basic tpu case with no flip cover? - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Accessories

Anybody purchased a plain ole thin, lightweight tpu case for their Note? Recommendations? I see one for sale on ebay, but it's only shipping from China right now.
I plan on using my Note in a Ram Mount in my car, so I don't want a flip cover, or anything too heavy. It needs to be grippy/sticky so it will stay put in the Ram mount too.

Update: I found this one on ebay today and bought it. Will let you know how it is.

Their screen protectors are pretty reasonable as well. http://stores.ebay.com/SF-Planet/_i.html?_nkw=note+2014&submit=Search&_lns=2&_sid=9639039

Nice, I just ordered this too. I have a Fosmon TPU case for my Nexus 7 and it's excellent.

Awesome, thanks for the info, Colchiro and 30Seconds. I was not familiar with the manufacturer.

For us Canadians, Amazon Canada has the same case linked by jkwjkw, but with free shipping instead of the $11 shipping with eBay (for me at least, in Ontario). Shipped and sold by theWireless USA, who I've bought from before several times and had no troubles.
(Sorry, can't post links yet. Just search on Amazon Canada "Fosmon Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 case" and you'll see it, sold by theWireless USA).
Seriously, love me some TPU cases. Especially for a tablet like the note, where I have to lay it flat on a table to write on, I have to tape the camera lens so it doesn't get scratched. I have a folio cover case as well, but I find it lifts the tablet too far off the table if I try to lay it flat. Looks like this TPU case is the answer.

Got my case today, and love it. Perfect fit, all of the holes line up, case is snug, and it's lightweight. Recommended!

Nice! How does it feel in hand?

feels nice and it has a lot more grip to it.
Does it collect a lot of dust?

Why would it collect dust ? never herd of any cases that collect.
The only problem with these type cases is the clear ones tend to turn yellow in a few months, the colored ones don't
now they have 7 cases, for only 17.99 great deal

Thank you Siberslug!
Just bought myself a case after seeing your thread. Thanks for posting!
My Vibrant gets here tomorrow, I'm even more excited now!
Welcome! The edges are more sturdy than the t-mobile case is, but the center is still flimsy.
It is also not nearly as sticky as the t-mobile case, which is a GOOD thing to me. It still has a grip to it, but it isn't so difficult to stick in my pocket (or pull back out)
I just received mine today...
This is the one I bought:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Black-Gel-Case-...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item5d2a05dbdb
I was worried that it would be a loose fit but it fits very snugly on to the phone. You have to try very hard to pry it off, which is good!
It's more plastic like than it is a gel like material but it feels very nice in your hands. The feel of it will get smoother after a few days of use once all the oils from my skin get onto it.
I ordered it on 7/19 and received it today on 7/26 and paid $2.98 for everything!
Just buy it in TMO + the screen protector. Pfft. I spent 600 on the phone. another 40 bucks for a case + screen protector. is nothng.

Cheap eBay bnumper cases, I got one, quick review with pics

The cheap eBay Bumper case I posted about on another board arrived today and it looks quite good until you pick it up and notice how thin and light it is which kind of goes hand in hand with it's massively small £3 price. It does the job fine on a S2 with the stock battery though but with extended battery the lip surrounding the front bezel is less pronounced.
It is not great with the Zenis dock either as it doesn't sit flush whereas the Zenis one does. I was expecting it to fit fine but the bottom is not sitting nicely like the Walnutt bumper does.
So far I think the Walnutt case looks the best and also feels like it's worth some ££ too. I especially like the lip bearing the Walnutt brand name on the back, it kind of completes an otherwise baron backside, something that the SGP NeoHybrid EX bumper lacks although I'm sure the SGP feels every bit as good and expensive as the Walnutt ones.
Considering the Walnutt bumper is thicker than the cheap eBay one I was surprised it was exactly the same thickness when put on the phone, I put it on my dad's S2 with stock battery to compare in the pics below.

Wow 10 pounds for shipping to Spain! What a RIP OFF. I'll write the seller and see what he says. I doubt though that he'll change the price. I've had books and computer parts delivered for less!

CaseMate Barely There ALTERNATIVE. Cheap.

After hearing feedback that the Barely There Case was found not an exact fit I thought I'd try out an alternative. I decided on the Hard Hybrid Back Case which can be found on ebay for less than £3. I also bought the even cheaper (99p) S-line for comparison.
The S-line I found easy to fit and remove, it had more protection on the top and bottom but it felt and looked cheap. The buttons were also covered with plastic which I didn't like.
The Hybrid case is very much styled like the CaseMate Barely There case but fits better, it's very snug and snaps over the Nexus. Getting it off can take a couple attempts. It has cut outs for both buttons which I prefer and has a nice grippy feel. Here are a couple pics:

Will this fit the extended battery?
Don't like how the bottom isn't covered.

Agreed. What's the point of having a case if it doesn't cover all the edges?
On a side note, OP - would you mind sharing the settings widget you are using? I like that the background is transparent.
AH i ordered a bunch of the hybrid cases off ebay. they are feel really nice! the only thing i dislike is how incredibly frustrating it is to take it off >:| (yes i swap cases often to keep the look fresh) but I have a white one and a dark purple one. as well as a S-line case. the S-line case feels nice but kinda bulky ><
each of my cases are like $2-$3
i'll post pictures of the white one once it arrives >> (two week shipping from HK)

Could be SwitchPro.
Case looks pretty nice. Currently using Otterbox Defender or whatever and it's comically huge.
Looks like a nice case, was going to ask if it would fit the LTE nexus but it looks like the seller doesn't ship to the states :/

u have to look around. all of the sellers based in Hong Kong would be willing to sell to the states. however, alot of the EU based sellers wont. it took me a good 20 minutes to find a white hybrid case that could be shipped to the US

was looking @ this before I saw this thread as it's pretty much the only one out there now...
I had pretty much the same one for my OG N7 and I liked it (has the magnetic turn-on/off thingy), But what I don't know about this one is if the rear has speaker/camera cutouts (can't tell), and I wouldn't want to get it if it didn't...
I have the black supcase for OG Nexus 7 and imo it is not the best case to buy. Quite bulky and the edges are not protected at all. I had dropped it 2 times WITH the case and the corners were still damaged. Another issue is that at the 2 magnets area (that hold the case closed) the soft leather became worn out soon and the magnets area is clearly visible now. Ultra slim frame case looks great though. But I would wait for a better shot.

I think I may go with this case too. I have a Moko case for my 1st gen N7 and it is nearly identical to this case and I am very pleased with the Moko case. I'm keeping an eye out for a Moko case but if I can't find one, I'll go with this one. Need to protect my new baby.
bought it
I bought this yesterday ill give a review on it when I get if some else doesn't first
I'm too new to post a link, but the MoKo case in black is now $3.99 + $4.98 shipping on Amazon with an earlier ship date.

Yours looks the same but $1 cheaper.

Gorgeous back cover

Just bought one of these for £2.99, it arrived in 2 days, and I got to say, it is beautiful. Feels so nice to use on my OPO. The picture really doesn't do it justice. I actually prefer it to the original sandstone touch.

Stumbled upon a review on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q43HYVeiiPo
and on amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MPIC9KO/ref=cm_sw_su_dp
Be careful with the generic back cover cases..
I ordered 2 cases similar to these, a red one and white one. The white one fits poorly so i sent it back. The red one fits nicely but after a week i took my phone out of the case and saw that it left red paint on the back of my sandstone black cover..GRRRR. So be warned about these cheap generic cases. I put tape on the inside of the case to prevent any more paint coming off onto my phone. This is my first 5.5" phone and i fumble it alot but only dropped it twice but these case will not prevent your phone from being chipped, as expected since it's not a full cover. I'm waiting for my new case which is a full shock protection case.
Doesn't look any different then the xtremeguard case that I bought for way cheaper.
$3.99 plus $1.49 carbon fiber back vinyl = $5.48 free shipping
