If you, like me, prefer the sleeve style of phone case - here is the best I have found.

The cases are very well made using top quality materials. I have no affiliation to the case maker.

Has anyone purchased this case?

Review, photos if possible. It looks like it may be slimmer than the usual leather case.
Hi all, I've been following the board almost everyday, but it seems like many are interested in the Leather Portfolio style cases. Are there any portfolio style cases that are "not" leather (including the synthetic leather)? I'm just not really a fan of leather at all. Thanks in advance if anyone found any.
I think that all of he slim cases available right now are (p)leather. I also don't like my gadgets to look like they came out of a 1996 Skymall catalog so I have been looking for more modern case designs and have been sadly left empty handed.
Perhaps the TF Prime is just too new, for some reason leather-style cases always seem to be the first ones available for any new device since they are cut & sew. Maybe in a few months we will start seeing form-fitting TPU, silicon & siliconed fabric cases.
What is the thinnest folding case available
I am looking for a case for the 300 that is as thin as possible. I really only care about scratch protection, I don't expect it to protect from drops (not that most case will provide that protection anyways). I do need it to have a stand function to watch movies. Since this is already thicker than prime I want to minimize that as much as possible.
Even the cheapie vinyl thin case that came bundled with the Acer a500 at costco would be fine. It was very thin.
The case I have for my ipad2 is tapered at the edges to keep the profile as thin as possible instead of being just squared off at the side edges. In other words, it should wrap around the side edges like a glove.
i just ordered the MOKO slim fit case from amazon. I hope this caters to your needs. it's slim and tough enough to even withstand drops.

decent but not quite what I am looking for. The case you are talking about clips or hooks onto the tablet in about4 to 6 areas (4 corners plus maybe 2 additional top and bottom). It leaves alot of the edge exposed. On th eplus side it is usually a hard back case so decent protetion.
However, what I had in mind is a case that slips all around the edges of the tablet. Most cases are designed like this but except what I have in mind would be slimmer with the edges tapered to match the edge of the tablet but still wrapping the entire tablet (except at the ports). Hard to tell, but I think this case fits that description but it is for tf101 only:

Honestly? I am still waiting for something the like the shell+smartcover that my mom's Ipad has. That really is brilliant stuf.
For now I found this to be the thinnest sleeve/cover/whatever
Urbanflip series on HandiHeldItems
I have one and had to adjust the hole for the headphone jack.
But it works pretty good, is a lot thinner that some other case I bought and has a cut out for the charger.
But an Ipad-like smartcover .. to me that's the bomb

Wow, that's almost exactly what I'm looking for - just with the ability to use it with the dock! They have this one on their site that does just that:
HHI Keyboard Case with Slim Portfolio Stand Cover for Asus Transformer Pad TF300
I have a carbon fiber leather case for my Galaxy Tab 10.1 and won't buy another case unless it's the same material, it looks so slick and resists scratches and hides dirt like no other case. Since getting it, I've taken out the tablet probably 3 times!
Good find!

These are nice! To bad the carbon fiber one won't be out until June 18!
From my long awaited and totally worth it EVO LTE!
All 3 of these are pretty much the same and is the thinnest case out in the market:

I also found a similar case on Ebay but it looks slitghtly cheap. I wish it wasn't microsuede:

This case is also very thin but I can't find it anywhere outside of the wholesale site:

I am thinking of this case, but my only qualm is that I don't know if I like the idea of putting a fake leather case on a fake leather phone. lol.

I ordered a couple. The price is great, so I figured I didn't have much to lose. They do get great reviews on Amazon. It will be interesting to see how they compare to Diztronic.
the design seemed very generic. i think it would be great if they offered customized case painting e.g. have your photo on the case etc.
The fit on the sides looks like trash!

for $2, why not! I'm in
Any good leather cases that anyone has seen? I'd prefer one without a flap and just a case with leather on the back.
Bumping this. Found that the LG premium case just imitates leather, so the hunt continues.
Hard to search for a leather case since every result comes back as a flip case
