Just ran across these on Ebay. not sure if they would fit out models or not but the black and silver ones look pretty slick.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Aluminum-Me...140?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27bf5c59f4
and they kinda looked raised like the 2000mah battery covers do. (judging from the looks of the camera hole)
might order one after my Taurus bumper comes in.
anyone already tried one??
Hmm... the black and silver look pretty nice - but I'd expect the price to be a bit less for random parts coming out of Hong Kong. At least the shipping is free though.
Maybe I'll try one.
Well, according to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1313054
They may not fit anyway... good thing I didn't buy yet.
Is it physicaly bigger or is it just that the tabs dont line up?

Seller said that if it didnt fit or i didnt like it i could return it within 7 days. so i ordered a black one. figure if it works that it will look good with the Taurus bumper i ordered.
over in the i9100 forum for the 2000mah battery+cover they show that the korean version fits but a few of the tabs that secure the side have to be dremel-ed off. im hopeinh since this is coming from korea also thats all ill have to do.
I'll keep you guys informed.
Hopefully they fit, if not they need something like this for our phones. Looks so sick!

thats great! hope it fits, can't wait to hear back and see how it all goes
I was look at buying this battery cover when I came across this thread. Seems to be the same as one in the original post, but it's a few bucks cheaper. Fingers crossed it works out!
Has anyone received this yet? Im curious if these it or will need a bit of modding
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
Confirming this DOES NOT FIT the ATT model. I bought this when I had brought my white SGS II International model back from Thailand, and had used it a couple days on that. they do look nice. But then when I switched to the AT&T model I sold the cover with it. Wish they'd fit the ATT model. The only thing that really concerned me was if the NFC would work through the back, but we likely won't have to worry about that since nobody seems to have any motivation to enable the NFC on our phones, hehe.
still hve not recieved mine. acording to the shipping info it is listed to be delivered on the 7th.
as soon as i get it i will let you guys know.
I am curious as well, I really like the look of these metal battery covers.
Ok. Just got mine out of the mail box. I appears to be a thin peice of aluminum adhered to a thin plastic back cover. But i can Confirm that...
It DOES fit the AT&T GSII..
snaps right on no problems. and looks awesome with my black Taurus Bumper
i'll snap some pics later tonight if i can.

You mentioned it was a metal cover over the plastic backing, does this make the phone thicker in any way? Is there now a ridge where the battery cover meets the plastic on the phone?
Looks good though!
Phone is very very slightly thicker.
Not sure about the ridge. Would have to remove my Taurus to see. Might when i get home

I am on the prowl for a case for my upcoming Samsung Note. I am having difficulty finding (of course) any cases that are made specifically for the AT&T Version.
Do we have any confirmation that the International Version and the AT&T LTE Version are in anyway different? Mic Placement, Etc?
What are all of you buying for a case?
I bought a case from Amazon for 5 bucks for international note. If it doesn't work then I am out only 5 bucks.

From what I understand, device dimensions are the same, but no one has yet been able to say whether or not MIC placement is identical.
From the pics i have seen the Mic looks like it is in the same place but not sure about the 3 mm jack
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I emailed SGP and one other case manufacturer to see if they are the exact same.
The microphone thing worries me
Edit: just compared two back shot pictures of the note. One international and one AT&T. The 3.5mm jack is in the same position.
i ordered an aluminum bumper from ebay. it should be here soon. ill update everyone when i get my note!
for aluminum bumpers, i dont see a problem with mic placement. or the 3mm jack. you can just mod them easily.
anyway, speck a couple of cases out. i have used the candyshells on my iphone for about 2 years now and have dropped it about a billion times. the phone is in good condition still so they work good!
cimotech said:
As far as we have been told, the International and 4G LTE versions are identical in shape. The internals and weight are different, but cosmetically, they are almost identical. The only noticeable difference is the home button. The international version has a physical click home button but the AT&T version has a capacitance home button. This does not effect the cases shape. You can see images of the case we will have in stock (later this week) here:
Amazon ASIN: B0075WQ118 (introductory sale price of $4.95)
You should expect to see other colors (White, Clear, Blue, Red, Purple) in this style online in a matter of days. The Gloss and Matte versions will follow later next week. Let me know if you have any questions about this case.

Thanks...I see your case shows the AT&T Version with the capacitive buttons....guess that means your case should fit like a glove. I went ahead and ordered the white one figuring that if I didn't like it...i'd only be out 8 bucks.
On another note...(no pun intended).. I currently have an IPhone 4s and use a Credit card case like the one in the attached images... Since I've been an Iphone user since the very first one, I'm having difficulty finding decent cases for other phones (IE...Note).
Are there any cases like this out there for the Note?
TIA!
What are the holes on the bottom right of the phone? It is located on the backside of the phone directly across the speaker phone. I see some cases for the N7000 having the slots opened for it and some just covers it. Also most pictures of the International Galaxy Note does not have the holes there.. is this ATT only?
Thank you for clarifying that. Makes more sense, now I can shop with ease.
Cimo, thanks for the info. About to order this case right now.
Real quick, I don't suppose if you know if this will work with ProClip's vehicle mount for the note? I know they don't have much room for give so I was planning on going with no case on the phone . . . but I like the looks of this case and the deal is pretty hard to beat.
I just bought this one from Elago.
http://www.amazon.com/elago-Slim-Ca..._1_3?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1328640739&sr=1-3
I always used Elago with my iPhone 4. They're not the best at protection, but they're the thinnest short of a decal skin. For me, that's the most important thing on a big phone.
I bought the white, because I have the white note, but maybe I'll buy another color too later, or return the white. Hope it's not that tight, like the Amazon reviewer implies, but I don't plan on removing it ever.
This one seems to be thin enough too: http://www.amazon.com/elago-Handmad..._1_9?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1328640739&sr=1-9
I was thinking about getting the SGP because it covers the power and volume buttons.
http://www.amazon.com/SGP-Samsung-G...XD94/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328645558&sr=8-1
They also have a padded thinner case like the one mentioned above but it is quite expensive. I really want to get a aluminum bumper but $50+ seems too much for protection that don't even cover the rear.

And finally, does the Gloss and S-Line cases both feel about the same?
EDIT: Nevermind. I scrolled through your product pages and was able to find that purple case.
Here is mine. Just received it today. It's a G4-slim fit. It's a hard case that is super thin and has a rubbery non -slip feel to it.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Purchased 3 of these cheap cases and received them today. They fit very snug and what I actually like best is that they cover the power button and volume rocker and when you push on the buttons on the case, you are pushing on phone buttons but it is harder to push so that you don't keep turning off phone by accident and adjusting volume by accident.
Bought for $5.95 each from Cimo Cases on Ebay. Received in 3 days with free shipping. Beats the heck out of paying $30 for same type of case at Att or BBY.
They are nice and thin and make the phone less likely to be dropped because of the grippy sides.
Boxwave sells them too, as do many other sellers, but on Ebay they were less expensive.

Thx but I answered my own question too since both arrived last Friday & fit fine. I like this S-line TPU case so much, I'm about to order 2 more for backup. I had a similar TPU case (made by Belkin) on my iPhone 4 with no issues so hopefully there won't be any issues with this one too.
I ordered one and it fits really snug. The bad thing was my volume button didnt work with the case on so i had to cut it open to access it. Its ok overall but I ordered a different case because of it.
-On another NOTE, Samsung goes 5.3"
The volume works just fine on mine. I like the fact that you have to push harder through the case to operate it because without the case I kept hitting the volume and power button by accident. Now no more accidental power downs or volume adjustments.
i just wish I could find a holster that will fit with this on the phone. I love this and have had mine for a month and liked it so well I got it for me SGSII aswell. I found a holster that works with the SGSII very well but that was only because I got the skyrocket holster which compensated for the extra bulk but with the note being the biggest one out there I am at a loss...
I bought this same case in clear color, but due to convenience, I shelled out $20 at a kiosk in the mall.
ouch I think I paid 6 bucks
Yup, got a clear one, both form and function are just fine.
P.S. got it from this guy $1.99 delivered.

Hmmm... I was thinking about getting a white one. Does the whole thing get nasty or is it just the matte part? Have you tried some soap & water?
I Learned that the hard Way from my Old Iphone 4. Never to purchase white tpu cases that weren't glossy and i believe the clear ones turn green or yellow due to the oil from your fingers.
-On another NOTE, Samsung goes 5.3"
i just received this case today and I love it! it was about a week late, but for $6, i cant complain. it fits snug, looks and feels great, and I will probably be ordering an extra.
last note: the ebay add says its for the AT&T 1717, but it comes in a package for the international version. luckily there are no major differences, but the only difference i found is purely cosmetic- that being the camera is not centered properly in the camera cutout, but it doesnt block the lense at all, so its not that big a deal.
Does anyone know where I can find exactly the same case without kickstand?

I have this case in the white version, so I can only comment on that. It is a nice case for the money, the plastic covering the volume and power keys were really tough but I fixed that by cutting along the sides of them with a razor. It has two different finishes on it (I don't know why they didn't just pick one) and the extra grip on the sides is very helpful. The only thing I don't like about it is that the white version started to turn a little blue because I kept it in my pocket, but that probably won't happen to yours. Other than that its not the worst case I have owned . Hope this helped.
thanks. ya im thinking the black one. i just cant spend 20-30 bucks on a case. yes there nice for the money but i cant lol. also was looking at these cases

Really? Because I really hate mine. It's too bulky imo.
Get a soft, clear analog off ebay. Surprisingly, button covers were soft enough not to trouble me to cut them out, else the case is great for 3$.
i ended up getting the one i posted first. i really like the case alot. feels nice in my hand and is think but still provides some protection. fits very tight on the phone and isnt all flimsy. i like it and it was worth 8 bucks to me. also unlike my forst ebay case i got that thing wore down and it stuck to everything you could imagine. this case seems like it wont have that problem at all which is nice. i like this case and would recommend it to others for the price
Anyone have any experience with a case from Ventev? I've never even heard of them, but looking at their site it seems they make a lot of products.
Anyways I found this http://www.tessco.com/products/displayProductInfo.do?sku=532148&eventPage=1.
Honestly never heard of them myself. The price looks like it may be on the high end for what it seems to be, but if it's good quality then it'd be worth it. If you get one, post back and let us know how it is. I have a cheap Ebay TPU case on the way for now but I'm keeping my eye out for a good one.

Thanks, I saw that. I've had 2 piece cases on my other phones in the past (incipio, body glove) and I actually prefer the cheap TPU ones best. The cheap TPU ebay/amazon ones (like this: http://tinyurl.com/ct4ktzd) are really low profile, slide in and out of the pocket easily, are flexible yet firm enough to absorb shock from reasonably high drops and only cost like $3. Hopefully someone comes out with one for the OG soon. I might buy one of those ones you linked to in the meantime.

Ventev Case
The case arrived and fits the AT&T LG Optimus G E970.
The case consists of 2 parts, a TPU case and a Polycarbonate back cover. The Polycarbonate back cover can be taken off and you can then just use the TPU case.
All buttons remain functional with the case even though the case covers them, and all of the ports and the camera remain functional and accessible.
I have no problem slipping in or taking the phone out of my pocket with the case on.
The case does add significant thickness and heft to the phone, but the case seems solid.
I should mention that I ordered the case from Amzer.com, but it looks identical, and has Ventev printed on the back Polycarbonate cover.

Here's some crappy pictures. Only complaint is the tpu rubber part fits really tight. It was hard to get in and lifted up the corner of the screen protected. But took it straight from mailbox and put on phone, so maybe I should have let it warm up.
Thanks for the pictures, folks. I'll probably go ahead and get the Ventev case for now until Otterbox comes out If it does, of course).
So, from what I see, the Amzer and Ventev cases are identical, except for the logo on the back?
This is a very beautifull case. I think is over price at $20 but been a official samsung case and lower than last year cover case ($35) i think is worth it if u really want a miniman look no case like cover and keep ur device beautifull look.
I had the case for 2 days. Very happy with it and no scratches yet. The color is a very orchard grey like which maches perfect with all the phone colors avail. Snap easily and very tight fit. All cut outs are in perfect position. Not much grip since is plastic.
EDIT: HERE IS A REVIEW I FOUND. VERY BEAUTIFULL MINIMALISTIC CASE

I ordered the same one today from Amazon.
Is there an overhanging lip on the top and bottom that prevents the screen from touching if laid face-down?

Looks blue is only available for prime. What color did you get? Is silver actually clear? I have a black S8 not sure if the colors of the covers are that much different. I got a 30% off accessories from Samsung so I might use that but stupid me didn't pre-order so I might get that and a VR or just wait on the VR.

Is transparent dark grey. Looks like the back of the orchard grey version. Nowhere near blue. Still going strong. No scratch yet. which is what worries me about plastic hard cover case.

Well it better be going strong you probably just got it. hehe You probably could put maybe some clear tape or screen protector to prevent scratches. The Samsung clear covers are the only ones I buy. At times buy a cheap more bulky case to use when I'm golfing and drinking. I wonder if any stores have the cases in stock. I didn't see any at T-Mobile.

I ordered the orchid gray color and it wasn't prime so I have to wait a little longer.

I can't make up my mind between the orchid gray or silver. I didn't care for the orchid gray kind of makes the back look purple or maybe just the lighting in the picture. I've always got the silver and it makes the phone pop a tad more. imo Just a personal preference thing.
Is this a hard case?
Looks like the original Samsung clear cover.

U should definitly look around in tmobile cause thats was where i got it. They had like 10 availa. All other official samsung case were also avail. I was actuallu surprise for the $20 price tag since samsung has been way overprices on this cover. Always $35-$40

I got mine at Fry's. Love it and others that see it love it as well. They assume I'm not using a case.
I'm waiting for damn Samsung to get them in stock. I should get it for $13 with 30% email code and saying $18.50 on sale.

Try going to a corporate store. Thats were most tmonile have it. But i bet alot of them are sold out. I was the first one in on launch day and they offer me like 5 cases. Screen protectors, usb type c, charger, battery backup, s3 watch etc. I must have said no like 20 times.
I could imagine pushing accesories to buyers they would run out of inventory pretty quick.
