Either Cruzerlite stole their design, or the other way around....

Hmmm, they all look remarkably similar in design & if it's not patented ...
Got mine from an Ohio-based company by the name of Fintie - purchased indirectly on eBay for $9 shipped free 7 fast, I like it - fittings are good & no complaint (better than Spigen's Hybrid Ultra. Maybe a bit "bulky" for some but feel solid & non-slip in my hands.
It's supposed to be impact/shock absorbing - even if the kick stand break over time on repeated usage, the soft TPU case can still be used on its own.

Cruzerlite Spi-force is nothing but generic case repacked. Check here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2549047
Bought mine from China on ebay for less than $3 with free shipping.

I ordered mine two days ago and it should be here tomorrow. There's a bunch of similar cases that all look to be OEMed by the same factory, with minor modifications to the kickstand area and "grooves" in the silicone. Google caught me off guard - I ordered my Nexus on Monday with a "ships by Dec 11", so I thought I would have it next week; it shipped the same day and arrived yesterday. I'm not crazy about the holster design (no positive retention), but for $9 I can always keep it as a spare after my Seidio Dilex arrives. I've also got a Ballistic SG Maxx on pre-order, which could very well get cancelled if I don't hate the kick stand on the Dilex (I'm not a fan of kick stands).

Cheap eBay bnumper cases, I got one, quick review with pics

The cheap eBay Bumper case I posted about on another board arrived today and it looks quite good until you pick it up and notice how thin and light it is which kind of goes hand in hand with it's massively small £3 price. It does the job fine on a S2 with the stock battery though but with extended battery the lip surrounding the front bezel is less pronounced.
It is not great with the Zenis dock either as it doesn't sit flush whereas the Zenis one does. I was expecting it to fit fine but the bottom is not sitting nicely like the Walnutt bumper does.
So far I think the Walnutt case looks the best and also feels like it's worth some ££ too. I especially like the lip bearing the Walnutt brand name on the back, it kind of completes an otherwise baron backside, something that the SGP NeoHybrid EX bumper lacks although I'm sure the SGP feels every bit as good and expensive as the Walnutt ones.
Considering the Walnutt bumper is thicker than the cheap eBay one I was surprised it was exactly the same thickness when put on the phone, I put it on my dad's S2 with stock battery to compare in the pics below.

Wow 10 pounds for shipping to Spain! What a RIP OFF. I'll write the seller and see what he says. I doubt though that he'll change the price. I've had books and computer parts delivered for less!

Mighty Pouch Phone Sleeve

Over the past couple weeks, I have been working with Mighty Pouch and making a custom neoprene sleeve for my Galaxy Nexus. They can pretty much do any custom case for anything. Ive been working with Scott Holmes from Mighty Pouch on this project and it was completed on Thursday. I ordered it and just received it today. The pouch can come in a select variety of colors, @ $14.99 and for any custom logo, its an additional $9.99. I am quite please with how it turned out and the material and stitching are top quality. The custom logo was not ironed on, they used a cad cut vinyl logo so it will not peel off. The phone fits in the case snug and the inside lining feels very soft and protective.

Nice looking pouch, but do you think that it is worth the 30 dollars (without tax included) that you spent.
Its was 29.99$ shipped and figuring the quality and ability for any custom logo, I feel it was definitely worth the price.

I don't normally say this but the quality is really crap. It is cheap but still not worth the money
The neoprene pouch has had a price reduction to 14.99$ and as far as the quality and build of it, definitely worth it.
Thanks for the heads-up... but
Looks like a great case for the Nexus.
But, $10 for USPS shipping?
Ouch!

How's the GN fit in the pouch? It looks a lot bigger than the GN in your pic.
Thanks.

was looking @ this before I saw this thread as it's pretty much the only one out there now...
I had pretty much the same one for my OG N7 and I liked it (has the magnetic turn-on/off thingy), But what I don't know about this one is if the rear has speaker/camera cutouts (can't tell), and I wouldn't want to get it if it didn't...
I have the black supcase for OG Nexus 7 and imo it is not the best case to buy. Quite bulky and the edges are not protected at all. I had dropped it 2 times WITH the case and the corners were still damaged. Another issue is that at the 2 magnets area (that hold the case closed) the soft leather became worn out soon and the magnets area is clearly visible now. Ultra slim frame case looks great though. But I would wait for a better shot.

I think I may go with this case too. I have a Moko case for my 1st gen N7 and it is nearly identical to this case and I am very pleased with the Moko case. I'm keeping an eye out for a Moko case but if I can't find one, I'll go with this one. Need to protect my new baby.
bought it
I bought this yesterday ill give a review on it when I get if some else doesn't first
I'm too new to post a link, but the MoKo case in black is now $3.99 + $4.98 shipping on Amazon with an earlier ship date.

basic tpu case with no flip cover?

Anybody purchased a plain ole thin, lightweight tpu case for their Note? Recommendations? I see one for sale on ebay, but it's only shipping from China right now.
I plan on using my Note in a Ram Mount in my car, so I don't want a flip cover, or anything too heavy. It needs to be grippy/sticky so it will stay put in the Ram mount too.
Update: I found this one on ebay today and bought it. Will let you know how it is.

Nice, I just ordered this too. I have a Fosmon TPU case for my Nexus 7 and it's excellent.
Awesome, thanks for the info, Colchiro and 30Seconds. I was not familiar with the manufacturer.

For us Canadians, Amazon Canada has the same case linked by jkwjkw, but with free shipping instead of the $11 shipping with eBay (for me at least, in Ontario). Shipped and sold by theWireless USA, who I've bought from before several times and had no troubles.
(Sorry, can't post links yet. Just search on Amazon Canada "Fosmon Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 case" and you'll see it, sold by theWireless USA).
Seriously, love me some TPU cases. Especially for a tablet like the note, where I have to lay it flat on a table to write on, I have to tape the camera lens so it doesn't get scratched. I have a folio cover case as well, but I find it lifts the tablet too far off the table if I try to lay it flat. Looks like this TPU case is the answer.
Got my case today, and love it. Perfect fit, all of the holes line up, case is snug, and it's lightweight. Recommended!

I've also ordered one, will post pictures/review as soon as it arrives
Came in yesterday. I'm pleasantly surprised with it all around.
Has a nice metallic color to it with a rubbery texture, fits well, nice and slim, though it's like .05 mm too thick to fit in my dock. Doesn't interfere with my Nillkin tempered glass protector.
It had a gnarly smell at first... It's much better now after 24 hours, but if you put your nose right up to it you can still smell it. Should wear off soon

Nice, thanks for sharing!
I ended up ordering a pouch instead of a case. In India I could order it online for roughly 5 usd
Its pretty good quality, phone fits well. So now I don't have to worry about scratches in my pocket or in the car cup holder.
It has a flap at the back for pulling out your phone which I thought I would cut off but I actually end up using it sometimes. I've attached a pic with the strap fully pulled out as well.

I ordered 2 of these a few days ago. Yeah at that price, it's a no brainer. Scratch protection at least.

I noticed when I lived in Germany that my chinese purchases would take well over a month to arrive, compared to 2-3 weeks in other EU countries. Packages would arrive at my door all at once, even though they were sometimes ordered weeks apart. I think what happens is china packets get stuck at German customs for a while. So that might have something to do with the seller's shipping restrictions - avoiding the hassle.
Here's the same case, albeit for twice the price ($2.60...), but you have more colors to chose from and looks like they ship everywhere: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/10-C...ony-Xperia-Z3-Mini-Z3-Compact/2041321566.html
