I've seen a few cases out there with a belt clip/holster, but I haven't yet seen one with a belt clip/holster AND an S Pen holder. Anyone know of any yet?
I am also looking for options for a Case with SPen Holder? I know Samsung has one, but wondered if there were any others? (I don't care for a belt clip - just want the Case with holder for SPen....?

Thanks for the feedback - I am aware of both of those - in fact I ordered the case with SPen already. What I am hoping for are some additional options - above and beyond the ones that Samsung Made. Guess we will have to wait a while until some one comes up with some additional cases.

Got my Ringke case today, feels pretty good - light and has frosted finish so no visible fingerprints, am gonna get the s-pen case later on. BTW, I compared the case to N10+ it's slightly taller but also narrower, better to slide the phone into pocket.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachments/rgke21u-png.5189679/
I recieved the Samsung Case with S-Pen today and While I don't have the phone to see how it fits and works together, I do like what I see. The SPen is securely held in place by the side of the case - easy to take out but not likely to fall out on it's own. My one issue so far is that it feels a bit slippery - fits in the hand well, but seems like it might be easy to drop it because it is a bit slippery. I will be able to tell more when I get my S21 Ultra next week.
I noticed in my FED EX account that Fed Ex has received the shipping label for the phone - which demonstrates it should be shipping soon - but it also says expected delivery is 1/27 - so I will still probably have to wait until next Wednesday. (I sure hope that things speed up and I get it early - )
So far, I've purchased an inexpensive Encased Duraclip case. It offers rather minimal protection, but it has a slide in type holster with belt clip. As these phones get bigger and bigger, pocketing a phone just doesn't work for me. If I discover one that incorporates all three things: (Case, Holster, Pen holder) I will post it. My phone says it won't ship for a couple weeks still (Bought from Samsung) so I have a little time. Thanks!

I did receive my new S21 Ultra the other day and I am very pleased with how it fits in the case I got from Samsung that included the S-Pen - The S Pen works very well but I wish it had Blue Tooth functionality. There is a pro version of the SPen coming out sometime in the future though - I will probably plan on getting that when it is released.
no holster, but I am intrigued by this one:

Did anyone find anything yet.... like soneone else said this phones are HUGE and great. A pocket is not the place for them. i would love the pen but if i cant have belt clip too then pen has to go.

can you tell me if the case is actually 85 mm wide like the specs have listed? that seems wider than it needs to be since the pen goes in the thin way

it's 84,78mm measured with a caliper. it has large curved bump so I imagine it could be a bit less wide, like 84, the spigen one looks a bit better... but yeah, it's large

It is a bit large - but honestly, I have gotten used to it . I don't even notice the size anymore. And it is nice to have the SPen available when I want it. I ordered the Spigen case but have not recieved it yet, Looking forward to comparing it to the Samsung Version
I haven't found a good clip case, but another option is to pick up one of these pen loops. Top review says only the slimmest of pens will fit. Just got mine in and it passes the maximum shakage test

I hate that I can't find it anywhere in Europe, price and shipment from the official site are just not worth it
just saw this new case on aliexpress where the pen goes into an elastic sleeve on the back
Stylus S Pen socket Pen Slot Case For Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra Nillkin Aoge Leather Back Cover With pocket Holder|Phone Case & Covers| - AliExpress
upon closer inspection it looks like they made the cutout for the note s pens since the ultra s pen is longer than where the 3x camera would be
ordered one anyway, should fit into this holster Amazon.com: Encased Clear Back Designed for Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra Belt Clip Case, Slim Protective Cover with Holster
ill let you guys know when it gets here
Fits holster perfect. Pen slot was definitely made for note pens. Real tight and hard to slide pen in and out. Probably gonna have to let the elastic stretch out a bit with a regular pen.

Hi I found this one on ebay and was thinking about buying this instead of waiting for the original samsung ware.
What do you thing?
http://cgi.ebay.de/ZENUS-LEATHER-CA...429511?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2eb0f65607
It looks GREAT! I was looking for a case with a strap too

I bought that one from Zenus. Waiting for it to show up here !
I just got my dk grey/ylw zenus case in. Great quality. The pics on their website are spot on.
Where are you located and how long did it take for you to get the zenus case? Was there a tracking number and where did you order from?
I did the faster shipping option to get tracking ($26 US), and I placed the order on the official website (www.zenuscase.com). The order was placed very late on Tuesday evening (Nov 2), the order was processed/shipped on Wednesday/Thursday, and I recieved the package on Friday afternoon in central US. The tracking showed every detailed step of the process, even that it was momentarily held at customs in Chicago. Kinda unbelievable that it flew around the world and made it into my hands so quickly!
I don't think the cheaper shipment option includes tracking but I could be mistaken.

I just received the cheap silicon skin I ordered for my Galaxy Tab. It's perfect for my usage pattern, but I can see that the tight-fitting won't be tight enough for some users (the rubbery edges are soft enough to slip off the tablet). I like it because it doesn't increase the dimensions of the tablet, it protects the plastic case in the unfortunate event of a (short) fall, and it offers more grip than the white plastic material at the back of the Tab (which is good for when resting the Tab near the edge of a table, or simply when holding the Tab with one hand).
I have bought the official notebook/stand case from Samsung:

So far I'm happy with it!
I was waiting for the original case... but after seeing shots and the quality of the case, I think the Zenus cases are of MUCH better quality and looks. D3O technology is interesting though....
Well the Zenus case is not exactly in the same price tag... You can get 2 official cases for the price of one Zenus case!
Still, the original case is made of genuine leather and d30 so I don't know why you doubt the quality? Plus I'm not too fond of the black/orange color of the Zenus... But I have to admit it looks nicely finished, although probably not as secure as the original one (lack of d30)...
I can confirm that there is indeed a hole for the rear camera and LED flash on the zenus color edge.
Why I chose the zenus case over the official samsung notebook/stand case:
-Less intrusive on the tablet's front.
-It was already available for order.
-Slightly better styling in my opinion.
Zenus does offer two other cases for the tab already, more conservative in design, and cheaper to compete with the official case.
If I hadn't found the zenus case, I would have been on board with the offical notebook/stand case as it seems very nice. One wouldn't go wrong choosing to go either way I believe.
Yeah, I guess they do cost more. I do like the different/bright colored accents so I guess I am sold on that. I like how the case is made though and the finishing.
Still waiting to see the official beige slip case. Zinio also has a really nice slip case which will be released Nov 11th...
Okay finally I brought the Zenus one, for a 700€ device I wont protect it with a 10¢ case like the silicons on ebay or some mid quallity like the samsung cases.
First I was waiting of the leather book release by samsung but at least I decided that its stupid because it cost just some bucks less and its only pressed leather (see edges) and it may only got collored plastic back, second thought was to wait at otterbox but according to their pricepolitik »bigger device» higher price this is out of buisiness.(ipad about 90$)
So I will make a review when its arrived.
Ordered the yellow and gray zenus case, it's simply beautiful, and I'm too impulsive to wait for vaja cases, Piel Frama and Piquadro to come out with their annunced galaxy case.
And b.t.w. The zenus one is very similar to the 200$ vaja case for the ipad
P.S.
I used the faster shipping option, and will review it as soon as it arrive
Sent from my Galaxy Tab
Oooo... I love Vaja cases... no wonder I was drawn to the zenus cases... I too paid for the more expensive shipping option. Can't wait to see mine... and yeah... grey and yellow rules!

My £500 Tab is nicely wrapped inside its soft rubbery £4 silicon skin, with the advantage of the versatile orientation options not being compromised by a thick and heavy flappy cover on one side
Each to his own though, it really depends on the usage pattern (need for pocket-ability, risks of falls, etc.). I really like the looks of the leather covers, but personally they would compromise my experience of the touch tablet.
I got some pictures of the latest Otterbox Commuter case for the galaxy note 2 from Android forums >

I wonder when this will be available in stock. Really need one for my precious.
Hi
Thanks for posting pics.
I am now thinking of getting this case, but I have some questions.
It looks really thick, is the thickness of the Note 2 doubled or less than doubled?
How is the grip ? does it slip off your hands easily?
thanks
Hi,
Well sir, as i said in the op, i don't really own one i hope that i can get one someday ^_^
This case as lots of people noticed, is less bulkier than the defender case from the same manufacturer, and it delivers almost the same protection. The main difference you'll notice is a couple of millimeters less and no plastic screen protector (a simple screen protector is supplied instead)
I don't really know how much is the thickness after applying it, but it shouldn't bother you if you are planning to protect your phone.
Best regards
Sifou
Using a Samsung N7100
I also ordered it in glacier color.
Just got mine, great so far. Doest add that much bulk surpringly. The rubber part is much better than previous models, doesn't pick up lint as much. Very glad I got it!

I also have the commuter and find protection wise it is pretty good, however I find the outer part abit on the slippery side, and the buttons abit harder to press. I have owned a Ballistic SG for my older SG2X which I found offered good protection as well, but abit less slippery and buttons were easier to press, but did not offer port closures.
Does anyone who currently owned/tried both the commuter and ballistic case for the note 2 care to comment if the Ballistic offers similar protection to the Note 2 as well as easier to press buttons?
I am considering switching if the Ballistic offered similar/better shell protection with easier to press button... or I may add a flygrip to the commuter (not sure if it would attach well to the commuter.... has anyone added anything to their commuter to make it less slippery?).... or some other similar alternative case you'd recommend?

The slippy part is the only thing I don't like about the Commuter for the Note 2 bc it also has rounded edges so makes it even worse. I am considering black skate tape which might do the job or this other grip product designed for cellphones (forgot the name so have to dig).
Anyone do any type of MODs on their Commuter? I would be interested in hearing what.
I was thinking about grip earlier today for mine. I think grip tape would be easy but alittle rough for my liking. Maybe some kind of non slip stickers like the ones you can put on your dash to prevent slip. I maybe even the rubber of a ping pong paddle.?

I have the Commuter series case for my Note II and am actually very happy with it. I've owned Commuter cases for both the GALAXY S III and the GALAXY S II LTE (Skyrocket) in the past, and this is by far my favorite design. Unlike some of the Commuter cases, this one doesn't make the buttons hard to press at all -- they retain their tactile feedback and make a resounding click when pressed which is nice, and it's pretty easy to install and remove (so if you're a flash-a-holic and pull your battery or whatnot, it's not a complex procedure to pull off).
The silicone material feels different too -- almost has a slight leather texture to it -- but lint doesn't stick to it and if dirt or dust gets on it, it's a lot easier to clean off.
Mine arrived today.. too bad my phone glass broke yesterday, yeah.. im not kidding.
Ill change it tomorrow and it will cost 290$ with service included. This time with the case and screen protector from otterbox

I like how you don't have to try to put the phone and silicone in the hard plastic a certain way or pull on the plastic in order for it to line up 100% correctly; with the S III I found that the power button was pretty hard to press and had almost no feedback to it (same thing on the S II Skyrocket case as well, but that's to be expected since they used almost the same design case wise).

I received the Commuter case today and my silcone also feels loose around the volume button area. It is also slightly loose above the the power button area. I don't think it is down to the inner silcone layer being too big or loose, rather the fact that the hard outer case shell doesn't wrap around on that part. This means the silcone has no support unlike the ends of the case where the outer shell wraps around and offers support and keeps it tight.. A bad design really.
My case is also as you say loose since the outer shell doesn't support the silicon there but this isn't really a problem for me. Actually I believe that this is by far the best case so I also ordered a spare one.
The silicon on top of the power button is a little lose as well. I tried the hair dryer trick to form it to place which made it fit a little tighter.
I had one last week but returned it within 24 hours. Too bulky, also more slippery than the original Samsung TPU case. I hope they change the grip on the back. Also the back does not really need to be so thick. I want a little more thickness to the bottom and top, because these are the areas than hit the ground first most of the time when the phone is dropped. The screen protector is not that good either. Not worth £30 that I paid for it.
edit:
the bottom flap also is very stiff and it pushes the usb connetor when it's plugged.
I kind of wish they went with a square design instead of rounded edges, would probably help the grip on the back too :crying:
Hey Z3TC owners! I recently picked up the Official Sony case for my Z3TC on amazon so I thought I'd do a detailed review due to the lack of them on the web. This is more of a first impressions. Type review.
Originally I purchased I purchased the IVSO case (click for link) from amazon but the Black color was not eligible for Amazon prime and Its been like 2 weeks and I still have not received the case! Hopefully it will arrive over the next couple days. I will post a review for that case when it does come. Of course 3 days later that case was eligible from Prime and they had stock in US warehouses
Yesterday while updating my amazon wish list for the holidays i noticed the SCR28 was available on prime from This vendor with free overnight shipping!! I snagged it quickly as there were only 6 available. *edit* this item is no longer available on prime
Here are my initial thoughts on this case:
1. The case has a Very slim profile. It is a Leathery yet soft-to-touch material. It is a much higher quality than the universal 8" flip cases available at best buy and local stores. The tablet is held in place by a plastic frame which fits the tablet very snug and has cut outs for all ports and buttons. In fact, the Frame was so snug it was kinda hard to snap the tablet back out. I also use a tempered glass (0.3mm) screen protector and it works fine with it.
2. The Inside of the flap is made out of a Textured Rubberized material(images D1). There is a small grove in the front flap that is the size of the tablet. When you put the tablet into the Standing position into that groove the tablet stands at 120. (See image B1 & B2) This case is also compatible with Sony magnetic chargers/docks (image C1)
There are 2 reasons why this textured material is nice
-It makes it so that you can position your tablet at other angles and it still maintains a good enough grip for your tablet not to slide around.
-When you fold the flap back it offers extra grip on your tablet so that your not holding on to the smooth leather part or slippery metal part of your tablet.]
This is one of my favorite features.
Unfortunately when folded all the way back it does cover the camera cutout. However the case folds all the way around where you don't necessarily have to leave the flap hanging down. (See image A1 & A2)
3. Theres no strap or magnet to keep the cover down but when i set it on a table it pretty much stays closed all the way and doesn't open on its on. Also the smart open/close feature is a welcomed addition to the case.
Summary
Overall The build quality is very nice and compliments the design language of this device very well. (some people may argue that at $40 USD it should be much nicer, but from whats available I think its very well built) We will see how this holds up to the generic one I Will be recieving. It is a very functional case that adds little bulk to it. However, if you are looking for something more "protective" this is probably not the case for you.

When its propped up @ 120 degree angle, where the cutout for it is. Its sturdy enough to not have to much movement when used on a flat surface. Much better than the cases where the front flap folds into 3 to prop it up.
I really like the case as well. I am a little worried about the white case... Seems like it will get dirty real quickly but that's the case for all white cases.

I really like the case as well. I am a little worried about the white case... Seems like it will get dirty real quickly but that's the case for all white cases.

Its a leathery material (not 100% sure if its genuine leathee or pleather) it feels *kinda* similar to the back of the z2 tab but this blackone doesnt seem to attract finger prints. Ive never been a fan of white cases cuz they age faster and turn gray! If u end up going with it please share pics!
Got mine today great case super quality and don't add no bulk to tablet thanks.

Where did you find the white case for sale? Since I have the white Z3TC i was looking for the white one as well. Sony US doesn't have any accessories for the Z3TC yet.
You even quoted where he purchased it Amazon.com

I got it on Amazon, a third-party seller. Here is the link to the seller's page. It ships from Hong Kong, but it was a relatively fast ship.
Sony Scr-28 Cover and Stand for XperiaTM Z3 Tablet Compact Scr-28 White
Edit: Now it is fulfilled by Amazon...bonus!
Looks like it's prime eligible too!
As far as I see from your photos, SCR28 doesn't have cut outs for magnetic charger.
So magnetic chargher can be used only with the cover open ?
I wonder if anybody had the chance to compare Sony SCR28 with MoKo Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Case - Ultra Slim Lightweight Smart (also find on Amazon)
I think these two cases are the best option for our tablet but I'm not sure if the build quality of the MoKo cover is the same as the Sony SCR28.
Tempered Glass for Z3TC
mrgizmoe, thanks for putting this information up, truly appreciate it. I would like to know if you could share where you got the tempered glass for the Z3TC and how well it works with the tablet. Once again, really appreciate the information you put out here for us. My Z3TC should arrive this week, and I'm super excited.
Thanks!!
Mike
Thanks for the photos! Can you post a photo also of the tablet with the flap folded all the way back? Am seriously considering getting this too.

Correct, I dont have the dock myself but the back cover needs to be folder back or put over the dock. However I've seen the MoKo case for an iPad and the build quality to me is not as "premium" feeling. But in terms of durability I'd say on par with eachother.

I got these 2 on amazon
VSTN
IVSO
One is for back up. Im currently using the VSTN one. Its very thin and comparable to the Nillkin tempered glass I have on my z2 Phone. Basically edge to edge. However there is one review that says its not made out of glass and its plastic. The one i received wasn't as bendy as this persons review shows & it feels like glass to me!

Are you using the controller mount with the case?
I got this case for free when I bought my XZ3TC and I'm very happy with it. Soft touch, nice grip. Premium feeling.
The only disavantage I found it's that you have to open it in order to use the magnetic charger as I never open the flaps.
I got the 32 GB black model and decided to try the white case. After three weeks the case is as clean as the first day.

When searching for the right case for your smartphone, try to remember, useability over style. It will save you a lot of headache.
I get an Arielle case for the edge and this case has got the protection I needed for my phone. The past case I had was a standard hard black PLASTIC cover. Wasn't worth a darn. It chipped first time I dropped it and has really bad scraps. NOT WITH THIS CASE. The Arielle Galaxy case is quite different. I've already dropped and it held up just fine. The case is part plastic but feels like a rubber has been added. It's softer and flexible. You can bend it back and forth. Also you can twist it some. Phone fits perfect and just snaps in place. All the openings and buttons are correct and push smoothly. Wipes down easy with damp rag.
The color of case is an attractive teal. (I call it teal) it's for sure different than most phone case color choose I've seen. Then it has cut outs on it with the black from inside of case showing through that. It makes it look like leather stitching. Neat design the way it's been done. I do like the case and recommend purchase."

I'm looking for a really heavy-armored case because I'm really clumsy and I don't want my phone to suffer any damage.

I came across this one ( Armor King Metal Aluminium case ) and I love the aspect of it ( really looks awesome ) and from the reviews I read most people like it.
Anyone bought this ? I'm looking forward to buying it soon.
A flip case, pouch case or wallet case protects the screen from ever being cracked. I've owned a smartphone since 2003 and always used one of those 3 and never broke the screen, even before Gorilla Glass.
I bought se original Samsung flip case. One day later I accidentaly droppt the phone from a table -> display broken.
Now I'm using a rubber case.
Samsung Case
I think Caseology Wavelength Series Case is the good choice for Samsung S6 Edge
I bought a Ballistic Tough jacket case... still waiting for it to come, but yet on youtube it looks great and does what it should
I think Slim armor is a good case
1 vouch for the spigen thin fit case. Very comfortable to hold, great design, and it also provide protection for ur phone. yet very grippy.. but there is a draw back.. since it grippy. If u put the case on a dusty surface, it will pick up some dust.
I received a case for my S6 edge. When I opened this package I had no idea it was gonna be this phone case (the box is amazingly high quality and very well done). It resembles the packaging of a fancy bracelet/necklace - kudos on the box gus.
This is a very high quality samsung galaxy s6 edge case it fits the phone superbly all the cutouts are done very professionally all the buttons are in the right place.
I especially like the 2 in 1 it adds a bit of quality to the case the metal looks very classy it has the name turata embodied into the metal plate and four bolts in each corner.
Overall I am extremely impressed with this case from turata the quality is excellent it fits brilliantly what else fo you need.

I got the case yesterday and it fits perfectly!
Comfortable and cheap! Many on the net say it protected their phones...still haven't dropped mine.
This is my perfect case. I also tried the korean version which claimed made in korea on the pack/bag (in cheapo plastic pack)which faded off into yellowish very soon.

I went for this one - OtterBox SYMMETRY Cell Phone Case for Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ - and was delighted to find it works with cordless charging (my previous Otterbox on the Note 4 didn't. (But don't buy a glass screen protector... the case cracked it! £18+ down the drain)
Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case
Hi.
I am using this case and after usage i find its very good. Its transparent so beauty of the phone can be seen. I am from India and I bought it from Amazon.
Its a must have transparent back case.

Do you find the otterbox symmetry bulky at all? I hate bulky cases but like the look of the Symmetry one and seems very slimmed down compared to the other otterbox cases
I'm looking for a slim case with reasonable protection... any recommendations?

I always go for the Spigen ultra hybrid. This time around I had an s6 edge in white and paired it with the gunmetal grey ultra hybrid and it's clear in the back, slim, but still offers all around protection

The best case I have come across so far is http://www.amazon.com/URBAN-ARMOR-GEAR-Samsung-Packaging/dp/B00TRG8KGY.
I am not a huge fan of the design aesthetic, but the case really does a great job. The other week, the case protected my edge from a really nasty drop onto concrete caused by a drunk idiot in a bar.
this is my case

GOTTA have a kickstand case, but all the ones I find seem gawdy and bulky, but I Saw this case and was like I have to have it. but everywhere I looked it was Out of Stock. Spent 4 days looking, and I eventually found it on Amazon Prime for 16.99 vice 39.99 on Spigen Site. The buttons on this thing look awesome, and it doesn't seem to add much bulk o the device.
I've got this case. Love it. Can't charge wirelessly with any reliability though. Have to pop off the case, but not a big deal for me.

I had this case on the LG V20, good case. However, I find that most cases somehow always get bits of sand between the phone and the case, so on my LG, I applied a skin to the back of the phone first, then the case.
I took the case off just now, to clean up the phone to ship back to Samsung expecting my Note 8 today, and there wasn't really any sand to speak of between the case and the phone. Excellent case. I have dropped my phone a few times, and broke the glass screen protector, but the case took the falls like a champ.

I have yet to experience wireless charging issues using this case on the Note 8.
I have this case, and a host of others. It's thin, works fine for wireless charging for me. My only issue is that it feels uncomfortable. I wish they would have put a more rubberized coating on the edges. Although I loved the look and the kick stand, I went with a different case that made it more comfortable to hold for long periods of time.

Plastic kickstand. No thanks.
I used one of these cases on my Note5. Held up for over 1.5 years and totally saved the phone from quite a few falls.
Never had a problem with the kickstand breaking, despite its plastic construction.
I'd recommend it if you aren't QI charging. It does have issues with that unless you take it out of your case.
I love the Spigen cases. The Tough Armor and Rugged Armor cases are now standard purchases for any new phone. They also work with wireless charging. I can't recommend Spigen enough.
I've been using the spigen liquid armor. Great balance of protection and grip but still thin. Great price and wireless charging works.

Same here. I fast charge through the case worth ease. I'm using the Choetech Fast charger w/ fan. Works perfectly.
Got mine Friday. Great case, not bulky at all. Kickstand just fine for what I need and wireless charging works great with my Samsung wireless charger.

Hi, could someone that has this case could take a picture of the phone face down to check the separation from the surface to the screen? almost none of the cases have this picture,
I really would like to know how separated is the screen from the table once is face down,
The bigger the space, better for a face down drop.
Thank you.

I'm surprised you say that, I am using mine daily and have no issues on the stock Samsung wireless charger, and a few choetech.
I bought this case (gunmetal colour) 2 weeks before the phones release. I love this case and had the equivilent case on ym Note 4 (took several falls at varying heights and my Note 4 still works like day 1) and ordered it for my short-lived Note 7. Spigen cases are easily my favorites but this is Spigen's best case (IMO). Doesn't add a lot of bulk, buttons feel great and work well, kickstand is nice, feels great. Haven't tried with wireless charging yet (still waiting for Samsung to ship my pre-order gifts) but seems to work by other comments above so hopefully it holds true.
do any of you also have a screen protector with this case? I want to order today and this case is lookin good

I bought this case but subsequently had to return it as it wouldn't work with the Whitestone Dome screen protector which on a side note is the best thing since sliced bread.
If you are looking for a virtually identical case with better screen protector compatibility try the Caseology Legion.

Here you go.
Note 8 face down:
Ordered this case for both my S8+ (black) and iPhone 7+ (red). They looked great initially, but after a couple weeks looked like trash. They were scratched up, scuffed up, etc. All they really did during that time was either sit on my desk at work or sit on the counter at home (I dont use the iphone at home at all as its a work phone). I traded the S8+ for the Note8, and no longer use the one on my Iphone. I tried to reach out to Spigen and they did not want to help. Very poor customer service. I found that unfortunate as they are great looking cases when you take them out of the box.

Thanks very much for the pictures. That doesn't look like a lot of clearance, unfortunately. I think I need to get a separate rugged case for active days.
May I ask which glass protector you using?
Thank you!
