Do you have a link or it?
I haven't made 8 posts so I cannot add links...but if you google the name it will come up.
Looks pretty nice, but I'm really looking for something very minimalistic and light. Probably the best case out now though.

I just put in my order & projected arrival date of Jul 5-7.
The case is only 5.8 ounces so that is really light..plus I like how it has the two stand positions.
That RooCase is built exactly like the Belkin case, and for nearly half the price. I should have ordered this. I may order it and return my belkin case.
I kind of wanted that one, but I needed something with a zipper to keep dust and stuff off the tab. I bought the roocase executive portfolio, and it's very nice quality, so I would recommend a roocase
I dont like the picture frame style flap on the back.

Neither do I. I fear it will become "floppy" after some time. I'd like a slim leather case over a plastic one

The flap /back of the case each have magnets, so it doesn't flap at all. It's completely flush with the case, kind of recessed, when not in use.

Oh cool! That's nice to know
I ordered a different rooCase one (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0050IU2N2/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=A2IHZFOHOQ0WG8) and it just arrived today. Seems very nice, good construction quality and the velcro works. I don't have my tab at work so I don't know what the fit is like, but it looks accurate. Will find out tonight!

I've seen that one too, but I'm not a fan of the velcro. Is it real leather or PU?
Pretty sure it's real leather - at least no strange smells.
Fit is good, I really like it for carrying around protection and using as a stand. Is a bit bulky for everyday sit-on-the-couch use. I am extremely offended by the PC Micro company though - they sent an email asking for a good review in return for a $2 refund. Not cool!
I got my Roocase today. It is very nice. It fits great. Only thing I notice is when you have it down at the low angle the tablet is upside down....which really doesn't matter since the screen flips
i ordered this last week and it was backordered. I am finally getting it tomorrow. Ofcourse I will post pictures and review when I get it.

Yep I got mine this week and I like it a lot. I'd recommend it. Quality is good and stands up / angles towards you pretty well. It's similar to the Apple iPad folding case but fold is a little more thick and sturdy.
I just got a Samsung Galaxy 10.1 and I will be using it for school. Now I need a case that also has a stand and am most likely going to get it from amazon. It seems rooCase is the most popular there and is this ultra slim seems the most likely for me. But it looks like it cannot tilt, or I cannot angle it more. Am I right about this. I really need to change the angle and I need a small case for the school table.
Good fitting case
Just got the ultra-slim Roocase for my GT 10.1. I really like it. The quality looks good, and most importantly, it looks like it will protect my tab very well. I would recommend it.
Bought this on Ebay and I really like it:
SGP Ultra Capsule Case White
Pros:
-No one notices it is a case
-Buttons all work
-Does not add bulk to the phone
-Protects the bezel
-Has pearl color not plain white
Cons:
-Could be a little bit less smooth to improve grip

That looks nice mate..
That looks very nice. How do you think it's protected inside? Any padding?
That looks top quality mate...
This is the exact case I got off amazon. Its a fantastic case. Mine is a little dirty after a month or so use but should clean off.

Excellent looking case and would be a perfect match on a white Note, the only thing I dislike about it is the little cutout in the corner designated for the Asian version I think.
I have it and rather dislike it. I do not like overly smooth overall finish, make it slippery in hand. Covers over buttons are a bit too tight, making buttons overly sensitive; I almost turn off my phone several times when I only wanted to put it to sleep. The cutout in the corner is really puzzling.
Beautiful case but person at AT&T says that type of case offers no real protection. My gf dropped her iPhone with similar case and the screen shattered. So I bought Speck Candyshell. Uglier but it works.

I also dont know what is with that little cutout in the corner. Ive been looking for cases and I really like the SGP Capsule but that little cutout makes me think twice. My current case have this too and I put on some cling-film on the corner cause I'm a paranoid parrot

thats is for the internal antenna
I bought this case off Amazon. Came with stenheil(sp?) screen protector, too. So it was a good bundle deal.
Fits great, works well and looks good too. I assume corner cut-out is for antenna.

Great case but this white colour may be a dirt magnet for long term use. I prefer black and with a bit of grip on the sides for extra protection on the phone to prevent accidental drops.
Hi guys,
Just wondering if any of you using a Rock Quicksand case with your S3 have found a leather pouch that the duo will fit in?
I was thinking of buying the official case and hoping it will stretch, but any advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers

Simply because the reviewer said it was loose, it is. Probably enough to get the phone+Rock on with a bit of work. Accepts mine no problem with a flip cover, which has a wider case back and the front flap. Not bad quality either.
Thanks for the reply! In the end, I took a chance and ordered the genuine Samsung Galaxy Note pouch which fits the combo perfectly.
Absolutely delighted.

You guys mind taking some shots of the S3 in note's pouch? I wanna see how snugly it fits into the pouch, and how easy it will be to take out.
I'm using the rock quicksand as well and I have been looking for comfort fit neoprene pouch, nothing skin tight.
Thanks!
Here you go!
The phone fits firmly in the note case but is also extremely easy to remove - if you squeeze the edges of the pouch together, the phone slips out freely.
Couldn't ask for more!

Nice! but it looks like it's made of leather (or faux leather). what's the inside like? same material? suede? I'm just paranoid of how it may scratch my screen. hence I've been looking for neoprene materials all these while. my nillkin protector is dry application hence doesn't cover everything. you reckon it'll be safe from scratches?
Looks like they don't have it locally though. Gonna need to order online....

The inside is a suede type material so shouldn't scratch the phone.

Youre worried about the 2 millimeter space around the screen protector that is of no actual use anyway? (which is also made of gorilla glass 2 and I have to assume it can withstand some soft suede)
Does the speaker hole line up?

I think I'm going to get the Krussell Luna 4XL pouch. I already have a KaysCase and I think the 3XL pouch would fit my phone only but with the case on it I think the 4XL would be a better fit.
http://www.amazon.com/Krusell-Premium-Leather-Samsung-SmartPhones/dp/B006VAMZLA/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1341019454&sr=1-1&keywords=krusell+luna+4xl
Hi,
any experience with the Luna 4XL yet? Got a Quicksand merely out of curiosity and I am so much impressed of the haptics it adds, don't want to return it. Still, more important to me is a pouch that protects the phone, especially the screen when it's in my pocket, laptop case, backpack, etc.
I hab pretty good experiences, case-wise with the Noreve on my HD2, but the S3 with the Quicksand so far did not fit into any of the pouches I tried. Placed an order for the Krusell, even though the Quicksand is thicker than the specs for the Luna are (10.8 vs 10 mm). We'll see how it fits...

This case looks excellent. I'll be keeping watch on their blog from here on out to see when I can pre-order.
I had one on my s2. First week it was fantastic..
After that, garbage. The lining portion they provide stretches and causes a gap in between the back of the phone and the lining. Got pretty annoyed with it and threw it away.

They have updated it.
So what's different? In previous versions a silicone cover was used. However, we've updated the series is a new TPU material. This new material is still as soft and dust-resistant, but with added durability and protection. Perhaps the best update on the new Neo Hybrid for the Galaxy S3 is that there is absolutely NO sagging or expanding of the TPU cover due to heat from device.Great news to all Neo Hybrid fans out there!

It ses the harder material sits on the phone, while the softer TPU material is on the outside. Seems like that is scratches just waiting to happen. Now reverse that so that TPU inside, hard shell outside, and add an optional belt clip and I'll take 2!!!

Did you read the website?
The Galaxy S3 Neo Hybrid Case Series will be the same dual concept as the Galaxy S2 and iPhone. The case features a TPU cover with a hard polycarbonate frame. The TPU material protects the phone by absorbing shock from any accidental drops. The hard plastic frame protect the phone from scratches and scuffs. Having both the advantages of a hard and soft case makes the Neo Hybrid an all-around protective solution.

The frame (outside) is PC (hard). The cover, TPU, absorbs the shock.
Your phone wont be getting scratches with this case.
Bummer... the TPU is blue only the border of the hard case is white.
I've never clicked on their blog, and but they have really good stuff. Nano Clear Giveaway?? eek!

Has anyone had this case on the Nexus or other phone? Are they high-quality cases? (They appear to be pretty darn good.)
I like how there still appears to be lots of room around the home button for my fat thumb! Many other cases seem to have a lower lip that protrudes close to the home button...
Thanks!

I tried 2 gel cases the mini suit and amzers both found on Amazon.com
The mini suit doesn't have a gel feel, and lacks protection. Here's the link for mini suit..
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=Amzer+note+10.1
Amzers case has a very jelly feel, and is also much thicker. The price is well worth the extra grip and protection. Which is my favorite thing about the case. It helps you grip the enormous 10in display comfortably without fear of slippage.
http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-AMZ9466...id=1359557273&sr=8-1&keywords=Amzer+note+10.1
All in all if you want the cheapest case you can get to prevent back scratches go with mini suit. If you actually want a grippy protective gel case go with the Amzer. Both cases come in many colors, and at only $20 for the amzer, and $10 for the mini suit($5 shipping included) they are both a steal!
Please remember to thank post if you found it helpful!
Been thinking about getting amzer case, but have read a few reviews that say the silicon doesn't sit flush with the tablet. And that's, my one concern, tell us about it in y your opinion, and photos would be great thanks

By flush you are referring to the way the speakers/headphone input are or aren't exposed?
Theway the rubber sits on the device or are there gaps on the bezel or around ports and or soeaker grills

Hey man, So I was about to post pics for you but my phone kinda crapped out. Sent it into samsung so it should be back in the next 2 weeks. I will try to borrow my GF's GS3 to take some pictures later.. Unfortunately I am using a basic Huawei Android ATT Go phone in the mean time. No flash ****ty 3MP camera wouldn't really show you what you want to see.
I will be honest though, my thoughts about the amzer case where exactly that it was an amazingly snug and good fit. All the speakers/mics/camera/everything is all flush.
I have the amzer. It is thick and heavy. Loads of protection though. It covers all the silver except for speaker grills. There is a YouTube clip I think.
The amzer is definitely thick and good on protection.
Good
agreed

Im not sure if your aware of the newer types of polymers used for gel cases nowadays. They are more dust resistent. In short I dont have a huge dust issue when using the amzer gel case. It stays fairly clean and if it attracts an occasional cat or dog hair theyre not statically glued to the case! Hope this helps!
I have the mini suit and it's great. Fits snugly and all the holes match up. I have a handmade leather case for my note and the mini suit is good to use when I'm walking around with it.
