[Q] Stand Smart Slim Leather Case Cover - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories

Anyone has this/tried it?
Stand Smart Slim Leather Case Cover
Looks pretty decent to me and i'm thinking of getting it, was wondering if anyone had any experience with it.

i ordered one, this week, i will report as soon as i get it!

I just did as well, the silver version ;D

How will the smart cover part of that case stay on the tablet when covering the screen?
It does look good, waiting for your reviews of this case.

I got the black one about a week ago..it takes 2-3 weeks for china stuff to arrive
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium

Lordwinkevin whats your review then? and what of the screen cover, does it "lock" in any way?

This is by far the best designed case you can get for the Tab10. All the other cases have ridiculously huge foot prints when in a stand mode.

The part of the case that covers the back looks cheap, seems there is a white colored plastic trim piece on it.
I would love to see some better quality pics of this case, the seller's pics are not revealing enough.

hmm i just ordered it couple of days ago... mine's shipping from HK... hopefully faster?

Ive had mine for over a week. This case is heavier than my tab! its essentially a cheap piece of plastic cover for the back and a microfiber suede material for the flap. Which is the heavy part ironically. It contains four pieces of some kind of heavy metal and a small magnet. Be carefull when closing it because I was scared that it might break my screen upon impact. And there isnt any way of it staying closed. It just flaps open if turned around. Ive already received a refund for mine. Now I just use the case as a weapon. The last thing a thief will think when I pull that thing out is that I will hurt him but honestly that **** hurts like hell, lol.

Just watched it, thanks for the link. Seem alright. Ill make a small review once i get mine.

So, any updates on this?

im waiting on mine as well...should come in any day now

Mine came in the mail today. I was going to do a youtube unbox but I have a crappy HP computer with windows 7 (no voice over in movie maker).
Anyway, I really like it like the case. It snaps on and off easily, has good cut outs and the plastic back adds a little stiffness to the tab. Love how light and thin the GTab is but it felt just a little too flexible. It also works well in portrait mode (how I use my tab most of the time) because it's foldable. It's more of a protector so I'm also using a Built 10 netbook sleeve that I picked up at staples for $10.

Cool, thx for the pics !
im still waiting on mine
Edit: Turns out it was waiting for me in the mail looks good, only thing is i asked for the silver one and i got the white, not really sure if i should complain or not, its not like im going to the "store" to return it hehe. Other then that, its cool and doesnt feel cheap at all

Just got mine today after seeing it discussed in this thread - glad I did, absolutely love it! Highly, high recommend this to anyone looking for a lightweight but durable case.

this cover looks beautiful with the tablet I think.

Hi guys,
Is the cover for the front able to stay closed, or is it not magnetic at all?
Im looking for a slim line cover/case and this looks nice, plus its an obvious apple cover rip off, which aint that bad.

It doesnt stay locked. It has magnets but it just barely reaches the top besel so it doesnt connect to it.
I've been using it for 3 weeks now, and i love it!

Droid 2 Case Reviews!

I just reviewed Droid 2 cases here:
Droid 2 Hard Case:
http://droid2accessories.com/droid-2-accessories/droid-2-hard-case/
Body Glove Droid 2:
http://droid2accessories.com/droid-2-accessories/droid-2-case-review/
Both you can get at Verizon store but Amazon is like 30% cheaper.
Also, I like the hard case better, the Body Glove is waaay too bulky, they added waaaay too much padding, your Droid 2 becomes like a big brick afterwards. But might work for those of you who want a sturdier Droid 2.
Hey thanks for pointing out these rad cases. In the Amazon page it claims to come with a micro fiber cloth and a "screen protector". Did the kit you reviewed come with some sort of clear plastic stick on deal? I hope so, I'm itching to by the white one and storm trooper this beast.
Thanks dude.
The one I bought
The one I bought is the same but I bought it at my local Verizon store for $24.99 doesn't come with a screen protector. darn it. But yeah, that link is the best deal I found and is the exact same case, yey.
Thank you sir I'll post back with the quality of the screen protector, ordering NAOWWW!
Hey thought I'd let you know this case is fantastic! Fits much better than I expected and the white case got me the storm trooper look I was goin for.
I also ordered the OEM extended battery from Verizon (BP7X) and am happy to report that despite its larger size, the case still fits perfect! In fact, I think these were designed for BP7X.
If you look at Zeedomax's pictures, the case has a swell over the battery compartment... with the stock battery installed, there is space between phone and case. With BP7X, like a glove.
I'd also like to say the free screen protector isn't half bad. No glare, no rainbow effect, and doesn't inhibit touch screen usage. The bad: it doesn't take much to scratch. I scuffed it up installing with a credit card and my keys have already done a number on it.
Definitely get this case and the battery!
Use promo code "BAT30" for 30% off and free overnight shipping. (Mine was $37 or so.)
I got the 'carbine' case when I bought mine. It was $25 instore. Also Good luck finding matte screen protectors anywhere. I have somewhat tacky fingers and find that glossy protectors make my fingers catch. I ended up buying a iphone matte protector from best buy and trimming it down to fit (bit of irony no? haha!) stupid things where $18 to boot...

Thanks for the info guys. I'm curious if the keyboard opens and closes as smoothly as without case. I briefly tried one on my phone and it was noticeably different as if the phone was rubbing against the case while opening and closing.
Yes, there are two clips on the top half of the bottom cover (confusing I know) that rub against the back of the screen when sliding open. Now even though
I noticed a difference immediately, I was not turned off by this at all. It has warn the clips a bit since then and seems to slide a little more effortlessly now...
But to answer your question, NO the case does not hinder the phone in any SERIOUS way. I'd also like to note that this case will drive you crazy on the top row of your keyboard for the first day or two, but now I've already forgotten what it felt like with the case off. Basically, you had about 1-2mm's of space between the top row and the screen. Now that space is non existent. You'll get used to it!
The only thing that seriously erks me, is all the crap that's getting stuck between the case and the phone from extended miles in my pocket. I've already scuffed up the shiny metallic front face pretty bad.
I thought since we are discussing cases, I'd share the slip case I got for my D2:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170524799245
It wasn't made for the D2, but it fits perfectly and it was cheap. Its already protected my phone from a drop of a few feet to a concrete floor. Most of all, I love the Android at the bottom of it, I thought it was perfect, especially for the price!
Do these cases have a hole for the noise cancelling mic?
http://www.skinomi.com/motorola-droid-2-light-wood-skin-protector.html
Not a case, but I just got this piece of awesomeness. Love it. Makes the phone look 10,000 times sexier.

You are the biggest spamming tool I've ever seen on XDA forums. Go away. This is all you post on various devices' forums.
Yeah, this skin is awesome. There are some other phones that it looks even better on.
As to our friend hwc there, I went ahead and reported him so I'm hopeful he'll be banned.

Roocase Ultra Slim Leather Case for 10.1 Review - Pics Heavy

I received this today in mail from PC Micro. They had coupon for 20% off tablet accessories so ended up to be $26 shipped.
Here is my brief review, and I'll let pictures do the talking.
Build quality: Probably the best I have used for any case. I'm pretty frugal guy, I wouldn't pay an arm or leg for cases but this is one of the very best. It's genuine leather, thus it smells great and feels great. None of that cheap PU leather cases come even close.
Protection: I feel pretty safe with the Gtab 10.1 in this case. Obviously, it's less protection than the thicker cases but this is more than enough for most people's daily use.
Accessibility: All ports are cut out perfectly. Obviously you can't charge with the folio flap close, so you have to charge it with it open. It's also a thin case, so when you are trying to touch the lower borders of the tablet, the rim of the case wouldn't become obtrusive.
Others: There is a velcro flap to keep the tablet in the case so it wouldn't slide out with the case open. A very nice touch IMO. Also there is no magnet for closure. I purposely wanted a case without magnet, so this may be pro or con based on user preference.
Overall: 9.5/10 (I don't give 10/10s). This is as good a case you can get. Don't look any further.
Hi Gordec, thanks for your brief review.
Could you maybe expand it a bit more with your experience as far as using it as a stand? In both modes, for typing and vertical for viewing media or browsing?
Roocase
My friend had one for his Ipad(allple Suck)but the case was nice so I bought one for my galaxy and it was great ...love it made a great addition.
I just got the ultra slim case today and its amazing i dont like the leather one because it covers the bezel around the screen nd it kinda gets in the way with the screen but this case is amazing.. The ultra Slim one..
I just received this case yesterday and must say that I am pleasantly surprised. I was afraid that the advantages of a case would not outweigh the added thickness and weight. However, what makes this case so great is the stand feature. It is so easy to use and type on the tablet when it is perked up on your lap or on the table in front of you. If you are on the fence I'd recommend this case 100%.
Edit: I have the "multi-angle" one (search Amazon)
I have been using this for a few weeks now. It's is a nice little case. Workmanship is vastly better than the comparably priced Acase I returned when the stitching started unraveling.
I dunno if this has happened to any of you guys but after having this case for about 2 months now, I decided to take the tablet out and give it a clean. Lo and behold I noticed that the case has discolored the back of the tablet. I have tried using alcohol to clean it with a cloth but no dice. Anyone else got this?

Rats! I have been using mine for three weeks and this has not happened yet. Should I just nip this in the bud and move to a better case? Any suggestions as to a good upgrade? I'd prefer something thin.
I don't have a recommendation for you other than to warn you to get another case before yours becomes discolored like ours.

OK, thanks. I just ordered this case from amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Infinite-Adju...P6/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1314814140&sr=8-11
Will post my impressions when I get it.
Cool, looking forward to it
I know this is an old thread but I just wanted to add that I have this case and have been using it for about three months now. I just checked the back of my Tab and it's pristine. I have the metallic gray back though, not the white plastic. It's a really great case-if you have the metallic back, don't let the complaints scare you-it looks like the discoloration only happens to the white plastic ones.

Vipertech Premium Leather Slim Case on amazon for $14.99 shipped!

Just a heads up- looks like many of the other cases reviewed here but this one is only $10 shipped. I just ordered one; I'll review it when it arrives. 9 5-star reviews!
*Edit: looks like it's up to $15. Still, appears to be the same as the pyro case and a few others that sell for twice that.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...-options=see-all-buying-options&condition=new
Wow, that looks almost exactly like the Pyro skin clip case that I just bought for $30 bucks. It's listed on amazon for $14.95+shipping now. How did you get it for $10 shipped? If the quality and build is anything like the pyro, I'd be intrigued

looks like they upped it. It was $9.98 when I posted.
I think that the pyro case (and several others) are the same rebranded chinese thing. I really don't care, all I want is to pay less for it. At $15, it still beats most of the others by at least a few bucks. I'll review it when it gets here.
BTW- I'll update the OP with the price.
I bought this case from amazon for 9.98 shipped and received it in two days! They apparently had a promotion going because they refunded my money and let me keep the case for free in exchange for a review. Great case, great build quality and looks great!
This is the 3rd variation of the same case. I think it's all the same manufacturer just different distributors. I'm in!
Just got mine for 9.98 great quality and got it for free after I left them a review.
I don't know how everybody is giving this case such great reviews. Sure, it's cheap and does its job, but the quality is definetely not there. I got mine yesterday and the clips on the top seem somewhat uneven between each corner. Also, the case does not stay fully flat when holding the tablet opened in your hands. That's quite annoying and makes it basically unusable to me. The case also seems to bulge when closed due to the middle clamps holding the tablet; which, by the way, cover a bit of the bottom portion of each speaker.
For the price, I'd give this case 4 stars, but 5 stars is just too much. People are easily satisfied I suppose.

Look, I don't disagree that it's not perfect, but after owning many, many different cases for many different tablets, I have to say that this one is about as good as it gets for the price. The only cases I've seen that are better quality cost $50 or more. Maybe you got one that is defective; for the price that wouldn't surprise me. Get them to replace it. Also, please don't dismiss those of us that are happy with the case with "People are easily satisfied I suppose." That's rude.
BTW- I tried to figure out what you were talking about when you said "the case does not stay fully flat when holding the tablet opened in your hands" and realized the problem: you're not holding it tight enough. It's new material and needs to be conditioned. Squeeze it a bunch of times to loosen and crease the bottom edge.
I'll try to conditition it when I get home. Do you also notice a bulge when closing it from the middle clips?
does this case fit with an invisible shield by zagg?

Yes. I have a clearprotector full body protector and it fits fine. So far no problem with it catching when I open and close the flap.
BTW- I think this is exactly the same case as the "pyro case" which has a huge thread here. Except much less expensive...
Please be honest guys, does your case stay flush when opening it 360 degrees without pushing it against its back? I find this highly annoying. I've been trying to break the leather all day and have had no success!
Also, anyone else here find that the locking flap marked their tablet over time? I'd hate for that to happen.
Thanks in advance...

I received my case with a note that said if I left a 5-star review I would be given a full refund, thus getting my case for free. I'm assuming that's why it's getting so many 5-star reviews.

My case doesn't stay flush (if you mean folding it completely back like a magazine?) but neither did my belkin ultra thin folio. I believe its because of the design. The only way I can see it staying flush is if the material used was very pliable or there was a hinge (kind of like a notebook with rings).
Also, I too felt that it might scratch my tab with the front clip, but so far it hasnt. Overall, its a good case and in some aspects better than the belkin ultra thin folio.
Yeah, it's growing on me. I do wish it stayed more fluch when fully opened. I feel they could have made the flap holding both parts together a bit longer to allow that to happen.
I'm going barenaked with the tablet on this thing. I really hope it doesn't scratch the edges of my tablet. I have been puyshing the locking flap a bit outward so there's not much resistance to close it. Seems to help a bit.

What on earth would make this case incompatible with the verizon version of the tab? Something in the case blocking the 4g signal?

Black Bumper for S3 (HQ pics) Recommend!!

Let me start this review just by saying that i love bumper cases. I
have been looking over the internet to find the best bumper case for
our Galaxy s3. I came across this case. Its a STRONG silicone bumper
that completes me in every aspect.
First of all. Its cheap. I think that everyone can try a cheap case
and if they dont like it, they throw it to their dog. (hehehe) Guys,
seriously. this is the best bumper case i have seen over the internet.
Why? It has a nice touch when you are holding your
phone. VERY nice touch. You will want to just hold your phone because
it has a nice feel Second of all: PROTECTION. And i mean it. Front,
back and sides are fully protected.
Front side (screen): the case has a slight bump on the edges so if the
phone drops the floor, its still protected (floor not the road hehe).
Back: Again, the case has a bump on the edges. So if your phone drops
on the back, protected!!! if you want to lay down your phone on a
table: PROTECTED.
Sides: Full protection, which is obvious why: its the case hehe.
Buttons: FULLy accessible button, both power and volume buttons. They
are covered by a soft silicone so there are very easy to press
(compare to the other tpu case i have reviewed)
I dont know if there are more colours available. You must check on
sellers ebay site.
Rating: If this case would be rated its a rock solid 5/5. Believe me
on this. It defenently worths every peny guys. I even compare it with
a TPU bumper case, that i have reviewed last week, amd this is by far
better.
Enjoy the pictures. I tried to take as many as possible.
I will review more bumper cases in the near future so stay tuned.
You can buy this on this link:

if you find this review helpful, hit thanks
Nice review! Around the volume rocker it might need a little work but I've already ordered one of these.. 4$ shipped to Canada and it looks decent.
Thanks for the review!
You will like the case mate, i guarantee you that. Feedback when you get it so everyone knows from you too
Good review, I have the white one. Easily the best case.

I love the idea of this case, but had a similar one for my Galaxy Nexus which fell apart in a matter of days. Would be interested in reading an updated review of this one in a few weeks.
I have this case on my phone for a while and feels very steady guys. Note that i am snaping batteries daily, so the case comes on and off (by me i mean) and I havent got a problem so far.

Do you guys mean the material of the case degraded? This is all one-piece right? I was JUST shopping for my first bumper case and saw some aluminum ones that snap or screw together, but it seemed like the TPU ones are just a single piece of material and wrap around the edges.
Its a single piece mate. Plus you dont lose any signal plus its a snap in snap out plus its veryyy cheap
How does this fit with a zag shield?
Galaxy S3 Paranoid ROM.
I think that with the zagg shield you will be ok. The case has already a tight fit so its better not to use extra protection underneeth. I dont think you need zagf shield for the back cover because its already protected from the case.

If it is anything like the one for the Galaxy Nexus (and it appears to be the same), there is a hard plastic material used on the rear portions of the bumper, while the piece which surrounds the screen is flexible rubber. With the GN, the two materials separated.

Thanks for the review, I ended up buying the same one but in white. I'm guessing they come from china because this thing isn't going to arrive for like three weeks haha. Oh well whatever.
My clear diztronic tpu case is starting to turn yellow and blue from my jeans so I really need something else. For three bucks I hope it holds up for a little while.
Do you think the the bezel or screen would get damaged if I dropped it from pocket height and it hit the corner on cement? Just wondering if I should still be extra careful when using this bumper.

Don't buy the Double Dip Flip!!!

Hi
I just thought i would share my experience after a month with the official DDF case, a case that is lacking in both design and durability. I got the case free of charge when i took out my contract with Vodafone and put it straight on the phone as soon as soon as it left the box and that's where the 1st issue came up, the case didn't actually close! Laying it on a flat surface just resulted in the the front of it springing open as there is nothing to keep it closed however after a few days it was worn in a bit and sorted itself out. Also for £25 the quality isn't that great.
After a week i took the phone out the case and to my horror it was badly scratched on the back due to tiny bits of grit getting caught in there and this is purely down to the design as there are 2 slits on the back which allows it to go into a stand but they let small pocket stuff in and if they are solid in any way they will get pressed between the case and the phone resulting in scratched aluminium. Luckily i got a replacement phone due to another issue.
I have had it on my new black One for a couple of weeks now whilst i get round to getting a new one however i have been cleaning it out daily to ensure it doesn't happen again however the case has just started falling apart. The rubber trim around the case has all peeled off and the matte finish is peeling off too, leaving a shiny plastic underneath and the red suede interior is now a dull black on some parts.
This is the worst case i have ever had for a phone and this is only with 4/5 weeks worht of use. I would strongly suggest people spend there money on a different case.

Hi
I just thought i would share my experience after a month with the official DDF case, a case that is lacking in both design and durability. I got the case free of charge when i took out my contract with Vodafone and put it straight on the phone as soon as soon as it left the box and that's where the 1st issue came up, the case didn't actually close!

They look good, hadn't seen them before and reasonably priced too. However, I've already gone for the Otterbox Commuter which is cheaper than this POS HTC case
I have pretty much the same problem. I love the case, I love the look of it, but it's coming undone around the edges...
Same situation here with mine.
Red felt is going black, the rubber edge has all come off and stuff keeps getting caught on the back. luckily it hasnt scratched my baby but it is annoying.
Any suggestions for a replacement case that does the same as this? I love how it folds into a stand
I have had this problem with almost every case I have ever had. That is why i put a full bad shield invisible shield on my phone and then put them in the case.
I also received the case free with my contract phone so i decided to use it until i bought a case that i liked. I used it for 4-5 weeks and the case still looks quite new. Obviously the red felt has faded a bit but that was expected. The only real problem i saw was that the Microphone hole didnt line up properly with the phone's Mic hole which is a bit stupid.

I bought this before reading reviews.
I agree that durability is poor,and have had peeling. Luckily not had scratches.
With regard to last point about Mic hole there's an updated version that fixes this.
I got updated replacement sent free, without requesting, from HTC accessories UK.

Had this case since 2 weeks ago, first problem was that the hole at the bottom was not aligned to the microphone hole properly (which greatly affected call quality) so I had to manually align it. The back leaves two light grey streaks on the back of my black HO from where the slits are, but with a good wiping they disappear. The red felt is starting to fade as well. Planning to replace it when the fixed version of the Poetic Atmosphere comes back in stock at the end of the month.
Thanks for heads jo mate. Will not buy

The other case HTC makes for the ONE
is an excellent case. It's a plastic shell case with two speaker covers which lock the phone in from the bottom and the top. Great fit, great feel, great case. 1 outta to ain't bad I guess.

Can you be more specific? "The other case HTC makes..." doesn't tell us much....

This maybe?

Is HTC.com the only place to buy this case? I want to grab one today but fear ordering direct and waiting a few weeks (it's backordered) is the only way to get one.
Do any of the carriers or Best Buy carry this exact one?
Edit: Sprint had them. It's a nice case!
Yep

ericshmerick linked the right one. Also, the other case HTC makes for the ONE should tell you everything you need to know since HTC only makes TWO cases for this phone, thus if you've used the power of deductive reasoning it would've taken you to http://www.htc.com/www/accessories/htc-double-dip/ which is a great case. Looks much better on the phone itself too.
You're welcome.
Eric, thanks for the link. AeroSatan, my powers of deductive reasoning tell me you're an ass. How'd I do?
You're welcome.

Simple and keeps the look of the phone too and the colour.
My DDF has scratched the top of my aluminium due to debris from either my pocket or something else getting in, marks aren't very big but they're ugly and I can see them.
Really p*ssed me off, and seeing as the DDF should cost £30 in a phone shop i think it's a joke.
As for the other DD case, man it is ugleeeeeey, it looks like a sad one eyed cartoon. Feels cheap and nasty.
FYI I have both the DD cases.
