I am also looking for this kind of leather case.
However it is only an option for my when the lid has a built-in magnet for waking the device.
Until today I wasn't lucky. Every seller, that I contacted wrote back, that this cases have no magnet for waking. :/

That looks pretty good. I'm just waiting for a flip case that has both sleep/wake function and a notification light cut out.

I do think so.
However I am not gonna pay such an amount for a "piece of (maybe artificial?) leather", when I can have nearly the same for under 10€.
Furthermore I can't even buy hardware over Google Play in my country. (Austria)

Blehhh that sucks bro

Case with keyboard for galaxy note at&t

Hello, I am wondering if anyone knows of a case with a keyboard. I don't mean a cheap leather one. I mean a nice one with a fold or slide out keyboard that is close to the size of a 7" asus eee Pc one. If there isn't one like that, does anyone know of a nice metal or plastic case with a stand built in? I found a nice keyboard that can be used With it. I just need a case to stand it up on. My friend has a nice one for his iPad with a built in keyboard. Its make by Logitech. I don't know the actual name of it. I like chiclet keyboards the best. Thanks
Also, if there is a back battery cover with a stand, or a stand attachment, that would be nice too. I just ordered an aluminum bumper so it would nice to use a stand, bumper, and keyboard.

eBay. It was around $50 I think. You can buy the ones for the original galaxy note as the dimensions should be the same

Seems like a nice item, but not attached to the note but its protective case.
Still good enough!

Galaxy Nexus Waterproof case?

Does one exist?
I haven't done any extensive search but I looked the other day and stopped at some kind of plastic pouch.
So I don't think so. I'd try eBay, maybe some Korean or Chinese seller has one.

I wouldn't trust a ziploc bag to last anytime submerged. MAYBE against splashes, but I'd rather use something more reliable.

While those are. Both nice, unless u are using PGM which needs a comvatibke corner. How would u turn the screen on and off. And the aqua skin is almost identical to the iottie, except u only get one at 1/3 the price

I personally have taken my phone under water using a generic water proof bag. They were 3 for $10 USD. the only problem I had was if the water put pressure on the screen it would go crazy..... I just added more air to it and held it so I had to push through the air to select what I want. Ie picture or video

Here's a short video I took so u can get an idea of how it is underwater also.

Well but the skin is definetely not made for a daily use i reckon, I mean to make sure it is 100% waterproof you always have to use a new strip of sealing tape after charging, right?
Would be good to have a modified battery cover for contactless charging. I´m starting to work on a diving base for the next 2 months, and would be good to have something covering my GNx from water.
I wish lifeproof would make a case for us.

This is true. The lifeproof case cost over a million USD to develop, and they lucked out that the iPhone 4s was compatible. Not nearly enough people own enough Gnex to make it profitable, plus the GSM would need a completely different case from the LTE. FInally, my own experience with the case sucked. You can only take it off/on 50x before it breaks (not waterproof) and it destroys sensitivity. It's something you only want when theres water around, but you can only take it off/on 50x which sucks. Also, you have to test it every time before you submerge it. The waterproof bags are way better IMO.

I just bought a defender from amazon for only $28, that seidio looks nice but not $90 nice.
I'm going for the Seidio Obex when it comes out.
I'll only put it on when I'm Kayaking down the Delaware though.
I guess if you really want or need a waterproof case, it's a good option.

they have it listed on the site so I assume we can do so anytime we wish. I just don't have the cash yet
The OBEX case looks very hopeful! I've been meaning to find a waterproof one, thanks for the thread! :good:
just a pity its BLACK. yuck. at least otterbox "gets it" and has some nice colors. too bad they are still very expensive relative to alternatives.
I do want their dual tone blue one though

Cases with magnets

Hi I ordered a case online for my note 10.1 and after a bit of googling I saw that some had problems after using their case with a magnetic fastener that areas of the screen the s pen wouldn't respond to.
Just want to know if this is true and will my new note be safe if I use this case or should I change it for one without a magnet?
Think I'll remove the magnets and add a button or strap just to be safe

I have the official Samsung case for the note 10.1. It has magnets in it. Never had any problems, bought the case day 1 with the Note. Doubt Samsung would put magnets in the official case if they messed with the screen, just a thought.
No I got a case from Ebay and it has magnets I had the same doubt but it does not effect the device in anyway the SPEN is not affected in even the minutes way. The magnet are very low powered onces anyways

Asus premium case available

Found a vendor on amazon selling the white version.
http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Officia...7QO6/ref=pd_sim_sbs_pc_1?tag=androidpolice-20
Here is the same in black:
http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Officia...05&sr=8-12&keywords=asus+nexus+fhd+7+official
So I've purchased a black one and will be doing a review of it when i get it later this week. It does not appear to have the magnetic auto wake function, as stated before by others do to the patent being held by another company.

For an offical case it's not pricey. Take the flip cover for the note 8. It's 50 dollars. Every offical case out there is double what the aftermarket ones are. If not more. I'm buying because it's the offical case so I'm already expecting a premium.

I just found out this case doesn't support auto wake/sleep feature
I mean come on Asus!!! for a $40 case you couldn't add a piece of magnet!!!
This case and the travel case are both just big fails. Although I don't mind getting ripped off on OIM cases but at least I want to get a "premium" case.

They dont have the patent on that feature, therefore they can not use it without a hefty lawsuit from apple
