Here it is the pics.. I just got my TF today..
(UPDATE) Tested all the cases for Gtablet. Most of them can fit the TF.But the camera hole and Function keys bottom the screen are blocked. Here it is the pics
They are not too loose,even a little tight.But it's not fully fit edge.
Because you know, TF edge is curved, while the G tablet edge is flat.
Thanks for sharing us where to buy it.
expensive in China

TF is expensive in China, I spend about $550...
Looks nice, is that leather? Motorola has similar case for their tablet... I don't know why asus came out with that rubberized pos.

Is this really the case for the Viewsonic gTablet "Clip Case" from the XDA user it2steve?
This one?
http://electroniccrap.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5_9&products_id=24
How is the fit? Looks good? Does the clips hold it ok? Is it stretched? Likely to break?
Does the cover close correctly? Can the cover be folded completely to the back?
Not yet..

It can not be fully fit.Can't hold it..Can't cover it.. My English is not very well But maybe the pics can speak for it..
The P3..
Here it is the P3 for TF
From your first post, it looks as if you managed to get the Clip case working? Did you remove the bottom clips?
Thanks for the pics, and your English is fine

I didn't remove the bottom clip.TF can be put into but not completely,So You can use it as a Stand. Can adjust the angle.But i think the FUSE is the better one..However the camera hole and bottom side need cut to fit it...

My concerns exactly. It looks like exactly what I want. Mine should arrive today, so I'll be heading to the various stores to see if they'll let me try it out.
I already have a bag that I use to transport my transformer and dock together. I am looking for something like a sleeve that will permanently stay on both the transformer and dock for protection, while they are docked together. If this does not exist, is there a sleeve that goes on the transformer itself that can stay on even when the dock is connected? Basically I never disconnect the dock from the transformer but want to be able to have protection on the transformer while it is being used and is docked.
http://www.decalgirl.com/skins/Asus-EEE-Transformer-Skins
Try that.
Or try this. I love the skins from bestskinsever as it really keeps the fingerprints down to a minimum. It is a clear, tough and beautiful skin that I use on all my electronics and still fits into the dock with a minimum of fuss. The price is right too at $19 for a full body skin or $14 for just the front.

Hi
I'm also looking into this as well, not so much a skin, but a sleeve or case.
So far I've found a few items, these two are the ones that catch my eye the most:
Sikai
Triple case
Any thoughts on one of these?
I have bought this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1245903.html
if it's good to you to double width of the tablet it is good.
I always use this case only for the tablet alone, because I fear that added thickness would damage dock's screen motion mechanism.
Cheers, ended up buying this one:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190642270942&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123
Will report back when I get it.
wow there are some awesome skins at decalgirl.
I didn't even know about skins when I bought a 'leather' case thing; still don't really. This could be a dumb question but what do they actually cover? Back of screen? Front of screen? Bottom of dock as well?
My TF hasn't actually arrived yet but I anticipate that I'll be taking only the pad into uni some days and pad+dock other days.
Pad+dock days are sorted already but when I'm just taking the pad do you think a skin will be enough protection? It will travel in my backpack so I'm really looking for as small as possible with screen-scratch protection and a little bit of cushioning perhaps. I know its always going to be a tradeoff but what's your experience been?
mmm, I do like the look of those skins.....
thanks!

Description says you have to take the dock off to close the case.
Sounds like a dealbreaker to me

Its not bad, its ok.
It stays on my tablet. However when I attach the keyboard to the tablet, doesn't work so well. I need to flip the case over and then it will fit with the keyboard on (but then the keyboard remains unprotected). Not ideal, but I get by. I then put the whole in one of those netbook style protected sleeves.
Has anyone seen a case for the note 3 that is like a hardcover book? If anyone has seen the ones made by portenzo and/or dodocase you know what i'm talking about.

Closest thing I've personally seen is on the usbgeek site. I'm new and can't post links but it's called "book case for note 3."
Like this?
These are on eBay for $16.
I have found some make by a Korean company called araree. You can find them at zoarah.com, they have a polycarbonate shell on the inside. I haven't bought one yet because I have the wireless back cover and afraid it won't fit.

Same. I found some from ARAREE (see the 1st pic)
Then there are a few others from ebay.
2nd pic >> seller: shop-leather
3rd pic (and way hilarious imo) >> seller: casemate_168
I purchased one from amaz0n on Friday. It should be here tomorrow. I will take pics and post them as soon as it comes in. :good:
I am very happy with the quality of this case. The one issue I had with it was that it had no clasp. I do not like the idea of dropping this and having the front flip open and it land screen down. That would kind of defeat the whole purpose of having a case like this. So I modified mine with a leather strap and button clip to close it.

There are 2 types of cases. One is made of hardcover
hardcover case
There other one is made of faux leahter for outer cover and hardcover for interior
leather case
have you try to use spigen's case
I ordered the Design case from the company in China directly, the price is reasonable and they seem to have a reasonable return policy. I'll post pictures/review when I get it.

It feels like real leather as I believe it is. Granted it is thin as they use hard backing to make up most of the thickness, but it is holding up very well and I am very pleased with the quality. I get compliments on it all the time when I go shopping or to the bank.:good:

Well that one looks nice to. I think they both use the same leather. At least that is what it looks like. The only reason I did not go with that one is that I wanted four card slots rather then three. I like the clear fourth slot for the ID so I do not have to pull out my DL all the time. But that seems to be the only difference I can tell as far as quality and function. At least yours comes with a clasp so you do not have to modify like I did.
Good looking, impractical, unusable case

So, got the case today. It's highly impractical for everyday use.
* It has VERY sharp corners so do NOT put it in your pockets.
* If you want to text, the cover part bends behind and is IN the way of your left hand while you text
* The cover doesn't close flush with the device screen when closed and sitting on a desk
* The material, while it seems sturdy, feels REALLY cheap and made out of cardboard. Just feels cheap.
* If you fold the cover back when you place this case on your desk, it sits VERY awkwardly on the desk at a weird angle.
* If you want to take a picture, HOW do you take a picture with the cover closed? The camera is exposed in the back, but how if you open the cover and it hangs down, it is just * impractical to take pictures.
* The inside cover of the case is cardboard. I would NEVER put a card (only room for one) in the slot. I would be VERY afraid of it ripping and the card falling out.
I'm not sure when this is meant to be used? If you hold the device in your hand and you are playing a game or texting, the cover is very bulky that makes it very difficult to use in your hands.
All in all, I wouldn't use this as an every day case. It's a LOT more bulky when opened back on itself for use.
The sharp corners are SCARY in my pocket. I scratched my leg at least 4 times during the course of 3 hours.
The case is now sitting on my desk unused.
Recommendation:
Nice idea. Bad execution. Impractical case.
Hi guys.
I currently have a case from mobile fun that has s-view and qi charging. it is good but the screen is scratched and has seemingly made scuff marks on the phone screen also. at least i have a screen protector on.
i dont really utilise the benefits of the s view like music from the home screen etc and as soon as it moves slighlty off centre the full screen shows below so i lose the s view screen.
so, i want a case, not just a replacement back that has qi charging but not a flip cover/s view.
do they do them and are there any recommenations?

Glad you had a screen protector.
For the case you're looking for, I don't think so. Most people on here are using Qi insert receivers. Mine works fine. Use what ever case you want.

It's it easy to use a qi insert? Which is a good one, i read a lot about over heading with them.
I like the spigen slim armour case, any experience with it?
Cheers for the help

This thread has a lot of info... a lot.
I never tried that case, I use an insert with the Spigen Neo hybrid... works well... The insert is ineffective 5mm away from the charge pad. 1mm is taken from the insert and the backcover of the pphone... that leaves you with 4mm. Your case needs to be less than 4mm thick. I think the slim armour meets this.
Happy hunting.

Cheers mate
I was wondering if any has come across a leather "smart-sleeve" for the Z3? I don't think the term really exists so let me explain.
I don't really like cases, but I don't really like a damaged phone either. The compromise for me would be a leather sleeve type of thing - like this random one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Lea...lePhonesCasesPouches&var=&hash=item4627d52959
But having to take out the phone just to check the time or see who is in fact calling would greatly decrease the protectiveness of said sleeve. So I thought a "smart-sleeve" with cutouts for the mic and speaker along with the window from a smart-case would be the perfect solution.
I haven't been able to locate any of this sort though and I don't believe my sewing skills are up for the task
Would you think there would be a market for this type of deal (And feel free to snatch the idea btw) or am I the only one thinking this could be practical?
//M
Regarding what you mentioned; this is the best way to enjoy your device and guarding it at the same time. I've been using leather pouches since a long time throughout all the phones I've bought and been enjoying it. I use the tpu back cover case when going to the gym or with any outdoor activities.

Yup but yet they are unpractical as I need to take it out of the sleeve when the phone rings - and the risk of me dropping it when I do that is unappealing. That's why I wanted a quick window in it

Surely the official case is ideal for what you describe?

No that is a flip or book case - not a pouch. I've had one of those for my G2 and didn't like it at all - the "door" is in the way most of the time
//M
Oh I see. So you want a pouch like the one sevoflurane suggested but that has cut outs so you rarely need to remove it?
I think, as you say, you'll struggle to find anything like that. The official book case is the only one I know that has the smart window anyway. I think you'd need to make something yourself.
Perhaps buy the official flip case and a leather pouch. Cut the front off the flip case and cut aligned holes in the pouch. Glue the case front to the inside of the pouch. You'd have to make sure you know how the flip case triggers the smart window on the phone so you don't accidentally remove it.
Don't know how handy you are but it might be tricky to make that not look terrible!
Another option is a smart watch. I have a Pebble which is perfect. Obviously has the time (it's a watch!) but also shows me notifications and stuff without even taking my phone out of my pocket. I can even see who is calling and dismiss the call if I don't want to answer it. Pebbles are pretty reasonably priced too and can do a lot of other funky stuff.

Yup exactly what I wanted
For the window the trigger most probably is a small magnet (at least it is on my G2), that shouldn't be much of a problem fitting in a pouch. As for a DIY kinda deal I think i might need to look for somebody else as my sewing abilities lack a lot to be desired :silly:
I've been on the smartwatch route for quite somme time, but has decided to go with a fitness tracker instead (Basis B1), it actually provides me with something on top of my phone, which a smart watch does not. But it is a good idea though
//M
Smart watches have fitness features. Pebble has had a recent update and there are a few excellent step counters, swimming counters etc but I'm not gonna try and sell you smart watches.
If you are careful, you could probably customise a pouch without needed to do any sewing. You only need to cut it in the right places and you wouldn't need to cut through any existing stitching. If you bought a couple of cheap pouches you could experiment with the cutting before you spend too much money.
Another thought, you might be able to use NFC to trigger the smart screen so then you could just stick one of those in the back of the pouch.

Not to derail completely - but no other fitness tracker can keep up with the Basis in terms of features (Heart rate monitor to name one). But on the positive side they have announced an upgrade which has smartwatch capabilities
I guess I need to find myslef a few cheap pouches for the purpose of experimentinga bit. Good idea on the NFC - at least if Sony is more open to their smart-window than LG is

If you do go for this, or find a case that suits, please update this thread. I'll be interested to see your solution.

No worries, thanks - I found something similar on eBay from a German dealer, so will see what thats like when it arrives. Appreciate the replay, thanks again!
Just received the case I ordered from eBay - what a crappy piece of junk. It's by no mean made for the Z3, I've send the seller an email but wont probably do me much good
Anyway if anybody could help figure out where the magnet to detect when the door is closed it would be cool - my tries have lead me nowhere so far
