What You Think ? its thin protects the all sides including corners has magnetic closure and almost half the price of the cheap Samsung case that has no drop protection at all.

opps i guess i should have rotated some of them, the phone slides in and there is a flap that tucks around and under the phone for added protection and it holds it in. No double sided tape
see pic
Looks good!
So its pretty thin then? I wont have any issues sliding it in my pants pocket?
I find the Note very pocketable for me and I just wanna make sure this isn't too bulky and take that away..
Also how does the flap that goes over the screen stay in place? I hear magnets arent good for the screen..
Let me know thanks..
Looks cool. Yoobao makes some nice leather cases.
Does the front flap fold flat behind the phone smoothly and slim?

The folio one looks really nice, the front looks like an iPad 2 smart cover.
Yeah, I dunno which one to get now. I have the executive one for my iPad 2 and really like it.

Mine should be here in about an hour..Ill let you know..
Case is nice and has a good build..
However the flap that covers my screen does not stay in place..Just simply turning the phone upside down and it just falls right down without even trying..
No biggy though it will last me till seidio release the holster i want.

What's the deal man? Do you own a stake in Yoobao? In any case, you have gotten your "friend" plenty of free advertising.

That case is just plain ugly. The edge of the screen is covered and that makes it hard to touch the screen near the edge. Also, if these are the same quality at the Yoobao Ipad cases, don't waste your money. They had a terrible odor to them and the inside of the front flip part got real dirty and looked terrible. Also, when you fold the case flip onto the back, it made it uncomfortable to hold in your hand.

This is probably the owner or his friend, who did the same crap on Macrumorsforum by posting multiple posts touting how great Chinao and Yoobao cases are. In fact, the owner got kicked off the forum and so did his imaginary friend.

So I bought the slim version, arrived yesterday. I'm not very happy with it. It's a good idea in concept, but my biggest complaint is that the front flap feels horribly awkward when folded around the back. It doesn't fit well and it's uncomfortable to hold the phone that way.
I emailed the seller and they won't accept a return because the packaging is open. Live and learn..

Suck man . Yeah I thought about getting one or even the Samsung flip case, but it just would feel awkward holding it with a flip.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Thought I would clarify a couple of things - the phone actually fits into the case well and snug, but it is the front flap that feels loose and awkward when folded flat against the back. You can fold the flap in half at the crease and then press it against the back, but it still doesn't have a very "clean" feel as it is loose at the "hinge" of the flap.
Also, the seller would not accept "used" merchandise, which I disclosed in my email requesting a return. Not just that the package was open. I wanted to clarify that point.

can you take some pictures of this in pieces. and show how much it makes the phone thicker? how much heavier? is it easy to get in and out of the pocket.... I was thinking about getting the neo hybrid ex but it is a little pricey in my mind.
its extreamly easy to put in and put of pocket. . I'll take a few pics later. It feels great in the hand. I had a Neo hybrid silver one the one that had the rubber backing. This case feels lighter than that one

Is the back rubbery or real "grippy".
The otterbox commuter has mostly slick plastic on the back. I would like a little more grip on the back for my preference which is why I might try this one.

I received both the Commuter and Superleggera Pro today, so I can definitely see what you mean about the plastic shell being slippery on the Commuter. I do love it, though.
The Superleggera is almost identical to the Commuter, except the plastic shell is covered in a rubbery feeling coating. It's definitely got more grip than the Commuter shell, but I wouldn't call it "real" grippy. But in comparison, yes, it's more grippy than the Commuter. My only concern is that the rubbery coating may wear off over time, but we'll only know that once we use them for a while.
The silicone inner piece is much thicker on the Superleggera, but doesn't make the phone any bigger than the Commuter (which doesn't add much bulk at all). One nice thing I noticed...where all four corners of the phone are covered only in silicone on the Commuter, with the Superleggera only one is. The shell covers the corners on the other three, so you seem to have an extra layer of protection in that area.
A darn nice case, especially for the price and fast shipping. I still prefer that built-in port covers on the Commuter, but I'll be using both for sure.
Thanks Kentucky

Just got the case. they delivered on sunday... probably the only redeeming quality of ensenda. anyways i find the sort coating on the hard plastic tp be perfect, the weight to be fairly low and the fit to be very good. the price is outstanding.
it included two screen protectors for the int'l ver. and the top mic is... not right at all. it is in the right position left right but needs to be moved towards the back of the phone. anyways ill post some individual parts pics later on.
Well I have to say, for $9.95 + free 1 day shipping, I'm VERY happy with this purchase. Just got mine and it fits perfect. Not sure about the top mic being covered though. Does that just add to the bottom to allow better pickup for speaker phone, etc.? Which I never use.
Maybe but it serves a far more important purpose. And they is noise canceling, it uses the alternate directions to distinguish white noise and your voice

I just received this case yesterday and I got to say that it is a pretty nice case if you're looking for a tough case. I've been looking for a case like the Otterbox since it appears they will not be releasing a defender series for this phone. This one is actually the opposite because they put the hard case on the outside of the silicone case. They did this so when you don't need/want the plastic part, you can still use the silicone part as a case. The metal kickstand is also a nice addition, especially since I tend to watch netflix on my phone quite a bit. It is a universal GS2 case, meaning it fits ours and the international version. It has a notch at the bottom for the international's home button, and has the hole at the top for our noise cancellation mic. You do have to work it a bit to get the plastic part over the silicone, but really that's a good thing. Also the button feel is really nice with this case. Feels better than when it's just the phone itself. They also got the phone to me quickly. I got it about 3 days after I ordered it and it came from California to South Carolina, free shipping. So if you've been wondering about this case or wanting another option for a tough case, I'd give this one a try. I love it. Oh and there are also other colors available.
dang, i was hoping this would be about the rum.
looks like a cool case, thanks for the review.

I've been looking for something since falling out of love with the Siedio Active combo, but I really dislike how the holster has that circular portion resting directly against the screen. That just can't be good for anything over the long term.
It doesn't touch the screen. There's plenty of space.

Like I said the buttons feel better than without a case. As for bulk it adds a bit, probably about as much as an otterbox defender would. It is a tough case afterall. Trident also offers other cases for our phones.

TRIDENT AMS-SGX2-BK Kraken AMS Case for Samsung Galaxy S II - 1 Pack - Retail Packaging - Black
The Kraken (AMS-SGX2) listed in Amazon for the GS2 doesnt say whether they are for the i777 but clearly look like they are for the i9100. It does say that they fit the GS1 though.
Anybody have more personal input on this case yet?
Please post pics if someone gets one on our AT&T version.
I have the green one now. It is designed to fit both. There is an antenna hole in the upper right corner in the silicone. The hole for the microphone at the top is grooved(in the silicone) in such a way that the at&t and i9100 can utilize it. Overall it is a nice case but the two halves(front & back) seem like they don't snap together tight enough. Maybe it won't be a problem but only time will tell. Also, the plastic seems to slip out of my hands more easily than a case that has more silicone.

Thanks fellas. I'm thinking about getting the Red one myself but I would like to see pics of it first, dont want it to look pinkish red
Can you post close up pictures (any color)?
I'll try to post pics if I get the chance, and I can find my camera. I use my phone for everything and haven't used a camera in ages. I have the red one and there is no pinkish to it.
For anyone that needs a case until sprint or best buy gets some in this is a solid case I got from t-mobile they also had a body glove case as well

Post copied from "cases and covers" thread:
Last night I got the only case available at the closest T-Mobile store. It's from Tech21 and cost $35, with a nice grippy texture & "D3O impact material".
Meh.
Here's a picture taken with my nexus 10 that might show the poor fit at the side of the screen.
View attachment 2303496
That extra shiny edge at the right is the silver frame/side of the Note 3.
I'll probably return it today because the sides flex too much & I'm afraid it'll screw up a screen protector.
It also makes the phone a little harder to fit in some pockets because of the combination of added bulk & drag from the texture.
I'll try to get something with a TPO inner layer and enough plastic on the outside to not drag too badly going into a pocket. That might be like looking for a unicorn since there are so few cases available right now, and almost none I can see in person.

I have same case as well. It's very slim.
I got that case too for now, it fits perfectly if you squeeze in all around as it molds to the phone a little bit and you won't see any gap afterwards. If it was clear and not smoky I would keep it, there are alternatives on Amazon for 1/3rd the price. Not that I mind spending 35 dollars for a case but not one so simple, give me a slim fit Speck or BodyGlove with a kickstand and I'm all over it and they usually go for 25 -35 dollars.

I bought one these also for TMO note 3 until they start pushing out some other choices.

OK, I returned the Tech 21 case and they showed me another that came in today. It was by Bodyglove, the same price, made of shiny black TPU. It felt good on the phone and had a good grip in the hand. The sides felt a little stiffer than the first on, EXCEPT at the buttons. Above the buttons the TPU flexed way too much. I'm pretty sure it'll rub at the edge of a screen protector, maybe enough to make the screen protector lift.
I'll just have to wait on a Slim Armor, or something else with a hard shell over a soft liner.

I ended up buying the body glove for now, and so far its pretty good, I can't wait for my UAG case to come in though.
I bought this a temporary, and it's not that great imo , as the power button is pretty hard to depress.
I also bought this as a "temporary case" and actually like it as well-- much slimmer than I thought it would be. I also like the "grippy" material on the back that doesn't slide around in my car. I had the "official" samsung case on my note 2, and that thing would fly across my car/lap/seat any time I made a turn.
Look forward to seeing other options come out though. Great job by Tech21, imo.

Hello ,
I'm having this Idea about using a metal ring bumper case along with the S-View cover from samsung, That way i would get good protection +the good feeling of both metal and leather combined (I do love the leather-ish back and the part i am most concerned about is actually the plastic chrome plated frame of the phone)
Do you have experience with metal encasement? would you think it would effect signal strength if only the side frame was covered?
PS: Thats the only metal frame I've found on Amazon

I've ordered the poetic and s line cases. the s line case for my note 2 is fine although the stand is flimsy. it only cost 5 bucks though so what are you going to do. I'm hoping the stand for the poetic holds up when you press on the screen.
That aluminum bumper looks nice, until In noticed that weird bump out on the lower left corner as seen from the front. Likely for a lanyard loop, but wow, what an awkward execution of that feature.

I zoomed in on the picture and it looks like there will be no scratch protection for the back. You can see the fake stitching, so the back must stick out enough to scratch the cover & camera whenever you lay it down.
I'd also expect the inside of these aluminum bumpers to do horrible damage to the phone, it looks like there's no protection between the phone & the aluminum.
Can someone with an aluminum bumper comment, please?

I've never cared for carrying & changing batteries, so I like the wireless charging adapters. That way there's no need to remove the back. Even if you don't worry about scratching the back cover, bumpers don't protect the camera.
There's another aluminum bumper you might like, instead of needing to remove a screw to change batteries, the frame slides apart.

wondering which color would be better for a black phone, if i get a silver one , it will almost look like the phone is without a case
What do you guys think?

Damn it. I really wish I saw this three days ago. Just bought a case with screws, but I like that this one has the ribbing around the case like our phones have on the fake metal. Seriously Damn it. Well post pictures please when you guys get them, maybe I'll order one anyway

whats the color of your phone, if its black i am waiting for the pictures, site only has pictures from a white phone ....
You might have to probably wait another month to get the cases though, they ship only after feb 7 due to Chinese new year.
Looking for bumper or slim case also. I like the metal look.
I would be a little scared that the metal may wear or damage the plastic underneath. I have only had the phone for 2 days. Anyone have issues with damage or chipped edges on these phones?
Other then that loving the phone so far.
These types of cases usually have foam or rubber on the inside to prevent such issues.

I have to say I was worried about the same thing and have had this phone without a case since it came out. I have never dropped it, never carry keys in the same pocket or anything in there and take meticulous care of this phone. I now have three places that chrome trim is chipped without ever doing anything to it, so as I see it, it can't get worse with adding a case

Just ordered it from Amazon. Under $5, you can't beat that. I ordered a gold one hoping that it looks like that other one from the other website you posted. I think they just photo shopped this gold one cause they are all the generic pictures. We'll see

Just saw that, if you pay for shipping Amazon sends it in 5 days. Free shipping I assume is the bumper coming from China with those expected dates.

Yeah doesn't matter much to me, I already ordered a different brand one earlier this week that arrives tomorrow. So I'll use that for now

I had a metal bumper and it scratched the bezel of the phone
fortunately I was able to get an exchange on extended warranty due to proximity issues, now I have a spanking new phone.
Be careful with metal bumpers

Got my "CITUS" bumper from Amazon today. Like it so much more than bumpers with screws! Love how back is cut out so charger fits good.

Best thing I have to take pics with is my Note. Let me see if I can borrow a phone and I will, lol. Give me a bit, please. I ordered it in the electric-ish blue color for black phone.

Buttons being flush on sides others may not like but personally perfect for me. Easy to feel/find in dark but not as accidentally pressed by my father fingers. Latch is on top side, works far better than anticipated really. Lovin' the blue on black. Also, bottom is cut out so charger size issues should be alleviated.
