Well it all depends on your needs and taste.
I dislike big rounded styluses so I ordered a Samsung C Pen which works great for me!.
Cases, well I got a few but nothing so far that I call amazing. As for Battery back ups, there is one that is 4500mAh and outputs 1A which I saw a nice review for it on youtube and feedback seems to be a good choice.
Like this one
Regards

Sony's CP12 Power Cover is a 3000mAh battery case with flip cover & stand and comes with such a stylus. It comes with a magnetic charge cable to charge the battery & phone. It's mains charging process charges the phone's battery before it tops up the case's battery, when the case is charging the phone's battery, when the phone hits 100%, the case stops supplying power.

The stylus is extendable, BTW. The case does add a little more width to this already large phone, but it still fits in the front pockets of my slacks.
Yeah note for 139 I don't think I can do that for a case that seems a bit to steep for me I saw a couple on amazon for about 30 buck but I'll check out the Samsung c pen out

Hey guys, thought I'd share the accessories I've gathered up so far for the note...mostly to point out that I recommend them all. The iGo Stowaway BT keyboard is awesome, works wonders for me...coding on the fly, taking notes in class, etc. I've got a SanDisk 64gb sdxc card in there: works great (once you format to fat32). Got a Mountek car mount, MT5000-c: the one that slips in to the CD player...love that thing, basically have a TV in the car, the wife is spoiled when we're driving around! The spare batteries are by Hyperion, seem to hold their charge pretty well...no complaints yet, can't go wrong with 3 batteries in rotation (the other hyperion is in the GNote)...The case is a cheap Otterbox type of case minus the screen protection (i forget who makes them): so far it's awesome and will work until I get a defender case or something, it has a kick-stand too (flimsy, but works)...my only complaint about the case is that the MHL doesn't fit and I have to remove the case when I want to connect it. And finally, the MHL cable by Skivia, also works great (no issues with audio). Just waiting on my USB OTG cable to arrive from China...I'll be using that mainly to connect a mouse. Post your pics!
Update: the case is made by Reiko (Hybrid Case)

So having a bigger battery is nice right? I mean all that extra juice comes in handy especially with that nice big note screen. However the thing looks a bit funny and isn't well protected anymore. Is there a case that replaces the back cover? The batteries are rather cheap(I got scammed for 40 bucks for my 5200) there must be something out there....
Your best bet is to just buy a spare OEM battery and charging dock. Keep it slim and most likely 2 OEM batteries will last longer then a 5200. The spare is real thin, I keep mine in my wallet. Usually only need it for trips and really late nights partying.

This is honestly your best bet at this moment. I'm ordering mine tomorrow after my pay clears. I also have a 5000mah battery but I figure this would help me along also.

I was hesitant to buy the extended battery, however at less than $9 shipped, I took the chance. I'm very satisfied! Sure, the device is bigger now, but I can go the whole day while on LTE and not worry about swapping the battery out or forgetting the extra battery, etc. I purchased an aluminum bumper to aid in protection for the sides. I got over 6hrs screen on time yesterday on the FIRST day of using the battery. All syncs on, all location services (except GPS) on always, etc. Basically, I wasn't trying to save battery at all.

I have an extended battery and Hyperion case its not that bad after this I don't think I could go back to the regular battery I stream Pandora to my Bluetooth speaker and play Netflix heavy. I can make it through 8 hours now its well worth it for me!
I'm testing both these extended batterys to see which ones better.

HyperIons case fits the funky extended battery
Just curious as to what you guys use and what fits. I'm currently using an aluminum bumper but I'm growing ever annoyed with it.

Absolutely nothing. I just like to protect my phones and I had a diztronic case previous to my extended battery I'd like something similar, but can't seem to find any. Given the design of extended batteries, they need to be a bumper just like my aluminum one pictured above...in order to fit properly.

I can't tell which one you are using but it appears similar to the SZLF Bumper case I have (installs the same way). Why do you find it annoying?
I find it annoying because when you press on the battery cover to reinstall (the battery cover) sometimes the front frame pops out - I find the front wire frame a bit flimsy.
I want to get this one:

I posted a pic in the first post. Basically, it doesn't provide good grip like a tpu case would. It fits OK, but the 2 piece setup rattles a bit sometimes and it attracts dirt.
I also don't think the one you posted would work. It goes around the SPen opening, which can't be done with the extended battery I have.

I usually have data & gps off.... it takes me longer to turn them on then to get a lock.
hi all, i just received this docking station from tmart.com for under 15 dollars.
i have a extended battery i reviewed from them and it was so good that i decided to review this item.
here is a link to the docking station
http://www.tmart.com/Twin-USB-Cradl...te-i9220-n7000-Black-Only-Cradle_p140022.html .
well first impressions is it is a good dock it has dual usb ports, you can plug your wall charger in to it and also plug it in to your computer at the same time which is a nice feature.
when charging your phone it stands straight up but you can lay it on its side for movie watching game playing just not charging.
pretty sturdy plastic and has a led that is red and turns blue when the spare battery is charged.
i have a few battery's and the extra charge bay is great.
here is a few pictures of the dock.

Yes. I only use it for charging the battery though as I'm too lazy to remove my Otterbox and it won't fit in the cradle with it on. No biggie.

it does charge the battery pretty fast
well as of last night it topped of my 3250mah mt stock and my 5200mah battery's and has my sons galaxy blaze charging on it to.
i like this dock and it is very useful for media viewing or playing games with my wii mote
So I'm guessing this doesn't work with the Tmart extended battery cover, eh?
No it don't, what I will he doing after I test out my 3250mah battery is rotate so when my 5200 dies I can pit it in the charging slot and run my 3250 while that's charging or my OEM one.
I like the dock though it comes in pretty handy.

I have had a terrible time finding a case solution. I've been all over the online stores looking and came up empty. The only options available seem to be from AT&T. They are way too expensive! :crying:
Ideally, I want a set that works together. Like the black one on AT&T.
Yeah i have the asus folio set. A friend works for AT&T so i got half off and still was $40

Padfone X cases
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hybrid-Plas...Stand-Holster-Asus-PadFone-X-CC-/371106238649
I have bought this one, not too bad. This Ebay store has other cases for the Padfone X also. I'm happy with this one.
too bad that cant fit into the station...
I purchased one from Amazon, they have many derivatives and colors of this one, just search for "LF 4 in 1 Bundle Padfone X" and you should get several hits.
The one at the AT&T Store from Incipio is TERRIBLE and a very poor value for money. I purchased it and ended up returning it because it was just poor quality and actually did not protect the phone from drops etc. It was just a face cover.
FYI
The Seidio spring-clip holster for the LG G3 (without case) fits nearly perfectly - just need a small adhesive rubber bumper on the top clip to prevent the slight movement as the G3 is slightly taller but otherwise nearly the same dimensions as the PX (the kind you stick on the bottom of things to prevent scratching/movement).
With a little creative use of a Dremel, the Incipio station cover works with the mobile dock.
I ould have done better on one side, but it will do for now.
