Hello all, th7s is my first post to xda so please excuse any errors on my part. Now down to business. I own a galaxy note 2, the sph-l900 version to be more exact and over the last few months the xda community was able to put popular demand to UAG's attention. UAG finally released a note 2 case as a result, and as someone who owns one I have to say, I love the case. Now if you go to UAG's site you will see they make an ipad case, my goal in this post is to guage how popular the idea of a UAG case for our note 10.1's would be. If we can get enough people on board maybe lightning will strike again and we can add UAG to the growing list of cases for the note 10.1.

For this being your first post it sure looks familiar http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219394
Please tell us ....... What make this UAG case so special that you post almost the exact same thing 2 times since the the 3rd of April.
For a minute I thought I was Bill Murray in the movie Groundhog Day.
.
I don't think he's bragging about his UAG on his Note 2. I guess he just wanted feed back on how many of us would want a case from the same manufacturer for the 10.1. Seems legitimate to me, but he should have bumped that thread rather than starting a new one. We write this off to him being new... Now I suggest he contact a Mod and have him/her close the older thread as it has comments.
I would live uag for my note 10.1 ..I have it for my s3 and love it ...it will be perfect if they come up with uag with a kick stand .

My apologies for the mix up. I post the April third post then posted here as I realized this was the appropriate section. I would like to point out at no time was this post intended as bragging, I use my UAG note 2 case everyday and think that the design is great. Just wanted to know if there were people out there who felt the same about a UAG case for the note 10.1 is all

I'd love to see these guys make some cases for our phone
http://www.more-thing.com/en/
I sent them an inquiry seeing if they have any plans... anyone had experience with them for the phones they do make cases for?
I just checked out their cases..they have gr8 cases..I hope they make cases for the nexus..I will send them an inquiry as well....

I used their case on my iPhone 3GS. It was a really nice case that looked great. When I bought the HTC EVO i told them how much I liked their cases and hoped they would create one for the EVO. That never happened and unfortunately I don't think it will for the GN either. I hope they do because I would buy one.
Got a reply from company
Dear Mustafa,
We would like to tell you that we will not manufacture case for Samsung Galaxy Nexus at that moment. Thanks.

Yeah, I got the same reply
Of course, the name was different
Shame, because I really would like a nice black leather pouch like the one that they have for the S2 (out of stock).
does anyone can give me a review about this case ?

I've learned to not use those mesh type cases on my phones during to a not so good experience before. After several weeks of use I took it off and left some circular marks on my phone housing. Since then I stayed away from them. No experience on that particular one though but it may be the same

Into Mobile did a review on it. I can't post links, yet, so search the title: "Samsung Galaxy Nexus hard case claims it’s genuine – we don’t care either way"
Hey fellas,
I finally made the switch again over to android.
I have been contemplating this for quite some time now and I just had to do it with the Nexus at $350 & I can not wait for it to arrive later this week. + i missed the xda community
I was a former Captivate owner then jumped over to the iphone 4s for a test and now I had to come back. Cant wait to start flashing roms (a little rusty since im sure things have changed in flashing techniques since I left) so a lot of reading to catch up on :good:
Never been a fan of touchwiz or any carrier implemented interface over android so this will be a great change having a pure google device for once.
Also what would be the best cheap case I should get ?????????
Just wanted to introduce myself on the Nexus forum and hope to be pretty active here
UPDATE: I ordered it on Saturday Oct 6th around 3pm ....anybody order it recently ? How long did it take for it to arrive because I haven't gotten any update as of yet??
Plus today being Columbus day I think there it wont be shipped out till tomorrow?
Welcome! This is my favorite stop for smartphone info...
The gnex has been my favorite android phone. The screen size paired with SwiftKey made for an easy transition from my droid 2's qwerty keyboard.
Your gsm version will get better battery life than sprint / verizon. I would suggest bugless beast with trinity kernel, screebl beta, extended battery, cpu spy, and better battery stats.
Good luck.

I know even when I didn't have an android I would still come and browse around XDA to see what I was missing hah...
& Great appreciate the advice, I will def look into that...
Goto diztronics and get a tpu for about $10.

Make sure you get a screen protector. Citigeeks has them for 5 bucks. Best 5 bucks I've ever spent

I can say 100% that the battery life is better on the unlocked gsm model then sprint or verzion. I had the sprint gnex for four months. i got tried of thier data speeds so i cancelled my contract and since my brother was ditching his unlocked gnex for the iphone 5. i got his phone and went to att
i know a new nexus is coming but i will still keep this phone. i absolutely love it. the battery difference is night and day for me.

I was thinking about holding off but I heard there were rumors it will be manufactured by LG? which I do not like as much. Also the $ was a influential factor, I can't justify spending $500+ on a phone so thought I would dive in now with the great reviewe's I've read.
Trying to sell my iphone for 300+ so it will basically be a trade off for me..
& thank you all for the comments. I have already ordered a case and screen protector from eBay so now i just sit and wait for it all to arrive :fingers-crossed: (the hardest part)

For 5 months, went without any scratches, then got 2 small battle scars when i friend knocked it over.
I got a casemate barely there black case. Google it. Bought it for €15

My favorite by far is the Otterbox Commuter case, just picked one up for $15. Feels great and feels secure.

Body Glove TPU at Walmart +/- $15 depending which store. Had it since march and still fits snug and looks good.

Nope nothing yet. By the looks of it, by the end of the month there should be plenty of choices for cases.

If someone can find a link or such to the detailed dimensions of the N7, I'll totally make a 3D-Printed case/Stand/Car mount set.
I'm more than capable of modeling these things, I just don't have a clue how to measure the chamfer and fillets of the tablet.

I can't post links yet, but if you go to Amazon, and use the following search queues, the cases should come up.
The first one is a jelly silicon.
The second is a TPU.
The third and fourth are snap-ons with thin profiles.
I hope this helps

I am hoping fro a back hard shell from Incipio. Already have an email out to them to see if they have any plans.
I posted on the OtterBox fb page and they said "We don't have plans for that device right now, but we'll certainly keep you posted on any changes!"
I emailed Gumdrop about a Droptech and they replied "Unfortunately, at this time we are not planning to make a case for this particular device. Please check back on our website in the near future for any new updates!"
I would like to see the case mate tough make it to the n7. I have the case on my note 2 and really like it.

How much would you be willing to spend cuz CF is not cheap. with the limited group that would buy the cases would be a minimum of $60. While it would be nice, id be just as concerned of the CF resin getting scratched as i would the device itself.
Im waiting for Seido's refresh to last year's N7 http://www.seidioonline.com/asus-google-nexus-7-active-case-black-p/bd2-csk3asn7-bk.htm

I have a brand new rugged case (the black and white one) it has the inner plastic then the rubber goes over the plastic. I am giving it to the right person. All I ask is you to pass it forward.
Tell me why you need it in the comments
Sent from my SM-P600 using XDA Premium HD app
I need it because I'm the first person to reply. I don't have a sob story or any real special need for it besides wanting a case for my new 10.1 2014 that I bought (after coming from the 10.1 OG) so I won't do you the dishonor of lying to you. I would treat it nice and when I'm done using the tablet and case I will donate it to charity in a few years.

I would like because I'm just getting my first Samsung device in the mail soon! I ordered a 2014 Note 10.1 After selling my iPad mini retina to pay for it. I hopefully can be a lot more productive for school with it. It would be awesome to get a case right off the bat so I don't have to worry about dropping it going to and from classes.
l always wanted a rugged case for my tablet which i am using the while day as it is my phone, reading material, reference and my entertainments. I basically carry it all the time. A rugged case is the most suitable case for me. But, sadly as i researched online I will cost me a bomb, 3x time more expensive compare to normal book case. I am using one with Rock Case as the brand name. The material is starting be feel rough and will start to peel off soon.
