While it is listed on Amazon it's from a third party seller and availability is listed at 3 to 5 weeks.
I'm waiting for it too
i heard it will start shipping between may 4th to the 6th. Am waiting to get my hands on one as well. Am not happy with the current price point. Especially the amazon price. I have seen others online with way less. Maybe the price will balance out once it is release. But it's a good investment, considering the device it is for. That's less then a best buy insurance for a year. So i won't mine buying one at that price if it stays that way.
The tech specs show the case as .84" but I think that is without the stand. Anyone hear how thick the combination of case and stand will be?
Looks like this case is for folks with hard wear situations only. No sure how appropriate it will be for normal use. Thoughts?
i do believe it's on the thick side. as most of the outterbox cases are. they sometime makes lighter version. but i mean for what i spend on this baby, i'll want to get the best jacket for her. it will keep her safe from everything, weather to falls. even the dog. lol
MobileCityOnline.com is taking preorders at 69.99 and have a in stock date of 05/06 listed. Think I'll pass on the rooCASE now that I know when the otterbox will ship.

I saw some decent kickstand cases for the SGS2 with AT&T, but I have not been able to find any yet with the TMO version. Please let me know if you find any out there specially made for the TMO SGS2!
I'm having major kickstand withdrawals since upgrading from my EVO 4G.
Oh and I'm looking for a landscape kickstand, not the portrait kickstand found on the Body Glove case in the TMO stores.
Same here, would love some kickstand

Bodyglove makes one, Its ok.
T-mo sells them in store for a resonable fortune.

Oh, it does work for landscape mode? Nice!
Thank you for the pictures. Can you post one of the front of the case? I want to see how much of the bezel it covers and if it gets close to the edges of the screen.
The only thing i dont like about it is that the top and bottom arent covered.
The inside has a felt material to protect the phone from the case.

I tried it on my phone and it felt incredibly cheap, tacky color/design, and lack of real protection. If it fits your needs then awesome. For me I am kinda rough on things and like protection all around. I can appreciate the usefulness of a kickstand.
I also would like a little more protection. It seems like most of the kickstand cases are hard plastic, but I at least want a gel/silicone insert something like the otterbox commuter often has.
Hopefully they start actually releasing some good cases for this phone soon.

Case-Mate has them. Depending on what carrier you are on some are available now. The T-Mobile one is coming soon.

Oh, the black and white ones don't look too bad at all. Price is a little high, but this is very close to what I'm looking for. I really like the grippy edges. I'm hoping that a case will make my power and volume buttons a bit harder to push on accident (which I am constantly doing).
I like the case mate one also and I found it on sale:

That is a good deal alright, but that case isn't for the T-Mobile version. Those are still listed as 'coming soon' on the Case Mate site.
lol...that i didn't know..guess can't get it for cheap yet.
Casemate is still taking forever to get their T-Mobile cases out, even after some rumors that they were coming a couple weeks ago. http://www.case-mate.com/pulse/samsung-carriers.asp . Looks like if it does come out, they will be asking $35.00 (same as Sprint and International price).
Trident said they were going to do their Kraken kickstand case for the TMO SGS2, but then when it came time to ship cases, they ended up only shipping the Aegis case (no kickstand) (http://www.tridenteer.com/categories/Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-(T%2dMobile)/ - $29.95).
But it does look like Seidio has finally shipped a kickstand case, http://www.seidioonline.com/t-mobile-samsung-galaxy-s-II-active-case-black-p/csk3ssg2tk-bk.htm . There is a review for the case here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1336684 . Priced at $34.95. There is a 15% off promo code for this case, "Winter11".

I've placed my order for the Sapphire and Amethyst ACTIVE cases from Seidio. There is one review in the linked thread with pictures and then only one other user who made some general comments.
There are no reviews yet on Amazon, but the cases are listed there for the same price (no promo code). Amazon has the black in stock and the others shipping in 2-3 weeks.
I have the Seidio Active, switching from Ballistic. There is a big difference in feeling, mostly due to the Ballistic being so big and harder to press the buttons. I needed something with a belt clip, and I've gone with the Active series for my last 2 phones (HTC Sensation, LG G2x). It's a great combo all in all.

I couldn't keep waiting, so I got the Seidio Active case and I'm quite happy with it.
Just found this new case from their Korean website, anyone knows how to get one if you don't live in Korea?
http://www.zenuscase.co.kr/front/php/product.php?product_no=1138&main_cate_no=1&display_group=2
Just order it my friend from the international site www.zenuscase.net. With EMS it came in just one week.

Unfortunately the new one on the Korean site isn't on zenuscase.net yet, it's a different version. I too would like to know where to buy this new Block Folio on the Korean site, it's amazing and exactly what I was looking for.
Ok I seriously need to find this case,
http://www.zenuscase.co.kr/front/php/product.php?product_no=1138&main_cate_no=1&display_group=2
If there is anyone in S. Korea I can pay to ship this to the US for me I'd compensate.
Do you think this case will trickle down to the international site? Here is the old Masstige Block Folio on the international site, http://www.zenuscase.net/product-29997.html
You're actually getting synthetic leather for real leather price? Okay, not quite, I had to check the folio case again, $25-$30 calculating inflation. A bit surreal in favor of a design but I suppose coming from Korea is better than alike cases from China. Boy do those stink, literally!
For me, the new design's elastic band closure is a fail already. Short term expectancy fine, however long term is not suitable. I've had my eyes on a Zenus real leather classic diary case myself, and contacted a seller on ebay for a discount 'cause I'm getting one w/ a few other items on her e-store. She agreed and gave me -9% off (Zenus' site) everything shipped from Seoul.
So I'm pretty sure the case you want will show up on ebay eventually. Do you have the patience for it? You know a lot more are coming out when AT&T launches their release, right?
You could take this opportunity and befriend a Korean ahjumma at church or Korean supermarket, and probably get this even sooner. LOL! I'm thinking outloud to a scene what I will do if I'm in a rush for one of these puppies.
Have you found any other photo of the case? For example how it looks open, the back cover etc.
It's also on ebay

The only site with photos right now is the Korean Zenus site. Can't find any reviews of this new Block Folio case either. There is a youtube video which showcases how it opens and looks (located on Korean site). But as the user above me incorrectly posted, this Block Folio is NOT yet available through eBay.
I sent a customer service email to Zenus requesting additional information regarding the new Block Folio and it's availibility outside of Korea...I will share my response here when I receive it.
Received a reply from Zenus Customer Support. New Block Folio is active on International site via here: http://www.zenuscase.net/product-30006.html
Ordered mine just now. I think it's a bug for the color selection they have "Real Black.Fierce Red" listed as one color option. During the checkout of both the site and PayPal, I put under the notes that I prefer Real Black. I also replied to the customer service agent from Zenus and let him know of the web error to help ensure the color preference of my order.
You can dog the synthetic leather or the poly bottom casing, but its a fine case for $29. The folio I've been waiting for.
Btw, tried dealing with Noreve as a substitute...they suck. Worst customer support on the planet.
Ordered a brown one myself, looking forward for it to come soon
This looks good!
For use as a tablet and for use with a Bluetooth headset; but how the heck would you ever use it as a phone (say headphone dropped connection) with this case?
With case closed it still has a cutout for the speaker. Both mics are uninhibited when closed as well. Just got this. A Sennheiser VMX 200. And a Freedom Pro BT keyboard. Excited

Thanks! I just ordered one of these as well. I already have their two genuine leather cases (carbon and vintage) but they both have magnetic clasps and I am starting to wonder how they might affect this device. Looking forward to going magnet-free with this case.

Nice to know the case can be used closed.
I was thinking of upgrading to either the jawbone era or the vmx 200. How do you like it? Does the bluetooth 3.0 actually make any difference in real life use?

I will let you know Wednesday when the VMX 200 arrives. But from what I've read and seen you can expect incredibly fast power on to pair times as well as what should be improved battery life.
I am considering ordering a Zenus case from their website but live in Southern Europe. Has anyone ordered a case from Europe and knows how long it would take for it to arrive approximately?

VMX 200 work fine with Note? You like?
Wow that looks classy
This is a stupid question but here goes... does anyone know if you can flip the front of the case around the back? Seems like a given, but the only pictures show it either closed, open on a flat surface, or open used as a stand. None of them show the case folded fully around the back...

10/10. Pairs in half a second. Amazing call quality and volume. No callers have complained yet.
If you like watching movies, I think this case will be of perfect use to you. It comes in two colours - White , Black

You are right but the reasons i posted are:
Amazon sell it cheaper
Amazon have it in stock while mobilefun has it as pre-order
Finally, Amazon ships worldwide while Mobilefun ships only to UK and EU
just bought one. cant believe they had them in stock, too bad its 30 day delivery lol.. ohwell, i bought it none the less
heres their website for full selection btw

I can't believe how many cases are made nowadays without protection for the full front of the phone!!!!
flip cover
i don't know what your planing on doing, but the flip cover works pretty great if you don't set it on a really slick surface
I really like this case probably helps I got it for free but you can use a coin E.G 50pence piece and stand it on there pretty cool feature.

Hello everyone,
I was going through videos on youtube of SGN 10.1 cases and I found this one, and I gotta say that this is one of the most interesting cases I've seen! The Korean website listed that it will be available September 14th (thank you google), but their international website listed the availability as early September. I'm definitely itching for the black one! The pricing might be a little high but it's better than any official Samsung case I've ever seen.
Do You know if portrait is possible with this case?
Judging by the pictures and the video they provided, I doubt it's possible.
Nice but I would prefer a simpler version without exterior stylus holder and without hand strap as elastic tend to stretch over time whereit'll evetually be a dangling mess.
There have been several posts regarding Zenus cases already in the Cases thread, you can all find more information there.
Yes, I understand that this thread is related to the Zenus cases ONLY and I think it's a good idea to have a specific thread where the owners of a Zenus case can share their experience etc. The above was, again, just a notification that you can find more information in the other thread.

just noticed the international site has changed the availability date for the Lettered case from "the early of September" to "the Mid of September" so the release date of the 14th sounds about right
Not sure about this one. Notice that it's not leather but PU leather. This in itself doesn't mean anything.
They most likely will have another higher-end line with real leather veneer for these also. They will run about $120 US, but they will be MUCH better quality all around and a different design. You can get an idea by searching on Ebay for other tablets, phones etc.. It's actually pretty confusing, so if you do this, take your time and look very closely. Unfortunately though, going by pictures isn't all that much help i'm afraid.
Just aheads up.
The case in the link looks pretty nice though.
Yeah I was pretty disappointed when I read that it was "synthetic leather", but it still looks good. I'll see if someone will post a video review of the case when it becomes available.

Real leather would be better for this particular design given the burned-in emboss look. I think this case will be 'ok'. The leather ones they release will be 'fantastic', going by my albeit, somewhat limited experience.
But then again, this PU job may be great. Don't know.
Also, it's perhaps useful to know that the genuine leather cases that Zenus does sell are really a leather veneer (like Vaja cases). This is ok for a tablet case as they can make them rigid and therefore lightweight. All leather cases can also be really nice of course, but it's probably going to be a traditional portfolio rather than an exposed bezel design.

Thats great news! Being lefty, that is just what i'm looking for, still waiting for mine to arrive. Thanks.
Some more sharing...
Pros:
1. Stable stand in both viewing angles. Can support palm resting on it when writing.
2. Hard cover offers good protection to the screen when closed.
3. The elastic band allows holding the device in one arm easily.
4. Fit the device well. Easy to take out the s pen.
5. Professional look
Cons:
1. Considerably heavier than my expectation. (Well, you need to pay for the pros)
2. When holding by left arm, must be in portrait orientation due to the position of the elastic band.
