Yeah It sucks..
It is overlapping. . .
and it looks so ugly,, yuck. Standard Lather Flipcase is Batter than this.

It looks OK - not sure about how useful it would be in reality. Looks bulky. How is it 3 in 1? Secret compartment?

I have it. It in blue and black. 3 in one is a little over board. It's 2 in one unless they're including a screen guard. The actual case is good. But the nubs on the ends make me hate it for pocket use. It's strange. I only use it at home when I won't be pocketing it at all. That's that. I wouldn't recommend it. I'd rather have a case by case mate or otterbox or seidio. The tpu cases, you know which ones, the really cheap ones are the only ones I'd recommend if you don't want to pay a lot. I mean the case is Ok. But by lord is it bulky and the nubs are bothersome.

I have the black and white version....my fav atm.

Waiting for my all black one. Got it for $13. I hope it'll be a worthy protector for some future unprecedented phone drops.

which metal bumper will be the best?

Taurus
Sweet armor
I found the power and volume buttons are improved to help people to press in sweet armor bumper, but taurus gives more alternative colours
Any suggestion???

I am using the Taurus Version, and Yellow. Love it.
The contour of the case and and design, fits like a GLOVE!!

Do these things actually protect well? I feel like the impact would be transferred to the device more so than a TPU/silicone case. Sure they look nice, but I don't feel like they are practical.

When I got it, it was installed by a friend of mine, the in between the case and phone, have a silicone cushion build on the case. The phone do budge or move at all.
I guess the silicone cushion is made for shock absorption.
The Taurus looks nice but damn if they make that sweet one in Gunmetal gray I'm getting it!

Got all sorts of Color!! Including GUN Metal!! Its worth it, I do not feel the extra Weight to it!!
Just want to know, is this taurus case can be fitted with SGP TOugh Case's Silicon Protector? Anyone ever try it?
aren't metal cases really bad for your phone? i heard it heats it up like no other.

Something like Taurus isnt a full case but a bumper.
The battery cover isnt covered by metal, so it wont heat at all.

I meant if Sweet Armor comes in Gunmetal lol! I know Tauras has gunmetal . thanks tho!
Anyone know where you can order the sweet armor one online? I can't seem to find it on google at all, might be using the wrong search codes though but still. I do like the gunmetal taurus one as well.
Also, how do the buttons feel on the taurus once applied?
Hey guys,
I was wondering with the case on, can you still take off the back cover? like sometimes the phone crashes and if you cant then it would suck !!
Looking to purchase a sweet armor one from Gmarket.
http://english.gmarket.co.kr/challenge/neo_goods/goods.asp?goodscode=216196087
but does this fit a international Samsung Galaxy S2?
that makes sense. i suppose that'll look pretty good
are they really made with metal?
i prefer the yellow one. it looks so cute.
but the blue one looks so cool. just like a robot~~

kinda like that But you shouldnt drop your phone anyway. Its better to break a 20-30$ bumper than a 600$ phone
I have a taurus one at the moment, if I drop it and it break, ill just go with a walnut one. Im using it because it fit with the 3200-3500mA battery. If I could get an otterbox for extended battery I would, but they wont make one

Protective Rubber Gel Back Case for Galaxy Note

Hi All
So the hunt for a good Protective Rubber Gel Back Case for Note begins... similar to this one would be great!!

The minute I find one I'll buy it... I actually prefer getting the case even before I buy the Note.

I'm with you, this phone is too expensive to damage. I've been searching everyday and have yet to find anything. I usually prefer Ballistics' cases but I doubt they will be making one for this phone so it's back to the drawing board. I'm also wondering if zagg will be making a screen protector for this device. Don't know what I can expect with such a massive device. Maybe turn to the manufacturers of the best tablet cases... I'll post here when I find some cases.

I think the case of expansys is sleek. It's not making the note any thicker.
Hope they got variety of colors though..
samsung flipover
Samsung will come with a flipover, the back of the flipover will replace the original back of the note. So the note will only become a few mm thicker
I'm also looking to get the Samsung flipover cover when it becomes available. The only problem is the side of the Note remains unprotected, I'm thinking getting a gel case and trim off the left hand side so it will fit togther with the flipover cover.
Meanwhile, here is a really nice durable skin that is already available on Amazon I have used the Skinomi on my previous phones and it covers the phone nicely. All the cutouts are aligned and it barely feels like there is anything on it. Btw, the carbon fiber look makes it look really mean and clean. oh another thing, it's lifetime warranty too.

The carbon fibre film must just be 3m di-noc carbon fibre, can be had much cheaper on Ebay and you can just custom cut it to any device.

I always used to get hard crystal clear cases such as

for my phones.
But lately ive really liked the TPU gel case with stand, such as:

Which is just like the case in the OP really

Everyone who doesn't need the case right away, wait til piel frama comes out with a imagnum type of case. This case is expensive but it protects your device against any earthquake you throw at it. I have one for my hd2 and getting one for the note cause my hd2 is still like new. You can put in your e-mail and they'll let you know when it's there to buy. Here's the link

Cruzer Lite Androidified A2 Case review

So I just got my 3 new Cruzer lite cases and thought I would write a lil review on it and share with everyone. I have 2 of the previous Cruzer lite cases (Black & Clear) and loved them. So when I saw Cruzer had new cases coming, I just had to get them. I got the Green, Clear, and Black. This case is WAY better than the previous version. First off, it does not add any major bulk to the phone. It does add some, but very little. It has to add some or it wouldnt be able to protect the phone now would it? I compared it to a TPU case in the Verizon store and was thinner than that. Sorry, dont have make or model. I just ran in for a quick look at. The volume keys are cut out. It didnt bother me in the other case but just looks and feels much better now. The sides have a nice grip on them. Makes it nice when pulling out of my pockets. And last, the back. WOW o WOW. Love Andy the Android on the back. I am using the clear 1 at the moment. The case doesnt attract fingerprints bad at all. My wife hates Android as she had bad luck but when I showed her my new cases when I got home, she even said, thats pretty cool. As I have said before, I HATED cases before finding Cruzer Lite for my Nexus. I highly recommend you purchase 1, 2 or all of the colors Cruzer Lite offers.
For all colors available, go here: BEST CASES EVER
For those of you with headphones with big jacks, use this adapter so it will fit with the case on. Only $1.30 shipped!!

Ya this fits the GSM model too. Joel did an amazing job with this case.
Thanks for the write up. I plan on ordering a couple of these soon. I wish there was an all matte one though. The glossy ones seem to attract fingerprints more and are more slippery. I planned on ordering the black one too.
I'm gonna give these a shot either way though. I love that Andy is on the back.

If I had to guess I'd say they were molded from the LTE version. There is extra room when you fit this case on the GSM version.
If you were on the fence of getting this case, check out this...Front page of Droid-Life...you know it has to be good.

Yep.. I jumped the gun and bought this too immediately when i saw this case reviewed on droid-life.
I just ordered three, black, smoke, and blue. Im already having color remorse though, wishing i would've gone clear instead of black.

hmm thats certainly a much more attractive option.
is the back just clear plastic though? why is the upper right one larger, there's a microphone there isnt there?
the only things that put me off getting a case is that a) the device gets bigger and b) it no longer fits into docks etc.
Case is completely clear except for the sides. And great the hole on the top right is bigger because if the Mic. As far as adding bulk, the case not as thick as you might think. I've seen these cases on the iPhone and it looks really good. I like the fact that its clear and the look of the phone is retained. Personally I just use a case when I'm not home or at work.

It's anything but clear in the photos that I've seen. On most phones bumpers certainly will protect the phone if it's dropped on its back, but most phones don't have anywhere near as much curvature on the back of the case as the One has - a bumper would have to stick out a long way at the edge in order to protect the middle.

I bought a neo hybrid case for a different phone about a year ago and while it did make the phone look great, it didn't last very long. The case was two pieces... A tpu case and a plastic frame that went over that to secure the tpu to the device. I'm not sure if this case for the N5 works in the same way so I'm hesitant to buy it. What ended up happening to my old case is the plastic frame eventually broke and I'm hoping that won't be the case for this one. Can you tell me if this may be a problem with this one too?

my guess is that as long as you don't constantly take it off and on and put any unnecessary stress on the plastic frame, it should be fine and last at least a year.

They did fix it for the Galaxy S4 with a revision (the area around the port charger) since the plastic is thinnest there. This one... doesn't look like they attempted on preventing the same issue.
http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb41/*****bekewl/20130805_184654_zpsaa4da036.jpg
Again I want this case too. I love how it looks. But I already own 2 for the 2 Galaxy S4, one which had the area snapped around the port charger, and both had their paint finish starting to bubble and peel.
Looks great! I've got my Neo Hybrid case sitting on the counter in the packaging, waiting for my Nexus 5 to arrive Thursday. It's gonna be a long 3 days of waiting.

I find the case uncomfortable to hold. Edges dig into the hands a little. I received the fix from I case also and it fit perfect and follows the phone contours better. Just my opinion though.

Buttons feel good, it has that 'tick' to it. A bit sensitive on the power button side, but it doesn't accidently get pressed on. Just doesn't require a lot of effort to push it in.
I find the case uncomfortable to hold. Edges dig into the hands a little. I received the fix from I case also and it fit perfect and follows the phone contours better. Just my opinion though.

I wasn't sure what to say because this phone is bigger but yeah it doesn't offer much grip.
In terms of it holding up, I sure hope that it does, I saw that they had a 90-day warranty on the case so we'll see what happens. The back doesn't leave any fingerprints. I will say this for sure, the phone feels REALLY REALLY REALLY good without a case on.

I'll upload some even though I'm not OP. First impressions are that it looks really nice, adds more protection, doesn't offer any grip to the hand.

Damn, that looks great. Almost looks like no case is on there and those buttons, man do I want to push them.

If you had a Nexus 4 and the official LG bumper, the buttons on the case is pretty much very similar to that.
Made a short preview of the Neo Hybrid if you guys are interested:

Yeah, this is why I'm so excited about the Neo Hybrid with the silver edging. I love the look and feel of the official LG bumper on my nexus 4 and was hoping to replicate it with the Nexus 5. The Neo Hybrid is EXACTLY what I've been looking for.

Its exactly what it is and has more protection with the extra piece inside. From what I can tell (im charging the phone right now) it doesnt touch the outer piece or cause any pressure to it. Theres a gap between them (very minor but enough that it doesnt pressure it).

I'm not sure I am following. The back of the phone doesn't touch the inside backing of the case? Or are you saying the case button covers don't pressue the phone's buttons?
I can't decide, the black slate looks gun metal blue-ish thesilver looks very good too.
