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.

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?

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.

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

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)

What do you guys think?

Thought on the official book cover case?

Does anyone who has owned this case for a bit have any opinion on it? How is the quality and such?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

No protection for the bottom part of the tablet. Closing the case does not ensure the screen is actually protected as the part the screen is covered with can slide off of it. Dumped it quickly.

I do agree with some of the comments above however it is my case of choice. I sold a quality noreve leather case and stuck with the original Samsung book cover case as my daily driver with a solution to full protection using another protective case along with it.

You compromise portability by using two of those together. Check the one that was made by Samsung for Galaxy Tab 10.1 with a flap over the bottom part of the device and see how you could avoid using two cases instead of one.

Thank you for your feedback! Where do you get the fancy pen? I really like the thin form of the case. Can see it really well in your pictures.

Yes indeed it was a compromise however the weight of the two together was roughly the same as the leather case I had so for me did not matter. This setup gives me reassuarnce that even after a hard drop, the tablet should be safe whilst transporting as it is whilst on the move, that I am more likely to drop it. Once it it is in the office or at home, it is kept on the desk or on my bed without much risk of dropping and then I have the lightest and practical cover for my specific needs.
I have also purchased another bag that has a secure slot for any 10" tablet with padding around it and is used when I need to carry more than just my tablet with me and similarly when I take the tablet out, it is usually at a desk, this also eliminates the need for me to carry the second housing.
At the time of me buying my case, the one with the securing flap was not available otherwise I probably would have purchased that one instead. Having said that, I still probably would have bought a secondary case for transporting as the Samsung ones are too thin for real protection but are the most practical in my opinion.
The moral here is, if you are considering buying one of these thin cases, it is advisable to consider a second protective case or buy a fully protective leather / pu case that is adequately padded with the downside of it making the tablet feel a lot heavier.

I currently have the White GALAXY Note 10.1, and I had a faux leather case (generic) from Amazon, and gave it about 2 months of use.
After that I decided to risk my money and bet on the official book cover (in white, as well).
I must say it is extremely durable and gorgeous. It has, somehow, a corporate look, it's extremely thin and the back is well protected.
The cover, on the insides, has a thin and soft veil-like texture, and it sort of acts as a screen cleaner, each time you lift up the front part of the cover. (only applies to naked screen).
All in all, it's durable, I have the white for 2 months now and it's still the same pristine white as it was when it came in the box.
It's resistant and the writing position just works (no Steve Jobs quote intended).
If you have doubts, well, I recommend it!

official Samsung case is good looking, nice design, ****y quality and protection - mine is getting bubless by time on margins - squeezing it does remove them but wtf?! I recommend looking for something else !

I have been using the case for abouta week. I also havea screen protector on the tablet.
pros:
Very light weight
Feels good
Offers several viewing angles, when it works. See cons
Cons:
Magnets are not very strong and don't always hold it in the more up upright position.
Does not positively close, so it can expose your screen in a bag or back pack..
That said, I've been trying other solutions and none seem quite right. I have a gel case thatI bought to bulk up the tab to fit in a cheap cardboard folio usb keyboard case I have left over from another tablet. Although not very elegant, I thinkI will use it for travel as I can use the keyboard on airplanes, it provides extra protection, andI can remove three tablet with the gel case for just walking around. Just need a sturdy OTG and this set up is still less expensive than the official Samsung cover, unless you snag one of the 34.00$ deals from Amazon.
I've also tried the BT keyboard cover. Someone just needs to make one, who had actually useda tablet. Put the same clips in both sides so you don't have one that interferes with the space bar, make the shift and cap keys smaller so the keys can geta bit bigger and fall under you fingers, providea deeper trough so the tab is steadier and the back rest can be redesigned to help with that. I'm sure ZAGG will figure it out.
Finally because of the cons of the Samsung, I am thinking of ordering one of the knock offs that has the flap that closes on the back like the one for the tab10. I think I've seen it where the while thing, flap included, rolls like the iPad cover.
Finally, Samsung needs to work out the magnet thing, offer a smart cover, which should at least be possible with the phone variants.
I guess the simple answer to you question is mixed feelings about the official cover.

I ordered two knockoffs for wife and I. When it gets in from China, official covers go back to Best Buy. They offer virtually no protection and are so not worth the $50 each I paid for two.

I have a question to book cover owners: is it possible to rest your wrist on the tablet while taking notes when book cover is in the position like on the attached screen shot? Or your hand is to heavy and you and the magnet will slip of the back?

I would say that that position is ideal for typing and not the best position for resting the palm on especially if you are heavy handed as it's not really designed for taking heavy loads.

That's not good to hear - that case was next on my shopping list :/
I'm looking for a case that could handle my wrist when taking notes in a position like on the previous screen shoot, probably I will take a look at this one: puro case unfortunately it looks like no one from xda forums is using this one :/

One thing I notice with this case is that it does not cover the camera. I really like that. If you pick it up please review it!

This case does in fact cover the camera when folded back.

I can confirm that yes when the case is folded the back camera is covered. In order to take a picture with back camera you would need to hold up the flap while pushing the on screen capture. Not as difficult as it sounds but you look stupid doing it. I mean if your taking pictures in public with your tablet you look like a tool already so it shouldn't bother you to much. Ill get a picture on here soon.

Any way to make Google Case autowake?

So I bought the expensive official Google folio case without doing my research. It doesn't auto wake/sleep which is pretty annoying, I take it there is just a magnet somewhere that does this. Anyone heard of anyone modifying it or putting a magnet in? Anyone know where the magnet is located so I can experiment?

are you sure you have the Folio case? because the Folio case is the 1 that has the wake/sleep function, which on mine works fine...

I'm sorry, I don't have the folio case. I have the regular case that looks like a book. Its really not worth the hefty price tag.
Fixed the title.

Just get some magnets and experiment, the sensor is on the bottom near the usb port. You could glue a few magnets on the outside of the case. Most folio's have 3 to 4 magnets...Get some nice chrome magnets at harbor freight tools or micheals or joann etc. Just avoid the neodymium, I hear those are too strong. theres also the plastic strip type magnets, but I haven't tested those. But it should be as easy as walking over to your frig and trying it out...

When held in portrait orientation, the sensor is on the left bezel near the bottom. I added a magnet to one of my Verso cases and it works perfectly.

what brand case? or is this official nexus 7 case?

Agreed - not worth $49.99
I bought one at Best Buy. It is Google Branded and stamped and says Nexus 7 2013 on the box.
I'm returning mine because once you fold it to watch the screen, it no longer lays flat and there is no way to close it. Plus, you can get what appear to be much better ones on Amazon for under $20. :fingers-crossed:

[Q](Solved)Poetic slimline case cause long term damage?

I just recently bought the poetic slimline case and as much as I love it, the magnetic field created by the magnets in the case is 500ut which the Android Sensor Box app is showing anything over 150ut is bad . Will this cause long term effects on the hardware with that strong of a field? I have no idea about any of this other than strong magnets are bad on any electronics. I just want to know if anyone who has used this case for a while if they have noticed any problems with their device? Thanks and Merry Christmas!
Edit: I did a little digging and i found some good stuff. First off a field of 500uT or 0.0005T is about the strength of an ordinary fridge magnet. Tech these days need to be within about 1.25T or 1350000uT (the strength of a magnet inside of an HDD) for any damage to occur. So I guess we can rest assured that the only things these magnets will do is confuse the sensor. Im sure no magnets in any case are that strong so I wouldn't worry about it anymore. Thanks everyone for the help!

I guess no one has had any issues then? Thanks for everything

I am noticing screen sensitivity issues when my tablet is laying flat and resting on the folded up cover... Hmm... Guess I'll take it off and if they go away it's the magnets.

The magnet shouldn't cause any problems.
Jfriend, the problem you ate experiencing is a problem with the touchscreen itself. There's a thread on it somewhere around here.

I'm using one of those Poetic cases with no issues.
The Google Play Store is also selling their Folio cases for the Nexus 7
with the Wake / Sleep feature.
They probably wouldn't be selling it if they thought the magnets would be a problem.

I would agree with you but with the 2013 nexus they moved it to the lower left side of the device. Its on the opposite side of the battery. The magnet inside the device doesn't even get picked up by the sensor so its placed in a spot where it wont do any harm. The issue I'm talking about are the 2 magnets that hold the case shut. I dont see any on the official folio. They are strong magnets and they work well for their purpose. Im just curious what kind of effects this has on the device long term. I guess ill find out eventually if its harmful lol.

I've also been using a pouch with a strong magnetic closure on my cellphones for the past few years. Never had any problems.

I've been experiencing exactly the same thing. I also have a case with magnetic parts on it, it's a blue-tooth keyboard case and there are 4 small magnets that hold the keyboard in place and 1 on the back that hold the stand in place.
When I have the tablet flat or on the stand I quite often have problems with touchscreen response, however if i pick the tablet up and hold it vertically it's fine. I am as yet undecided if it is the case or the tablet itself. I have heard of screen issues with the N7. but primarily the issues seem to be multitouch and ghost touch related.
I did have a case for my Galaxy Note that has a strong magnetic clasp and that did effect the screen, once I dumped the case for a non magnetic one it was fine.
It stands to reason that magnetic fields will effect electronic devices given their operation and the fact that any electrical current creates a magnetic field and two opposing fields... well we've all done the reverse poles trick with magnets haven't we.

Just got a Nexus 7 and a Poetic Slimline case for Christmas.
I don't know about long term issues, but I do know it does affect the functionality of some apps. SkEye is nearly unusable with the case on.

Damage Risk with using a cover with magnets?

Are there any risks attached to using covers with magnets in them?
Just bought a cheap knock of of the origami case , and noticed two small but powerful magnets. Haven't noticed anything yet ( had it a few days) pen accuracy is still great.
On the other hand I'd rather not find out in a few days that I have managed to do permanent damage to the note's digitizer or something to that effect?
Heard stories regarding other cases with magnets and potential long term risks.
Anyone?

Even the official Samsung case has strong magnets. I've been reading the forums since December and nobody has reported long term damage as a result of a cheap case. If yours has an issue, you'll notice it fairly soon (screen refusing to sleep, auto brightness issues, areas of the screen that are difficult to write on etc.) First thing to try when something goes wonky is remove the case and see if it makes a difference. If you don't notice anything amiss, pat yourself on the back for finding a cheap case that works just as well as an expensive one.

There is no risk.
Tablets are designed to work with magnet covers.

I have an orginal samsung cover, and have used it for 6 months now with no problems

Knock off Original Book cover.
I have this knock off of the original book cover ($5!), The thing is it has eight magnets! Four on the lid and Four on the bacck so it can become a stand.
It is harmful or not? Shall I use it? It does have good quality.

Link to where you bought it?
As for mine, been using it for a few weeks with , at least as far as I can see, no issues
