Waiting on the Trident Kraken but this product peaked my interest. After checking out the website, it is a single layer polycarbonate system, the accessories are unique/$$ and expected availability is September 01, 2012. Like it but don't want to wait ...I am already waiting.
No iPhone around here to put a case on.

Pictures for you..

will the "magnet kit" affect the NFC and signal capabilities though? important question, at least i think so.

This looks awesome. Would love to see a review for it, has anyone bought it?

I second that, I would be curious to see if the magnet killed NFC or radios deduced.

The Trident Kraken looks pretty sweet. How is it in comparison to the Otterbox Defender? I just pre-ordered the Otterbox.

can only preorder. not available until 9.1.12.... so it'll be a while.

It seems expensive, but you are getting a lot with the case. You get the mounting kit, magnet kit, and screen protector along with the case.
Now to figure out what color to go with. I like the white the best but think it would get dirty with all those grooves. I also like the gun metal too.

I contacted Rokform and they won't have pictures of the different cases on the S3 until closer to release. I ordered the gun metal one, can't wait.

Cool look!胜利:

Looks interesting, waiting on some reviews but might order one

I emailed them and they said additional pictures of the other colors should be out in a week or so. And the case should ship September 14

I had this case for my iphone 4S. Magnet was awesome as we're all the accessories. As such, when they emailed me about the s3 case I pre ordered it immediately.
For the iphone it is definitely a hard plastic feeling case and it had sort of sharp edges (some people don't like that). Of course I did have the first model of the case;it's unknown to me if they modified the design or not.
I love sticking it to the top of my motorcycle tank or a fixing it to metal objects nearby. Highly recommend this case.

curious about the magnet too. thought about sliding one under my ballistic sg maxx case but wasn't really sure on how it might affect the phone. nice case though. think i'll wait for a review and actual pics of the colors before i get it.

This is still supposed to ship Friday but I'm not holding my breath. They still don't have unrendered pictures of it.

Everybody is working on the iPhone 5.

Well Rokform made up for the delay. They emailed me letting me know that because I preordered so early, they will send me a v3 case of my choosing for free. So I've now got a gun metal and a sky blue coming.

[Q] Cases for the 10.1

Are there any cases for the thin 10.1 tablet available?
I'm getting my tablet mid of june.
None that I've seen yet. I saw an unboxing video of a case, but I think that is for the chubby 10.1v. I want a case, but don't want to cover up my little androids on back. lol

Oh. Okay
I'm going to go to best buy today and see if any ipad sleeves will work
We're probably going to have to wait until the tab is officially released before we can get a proper case but if I can just get a cloth sleeve now I'll be happy
Yeah, I'm worried that the seller messed up and forgot to put a 'v' after 10.1. It will arrive this week. Worse case scenario is it will sit loose in the case which can be fixed with some quick modifications. But just mainly something to have until manufacturers start selling cases. (Then return for a refund...)
Does anyone know if there's a way to get insurance for the device? (Will squaretrade provide w/o a purchase receipt?)

also hoping the amazon one isnt for the chubby version.
Cant wait to get this thing in a case...
There is a company making a Melko brand leather book case that looks promising, but it also is a photo of the chubby one. Ive emailed them asking if it has been redesigned.. Lets see what they say..
I got the Acme Slick Case from Best Buy. It's not perfect but it works okay and for 15 dollars you can't complain. I figure it will do me until some custom made cases come out.
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product...spx?path=acafc0b74bca603fcb15b1e5c38b547aen02
Looks nice, but still waiting for some more cases
i ddecided to go with a belkin 10" neoprene sleeve off of Amazon for $8. It is a bit too big, but it does protect the tab and you can fold it in half, prop the top of the tab up and type in an angle.
I'm a fan of sleeves (as opposed to form fitting cases), and I hunted up one of these at Best Buy yesterday. It's very well made and fits perfectly.
Just got my case in the mail today, works beautifully. has 5 cc slots on side and a big pocket for whatever you may need it for.
might return this when Zagg comes out with a case (as mentioned in another thread), but for now this will do perfectly.

quietglow, thanks for the heads up. I just went out and picked up same sleeve, fits great and I really like that it doesn't look like a computer related accessory.
I'm the guy who sent his GT-P7510 to Zagg. Judging from their other offerings, i would expect just an invisiblesheld not a case.

Looks like it fits nicely, how tight is it secured in there given that it seems it may have been for the thicker version.
Let me know! Im ready to checkout my amazon cart!!
Thin book case will come out from Samsung when the tablet does

Etsy Pouches

For my previous tablet and phone ownerships I've always opted to go for cases in order to protect my devices. For my previous Xoom i went with the bulky otterbox and for the nexus 4 I went with the Acase Superlaggera.
For the nexus 7 I wanted to go with something lighter and less bulky. I decided to just go with a Spigen screen protector for the tablet itself and to get a leather pouch. I began looking at puches on etsy. These are the ones that I was looking at:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/1145958...type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_search_type=all
http://www.etsy.com/listing/1089440...type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_search_type=all
They looked nice but were ultimately too expensive. I decided to buy the following one:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/1586918...type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_search_type=all
The shipping was really fast. The pouch protects the device pretty well and holds the tablet snuggly. It has some sort of felt material for the inner part of the pouch. The only negative I've experienced is that the leather is easy to mark but I guess it gives the pouch character.
Here are some pics:

Hii
Well I did not like it that much the inner material does not look quite good one and even as you said the leather on it also gets easily marked..and I checked it its of $ 40...I would say its quite expensive one as on behalf of its quality....well rather than going with this one I would like to prefer again the same , this portfolio case as I got the same kind of one for my S4...its worth of cost and even good of quality too...
Dont Mind if you didnt like my review, its just my personal opinion..

yeah I also went without the logo. Red inside (GO TERPS) for me, but I went no logo becuase I read that it was 'painted on' and if I'm spending more $$ I was expecting sewn in, so it wasnt worth it. Quality actually looks really good from online though. Should be in in about 2-4 weeks so we'll see

colored ones are on sale :victory:
Why would anyone buy the bumper or any case from them, their products are terrible and can't even handle being on the device they are designed for.
After picking up a bumper for the N4 and getting a replacement that also self destructed I'll be going for a s-curve TPU case that I have used since my nexus s days.
Poetic makes great case and their customer service is good as well. They rectify issues if come up. I would not hesitate to purchase from them. There is not many company out there like this, who actually care and revise their cases. It happened on my Revolution Nexus 7 2nd Gen Screen protector, they replaced it two weeks after my purchase.
Plus, their Bumpers look brilliant on my Nexus 4.
No combined shipping? .
I'm happy with the n4 bumper I have from them. Granted it was the third one they sent me before finding one that didn't fall a part right away.

Agreed on that Neo Hybrid. It's beautiful, but way too big. I've switched to my Supcase Unicorn Beetle case. It's a good fit in the hand, but the power button is so hard to press. It's nearly impossible to screen shot with this case. Shopping around for something else. Had my eye on the Poetic bumper. Wish they'd have black instead of gray for the secondary color, though.

I ordered the Poetic Palette case. I like slimmer, hardshell cases and the Palette seems to wrap around the top and bottom better than most hardshell options. I've also never had a sandpaper case before and I've good things.

Yes they are, I have one for my Note 3 that I use a lot and I have one on my 2012 N7.
I also have one for my 2012 N7 and have been anxiously waiting for this. I would prefer the red, to match the other one, and my phone case, but I might just bite the bullet and get the black. I'm tired of dealing with the piece of crap Asus travel cover that's a pain in the butt. Plus I got an email with a $5 off code that expires Monday. So if the red isn't out by then, black it is.

I wish Amazon had this cover on sale. The SEIDIO website prices are a little too high. Had this cover on my 2012 model and still has on my Note II. Really good cover.

If wireless charging works with other cases I don't see why it wouldn't with this case. It doesn't add that much thickness to the back of the device.

Did it. Bought the black one with the multipurpose cover. A little too costly but I know this cover is worth its price (have been using it on my NOTE II and used it on my old nexus 7).
Thanks for the coupon code guys. Appreciate that.
I like the case. If it ever falls below 20.00 I will grab one. That's my max for the Nexus 7.2 since It only cost me 150.00. I was willing to splurge a little more for the Nexus 10 or the Nexus 5 since the investment was larger.
Thanks for the excellent pictures!

I ordered the case then a few hours later I regretted not ordering the multipurpose cover and emailed seidio requesting cover only.

Real wood backed cases

So I saw this on Amazon and am very tempted to check it out. Some reviews for an older version say its not very well made but this looks like a revised version. Anyone got one? Love the official wood backs on the moto x but they aren't available in the UK.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00HFFY05Y/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_m0e4sb0YAV16X
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41E7ft6HcZL._SL500_.jpg
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/810qJa9x8GL._SY600_.jpg
So my case finally arrived from boxwave. Its very well made, it has a silky texture on the plastic edges and the back has a rubbery feel texture over the bamboo. All the cut outs are precise and neat, boxwave logo even looks pretty good. It snaps firmly onto the phone and I think it looks really premium.
The plastic is slightly raised above the screen at the front, leaves the top and bottom open like a lot of hard cases.

That looks pretty awesome. I would like to see more pictures from the front though. Really need a case that can protect from a fall unfortunately.

My coworker has that case on his Nexus 4. It's pretty nice. I just don't like the logo on there.
Yeah agreed about the logo. I'm waiting for pay day to order one. I'll post some pics when I get it ?

So I saw this on Amazon and am very tempted to check it out. Some reviews for an older version say its not very well made but this looks like a revised version. Anyone got one? Love the official wood backs on the moto x but they aren't available in the UK .http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00HFFY05Y/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_m0e4sb0YAV16X

Ha very true! Also I read that all bamboo dies after about 10 years because it is degraded from the inside out by a fungus.
Wish someone would make a oak or beech back...

Wow, didn't know that. Learn something new every day.
I'd go for Cocobolo Burl. Coolest looking wood I've ever seen. Of course it's super rare and probably costs more than gold haha.
Yeah that stuff looks amazing! Very regal, type of thing you'd find on a baroque period dresser or something. I think really I want a moto X but moto maker (which you use to order custom colours and wood backs) is USA only right now.

Yeah, if they made a case out of that, I would jump on it so quickly.
I want to like Motorola, but after the hellish experience/treatment/neglect/no updates/etc I had with the Atrix 4G, where they just abandoned it after less than a year and pretended it didn't exist.... I don't think I'll ever buy another Motorola phone ever again. That cost so much (bought outright) and was so disappointing, it just turned me off to them (they do have the best USB cables out there though!).
