Magnetic Cases & Display - Galaxy S III Accessories

Rumor has it that magnetic locks on cases can interfear and/or damage the display.
Is there any truth to this?

no

Supposedly the screen will lose sensitivity to the touch; where the magnet is located.

Hi Guys !
Just looked at this thread and the link on eBay , as I´m also waiting for a high quality leathercase - I´d ordered mine from PIEL FRAMA.
Scrolling down the advertising page on ebay I saw the different possibilities of closure-mechanisms , so there´s my warning:
Beware of magnetic closures , they will make problems with SGN Display in the region of the magnetic flap !!
Statement: PielFrama also produced their first Series of SGNCases with a magentic flip mechanism and MUST change back to nonmagentic snaps !
EmailReply PF :
We have been checking the case with our craftsmen and now, everything is
solved so that, the case you will receive does not have any problem.
This post should solve dissapointments cause of sharing recent experiences !
Ciao Hannes

Incipio premium kickstand case - stupid magnets!

Why do these manufacturers insist on putting magnets in a case that holds a gps device with magnetic compass?! This completely throws off the compass heading and probably affects navigation too. The Incipio kickstand case is pretty nice, even if it does add a little too much bulk. I may just write the company and request a replacement case that does not have magnets, or otherwise try to remove the magnets myself.
Rob
Well I'm about to get a case for mine, had been looking at one with magnets... Thanks for this thread, I wasn't aware magnets would cause such problems. One would assume that case manufacturers know what they are doing... geez.

There is definitely a good chance that the magnets would interfere with the compass. Incipio replied and offered to exchange the case for one of their other ones, but I really like their folio case even if it's a bit thick. You are right though, the manufacturers need to be more aware that putting magnets in a tablet case is a big no-no! I don't know how much an inaccurate compass reading would affect navigation, but it does affect initial heading position when you get a gps fix. The compass in the xoom works really well though and doesn't always need calibrating like some others. Yet in a car with all that metal it can still throw the compass off..... I am just debating on attempting to remove the magnets from the case or just leaving it alone.
Rob
Yeah it's really hard to find a good case that doesn't use magnets... I still haven't decided which one to get because of that lol.
One question came to me earlier - are you sure that the Xoom has a magnetic compass at all? I really don't know, when I first read your post it made sense, but now that I think about it - isn't the compass simply using two consecutive GPS positions (i.e. "1 second ago" + "right now") to determine the vector / direction of travel?
Apart from that, I'm not questioning the effect of magnets on computer hardware in general. I don't think that a magnet as tiny as the ones they build into cases could have any ill effect on hardware though.
It would be great if someone could chime in who has made an experience (good or bad) with a magnetic case - or maybe shed some more light on this...

Genuine Samsung Galaxy S3 Flip Cover Video Review

Genuine Samsung S3 Cover / Case Part No - EFC-1G6FBECSTD
Youtube Link
As always any feedback is more than welcome
Good point someone just made, you can't see the LED for notifications.
Not a major thing for me but it maybe for some people.
It also makes using the camera a bit of a pain. Useful for proping up the phone though.

Yeah I agree. Not my kind of case tbf but as it's a genuine product I thought I'd review it. My favorite case so far is a case from tech21

Like the fit, but blocking the led and awkward way you'd have to use camera make it a no go.
great review though.

Yeah I'm aware the proximity sensor turns the screen off when it's by the side of your face but I thought it was worth pointing out it still works with the case.

Hello everyone,
I'm using the flip cover on my S3 and is exactly what i wanted. The only problem is the led being covered, so, i used a tool that i have to make holes on belts to make one on the cover and now is perfect for me.
See the pic below. The cover is very hard, i had to make a lot of "force" to make the hole.

I doubt they will but I think it would increase sales as a lot of people have pointed out the issue. I can't see how they can solve the issue of using the camera though.
Can someone that owns this case answer me this;
Is this cover protective for the screen in a case of a fall? I mean does it "lock" in place over the screen? If you turn it upside down for example, the flip opens?
I believe its the most basic thing that should be answered (if it does not protect the screen its useless) and no one in any review does this simple test.

Sorry I thought it was clear, no it doesn't lock to the screen so it dropped it could easily flap open.
ive pre ordered the case as its not out in australia yet, i should be getting it next week. never really thought about the camera and stuff until you guys mentioned it. ive used pu leather flip cases before and havnt really found it a problem. hopefully ill enjoy it as much i planned to. i love the looks and quality of the case, ive paid $39 aus for this product. cant wait..

I got one of these a couple of weeks back for my device. I found it was rather annoying having to hold it at an awkward angle when on the phone. I wish they'd made it flip up or down instead of to the side. It also means you can't hold it very well with your left hand either, as it adds even more width on to the device!
I've switched to a skin thingy now instead, even though it leaves the screen open to damage. I'm still looking to get some kind of plastic cover I can use with the skin I've got though.

Interesting keyboard case on eBay

So I was browsing for keyboard cases for my Note 10.1 the other day and found this case:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Slim-Blueto...vers_Keyboard_Folios&var=&hash=item3a844f9c90
Seems interesting because the keyboard is detachable from the case via a magnet on the back of case.
My only concern is that the magnet on the case might mess up the S-Pen. I've had a case with magnets and it indeed interfered with the Note's S-Pen.
Anyway, has anyone heard of this keyboard case?
I'm almost read to order one but the viewing angle looks a little steep?
I did not see any mention of magnets in the description, it's an aluminum case.

Hi kkretch,
The case does seem to have a large magnet on the back where the keyboard part is attached to. Which, by the way, is one of the nicest features of this case. You can either choose to use the tablet with the back cover, or attach it to the keyboard (see picture attached).
Now, I'm not sure how it will interfere with the S-Pen. But magnets and the S-Pen don't go well together.
Here's another seller selling the same item with more detailed pictures:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ultra-Thin-...vers_Keyboard_Folios&var=&hash=item3385635c0d
And as far as I can tell, the viewing angle is adjustable.
The case seems to be very well built and slim. I might take the risk and order one.
Let me know what you think.
If it is indeed a magnet holding it on I'm going to pass, but if you do get it please tell us how it is.
Did you notice the links have different prices.
Just so you guys know, the s-pen works by radio waves, so magnets should not affect it at all. Until some proof is provided, im going to assume that everyone who says they experienced it is just convincing themselves that they did.

This is not true at all. Wacom digitizers do use magnets, that's why you don't need a stylus with battery in it.
Just grab a magnet and put it near the S-Pen while writing down something and you'll see.

I have a case with some magnets attached to it hold the stand and it definitely messes up the s pen in the region of the magnets. If the case is removed, the s pen works fine. There's a lengthy thread on that in of the fora here, you should check that out if you don't believe me.
the wacom digitizer emits an electrical field which allows the spen to function without battery, it does not use RF
I experimented a little
it seems low power magnets had no effect (magnets you would find in most cases)
rare earth magnets however were able to disrupt the spen, and were able to penetrate though the back of the device and cause the spen not to work good aswell
the magnet has to be right on the device or right behind it to have any effect, as soon as it moves an inch-half an inch away it works normally again
I ordered one of those knock off samsung book cover cases which also has magnets in it, so i will see if while opened it has any effect on it

I see.. Well ive had two cases with magnets in it for several months and no problems so ill back up your claim about only rare metal magnets being strong enough.

My sister had a case with a magnet on her Note 2 and it messed up the S-Pen. Although the S-Pen did return to its original state but it took weeks before it came completely demagnetized.
that's awesome. thanks!
I just bought a note and it came with a no name case. Has magnets that keeps the lid closed. Just two small ones at each upper corner of the case. Havent noticed any interference with it.
I really like that keyboard one, especially since its detachable. Is it possibly to get one with a trackpad? ...like the transformer? Or is that custom Asus firmware allowing it to use the pad?

Own this case
I bought the case the OP was asking about. I have to say that it is a great fit for me. The magnet on the back that holds the keyboard to the case has caused no issues with my SPen. The case and keyboard are very slim and add very little bulk to the overall feel. The keyboard is aluminum which makes it feel very durable. The only con I can find about this case is that the key strokes are a little misleading. Don't get me wrong, the keyboard works perfectly and hasn't missed a keystroke yet, but since I am used to traditional keyboards, the feel of the keys as I type is throwing me off a little. Nothing that time and use won't solve. I also like that the keyboard is removable and I still have a protective case on the back of the tablet.
Overall, this is the best keyboard/case I have found for the Note 10.1 (2012) for my needs.

I will try to take some pics when I get back home. Travelling for work at the moment and do not have that case and keyboard on my Note at the moment. I switch it up with the Samsung case and cover as I don't need the keyboard as often the more I use the tablet. Try to get some pics up on Friday though when I get home.
You are correct though, when the keyboard is off, the screen is exposed. I use Invisible Shield to solve that problem.

Spigen Slim Armor View for Nexus 5

Check out my video review on the Spigen Slim Armor View:
https://wwwyoutube.com/watch?v=Kqc0gUDvueU
One thing I forgot to mention in the video is the auto sleep/wake function. This allows the screen to sleep just like with regular usage. When you wake the phone using the standby button the app will still be running.
I do not have enough posts to place an external link in a thread, so you will have to put a dot after the www in the link.
It would be great if someone could post the proper link.
Here you go, embedded it for you.
Very well done review! Nice detail and the video is super clear.

Their app really really sucks. I don't know why I thought it'd be good. Mostly all of their products suck I'm kinda happy with the case but still have issues with it. Under the window its still plastic not rubber so the plastic is resting right on the screen and the front cover is really thin and it bugs me just because I can press down on it and it will touch the screen. I don't have a screen protector on it so this is a concern. Its alright but I'll definitely be looking for a new case. Hard to hold while texting and the hinge is kinda crappy. They say 360° but I don't see how they got 360 when that means a complete rotation. It flips on its back and that's only 180°. But at least it doesn't cover the camera.

Again to dig up the old topic...
but...
... no reason to start a new thread as anyone looking to buy this case should be able to find all opinions in one place.
I bought this case have extremely mixed feelings.
1, it's a great case. It fits well. The buttons require a little extra effort to push, but no big deal. Supposedly the flip cover is removable, but I haven't seen how to do it without breaking the hinge. I'm sure it can be done, but I'm afraid to push things. Definitely it makes the phone bigger and heavier, but I don't see that as a bad thing as honestly the phone is a featherweight without a case. One minor issue with the physical build, is that the bottom edge of the view window brushes the screen of the phone while closed. Being plastic, I'm sure it wouldn't affect the glass screen. However, it does appear to be starting to leave a worn spot on the screen protector of my phone after only a few weeks. Something to definitely think of if you use plastic screen protectors.
2, the software is incredibly incredibly terrible. Whether you use 3rd party or the official Spigen app, they both bite the big one. I can't review each separately because I swapped between them constantly as new problems appeared, and forgot which one had which problems. But problems included: battery usage. phone calls not answering. phone calls answering themselves. can't connect bluetooth outgoing calls without opening flip cover. randomly lists previous calls as still ongoing. Additionally, though this isn't technically software, you have to be exceedingly careful not to even get near the proximity sensor while using the phone or it will trigger the app. Even with a 2 second proximity delay, I found it was very hard especially in landscape mode (such as taking pictures) to not accidentally trigger the sensor. Also, having the light sensor covered renders auto brightness non functional.
In the end, I still use the case. But without proper software support, I'm not sure it is worth $45. I ended up just putting widgets on my homescreens on the top 1/2 of the screen so I can see them with the flip cover closed. Answering the phone requires the ol' open the flip cover deal. That's better than the terrible software.
As far as protection... considering my Nexus 4 shattered from a drop onto dirt, despite having a Ringke Hybrid Fusion installed, I was looking for better protection. It appears this offers much better protection. It has already survived a 3 foot drop, initiated by a cranky cat, from a piano to a hardwood floor. Only time will tell, of course.
If you don't mind NOT having the software support... I feel this might just be the safest your Nexus 5 can be without placing it in a firesafe filled with expanding foam.
My buddy ordered this case a while ago, loved it, then hated it. Some of you were concerned about the view window touching the screen and potentially scratching it, well it did, for him at least. He now has a dull line across the middle of his screen. Almost the whole width. This only took 2 weeks of use. Just a little FYI for those interested in this case. You'll definitely want to use a screen protector with it.
Yeah my screen got deep scratches as well I can see them on the otherwise of my now installed screen protector. Its a nice case. Terrible window. And terrible app. The Galaxy S4 view armor had glass in the case itself. I bought this because I thought it did too.

I have bombed spigen's email with complaints and they do not even bother to reply - it's such a shame that a company would make a great case, with promises of a functioning app and not follow through. My brother (note 3) and my gf (S4) BOTH bought this case on my recommendation and they love it bc it just works. I know it's different bc we dont have the magnets to trigger the innerworkings but sheesh just give us something relatively useful and it would be okay.

I'd be willing to give a little pass on the proximity sensor issues if those were the ONLY issues.
Sooo, spigen supplys the case but no app?
Or does anyone have more info then that, i ordered the case before i read up on it in here... and now i have it laying on my desk and i am not sure if i sould unpack it or not.
Without the app the window is pointless... and i could have ordered the slim armor instead and saved a few bucks ...
but i really liked the idea of having my screen protected by a secon layer of defense .. first one is obviously a screen foil ...
can anyone confirm that the app is really missing or am i just to stupid to use the search function?

"cover all flaps" +1
I'll by it :good:
Problem with makers is they're looking for volumes which is why you see gazzilions of things for iPhones & Samsung galaxies, which all sell by the boatload. Lower volume selling devices don't get a look in.

Fantastic! Please, cover all flaps area leaving accessible only the magnetic connector.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and headphone jack please. I'm interested. I already have placed order for front and back rhino shield so a bumber would complete the set nicely.
+1 "cover all flaps"
but it should be magnetic charger compatible... :good:
I would love one as well. With just headphone and magnetic ports exposed.
Same here, I saw that the other day and thought it was a shame they didn't make one for the Z3c. So yes definitely would be interested if like the others said before me it has the jack and the magnetic port accessible.
Yep me too, as others have said, keep it covered, and just expose the magnetic port , there seems to be no good cases made for this phone.
If they had one of these for the z3c, I would buy it in a heartbeat. Cover everything except the headphone port (even the mag port if that's what's needed to make this structurally sound). Popping off the bumper at night to charge wouldn't bother me a bit.
I've just emailed them about it, see if I get a response...
Yessssss! Do it! Thank you for taking the action ?
