools other then your own hands to make your incompatible Poetic slim case or something similar to fit your new N10!
* I discovered that the the four corners that hold the tablet in place and the two inner place holders are actually bendable! You can force these holders to bend and flex to fit your N10 snuggly. That's it! Saved you the need to buy another case
(Don't be afraid to force it when your bending it to shape. It will take some pressure.)
See photos below...
(These photos were after bending them all to shape. Sorry didn't think to shoot the before pictures:/)

*If you want to install a sleep/ wake feature for when you close the lid. All you need is a magnet like the ones on your refrigerator, like I did with mine and just cut it to fit the magnet snug like what I did below. The magnet I used had a soft foamy material that worked out nicely.
I no longer need to buy a case now that the one I had for the Infinity fits just fine for my new N10! Hopefully this helps you!

Good for you bud. Looks awesome.
And good to know that many cases fit the Nexus 10.

Thanks. Yeah just a little adjustment here and there Normally the case would be too big but since I was able to bend it, it all worked out.

To my surprise, I've gotten used to snuggling up with my Nexus 7 instead of a book to wind down at night. Currently in middle of Season Three (I think) of Northern Exposure. It works quite well to defuse stress.
My problem is that I need something to prop up the tablet. I've tried to prop it on some cushions with other cushions or a book to hold it in place, but it slips down constantly. I have an easel-style stand, and one of the Poetic cases that sort of folds into a stand (but doesn't stay put), but what I really need is a pillow. I even went to try the one being hawked on TV at the moment (the "GoGo Pillow"), and the design would work, but it's too big for the 7" Nexus and not adjustable. I've seen some similar designs, some of which clearly won't accommodate a 7" tablet but others that look like they'd work.
The most promising looks to be the Lap Pro on Amazon, but I'd love to hear a personal recommendation if anyone's tried one of these or a similar product.
Does anyone have a solution that works for this very first-world problem? Next up, why does Whole Foods leave the feta in the salad bar in such big unmanageable chunks? :laugh:
Wasn't entirely sure how you have your tablet from what I read.
Do you prefer to watch it while lying down? On your side? On your stomach?
Or do you sit while you doze off? Personally I have this case (rooCASE Multi-Angle) which would be helpful if you have it laying next to you on your side. In addition, I love it when you are working on a desk, as it gives you that angled look without having to hold it up. Not only that, it's pretty thick, and I carry various stuff like the crazy college kid I am, but know the tablet can take a beating and a good dropping while in my book bag.
I know it's out of stock but there are many cases like it. I think you can find a very similar one made by poetic.
Hope this helps out. :fingers-crossed:

Something like this? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Universal...let_Mounts_Stands_Holders&hash=item2587de5534
I have a couple of these, one at work and one at home, fits the N7 perfectly and the angle is completely adjustable.
This is useful
Thanks for sharing this / Thought it is a simple search in google / It made me to understand what a Pillow Talk is

I picked up the Supcase armband case from Amazon since it has openings for all the features of the phone so you can still use it during a workout (Camera, audio jack, spen, fingerprint reader). The case material is a very thin flexible rubber but when put onto the phone actually feels pretty solid with a good fit. Due to how light this phone is, when attached to your arm it does not bounce around much at all though I thought it might initially. The strap loops through a slot in the back of the rubber case which could be a point of failure, but that doesn't seem to be much of an issue if the strap is tight enough since it really doesn't bounce around. Time will tell about the durability. I intend to mostly use it for biking so bouncing around is not as much of a concern than it would be for running (it really doesn't move much at all). I'll update after I give it a few rounds of use. Attached are pics.

My wife has this case for her LG G4. She like it a lot as it seems to be very reliable when she goes running everyday. She also likes the fact that you can use it as a case without the strap. She has the pink one.

Yeah forgot to mention that part but I'm probably going to stick to my other case for daily driver purposes. I grabbed this one since you can still use the fingerprint reader and I heard those other ones with the plastic film over the screen limit it's usage.

That's true. I had a few from amazon that hindered the scanner's use. Only case I found that doesn't but does have a protector is from Supcase that's also water resistant(not waterproof).
I love this armband. Just enough opening find fingerprint
