The case is like the barely there cases with a slide out kickstand built in.
Putting on the case was like putting on the barely there case. Taking it off is the same. Now using the kickstand....well....it's a hit or miss. You can't really use it in portrait, and I am not sure it's supposed to be used that way. That's because the bottom is exposed so the curve of the phone makes it rock back and forth slightly. Now the beauty of this is the portrait mode. This works the best and most stable.

i will post more stand case pics
don't like the fact that the top and bottom of the phone isn't covered by the hard case.. but it does look quite nice.
the stand case looks almost exactly as one that is available from Verizon w/ a holster. I am using this myself and only because of the stand - i don't mind that the top and bottom are exposed as I'm not really expecting to use the case for protection.
I like the case, how skinny is the case? Does it add much bulk? I like the fact that the top is not covered so I can dock the phone.
the stand hard case is really beatiful AND usefull... a precious things, could you make a little review on youtube ? i like to see it if stay in place well in landscape (i bet in portrait if you plug the cable on top the razr tip).
ATTENTION：barely hard case bit difficult press power button
pics will explain to you,so I recommend stand hard case

I wonder if the materials used for the case are cheap...Of course they are not comparable to kevlar, but are they premium enough to keep the sexy look of the phone?

this one you may looking for http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150705998...egories&_fvi=1&_rdc=1&clk_rvr_id=303553692937
thin and nice
I'm just utterly perplexed why manufacturers make cases for this phone with the SIM cutout.
How often during the day do you need to access your SIM and memory card? In my opinion, they just destroy the aesthetic design of the case.
People may say convenience, but in that theory, all other phone's cases should have cutouts on the back.
It makes me completely pass over a case if it has that cutout. Besides my grievances listed above, it's also another spot for a chip or scratch.
Just stupid in my opinion.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk
I completely agree with you, but the stand case doesn't have the cut out - one of the few that doesn't
just got mine in the mail today damn nice. touch exterior and the finish is great! even the ultra capsule sgp cases have some molding material hanging on the edges.
I have the same case as OP. And yes, Verizon sells it. I love it! I had the same exact case/holster for my incredible. It suits my needs perfectly. Recommended!

A word of caution:
I've been using a red Nillkin Hard case for a couple of days now and when I removed it there were a couple of red "stains" on the kevlar back. I've tried getting them off with detergent and even rubbing alcohol but they wont even fade. They're really not that bad but it looks a bit like a spilled ketchup and let it dry and it's bugging the hell out of me!

I was searching around and could not find a gel/TPU type clear case for the G1...for those of you who do not know...here is one example of a Nexus One case like what I would want:
http://cgi.ebay.com/2-Soft-Case-TPU...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item746a91e417
I know they do not show a completely clear one, but that is the material/type of case I would like. It is not like a typical silicone case -it is slightly like a hard case being that it does not bend as easily and it is not floppy at all.
Any ideas?
Heres the problem that I see...
How would you open the keyboard with that cover overlapping the front of the phone? That would probably be the reason those style covers don't exist for the G1.
As my fellow Oregonian said.. Soft cases and a slide keyboard won't really work.. If you look at the hard shells you'll see how the screen has it's own little part that clips on.. soft shells wrap instead of clip on...
I fail to see why they could not have a separate piece to put on the screen...?
If there is no such case... then could someone recommend a thin, yet tough, hard case? (preferably clear)
soft cases can't clip onto the screen part that has to slide up...
but here's something i found with decent reviews for the other colors.. clear hasn't been rated yet

Yeah I understand what you mean and thanks for that info...but - I was thinking not of a soft case 'clipping' onto the screen but you could slip a cover over it or around it -I am SURE there is some way to do it....

yea that case is rocking . I as well was looking for something like this! Thanks!! hey erebusting did you order it? did ya like it?
I ordered the clear one, and it came in yellowish like it was old or like someone was smoking around it or something.... the seller gave me a refund because he said they had no more, but I think that all the clear ones were just as yellow ? who knows....
also when you hold the phone in portrait mode on the top right and left corners of the keyboard section the case left a small gap on each side maybe about 1-2 millimeters as if it was slipping off...
Other than all that I liked it, but would not use it because it makes my phone look yellow / ugly... if I had a case like that with these flaws fixed then I would use it.

LMAO...Reading this was funny for some reason
Can you post some pictures? And would you recommend it? I am looking for a new case for my phone, and this one is one that I am considering
I had this case. I had a screen protector on, and the extra height of the screen protector made the screen portion of the case slip off. If you don't use a screen protector, it might work for you. I bought a Seidio case and never looked back. Super thin, rugged plastic. Comes in black so it blends into the phone.

zinite, I understand that, but see I do also have a screen protector on but the section of the case which goes on the screen is fitting fine, the section for the body is the part I have the complaint about. I will definately check out some Seidio cases now that you have mentioned that.
SolemnWishing, Here are some pictures of the case next to a clear hard case (which is actually clear and not yellow...)
Ace42, glad you got a laugh! haha...BTW I am wondering why you were laughing though, kind of odd to me ATM...
WOW! that case is really yellow. i was thinking about getting one thinking it wont be that yellow. but that is definitely gross smoker yellow
Dang... it looks like someone left that out in the sun for like a year or something..
Guess you know what happens to these cases when you have em for awhile... I've long given up on G1 cases: with a simple screen protector you should be on your way. I love the feel of the back of the G1, and a case would only screw that up.

I also love the feelings of the G1 without a case, but I have dropped my previous phones too many times to take that chance... haha
Any ways... Those pictures are from the same day of receiving that case, so it must be some fault on the seller....
its really a disappointment since there are no other cases (that I can find that is) like that for the G1...
any other recommendations/ideas?
Ok so on the tilt 2 it has a strap/charm hole to put well a strap or charm on ur phone, and i used it alot! But recently the little plastic piece in the hole that holds the charm/strap snapped off on mine, Does anyone have any good suggestions on what I could do, I'm rather clumsy so a strap is rather needed
Where on your Tilt2 do you have such a hole? Mine does not.

Its called a hanger hole, its in the manual
http://www.htc.com/us/support/tilt-2-att/tech-specs/
No my plastic cover never came off
Anyone got and idea of how to fix it?
Looks like the holder is part of the phone frame. If the little T-shaped tab broke off, you may be SOL on fixing it. Perhaps you could buy a broken Tilt 2 off eBay (I've seen them) and transfer the part, but taking a phone apart and putting it back together correctly is not an easy task.
I never would have guessed that hole was for a strap or charm, although that's quite apparently what its for. The T-shaped tab under the battery covers sure doesn't look strong enough for the purpose.
never had a hole on mine, whered u get that from?! lol

I never, ever would have guessed that that hole was for hanging the little charms off of. I once wondered why this phone didn't come with something like that when most phones did.

yep, i love hanging a charm or a cute screen cleaner from the charm hole.

Oh please do
I use a strap for mine. It works wonderfully!
Wow that's great. Does anybody know where to find a strap that would be good to wear my Tilt2 around my neck please? It would be great for working while wearing a wired headset. Hate keeping it in my pocket and I'm not happy with any of the holsters. Especially that oem one. That sucker will help a guy lose his phone in a hurry...
EDIT; Nevermind. I figured out to search for the words phone and lanyard on ebay. Decisions, desisions.
Memory card lanyards work fine too. I'm using a lanyard for a SanDisk MicroSD adapter for my phone. It works great.
Whoa, that little plastic bit holding the weight of a Tilt 2 on a lanyard or wrist strap? Sounds like tempting fate to me. I never have used a wrist strap on a phone and this definitely doesn't inspire me to try it now, lol. HTC should have built something a little more substantial than that into the frame if they wanted it to be really useful as a hanging point for the phone. I have been wondering where the strap on the HTC accessory page was supposed to attach, now I know.

You are correct. It does look cheesy. However, so far so good. I do think it is important to be certain that the string of the lanyard is seated to the base of the "T" opening really well. Fortunately that is easy to pull off. Also I don't think I'd swing it around by the lanyard with the cover off. After a few weeks of using a wrist strap and a neck lanyard I don't see any signs of stress on the plastic. So maybe it will hold out.
For me this is the best good looking case for HTC EVO 3D....

Yeah that is really nice looking but shipping and time is kinda lame. Looking for somewhere else to order this but cant seem to find anything in NA. If someone can find this i bet a lot of people would be interested...
all retailers for this particular case are located in China unfortunately. One of the other two offered a slightly cheaper price but you pay for shipping and it comes out to be about the same as the one from ebay in terms of shipping length and total price. The only difference is you can choose faster shipping but it costs more than the case itself which essentially is pointless. The other retailer sells them in bulk.

i'm a case whore so.........subscribed! please let us know how the case is.
Just got the case in, I'll post pictures later tonight but here are my initial views and opinions:
lightweight, plastic, sturdy. Feels good in hand, thin, not made of the greatest materials but for 6 bucks who can argue. The carbon fiber feel on the back seems all good and fine but thats really about it. Feels more like those skins you can buy online as well.
The cut outs of the case seem to be in all the right places not disturbing the functions of the phone. Although I noticed sliding the 2D to 3D button to be a bit troublesome (not a bad deal for me since I rarely use this), and the volume rocker seems like it needs to be pressed with the very tip of your fingers (this one can get somewhat annoying I can forsee).
This case covers the back well, also covering the camera (of course not covering the lenses, speaker, and LED flash). The case on the sides extend far enough so that the buttons that would usually protrude without a case are protected with this case on. The front however is not well protected, usually a case would somewhat add enough to the front as to not let the glass screen of the phone touch the object you set it on. The problem here is, apart from the screen, the front of the phone is in danger of being scratched.
What this case tries to add is style with a slim feature, although the case adds no added protection whatsoever from drops or aggressive scratches this case is more for people who just like to add a bit of zing to their phone. Another problem though is that this case has no felt or soft covering the inside of the case. The problem here is that if dirt, sand, or anything coarse gets in there it can cause scratches. To add to that also, the case is hard to take off (maybe its just me but I didn't want to force it off). I've had some cases scratch my phone when trying to remove them and I can see this case adding to that as well. I would rate this case a 5 out of 10. 5 for the style, design, and feel but a minus 5 due to the lack of protection, possible scratching, and annoyances of some parts of the case.
**This review is just MY personal opinion and should be taken as just that, an opinion. For 6 bucks you can't go wrong but at least now I have provided you with my own personal feedback to get your brain cells tingling.

I got one today and its exactly what fsalazar said. Nothing to add or correct. No front protection at all... However, I've noticed that pulling the case off is easier if you've done it a few times and (for me) the easiest way to get it off is by pulling (quite hard) at the bottom.

I've been Googling, eBaying, and Amazoning (last fictional verb sounds kinda cool) for a common, flat case for my Tab 2 7.0.
It has become my number one remote control, so you can probably understand how uncomfortable a flip case is, adding an extra step every time I want to change a channel, or having a cover hanging (why in the world are 95% of the cases are now "folio"?!). Also, most cases either block the IR transmitter entirely, have some part obstructing it partially, making it mandatory to aim with "the" angle towards my TV set.
I have found a few silicon cases on eBay, but they have an S line, or weird X across the whole thing, that just make the device look fugly to me. No offense if someone likes it or has it, as we know, everyone has different taste.
I'd like to just get a regular, non-flip, non-folio, non-X-or-any-character-of-the-alphabet-drawn, plain cover, that protects the rear of my device, and doesn't obstruct the IR blaster at all. How hard can it be? The perfect fit for me would be a flat, matte black rubber thingy, with a hole where the blaster is... so simple, and inexistent! Maybe even better, a hard case.
Anyone found something, somewhere?
OtterBox
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 Defender Series Case
I've looked but haven't found any.
I tried out the S curve case that was made for the GTab Plus and it fit horribly. It's too bad that the Gtab 2 isn't popular enough to have more cases. I was hoping for a Cruzerlite case, but I don't think it's gonna happen.

Why not just get one of these cheap tpu style cases and just cut the tabs off that hold the cover?

That's exactly what I planned on doing if I couldn't find anything... get rid of the cover, and/or punch a hole for the IR sensor on the ones that are designed for P3100.

Got one, and it fits perfect! I'll post some pictures tomorrow.
PS: Anyone has tried matte/antiglare screen protectors? Been thinking about one, but not really convinced.
Try the Capdase silicone case for Tab 7.0 plus. Although mine is the folio type, (silicone case with IR blaster slot + leather folio) their plain silicone (w/o the leather case) seems exactly what you're looking for. Just plain flat black silicone, no x or s or whatever. just plain flat.

Got one, and it fits perfect! I'll post some pictures tomorrow.
PS: Anyone has tried matte/antiglare screen protectors? Been thinking about one, but not really convinced.

Do the corners of that case create a bit of a bevel/lip where they clamp on the tab? In other words, when you put the tab face down on a desk/table, is there a space between the screen and desk/table or is it flush?

I prefer the matte over the clear screen protector. The clear one gets sticky at times, the matte is always smooth and you don't have to worry about hairline scratches and reflections in your screen.

Sorry I haven't taken the pictures! Yes, there is a little space.

I hadn't thought of that, you're right. What about color loss?

Well that's a little compromise. Color is not as sharp and bright as the clear one but not by a big margin.

I guess it's worth a try. I'll get a matte screen cover and see how it goes. Good input, thanks!
Now, the long overdue pictures . Since the back surface is mostly flat (that was the idea), I concentrated mostly on showing how it fits the tablet. My apologies for the narrow depth of field... unfortunately I didn't have my tripod's plate with me, so I had to take the pictures handheld, and the only way to get a steady shot was with a large aperture.
This is the general look of it:

Hope this one answers your question!
Profile. Love the way it looks. Really cool match for the tab's back color.
Opposite angle.

Dealextreme tends to be somewhat slow compared to individual sellers from Ebay, I believe this is because DX is the "middleman" liasing between customers who place orders and the suppliers who advertise their products whereas on Ebay, the sellers are the suppliers who respond directly to customer orders.
Hi guys!
First off, no, I am not affiliated with, nor being paid by SlingGrip to write this. But I do want to share this great little product since I haven't seen anyone else mention it for this phone.
When I first got my Note 3, I wanted something to supplement the one-handed mode that would help me use the phone with one hand. I looked at a few different solutions, but the SlingGrip caught my eye because it was pretty inexpensive and made in the US. I ordered a purple one and waited while it and my case came in.
All the SlingGrip is, is a small elastic strap that you can hook your fingers in to give you a more secure hold on the phone. I got it, peeled it off the card it comes on, and stuck it right to the back of my case. It holds very securely with a 3M glue strip. It does add a fair bit to the thickness of the phone and keeps it from lying flat on a table, but this was a non-issue for me. The plastic and elastic strip feel pretty good, and it's such a simple combo that I don't forsee it breaking under normal use.
This was a godsend for using the phone with one hand. I ended up not even using the one-handed mode on the phone, with this I can reach the entire screen without feeling like I will drop the phone!
I just ordered a three-pack since I got a new case, and I highly recommend checking it out!

Nice. As someone with elfin hands, this looks quite useful. Looks like I'll be doing some cheapskate crafting later :3
Approximately how big is the mounting square for these things? I'm really intrigued by these add-on holders (sling grip, iring, flygrip, etc) but the UAG case I have has all kinds of funky grooves and designs on the back. :x
Yeah, I was turned off by the grooves on the UAG case for just that reason. I'm guessing that the slinggrip is longer than the center part where the logo is...

I feel like you'd be much better off just getting a lanyard. There are cases that allow lanyard attachments and they're a lot easier to use, just throw it on your wrist.

Lanyards don't help with holding the phone at all. All that does is catch the phone when you've already lost your grip.
