I'm highly considering getting one as my primary phone, and I was originally considering the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, but it being able to (barely) fit in my pockets seems to be the only advantage over the 7.7.
However, since I can't fit it in my pocket, a good bag would be necessary (I'd use a Bluetooth headset and a Bluetooth watch to handle calls/texts). I can't seem to find a decent one that would provide easy access to the 7.7 without being too flimsy/unprotective or too large/bulky. Being able to fit the official 7.7 keyboard dock without adding too much bulk to the bag would be a nice plus, although certainly not necessary. It's kinda disappointing that Samsung doesn't have an official one (at least AFAIK), let alone having partnered with some company to provide one.
If all else fails, I'll try and track down a Chrome Minimalist bag (or see if my local Chrome store would be willing to custom-make one), since the faux-fur lining on the inside and high-quality bag strap are both nice features, even if it'd be a little big for the tablet.
Go look at a good womans purse store. Thats ware my woman got one for me. I looked all over the place and couldent find a good one and she found a real nice leather one with acc. pockets and it is realy well built.

Not that it's a bad idea, but I'm looking for something a bit more professional-looking, and something with a strap comfortable/big enough to go across my chest like a messenger bag.
I've seen some sling-type camera bags that are just the right size and don't look too sporty. Try some camera sites like Adorama.
I have a bag that i bought during my days using the Samsung Q1U UMPC that I still use that was originally made for portable gaming systems like the PSP. It looks like a little backpack, though.
I can recommend this to you:
http://www.eastpak.com/uk-en/shoulderbags/the-one-black.html
It fits the tab perfectly and still leaves room for accessoires, your keys and stuff. Also you can choose from various colors or even leather.

They seem like nice bags...but unfortunately it doesn't seem like they're available to be shipped to the US (should have mentioned that detail) =/
This is the bag that I use. Was given to me as a gift from some family friends over in Italy. It's the perfect size for the 7.7, and is very useful.

my wife gave me this very nice leather man purse on my birthday, to save me from heart attack due to my forgetfulness
http://www.danier.com/leather-pre-winter-mens-sale-styles-254010026-P5330.aspx?lang=en
Fits the 7.7 very well at front pocket, 10.1 at the main pocket and 8.9 at the back pocket.
More than 10 pockets in total to put in your cables, memory cards, card readers, external battery pack, a swiss army knife, pen, cleaning cloth, adapters, chargers and etc

It certainly does look nice, but not to sound picky (and I know this will sound picky anyway), but I'm not a fan of leather, and I certainly don't need that much space (one tablet alone is enough =P).
Isn't the tab too big as a phone...

STM Bags
I use this one, an STM Alley Small bag, it's really for a macbook 13" but the end result is the Gtab only takes uphalf the compartment so there is room for some other stuff. STM also makes various smaller bags; I've had 2 STM bags, and they are solid and well built.
http://www.stmbags.com/catalog/laptop-shoulder-bags/alley-small-laptop-shoulder-bag/
I understand that this tread is not active anymore but thought I could share this carry case that I bought for about $20.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003FMU320/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00
It's used to carry my mobile phone, charger and 7.7" tablet or my HP Touchpad. I like the style, padding and it's well made.
Since we already have the Ipad Mini which is essentially the same size as out Tab 7.7 I'm also hunting for a leather slip-in pouch made for the Ipad. So far my trips to the shops are unfruitful, at least I saw a lot of Neoprene ones.
Related
As my attempt to organize a group buy was closed I might try the tegratab forum to start one there.
The case is still in the mail but I hope to have it soon.
I will post pictures of the original dock later today because I have to run out for a bit. The dock I hope will be in the mail soon but as I mentioned before.. it's expensive.
Here are the pictures of the official malata dock.
Sorry, forgot to post them yesterday.
I like the looks of the dock. What types of connections does it have on he back?
it's the same connections as the copy version on taobao.
1 x ethernet (10/100)
1 x HDMI 1.2
1 x USB
1 x Power
I hope to have more info on this soon.
looks nice....i am about to buy the tab from Sears, would love to know the price of the dock, is this the official dock ? how much did it cost and from where?
It's the official malata zpad dock but I don't have it yet. Unfortunately the pricing is like $65 so I don't know if I will order it because that's a but on the high side for me too.
The sample case will be arriving Thursday (Dec 2nd) if customs doesn't slow it down any more.
I'm sorry..
Sorry my friend, maybe my mistakes Caused your post has been closed.
You will be get the sample tomorrow?please give me a
information.
The case was just delivered but UPS!
All the work has paid off!! It's a perfect fit for the g-tablet.
Will get some pictures online tonight and start a group buy at a different place.
Here are the pictures with the g-tablet in the case.
Case is made out of real leather (smells better then chemicals) and the inside is a soft suede to protect the tablet.
The viewing angle works perfect for me and when I am looking at the screen I don't have any problems with the bad viewing angles of the g-tablet which is a big plus.
It's very sturdy and even sitting it on books or an uneven surface won't make it tip over.

Is there a version of this without that click flap/strap thing? I'm looking for something really simple like the apple made one for the ipad which is similar in design but doesn't have that clumsy clasp thing. Thanks.
If you want one without the strap then I think that would be possible yes.
It's a fairly custom product.
I'd also prefer without the clasp. Since you have one, can you see whether it is easily removed or unstitched?

It's the sample..maybe have the one without click flap/strap.instead of Built-in magnets.and,the part of the standing can also be changed into scaffolding. cut into the bottom bracket from the case.
I would love to get one which is custom made for the tablet? How much is it to get it delivered in Florida/USA?
It's not allowed to sell here but send me a PM and I can give you more info.
Case looks great Agreed. Smaller clasp with magnet instead of snaps would be ideal.
How long would it take to get a batch made in such a way?
I'll arrange for one without the clasp/strap.
I would like one without the clasp/strap also
I'm curious to see what it looks like without that clasp/strap. I'm very intrigued by this case, it looks really good.
I'll try to get more info on the options and if without is actually possible.
To give my 2 cents. I wasn't crazy about the clasp either from the first pictures and that it sticks out when sitting down. Now that I actually have the case I wouldn't want it without it. It feels solid when closed and looks very nice. Everyone their own choice
I'll see what info I can get.
I'm trying to get a place together to organize the group buy so hang in there.
For more info just PM me and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible.
Thanks!
So I had this old swiss army slim vertical messenger bag that I got from target years ago for $20. It was used to lug maps, water, and camera while touring italy, but now re purposed to lug my new gtab. I also picked up an even smaller one from Ross for $9 the other day. Both have 2 large main compartments with the smaller front compartment full of little pockets, clips, and zippered areas for nicknacks. The cool thing about this new man bag is that the rear compartment is actually padded (it didn't say it was for netbooks or anything) and it fits the gtab like a glove - like it was specifically made for it...

That's a good looking bag. Not as much "man-bag-esque" as some of the other bags I've seen folks here posting. When I need a bag I've been using my Targus CityGear Netbook Bag.
On my last trip to Italy 3 years ago I got my wallet pick-pocketed while exiting a subway car in Rome. I knew the moment I stepped onto the walkway that my wallet was gone. Ended up wasting a whole day on the phone with my credit card companies to cancel the cards and to have them express ship replacements to me in Florence and then dealing with my bank to wire me cash. It sucked. That event forever tainted Italy for me. Since then I've avoided Italy like a rash and instead enjoyed the rest of western europe.
That's a good bag too. I tend to like the more vertical ones because they stick out less and you don't bump people as much in crowded situations, but you have to dig down further to get little stuff at the bottom. That sucks about loosing your stuff. We had been warned about pick pockets and used those slim necklace wallets that you wear under your shirt for money, credit cards, passports, etc and a cheap decoy wallet with monopoly money in my back pocket. I guess we looked like bums, cause no one stole it...
I've been using a Timbuk2 D-Lux Messenger bag for the last several weeks. It's a little bit pricey (about $90) but it is made in the USA, and it feels REALLY solid. On top of that, it has all kinds of cool features, like a cinch clip for the strap, so you can easily tighten the strap up so it's not constantly bouncing off your backside, and a retainer strap that goes around your side, so it stays in place on a bike. I keep my G-Tablet, some big Sennheiser can headphones (I'm an audio technician), snacks, pens, extra cables, etc. in mine.
Here's a link: (Mine is the black/grey/lime scheme)
http://www.amazon.com/Timbuk2-Strip...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1303417129&sr=1-1
Edit: Mine is the small size, which still has a decent sized main compartment. The laptop slot is where I keep the G-Tab, and there is plenty of room for it there, since it is designed for a 13" laptop.

I have the Targus bag mentioned above and I like it. It holds the G-Tab perfectly and has a second compartment for a book or papers as well as other pockets. It works well and is inexpensive. Not the most stylish though.

Where did you get the Ross $9 bag ? Can you post a link. I'm assuming that is the one that fits the Gtab like a glove?
Sorry, I don't have a link to the one at Ross. My local store just happened to have it next to a bunch of discontinued computer bags and iPad cases for $8.99
this is a better picture of it when fully stuffed, but I certainly saved a lot by rummaging through Ross...

This is what I use for my man purse:
http://www.irvsluggage.com/David-King-Distressed-Leather-Laptop-Messenger-Bag-Brown/DK-B-6111
Pricey, but I love the distressed leather look, and it's extremely sturdy.
I also have the Targus bag mentioned above, works great and lots of room for other stuff. I originally bought it for my gateway netbook, which is now for sale since I love my gTab so much
still a man-purse if I'm not a man? ... yes, I think so.
I am using a "FINATEX EXTRA SMALL - Multimedia Vertical Messenger" from Tucano, and really like it.
The padded and fuzzy-lined pocket fits the naked gtab well. (If cased, would fit fine in un-lined area.)
Very slim bag, but I can squeeze a cased kindle 2 in there also in a pinch.
Standout feature: handles earphone cord to an mp3 player extremely well.
tucanousa.com/PhotoDetails.asp?ShowDESC=N&ProductCode=BFITXS-C
Pros:
+ very slim vertical form
+ quality materials, well constructed, excellent stitching
+ earphone cord from mp3 pocket snakes up inside strap
+ I thought the $35 price was good in light of the quality & 'look'
+ available in black, coffee, or red (the red struck me as more feminine) all the same size, despite the confusing descriptions on the website.
Cons:
- smaller zippered area has only the small mp3 pocket to help organize the slim vertical space. no other pockets or loop attachments for wallet, keys, pen, etc. can be a bit awkward/snug since it's only accessible from the top.
- slim flat shape does not accommodate bulky items well. (However, the charging brick fits fine, especially if I un-clip the plug.)
This is not a 'kitchen sink' bag by any means, but is excellent for carrying the essentials... including the gtab of course!
By way of example... what's in my bag today:
1. large zippered section has room to spare: gtab, lens-cloth in pouch, (no charging brick today...)
2. small zippered section is fairly full with: wallet, 3x5"-ish moleskin notebook, cell phone (in mp3 pocket), house key, random girl-stuff
3. water bottle holder is clipped to the external loop. my giant supplemental keyring clips here too on the rare day I need to carry it.

Love the look of this! And thinking leather might be the way I want to go. Is it too big for the gtab? I want a serious man purse that fits my gtab and a few other odds and ends (phone, portable charger, hdmi cord, pens).
http://www.irvsluggage.com/David-King-Distressed-Leather-Unisex-Bag-Brown/DK-B-6452
- Wondering if this one would be big enough. Hoping to go check it out in person as this website looks to have stores in my area!
I went w/ a folio case w/ a built in stand and that $5 neoprene case that was at target or something. Folio cases are the way to go.
Man Purse for GTab
It's A Satchel!
I have an old bag that used to hold a now non-functional cordless screwdriver case that fits the Gtab well. Not nearly as nice as some of those listed here but the price was right and it does the job. It is certainly "manly" enough with the "Black and Decker" logo emblazened on the side. Haha.
Man Purse, LOL.
amazon.com/gp/product/B0014LTYQK
Just got this for an upcoming trip. Fits the GTab like a glove. Handy side pocket works great for my G2.
I've loved this topic. I ended up getting the Swissgear bag with a sling type strap from Target. It fits the Gtab perfectly. I'm using it as a purse (I'm not a man) and on days I want to take the tab with me, I just slide it in the back zippered pocket and take it on the go,
What do u guys think of these? Anyone own either of these?

I wanted an EVA case yet not too huge/heavy. The strap/handle seems flexible so it can securely "sling" for a bike/skate trip, but also carry like a briefcase.
I also like the added room (sunglasses, wallet, possibly charger).
I'll give a review once I get it and have some hands on experience.

I've seen the CaseCrown up close and personal. My buddy bought it for his Galaxy Tab 10.1. Nice case, well designed and constructed. For the price I think you'll be happy.
I've got the Targus case and love it. It's got 2 compartments so it'll fit both the tablet and dock separately or together.
Timbuk2 Quickie Carry Bag- real nice!
Picked up one of these (Size Small) from amazon and it is real nice as a small tablet bag for the Prime, with full shoulder strap. A little pricey, but Highly recommended. Great build construction with lifetime warranty to protect the prime, and 2 side pockets for the charger and phone. It's smaller than it looks in the picture- just a little larger than the tablet itself
Insulated very well inside with well constructed bubble membrane foam, to protect the tablet from vibrations.
My Prime has a leather case and it fits great inside this bag !!! A nice compromise between a sleeve and a full size laptop bag, with still a good amount of room for charger and cable! I think the Prime with the Keyboard dock should fit nicely too!

Hey people,
Been trying to get a sleek waist/hip/thigh pouch to put my SGT 7.7 and some other small stuff (wallet, p&s camera etc).
Been carrying my Timbuk2 Messenger but it is really quite big and uncomfortable.
Any one has any recommendation for a waist/hip/thigh pouch that works?
My SGT is already in a ROCK case, but if the pouch has a seperate compartment (like the Timbuk2) to store the SGT, that would be great!

Something like the above two examples but don't know how it fits...
This is what I'm using. Got it as a gift from some family in Italy. More of a man-purse than a hip pouch, but I love it anyway. Wonderful construction and quality, though there are some metal logo's on the inside, so I keep my 7.7 inside of a microfiber protective sheath while inside the whole bag itself. Other than that, it's the perfect size for the 7.7, and there's plenty of room for other stuff like wallet and accessories.

exactly what i need, since i use my tablet as a phone. people would look when i make calls with it but i don't care hahaha, its great!
with complete frsutration in no keyboard case looking to ever be made for my purchase of the top tablet at the time the Galaxy Pro i have ended my search and somewhat happy.
my first purchase after exhausting months of hoping and searching led me purchase the M-Edge Stealth which upon setting up was the most impressive 3rd party universal i had ever seen. i see no reason to go into all the details that had me loving this case because very quickly i discovered it had 1 flaw that completely killed it. one of the greatest features was t he magnet safe strap and the base was magnet as well and sadly this caused the Pro to go to sleep every time i would touch it. if you push it up in the holsters it was fine but touching it or moving it and it would slide down just a hair and that hair caused the magnets to put it to sleep. i spent some time since it was such a great case trying to make it work but with much sadness i had to return it.
my next purchase and what i am staying with is the Kensington Keyfolio Pro 2 and at this pricxe i can live with the few things i would change.
quick review:
- keyboard types nice and almost all the keys for Home , Settings, Volume, Web, Music, work and go to the app i desired. it also seems to autoconnect after casing it up and opening it back up again so functionaly it is very nice
- case sadly is not a nice leather feel like the M-Edge and although not bad it feels kinda like it might carck eventually like cheap fake leather can do but only time will tell
- it is in no way as thin as the M-Edge and much bulkier than he 11" laptop i would carry but not ridiculous to me
- it has large and small corners with velcro to allow to place it wherever on the back plate that holds it which is different put nice and allows some positioning to what you like. i will say though that i was going with the small angles anyway but the large were on it and one ripped as i tried to take it off and so i know now how to handle them.
- the Logitech or Zagg of my dreams would not have allowed me to take the keyboard out and place it where i like and i see the value in this now as well
- there is no camera hole on the back put it does state that you can cut it out and they thought of this but since i dont use the back camera for anything i dont mind
anyway hope this helps out another 10.1 like me that has been frustrated with no top of the line model available.

Moko has a keyboard case on Amazon. I bought their book cover case and it is very nice.

yeah i looked at one of those but what i dont like about it:
- the kickstand - this limits position placement where the Kensington allows from straight up with keyboard in case to almost flat and stays in any position between them
- the full edge holster - i like to see the tablet with minimum corners or preferably which only comes with ones made specifically for the tablet that it snaps into place with almost no edge
- the keyboard is large with the big palm area and it does not have all the Android specific keys to launch everything which allows me to rarely touch my screen
i am not saying it isnt nice but it wasnt what i was looking for and i doubt there is an option out there i didnt research. thanks for the info though and maybe its something others might like
Samsung has neglected the Tab Pro 10.1
Its these disappointing products that brought me to just buy a stand alone keyboard option. After almost a year of traveling around the country with my Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1, throwing it in my backpack between classes, and carrying it around to camping trips and etc. I've decided that its a little too late to purchase a case or keyboard folio at this point.
Samsung really did their customers wrong by not producing a suitable keyboard/case for the galaxy tab pro 10.1. At the very list they could have worked with 3rd parties to produce these options.
