Body Guard carbon fiber protection - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories

So I know every one is into getting cases for theres as am I but in addition to that I highly recommend getting a Bodygaurdz.com sticker system that comes included with a AWESOME screen protector as well. The case is great but when its out of the case its not protected. Just got mine a few days ago and I'm so thrilled! I'm not afraid of those little scratches when setting it down on tables or the scratches if it slides at all on any surface. Not only that but the texture of the carbon fiber one I got makes it so much less slippery and such s better grip for ease of use while holding. Especially if you get lazy like me and use it in bed haha. This is the one I got. There ****ing sexy and great protection out of your case. http://www.bodyguardz.com/armor-carbon-fiber-samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1.html

Ordered. Thanks for the tip - I like the bookcase but am starting to wish I could just hold the tab on its own as the case makes it handle like a far heavier tablet.

I just bought a tab 10.1 today for $350 and it already had that on it .

Zomg!! That looks so awesome!!! If only it comes in blue... -.-

this looks really good, I already have the official Sammy bookcase cover and like Jake suggested it makes the tab heavier than I wish it was. I please report back if you can use this with the bookcase cover, which I still would like to use for longer travels. Thanks i

I have the Skinomi carbon fibre look skin, same as the Body Guard. Works fine in the Samsung Book Case cover, but I only applied it to the gray portion on the back, did not use the pieces for the area around the camera, nor the sides.
If you do use the side pieces, expect some potential wear issues from the Book Case's corner clips on the vinyl skin.

I just ordered the SGP Carbon Skin Guard, quite the same as this one but $10 cheaper.

I ended up with several specks of dust under the screen front so have taken off - will it retain the stickiness if I clean it eg with soap and water to try another application? Back is fabulous.

I'm glad I clicked on this post before posting my own...
I needed a temporary case while I wait for OtterBox to get off their duffs! The Note by itself is pretty thin and slippery for my hands and the back cover was already started to scuff up.
I checked Amazon.com, since I get free shipping through them, and saw the BoxWave DuoSuit case for the Note (which looks exactly like the one posted here, but in black).
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000H13M2K/
It's a pretty nice case for the money, fit is nice and tight and it definitely makes it more grippy with a little knurled texture on the sides. Definitely not too bulky, I actually prefer it to the naked Note feel. Cut outs are ample so it protects without getting in the way of everything. The power and volume buttons are covered with wide rubber bumpers which is perfect for me because the buttons were too easy to press before. Now it only responds to intentional presses.
Obviously, this won't fit in the dock so it will come off when I put it in my dock at night, but that just gives me a chance to clean the inside of the case and keep it from collecting fluff.
I also dropped the phone just a couple minutes putting on the case and it made a dull padded thud, which I prefer to the clackle of unprotected phone hitting the floor. No notable damage.
I'm pretty happy for a $10 case. It's even almost kind of nice looking (I'm extremely picky).
I have this in black color
I have this case in black and white, and although a very nice case overall, I'm hating it due to it being a lint magnet, the whole screen after a day in my pocket is just covered in felt and dust, especially around the edges of the screen.
I've now ordered a hard plastic case..so disappointed

Trident Aegis Case - Pics and Brief Comments

Received my Trident Aegis case today. Went with the bright green (which I so far prefer to the darker green which they previously used, I had a Cyclops case in this color on my HTC Glacier.)
One gripe is, so far, the open space surrounding the camera on the back of the case. This is an odd decision. Not a big deal to me, though; but still worth mentioning.
The biggest gripe, though, is that the phone is not at all easy to actually get into the case. I'm not saying that it doesn't fit. The problem is that you first place the phone into the colored, gel surrounding piece. You then have to fit these piece (and its protruding buttons) into the very hard and rigid black/grey plastic piece. It's kind of hard to do this since the gel-covered buttons have to fit into the holes on the device, and I ended up hitting the power button over and over again, and botting into recovery because one of the volume rockers was held down.
My Cyclops case, for the Glacier, was designed in the opposite way. The phone first fit into two hard pieces (a front and back piece, basically), and then a black rubber surrounding piece went around the plastic itself. This was really easy to take the phone out of and place it back within.
I know people will ask...I'd say the phone doesn't add too much in the way of size to the already very large S-II, but the only comparison I have is the D30. I do not have the Incipio or Seideio cases to compare.
My aegis case for my vibrant was the same. Its how they all are in terms of getting it on. Waiting for mine to get for the sgs2
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
my main concern is how well it protects but a close second on how hard it is to get out of the pocket. if im going to spend to cash to get something that would work well i want it to be what i want. any opinions?
So overall how do you feel about the case?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I'd say pocket fitment is mostly contingent upon the pocket. I have been putting the SII + Trident case in the front pocket of shirts and it only sticks out a small bit. It fits in my jeans pockets, but I wear my jeans a bit baggy. It won't fit in the pockets of my dressier slacks. So, I find it easy to get out of most pockets. My Glacier + Trident was actually probably a bit more difficult due to the ribbed silicone surround. The case for the S II doesn't have much to snag on. Keep in mind though, that the Glacier + Case was a lot thicker, front screen to back battery cover, than the S II is. This definitely had something to do with it as well.
Overall I am pleased with the case. I like the color options, shape, and structural design of the case. While I did find the previous "Cyclops" style case that I had for my Glacier to be easier to take off and on, this new case seems, at least at first glance, to provide equal or better protection while also being easier to fit in pockets.
One footnote: I'm using this case along with a Zagg wet application invisible shield and I'm not having any issues with the corners peeling.

I also noticed that the plastic doesn't hold/secure the rubber on the bottom of the phone, is it easy for the bottom corners to come off say when you're putting it in or pulling it out of your pockets?

The screen protector does look cheap. I'm not using it so I didn't really pay much attention to it. The hard case does not wrap around the bottom, so it is just the gel casing. But I haven't had any issues with the case coming off when putting the phone in my pocket
I really wish otter would make a defender case for this phone! I loved it on my iPhone

I paid $22 with free shipping using the promo code holiday2011.
And yes, I got it from the tridenteer site.
i just ordered one... ill compare and take pictures comparing it to my incipio silicrylic case when i get the trident
I put the screen protector on. Used a wet install. Looks great so far. Smooth feel and very clear. It is dark outside right now, so I will report back tomorrow during the day. Looks really good in the house. Just a few air bubbles settling. I can tell they will go away though.
Screen protector is great. Really clear in light and dark. I'm sure there's better quality out there but for free its great. Also I have the green case. Get compliments like crazy about this case. Very high quality and looks pretty sick. Great protection. Great looks. Great case.
FYI the Incipio case has the slight gap around the camera as well.
The only issue I have seen, been using the case about a week, is the flap that covers the charging port doesn't want to stay closed. It doesn't hang down enough to cause problems really but isn't a tight fit and would def let dust in. Other than this small issue the case works great.

Just got mine today (just showed up in the mail 10 min ago actually), is a direct replacement to the OEM cover. Has a nice rubberized feel on the back and if you find the right auction it is actually pebble blue with the rubbery carbon-fibre back..
The fit is perfect.. I suspect the chrome plastic letters may fall out.. have heard of people having that issue but looks good without them anyhow..
the rubberized back makes the phone easier to hold on and it won't stuff like the oem back.. Don't think I am going to put a case on this phone.. the backs are cheap enough and once I get the Steinheil Curved Crystal screen cover, it will be more than protected enough..

Diztronic TPU case

Can anyone recommend this case? I've been searching like mad for the perfect case to fit my requirements, and been having a hard time. I need a case:
Protects phone
Easily removable
Able to slip into/ carry in a side
Leather holster
Must have good grip!
I need good grip as I'm a mechanic
and dirty/greasy hands makes for
more potential dropping. The diztronic case appears to fit my needs, but would appreciate some feedback! Thanks!

I have the diztronic tpu case and i love it. It fits better than any other case i've used for this phone. Slips in and out easily. Doesn't add much to the thickness of the phone. Only recommendation - get it in black. I had it in clear and in smoke, both yellowed in a matter of weeks. I have a black one now and it is awesome! They're pretty cheap too, I got mine on amazon. Think it was like 10 bucks or something...
Sounds good..What about fitting into a side belt holster? Will the case meterial catch too much? I'd like to avoid having to fight getting the phone in and out. Thanks man! For 10 bucks I should prob just try it out lol..

The case doesn't add much thickness to the phone at all. You can get the case in matte back finish or glossy back finish. I've always gotten the matte finish, because it looks nice, slides easily, but still provides excellent grip. I've read reviews that the glossy finishes attract dust, and I would imagine the glossy finish one would get caught more easily in your belt holster. I would definitely recommend the matte back black case. I doubt you will be disappointed.
I can't post links because i'm still "new member" (i don't really post a lot), but if you search amazon for B005YEFM8M then you will see the case I am talking about. Currently going for $9.90.
Thanks for the info! I went ahead and ordered the matte black case. I'll come back here and review after I get it.

I have the clear one, and I like it but it has damaged my phone's frame. I think its because it doesn't fit 100% perfectly so dust accumulated in between the frame and the case, thus scratching the frame.
So just make sure you clean it often.

Yea, same thing happened to mine, but as long as you keep a case on it, you can't even tell.
Got the case today and here are my thoughts: Fit and finish is good. My biggest gripe is the sides. Its fairly easy to move the sides away from the phone, and this is especially noticed when pulling the phone out of the side holster. Not a deal breaker, but something to be aware of.
I was anticipating a bit more grip, but its not bad. For protection, I think it should do the job, although dropping the phone from chest height to concrete is something that concerns me. Hopefully I won't have to find out lol. I need a larger side holster as its a bit too tight, and retrieving the phone should be easier. I'll stick with this case for now, but still open to other options.
I still feel like I need just a tiny bit more bulk and grip, to be perfect.

Best looking case with lip?

Currently the search function is down, but basically I am looking for a case for my new One. I love the build quality and aesthetics of the phone, but sadly it gives me a heart attack leaving it naked, I feel like I handle it like a live bomb haha. I never drop my phone, so drop protection isn't important to me, but what IS important to me is scratch protection on this aluminum body, the glass and camera, so I am looking for the best aesthetically looking option to provide scratch protection and a lip on the front so the phone can be placed face down or on hard surfaces without a worry.
I don't want to add too much bulk to the phone, so the cases I am considering are the KLD Oscar 2: http://www.amazon.com/Oscar-Style-S...d=1383336670&sr=1-1&keywords=htc+one+case+kld
...and the Diztronic TPU case: http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Mat...8&qid=1383334154&sr=1-2&keywords=htc+one+case
I prefer TPU cases, but I hate the camera cut out for the Diztronic one, even though they make great products. I also don't want a white or clear case because I know they normally discolor after a while.
So please help with suggestions that are:
-Nice aesthetic look and feel
-Not very bulky
-dark color (only because I want to avoid the discoloration issues)
-soft or matte material
-provides face down and camera table protection/scratch protection
-Under $20
I have also have heard many reports of the Double Dip cases scratching phones, so even though I like some of the black alternative options, I don't really want to risk it.
I'm using a fosmon dura fro m7 case from amazon in blue, it is cheap, looks pretty good (have received some compliments) works well enough and doesn't show discoloration like the previous clear tpu case I had.
Try the Poetic case.
I have the black one and it keeps the phone slim. However, the top and bottom edges are relatively exposed.

i use the diztronic in black. the smooth rubber has a nice feel in my hands, slides easily in and out of jeans and doesn't add a lot of bulk. the camera cutout doesnt bother me, i prefer it to some easily scratched piece of plexi or w/e.
dropped my phone on brick stairs last week. it bounced around and landed face down, not a mark on the screen. for $10, i dont think i could be happier.

I quite like the cruzerlite cases. They are very high quality and have very nice designs. imo, their TPU cases are the best TPU cases on the market (I like TPU cases)
http://www.cruzerlite.com/cases/htc/one
I know you said no clear tpu cases but I really am liking this one so far, the cimo grip. I figure that for $10 I can afford to buy another in a few months if it discolors. They do come in other colors but I really like to be able to see the back of the phone, at least on a phone this nice. I like the fact that all of the edges are protected. The only thing I do not like so far is that the volume is almost impossible to change via the side buttons. The case covers the volume and you're trying to push through the case. Not a huge deal breaker as I rarely change the volume but it's a little annoying. I may take a knife and cut out the plastic. Again, it's cheap enough to play around with. If I ruin it I can buy another....

I might be getting slow in my old age but I realized the joke while browsing different threads 5 minutes later
I ended up getting a Meifeng (Bear Motion) in grey off eBay. I picked it up over the Amazon bear motion models simply because I thought the logo was nicer looking on the case and it was $7.50 with free shipping vs around $12 without Amazon prime. I LOVE how it looks (rear cutouts are perfect) and the texture is great. I recommend it for fellow sure handed users.
Lip is almost non-existent and I think the volume button is tough to press and the SIM cutout unnecessary, but the look and texture is sooo primo, looks like it the phone was meant to look like that. I think I'm going to pick up another brand case also though. I value the clean, premium look and feel, so some of these suggestions with gaudy logos or designs (including my man the little android guy) aren't necessarily for me.
The poetic palettes seem nice, I didn't even know colors were available. Here are the rest I'm considering.
-Nillkin Shield
-Poetic Palette
-KLD Oscar 2
-Diztronic or Hyperion TPU
