Yeah, I have the Reventon Yellow and I enjoy it. I also purchased a Monster iCable 3.5mm audio cable as it has a slightly thinner longer jack for better fitment through the Neo's audio jack hole.
I was using the red SGP neo hybird case,too.
feeling great !!!
I like the case, but it sags in short order. the back of the case is really loose after ~ 9 months of use.

Mine is saging as well. I remember see something about returning it or sgp replacing the rubber piece, but I haven't been able to find again. I stopped using mine and have been using my phone w/o a case as a result.

Did you guys with sagging issues ever leave it in extreme heat? (In a car) or does it magically just become loose?

My sagging is from normal use/processor heat.

Same here, I did fold up a $20 & stick it in my case 'cause I didn't have my wallet. I but that was for like an hour or so
Would anyone recommend this over Acase? Or recommend any case over this? Im looking for something slim yet durable. Looks arent really a factor. Just need something slim with some drop protection. Thanks
great case before the silicon back started to stretch and sag...
2 months no sag YET

Whatever it is, it's pretty tough. I ran the tip of a knife on it, and there are no visible marks. You won't need one of those screen guards on this.

No, it may be scratch resistant, but its definitely not tough. There are plenty of report of the glass shattering when its slipped off someones lap when they are sitting.
The 7" tab has gorilla glass. The 10.1 tab does not.

I asked Samsung awhile back and was told the 10.1 is GG.
seems very hard to me. Whether it is gg or not the larger the surface the more fragile it becomes, unless you make it a lot thicker.

They told me the same thing when I contacted their customer support. I'm going to take their word over others that are saying it's not.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
It very definitely might be.
Yeah, its hard to say for sure... I'm leaning towards a similar compound to GG, but in a thinner, more brittle application so as to preserve thinness. Its like the iPhone, the screen isn't "Gorilla Glass" but its made in the same factory

I can't get the links to open. Yes, I'm sure. I asked them 2 separate times, and both times their response was yes.
I've seen a few videos on the web of people doing the scratch test on the 10.1v. It passed.
I can only assume they kept the same glass for the 10.1, but made other modifications.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
There are videos on YouTube showing keys not scratching the GT10.1... If it's not Gorilla Glass it seems to be just as strong.
From Corning's website:
Samsung: Behold II, Captivate, Continuum, Corby S3650, Corby W900, Epic 4G, Fascinate, Flight II, Focus, Galaxy A, Galaxy Ace, Galaxy S, GALAXY S II, Galaxy S 4G, Galaxy Tab, Lindy, Mesmerize, Monte, Monte Preston, Omnia HD, S8500 WAVE, Showcase, Trance, Transform, Ultra TOUCH S8300, Vibrant, Wave II
it's pretty frustrating when the product manufacturer says one thing
and a component vendor states the opposite ....

I agree. There are tons of "gorilla glass test" videos on Youtube. Whatever it is, it's very strong. I wouldn't worry too much. I'd still recommend getting a screen protector though. Easier to clean fingerprints.

I snapped my battery door in half and I've been searching high and low for an OEM replacement with no luck. The only place I've been able to find one is on eBay. The only problem with that is I don't have an eBay account and I definitely don't want to open a paypal account just to buy a battery door. If anybody knows where I can get obe, I would greatly appreciate it. At the moment, I'm usong an aftermarket door I purchased from Amazon. The problem with that, is it adds a slight amount of thickness to the phone, and most cases won't fit properly bwcause of this.

Unfortunately, that's probably what you'll have to do. It's not that hard, and doesn't hurt to have one. I rarely use mine, but it's nice to have when I find something that I want that is only on eBay.

Just ask your local authorized reseller for the one of a dummy phone, a corp store will definitely say no. I have an OEM backup and a metal one coming USPS. If you don't acquire one in a few days, I'll have one for you.

You could always just buy an official SAMSUNG folio case and cut off the leather flap. The replacement backs that come on these are thicker and stronger anyways.... Just a thought.

There are a few problems with that.
1) international note tabs are larger and therefore will require modification to work
2) no NFC. Sure, it's disabled now, but soon it will be available for use.
3) Does not look the same. It says Samsung, not Galaxy Note. That's more personal preference.

The same for me
Held both in my hand, decided which would be less ridiculous holding to my ear at work - bought the S3. Larger screen would have been kinder on the eyes but harder on the ego.
S3 fits in my hand and in my pocket. Note 2 does not. I don't make use of the S Pen, so easy decision
The S3 is more "user friendly"
