So I went to LA... where they sell discounted stuff, y'know, that place... anyway I spent $11 and got a Gel Case with is not bad to be honest, could be a little more snug, but it'll do for now until the big name brands come out with cases (I like otterbox. I really wanted to talk about the screen protector... WOW... what a POS! I forget the brand but It looked like the brand and packaging they sell at the mall carts, but obviously a lot cheaper due to where I purchased it. So Yea I had it on for about 1 day and just had to take it off, fingerprints all over (much worse than without a screen protector!), although it was smooth it was not as "free flowing" as the screen itself, but it was a lot smoother than some "anti-glare" screens. yea, worse $6 I ever spent, I took it off and order a set of realook screens from amazon, can't wait.

Did you get this case? It's actually has a pretty good feel and snug fit. I got red for under $4 free ship. Only gripe is the 1 random hole that doesn't serve a purpose.

I ordered a phantom protective screen for $6 on black friday, can't wait to put it on!
yea, I think? It looks exactly like that, no branding on the case itself. I'll be changing it out to an otterbox commuter once they develop one.
This case is very nice. Especially for the price of under 15 bucks shipped. The leather is very soft, almost feels real haha. Might be... The clips are very secure, they do not block any ports, speakers etc. There is a nice "friction" styled clip that holds great closed. The different angles for viewing the tab are great too, very solid "lock up". The interior material is soft too.
In the end, you cant go wrong with this case.

Not for Italy....thank you amazon!
I got it for $10 shipped from Amazon, and they are offering to refund the whole thing if you leave a review.
I don't think they are doing it anymore...
Sent from my Galaxy Tab!
I got my case yesterday, been waiting since August 24th or something for it lol. It was on backorder, but I got a paper saying if I did a review (not a 5 star.. I says just a review) I could get a refund. I will say I like this case a lot better than the Samsung one, for the main reason it has more angles. It does feel a bit more rough on the tab, but I like how all the ports/buttons are showing.
If you just need a case to hold your tab at angles while you use it, I think this is the cheapest case out there for it.
The Samsung official book case is very very nice, and super thin. But the viewing angles are horrible. I have this case on the way and will be going with this one for sure.
I just got a Galaxy Tab last week (gift from awesome girlfriend...) - ordered a 3 pack of screen protectors (Acase, not too bad) and this case on Amazon.
Ordered the case on Thursday, had it by Saturday (Amazon Prime). Looks like some people were waiting quite a while to get these.
I was hoping for a case that was made of fairly tight leather... you know how some cases look cheap because the leather is very poofy, has a lot of extraneous padding in it? So, this case still retains a slim sleek look, like a nice portfolio.
I like the microfiber inside with the three grooves for leaning the device into.
I wish the clip that held the case closed was like 2mm longer so it really reaches around the corner of the device and clips in solidly. It's held closed pretty well, but I've been bending it a bit to make it clasp just a bit tighter.
There's a little embossed viper logo on the front... some other brand on Amazon, equally cheap, had the Samsung logo on there.
In all, pretty great case for about $15 shipped.
The card I received in my package did instruct me to write a five star review for them, but DID NOT mention anything about getting a refund if you do so. I would say don't buy expecting to get it for free
I also just recieved this case. It's pretty slick, way better than the cheap eBay case I was using before (which cost twice as much.) Only complaint is that the case was mighty stinky to begin with, but its fine now.
this case is awesome and is way better than the official Samsung one. it did cause the newton ring, but I got rid of it. going to see if this trick works to keep the ring off.
This case is just superb for the price.

This case has been reviewed several times, although under different names. Search for "clip case." I got it free (after the refund). For me it's the best case on the market right now.
just ordered one of these just to have another spare. 15 cases to my collection. i really need to stop. this is getting ridiculous. lol.
Hahahah! You, sir, have what we call a case-by-case addiction!
These are exactly like the Pyro one you reviewed a while back. Can't beat the price though.
I agree, it's like the Pyrotek case. It looks a bit on the cheaper quality side, but I got it because I was tired of the wonky angles the official case was giving me.

So the only difference between this case and the Pyro case is that this one feels cheaper? It feels pretty nice to me. The price is just untouchable though. lol
I always wondered what the difference between this and the pyro case was.
yeah haha I dont know how come can consider this cheap lol price yeah but quality? Its pretty much to go to case for the tab. Its 15 bucks shipped, looks great, feels great, quality and craftsmanship is nice too.
Its just another case with the crappy stand design. Its not worth it. Look at the massive foot print it has when in stand mode. How can you use the device on your desk when the bottom case sticks out at you like a sore thumb. Very annoying.

If only there were an easy way to get one of these in Australia We need a bloody Amazon Australia quick smart.

I made my assessment from looking at task650's review on the Pyro Skin case.
When I look at my case, the clips that hold in the sides of the tab have so overlapping of the material (which I just trimmed off) the material that the tab stands up on for the angles has this grainy look on it, whereas on the pyroskin one, it looks smooth. There's the little notches on the 2nd stand that the pyroskin case has, that looks like it may promote a tighter close, where on this case the side clips just press onto it. Although all these observations could possibly be exclusive to my case.
That's what I made my observations on. I'm not saying it's a POS... because it's not; i'm just saying the quality LOOKS a bit on the cheaper side... which is fine by me because it was cheap as hell and it does it's job awesome.
Price: To be honest i wouldnt mind paying the price that Radioshack and other electronic stores sell it for, but you can get the same thing cheaper on ebay, the one i bought was here http://www.ebay.com/itm/140627305695#ht_8310wt_1396
First Thoughts: When i opened it it had the two layer case (silicone under case, and plastic over case) along with a screen protector. Its a nice touch on how the semi gloss hard case works with the matte silicone case
Review:Overall i love it, i would be willing to buy it for $30 like most places sell it for, and buy a otterbox for any other smartphone i get. At first it looks chunky until you hold it and try it out, it has a nice feel and when youre holding it you really arent afraid to drop it. It looks sleek alond with nice texture and grip, the buttons are easily accessible and no problem clicking them, all the extra ports are covered with flaps that you can easily open if you need it. It slides easily into my back and front pocked without a problem.
Price: 8 out of 10
Reason for this rating:Overall the pricing isnt bad, for the way this commuter series is made they could go slightly cheaper, but, i will be willing to pay its stock 30
Feel: 10 out of 10
Reason for this rating: Overall its a great case, rugged, sleek, easily accessible buttons, and extremely nice feel too it
Look: 9 out of 10
Reason for this rating: Overall it might look chunky but when your holding it, the case feels nice, personally when im holding it i really have no fear of doping it at all
Overall: 9 out of 10
can you post your MT4G picture?
Thanks for the review, it was helpful, pictures would help though since the ebay pics aren't great.
Otterbox is a nice cover for the MT4G! I would recommend this case! Looks good in my opinion!

Here's a review (with pics) I wrote a while back on OMG!Droid
http://omgdroid.com/product-review-otterbox-commuter-case-mt4g/
Been loving this case ever since I got it.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Best case I have ever had love it. I dropped ghat phone so.many times
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
After trying a few cases, this was easily my favorite as well.
The price of the case is a small investment to protect the phone. I'm gonna buy this OtterBox Commuter case next paycheck. Great thread, thanks!!
Yes! I freaking love the Otter Box for mt4g. Super good feel and I've dropped my phone a couple of times and knowing that I have the otter box isn't much of a worry anymore. Definitely recommend getting it.
Wow, i've been looking for a review of the commuter case for a while. I'm seriously debating on buying right now. I hate not having a case on my phone, i feel vulnerable.

Wish I'd seen this yesterday. I ordered the same case from Amazon for $19.95, but I still need to claim my ebates signup bonus. I'll post a review when it comes in tomorrow.
From what I've seen, this is identical to the Marware case but with fake leather on the lid instead of fabric.
Edit: and I'll never find out. Ordered with Prime early last week, and the seller hasn't shipped yet according to UPS. Cancelled my order and I'll probably buy the Marware instead.
Yeah, it looks just like my Marware case, which I love btw!

Looks like the case a coworker has on thier ipad. hopefully it works as well
I got that case a week ago for 10$ with a coupon. It is disappointing and is not worth over 10$. Back case is molded plastic, front is thin and not too durable felt/leather(?) sandwich that folds back and sort of creates a stand. Bump it and it will fall. Very cheap quality.
the Marware case has no problem sticking to skins that i got from ebay also.. i bought 2 and put one of them around the glass but the other two are on the front and back of the case.. no problem sticking and looks cool... of course you have to take a razor and cut the seam out..
I have this case and so far I love it. Like many people have mentioned it's not the highest quality material but it gives great protection, is functional (love the stand), and looks pretty good. Not only that but it's half the price of the marware one! Would definitely recommend this.
After two orders, finally got one. If your primary use for the KF is to stand in landscape or lie flat on a desk, it's pretty good. The inner felt lining is a nice touch and the backshell fits great and feels solid.
If you do anything at all else with your KF, buy the Marware instead. Even if it's currently $20 more. The big difference between the two is that the Acase's lid doesn't fold all the way back, so you can't one-hand it anymore without the lid flapping around to the left. For my purposes, it's crap. Return'd.
Great deal!
From what I've read the Marware case can be laid down completely flat whereas the Acase has issues with that. They are both designed the same but I guess you get what you pay for. I have the Marware case because it was included in my gift. I'm glad I didn't get the Acase for myself though. That tiny issue would've drove my insane lol.
How does everyone like this case?
The plastic part holds the kindle very well. The flap however, leaves much to be desired. It doesn't close all the way, and doesn't fold behind the kindle properly. There's not enough fabric on the "hinge" so it won't fit flush.
It drives me crazy, and I hate it =P
I ordered both this case and the marware case. I will take pics of both and let you guys know the differences.
It's nothing special but somebody on eBay is selling brand new in package Incipio cases for the G6 for only $2.49. I just got mine in the mail yesterday and it's thin, has good grip, fits perfectly, 3ft drop projection and arrived in 2 days from a US based seller. I think the only color he has available is clear but it looks good imo. I just ordered a second one assuming this one will eventually start yellowing like every other clear case I've ever owned. Nothing spectacular but I thought it was a killer price and wanted to pass it on to anyone looking for a really inexpensive quality case. Here's the link...
