TPU case from Verizon

I picked up a perfect TPU case at Verizon for my Xoom Wifi. Just letting you know if you aren't looking for the book style. It was unbranded so I have no clue who makes it. Its thick and fits like a glove. The color matches up perfectly. Its like a tinted smoke. Also comes with a screen protector. It's not great but works. Doesn't cover the entire glass. Just the screen.
It's really glossy and grippy. Smooth and doesn't attract lint. Looks great and doesn't detract from the sleekness of the xoom.
Its not on their site. I just walked into my local Verizon and asked to see all their xoom cases. Got sick of buying cases from the web to receive them and find that they suck.

looks realy nice! how much was it? I have the black silicon case from verizon and I dont really like it as much lol

It was more than I expected, 35 bucks with tax I think, but the fact is that it's really nice. Words to describe this case are: Rigid, smooth, grippy, classy.
those black silicon cases are no good. They are all floppy and collect lint. TPU cases are where it's at.
The guys working at the Verizon store I went too were pretty lame. I asked if they had xoom cases. One dude said no, then another guy said yes and sends mr. no over to this cabinet. They weren't on display at all. He opens the cabinet and I had to tell him which one was made for the xoom. He didn't even know what a xoom was. It was wierd. At any rate, they had a folding book style, then this TPU case.
Since I had no luck buying them from Amazon, even after reading good reviews I went on a mission to find one locally. This is the only case I'll ever need for this thing.

Oh wow thats quite a bit. I hear you on TPU being better. I have a case like the one you have for the xoom but its for my thunderbolt. I dont use the silicon xoom case as much now. I been using the folio case with the built in stand from verizon. Great combo with the xoom keyboard when you need a stand.
But I like your TPU case more lol. Good find!

They sell the same cases on amazon and Walmart for around fifteen (stupid xoom won't let me put numbers ...or backspace).

That's not really descriptive. When you buy from amazon, it's not always amazon. There are tons of sellers and such. You could have bought it from a bad seller. Not all are the same. Like ebay.

I bought it from the same company in your amazon links. It's ok, but the one I got from Verizon is better. And they are definitely NOT the same thing like you mentioned above.
No. I don't work for Verizon. I sell licensed t shirts wholesale for a living.

ebay TPU case I bought from a US seller for $7 fits like a glove. Same TPU case i have on my EVO.

Just got my case today and it's awesome. Just as good of a quality as a $25 or more case. Combined with my invisible shield, I'm good to go. Here's some pics of the front and back. My camera had a bit of trouble focusing on it. As I was trying to keep myself out of the pic.

[Q]Good Xoom Case/Portfolio

Just ordered a Xoom off of Woot. Can anyone point me to a decent quality case or portfolio? I'm not sure as to who makes good cases for the Xoom. And I'm hoping to not spend more than $30.
Speedily sent from CM7 Beta

Best Buy has the Motorola Portfolio Case for $20 right now, its fairly decent for what it is and is definitely a better price than its MSRP of $40.

I've heard good things of the slim AYL case on amazon. Should get mine next week. Apparently they offer you a free stylus if you post a review too.

+1 on the AYL case at Amazon. I paid $25 delivered and I'm pleased with the case. No funky smells, has cutout to access the dock connector, charge port, etc. while in the case and with the case closed. The case will take a bit to "loosen up". Recommended.

I had the Motorolla portfolio case first, it's ok but after a while it started to slip a lot.
Then I went to the ZooGue case, http://www.zoogue.com/products/XOOM-Case-Genius-Black-Leather-.html
I was a little skeptical of a velcro setup, but it really helps keep it stable. It has the cutouts for charging etc. You can easily move it to pretty much any angle you want very quickly, and it will stay there.

Just got my ayl case and i love the slimness of it and the way it feels when folded with the case behind the screen compared with the plastic bulk of the moto one. Definitely recommend it! Oh and open charging ports definitely a big plus ;-)

AYL case
received mine today after reading good feedback over here. Quality is top notch, would highly recommend to all Xoom owners. The only thing I was unhappy about is postage costs ( $31 and it's not as if I am living in Africa or the case weighs a few kilos...)
So if you can get it posted at a reasonable price - go for it, defo the best case for Xoom

There are several leather case for xoom. http://www.digglove.com/tablet-pc-a...m.html?sgmid=d11867ce71291fe4da6d557a119e3df9
good price. each case is less than $16. and the shipping just $2.99. Black 360 Degree Rotary Leather Case With Fur Inside for Motorola Xoom especial this one is very excellent.

I am liking my AYL case. Charging cutout, nice leather feel, stable prop, good angles... What more do you want in a case?

After contacting the seller got a half price refund on postage. Excellent service and product

I can say stay away from the official Moto case - about the only thing I like about it is that it protects the device well when it's closed.

coming from the otterbox one I like the Motorola one as its smaller and lighter, however it does suffer from slipping and I'm not keen on the fact it covers the ports on the bottom. The device also slips down in the case when you fold the bottom section down.
Think they should put groves in the side of the unit so cases have something to grip on.

I ended up ordering the AYL case from Amazon after reading the comments here. It is nice and thin, but sturdy. Fits the Xoom well. I highly recommend it.

Hey guys...does the ayl case allow for docking on the moto dock while still on? I have the zoogue case, like it a lot but i would like to be able to dock while the case is on....

There are some nice gel cases on ebay

I just replaced my original xoom portfolio case with the AYL case. I think it's a great value. The fit is excellent, and the current version has a cutout for the charging and usb/HDMI ports.

Cheap cover from Amazon

Just received a cheap cover from Amazon and very impressed. perfect fit. gaps where gaps are needed. all for a couple of quid !

you can get 5 of them on ebay for about £7 in 5 different colours.

If you want 5 .... in different colours ....
never sure if these all come from the same factory or whether everyone just makes lookalikes....
Just pointing out that this stockist has cases that actually fit. cant vouch for any other suppliers.

Thanks! ordered one until I can get something better (although it really doesn't look bad, especially for £3!!!)

Ordered! There are many similar cases on the internet but I bought this because this case fits perfectly.
Thanks!

Got one of these for a couple of quid off ebay and was pleasantly surprised. Wish it didn't have the shiny bits on it but it's a good case, fits perfectly.

Got the same case from same seller as the OP.
For a temp case it's bang on. Fits fine. Not too ugly. Dead cheap. £1.89 total price paid, shipped same day in a plain small jiffy bag.
Don't think there are any premium options at this stage either. The Casemate gear advertised on MobileFun and Expansys isn't in yet.
Now about an official charging dock and car mount...

I am using exactly the sam case, it seems to be of decent enough quality. All the right holes in right places and right size. Like you say it fits absolutely perfect. I particuly like the bits over the power and volume buttons and the texture for extra grip. This case is an absolute bargain costing me less than £2
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Got the same case as op bought off ebay all of the cases looked exactly the same.

why are all these cases making access holes for the dock connectors, when if you have a case on your phone, it will no longer sit in the dock?

I got this case in the post today and it fits perfectly.
Not too shabby for a temp case. Definately makes the phone easier to hold. Doesnt feel like its gonna slip out my hand anymore!

Think I am going to have to get a few.

Another positive experience here. Mine arrived today. Phone feels so much more solid in the hand. Thanks for the tip.

mine arrived today. Used link from the OP. Well pleased with the fit and look of the case for the price. The added grip is also MUCH appreciated!
Thanks again to the OP.

I guess there could be third-party docks that can fit the GN with a case on. Just need to make the fit loose enough and have long pogo pins.

Ive got the same case too and can confirm its a great fit and will do me until a proper good case comes out.

Quick update ... a few days in (and several times taken off and put back) and it hasnt stretched or warped at all ! very impreesive for the money

I have this case it's excellent. Fit is very good and it's very light. The sides have a little texture which makes it easier to grip and the button covers provide just enough resistance that I no longer have pushes happening when it's in my pocket. I was skeptical when I ordered it but I really can't think of anything I'd change about it - it's a fantastic case at a ridiculously good price.

I think im going to order this sucker right now!

Wonder how this one stacks up against the $10 one from Diztronic? I have that model and it's also a pretty nice case. Think I'll go ahead and jump on one as well. But I'm still looking for something in the Aegis/Commuter range for protection. Anyone seen either of these two floating around? For some reason, I'm just not feeling the Case Mate offering. Maybe I should re-think that!

Is it that same one as this one: http://www.amazon.com/S-Line-Shell-Samsung-Galaxy-Sprint/dp/B005U30660/ ?

Looks identical - I expect they all come from the same factory in any case. But why get it from amazon for $7.50 when you can get it on ebay for $2?

Just ordered my Epic Touch from Amazon yesterday (upgrading from an Evo 4G).. figured at this price, it'll at least be good enough to use until I find one that I like better... if I dont like this one

Whoo got the the case today and it feels amazing on the hands.
I sometimes think the phone is to thin and I can't grab it so well. I have used it for an hour now and I could already feel myself enjoying using my phone alot better.
The phone has some grooves on the sides that feels pretty snug and some what rugged.. Maybe it's so it doesn't slip out of your pocket. Which will benefit me since I use the phone for music and the gym alot.
Now I can lay my phone down on the counter with worrying about scratching the screen or the camera

Best galaxy note case with integrated stand?

I've seen a few cases - even a clear transparent TPU one - with integrated pull out kick stands for the Note. Any views on which is best?
I'd post some here but being a newbie xda won't let me post links.

I was thinking about the zenus slider kickstand case in white but it look like it adds some bulk
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

I don't think there's "best case" in this case...it actually depends on individual...
There're lots of case with stand/kick stand and the best way to look for it...is Ebay.
I'm currently using this:
http://cgi.ebay.com.my/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270935540723&ssPageName=ADME:L:OU:MY:1123
Althou it's a bit bulkier, but it's all round protection which also cover the audio jack & microusb port. It can stand vertically and even horizontally. I feel secured when I'm holding it and playing games with it, feels like holding a PSP...LOL
Just my 2 cents...

If you just want a case with stand to watch your videos at home, instead of propping your phone up against a coffee mug etc., then this case is ideal.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Combo-Cas...lePhonesCasesPouches&var=&hash=item84bb134430
Just received mine today & was surprised how good it is, especially at the price. All the cut-outs etc., are perfect. Just a word of advice, when fitting your phone in the case fit the top end in first, the plastic is stiffer at the top, then the bottom just clips on easily. Will be purchasing another as a spare.
Update.
Sorry guys. Seller has now upped the price from £1.99 to £3.99. Still a good deal though.

Not got this case, but it looks nicer than the other case with stand that you see on ebay. Might order one, but looks like it will come over on the slow boat....
