[Q] recommended slim case with no S-Pen troubles - Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories

I had two cases already,
a 360 case and a slim leather with magnets.
the 360 was very convenient for standing positions with alot of options, but was too big.
the leather was very slim and comfort for holding and taking away, but the angles for positions were lacky and the magnets are messing up with my S-Pen and that's unacceptable for me. The tablet is 90% for studying (I write on it as notebook) and I have to have it working..
Do any of you perhaps found some good cases with fine viewing angles and positions but yet slim and light?
I only care for 2 viewing angles:
~80 degree, a standing one for watching, it doesn't have to be super stable at that one
~30 degree, for writing, this one must be stable.
I'm willing to invest few extra bucks for a fine case.
please share what have you already found, I don't wanna waste more money and time for 'testing'.. Asking the sellers is pointless, they barely speaks English and 100% don't understand what the freak do I want from them
Thanks alot ahead!

I bought this 2 years ago, It still works great but it's no longer available on Amazon:

Thank you very much,
a question for both of you:
if you put the case on that angle:

Can you lean your hand on it and write? is it comfort for writing or does it bounce up and down easily? how stable is it?
Also, have you found one of these (especially the Moko one that caught my eyes) on eBay?
I'm not from USA, so amazon is pretty useless for me, and I can't find it on eBay aswell

It Does Bounce some. Also if you stand it up it will try to slide out of the Clips. I put a piece a two sided tape on the back across the top to prevent this..
But in either position i can Use the s-pen. I like the case because its simple but protects the screen from scratching when out and About.

I agree - in the position shown, I have no problem using the S-Pen.

Got my car holder today

Very good service from ultimate-mobiles.co.uk, ordered yesterday and didn't expect it to be here when I got home.
Here's some pics I took. Gonna fit it in the car shortly. I like the way the legs come down and recess again if you don't want them there. And I like the white release button on the back. Also, the side clamps aren't big,ugly and obtrusive like many others. A very cool little black and white vent holder which I trust to hold the phone more than many others I checked out.

Awesome, 80 views.
Lol aww bless.
Don't go all huffy mate...
Personally I don't like how it looks. But it defiantely looks strong enough to keep the phone safe. Also good to know that company has good service, spotted a few things I fancy.
But I don't like how it looks, I'm sticking with my exogear.
Where did you bought it? It look very nice!
How much it cost?
Tks.
Looks really nice buddy, I'm thinking of ordering the vent mounted one too. At the moment I have a suction cup one that I used to use with my nexus s. The problem is the galaxy s2 is thinner than the nexus so my mount doesn't quite hold it so sturdily. These look ideal, any chance of pics with it installed so I can see what it looks like? Cheers
Sure, here it is, I took these pics today, here's a little gallery.

Rodrigo, it's from ultimate-mobiles.co.uk
I forgot to do pics in landscape mode. So yea, there's a knob on the back which loosens off and then tightens so you can rotate to landscape mode.
I've tested with some emergency brake stops, and the phone feels very solid in the holder, not shaking itself out. Also, you can adjust the vertical and horizontal angles so you can get the phone facing exactly where you want to the millimetre.
small world I live in Whetstone, lol
I got the suction cup version of this after I realised the magnet in my magnetic mount was screwing with the compass!
It's been serving me well for six months. I don't use the foldy out feet - it grips well enough without them.

[Q] Is there any waterproofed bike holder for GNote

Hi all,
I am looking for a waterproofed case for bike for my Note, does anybody have an idea where to buy? I can only find small ones where I can't put my Note in.
I did see one on der Bucht but cannot find it now.
However these guys may have a solution www(.)ram-mount.co.uk/aqua-box-large-size-p-1347-c-360_162.html

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ws/eBayI...&ssPageName=ADME:L:OU:AU:1123#ht_15442wt_1163
this case has rubber plugs to block up the earphone jack and microusb jack to help improve water resistance. it wont block up the microphone holes though.

ortlieb handlebar bag
Ortlieb makes an excellent waterproof handlebar bag and they have an accessory gps soft case that attaches to the top. It is a simple elegant rollable bag design that is 100% waterproof and my note fits perfectly in it, maybe a bit tight as it takes an effort to take it out of it, but just a minor thing. The touchscreen and all buttons work perfectly while in the bag but I still haven't tested it while raining.
the bag

the gps case accessory

The setup is a bit pricey but so is the note : )
Hope that helps.

Ha, I'd forgotten about my AquaBox. I've several smaller sizes I've used for years for Nokias, but I still have the original too-large one I'd gotten for an N95 so I've just pulled it out and it's absolutely perfect ! It might look a bit silly on a bicycle but it's perfect for my motorbike. It even fits perfectly with my flip case still on

Not really I'm afraid. It's got a flexible (replaceable) screen on the front and I've been trying it for a few minutes. Sometimes I can get it to register a touch or a swipe but mostly not, I guess it's generally just too thick for the electrical signal to get through and be registered properly.

Spigen Leinwand

Hi
I have found a case wich seems great, but I can't find any review or test (appart the one of the official site, like "OMG when I received this case it was the best day ever")
http://www.spigen.com/spigen-sgp-samsung-galaxy-note-leather-case-leinwand-series.html
It seems pretty good... but a little bulky, no ? And maybe to pricy for the quality ?
Besides, according to amazon or wathever, the product weight 227 g (8 onces), which is like 2 times the weight of the GN ! Is it the whole box or just the product ?

Could you make a small review if the case? For example does it have any magnets? Also is it stable enough when used as a stand?

yup thats what i based my decision on. the stand however is a bit tipsy and the case needs some flexing before it will stand properly. other than that, no complaint.

Regarding the stand position could you also place it horizontally rather than vertically as shown in the video?

it works in both portrait and landscape mode, but it is highly recommended in landscape for videos and such because it's super flimy in portait.
What I ment was placing it in landscape mode but more horizontal rather than vertical as shown in the video. To be more accurate I mean using the bigger part as the stand rather than the small one as displayed.
I think what he meant was if he could get more angle when using the flip as a stand.

The case of the 1st post seems to allow more angle, no?
Senr from my device using my finger
sorry I misunderstood. the case you posted has 2 angles. whereas the case I posted has only 1 angle.

New dock. Take a look :D

I just found this new dock. It looks neat and cool. It should fit the S3 just fine.

There are 51 reviews, average of 3 out of 5 stars.
As a previous owner of the dock, I recommend staying away. As you can probably tell by the pictures, the dock is unstable and tips easily. But to make it worse, they only put a rubber grip on the back but not the front, leading to a lot of sliding around. Not to mention the rather high price tag. Avoid if you want an actual functional dock.

Benuo Leather Card Case

Hey guys, I recently got hooked up with the sweet case. It's made by a company called Benuo. I got the black version.

I really liked it. It definitely will come in handy on a vacation or short get away. I tested it in a few different scenarios. It doesn't work with Samsung Pay if you have two cards in it (which is the purpose of the case.) If you don't use Samsung Pay, this won't be a big deal. I use Samsung Pay for nearly all my purchases so the case will only be used when going somewhere where I'd like to have less in my pockets.
I also tested it with wireless charging. That was a hit or miss. It worked with my stock Samsung Wireless Fast Charger but didn't with my off brand wireless fast car charger. Also, when I did wireless charge it, it retained a lot of heat. (I'd recommend not using the case while wirelessly charging.)
Overall, I think the quality of the case is decent. It gets the job done while providing its purpose, to hold two of your cards. I don't see myself using it unless I will be on vacation or going out. That isn't to say that it isn't a great case cause it is. I'd definitely recommend it to someone who would like to save some room in there pockets.

I too picked up this case. I have to admit... I really like this case. The fit is good but the corners are not snug. I thought that was a flaw until I needed to use Samsung pay. It came right off with no issue and came back on.
The leather is legit. Stitching was strong. While it won't be my daily driver, its good when I go out.
