SPIGEN SGP Leather Pouch Crumena for Samsung Galaxy SIII

I was able to get this from a friend because he doesn't like pouch style protection so he has given it to me.
I personally love pouch-style over cases so in my opinion, this fits well and is great. Only thing is that I rather have a fabric like the one that came with the G1 over this leather feel. Amazon seems to sell them for 29.99. I can't post links so please search for
SPIGEN SGP Leather Pouch Crumena for Samsung Galaxy SIII, S3 for Verizon, Sprint, Tmobile, AT&T and other Carriers [Black]
comes in three different color variants. fits my phone perfectly.

Well reply to this and you'll get your 10th post and ability to post links.
I've ordered this pouch, and was wondering if there's enough room for an S3 with a "sleeve" case like Rock or the Diztronic one to fit into it?
Thanks

I've had the brown for about two weeks now, love it. The speaker hole cut out is a welcome addition.

those are terrible IMHO. They are nothing like the original ones that came with HTC. Super flimsy and weak.

No, the sleeve from SPG is tight enough where if you held the pouch with phone upside down, it won't slip out. Thats with the naked device.

I have the original G1 case, along with this and they are both equivilant...where are you getting your info from?
In fact, I can't find any difference at all...makes me think that HTC may have contracted with that company to make the original g1 sleeve

the vendor I get fromis every_sell
i have been getting pouches from them for almost every phone i've had.....I can't find a difference at all...
I once bought a pouch for them and was about to give them a negative review because they state OEM....i emailed them saying I was going to give a neg review due to them stating OEM.
They told me that htc actually contracted with who they get the cases from to make it for the g1...so all they do is redesign it for the new phones with the same material and build quality, hence stating OEM
i would have given them a negative review it was cheap and flimsey...but It isn't....it is a little deceiving they state OEM when it isn't, but the build quality doesn't suffer, so i dont mind.....if it did, i would have given them negative reviews

thanks for that link, i'll def look into that in the future! like those G1 style cases the most.

This thread is useless without pics. Lol jk but do you have a pic for real though

Scratch Issues

Hey question for you guys who own this case. I've been reading up on reviews for the crumena (mainly on amazon) and there has been some complaints about the case actually scratching up the phone. The scratches are mainly on the side and more specifically the back of the phone mainly due to the ribbon.
Are you guys experiencing the same problem??

christian, I didn't even get a days use out of the case. After fighting with it to get my S3 to go inside of the pouch, I ended up having to use a razor blade to remove the stitching as the S3 was stuck inside of it. I was reimbursed by SGP.

Lifeproof case for S3?

So after going to my local ATT corp store and seeing this case it looked pretty interesting. Do they only make cases for the iPhone? Tried doing some research and found nothing! Only iPhone cases.

Iphone and Ipad only. I would definitely be in for one for the s3 if the decided to make it though.

Thanks for posting that link. I have wasted lots of $$$ on screen protectors because I never liked how I applied them. No matter what I do, i get dust/bubbles, and all sorts of other issues. That roll-on screen protector is going to save me so much money and pain/anger.

If you have a hard time with screen protectors you should go check out ghost-armor.com . I have my phone wrapped in clear with a second layer of white carbon fiber, they will do the whole installation for you and they even covered my flygrip in white carbon fiber as well
My S3 gets me Blazed

Otterbox is coming out with a similar case called the Armor. Its been announced for the iPhone, but if anybody would build a non-apple version it would probably be them. I would consider asking them.

Sorry for the double post forgot about this one haha but how well does this protect the phone? I notice most wraps/full body ones such as zaggs leaves the top pretty unprotected. Same with slickwraps. Any idea how ghost armor compares?

Doubtful, Otterbox has their collective head so far up apples ass that it's not even funny. They couldn't even produce a case for the S3 release even though this phone has sold millions already.

I emailed Otterbox earlier to ask them about the Armor case. They don't have plans to make it for any other phones... iPhone only.

They could easily sell 100k cases for the s3 (10M sold so far).
I would buy it immediately

I would jump right on that as well. They did have a post on their site a few months back that they were working on coming out with cases for Samsung phones. It would seem that the s3 should be at the top of the list when they do.
It would be nice to have for kayaking and snowboarding, nice for listening to music in the shower too!

I bought the otterbox commuter with an hd invisishield and loved it. Then upgraded to the defender and while I like the defenders premise.. I hate that I get dust under the screen cover through the miniscule opening at the top where the front facing camera and ear speaker is. I may go back to the commuter and hd screen.

Anyone seen gimmick five slim "smart cover"

Has anyone out there heard or seen of these things. I was looking for a. Tpu. Or silicone case when I came accross these. I'm wondering what kind of build quality they have.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TF4bprFUwdE&feature=youtube_gdata_player

you dont have one? why did you call it a rip off then? just curious...it looks like a good case to me.

I have been looking at these and whilst I think it's great they are so slim I am a little concerned that if I remove the Note the back will be covered in the glue? Can anyone who has one please confirm? Thanks.

Mature name of the thread... not. Ask your dad to buy one for you and let us know what you think.

That's why I love xda. Is it wrong to find out if someone out there owns one and what its like. I don't mean ripoff money wise. I mean copy of crapple smart cover. Im not a kid and my dad is dead btw thanks. In the one video it shows them remove it from the sticky and show it won't stick to the case. So I'm not sure what it would do to the tablet pretty much why I asked.

The maker of the videos is located in Hong Kong, so I assume its a product from overseas, and although I'm willing to buy one I find it interesting, that the only place I see the Wraplette is on YouTube. There is no other mention of it other than videos. No place to buy it or a review of it. zip nada nothing.

I ordered the Gimmick Five a week ago (see this post). Hopefully I'll get the cover within the next week or two.
I'm just looking for something slim that will protect the Note against scratches while I wait for a better case. On the video it looks like magnets are used to lock the cover in closed position... I would have prefered an elastic band instead and not having the cover wrap around the edge to the back side.
Well well... we'll se what it's like when I get it.

PS. I've emailed Belkin asking them to make their fine Slim Folio Case for the Note 10.1 as well. A friend of mine has it for the iPad 2 and the case is awesome. To get in contact with Belkin I used this link and supplied the Youtube link as reference. I suggest everyone else do the same and maybe they'll listen to us.

Well if you don't want the bezel to be covered (I do) then you can just go for the Belkin Cinema Case for the Galaxy Note 10.1. Good materials used and nice finish I think.

Ok, well then it must be very different from the iPad version which I think has very nice quality. If by flimsy you mean the opposite to stiff well then that's a good think imho.

So you guys are going to (semi) permanently glue your Note's to a case?
"Magic tape -- allows adhesive to the device firmly and removal the device hassle-freely without any mark of glue."

Yeah, no.

Ugh... this doesn't look good at all!!

So now we know that magnets really should be avoided on cases for the Note 10.1. As I wrote in an earlier post I would have preferred an elastic strap instead.

Keep in mind any metal battery 3rd party battery door will loose all NFC and QI wireless charging. Since u cant even find a good case from the BIG case vendors dont be sad if you never see a metal door. Im so Pissed a LG for not giving this phone more attention so companies like Seidio and otterbox start making cases. There is no commercials on tv about this device at all. Samsung is all over the TV. Im keeping my G Pro until the note 3 comes out. I dont want to go back to a note 2 when the note 3 will be out in under 4 months. Another bad thing is no ROM support. I wish the HTC ONE was at least 5" and I would of gotten it. The S4 looks nice but im too use to 5.5".

I would agree. Your a case whore. LOL. Sell some cases. Your like me. I have 3 at the moment for the G Pro. I had a dozen for my Nexus 4. Like 4 different colors for my Note 2.

Skinomi makes quality products! I had their carbon fiber wrap for my old Asus Transformer Infinity tablet & keyboard. Not only was it gorgeous but, I never had issues with it. Just takes patience to fit on the curved sections of a product. That being said, since I use a case it doesn't bother me not having a metal battery door of some sort although that HTC One looks gorgeous from the factory!

Genuine Leather Cases?

Lots of "PU" leather, "vegan" leather ( yeeesh ), "bonded" leather so far. No love for murderous genuine leather?

Mine was a perfect fit for the OG N7. I now use it day-in and day-for my 2013 N7. It is, admittedly, a little too wide, but the fit is still excellent, and it looks very fine. (Of course, I carry the pouch around in a matching briefcase, so....) I highly doubt Dave will make a new one for the new N7, but it can't hurt to ask!
