Hello Folks,
So the GumDrop Drop Series case for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is currently in preorder status on GumDrops website but I recieved a response from them indicating that the cases will be in stock on August 25.
Wanted to let everybody know who is interested in a Rugged type case for the Galaxy Tab and is shaping up to be one of the better rugged cases but were hesitate how long they would be waiting in preorder status....

$60 bucks is expensive though, wish there was a flap for screen
Yeah, but I guess a positive is that the price includes a integrated screen protector which can be snapped out and replaced or not used at all for ppl that may not like screen protectors or already have one installed.
That and the similar style otterbox for the iPad 2 and Xoom is around $89.00
They've turned the Tab into a Toshiba Thrive!

Anybody heard anything more about when these are due to ship? Wanted to order the military case but wish it came in a color other than the ACU green. So I just ordered Black/Black. Really hoping they ship these soon.
Yeah, that is pretty hideous.
On the GumDrop website it just says "Late September" so not sure on the exact date.
It looks like both the regular and the military style have been delayed a bit so I hope it isnt pushed back again.
Also, I wish they would have gone with a Coyote Brown style for the military color as they would look extremely cool as opposed to the "Nickelodeon Slime Green" for the current military version.....
Agree...a flat dark earth or coyote would have looked better. Or multicam lol. Just hope they start shipping soon. Dont feel like putting too much wear and tear on the tab yet.

That case sure looks like it'll add quite a bit of bulk and weight to the tab. I'm still considering between using a case and caseless.
Are these cases for children? Looks like it.
They are for anyone that might drop their tab on a hard surface from 2 or more feet up.
If that includes children, then I guess you could say that.
BTW, the Black color one is now shipping with the other colors coming in September 30th.
I ordered yesterday and will post a review for all the children of the world to read when it comes in.

Like my lock screen? Lol...I have had it four days, and it feels great in hand and slides easily in my pocket (from Jeans to Gym shorts)!
I haven't dropped it yet but all four corners are completely double covered and I expect there would be ZERO damage if I do drop it...
They come in Black, White, Green, Pink, Purple or Red...
I think it is WELL worth the $20-$25 for it, and it looks BAD ASS!
Wow that does look pretty nice. Thanks for sharing, think I might order me one. Does that spine looking accessory snap on and off?

It looks very nice. Thanks for your contribution .

Dang, $15 dollars? Oh well. Fixin to get the new Evo LTE anyway...
Any thoughts on the raised/textured back? I'm looking at this compared to the flat one such as: http://www.amazon.com/Titanium-Black-Fishbone-Protector-SAMSUNG/dp/B006IZBKCS/ref=pd_bxgy_cps_img_c
Wondering if the textured back would feel good in my hand...

For me, the back isn't really textured or rough, just raised above the rubber inlet. It feels really good in hand, but I think the pricing on the smooth backed one is alot nicer!
Let me know if you have anymore questions...
Just came in the mail today.. Ordered off ebay. Thought I'd share a few photos as I am extremely happy with this one. Fits like a glove! Also love the fitted button reliefs; makes the power and volume buttons more precise so they don't get pocket-pushed. Finally, the matte finished Grey and included microfiber cloth and screen protector round off the deal quite nicely. $15.88 w/ free shipping... :screwy:

Hey there.. Here is the link to the ebay Page; http://www.ebay.com/itm/25110164579...NX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_2484wt_758
Or the mobile Site link; http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=251101645796&cmd=VIDESC
Let me know if that doesn't work.. I couldn't find the item on my phone here without logging in so I hope there is no reference to My Ebay in the link. After a little searching it seems as though this item comes in mercury (the color I bought in the picture), black, and magenta pink. You might be able to find it cheaper if you look but no guarantees on the fit if you order from somewhere else.. It seems like there are a few different Incipio models (a feather light one that comes in blue and another one under some fancy chemical name for the material) . My guess is they're all fairly high quality.. I'm definitely not disappointed. This one is TPU, and states specifically for the 4G LTE so I'm not sure about the GSM model, maybe they make one. Obviously I have a Sprint model.. Sorry but I'm just trying to cover my back since the sellers can be real tricky in their descriptions... But, this one is definitely from a USA seller, ships from California, and shipped REAL fast I had it in like 3 days to Wisconsin! Also tracking on the order w/ free shipping scanned via usps when it got here. The company or ebay ID is versio mobile (or versiomobile). ENJOY!
Edit: Sorry, just noticed the item was ended because it's no longer available.. Not sure why? That's probably the reason why I couldn't find it with a search.. Anyway guess that's it! For now anyway...

Got mine today. Best case EVER! If you don't want a thick case this is the case for you. Picked up mine on Amazon for $14.87 shipped.

Hey Guys,
So I've been searching around the web for a case for my Samsung Galaxy Note II and I came across the one made by Samsung. It seems to me that it's one of those style over functionality products. It's nearly $30-$40 and I'm trying to justify if it makes sense buying it.
Let me know what you guys think!

I was hoping there will be a smart case, whereby each time you flip open the case, the screen will be turned on.

Yeah its kind of like the iPad smart cover... However, less dangerous and more practical...
I found a 50% off accessory coupon code RE167858P. Treated myself to a Note II Case and a 9000MAH Battery Pack!!! $49.99 for a battery backup was a steal!!!
:highfive: :victory: :highfive:
Official accessories almost always very expensive. Companies have very high margins on them, because that's where people will look first to buy. So I would suggest to search for some alternatives from 3rd party companies.
Trident Aegis Case for Note 2
Trident Case makes a simple yet protective solution for the Note 2...it's called their Aegis series. It comes in like 5 differnt colors too. Their cases are very sturdy. It typically costs about $35 but they have a sale going on until Feb.18th so it ends up being only $26

Just ordered my (white 16GB) Note 10.1 yesterday! It is the refurb bundle deal from Best Buy. Can't wait til it gets here next week!
Anyway, I also have a white S3, and I was wondering if anyone has seen soft/rubbery silicone cases for both items? I've found black on Amazon:
gp/product/B008BVK4D8/ref=ox_sc_act_title_6?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A29A0RMW630ULS
gp/product/B009AJN4O6/ref=ox_sc_act_title_7?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A19R3BN6ZSO9A1
But, I'd really like hot pink.
I like this one for the S3:
gp/product/B00896956M/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_5?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1BKZVPG946QQG
But this is the only one I can find for the Note, and I doubt they'll be the same colour pink (girl problems, I realise!).

Thanks in advance!

Both are by Amzer Silicone Skin Jelly Case http://www.amzer.com/ you could contact them http://www.amzer.com/contact/ and ask them if they are the same exact color. The purple on there web site look to be exactly the same color on both s3 and note 10.1 cases so it may just be a lighting issue when the photos were taken for the pink ones. Call them, they have offices in the USA, UK and INDIA.
Here is a review of the Note 10.1 case http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rDLgKrG58o

Ordered them both! That was exactly what I was looking for. Found the phone case for pretty cheap on eBay, and it's a US seller too!

I have the amzer case above for my nexus 7. it's quite good but the protection is not the best. got the bobjgear one. much better protection. but I don't recommend it for note because of the big raised ring around bezel. might be in the way drawing or taking notes.amzer case is not so attractive..
I got the amzers. They do match and I like them so far.

Posted on G+ to Otterbox and this is what they responded.. Why would they not have a case planned for this tablet? So annoying..

Trident is the same way. I love the Aegis case on my S4 and had hoped they'd have one for this tablet. Sadly, no.

It's such a shame. This is a flagship tablet from Samsung. Why not, make it?
Hopefully at least one company makes us a decent ruggedized case for this thing

Agreed. I have a decent leather case now but I would love a more rugged case. Too many exposed parts with my current case.
I would definitely get one if otterbox release a similar one like they released for the original note 10.1.
How are you guys abusing your poor tabs that you need an Otterbox? They add so much bulk.
The only thing I can think of where I'd need one is if I was letting my 4 y.o nephew (AKA BamBam) play with it (think "throw") and there's no way in hell he's coming close to touching my $600 tablet.
Well i dont blame them , samsung tablets/devices , many tablets 10.1 but still not same size , 7.7 7 8 9 etc.
they should do as ipad/iphone , better spec , same size , at least for tablets
how hard it can be !!

Not abuse, just use someplace outside the home/office..
With a defender case on my nexus 7 I can just snap the front cover on and chuck it into my pack full of stuff and not worry about it at all, can't really say that for any lesser level of protection.
