Hello everyone!
Ebay and the local stores have hardly any accessory for the samsung galaxy note. Even if there are stores that do deal in accessories for this device, I have not heard about them.
I thought this would be a perfect platform to discuss about accessories for the note and help map the stores for people who don't have much idea (like me).
Inviting ideas and opinions, please.

As for me, I have:
- a decent P250 screen protector (not bad for the price) | Glossy | Finger print magnet | they did not have the matte one
- sad and boring looking jelly-case (does the job though). | P250 as well | Some reviewer was taking about some Samsung original (flip top) covers, but it was hardly any info as I could not find where he got it from.
Tomorrow I will check out the zagg invisible shield store at SM Megamall (I guess there is one). And will hit back to the topic with the pricing and quality.

Accesories for Note
I bought a decent screen protector in Greenhills for Php150. First I look around, there were many of them selling the same screen protector but the cheapest I could find of the same brand was Php150. Sorry I forgot the name. Matte and gloss available. Just look and ask around in Theater Mall GH, not in ViraMall GH as it is more expensive there.
Also I was able to find a realook screen protector matte or gloss (take your pick) also somewhere in Theater Mall GH, it comes with 2 screen protector, cleaning cloth, alcohol something (I guess for cleaning) and its around Php600-800. Looks legit. She even gave me a calling card of the GM of the company of realook here in Phil. She tried to sell me only one piece of the shield that is already open for Php600. Good thing I read at the back of the package that it comes with 2 pcs of shields. I got it down as low as 500 and she still agreed to sell it to me. I didn't bite.
She said it will be available soon so I will be back there next time. I think the one she tried to sell me was only a sample.
For casing in GH, just jellys. Try looking in the internet, there are already a lot of cases available and with high quality. They ship in the Philippines. I am just not sure about the feel that is why I am still waiting for legit cases to be available here so I can try it out first before buying.
For the flip cover, if you buy directly from Samsung or from any legit stores, the cover comes with it. At the back of the package, it writes 'Not for sale.'
the note and the accessories for it should've arrived on the same date. its really hard to protect a big phone/tablet from scratches and all.
waiting for otterbox to arrive, its taking too long
I have seen otterbox for iphone, it looks good. I will wait and see if it becomes available here in Phil for the note. I hope it arrives soon. I have been using the free flip cover, its good but it offers no protection for the sides.

Had gone to megamall today... saw the flip cover from samsung at wellcom (guess that's the name of the store). But it was free with a purchase of a new note (P34990). They were not selling it separately though, which was sad.
The samsung mobile store was crowded as hell. Wanted to check out a store unit of the note and compare it to mine (for the screen issues), but I could not (other people checking the unit). Not a single sales person paid attention to what I needed (a flip cover). Was disappointed, but that's howsamsung operates around the world, I guess.
Zagg Invisible shield was also there. The sales people over there were too busy to notice my presence (though I am 6ft tall). Did not get to know if they had something for the note. But I did look at the price (if available). P1000 for the back part. P800 for the screen. And P1500 for the whole unit. Is kinda expensive, but hey, protection comes at a premium.

Zagg Shield
Were you able to see if they are indeed selling Zagg Shield in Megamall?
What store? Inside the technohub?

Yes! There was a store in the Technohub! Any news on the Flip Covers for the device? Any one selling it in loose?
I passed by Zagg in Megamall last Friday with my Galaxy Note. The lady said she didn't have any shields yet for the note... so, i opted for a screen protector which cost me 200 pesos (at BSA International) and a stupid looking blue jelly case.
In ebay, there are some really nice leather cases... especially those that are made in Korea. A bit pricey though... ranging from $35 to $75... shipping not included.

May be that is why they were not paying attention to me! they might have seen me with a note in my hands and thought that they cant help me anyway...
About otter box, Nothing available as yet! this is getting pretty sad... screen issues doubled up with lack of accessories... Just a silly scratch guard and a stupid jelly case over here too!
i bought a capdase copy + gloss protector for just 150php..im still lurkin around for some leather flipcases..
ebay casing nad screen protectors
Hey guys!
I have been checking in ebay philippines with Location filtered to Worldwide.
There are a lot of sellers selling decent casing for galaxy note. There is the Black S line Silicone TPU Skin Case Cover for less than PhP200, also there is the aluminum cover that looks sleek selling for PhP1,500. For screen protectors, I haven't gone back to GH to check on the realook screen protectors but I'm sure by next year they already have that. I was there late November and they already have it opened that's why I didn't buy it.
Also, ebay (filtered worldwide) is selling flip covers but it is really expensive with price at least PhP2,000.
Thanks!
I have only seen matte screen protectors around. They make the white of the screen look sparkly and as such would like a clear protector instead.
To those guys who bought the clear/glossy screen protectors, what store/mall did you buy them from and how much did you guys pay for them?
How is the quality as well? Does it affect the screen that much?
And to those who have bought matte screen protectors, have you had any matte screen protector that did not affect the whiteness of the screen (did not make is sparkly)?
Thanks.

By any chance, do you have any pic of this? I'm interested. Where are you based? Thanks.
Btw, for others asking about the case with NOT FOR SALE tag. I was able to buy one for P800 at Cyberzone SM Cubao. (Yes, I'm that silly. Lol!) Forgot the name of the shop but its just near the escalator, beside Tylex.
Got an original samsung flip case for the note at GH for 800php. This however still leaves the sides unprotected so I had to use a jelly case, only I cut the sides to accommodate the flip part. It doesn't look ugly as it sounds, and does the job until we get invisishield for the Note.

Hey guys! Sorry if I am in the wrong thread, but I think this is where all the Note users in Phil are posting.
Quick question: Were you able to activate your Globe 3g on your Note? Please share the APN settings. I am having trouble connecting to 3g. I am a Globe prepaid user and my sim card is I think 4 to 5 years old.
Many thanks!

Does anyone know if the ZAGG invisibleSHIELD is available yet? I haven't been able to find it anywhere.
Is anyone else waiting for it to come out (or already have one)? I haven't used them before, but I thought I should (especially since I just paid $700+ for this phone ).
No but I bought a skinomi and they have a similar product with a great warranty.

I will follow to see how it go's , i think the backside is too rough, for it too stick.
I ordered skinomi (full body) clear back, from Amazon. It said "in stock" and to expect delivery between May 12-14.
On another note I ordered EZguardz screen protectors from Amazon. 5 for $2.00 with free shipping. They came in yesterday in a regular envelope from USPS. They look to be the same "urethane" material as zagg, bodyguardz, skinomi, etc. Instructions give two installation techniques, one with water and the other dry.
I cant wait for the bodyguardz version. The full body kit comes with 2 sets of backs and fronts. Best bang for the dollar and they are high quality.
Let's hope the skin has the correct dimensions.

I went away this weekend and my phone felt naked without a case and screen protector. I was so scared I'd damage it. Anyway, before I went away I emailed Zagg to ask if they did a shield for the S2.
While I was away I popped into CPW and they said they did have some Zagg shields, but had sold out.
When I got back I had an email from Zagg saying they didn't yet make a shield for the S2. Most confusing.

mate, would you mind advising me the best one from skinomi (or one you bought and satisfied)
I bought a Case-mate Gelli case from CPW shop yesterday. They also had the Zagg InvisibleShield in stock.
P.S. I have a Zagg InvisibleShield on my iPad, and the surface is a bit orange peely. Is it the same material on smaller devices?
P.P.S The Case-mate case came with a screen protector too, but it was completely wrong (looked like it was for a Galaxy S). The Gelli case is a good fit though.
Zagg just released their invisibleSHIELD. Can`t post the link to their page because of my few messages, go check their page.

Zagg Invisible Shield now available at ebay and their website. the front part, next to microphone seem not well designed, it's been cut like curve shape. Not happy with Zagg design but more better quality protector out there other than Zagg.

I've had great experience with Steinheil screen protectors by SGP in the past.
I ordered the Ultra Crystal for the s3 and just received it. See my attached photos.
Their presentation PLUS customer service touch is awesome.
They even used some sort of birthday wrapping for my package and got a HAND WRITTEN post it note from them.
I have never gotten anything like this from any other companies.
(Yes the package is bent, but thats from the mail - not their fault. Their packaging was actually pretty large and was lined with bubble wrap. I will just leave them under a dictionary for a bit and they will be fine. I wont get the phone until 27th anyway)
Where I bought from - http://www.ebay.ca/itm/SPIGEN-SGP-S...ccessories&hash=item3f17719a53#ht_3939wt_1163
Yeah their products are definitely top notch. Has anyone else pre-ordered an SGP Optics screen protector and heard anything about the dates yet?
I wish that they'll change their mind (workout the problems), and eventually release the Ultra Oleophobic too.
@Wond3r
Can you post a picture of your S3 after you apply the screen protector ?

SGP is top when it comes to screen protectors. Also, if you need free shipping on their products, CreTouch.com, an authorized sgp dealer offers free shipping.

Have tried some other well known brand including Martin Field,
I would like to say SGP screen protector simply the best on current market.
It's very good on touch sensitivity and sliding smoothness across it.
liamR,
I shared the same wish. Ultra Oleophobic was top on my list for easy to clean the finger prints and the oil.

I actually ordered it off ebay, but it was from the SGP usa seller. So still technically from them.
ya i love SPG product except i don't deal with the own website no more.. i ordered a one x screen protector and been asking for them to send me another one since the original ones were poorly designed and doesn't stick to the curve edge.. told me they sent me another one but don't have tracking numbers for it.. and won't send me another one and said if you want refund u can send as back your original but make sure you ship with tracking or there's no way they'll know they receive it or not... so ya i gave up dealing with their website and ordered my s3 from one of their resellers instead ~~
Love SGP screen protectors. Have they mentioned anything about making an actual glass protector like the glass.t?
I'll be ordering one of their flip cases also. Think they look better than the official flip case, and the Zenus flip cases look gaudy.
Finally. An amazing TPU case without the cheesy back design.

The quality of the plastic is superior. Once I bought one for my Galaxy Nexus I've got one for every phone since then. They are the best TPU brand for phones.
You won't regret it. It's cheap too!
My SII Skyrocket Diztronic case ended up being my favorite of the various cases I tried.
Not at all flashy. Nothing special about it.
It just "works" properly. And doesn't get beat up like cheaper cases do.
And I like that they are finally doing cutouts for BOTH the volume & power unlike on my last case.
I hate anything covering the power or volume buttons. Though some folks do like that.
I've used these cases for 2 years on Captivate, Infuse, Galaxy Nexus and Note. They're grippy, durable and fit perfectly. I just ordered one for my S3. Thanks for the heads-up.
I already have Rock Case, 4 Cruzerlite TPU cases... and a Leather pouch... Do I need/want one more....?
I have a Cruzelite...definitely sub par to the Diztronic cases I've had in the past and I'm sure it will be the same with the new one I have on the way.

Sorry for the delay in getting our S III cases up guys, I was out of town and had an employee put them up. Unfortunately she accidentally set the start selling date as July 6th so the pages never went live. I said didn't you realize we weren't getting any orders?! We sent inventory to Amazon on Friday so Prime shipping options should be available either Tuesday or Wednesday.
We did include a screen protector with this release made of Japanese film. When we first started including screen protectors we were using a Korean film, which is slightly better than Chinese but still had some rainbowing and purpling. These Japanese based ones are great, very good clarity. Even though including them almost doubles our costs we've kept our prices the same for the time being. Thanks everyone for your continued support!

The company resides and manufactures in America (Madison, WI, near me!!). The customer service is absolutely OUTSTANDING. You basically end up talking to a real person who is dead set on making sure you're satisfied.
And TPU, in general, is perfect for me. Thin, adds a little grip but doesn't stick in pockets.

cldn't agree more, they are indeed bad. Just ordered Diztronic for my S III . Loved it on my Nexus , was waiting for a week for it to be available in the meanwhile i thought i would try cruzerlite . Apart from the fit, i dint like the looks of it too, esp that i wanted something with a plain back matte finish . Diztronic was the perfect fit . Love it Love it!!!
Actually they are in Madison, but my EVO 4G LTE Diz TPU's specifically stated Manufactured in China.
I put them in a bowl of water and they don't sink so I'd guess they aren't full of lead.
The water did turn green and looked like antifreeze though (just kidding!)

It doesn't have a cutout for the camera, as in my opinion I'd rather have it covered so it's protected. If someone can show me an example of diminished picture quality because of it I may be swayed to make a cutout for it in the future. As far as going all the way to the edge of the glass, from what I understand it's not possible to do so on the GS III because of the way the glass tapers on the edges, so we made the screen protector in the same way as our One X screen protector. It essentially covers the flat part of the glass. You could probably go all the way to the edge with a wet adhesive based screen protector, but with a static type screen protector they would just peel up.

Great response. Its great to have good interraction with the manufacture and the end user. That makes for the best experience in both parties. Thank you.
Installed last night and very impressed. Had 3 small patches of spider web, 2 of which have gone on their own and the 3rd is hardly noticeable and I have a feeling this will go too.
There's a slight lift around the edges of the earpiece, I guess that's down to the glass on the phone not being completely flat.
I've had a Spigen tr and a Nillkin, neither of which went on as well as the Anker - although that could be just me having more practice!
Oleophobic coating is also working nicely, a few smears but overall very good indeed.
I'd definitely recommend one especially if you don't want to pay the premium for Spigen.

I wish this was available in Canada =(
Just put mine on yesterday and only ended up with one small bubble in the top left area of the phone and no spider webs (w00t w00t!)
I have it paired with a Spigen Slim Armor and it fits on JUST about right. Not sure if it's putting pressure on the glass screen but it looks like it fits perfectly. We'll see how long it lasts with it.
Texture on the glass screen is amazing. Neither I or my co-workers could feel any type of difference.
bought this and have small spiderweb at bottom.. still happy, very high quality.
hope sw goes away after time.
I agree, wish I could find these in canada. $15 bucks I'm willing to spend, $35 not so much.

I just installed mine tonight. I love it. Feels great and have no issues with the touch screen.
I could have lined up the protector a little better, but despite that I only have a couple a small air bubbles that should go away.
I highly recommend it! I just wish my cruzerlite case would still work with it. Oh well...

Shame about the cases not working well.. Spigen Hybrid is fine, not noticed any issues as yet.

No...Look to the title. This is the link to "Anker® Screen Protector for Google Nexus 5 [3 Pack] Xtreme Scratch Defender Ultra-Clear High-Response Premium with Lifetime Warranty"
The Pet film screenprotectors....
Oh that's weird.. The link came from my order confirmation from Amazon for the glass protector! I didn't read it, just assumed it would be correct.. I guess they aren't selling therm.
Edit: ha just noticed that the original link in the first post goes to the wrong item now too.. Ah well.

I'm wondering when they are selling them again. I'm doubting between Anker or Mime Ghost screen. Which one is better? Anker offers lifetime warranty though!
Not sure, I've not used the Mime yet.. Only this, the Spigen and the Nillkin. The Anker has been the best so far, it's still on my phone and not chipped, which is an improvement!

i got one recently about 2 weeks ago, and for some reason i got a huge bubble spider looking web about half inch on the bottom of my screen and about 2 small spider webs which i didnt mind too much. I contacted them through amazon since supposedly they're bubble "free". This is the reponse i got
"Thanks for the response and sorry for the issue.
Actually we have had this issue reported and we are currently investigating it with our suppliers as it seems to be a batch issue. A replacement as much as I would have liked to make, it's not a viable option.
May I ask a second chance to make things right by issuing a refund? We will further process once we get your consent."
Ever since then the screen protector is not available, i didnt want a refund because i liked the screen protector but that half inch bubble its getting on my nerves. So i went ahead and accepted the refund will be trying Nilkin i guess.
I got this screen protector a couple weeks ago, too, and I have a big bubble at the bottom that hasn't gone away. I just called and they said they have made some manufacturing changes to the protector which should (hopefully) resolve the bubble problems. However, the new batch won't be ready for 1-2 weeks.
I am going to wait for a new one. They will call me when they are ready to be shipped.
I wanted to give everyone a heads-up.. Just scored an Otterbox Defender for my Note 10.1 (2014) just over $51 otd
Walmart.com search for item 77-40507 priced at $47.17 (can't post outside link yet)
Several of my local stores (south Alabama) currently have a rack full in stock, maybe your local store does as well...
Make sure to buy online and deliver to store, as they are $89+ on the shelf and Walmart doesn't pricematch Walmart.com.
Awesome case, a bit heavy, but top-notch construction.

thanks. Looks pretty nice, but i'm more of a slim case fan. Also, fyi, this case does block the SD slot.

I am fond of slim cases as well, but I carry my Note with me daily at work so the extra protection is a decent trade-off, not to mention having something to 'grip'. I don't swap out SD cards, so the slot being covered is not an issue for me. When I need to move a bunch of files, I just plug into my desktop or use and OTG cable with a flash drive.
After a couple days of use, I can say that the Otterbox is exactly what I hoped it would be and am very happy with my purchase. I would not be a buyer at $90 because I can't justify paying 25% of the cost of my refurb tablet, but at $50.. I was all over it.
I was using a Roocase dual view leather case, and it is very nice for a book cover/stand style case, not exactly light, but sturdy and protective. I bought it as my second choice until the Otterbox became available.
Thanks for the heads-up on the SD slot, I know there are folks out there that swap cards.
NOTE: My one concern before I purchases was the built-in screen protector... Totally not an issue, you hardly know it is there, and the screen is still bright, beautiful, and sensitive. Writing feels different... the bare screen is very slick feeling, the Otterbox screen has much more friction.. I read somewhere that someone said it will eventually smooth out and settle somewhere in between, and that would be perfect.
Great find.
Thanks. I got the case and I love it.
ummm the walmart site says this case is, "for Samsung Galaxy Tab PRO 10.1" ... that is not the 2014 Edition.
y'all are saying it fits the 2014 Edition perfect though huh?
Rest assured
I got mine few days ago and it is perfect fit for note 10.1 2014 ed.
All ports line up correctly and also has s-pen slot.
It will work with tampered glasses but I took the built in screen protector from the case off as I didn't like the rainbow effect it created.
I hope it helped.

Was it difficult to remove the built in protector? I would also rather use tempered glass.

Not at all.
Just press it firmly at the corner in ward and it will start come apart.
I did, however, use bit of rubbing alcohol to make sure all adhesive are completely removed (just my OCD kicking in lol) to make sure there aren't any residue sticking to the glass.
I checked after a week of use and there weren't any residues
Cheers!

I can also confirm that this case works beautifully. I liked tempered glass so I did remove the original screen protector. Very easy to do. Used Goo-Gone to remove remaining adhesive.
The price at Walmart is down to $39.99. Now the package sticker in the front does say "Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro(10.1) AND Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition". It is fully compatible. Love the protection!!!! :victory:
Is it still easy to use?
Too bad they didn't make a commuter case for the Note 10.1 2014... This Defender seems a tad large. I feel like the wife is not going to like it...
It really isn't that bad, just adds weight

Haha you're right! I got it and we both love it actually. Not afraid to "use" the tablet in it.
Amazon is currently showing the black one at $32.50, and a couple of the other colors are less than $17.00.

Just purchased the grey/white model for $20.59, including next day shipping. Description does not state it is for the 2014 version, but several reviews indicate it is. Sweet!
Picked up a Grey and White Defender for $17 on Amazon. I just installed it, it's super bulky but the quality is amazing and the multi use stand is great.
Are the ones from Amazon authentic?

Of so I went from damn I got a good deal to damn it I got ripped off lol
The quality is certainly comparable to other Otterbox cases I have purchased. Looking through the other colors for this case, which were priced higher, I got the impression that grey/white may not be popular and is being phased out. Even if it is a fake Otterbox, which I don't believe it is, the case is still a bargain for $17.

The Grey and White one I received was authentic otterbox. My Note 10.1 is white so it looks great together.
I just ordered one online from Walmart for $39.01 (Amazon also has the same price).
How is this case?
