[Q] Are there any cases that will fit in the samsung dock?

I have a SGP silke case and the samsung perforated one, but they wont fit the samsung dock. Are there ant ultra slim cases that will fit in the dock?
Not being able to just put the phone in the dock without taking of the case kind off spoils the whole purpose of using a dock...

I've been wondering the same thing. My Amazon order for the dock was recently cancelled due to no stock. As I've recently fitted a Case-Mate Tough Case I can't see me taking the two layers off each time I want to place the phone in the dock, so I don't think I'll be re-ordering. The dock looks so nice too.

Just got the official Samsung cover and nope, doesn't fit there either. Sucks badly

Unfortunately most mainstream docks don't support cases (from what I've seen, could be wrong). Last phone I had I actually ended up buying two docks and cutting a section out of it due to the case being heavy duty LOL. I tell ya it was a comfy fit for the phone. Quite hard to get out haha

I will be receiving another dock after a week or so. Maybe I have to try and modify it.
BUT I just noticed that I have the official Samsung pouch too and when having that back cover it just gets too big in the pocket and quite hard to get out from it.
Maybe I just go naked. Too bad because I like the feel of the back cover.

Why not just buy the Zenis dock? It fits my phone with casing on perfectly fine.

Because its ugly. The original dock is the only one that's good looking.

It should be really screen protector thickness to fit in that silly non-sync "original" dock. It's pretty for sure but definitely not enough space for any decent case...

Hi!
No, there is not any. Sorry.

I use dock with SGP case Ultra Silke and works OK!

Looks nice, but could we fold the cover flap fully to the back, in case we want to hold the tab in book reading mode

I just ordered one of those from amazon.
Bad thing is that for me, shipping was even more expensive (15$) than the cover itself (14$)...
I think you can fold the cover flap fully to the back, in case you want to hold the tab in book reading mode. Take a look at a video on youtube about this case, but ipad version. Search for "Review: Acase Slim Leather Folio Case with Stand for iPad 2".

doesn't look like it. there's no crease on the front cover like the ipad case i have.
i bought one earlier and it should be here next week. now i'll have a matching set for my ipad, gt7 and gt10.1.

Aw man, didn't see that. If only it is a mistake with the pictures and the cover we receive is OK... I think that crease helps you type on the best position. Well, you know better that you have the I pad version.

you can rest the bottom on the "latch" and put in a slightly upraised position. i just find it a little too bouncy when doing that while typing.

I have the same case for my 7" Galaxy Tab and am very happy with it. The quality is that of a much more expensive case. If I had not already bought another case I would be picking one of these up.

Unless I am seeing it wrong in the photos the problem with this case is that you have to constantly detach it from the BOTTOM HALF of the TAB to use it in a tilted position. This is how that $90 Zenus brand carbon fiber case I bought and returned worked. It was a real PITA plus it will eventually wear the paint off the tab.

i prefer that than the extra thickness (like belkin folio case). i haven't had any chipping or scratching on either of my other tablet's yet, but i did bend all those tabs a bit after getting them to make it easier to pull out. i even loosened the cover latches a bit too.

[Q] Is there a case that allows full access?

I'm looking for a case that will support the tab (folio style or the like) yet have the cut out or designed in a way to have access to the headphone jack and dock port.
I would really like to load movies onto a SD card and watch them via the USB host adapter. However, I will be doing this mostly in places that will need headphones. Also will need a case that supports the tab so I don't have to hold it. (Thanks Samsung, for this little inconvenience)
Anyone see anything that will make this possible?

I would like this as well. Most cases give headphone access but that port connector location kinda sucks. We almost need a case with a build in port connector that has a wire oud the side....perhaps detachable.

Ya.. I've been looking at cases for an hour and now resorted to looking on ebay.
That dock connector is seriously in a bad spot.
I could really care less about the case, but I care greatly about not having to hold the darn thing up with my hand while I'm using it. This includes while watching movies or showing someone pictures I just took.
Trying to add a support solution without adding the case would be an option...

I have the ACase Folio, which I am very happy with. When I want to use the Tab with something plugged into the dock connector, I fold the ACase cover all the way back and stand the Tab on the Rabbit Portable Stand and Holder, $10 on ebay, shipped, at http://cgi.ebay.com/Rabbit-Portable-Stand-and-Holder-iPad-Galaxy-Tablet-PC-/220772954466
The stand is just wide enough to accomodate the USB adapter (as well as the USB cable). Works great for me.

Thanks, I've seen the rabbit stand and it's the best stand of that type IMO. However it's just one more thing to carry. Add that to a bumpy plane ride and I'm still looking for a case that does it.
I just got the Belkin slim from Best Buyer, and it's going back.

The Rabbit Stand comes in two pieces, that you interlock to use (see first picture attached). When not using, one of the pieces fits flat into the other, and the two pieces fit flat into a seal-able baggie that comes with the stand (see second picture). Would take up minimal space in your carry on for traveling.
For bumpy plane rides, you could use velcro to attach the stand to the Tab or a Tab case.
(I have no connection to the Rabbit Stand or the ebay seller. It just happens to be the only good solution I have found to using the Tab in landscape mode with the USB adapter plugged in, and a good one at that.)

Oh yea baby ill give you full access. That what she said she really did.

Hey guys, I HIGHLY recommend this one from Amazon:
rooCASE Multi-Angle (Black) Leather Folio Case Cover for Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 Wi-Fi
I cant link to it yet, since this is my first post!!
I got it from Amazon last week after using the Belkin one for a few days. It's $43. but it's really worth the investment!!
The pouch is detachable from the Case itself so that it can stand portrait position AND landscape position. It attaches to the case by two large Velcro circles.
You can flip it around so that the charger faces out and the case closes while charging. Or you can leave it with the port on the bottom and move the Tab up (in landscape position) and the cord runs along the inside spine of the case while it charges.
Check out the specs and more details at Amazon.com
Executive Portfolio Leather Cover for Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7510
Built-In Stand for Comfortable Viewing at 45 Degree Angle. Detachable Inner Sleeve for Handheld Operation;
Business and ID Slots with Accessory Flap. Elastic Loop for Pen or Stylus. Dual Zipper for Easy Access.
Access to All Ports and Controls.
A MUST Have for all GALAXY Tab 10.1 Owners!! Available in Black, Magenta and Red. Search: rooCASE Galaxy Tab 10.1 Executive Portfolio
Reattaches by Velcro for Landscape / Portrait Viewing. (Galaxy Tab NOT Included)
(NOT Compatible with Galaxy Tab 7, 8.9 and 10.1v P7100 European Edition)
If you are concerned about thinness and slimness, this isnt for you. This REALLY makes you look like an Executive!!

I saw this. It's just too thick for my liking.
I could have dealt with it, but the fact that you're always going to have a keyboard sized front cover in front of the TAB was a deal killer.

At first, I thought about that, but then I quickly realized that I wasn't. I guess the Tab distracted me too much I can't ignore the extra protection & stability it provides though. My stylus doesn't roll too far either and is easy to find on my desk which is also black (and the lights are dimmed for a little "Table-
Hopefully someone will develop one for those users who prefer a slimmer form factor which has the functionality & accessibility of this one. The port cant be moved so they should definitely take a closer look when designing them. If they put it on the other side, then it would be waaayy to similar to that "other" device, which shall remain nameless.

RooCase is AWESOME from Amazon! so many different ways to set it up its impossible to not have your desired configuration. Unless like someone else said you bought this tab for the sole fact of it being thinner than the thing that soaks up my woman's monthly friend. Just goes to show you that Apple will suck you dry!

[Q] Capdase FlipJacket Protective Case?

Hi,
Has anyone tried this protective case from Capdase -- http://www.capdase.com/en/product5.php?cid=4&bid=83&mid=1280&pid=11836
Over here (in Mumbai, India), this and the Samsung one seem to be the only ones available. I have the latter already and its got problems, so am thinking of getting this one (costs about $40 at local prices).
Regards,
Seltaeb

Don't have it, but it looks nice with multiple view angles. I don't see a cutout for the connector, so I guess you charge with the case open.

I bought it. Only two drawbacks; one, as you mentioned you have to charge with the case open and secondly, it adds a fair bit of weight to the tablet.
But otherwise it's a nice cover:
- it's cheaper than the Samsung cover
- the orientation is better (buttons on the outer part)
- the multiple view angles are pretty neat
- the case feels solid and nice to hold (both landscape and portrait)
- actually offers protection compared to the Samsung one
One more issue actually, you cannot dock with the cover on which is probably true for all covers. But in this case [pun not intended] it is a bit more difficult to slide the tablet in and out (it grips completely all around the 4 sides of the tablet, not just the corners). So if you intend to use a dock frequently this case may not be the best idea.

Pyroskins 360 case you can charge the tab with the case closed. Peace of mind to have it protected while charging on the counter or desk.

That sounds perfect, but unfortunately that case doesn't seem to be available over here (in India).

Tab S2 cover like the Apple one

Hi! The Tab S2 is very thin and light, so it is a pity to loose those features with a big and heavy case.. I tried to find something like the Apple cover, but no success till now! any advise?!

There are many available on the market, but it also includes a back protection, you can also consider the official Samsung book cover.

Screen protector. That's all my S2 is going to wear!
I'm enjoying how light this tablet is and it's replaced my Microsoft surface 3 for daily use

The official Samsung book cover, whilst covering back, is still super thin. Is actually still thinner than an iPad air with its cover as above.

The cover sold as Samsung cover is just perfect, if you are looking to keep it thin.

AliExpress has several covers that are packaged just like Samsung Book covers in more colors. I ordered 2 and they seem like the Samsung originals. The snaps fit well. They are 14.30, with free China Post shipping.

Fake and over priced, they only cost about USD 3 each.

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/EJ-FT810UBEGUJ Best cover for Tab S2 I think

This is the case I have for mine. Quite thin and light. Has a nice smooth, soft touch feel too
http://www.amazon.ca/MoKo-Samsung-G...d=1447029556&sr=8-5&keywords=moko+tab+s2+case

I think the perfect cover was the Samsung Simple Cover which was released for the older Tab S - I can't post links yet so you'll have to Google it
It just clipped onto the notches at the back and protected the screen without adding bulk (I'm not worried about the back. It's the screen I want to protect when the tablet is in my bag etc). I'm hoping to get something like that for my Tab S2 when/if it becomes available

Samsung Tab S2 is amazing tablets with great features. Yes, Its very thin and light weight. The camera and sound are really amazing.

I have been looking for this type of cover (front only like the ipad or tab S) for a while too, no luck. Please post a link if you know of something similar.

The ones I got for my original Tab S were crap. The case itself felt like thin cheap cardboard and the one button kept coming undone. The only redeeming quality was the magnet was stronger. The magnet in the samsung one was beyond weak and never held up to any sort of gaming or movement and kept flattening out.
I ended up picking up the book case with the plastic snap in back. Adds a touch of thickness, but the magnet is stronger, the case feels more premium than the china two button ones, and it does provide more protection. Here it is.
But honestly, the book type covers are much more stable and solid when in the different stand modes than the ones where lid folds over itself into a triangle. But I guess it's more about what's important to you.

The roocase origami is the most beautiful and thinnest cases you can find

How is it thinner with a shell than the simple covers that utilize the snap in buttons? Seems like kind of a wash.

Hi Folks, before, i allways bought third-party covers for my tabs.......at the Tab S2 (SM-T815 LTE), i tried different ones, but they are all much too heavy, so i don`t want to make a ultra light weight Tabelet to a heavy duty one.........And, I´m also using a bluetooth keyboard most of time, if i had to wrote longer EMails and other things......so, this time i got the original samsung one :
http://www.samsung.com/at/consumer/mobile-devices/accessories/input/EJ-FT810MBEGDE
And, it`s really perfect!!! With the keyboard within, it`s a bit heavy, ok, but it`s ok for a complete device, with external keys. But! You can put the magnetic holded keyboard out to use it complete seperately (By the way with two different devices). And the cover only is very tight and light weight. So, the tab is covered, you have three possibilities to make it as a stand by the magnetic holders, and, the tab`s display goes out if you close the cover.
The keys are amazing! You have specialized Android keys, a mouse pad, and it works just perfect !!!!! And you can handle the keyboard complete seperatly, that`s what i really like............
BTW : I also bought the docking station , with 2 USB Ports, charging input, HDMI out and LAN connector.....this is awesome !!!! And, this is not connected like the other docking stations by putting the device directly on a micro usb pin! It have a short cable, so you can choose the direction for the tab by yourself..........and it works perfect also. LAN connection in office or at home is great, very fast. And you can keep all beeing connected, just put the tab in the stand, connect the cable and all is running. At the beginning, i have some Problems with apps like Chrome, they only accept a 3/4G or Wifi connection, but there is a app in playstore calles "true ethernet" that is simulating a 4G Connection for LAN, this app runs in the background, so you just have to install it...thats all, and you can use all apps with a ethernet connection also......think you need root for this app........
The Samsung keyboard cover is a bit more expensive than the other ones, but not so much, but if you try it, you will see, it`s really better to spend this more money, so you have a device and cover, that fits 100 percent for your device.....
