what do you guys think?
I just got one and it fits wicked !
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=9704622961&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MESE:IT&rd=1
I purchased the same item last month, its branded T Mobile, but a good fit. It has elasticated sides so would probably be suitable for other PDAs, I can also use it for my Sharp Zaurus SL-C760.
You may want to shop around on eBay as I purchased from a US seller for £7.99 including delivery although it took 3 weeks to arrive.

yeah I realised that these ones were a little more expensive but they are in the UK so easier to trace etc. and plus mines arrived next day, so I was well happy
In North America?
Does anybody know where I can purchase a leather case like this one in North America?
I've been looking for a case for my Universal that is the same as the Qtek case. Not a skin but a belt holster that has a magnetic clip for closing but the Universal slides out completely when taking it out of the leather case -- oriented on your belt horizontally.
Is this what you're looking for?????

This is the one I use for my JasJar. Great carrying case. I purchased mine from this seller (In fact I bought two). Works great. Good seller. JasJar fits right in.
Best deal in my opinion.
Good luck.
Take a look at this company, the Brando cases are considered one of the best cases to buy.
Flip Case
http://shop.brando.com.hk/bwdopod900leathercasef.php
I've bought 4 of my cases over the years from this company, although they are based in Hong Kong I have never had any problems with the service.
The delivery has always been within a week to the UK. I bought the side opening case last week from them and I'm very pleased with the quality
Side Case
http://shop.brando.com.hk/bwdopod900leathercases.php
Hope this helps.
I have to agree about BRANDO. I have bought several cases from them and they have always been very fast at delivery and courteous. Once i had a faulty case and after an email and photo of the problem they immediately replaced it!
Their screen protectors are also amazing, ive been using them on an A920, A925, A1000, SX45 and now my Exec.
The case from the first post is EXACTLY like the case that cme with my HP Ipaq H6340. I used it for a while until i hanged it for a krusell.
If any of you guys want a source and dont trust ebay, try HP.COM and look in accessories for the H6340/6315
Brando end-latch case
Actually, I ordered the Brando case that opens lengthways. It's not too bad, some small alignment issues with the openings in the leather...
I just realized that I like the JasJar without anything attached so I'm looking for cases that it's slides out of completely. Maybe I'll get a silicone skin for it so it's more tactile but after using my Brando case for awhile, I definitely want one that I can remove the JasJar from completely.
I must admit, the Brando case looks nice and feels good other than the alignment issue. Delivery was fast and service was good.
What I'm after is a nice holster style case like this one from Sena. Does anyone know if a JasJar will fit into this case??

You might find the Krusell Horizontic case suitable, but you'll need a PDA Large (code 94108 or 94113) and they're a bit of a dog to get hold of in the UK.
Brando vs Krusell
Yeah, I'm in Canada having real issues finding a distributor that carries the Krusell case.
And why am I looking for the case after buying a Brando?
Because the Brando sucks. After the second plunge to the concrete that my JasJar took because the metal screw holding it to the swivel swivelled right out (!), I've given up on the Brando.
It's crap. Your better to go with another case. Speaking from experience and one scraped up JasJar.

Check this out. Says they ship to the USA but not sure where they are based. I have this case myself and it is very good.

the best Ive seen to date is the Piel Frama... expensive, but you get what you pay for ;-)
I've notice a lot of these cases for the universal, the edges are actually expose. You drop your universal and an obvious damage will be visible. The case that came with my Exec was crap, so as the other cases from O2. i have to agree, Piel Frama is the best one i've seen and the price is pretty quite expensive. :?
I have to say, I have a Krussell Leather 'Bikini' model with swivel belt clip which does the job perfectly for me. And I've dropped my M5000 numerous times with no damage even thought there is a lot of exposed casing... only problem is the stylus and SD card shoot out when dropped, I'm on my 4th stylus @ £5 a pop and 3rd 1GB SD (Glad the SD card prices have dropped!)
Forgive me if I posted this in the wrong section.
I dropped my MDA III a few days ago and now there are a few scratches on its case. According to an article here, there's a member here (fluffcat1) that sells replacement cases. I have already send him a PM but I was wondering if anybody knows of any other places where I can get a replacement case for my MDA III.
i just bought a case from ebay uk. There is a seller call geoffery or something. Its costs around 20 pounds. But then its a 02 XDA iis case. hope this helps.
Thanks for the tip. I just ordered one too.
There's another seller who sells the complete housing, including the slide out keyboard but it's three times as expensive. But he also includes instructions and a few tools.
Just to let people know I bought an original XDA IIs housing from "geoffrey5400" on eBay for US$38.65 (GBP 19.30). I got it a few days later (really fast shipping) and it was brand new. Using instructions found here I was able to replace my (damaged) silver T-Mobile MDA III case with this black O2 XDA IIs case en my BA looks awesome now!
I love that guy, dirt cheap shipping and great service. Bought mine from him as well.
I found on ebay this leather case for our lovely SGN: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/A1-EASECA...307038?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item56471d8f5e
Has anyone tried this case and do you know where can be found same type of case with lower price?
Easecase cases are very high quality as i bought one before for my Sensation. I've never seen them cheaper than what you see on Ebay as they are each custom made. I was thinning about the E5 or E6 versions but at a cost of over £60 it's a lot for a case. Excellent quality, you get what you pay for.

I had an Easecase for my Dell Streak and despite the rather high cost, I'll be purchasing one for my not yet owned white Gnote ...
They're fabulous quality and you can choose from so many options with regard to colour, design, size ... I asked for my Streak case to have a hole so I could attach a strap and they were happy to do this even though not their usual design. Sold on ebay and ships from Hong Kong and even though custom made, the turnaround was excellent, allow several weeks though.
Overall outstanding!!
Now I just need my Note
i order E4 EASECASE Custom-Made Leather case for Samsung Galaxy Note...i'll update more when i get.
E5 ordered
I've ordered the E5 in the hopes I can entirely replace my wallet with it.
Once the looooong wait is over to get it, I'll post a my thoughts and feelings.
If anyone has ordered something from these guys before, how long did it actually take to get it.
I'm in Sweden at the moment, and, strangely, mail to here seems to come a lot quicker than it does to the UK - at least based on my ordering stuff from the US and the EU since I have been here.
I'll be watching this thread also, as I'm considering getting a custom-made case for my Note as well.
I'm aiming to replace my wallet. I'd like to keep my credit and debit cards, my workplace badge/ID card, my car spare key, and some cash all available on the Note. A friend jokingly called me ridiculous for wanting to keep all those possessions in one place, because if it ever got lost....
But for the past year my Vibrant has been at my side constantly, save a day or two. I've taken to wearing a stereo BT headset for awhile now, and it beeps if I get out of range of the Note, so there's a reminder.
One of my main concerns, though, is the day to day accessibility that might be impeded by the wallet/case enclosure. Will the flap over the screen fold back all the way out of the way? Will the Note + leather case be too thick and cumbersome for the pocket? Will the Note's CPU get overly warm? How about the stylus access? Can the flap double as both a vertical and horizontal kickstand for movie viewing?
I hope most of these concerns will be manageable. A supple leather case custom-fit for the Note just oozes class and functionality. Hope to see some positive reviews forthcoming...

may i know how you ordered the a5? i am looking around their store and cant find that model
is lining leather selection to determine the leather inside? so you can have different color/leather inside??
I may purchase the A6 case, but have had bad experiences with leather phone cases in the past.
Are easecases soft to the touch?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Anyone here have this case ordered? Can you share the manufacturer's link?
I was planning on getting a certain Easecase, but can't seem to find the particular style anymore. Was looking for the case with the flap on the left to hold credit cards and the open-face pouch on the right, so you can use the Note without taking it out.... anyone see that link anymore?
I seem to recall that the case I was looking at was from an Australian shop. Was looking to have it custom-made (hole for stylus, engraved name, ability of left flap to bend back to double as a kickstand...)
Thanks,
Andrew
I ordered one from Ebay. It took a few Weeks to arrive and when it did it had not been made to the specification i ordered. I emailed the seller who apologised and made a replacement free of charge. Both cases are of very high quality and i highly recommend them.

Hi Guys !
Just looked at this thread and the link on eBay , as I´m also waiting for a high quality leathercase - I´d ordered mine from PIEL FRAMA.
Scrolling down the advertising page on ebay I saw the different possibilities of closure-mechanisms , so there´s my warning:
Beware of magnetic closures , they will make problems with SGN Display in the region of the magnetic flap !!
Statement: PielFrama also produced their first Series of SGNCases with a magentic flip mechanism and MUST change back to nonmagentic snaps !
EmailReply PF :
We have been checking the case with our craftsmen and now, everything is
solved so that, the case you will receive does not have any problem.
This post should solve dissapointments cause of sharing recent experiences !

Hi, I ordered the E5, not the A5 which might be why you are struggling
I am mighty impressed by the simplicity of the D2 case but the seller doesn't ship to India. Would have loved to get one.

I suggest you email the seller and ask if he'd be willing to send it to India anyway... I travel a lot, and often vendors can be accommodating if you send a copy of your passport or pay by bank transfer or something.
Failing that, a volunteer on here to ship it on to you

Can you elaborate what is PielFrama? Are you talking about EASECASE? or who?
I want to order an E6 (which is a wallet) with magnetic closing - but need to know whether that would cause problems or not - or you saying its fixed?
PS: Anyone knows whether the phone fitted with a Flip case would still easily get into an E6 (or other cases, I suppose they have same space compartment for the phone).
I am currently using PDair case with magnetic closure without encountering problems so far. I've also ordered an A4 Easecase also with magnetic closure, and the manufacturer e-mailed me last week that the inner side of the closure is 'demagnetized' and therefore shouldn't be a problem.
Given the negative views expressed in the XDA forum on magnetic closures, I'm still uncertain and keeping my fingers crossed.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I'm thinking of getting the E2 case. I was wondering if you've tried to have your galaxy note in a easecase while having an additional case on the phone (i.e., Nillkin). If so, how's the fit?
I had the pdair with magnets and still do, only thing is i took the magnet clasp off and attached a non magnetic clasp instead when i noticed the compass moving with the magnet while using maps, flip the case right over and the highly magnetic side is facing the back of the phone, so the compass moves there check out my before and after pics of my sewing on the new clasp in the magnetic clasp message in the note accessories forum

Just got an email to say my E5 has been shipped and should be here in a couple of weeks. I'll provide a mini review when I get it and use it a little bit.

I actually have a Zenus Galaxy Note Prestige Origami Diary Series case (webpage here), which also has a magnetic latch. As a precaution I have stopped using this case until more information comes out about magnets interfering with the S-Pen and screen. In the meantime, I have sent Zenus USA this e-mail... hopefully they may know about this situation and / or update us with either more information or a change in their product design to non-magnetic cases...
=== e-mail to Zenus USA ===
Dear Zenus,
I have recently purchased a Galaxy Note Prestige Origami Diary Series case for my Samsung Galaxy Note, and I have a question / query about the magnetic closure system used to keep the case closed...
As you may or may not know, the Samsung Galaxy Note has a WACOM-based stylus to be used on it's display, which utilises a magnetic layer on top of the phone display itself. This allows the stylus (the S-Pen) to draw very accurate points and lines along the whole of the screen itself.
Now, there have been reports that magnetic latches on phone cases may interfere with the sensitivity of the Galaxy Note's magnetized screen, and over on the XDA-Developers forums there have been several discussions as to whether magnetic opening and closing mechanisms on cases actually do affect the S-Pen's accuracy. Reports have ranged from no effect at all to a complete "dead zone" around the part where a case with a magnetic latch is in close contact to the screen for an extended period of time. An example of such case can be seen in this forum post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19887574&postcount=11
And this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445478&page=4&styleid=15
Now I am not personally sure whether the Galaxy Note Prestige Origami Diary Series case, which does have a magnetic latch, will affect my phone's screen in any way. But as a precaution I have temporarily stopped using the case.
But as a very satisfied customer of Zenus, I hope the company can be aware of such new issues popping up and if / when it is found that yes, magnets in close proximity to the screen for an extended period of time will affect the accuracy / usability of the S-Pen on the Samsung Galaxy Note; that Zenus can let it's customers be aware of this issue and (possibly) alter the designs of the cases so that it has a physical hook / physical latch / velcro etc. as a opening-closing mechanism instead of a small magnet...
For now, us folks over on XDA-Developers forums have issued a word of caution about the use of cases with magnetic latches for the Samsung Galaxy Note. And would like a few answers as if the magnetic latches actually have a negative effect on Galaxy Note screens in the long run...
Thank you for your time and effort in reading this very long but (arguably) nessecary notification to your products,
byeh (XDA Member)

What do you guys think?
I ordered this mercury lime green case from ebay for USD 9.99, haven't received it yet, but should arrive may be monday or tuesday, whiles i'm waiting for that, i just picked up 6 tpu case from shenzhen today, just the same as the one i ordered from ebay, the store says it's real, but i wont comment on it, all i can say is the mercury brand is korean, but they are still made in china, and these that i got from china are identical, and of high quality, i've checked everyone of them.
Here are some photo of the actual item, i've taken photo of the yellow cases as it shows up better, all photo is with the GSM model, with extended battery and cover.
All covers are glittered
All for USD 2.60 each
Thanks to Evil Jimmy for this detailed video
I won't comment on the quality, these photo speaks for themselves.

if your are using the standard battery, it should be ok, the gsm version with the extended battery and cover is little thicker than the cdma version, so it should fit.
can't comment on cdma with extended battery.
Just to let you guys know, I have just received 3 of these cases, and will do a video review tomorrow evening, with both the standard gsm battery and extended!
looking forward to it
I have the black one, thank god for button cutouts! Makes this cheap tpu case a good option

@evil jimmy, would you like me to link your video in the first post in this thread.
Hi
I may be taking orders for this case from 1/2/2012. The case will be charged USD 6 (USD 2.60 for item + the rest for shipping cost) if anyone is interested, this includes the item and registered post with tracking number.
I will be going to china shenzhen on the 6 or 7 of feb, so if anyone is interested please let me know, this is a one time deal only, and will not do a second time.
I'm sorry that payment must be made upfront and is non refundable unless the item is out of stock, increase in price alot or cancel before item is purchased, as i cannot afford to have evryone cancel their order once the item is purchased.
you can pm me upfront if interested, but payment will start on the 1st if all goes well.
I make nothing from this, just helping people out.
Hi folks,
I just now purchased a Love MEI Oppo case for the Find 7.
I was weary of knock-offs. There was an official LoveMei.com site, and a .net one, so I decided to go through one of the few eBay sellers, the one with the highest rating. They claim of course that it is genuine and offer retuns. Cost the same as buying it through the site, but with the big bonus of PayPal protection.
Here is the eBay link:

Here is a good review of the case:

I'll offer my own in time.
I'll be seeking out a mount to hold it onto my motorbike (have a bluetooth helmet headset) . The last one failed and my 3GS went to its grave.

removed the tempered glass .. yet the problem exists..
my Find7 looks like a tablet rather than a phone now,,,
