Where to buy OEM Official Samsung Leather Pouch ?

Hi all,
Sorry if this was asked already, ive been searching all over the accessories thread and cant find one about the particular leather pouch im looking for.
Does anyone know where to buy the OFFICIAL Samsung leather POUCH? (in BLACK)
The people who bought the S2 from India recieved it in their box as per this thread:

I'm NOT looking for a CASE/protector because i'm used to carrying my phone in a leather pouch (ala the official one that came with the HD2 - coincidentally i'm USING the leather pouch from the HD2 but it's still too big for the S2 so i'm scared it will slip out)
I cant seem to find anything about it online - I've checked ebay as well
All i can find are 3rd party ones that I dont really trust so i really want to try out the official Samsung pouch since it was made for the S2
Thanks in advance for the help!

Samsung EF-C1A2L

I'm looking for this pouch too and didn't find anywhere to buy yet.
Here is tan version: http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-s2-leather-pouch-case-tan-p29969.htm
EDIT: Black: http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B004ULZB36/ref=cm_cd_asin_lnk

I feel the tan version looks classier although it may not suit everyone and depends on your mood whether you like it or not

Yes, you are right. I prefer to wait for local retailers.

I got this from Amazon.de
No problem with the pouch but I didn't like the design. No way you can put your earphones when the phone is in the pouch. Also charging
Felt like it was not a good buy

Does it have a hole for rear speaker on the back?

No. It is a full concealed pack like your wallet. No holes whatsoever.
Would recommend you to try before buying. I made that mistake of not trying

Is there also a case that can fit the official car holder?
I want a case / like a skin to protect the sgs2 but also can fit the carholder..
I also consider a (leather) battery cover; just for a better grip; the sgs2 is so light that it can slip away when u use only one hand :-(

So it is not exactly same as pouch of India release. I really don't know why Samsung included pouch for India release only while UK is the main market.

just to warn you, dont be misled by the title in this Ebay item, as it is saying i9100... IT IS NOT, it is the KOREAN MODEL and the seller is still insisting it Works on the i9100 perfectly.,.. IT DOESNT
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...9&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123#ht_7936wt_905

Why not? This Korean version case fits very well for my i9100.

Gelaskin review/install

Hey guys,
Got my hands on a custom galaxy nexus gelaskin for my device and im showing it to you on this review/install video.
I aint gonna lie it looks pretty sweet.. only down side is the fact that the little top part of the gelaskin( a little strip) kinda overlaps a little bit..I like the fact that im rocking it with my SGP case right now and its double protected from the back.
I usually dont rock the front part because i like the black front but def looks very cool
Enjoy

Great review.
The one thing that I like about Gelaskins the most is the fact that the skins are removable so no need to worry if you screw up (like screen protectors) and that they have some texture to the skins so you can have some grip on it.

Interesting
would it interfere with a case like the commuter

I tested it on the gsm and the phones are pretty much the same size..So as a personal experience no..there is no difference..specially cause gelaskins are selling just one type that fits both

One thing to add to rault's response is that, if I am right with this at least, the only difference between the GSM and LTE versions (when it comes to sizes) is that I believe the LTE model is thicker. In which case it shouldnt cause an issue because the skin just goes on the back of the phone (the door and the beveled edge just around the battery door)

Thanks for the replies guys! Im really tempted on getting one of these. I have a Phantom Skinz cover for my HP touchpad and I really dig the quality. I would like to get another but those dont cover the front panels (Which I really dig). Im just a little concerned about quality when comparing the gelaskins to the phantom skinz and the vast price difference (Almost half as much). I know 15 bucks isnt much but im trying to tighten my wallet a little

When you say quality, do you mean the print quality of the skin if making a custom skin? If thats the case then you don't need to because when making a custom skin and you upload your own image a popup comes on screen telling you how good the image would look with a "good" for mediocre images and a "great" with high quality images.

Its more about the material itself. Ive been rocking the Phantom Skinz on my HP Touchpad for about 8 months now and its still going strong. With that said, im not slipping the tablet in and out of my pants and constantly using it like I would my Gnex. Im afraid how well it will stick over time and weather the colors will fade or discolor.

My custom Gelaskin should be arriving any day now. I'm wondering if the textured backing of the GN will show through or should I get a smooth battery cover?

You wont really see the texture of it (unless you angle it JUST right for the light to hit it) but you will definitely feel the texture of it through the skin.

Which Case for Samsung Galaxy S2 X T989D

Hi - could someone advise me which case would fit the Telus Samsung Galaxy S2 X?
I am in the U.S. and bought this phone but need a case.
Would one of the popular ones from Amazon fit?
Thanks!

if you phone the same as t-mobile galaxy s II, look here

Well that's the Issue, I was hoping someone here would be able to tell me if it is the same and same cases apply.

Yes, the same cases for the T-Mobile T989 will fit the T989D for Telus perfectly.
I ordered my Seidio Active Case with Kickstand and Holster from the US and it was specific to the T-Mobile T989 model and it fits perfectly.
The phones are identical, the only difference is the writing on the front of the phone. Mine says Samsung at the top and nothing at the bottom, just the settings, home, back and search buttons. I believe on the T-Mobile model it says T-Mobile at the top and says Samsung at the bottom. Other than that they are the same phone.

If you have doubts you can always walk into a t-mobile store. I'm sure they have a live unit on display you can hold your's up to for comparison.

They are 100% the same
As stated above, the only cosmetic difference is the T989D just says "Samsung" at the top of the screen where the T989 is branded "T-Mobile"

make sure you dont purchase a case for the att skyrocket. its external speaker is on the opposite side.
the skyrocket and t989 can use eachothers roms, radios, but not cases.

Thanks for the feedback, I went with the TPU best selling case for this phone from Amazon to just keep it simple

I'm looking for an extended battery set with cover for the T989D (samsung galaxy S2X)
Of course the market has only sets for the T989 minus the D.
Are you saying that the dimensions of T989 and T989D are similar enough such that the battery cover will interchangeably fit?
PDADB.NET seems to indicate otherwise, as the dimensions indicated are different.

They are physically the same phone. I believe I have a seido (sp?) 3800 ext battery and case if interested. Otherwise, I have a BNIB CDMA Gnex ext battery that will fit with stock cover.. some may need Minor mods. but if using a case then doesnt really matter.

what case do you have working with the T989D with extended battery? (just to clarify, case = full body case, NOT a battery cover).

All Verizon Galaxy Nexus accessories are compatible with Sprint Galaxy Nexus?

agreed & hopeful, as i just ordered some screen protectors and cases.

all the accessories will work, but they are all ****. Wait till you can use the 3 prongs, as far as cases and **** yeah they work.

has anyone tried the Verizon extended battery on the Sprint model? It doesn't work on the GSM so might not work on the Sprint either.

my opinion is that gsm is a smaller model, verizon and sprint are cdma/lte/fatter model. i imagine everything should fit....

The Verizon extended battery cover does not fit the sprint galaxy nexus. I went to a Verizon store to see if it would, and the cover tabs do not align properly. You might be able to grind the one tab that is misaligned, but the cover wouldn't fit as snug. The battery looks like it fits, has nfc and the same electrical specs, but the part number is not the same for the 1850 mAh stock size.

Thanks, was just about to pull the trigger on one. Shame, I really want the 2100 mAh battery.

Sucks was hoping that the verizon battery will work on sprint. Guess have to wait then

So even though the Sprint and Verzion websites list slightly different sizes I would be fine getting this case? http://www.shopandroid.com/seidio-active-case-with-kickstand/4A54A9572.htm

The LTE Extended battery does NOT fit. As a previous poster said, the tabs on the back cover are different. Also, the cover is lighter in color. The sprint galaxy nexus is a dark titanium, where as the Verizon is a lighter titanium color. So we just have to wait for sprint to release there own version, if they ever do
As for the cases, those should all fit fine. I have the Rinke *sp* and that fits good. it snaps in perfectly, but since there is room for the extended battery, the lower back half has a little flex if pressed on.
I also have the incipio NGP and double cover, both fit perfectly

I just went to Verizon and got the car dock. Works and fits perfect..

Verizon accesories
My preordered phone arrived on Friday. I rushed out that evening to find a screen protector and case. I found the ZAGG screen protector at Best Buy but was disappointed with the case that they were offering. Luckily a Verizon store was across the street. I was offered 6 different cases. I went with an INCIPIO DOUBLE COVER. Fits like a glove.

Extended Battery
The cover does not fit but if you cut off the two little tabs it does fit. The extended battery does also work. I've been using the regular and the extended since Friday. It also works if you get the seidio extended BT Case Cover or the Ringke Slim Case CDMA version.
It looks better with the case on than the VZ cover. I hope sprints makes an Extended cover.
I hope this helps.

soooo.... pic 1 kinda looks like ass.... is that AFTER cutting the tabs????
i tried this myself in the verizon store it didnt look like it would fit right.

All those pics were taken after cutting the tabs.

Wow. If that's how the VZW back fits around the Sprint CDMA Camera, these two phones are vastly different in size.

I ordered the verizon extended battery and cover and cut the two tabs off, it works fine and does not look like it would come loose. I also ordered the siedo surface case for the Verizon phone with extended battery to hide the ugly verizon logo ;-)

Don't suppose anybody out there would make a battery door that would fit the verizon battery, only instead of having the verizon logo, have the google logo like the GSM?

I use the original back with the extended battery. It fits with just a very tiny bit of bulge.

Do the Euro Note 2 cases work for the US Note 2's?

I am looking on ebay for cases for the AT&T Note 2 but some of the cases say (only for the n7100) and very few sellers acknowledge i317..

I know some people are not tech savy but I don't want to buy a case that's slightly off (specifically a flip case that replaces your back cover)

Not talking about size, im talking about the way the back cover goes on the GN2 for the flip case. Are the clips in the exact position (Euro vs Tmobile)?

Bump,
Can anyone with an AT&T GN2 confirm that the n7100 flip case that goes in place of the back cover is compatible?

Its just the Galaxy S3 the deisgn and size didn't change even if some of the innered are different, you can use cases and backcovers just fine.
I got a Canadian Note 2 and bought the official Samsung flip cover and reading the inside of it, it actually reads N7100 as the model number on the flip case and I got that from my Carriers store.
So any cases or back covers you order for N7100 will work for i317/M

Phones are all exactly the same except for Verizon and their funky home button.

Then why is it that ebay sellers say their cases are only compatible with the n7100 and not other sub models? That's why I'm skeptical in buying a case...
