Hi all just thought I'd share my experience.
Had this case about a week.
Leather looks good quality with neat stitching.
I do use the phone as a wallet, so we'll see how the card pockets hold up over time.
I did buy a cheaper non leather case that was similar, and it only lasted a few months before the card pockets started breaking.
The phone cradle is nice fit, and the buttons are fully exposed, which is a nicer feel than having to press through a secondary rubber button like on some cradles.
The clasp free magnet works well when using the phone with the cover flipped backwards, although with the cover closed, of you have cards and notes in the pockets it doesnt quite get close enough to engage the magnet, although I've not found this to be a big deal.
The case itself is pretty slim, but adding cards to the pockets bulks it up a bit, not much you can really do about that.
The camera and fingerprint sensor holes on the back are well finished, the fingerprint sensor hole is a little small, but not a big deal as my fingers are relatively slim.
The folding rear section to create a phone stand works well, though probably not a feature I'll really use.
Overall I am happy so far

Thought I'd post this up; I bought this off ebay for £2.52 which is a bargain, given the product does what it says on the tin and still feels quite robust.

It is about a millimetre thick but it still fits easily in my hand. There are cutouts for all the ports, switches and the pen; but it will still make pressing the buttons marginally harder.
One nice thing I noted was that the cutouts around the USB port and pen are larger than they 'have' to be, so getting the pen out is easy and you can use USB cables with large tips.
I went with this because there was another cheap case with a stand but people complained that the leg didn't feel strong on that one. This one however, feels quite strong. Double hinged and on a rail, the leg feels quite premium and will lock at 4 different angles.
I think this is also the same thing;

But I got mine off ebay here (I like this seller because he sent it in a bubble envelope and wrapped it in bubble wrap bags 4 times over). [More pics at the ebay listing]

I bought this so I could protect my phone a little and watch movies when I'm on a plane. I think it will serve me well.

‣Design: The Pocket case has a simple, pebble-grain design that will hold the Galaxy S III in the rear pocket, and few cards in the front. The back pocket has a nice pull-tab to ease release of the phone from the case. It works fairly well, as the fit for the phone is pretty snug. There are holes in the back for the speaker.
‣Protection: It does offer all protection except the top. Inside the rear pocket is lined with microfiber cloth so your phone is definitely safe inside. As to how much protection from drops, because it is not securely installed onto the phone, I will never know! But anything from issues with placing in your pocket will definitely be no issue with this case used. Because of its texture and larger size than the phone, you have a much better grip.
‣Conclusion: The simple, clean lines of black stitching contrast well with the elegant pebble finish. It definitely has the looks, and the microfiber interior is definitely a plus!
+High quality
+Nice feel
-It is only usable when the phone is not used!
-Drops feel a bit unsafe!
I appreciate your thanks!

Just wanted to share my idea. I have a heavy duty occupation and went with copter screen protector and a wallet case. The wallet case has snap on attachment and opens from right to left. The sleeve has three card slots and a bill slot. In my opinion the sleeve was quite annoying since it's so light it wants to close over the screen all the time. I got the idea to put a thin metal plate in the bill slot to make the sleeve heavy enough to make it fall open easier. The bill slot is exactly the size of the screen, so there won't be any pressure marks on the screen from the edges of the plate. I cut the plate with small margin and smoothed the edges and corners so as not to cut the sleeve. Bonus effects are added protection against pressure and blunt trauma and added weight (I tend to drop my phones if they are too lightweight). I'm still on the lookout for an even thinner and lighter sheet of metal to use but am quite pleased with this solution as is.

IMAK Transparent Crystal Clear Hard Cover Case Shell Compatible for OnePlus On... http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L4APLTA/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_awdm_KudYtb0155H8V
I ordered the above case from Amazon due to Prime shipping. Below are a few quick thoughts and photos. Photos are not the best but should give you an idea of fit.
It is exactly as advertised, a clear hard snap on case. I tend to prefer no case or a thin TPU, but at least with this case I can see the phone(I hate covering a phone with a bulky case). Even though I prefer no case, this one does look good on the phone.
Pros:
-Cut outs for power and volume are tight, but even with my sausage fingers I can hit them easily.
-looks great
-good build quality
-fits perfectly
-cheap $10 shipped
Cons:
-goes without saying but minimal protection
-biggest gripe I have, the lip on each side is equal in height to the screen. So no sitting the phone face down.
-company stamped their logo on the back. It is small so I don't mind, but it looks like a drunk cross eyed person did it. It is off center and crooked. I will have to figure out a way to rub it off it is that bad.

Does the case interfere with the flash when you use it?
I've bought one too. Now the wait begins.
