I have one right now... but it's a cheap one from Ebay. When I first bought it, it fit real nice and tight but now over a month or two it's getting loose and slides around a bit.
Anyone have any suggestions? I'm looking for the following:
1. It doesn't expose the metal part of the camera on the back cover.
2. Fits snug on the phone indefinitely (is this possible?).
... and if possible one that isn't really sticky.
Thanks!
Silicon case!
I was bought one silicon case on HTC STORE http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=176956 and is great. Cost 20$.
hi, i have a clear one of these, think i would buy the grey next time. its also a cheap ebay item. its very snug, not as flexible (which makes removal a bit of an effort) and nowhere near as sticky as some silicon cases.

hope this helps
Yeah i bought one of those that bl1nky recommended. The only thing i can say is that the fit around the bezel edge is not as good as other 'softer' silicon covers.
In my case particularly, the right hand edge is badly formed and seems to pull away from the HD bezel.
In addition i find that locating and using the power switch to be troublesome and it's this that i find most annoying.
My personal quest for the perfect case continues....
Thanks for the suggestions... I'm also in the search of a perfect case. You wouldn't think it would be this hard!
I am using this from boxwave. The fit is nice and not sticky. I went with the clear one.

They look the same from what I can tell in the pictures... but you never know on Ebay it could be a cheaper knock-off of the original. I don't know because I haven't purchased the one from Ebay. I will be getting mine today or tomorrow from Boxwave and I'll take some pics of it and stuff and update here.
Is it the non-transparent one with small camera hole? (I'm in the boarding shcool where ebay is locked) If so, it's good, but rather thick, good for protection, but will make your HD thicker (around 16mm). If not, just remove this post.

Ok so I got the case and have been using it for two days now. It is pretty damn nice actually. It fits well, not too tight and not too loose either. It's not sticky like the cheap Ebay one I have so I can easily slide it in and out of my pocket. I got the smoke color. It's clear and shiny so it suits the HD well. I like being able to see the phone through the case as well.
can try this silicon case from Capdase
CW any pics mate ??
i got the silicon case from ebay and its not a tight fit.come off very easily. am now on the hunt for another case. there is a case for the iphone which is a plastic case but a rubberised finish.

cheers CW looks good, next question, do you use a car holder of any sorts ?
If so hows the fit ?
Im reading here about many cqses but I just cant find the best. I need a case that lets every port open, looks nice , has multyangles and that it doesnt cost a lot. I need it as soon as posible becuse my tablet is hlme and its really hard to hold it for 3 hours in my hands Thank you.

Still wanting on a general consensus as well...I guess the "official case isn't getting good reviews...
Thank you all on your suggestions -.-. Anyway I think I will go fora microfibre case from amazon.
Here's a nice leather one for $19.95
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110709890057&hlp=false
IMO - Check out the rooCASE on Amazon if you want a multi-angle style. From what I can tell, it is the "Best" in terms of quality. There are a few other multi-angle cases out there such as what you find on eBay but they do not appear to be made as well. JMO but the ACase for example just looks really cheap in comparison.
I've ordered the roo case as well but it's taking foooooooorever to get here.
I think you might like this one. It has a lot of space, and it can actually detach if you don't want to hold on to the whole case while using it. This company gave me a free stylus since I ordered one of their cases. I love the black but if you want another color, then I think they have a brown too.
Hope this helps.

How do you like the Amazon case you linked to? I have been considering that exact one. What is your opinion? How sturdy is it? Is the rotary/detach option really useful? Debating between this an a standard leather case because seems more durable/protective but doesn't offer rotary feature or detaching case...
Thanks.

Thanks for that recommendation. Looks like it kinda gives you a tablet sleeve too, built in.
I don't use portrait mode very much, but the ability to detach is a huge plus. Is it possible to fold the flap all the way back, so you have the case still attached, but use the tablet as a handheld?
From the picture, it looks like it attaches to the case via a button...is that secure? I've seen others that use two velcro disks...those seem more secure.
I just purchased that one last night. I'll come back and share my thoughts once I receive it around early next week.
Edit: I got the brown one

They were available on eBay before the P6800 were even officially released. I got one and it fits very well, but using the Samsung book case now.
There is lot of them there for very cheap:

At the time I got my tab, there weren't many cases available. I ordered my case from:

Can probably find it cheaper now. Maybe check eBay too.
still waiting nice looking and high quality case，hope some good design coming soon

I found one today while looking for the same thing myself. Can't post links due to be a new site member, but if you look up on ebay the user 'freebitsuk' you'll be able to get to their store.
They also have it bundled with a screen protector too. Three colors available black, pink & purple.

How flexible would you say this case is? I'm deciding between this one and a silicon case myself. I'd like something more flexible than a plastic hard case, but not as floppy as silicone.
morkli,
Thanks!
I've ordered the cheaper one
Don't know how long they will take to deliver, though.

dont worry about that，quality really good. cant be break easy，and feel nice when you hold it，smooth put on face.
I have the Smasung OEM case and it works beautifully....for me I think covering the screen is more important than covering the aluminium back. The first perceived issue with the OEM case "flap" is really not an issue at all as mine has never flapped open becuase of the way it is carried. In edition, it can be positioned in either landscape or portrait mode. It is a good idea to keep the rubber grip edge on the case clean so it continues to grip any surface. This device is such a beautiful design that I find the Samsung case compliments it very well.

TPU stands for Thermoplastic Polyurethane, it's a different material from silicone.
Generally firmer and has a more rigid structure.
I find the smart cover case of my iPad 2 is ideal for typing in "landscape keyboard" mode. I haven't found any cases on eBay etc that do this except some really bulky/fugly ones. Has anyone found anything elegant/thin along the lines of the iPad 2 smart cover yet? I realize the GT7.7 doesn't have the logic to turn off when the cover is closed, I can live without that!
The original Samsung OEM case/cover looks very nice but doesn't seem to stand on its own in landscape keyboard mode

As long as the surface is not overly smooth, the Samsung Original Book Cover case does stand in landscape (thanks to rubber strips that adds friction). See pics. May not *look* especially stable, but it does seem to hold out nicely.
Ironically, I would like to see a case that allows my tab to stand in portrait mode, since I'm more likely to read that way. Never seen one before.
I have a case similar to the official iPad1 case. Very slim and snug fit. Doesn't add much to the size of the device, keeping the original slimness. Its faux leather on the outside and suede cloth inside. It has the same standing mechanism as the iPad1 case too. Comes in a few colours, I got the brown one.
I've been looking for exactly this type of case and was amazed they are made. I believe I can post images now and so I'll put some up later.

A similar one popped up on eBay last night for $25. Seller is in HK of course. What site did you find this on?
Tmall.com taobao.com
chinese webiste
that one cost RMB120
I found it at http://www.minihotsale.com/rock-sam...blet-light-cool-folio-leather-case_p1435.html
$35 shipped, not terrible. I like that it doesn't intrude on the bezel the way some of the other folios do.
Thanks cyuet for pointing me in the right direction! Will advise once received.
looks good

Thats the one. I personally prefer cases that give all round protection and this case does that. I find cases that only grip the corners can come loose over time, and badly made ones have terrible tolerances and may not even adequetly hold the device.
Thanks

I also think that a case like the smart cover for the ipad2 is ideal for the tab 7.7. I have seen those for the 10.1 and 8.9 on ebay, and I am pretty sure they will pop up for the 7.7 soon.
Nothing from Zenus or SGP yet?

UK based case for £8.99
I just received this case i bought from ebay for the bargain price of £8.99 in the UK and delivered from the UK too.
Very pleased with it! I've tried the official case but this is much better. It even has magnets on the flap to stop it flapping open when carrying.

That's basically exactly the same as the one I posted above except my link is cheaper and located in the UK (minus the screen protector but they are pence anyway)
The one I ordered also has better protection at the bottom
Case from eBay
I snagged this one as it closely resembles the one I really like for my GTab 7+. Will post up pictures when I get it.
Does any one have one of these? I have bought one that is a copy, I just wondered if a genuine one did anything with the screen?
The genuine one is five times the price, is it worth the extra money?
It offers good side protection, you could take pictures without opening the flip, answer the phone,change music tracks etc. It's useful
I'm not fond of flip case but the S view seems good.
I had the occasion to try the S5 version and it was great. But you loose the look of the Alpha like other flip cover or case.
I saw a lot of copy 3 times cheaper than the original and they seem good.
Maybe someone has one, it can be great to have some feedback.
anyone have a pic of the side of the original case and fake case ? i want to see how well it protect the sides
