I wanted to share this deal with everyone if you want an authentic s-view cover for a lot less than most retailers. You can't beat this cover for $18. I purchased this from paydeals during their last deal a month or so ago and I love it. They do sell the real product even though it comes in a plastic bag and you can process through Amazon for payment.
Oh and drive the price down to $16.10 by using code FPTCAYMN. Thank you nfl46!

Spigen sells a magnetic clip for this case on Amazon that helps keep the cover down for those afraid of it constantly swinging open.

How can you tell? Stiching and build quality seems good, but it came in a zip lock case without protective film over the plastic window. I'm getting a note 3 on Monday so well do an Ota with T-Mobile and see if it works (fake ones were not supposed to work on kitkat)
It works perfect on mine and I have a friend that has an original that he bought from Samsung and it's the same exact one. Been using it for well over a month without a hiccup.
Mine came in the same bag. Most of their stuff doesn't come in retail package but everything is legit!

the first update 4.1.2 to 4.4.2didn't work, there was a minor 4.4.2 update about 2 weeks after that worked, I had about 8 s view case, all had different ic, they all work now.
is any of these 8 genuine? maybe you can spot wheter its a fake
Honestly I have not heard of anything on Paydeals being fake. Most customers are happy except the few who didnt research before buying, but that is normal.
Links not working for me, can anyone post the link again to the black s view case? Thanks.

Just received mine after ordering on ebay. I paid for the faster shipping and received it in only 4 days.
I've attached some pictures. Since I don't have the phone yet (obviously) i've been putting the case in my pocket and have been simulating using it (sad i know)
I love the size, and this case is awesome. I ended up picking this one because of the look and the kick stand. Definitely recommend so far.

Just wanted you to know is not really a case. It is another back which replaces the stock back and a flap that covers the screen. The edges of the GNote are still completely exposed.
Just wanted you to know what the flip case is.
Apparently the flip case will only last about a month due to some defects. People are complaining that it is falling apart. Good for free but don't spend you hard earned cash on it.

If it doesn't, you can just add some padded tape to the inside. that way, if the phone is thinner, it will fit snugly.
Let me know if this one is good

Anybody try the ZENUS Galaxy Note Capsule Stand Slide Series with an AT&T Note yet? I wanna make sure it works perfectly before I pull the trigger. thanks
Has anyone found a case that's durable like the one Seidio sells? Seidio won't have one out until later and I need something durable and something with a good grip, with the phone being so big and I have small hands, I'm afraid it'll slip. I bought the Zenus leather case for the time being.
UPDATE: I asked one of the eBay seller about the Zenus capsule and said it's more on the slippery side but is made with hard material.

I have one and it's excellent. Well mine is branded by Momax, but it's exactly the same. It's back is solid and it's side cling on tight to the phone, inlike the SGP version. It's not that thin though, but not too thick. For a balance of thinness and protection, it's a great combination.

Wow. Then I guess he needs to go shopping at more places. Just sayin'.
Bought one from Keivkev from their ebay store since it was about a buck cheaper with the free shipping. Arrived in 2 days. Interesting how its fine to mention Amazon and best buy in this thread but not a smaller seller. I guess if Jeff Bezos came in here and posted a link to a product on amazon he'd be rediculed as well....
Anyway. Good case. Fits snug. Pressing the buttons isn't as easy as doing it without a case but I guess that's to be expected. Actually maybe it'll be a benefit since I accidentally hit the volume buttons when I'm typing or doing something in lansldscape.
The included screen protector was a suprise as I didn't read the full description. Its made for the international version so it has an opening for its button. I may use it until I get one made specifically for the US model. Overall, worth the 14 bux or so.
Just ordered this case on eBay from kevikev a couple days ago! Can't wait..

i think the back cover is not effective for protection. its because when your phone drops, you dont know which part will hit the ground first. thus, you still need a case. lol
Either way protection or not from the images it does look ascetically better then what samsung offers.
I bought for 6.99 free shipping. I got to try it for this price

It went up a dollar. I'm going to snag it before it goes higher.
guys i bought a case like this for my sisters s4 , and i can confirm NFC doesnt work , also it ads bulk and weight to the phone , to the point where i personally didnt like it , it has a plastic case under the aluminum one.
Seemst to me that would get scratched up and look bad fairly quickly. Unless you put a case on it, but it would be pointless to buy if you're going to cover it with a case. I'd also be concerned about what it did to reception.

I'm a sucker for new tech and the video of Tech21's "non newtonian" D3O substance was like tech porn. I was wondering if anyone has any insights on Tech21? especially for the Gnote3 since that is the case I'll be buying it for once they actually start selling it. I'm not 100% sure if the GN3 model is being sold yet so I'd settle for any review of their products.
Other than the relatively high price the only other complaint I've seen of their cases was the hard buttons. The GN3 case looks like the buttons are cut out (tho it's hard to tell with their low res pics). Any other complaints? Praise?
Thanks
Agreed best case in terms of protection and size, i have one for my s4 and love it. I noticed they have it listed on their site but i cant seem to find it for purchase.

Their case is fine, but their customer service is very bad. I bought one for their iPhone 5 Case, it has scratch right after I opened the box. I call their customer service to try to exchange it, they refuse to do so.
My local t-mobile store in Folsom, CA has tech21 cases for the gnote3. I would imagine other tmo stores have them too.

My tmobile had 2 different tech21 cases. One black and one blue
Tmobile is non exist any where I am in Nebraska. I want the clear one in my life so bad. I can't find a retailer or even find the case in two's page.
Yea T-Mobile is now big on Tech 21 cases, they have a few color choices at every store I've been in. I actually bought one on the first day with the phone and only returned it because I had ordered 3 others online for half its price in total. Still it was cool when the manager of the store demonstrated this impact case by throwing the Note 3 half way across the store to demonstrate why it costs 40 dollars.
I picked one up when I bought my Note 3 until I found a proper case. I used one like this on my Amaze, and after 2 years it was almost flawless. It definitely protects well and I'm even totally confident to leave it laying around the kids. Its like a tank. I will be replacing it with the Neo Hybrid (if it ever arrives) because I want something that will show off the sharp sides of the Note 3. If these guys made something like that they would be my number one for protection.

Awesome. Thanks. I'll have to check em out after my rotation tomorrow.
Now many T-Mobile corp stores in NYC are selling several varieties of Tech21 cases.
Original smoky grey (the one I have).
Smoky blue
Clear pink
Black "book" style
My choice was pretty limited when I bought N3 two weeks ago, but it turns out this is so far the best I chose.
I am not that big on "remove twice, install twice" in Incipio.
I am not interested the one with "window".
I just want Body Glove Diamond type which I used with Note 2.

When you flip over the cover to the back, does it "flap" around when you hold the device in portrait mode?
