Non-Book case that will allow access to SDCard Area.. Suggestions? - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

I need a case. Here's my qualifications:
1. not a "book", or flip-cover style.
2. Allows access to the SDCard slot area on the top and bottom.
3. will provide some impact protection.
Here's a picture of the reason for my case needs.

I'd like some suggestions. I'm considering purchasing the Otterbox Commuter case and removing the areas in question with a dremel

I just ordered the trident aegis case (have not received it yet) and it has just rubber covering that spot. There is a video review on youtube but I can't link 'cuz I'm a noob.

Thanks. Let me know when you get it. I am interested. After looking at the pictures, I may just pick one up anyways.

It's connected to the internal UART connections. The device is a bus pirate. UART is used for kernel and bootloader debugging.

I think i've found a winner...

Silicon case + Screen Protector + keychain (will be thrown away).

The Trident Aegis case has access from the back of the tablet with a fold out rubber door. It is a very rugged case.

The Mini Suit case works well for this. No modification needed
It came with a screen protector too. Cant argue with this protection for the price.

Looks good. Does it have a hole for the mic?

Had this for my XDA Orbit, but...
Hi,
i had this thing for my XDA Orbit I - its protection is ok and very tough as it is made form metal. BUT also it weakens the GPS signal reception!
Apart from that it is ok.
Cheers.
For the touch screen display... do you need to remove the cover to use it, or can the HD still recognize your finger thru the front cover of the case (with the cover closed)?
If not, can you remove that part?
Thanks.
The case has a (hard)plastic cover so of course you can't use the touchscreen if the case is closed. You can still answer a cal with the "buttons".

Thanks for the reply, and for the great pics (they really illustrate the case)...
Can the clear plastic piece be removed, and just the metal shell used? If so, would it be a waste to do so, or do you think the metal shell would be good protection still? (I already have Invisible Shield on the front of my phone). I currently use one of the silicone shells, but really want a belt clip.
Thanks again!!
can we use it if the devica have full body zagg?

It can be removed but it I think it will weaken the strength or sturdiness of the case.

Smart Cover type case?

Coming from an iPad2, the only thing i miss was my smart cover. Allowed protection without adding bulk.
I know it wouldnt work quite the same but I saw something similar for a Galaxy tab. It has a thin (metal/plastic?) backplate to hold the front piece. Perhaps it could be magnetic where the two ends meet to keep it closed.
Anything like this already available?

The closest there is right now is the Asus case, its a sleeve with a standing back but its the thinnest I've seen.

Sikai case ordered from eBay. Like original iPad cover but with some smart cover like foldin fir different viewing angles.
+1 for this. I m hoping that something like this comes out soon too!!!!
They should just make something with a hard back and 4 little lips that go over the corners with a hinge on one side for the flap with magnets.
Seems very easy to make.

Cheers for that, just what I've been looking for. Ordered one.
Reports that the Sikai magnets screw with the digital compass used for google maps and such.
Kinda iffy now. I also don't want black. I'd like white or some bright color.
difficult to developing a smart cover case for TF101.
Couldn't the Samsung one fit the TF? Aren't they the same size?
Right now I have a casecrown portfolio case, but I would like to see something like a smartcover (rather Samsung's version of smart cover where you have all round protection including the back.
For those who haven't seen the samsung's smartcover ripoff, here it is:

No they are not, all android tablets out there have different sizes. Screen size doesn't matter much when you are looking for a case with a perfect fit.

New BoxWave Case

Just did a quick search for a new case. This caught my attention and thought I'd share. Going to order this when I get back from Hawaii.

Sickest case I've seen for this phone yet
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using Tapatalk 2
I have a case very similar to this one, and am very happy with it. The only difference I can see between mine and this one is around the camera and flash, mine is more open showing the trim around them where this one is just open around the lens and flash. the back is a hard plastic, and the sides are the TPU material. It fits VERY well.
Is it a BoxWave? Early BoxWave Amaze Cases didn't appeal to me. This one is well built/molded. Can't wait to get back from vacation so I can get this.
Plus I think this case would look really nice with my white cover.

What case do you have and where did you get it? I just got a good deal on a d30 band for my amaze, but it is literally the worst case I've ever used. NONE of the buttons on the case work and it slips off the edge of the phone.

This is the one I have. There are a couple of different colors on eBay from the same seller as well, including one with a smoke colored back with the black TPU sides.

Body Glove Drop Suit Case

Just wanted to throw out there that this case fits well and seems to be pretty high quality. I like the extra grip on the sides and it isn't bulky. It's a thin cases about like a tpu or silicone, but made from stiffer material, snaps on pretty snuggly. Anyway, with the very small selection out there, just wanted to mention that this case is decent if you want something small and it does still work on the wireless charger.
I got mine at Amazon because it was cheaper $15-$16 and had free shipping. But their picture doesn't offer much detail.

Thanks for the quick review. I just hesitantly ordered one off ebay, but after this and a quick YT video about it, I feel a little better about it.

It does leave a mark. The button on top makes it very easy press the power/lock key, but on the whole makes it easier to press all the external buttons.
This case is excellent. Makes buttons EASY and has nice lip for screen. Very good protection and doesn't add much mass . Seriously I'm very happy....and surprised

case fits and feels great. Only two gripes are as mentioned above the case does leave marks and when texting in landscape mode I tend to hit the power button accidently pretty often. May be just how I place my hands but I find myself hitting it alot

Fosmon DURA-FROST TPU Case - Review

EDIT: Updated with pics of it installed now that my phone has arrived.
I'm not a huge fan of cases that add bulk to the phone. Over the course of the past 2 years I have grown fond of TPU cases as they protect all edges/sides of the phone while also not turning the phone into a brick. With the G3, I once again went on the hunt for a solid TPU case that didn't have the cutout on the top left of the phone for the expandable antenna that is not found on the U.S. version.
After doing some searching, I narrowed it down to a few different TPU cases but in the end the Fosmon TPU case seemed to be the best option. It's very cheap at only $5.97 with tax + free shipping, doesn't have the cutout on the top left, and has all the appropriate cutouts. I was surprised/happy to see that the back of the case is flat black while the sides are gloss (I missed this in the product description). It makes for a great look.
It arrived today and as I suspected, it fits perfectly. The cutouts are perfect and it's a nice tight fit all the way around. So if you are like me and enjoy the minimal protection TPU cases provide, I don't think you'll be disappointed with this case.
** I also installed a Spigen Tempered Glass screen protector as well (seen in the pictures). The case fits perfectly with the screen protector as well.
