Good value leather-effect case (UK)

Got one of these recently and it's really nice for the price. Fits well and seems well made. Magnetic clasp and cutouts for the cameras etc. Currently £13.95 at mobilefun.co.uk.

I nearly bought one of these myself Paul but instead went for the Samsung Executive Case....... and I'm not happy with it.
Like the case you kindly mention I don't like the leather surrounding the glass surface. Much prefer the case where you 'click' the Tab into place rather than slide it in.
Any idea's which would be a good case?

I've only used the one above and (for a short while) the official Samsung case. Not the executive one though. It was the sleeve variant. I really didn't like it. Very hard to get the device in and out of as it was so tight. I'm happy with the one I got, though may try a TPU style cover at some point.

Yes I have the same issue with the Samsung Executive case, it's a right pain inserting and taking out of the case.

That looks very like the red one I recently got

Good case, but it does have tendency to let the tab slip out of the top if held upside down (while taking out of a bag, for example)

Hi Jon (hey we're neighbours ). That does look very like mine, apart from the colour. I've not had the problem with it slipping, it's a snug fit. Unlike the official case, which was a strangulated fit .

I see we also share the same taste in where you purchased it too.
I obtained my Samsung Executive case from LondonMagicStore.
Excellent service from them, have purchased quite a few items in the past and have their Black Gel Case Cover Stand on order as well.

Nexus 10 case video review

When I bought these the price was $9.90 for both cases shipped! They have gone up but are still a good deal
Poetic Slimbook Leather Case for Google Nexus 10 This is the one I like the best

Any reason this couldn't have gone in one of the existing Poetic case threads?

I got both of these as well. I figured for $9.00 I would like at least one of them...if not, I'm not out much.

This has got to be the best designed case as far as looks I've seen as of yet. Thanks for that post and pics. I have a Khomo Bluetooth Keyboard/Case on the way which I will also be doing a review of once I receive it. It looks great as well so be on the lookout if anyone is interested.

Thanks for the review, grabbed one of those hardback cases for myself when it was $5 but didn't manage to grab a nexus 10 yet before it went
out of stock so I haven't tested out yet. Looks pretty good imo and from the reviews on amazon, it's pretty much worth the price.
About the other case, I did not like it that much because it covers up the speakers.

I ordered one of those form Gizomo, I agree its one of the best looking case (actually looks different from other instead of a simple rehash).

also available at amazon.com

I like the style of the Gizomo....not sure about that flap. May get kinda annoying.

Juppa case

This one seems to offer good protection, a hard shell inside a book style casing. No mention of a magnet.

"5.0 out of 5 stars Fits well and good value 28 Dec 2012
By Brent46
Colour Name:Black|Amazon Verified Purchase
Arrived early an looked very nice. Applied screen proector (always difficult on big Screens) one of the better protectors I have used, Fitted Nexus very well and all charging an buttons accesible. Turns device on an off as you open and close. Very happy with for £5 I paid"

Bit annoying that he only paid £5 for it when they're now £12 but even at that it's not a bad price.

It just seems like another of a million already available cases. All these dealextreme/ebay cases all look the same to me, and a case is a case, they're all plastic, and they will prevent scratching the screen, that's about it.

I've fallen for this one

Nillkin case
Not the cheapest, but it seems a good finish, tight and clean all around

Does this mean you already have that case? If so, what do you think of the pleather quality wise?

I posted the original link because I saw a case that took two properties of common cases that are not found together anywhere else, the book style cover enclosing the hard plastic shell. It's too bulky for my use but that doesn't mean it's not going to appeal to someone else, it deserved a link for that reason.

Skinomi Tech Skin on the way.

I just ordered a carbon fiber Skinomi Tech Skin and got 25% off using a coupon. I've never used a skin before but I got used to the darker color of the At&t model I was using and I hate using a case. Between this and the iqshield I have installed I think I'm set.

I got and installed the tech skin. Overall I'm pleased with how it turned out. It looks good (if you like carbon fiber) and adds a fair amount of grip. Funny thing is, I used to hate carbon fiber. Now covers the three things that are always on me.

Looks so much better!

I'd have to agree. It came with pieces to cover the camera glass and sides but I think that would be a little overkill. More than anything I appreciate the added grip.
And for anyone who is wondering, Moto mods work just fine with this installed. I've tested the JBL and power pack. The skin is actually thinner than the iqsheild I have on the screen.
If you hate cases and want to keep your phone from getting scratched up I can confidently recommend this, especially for 12 bucks.

Just ordered the dark red wood skin from skinomi, will post pics once it arrives. Was shipping relatively quick?

I would say reasonable. I ordered the 3rd and got it the 9th. I guess I've just been spoiled by Amazon prime.

That sad moment when you get a tracking number, and now you gotta wait, and stalk the delivery update page . Lol

So I'm really fighting the urge to take off the skin. There's nothing wrong with it. It improves the grip, and I did a pretty perfect install, buuuut... I just really like my phone naked.

Poco X3 Skins

Hello,
I just want to share my experiance with you.
I've always been a skin person, but usually went for Dbrand or Slickwraps.. this time around, I've contacted XtremeSkins.. man, best decision I've made in a long time.
1. They respond really really fast,
2. They are polite,
3. Their products are better quality then Dbrand or Slickwraps (I'm not joking, I don't know what kind of foile do they use, but it is far greater quality.)
4. Installation is easy, they do have how-to videos on their YouTube site
5. Durability is great.. been using my phone with just a skin for over a month now, the skin holds up perfectly.
6. If you live in Europe, the shipping is like 3 times faster than Dbrand or Slickwraps, mine came in 4 days!!
7. Installation is easy, for some reason as the material is tougher than Slickwraps or Dbrand, it helps..

I am in any way shape of form paid for that, I'm just sharing what I belive is the best for us!
Here is the link: https://www.xtremeskins.co.uk/products/xiaomi-pocophone-x3-skins they have bunch of other skins too. I've ordered one skin for my Bose 700 headphones too, it looks great..

Thanks for the info. Will probably order one.
Just one thing... What option do I have to chose to have it cover the Poco Logo?
So far every option I tried showed it with the "Accent" visible.

I orederd the red carbon one. I wrote it in the Order notes when buying and they made it without the logo. Really easy to install as well and got 10% off for ordering first time. Thanks for the tip.

That actually looks very nice, I ordered the Black Carbon skin.

And now I regret taking the cobalt blue one, because the red carbon fiber one looks so good on the grey one

And do you all feel like they really protect the phone?

The black carbon one looks great, and I'm tempted. But I can't find any info at their page on the protective qualities. Can I really forgo using the case that was delivered with the phone?
