Well, I received my custom case made by EASECASE, I can just say it is fantastic.
1. Nice leather.
2. Very well sewing.
3. They applied my custom requests (engraving my name, adding holes for speaker and handsfree).
4. Very satisfied of their replies and customer relationship.
5. Fast processing and shipping.
6. and so on...
Some pics are attached.

I ordered one too - type A1, I will post pics when it will arrive.
TAEL: are you satisfied with your case, what could you say, it's worth the money? I have now leather case from pdair (vertical type), but it doesn't have microfibre inner lining, so I ordered easycase..

i haVE THEM FOR 3 diff phones they are great.

Could you tell me why I can't go to this seller page from France:
Here is the result:
"Unfortunately, access to this particular item has been blocked due to legal restrictions in some countries.

Great :-((

Hmm interesting, but don't worry, because seller don't ship to France either

Ok, thanks for the answer, even if it's not a so good news ;-)

Excellent
I've used Easecase on my TP 2, DHD and I'm about to get one for the SGS2. Three in a row, I think that reflects my views of Easecase products. You wont be disappointed with their products.
p.s. The picture they use of the SGS2 which looks scratched to death doesn't reflect the condition of my phones.

I would go with the top silver one.
How about Taurus Alu case?
More colors for choice and looks pretty nice!
I would get the last option but that is me
1st - thickest! its like the taurus case but uglier
2nd - looks good. but from video review you can see that there is a huge gap between the phone and the outer part of the case. likely just as thick as 1st case or taurus case
3rd - perfect. slider removal too so you don't need to unscrew. + the fact that it's very form fitting. possibly only 2mm gap between phone and case from what i see on youtube.
I vote for the AkiBa slider! Looks thinner and no screws required for installs which is a must for me since I clean my phone often.

Does anyone want to buy a gunmetal Taurus case? I got mine from Mobilefun the other day - spent £25 on it inc postage. I've also got an aluminium/silicone one which I prefer so this is surplus. No packaging but perfect condition - looking for £15 shipped to anywhere in UK...

A1 EASECASE Custom-Made Leather case

I found on ebay this leather case for our lovely SGN: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/A1-EASECA...307038?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item56471d8f5e
Has anyone tried this case and do you know where can be found same type of case with lower price?
Easecase cases are very high quality as i bought one before for my Sensation. I've never seen them cheaper than what you see on Ebay as they are each custom made. I was thinning about the E5 or E6 versions but at a cost of over £60 it's a lot for a case. Excellent quality, you get what you pay for.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I had an Easecase for my Dell Streak and despite the rather high cost, I'll be purchasing one for my not yet owned white Gnote ...
They're fabulous quality and you can choose from so many options with regard to colour, design, size ... I asked for my Streak case to have a hole so I could attach a strap and they were happy to do this even though not their usual design. Sold on ebay and ships from Hong Kong and even though custom made, the turnaround was excellent, allow several weeks though.
Overall outstanding!!
Now I just need my Note
i order E4 EASECASE Custom-Made Leather case for Samsung Galaxy Note...i'll update more when i get.
E5 ordered
I've ordered the E5 in the hopes I can entirely replace my wallet with it.
Once the looooong wait is over to get it, I'll post a my thoughts and feelings.
If anyone has ordered something from these guys before, how long did it actually take to get it.
I'm in Sweden at the moment, and, strangely, mail to here seems to come a lot quicker than it does to the UK - at least based on my ordering stuff from the US and the EU since I have been here.
I'll be watching this thread also, as I'm considering getting a custom-made case for my Note as well.
I'm aiming to replace my wallet. I'd like to keep my credit and debit cards, my workplace badge/ID card, my car spare key, and some cash all available on the Note. A friend jokingly called me ridiculous for wanting to keep all those possessions in one place, because if it ever got lost....
But for the past year my Vibrant has been at my side constantly, save a day or two. I've taken to wearing a stereo BT headset for awhile now, and it beeps if I get out of range of the Note, so there's a reminder.
One of my main concerns, though, is the day to day accessibility that might be impeded by the wallet/case enclosure. Will the flap over the screen fold back all the way out of the way? Will the Note + leather case be too thick and cumbersome for the pocket? Will the Note's CPU get overly warm? How about the stylus access? Can the flap double as both a vertical and horizontal kickstand for movie viewing?
I hope most of these concerns will be manageable. A supple leather case custom-fit for the Note just oozes class and functionality. Hope to see some positive reviews forthcoming...

may i know how you ordered the a5? i am looking around their store and cant find that model
is lining leather selection to determine the leather inside? so you can have different color/leather inside??
I may purchase the A6 case, but have had bad experiences with leather phone cases in the past.
Are easecases soft to the touch?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Anyone here have this case ordered? Can you share the manufacturer's link?
I was planning on getting a certain Easecase, but can't seem to find the particular style anymore. Was looking for the case with the flap on the left to hold credit cards and the open-face pouch on the right, so you can use the Note without taking it out.... anyone see that link anymore?
I seem to recall that the case I was looking at was from an Australian shop. Was looking to have it custom-made (hole for stylus, engraved name, ability of left flap to bend back to double as a kickstand...)
Thanks,
Andrew
I ordered one from Ebay. It took a few Weeks to arrive and when it did it had not been made to the specification i ordered. I emailed the seller who apologised and made a replacement free of charge. Both cases are of very high quality and i highly recommend them.

Hi Guys !
Just looked at this thread and the link on eBay , as I´m also waiting for a high quality leathercase - I´d ordered mine from PIEL FRAMA.
Scrolling down the advertising page on ebay I saw the different possibilities of closure-mechanisms , so there´s my warning:
Beware of magnetic closures , they will make problems with SGN Display in the region of the magnetic flap !!
Statement: PielFrama also produced their first Series of SGNCases with a magentic flip mechanism and MUST change back to nonmagentic snaps !
EmailReply PF :
We have been checking the case with our craftsmen and now, everything is
solved so that, the case you will receive does not have any problem.
This post should solve dissapointments cause of sharing recent experiences !

Hi, I ordered the E5, not the A5 which might be why you are struggling
I am mighty impressed by the simplicity of the D2 case but the seller doesn't ship to India. Would have loved to get one.

I suggest you email the seller and ask if he'd be willing to send it to India anyway... I travel a lot, and often vendors can be accommodating if you send a copy of your passport or pay by bank transfer or something.
Failing that, a volunteer on here to ship it on to you

Can you elaborate what is PielFrama? Are you talking about EASECASE? or who?
I want to order an E6 (which is a wallet) with magnetic closing - but need to know whether that would cause problems or not - or you saying its fixed?
PS: Anyone knows whether the phone fitted with a Flip case would still easily get into an E6 (or other cases, I suppose they have same space compartment for the phone).
I am currently using PDair case with magnetic closure without encountering problems so far. I've also ordered an A4 Easecase also with magnetic closure, and the manufacturer e-mailed me last week that the inner side of the closure is 'demagnetized' and therefore shouldn't be a problem.
Given the negative views expressed in the XDA forum on magnetic closures, I'm still uncertain and keeping my fingers crossed.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I'm thinking of getting the E2 case. I was wondering if you've tried to have your galaxy note in a easecase while having an additional case on the phone (i.e., Nillkin). If so, how's the fit?
I had the pdair with magnets and still do, only thing is i took the magnet clasp off and attached a non magnetic clasp instead when i noticed the compass moving with the magnet while using maps, flip the case right over and the highly magnetic side is facing the back of the phone, so the compass moves there check out my before and after pics of my sewing on the new clasp in the magnetic clasp message in the note accessories forum

Just got an email to say my E5 has been shipped and should be here in a couple of weeks. I'll provide a mini review when I get it and use it a little bit.

I actually have a Zenus Galaxy Note Prestige Origami Diary Series case (webpage here), which also has a magnetic latch. As a precaution I have stopped using this case until more information comes out about magnets interfering with the S-Pen and screen. In the meantime, I have sent Zenus USA this e-mail... hopefully they may know about this situation and / or update us with either more information or a change in their product design to non-magnetic cases...
=== e-mail to Zenus USA ===
Dear Zenus,
I have recently purchased a Galaxy Note Prestige Origami Diary Series case for my Samsung Galaxy Note, and I have a question / query about the magnetic closure system used to keep the case closed...
As you may or may not know, the Samsung Galaxy Note has a WACOM-based stylus to be used on it's display, which utilises a magnetic layer on top of the phone display itself. This allows the stylus (the S-Pen) to draw very accurate points and lines along the whole of the screen itself.
Now, there have been reports that magnetic latches on phone cases may interfere with the sensitivity of the Galaxy Note's magnetized screen, and over on the XDA-Developers forums there have been several discussions as to whether magnetic opening and closing mechanisms on cases actually do affect the S-Pen's accuracy. Reports have ranged from no effect at all to a complete "dead zone" around the part where a case with a magnetic latch is in close contact to the screen for an extended period of time. An example of such case can be seen in this forum post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19887574&postcount=11
And this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445478&page=4&styleid=15
Now I am not personally sure whether the Galaxy Note Prestige Origami Diary Series case, which does have a magnetic latch, will affect my phone's screen in any way. But as a precaution I have temporarily stopped using the case.
But as a very satisfied customer of Zenus, I hope the company can be aware of such new issues popping up and if / when it is found that yes, magnets in close proximity to the screen for an extended period of time will affect the accuracy / usability of the S-Pen on the Samsung Galaxy Note; that Zenus can let it's customers be aware of this issue and (possibly) alter the designs of the cases so that it has a physical hook / physical latch / velcro etc. as a opening-closing mechanism instead of a small magnet...
For now, us folks over on XDA-Developers forums have issued a word of caution about the use of cases with magnetic latches for the Samsung Galaxy Note. And would like a few answers as if the magnetic latches actually have a negative effect on Galaxy Note screens in the long run...
Thank you for your time and effort in reading this very long but (arguably) nessecary notification to your products,
byeh (XDA Member)

Anyway i like nillkin case too in red color :laugh:
I got this one from Amazon

Fits really good and you can see pics I took in the reviews.
I reached out to Devilcase and asked if they were planning any Aluminum bumper cases for the XZ2.
In the first half of May 2018 they should be releasing one for the phone. Just incase anyone else likes those Aluminum bumper cases.
I Have also reached out to Luphie Cases but from them I didn't get any answer as of yet.
DBrand told me they won't be selling any XZ2 Skins.
I might add that I've been using the Style Touch cover for the XZ2 and will until the Devilcase one arrives in late May/June. I don't like the flappy window cover at all. The touch cover is too rigid when you've got the cover opened and I can't hold it comfortably in my hand whilst open. When its closed the cover is not straight on top of the screen and makes it hard for the screen to register touches on the left side of the screen.
Any advice for some shockproof case with display protection? Something like https://m.ebay.com/itm/For-Sony-Xpe...:m:mc31MQr_76OVK-2tnCk12aA&varId=413321369055 (but with display protection I have mentioned).

I ordered the black color. I have Nillkin superslim Nature transparent and Frosted at the moment.
I'm waiting Ringke ?
I recommend this one:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Tpu...197.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.b0c24c4dE7OOxJ
Nice fit, slim and well built.
I have this Nillkin transparent case and it's fine. I also ordered an IMAK case today. I had IMAK cases in the past the the grip is fantastic, it's like you touch a stone.
I have to say these two look kinda decent....

Edit:
So i just bought these two and found some others....
The Ringke one does look a little too bulky, IMHO.
This Nillkin one also looks kinda neat.
this case is awesome and my phone is well protected in case of drop

I bought the transparent version which still shows the beautiful design and avoid sliding and scratches in the back.

Likewise I reached out to Devilcase and asked about a bumper case for the XZ2 compact, the first response was as you mention the second half of may. I waited and the bumpercase for the regular XZ2-model did show up and is available on their page. No sign of the XZ2-compact model however. So I once again reached out and after some back and forth it turns out the XZ2-compact is not available on their domestic market so they will not make the bumpercase available through them directly, it will only be available through their retailers. I am currently awaiting a response for which of their retailers will carry the XZ2-compact model, and will update with their response.

After much searching (I have not yet heard back from devilcase) I believe I have actually found the first batch of bumpercases for the XZ2 Compact (In one of my mails from Devilcase they eluded to that the first batch of cases were branded differently than they normally would be). It seems they went here:
As you can see they are branded DECASE, but it is in fact the Devilcase bumpers, as Croy Mobile is listed as one of their retailers on the Devilcase homepage. So it would seem that a bumpercase for the XZ2 Compact is available, but only in Japan, as I can find no mention of international shipping on the homepage of Croy Mobile.

yeah, that's the Ringke Onyx. It's probably the single, best case available at the moment, if you want any protection for the screen and corners that is. The trend these days seem to be thin cases that just protect from scratches and not drops of any kind. Something I personally don't quite understand (as someone who tends to drop the phone at the gym every couple of months ).
Was quite disappointed in this guy, the Olixar ExoShield. As you can see in this picture I took before I sent it back, while it has great protection for the corners and screen, it's a box that completely ignores the shape of the back of the phone. That ticked me off so much I had to send Olixar a complaint about it asking them what the heck they were thinking.

The Z Fold 2 Case Thread

Thought I'd start one up. What have you guys seen or ordered?
Spigen's got some stuff on Amazon already.
Ultra Hybrid

Thin Fit
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08B11KLFF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_IU8tFbWA3WMMM
Tough Armor
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089ZZ3PX7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_SV8tFbAHQPK2H
Urban Armor Gear also has a listing for one.

I have the aramid Samsung case on the way. Might get the Ultra Hybrid or Thin Fit just to have the front part of the case.
None of them will be here by September 18th though. I'm hoping the shipping dates will get moved up soon.

Worried about that myself so ordered a dbrand skin.
I'm not normally a skin guy but it's better then nothing on this 2k device.
I'm just not a fan of the Samsung ones with them only covering the back
yeah i wish they had some cases. I need something to give the screen a slight lift so it doesn't make surface contact etc.
i hope spigen moves up their times.
I'm going to order the aramid cover. Like you guys, I want to protect it a bit while other cases come out. I'm definitely going to leave the plastic screen protector on the front display until something suitable comes out
Clear Spigen?
I went to order the Spigen Ultra Hybrid on Amazon.
I'd like a crystal-clear version as I've used for the last couple of Note phones, but presently the title of the listing is "Matte Black" and the visual render looks like black.
On the other hand, the description says: "Crystal clear transparency flaunts original phone design".
I think this listing needs work, and hopefully they will soon have a Crystal version.
Links to Amazon are in the US
I am interested in this one for those of us in the UK o r Europe:

Reasonable price too.

The Spigen Ultra Hybrid cases have been around for a while. They are made with a matte colored TPU bumper around the edges and the back portion is a clear polycarbonate. Had the render used the bronze Z Fold 2 it would be much more apparent.
Link to the Note 20 Ultra version for comparison. Check the other pictures and you can see how it would look on a bronze or white phone.

Thanks for the link. I ordered the official Aramid case from Samsung, as I usually opt for Spigen with the stands, but the lack of protection for other parts of the phone is worrying. I'm not sure I could use the case you've opted for though as I like to be able to glance the screen. It will be interesting to see how that one works as in how does it hold when the screen is folded open. is it held in place magnetically or does it flap about.
They have a couple of extra options at the site, for anyone UK/EU side, though the prices for the official cases are higher than getting direct from Samsung, especially if you use the 10% off code at Samsung.

Yeah the Samsung cases are stupidly priced, the leather ones are retailed at a staggering £80 ($105) for what is just a small flimsy back cover. Why are they blatantly ripping its consumers off?
The cover in the link I posted, is also genuine leather and it protects the whole phone including the screen. I have always bought covers rather than bumper cases as the screen is the most important part of the phone. I can't imagine how expensive it would be to replace the front screen! Anyway it does use magnets to hold itself together. I have seen other pics of it elsewhere and it looks really good. And at less than half the price of the Samsung one, I ordered it. I will let you know what it's like when I get it.

I am always amazed at how pricey the cases are from Samsung and then how cheaply made they are. I bought the wallet case for my note 20 ultra and the camera protection is non existent as well as the top and bottom are exposed. They wanted $60 for that pos
This case should be even less since it's just one piece but Samsung figure you'll spend it because you put 2k on a device.
I almost feel like Samsung is punishing us for affording an expensive device. "Oh you have all this money to spend on a device? Well I am going make you over pay for the cases"
I’ve been tempted to get the Aramid case but for the price may just get a leather wallet when they become available in the US. Hopefully there will be a few options to choose from.
Anyone found one for delivery for the 18th? Everything is months away...

I ordered the Aramid case from Samsung at the same time I ordered the phone and it will be delivered at the same time as my phone on the 15th before 10:30am
Admittedly the case will likely only be a temporary one for me and I will be grabbing something more suitable when available. Hopefully Spigen will have something out soon, as I like their cases with kickstands, but in the meantime the Aramid will be fine as I am working from home until the end of December at least and due to health I don't go out much so it will be fine.
Well, I put off ordering a case because.. well, I was just waiting to see if any new cases would pop up anywhere. Lo and behold, Samsung are sold out of the Aramid and the leather in brown and black. You can currently, as of 9/9, only purchase the green leather one.
I'm confused, why didn't Samsung make more? Ugh
Anyone know when Spigen cases will come to UK? This is the first time not seeing a link to a page on Amazon UK for it before the phone is out
I took a chance on the flip case cover from Araree in Korea. Was as expensive as the official Samsung cases but at least offers wallet type protection. Hopefully they ship closer to the 22nd.
$54 total from eBay.
