I got a Belkin Portfolio Case for 10.06 @ Target

It's on the clearance rack in the 28th St, Grand Rapids, MI store. There was one left after I got mine. Somebody might find this useful...

Good Luck
I'd post a pic of the receipt but it got soaked on the condensation from my lemonade bottle. BTW, Simply Lemonade is also on sale.

How do you find the case? I've been lusting over this and $10 is so ridiculously cheap! I live in Australia and I can't find any of these here. It's $40 on Amazon, but they won't ship here. Even if they did, the shipping would probably cost more than the case itself

Unfortunately, the deal is very YMMV as I can only confirm it to be working at one specific Target retail store. Regarding the case itself, I find it slightly underwhelming as I must undo the Velcro flap in order to use it with my docks (even after swapping for the case adapter). My concern is that by opening the flap so frequently (3-4 times per day) it will wear out.
For US$10-$20, it might be worthwhile but it lacks a closure and it is not not dock-friendly so I would not recommend it for above US$20.
EDIT: The case also lacks 2 articulation points shown in the photos. If it was really capable of all of those different bends, it would never be able to hold the Xoom up.

Went to one of my local Target stores and it was regular price still.

how does it hold the zoom in? it looks like a glove frame holds the xoom in.

It has a Velcro flap that covers the bottom. It has cut touts for all of the connectors but it adds too much thickness to use it with the cradles (even with the case adapter) unless you open the flap.
This video shows the flap: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etm0UFI5Dj8

I got mine for $7.48, which just means the one i purchased had been on clearance longer at that particular store.

I'm finding I like this case enough that I should have bought both that my store had so I could have a spare when I wear this one out.

If anyone has an extra/spare/unwanted belkin portfolio case, I'd very much appreciate it if you could let me know.

Boxwave Accessories now released for 10.1

http://www.boxwave.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-101-p7510-accessories/bwdd/zzzk
I have been buying BoxWave ClearTouch Crystal screen protectors for all of my devices for years, and they are PERFECT.
No solutions, no bubbles, 100% clear, you can clean and re-use them, they are static-cling, they fit perfect, very scratch resistant, etc..
I have these on my Canon 5D MkII camera, my Droid X, and other things.
My Droid X has had the same one on for over a year now when I first got it and it is in near-perfect condition. No I am not a salesperson for BoxWave lol.
Although there are some accessories out now for the 10.1, the screen protectors are not yet. I emailed them and they said they will be soon though.
That FlexSuit case looks cool but I think it's similar to those really cheap ones on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200624247046&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

I doubt it's the same. I am sure the BoxWave one is better quality and that the design is slightly different as they usually have higher-quality products. Similar though, yes...

Didn't see it anywhere on the site but do you know if they make screen protectors for it. If you say they are good and aren't to crazy on price, i'd be interested in picking one up.

Yeah they said it will be released soon. Ill be gettin one.

I just bought the armor suit in the mean time. When you get it post a review up on how you like. I'd like to know how it looks and feels.

Since all of the information here has helped me out substantially since receiving my tablet, I wanted to let everyone know what is happening with Boxwave.
I ordered "FlexSuit , Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 P7510, Smoke Grey - Qty: 2" for the I/O model (for a colleague and myself). The package took several days to ship and about 3 weeks to arrive in Vancouver, Canada. The package contained 2 x smoke flexsuits for the Xoom. Upon notifying Boxwave, I was told that it would be corrected soon by cross ship and Boxwave would reimburse me up to $5 USD since I would have to pay for the Xoom cases to be returned. I told them it was unlikely I could return these items for that little from Vancouver, and requested that they send a preauthorized envelope. The support person got back to me a couple of days later letting me know that the Galaxy Tab 10.1 flexsuits had been discontinued and that was the source of the confusion, and said preauthorized shipping from Canada was not a possibility. They could now authorize more than $5 for the shipment.
Anyway, I will have to return the shipment out of my own pocket to have any chance of a refund.

Does anyone know if the antiglare screen protector dulls the screen's color or output? I have the Invisible Shield, but has its corners messed up from the media dock. It also seems to pick up little "dimples" over time. For some reason, my Evo 4G kept getting the same dimples over time and done know what causes it.

Book Cover Case Deals?

I'm trying to find a decent deal on an official white Samsung book cover case. I tried ebay, but no luck. I'd rather it be an official Samsung one because I've seen that the knockoffs interfere with the S-Pen. So, where can I get a decent deal? Thanks in advance.

I got a grey one from newegg for 39.99

How do they interfere with the spen?
I got one from eBay, a knock off but is identical to the overpriced Samsung one (probably made in the same factory as the "official" one) for 11 quid. The official one I got from amazon, paid 29 quid for it. But that was a while back. Maybe it depends which ebay seller you use?
Looking at them now, I use a different cover btw, I can't tell which is which lol.

There is a white one listed on Amazon for $36.82, sold by Amazon but listed as used:
Samsung Electronics Book Cover for Galaxy Note 10.1-Inch, White (EFC-1G2NWECXAR)
If I didn't already have mine I'd probably buy it. Just FYI.

This would only be the case for cases that put a magnetic closure to jump on board with the them of iPad cases. I have never had on, so this is just here-say i saw in another XDA thread. Maybe another cause would be a knock-off case that was too tight, and pressured the tablet too much. Honestly i have nothing to speak from, as far a personal experience with these case issues. I am using a Blason brand black case that i got off of amazon for around $15. Only complaint, is that the edge flap the secures to top of the tablet to close the case, has gotten a bendy crease in it, that is only a minor inconvenience sometimes.

I have just received my Samsung Galaxy Note 10'1 case from amazon.co.uk, it was through the UK site but was a german company so took over a week to arrive but only £31.37, the company web site is www.avides.com, I am delighted with the case, I had a pleather one bought for about £15, this one washes it away, you can access the whole screen, there is a special slot for head phone jack so you don't have to removes to flip cover upward and you have easy access to pen. Jim

My fiancée got me a leather case that is actually for the Tab 2, so I tried cutting out a hole for my S-pen, this however, made the corner very weak and unable to hold that corner of the tablet in place.
It is still usable, but I'm looking for a lightweight case, similar to the official ipad cases with the magnetic screen cover. Where can I get something like this, cheap?

Newegg has a return in white for $31.99 + shipping or can order a new one for $39.99 with free shipping .......... check it out.

I purchased a gray one a month ago or so and it did not look like it was opened.
.

I can confirm that the knockoff I bought does interfere with the S-Pen. There are 6 circular magnets that run across about 2/3 down from the top. When I write in this area the sensitivity and accuracy are messed up but for some reason it's worse at the right side. Problem goes away as soon as I remove the case. I got mine from ebay.

I bought the official one from newegg and it also interferes with the screen at times. I write on this thing ALOT, at least 5 hours a day, so I notice it for sure. Every now and then it will take more pressure to write on top of the magnets. If i take the case off and put it back on everything is fine. I find myself taking the case off and on alot.

Serious lack of cases...

Why is it that there is no real good selection of cases...I can't even find where to buy the asus premium case...why release something with no protection?
**** I went to best buy today and they had a whole rack for the tab 3...nothing for new nexus 7. All the cases that seem to look decent are not even available for the next week or so. I just am at a loss...I just want a nice flip case that ideally has a magnet that doesnt screw up the screen and actually fits the tablet...I'd even shell out decent money...

They don't want to give case makers the heads up on the design because leaks would be instantaneous, but I think if Google was smart they'd manufacture their own case to have ready at retail right alongside the tablet. It makes their brand look 2nd rate when people like us who are fans of their product can't buy things to protect it. Asus has the travel case but that thing is a joke.

The best place to find cases now is at Amazon.
Most of them come from China, but they will do the job, at least in the interim.
They're typically under $15 with shipping.
I got this one for $5
http://www.amazon.com/Fintie-Classi...id=1376113513&sr=8-1&keywords=nexus+7+2+cases
It's nothing special, but it will protect the device...even has a magnetic cover.
The Asus premium case hasn't been released yet, but it's supposed to be $40 when it becomes available in September.
More and more options are appearing daily.

I mean, I understand that other manufactures dont have access. However, google and asus should...the travel case is ridiculous...

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
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08B13QH17/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_VS8tFbAFSX5CB
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.
https://www.urbanarmorgear.com/products/civilian-series-galaxy-fold2-case

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.
