Piel Frama Leather Cases

I haven't seen any mention of these yet, looks like they should be shipping in a few days (ETA 9/15). Expensive, but I really like the 593 series and they come in a variety of colors (orange!) with real leather. Pretty limited in the angles you can use for viewing though, it doesn't look like there's a way to stop the cover from opening further on a slick surface. If anyone gets one, I'd love to here some impressions.

Wow, a case that starts off at 99 bux. Thats about 40% the cost of the 8gb tablet. I would have a hard time justifying this cost to my wife lol.
I do love their cases. I have seen them around ever since the Handspring Treo days :silly:.

Hah! I haven't thought about my old Treo in years! Used to have a love/hate relationship with that thing back in the day.
I agree, $100 is pretty steep but people are paying that for some of the Portenzo cases, I'd like to see a review before plunking down that much for a case though. Hope it's one of those "you get what you pay for" situations. They seem to be held in pretty high regard for some other devices.

I actually came across my Sony Clie NX70 PDA . Still had the Vaja iVolution case in black. That case was a pretty penny as well being it Argentinian leather lol.
The Clie still looks brand new! LOL I remember finally being able to play Spaceballs on the Clie back in the days :silly:

Piel frama cases are well made and are real animal leather so they are very expensive. Some of their designs are bulky though. Personally, I can't justify their cost.

Speaking of treo, I waited for the perfect Treo but it never happened. I hope they revive it without a poking antenna and put windows 8 on it. I love the hardware.

Agree. I've had a Piel Frama case on a few devices in the past. Well made, but bulky and not that cheap. These days I prefer something unobtrusive and less bulky. Still waiting for Asus to release their Nexus 7 accessories here in the UK...

OK- Some Minimal~ist Cases

It's so funny how every time we get a new phone, the accessories subforum explodes.
Nothing in the DEV Section. LoL.
We're all so antsy to do something with our new phones we don't know what to do with ourselves. LoL
Ok back to business.
i found a couple of these that I personally like and would purchase.
#1 TUP Bumper Case only. Provides maximum protection in the Minimalist category
#2 Slim Slim book-cover case.
The brilliant thing about this case is that it replaces your battery cover. So it is not an additional cover on top of your phone. Look closely, it's a BATTERY DOOR replacement with a wrap-around cover to dress up the front. Excellent design!
#3 Magnetic Book-Cover Case. [/u]
Ok, this one DOES cover the entire back of the phone. It will be the bulkiest of the bunch here. It's gota magnetic clasp to keep the case cover closed on top of the phone. Looks nice.
#4 ALUMINUM BUMPER
Looks solid.
I'm likely going to purchase the TPU bumper myself because it's a good compromise between minimalism and protection.
What we're really worried about (at least I am) is the bezel getting trashed, or the screen cracking because there wasn't a ledge (or lip) on the front side to absorb the fall.
So, I like the TPU bumper.
Anyway. I thought I would share. Congrats on all new TMO T889 Note 2 owners.
Day 3 with the phone beginning Friday.
It'll be one hell of a switch from my S2.
Nite all

Are there any cases, or just battery cover replacements that add a kickstand? I dont want a flip case or any extra thickness. Just a replacement back with a kickstand. I saw a TPU kickstand for the OG Note, but note the Note II. I love the kickstand on my EVO 4G and dont want to go without one. I saw the Flygrip and I think it looks terrible and you cant set your phone flat on a table with that. Something like this would be perfect.

I just received that case and it seems fine for my needs. The phone is big enough that I don't need excessive extra bulk Has a little bit of a textured finish where you would have your hands, so it certainly feels way more secure vs. no case!

with Kickstand
Is this what you guys are looking for?

---------- Post added at 03:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 PM ----------
So sad that not a single Brick and Mortar store has anything for the phone.
T-Mobile has nothing for the T-MO version, and they don't even know when they'll get anything. They didn't even have the white Note 2...
I just need a simple case to make by until anything worthwhile appears...
I ordered the TPU hybrid with kickstand (link above) from Amazon, but estimated delivery is next Friday...
Has anybody found anything for the Note II at any retailer in the US?

By the way, I purchased No. 1 and it broke after 4 weeks. The plastic is cheap.

Case/Screen Protector for s6 edge

So i've had my edge for about 2-3 weeks now and still don't have a case/screen protector for it.
I am very picky about cases so I would like it if some of you guys can give a review of the ones you have.
I don't want anything that adds to much weight and would like a case with a good grip on it.
As for the screen protector I am probably going to wait to buy a tempered glass one. But if you know of a good cheap one please post the link as well
thank you!

You look up the urban armour gear yet? Personally I don't like how it looks, but it's light, grippy, and has a military drop certification thing.
You can also look around the case threads for something that meets your expectations.

I need a tempered glass protector as well but still have not found one yet.

I don't have anything for cases, but I just posted this review for the tempered glass from amfilm

One of the big reasons I got the Edge was go how good it looked, and I was a little worried a case would take away from that, but this case is the perfect complement. It has a nice quality feel to it, looks good, and provides the perfect amount of protection. I would highly recommend it.

I personally dislike flip cases as I am always taking my phone out and would just find it annoying to keep flipping it. But I appreciate your response!

Hey. Was just wondering if there was anything special you had to do to get this to work properly. I grabbed one similar to it but it doesn't do anything when closed, just a big faded piece of plastic. I got this one:

It's a bit baffling to me and I've tried all the things I can think of but no-go.

I buy a kit that has case and screen protector in it.
Buy it is on the way...when it arrived, i will share it for you guys.

I have this tempered screen film. As for the case. I prefer a slim armor case. Someone recommended to me. I will use it for a little longer before posting the images.

Crappiest protectors ever. Bought three. For my G4 and Nexus 7 and for an SGS4. Refunded all of them.
Even if they offered a 100% discount I would still not be interested. As with all things though: YMMV :good:

Thanks. I always just use those eBay screen protectors, you know, pack of 6 for 2 bucks. They work SO well and they're SO cheap! I used to use those Zagg ones way back when I had Blackberries, haha. I didn't like the yellow peel on them. Plastic 3 layer protectors are the way to go.

Hmmm, after applying tempered glass protectors on all my devices I would never go back to the plastic ones
Have bought them on eBay as well, using Nillkin now. Really cheap and quality is just fine. Applies easily as well :good:

Yeah? I've applied a few tempered glass protectors, but apart from my own inability to correctly place them, the ones that have gone on without any issues usually produce a problem when I put on a case when I go for a run. The edges of the case put pressure on the protector and lift up the edges sooner or later and I get dust under there. I have yet to have any issues with the plastic sceen protectors. Not to mention, I go through like 4 of them every time due to dust in my house (pets and such), it's impossible for me to find a perfectly still and clean workspace here! hahaha. :good:

Loca Glue and some random screen protector off amazon

I hate not having some type of screen protector on my phone, and really didn't want to wait for better solutions. Whitedome was just too expensive and i tend to break protectors often. So i went a head and tried out loca glue with a clear glass protector. The glass protector had adhesive on the outter edges. prolly why i had a lil bit of bubbles on mines on the upper right. Came out not bad imo. Responsiveness is great.

Question, is it easy to remove it? or is it a hassle?

I would be concerned with how hard that will be to remove :/

probably if you applied heat, the glue would melt, but depending on the glue of course. I am curious to know.

I would cover the earpiece with tape or something, really easy way to avoid getting loca glue in it.

Here's one resource I found on removing LOCA

Thanks to the info. Just completed my installation of a tempered glass with LOCA and used 70% Alcohol and worked wonders to remove excess.

Looks great, any dot matrix on the screen you used? hows the clarity?

I'm in the UK and have the Whitestone kit. It has one spare tube of glue. I assume you could use the kit with any clear tempered glass? Happy to sell it for £12 inc shipping in the UK. Paypal payment. First PM gets it.

If the tempered glass breaks how difficult is it to remove loca and the glass from the phone
Is there any video showing the process?

Anyone know of an amazon TGSP in the UK without Dots?

how long do you keep the phone in the UV light?

interesting, thanks for sharing

After watching this I'm not so sure about using Loca 1000.

I removed and replaced my Whitestone Dome - the glue stayed with the protector, there really wasn't any one the phone itself.

We're not talking about the Whitestone i think everyone is interested in knowing how easy or hard it is to remove loca 2500 vs 1000. Who knows or cares what Whitestone uses.

Excuse the f*** out of me - he was asking about removing the Loca glue from the screen when the protector was taken off, and since they use a grade of Loca I'm willing to bet the outcome is the same where the glue stays on the screen protector as long as you can get the screen protector off OK.
Grow up and use inference.
