Not a dock, or a charger, just a cheap little stand for the desk or the table to prop the N3 up hands free.
Why can I find one? What are you guys using?
My favourite hobby always is to build them with whatever I find on my desk with sticky tape... (I know that's not much help).
There's a great thread on here (which I can't find at the moment, it would have been on the HD2 threads two years ago), about how a few small cuts to a credit card make a great portable stand.
Like this image, but there's much better versions on here somewhere.

60 peeps have viewed this thread and only one of them has ever wanted to prop their phone up in landscape to watch something?
I find that hard to believe, with such a nice screen :crying:

I got a couple of these. Took a bit to get and when they showed up I forgot I had ordered them (a few minutes trying to figure out what they were).
Very light, collapse, carry one in my tablet case. Use them all the time to read, watch etc.. in both landscape and portrait mode.

^^^ that. Its pretty nifty. Wish there was a heavier duty version in plastic or metal though. And wish the arms folded out closer so it will hold my note3 in portrait mode. Only works in landscape. I use a straw or flat chopstick to hold in portrait.

Standard business card holder. Holds the phone in landscape perfectly and you can still connect the power and stereo cords.

It looks like you could put a Qi charger on that, or maybe fasten it to the back of the mesh, then you'd have a wireless charging stand.

I have a couple questions.
I'm painted my phone,controller, console, computer case, etc. Are you using just raddle cans or an actual air brush?
Also, how can you stand the painted feeling!?. lol I like the look, but have never liked the feeling that a painted item gives in my hand.
Also, is that an oven I see the battery door in? I use a hair dryer, but, ...if so that is a much better idea! how did you get it hanging in there? doesn't your food taste funny now?
Now thats clean, it turned out amazing!

Ok in order:
Rattle cans... I think I have a good technique down I've been spraying since I was 12... I consider myself a graffiti artist of sorts... Specifically Krylon fusion. Bonds well.
I noticed theres a perfect amount of clear coat you have to get right so it doest feel painted. the case feel really like a fresh painted car.
You are correct, that is a Chefmate Toaster Oven. The picture is actually sideways it's really just laying down lol... I usually let it air out after a job and the food tastes fine after you get over the lead taste (just kidding).

I think it may have to do with the flash on my phone too... 3DEVO's have been known to give off a bluish to greenish tinge when using flash in the dark...
I've already gone through 3 different desk docks for the Note so I thought I'd let everyone in on what I've found.
I ordered this dock from Amazon when I preordered the phone amazon.com/GSI-Quality-Desktop-Charger-Data-Sync/dp/B006L9K0P4/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1330122195&sr=8-5
DO NOT GET THIS DOCK, unless you want a night light or to be blinded all day at your desk. The 2 LEDs on the top ends are always on and super bright. Also no landscape or audio out.
On Friday when I got the phone I went to AT&T and bought their desk dock (the small portrait one in the attached pics).
It works just fine, if you have a super slim case you might be able to leave it on while in the dock, it also has a preamp audio out if you want to connect to a stereo.
I just got this dock amazon.com/Hyperion-Samsung-Battery-Compatible-Packaging/dp/B006QBKTCG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1330122195&sr=8-2 in the mail from Amazon and I think its what I've been looking for.
It won't hold your phone if you have a case on it and there is no audio out, but it will do portrait and landscape. There are no LEDs, it will charge a second battery, and it can do charging and connecting to your computer.
I also really like the snug fit and the cutouts for the volume rocker and speaker, depending on if you are in portrait or landscape.
Anyways just wanted to throw in my .02c and maybe help someone else make a decision on what dock to get. If you have any questions or want to see any other pics let me know.
I have the 2nd dock you have listed, got it from spiderfoot. It does have a tiny led that is very dim when charging the extra battery.
I'm really happy with it I just wish that my phone fit with the case on. Im thinking of modifying it slightly with a dremel

Hey, thanks for the mini review. Can you toss the phone in the 3rd dock and shoot some pix? I would like to see it in landscape mode.
Thanks
On the first dock, does it fit with a case on? I have the speck case, and I hope that it'll fit.

I just got that first dock in the mail today. I don't have a case but the fit is tight. I really doubt it will work with a case. So open carefully in case you need to return.
As far as the LED light, nothing a piece of electrical tape couldn't fix. Pretty good deal for 15 bucks and prime shipping in one day!
Edit: Looking again there is some daylight between the phone and the dock. A really thin case might fit!
Staying hopeful! The speck is pretty thin, but it's kind of hard, so I'm not sure if there's much room for play with it. I purchased one yesterday, and for $15, I can live with taking the case off every so often

I use the Samsung oem dock pictured in the first post and it works with the flip case on it. I don't have any other cases yet, so I haven't been able to try it with anything else.
It is almost impossible to use any of the really protective cases with a dock, is my conclusion. I am sick of taking my dremel to $30 cases. Excuse the rant.

I ordered the same dock from Spiderfoot a couple weeks ago without checking out the forums first. It should be here this week. I also have an Anymode bumper case coming in this week so I'll need to modify the dock to fit it.
Have you modified your dock yet? If so, do you have any pointers before I start cutting into it? I realize it's not rocket science but sometimes after you get done with a small project you realize you should've went about it in a different way.

Hmm... I'm trying to figure out how the cover works. Looks like that textured plastic piece around the camera either comes out and the cover replaces it or it attaches ontop of it somehow. Looks clunky.
This whole thing reeks of lawyer design.
But red cover in the video seems good for me.

For me too.
Looks like it just snaps in a groove near the edge.I think it would have to come off and can't be folded around to the back like a case cover.With the rounded back folding it around would not work well anyway.Works for me however since I only need it when putting the tablet away.I bet it comes with the tablet and does not have to be bought separately so that will be good too. jmo
I hope it's for sale on Amazon. I have a huge credit there from returning my TF700.

They leave the camera unprotected because when your using the tablet you will have the cover folded back... The most common time for you to use the camera is when you are using the tablet... Therefore they must leave it uncovered to take pictures while using the tablet
It is a screen protector not a protective case

haha I thought it can't be folded back. just slide off and on. But yeah it makes sense that it should be able to fold back. But still, why didn't it protect the whole screen?

I posted a link to protective cases on the accessories forum
The big question is if the case will act as a stand for viewing. I like that it's minimalism but realistically the only thing I care about in a case is if it props it up for viewing.

Looking at the gap in the middle, it would allow you to take pictures when it is folded back. I don't see why it wouldn't fold that way.
The reason they have the weird attachment is to avoid Apples patent on its smart cover. Genius IMO

Agreed. I have $450 credit just waiting to buy this at Amazon. I tried asking them about it and their customer support was so clueless they didn't even know how to ask.
Hi all, wouldn't normally post a review of something like this, but I think this is a particularly nice case for the TF300 (tablet only).
Cooler Master are a great manufacturer of mainly PC parts, and when I noticed this on a non-english language site in a review it got me interested.
After a bit of googling, I found it on the Cooler Master Mobile EU site, and it was priced at a whopping €39.99 with €10 delivery! (it worked out at about £45).
Anyway, its available in Silver and Blue (but the blue looks black to me) and I went for the silver.
It is very much like an Apple (boo, hiss) smart cover except that there is no automatic sleep with the TF300. It has a strong magnetic closing, and I would be confident it wouldn't flap open in my bag. It doesn't add too much bulk to the tablet, and feels nice and sturdy. The flap cover feels like it will last a while, and it lets you place it in a couple of useful positions.
With the cover in place and closed, for whatever reason it feels great. I would seriously just walk around with the tablet in the case because of how nice it feels to hold. Really nice and tactile feel with the textured fibre finish, and soft touch plastic.
It is tablet only, but it pops out easy enough to attach to the dock.
I've attached some pics (sorry about quality, light wasn't great in my room), which show off the really nice finish and the carbon fibre texture of this. It is definitely a premium product, and I am happy to use this day to day.

Oh my god it's beautiful! Too bad it's very expensive for me. I would be way too expensive, with shipping to Turkey. Thanks for the review
Nice case :thumbup:
Sent from my magic machine and written by my pet monkey who likes bananas and cream.
It's nice to see some cases for the tablet that are geared to non-dock users.
That is a gorgeous case.
You can order one from the Cooler Master website and ship to the US...but it'll cost you about $125 USD

Holy moly! I like the case but not that much. That's outrageous.

the CS of Cooler Master EU store is quite bad, sent email to them on friday but no reply until today, 3-4 days...acceptable? i dun think so
The item number for the silver and blue covers are:
C-AT3F-CTTF-BB (Dark Blue)
C-AT3F-CTTF-SS (Silver White)
With these I was able to find a local retailer for about €40 Euro or $53 USD with free shipping
Wow. That looks good. The problem is you will need to take it out of the case in order to dock it on the keyboard wouldn't you. Or is there some way to do that without removing it all?

I'm pretty sure this case isn't dock compatible and will need to be removed in order to attach the dock.

So am I. The annoying thing is that it easy to achieve with right shape/size cut out along the bottom (hinged) edge. I know because I took one of these from Amazon and cut it out with a craft knife. Not too bad as you can see from my review at that link, but still a bit more bulky and not as pretty as this one. I am not sure if you could do the cut out with this case, but I would not want to at £45, as opposed to the less than £10 I spent

Absolutely. This case is definitely not inexpensive. Still, it is one of the best looking I've seen for our tablet.

Actually having looked at the pictures on the Master Cooler website I wonder whether it may be usable with a dock. It appears that the bottom hinge of the front flap starts a a little way up the back rather than right at the bottom. Depending upon how far up it may be possible to still slip the dock on without removing the case. It only needs about 13mm or so from my experience with the cut out on my other case.
Could I ask the OP or anybody else to have a look please and see how far up the hinge does start. Or even better if they have a keyboard dock does it enable it to be used without removing the case??? If so I think I see some more money being spent!
Hmmm... if you don't get an answer in here you can always write the manufacturer.:good:

I just tired it and its doable but requites a bit of wiggling.
The back of the dock is a bit hard to press in between the tablet and the cover but it can be done.
Here is a few pictures:

Looks nice! But I would prefer one covers the LCD area too, more safe

LCD area? Can't you use a screen protector?

too bad they don't ship internationally
You may need Otterbox case for covering the LCD.

Hahaha~~ I no need to bring Note 3 when swimming
The Black/Black case regularly drops down to 1.77$ at night!!! Just a heads up!!!
I assume the two protrusions on the back are to protect the camera when laying the phone down with its screen up?
Nice. anyone actually got/tried one out yet ?

Also wondering what shipping time is like on the black one for anyone that has ordered it. Trying to decide between this and cancelling my neo hybrid order. I like the idea of a lanyard slot and this one looks a bit more protective

I ordered mine last Monday and chose the basic shipping and even though it said it wouldnt be here until late next week, it actually went out for delivery today!
Mine showed up today, woudl've got on earlier, but I've been playing the BF4 Beta all day Lol
I had to try different dhl sites for the tracking number to work, I think I searched "dhl global" into google.
I bought this before I was sure that I would buy an N3, and if I did I had something cheap to use right away. I also wanted to see how big it felt in my hands, case and all. (pocket too)
First thoughts:
Looks like it's well designed (or at least the mold for making it was).
It feels fairly thin to medium in the sense that it's not too thick, but not so thin it's too thin to provide protection.
I thought it was 2 seperate pieces, it's one piece, the back being hard and the sides being soft.
I would say that the back is about the thickness of 2 credit cards and the side is about 1 card thick.
Sorry I havent bought the phone yet, or else I would provide pics of it in the case.
I'm glad I bought this and well worth the under $10 shipped price tag.
Color affects the price btw, I think the clear ones were more expensive.
I may cut slots near the finger grips to provide more traction. I have a large case for my s2 that had a kickstand that broke out and left a rectangular hole in the center, it allows me to grab it with my finger tips and stretch my thumb all the way across the screen, without tilting my phone to let gravity keep it in my hand, which would cause the screen to rotate.
Plus the holes will help keep the battery cooler, a bit more important in the desert.
I just got it today, and got to say is pretty nice for the price, don't know why the pics show the name on the case but mine don't have it. Which I thought it would when I ordered it. No biggie.

Same. I'm rocking it until my Neo Hybrid gets here. It's not bad. I only paid $3.99 for it so that help me like it more.

Lol I'm waiting on the slim armor and paid 6 bucks for this one on the time being. I'm just glad I have a case that fits, I had it in my trident case for my note 1 the last two days, and it barely fit and none of the holes matched.

Purchased the black case a couple of days ago. Got it for ten bucks on amazon.
