MOFI Case

I tried 3 or 4 different cases/pouches for my phone and have settled down with MOFI Pouch from Amazon, its the kangaroo series, costs 3 pounds but very good quality and looks expensive, I ordered black and brown. Good thing about this pouch is that it has got soft velvet type material inside that cleans the screen every time you pull it out. Search for the following term, cant post a link sorry.Hope this helps someone.

is the pouch just for the headphones (to store) or are the headphones connected to the phone in the pouch ?

Waiting for a black one, it thought it looked the best. Really like the idea of the phone getting cleaned every time it gets pulled out of the pouch. Using an Android OEM pouch in the meantime, which is not that bad either.

ehh
I picked up one of these MOFI kangeroo cases as well, but gave up on it after a day of use.
The inside lining does clean the screen most of the time, but the rest of the case is the issue. The cloth exterior is extremely...well, grippy, meaning when you try to pull out the case in your jeans pocket, the pocket lining gets dragged out with the case. Its also too furry for me, because the last thing I want is to be sweating all over my case when summer hits in a month's time.
I'd say that this case is great for those who keep their phone in a briefcase/handbag/backpack etc, but the useability drops significantly if you are the type to put it in the front pocket of your jeans.

Anyone tried one of these leather case from mofi? seems decent and the seller said it fits well with the phone.
The OEM android pouch is nice too but it takes ages to ship to the UK.

Yeah, I have both of the Mofi cases and IMO the Kangaroo offers more protection than the Lux. The Lux is very thin and flimsy but I prefer it's look and feel so I use that one. In regards to the fit it hangs out the top of the pouch by about 1-2mm whilst the Kangaroo encases it completely.
I got this "Advanced Mofi Leather Galaxy S2 SII i9100 Case Pouch UK" it's the same as the Lux but a different design.

Hey thanks for sharing your experience=)
pity that the Lux one doesn't cover up to the top.. really like the look of it but not sure if the quality is good enough to last for months.

Hi guys
I use the official gs2 case, it does leave the top and bottom exposed but I also have the HTCHD7 leather pouch and combine nicely together ;-)

I received my Official Samsung Case today, the vent one, and with it on it just fits inside the Kangaroo but doesn't fit the Lux or Advanced pouch. I just thought I would post in case anyone was thinking of pairing the two.
Regards,
Chris

Someone on another forum said that the Mofi cases made them feel sick because of the feel of the fabric.

WTF???
I'm using the Mofi case I used with my SGS, about 1mm of the phone sticks out. I don't like the Kangaroo ones so if I can find the regular Mofi for the SGS II I'll probably buy it.
edit: Found one and ordered it.

Apparently it's made of some material that feels wierd in the hand or something.

Well I'm holding the one for the SGS and it doesn't feel weird. Maybe the person has hairy palms or something.

I got mine today the kangaroo series. It does feel weird in a way. The fur seems like it will get dirty with all the dust around where I live. Before that I was using the stock Sony Xperia ARC stock pouch which the SGS2 fits nicely in.
I didn't know that 1-2 mm of the SGS2 sticks out of the Lux leather, shame I already ordered it. but gotta say that the kangaroo series is nice despite that it will be a dust/dirt magnet due to its fur.

i want to buy a kangaroo pouch, but i live in chile.. and its very expensive, who can send me one please?? ill pay u, but to get it in my home from amazon ill have to pay like $40

I too own both Mofi pouches, but I whilst I agree the Lux version looks better, I prefer and use the Kangeroo pouch on a daily basis! I feared from the pic on ebay that the Lux pouch may not fully cover the phone and that is the case: somewhat defeating the object of having a pouch imho.
Also of note is that I didn't really want the extra (kangeroo) pouch for headphones or whatever, and some on ebay look like they don't have it, which is what I ordered. Sadly when my pouch arrived it was of the kangeroo style. Whilst I don't as yet use the pouch for any accessories or anything, I can confirm it doesn't really add any bulk, and if anything adds extra cushioning and offers more peace of mind in the event of a drop!
As a general note I just want to say I prefer to use pouches for general protection on mobiles because why would you want to spoil the lovely thinness of the SGS2 with a bulky gel case? Yes, it doesn't protect against a drop whilst in use, but I have insurance!
The Mofi Kangaroo pouch get's my vote!

just ordered from the amazon.ca to muy courrier on usa to get it to chile... it will be little expensive, but i like it

Is it possible to put earphones into that case? or is it dangerous for the phone/not enough space?
Do you mind taking some real pics of it? cause really the ebay pics seem so fake.

the channel contains more case reviews with dimensions thrown in (i think they take measurements at the thickest, widest points of the case)

I absolutely love this case. I have gotten hybrids like this that are HORRIBLE the trick is to find the one with those 6 arc's on the back. THOSE are the good ones.
I have orange and blue coming in for the S3. I found orange plastic portion but I don't want to pay $16 for it (I got the other 2 for under $10)
I have accidentally "hard core" tested this case twice and hopefully never again. it came through perfectly both times.
Once I saw a wasp go into the gas cover of my metro. I opened the gas cover NEST
cool time for pictures. usually insects ignore you unless you mess with em. Wasp's not the same. they are "proactive"
once I got within about 12" a small squadron of them (5 or 6 of the 11 or so that were their (counted in the picture later) took off right for my hand to teach me the error of my ways.
once I felt the wind from their wings I panicked and ended up flinging the phone into a nice high arc 15ft out into the street !!
not a scratch on it.
another time MORON me stuck the phone on the top lip inisde the van hatch. I forgot I had put it their and proceeded to close the hatch on the phone. The sickening crack I heard I would have sword was my phone segregating into two pieces. right across the screen.
Nope it was just the case crunching. it did its job and protected the phone.
EXTREMELY impressed with these cases and I can get them in almost any color combo I want (just have to buy 2 to get the colors you want
I have this case for every phone I have except my defy xt only because they have not made one for it yet.
unless the bamboo case I ordered really grabs me I will probably end up with this case on my S3 as well. I just love this case
and its CHEAP you can usually get one for $8 or $9 shipped

I'm happy when others are happy...... I'd never put this on my phone however. It's F'n huge!
Currently not being productive on my S3.

well the way I see it "huge" costs me $8 while "broken phone" costs me $500 easy decision.
I am "rough" with my stuff sometimes.
plus while this is unique to me that is still "small" to me. I am 6'4" 440 pounds size 13-14 shoes.
to me that size is "just right"

It's not a bad case. I had the $4 version on my S3, but without a holster it was stuck in my pocket. So while running around at work it tended to sweat which freaked me out. It lasted a good month until one day I picked it up without the phone in it and the plastic sides cracked. Maybe the more expensive ones are of a higher quality.

yeah I have gotten some that were so cheap I would not even put my phone in them. scary crap out their
I don't like the silicon first cases like the otter box since if anything gets INSIDE the case it will grind away the finish on the phone. this is less likely with hard first.

From what I've heard the dba ultra case is supposed to be pretty rugged
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

well I could not wait. too paranoid so I paid the anal rape price for a case at a store. I refused to pay $20 for a $3 TPU case so I got a nicer case. a SPECK case in green and grey (better than black or white)
Uploading some pictures now
the design of this case is interesting. its almost as slim as a TPU case but it silicon and polycarbonate like a rugged case. I guess I would call it a "slim rugged"
its "one piece" so the two parts are bonded together. cutouts are perfect. the buttons are super tactile and responsive. LOVE the buttons.
would have preferred a brighter color like blue or orange but its better than black or white that is for sure !
I am actually quite impressed with the case. it FEELS wonderful fits tight does not appear as if it will become lose over time thanks to the polycarbonate shell.
if I you are looking for slim instead of full on armor I would definitely consider this case. very well made looks nice and feels nice adding surprisingly little bulk to the phone.

Here are maybe a couple others to consider-
http://www.tech21.uk.com/#
The most rugged tech21 case actually includes their less expensive case inside another shell, it looks like a reverse defender.
The other one I actually just bought but haven't gotten it yet-
http://www.dbacases.com/complete-ultra.aspx
The complete ultra is like the candy shell/hybrids but has a tpu inner instead of a silicone inner, I don't know about protection levels but it definitely looks better than the other hybrid types, maybe a "semi-rugged"?

What case are you guys looking at for your arriving GN2?

I thought i'd ask the AT&T folks, the international forum is too large and impersonal.
Im looking at this one for myself: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nillkin-Mat...841&pid=100011&prg=1005&rk=1&sd=140855149689&

I got that one in white. Waiting on the Marble White version to be available for AT&T.

The ONE thing nice about not having the phone in hands yet is it has given me time to get some goodies on order with cheap shipping. I have four cases headed my way (yes idle hands). As you will see from my selections, I like cases that are TPU or similar for absorbing shock. I don't like very bulky cases.

Then the Flexshield cases. I think one of these will be my everyday case. I couldn't decide between transparent or black so I ordered both. They come from mobilefun.com in the UK and since I had so much time to wait (November 9th or so) I used the cheap $5 shipping and it should be here by then.

Still haven't decided if I am getting the Note yet, I have SGS3 and its great, with a nice strong seido case (extended battery active) it isn't too big. I feel like having a big case on the note will be too much. I'm in the army and the SGS3 barely fits in my ankle pockets now, Only option for the Note would be in my cargo pockets and it might break in there...

i am looking into the Nilikin case atleast until there is an otterbox commuter for the note 2

Case I ordered
This is the case I ordered from Korea.
1) some sort of a metallic material bumper case (black)
2) some sort of a metallic material battery cover (black)
and its going to be going on the Titanium Grey colored version of the note 2
by the way the second picture is the metal battery cover by itself.

I got this clear hard shell case at Amazon for $10.99.

Trident. Just have to baby it for a month or so. :good:

Ive got the Nilikin cases in white and black. Not a fan of the texture. But it was the only thing available that was decent at the time. Im waiting for the Elago slim cases to come out which i have on my original Note.

I just ordered this case of ebay, not bad for the price and it looks half decent. I will post pictures once i get it and the phone(still waiting for rogers to ship)

hey guys i got a quick question im currently married to my skyrocket...but im leaving her for this beautful note 2. something i came across that was rather annoying with the skyrocket when it came to cases is that the phone style changed based on the carriers. e.g the speaker orientation on the sgs2 hercules vs the sgs2 skyrocket where different. even tho they are the same phone specs wise. is this the same here since all the cases linked here are for the n7100 and our phones are the n7137m and n7147m or something to that effect thanks for your replies in advance

The note 2 as far as dimensions go are the same across all models. So all cases will work

I want to buy case and screen protector

Hello All,
First of all i want to say im new to XDA developers site and new in Android phones.
Recently (like 2 weeks ago) i bought my Galaxy Nexus I9250 and i want to protect my phone so i need case and screen protectors( Ebay or Amazon need cheap and good ^^) and battery cuz when my batery is fully charged(100%) im using Wi-Fi and surfing the internet using not so much applications on and the battery finish in 4 hours so if u guys can recommend me on a good battery from ebay amazon i dont mind(the version of the phone is 4.1.1).
Thx for help.

Otterbox
I bought this with my phone when it released back in 2011. I really like it. its on og the best case company: http://www.otterbox.com/Samsung-Gal...or=20&start=2&cgid=samsung-galaxy-nexus-cases

I prefer the Commuter case too. And it will fit the OEM extended battery w/o the door.

I have the gsm model. As for a screen protector I like the Skinomi drytech protector, I had a ArmorSuit one but it has that rainbow effect, the Skinomi one is clear, but, the one I received was cut to exact fit and you have to be careful when applying it because it will stretch slightly over the edge of the screen. I have a SGP Hybrid case and it is great, I also have an Otterbox Defender case for work, I love it, a little rainbow effect on the screen but it's bearable.

If you're looking for a cheaper alternative to the Otterbox. The Trident Aegis case is the way to go (and they offer color options)... they're down to $12.98 on Amazon.

Favorite case and battery friendly rom
I found this nice case from Nilkin: NILLKIN-PU-Leather-PC-Flip-Wallet-Cover-Case-LG-E960-Nexus-4-LCD-Film
The ROCK flip case is also my favorite but it sold out everywhere I look.
Btw. I am using the latest Paranoid(15 febr) rom and the battery usage very friendly.:

I think Xtreme Guard screen protectors are the best and easiest to install. They usually have coupon codes. I think I bought 3 for less than $5.

Spigen Neo Hybrid or genuine bumper case?

What's your preferred? Genuine for stock look of more stylish with Spigen?

I picked up the Spigen Case Slim Armor -- liked the look of the white one & love TPU cases, even though this is a bit more plastic than TPU cases from CruzerLite.

personally the stock cases from the market seem a bit too painful to look at.... especially the yellow one, I already picked up a Neo Hybrid - Silver, I was at most considering stock grey

Those cases are freakin' gorgeous, just wish they had one in bright neon yellow.

I think the Neo Hybrid looks great, but I'm worried about the polycarbonate frame breaking. Look up the user submitted pics of the Neo Hybrid for the Galaxy S4 or iPhone 5 on Amazon. There are reports of the frame breaking near the charging port or headphone jack since it's thin in those areas.

Yea my sister's Galaxy S4 one broke. They apparently reinforced it with the new revision. But both my mom's and my sister's paint job did not hold up well and started peeling. I'm probably going with the Ultra Hybrid instead.

Have you tried seeing if they'll replace it under warranty?

They are. I didn't get any response from their email customer service so I ended up using Twitter to contact them.

Wow thats a pretty big concern for me if thats the case. The case looked very appealing and had good color schemes. I don't care too much about the case peeling but as long as it doesn't break then I'm okay. I probably won't get it just incase unless Spigen sends a replacement without question incase anything happens.

They did revise it... as seen here:

But can't tell of they did this for the Nexus 5 version since it's just renders.

I would have gotten a genuine bumper if they were, a: available and b: came in white.
Seriously, bright yellow and red but no white? Gone for a spigen ultra hybrid, seems to keep the angles of the official bumpers but lets me see my white phone

I was disappointed with Nexus 4 genuine bumper: ugly, power button remains pressed (I had to cut with a cutter), bezel and chrome keys peeled off...

Poetic slimline bumper for the n4 was perfect, for me anyways. Fitment, looks, and colors were perfect. And the price was better too. They have them for the n5 available, being shipped in a few weeks.

Personally I didn't like the poetic bumpers. They felt very cheap in terms of the buttons as well as the bumper itself. It provides no grip to the bumper itself.
You get what you pay for I guess
