Hello,
I'm looking for a good cover for my new Mediapad M2 8.0". Seems like there are very vew to choose from and Nillkin hast nothing yet? Do you have any suggestions? Also I'd be thankful for any recommendation regarding screen protectors. :good:

Hello,
thanks for your reply Eagle-no1! I might try your recommended case soon. :good:
Meanwhile I ordered a glass screen protector from "Wunderglass". It fits just fine and although I missaligned it a tiny bit (probably 1 mm) I'm pretty satisfied with the outcome - there is only one small air bubble in the upper right corner of the mediapad. A little warning though: I had to disable "prevent pocket dials" in the settings of the mediapad which is fine with me as I only own the wifi version. I'm sure this is due to my not perfectly aligned glass protector which now touches the proximity sensor very very slightly. My bad but I can live with that.
I paid 9.95 Euros for the Wunderglass, bought it from Amazon Spain, in case someone is interested...
As for the desired case I opted for one that is originally designed for the Thinkpad 8.0 - a little experiment, that cost me 3.80 Euros. I haven't received the item yet but will let you know if and how it fits.
The attached pictures show the "Wunderglass" and it's packaging which imo is pretty decent.
Greetings

Hey just came across this full body shield on ebay. The price is very affordable to anyone but the big problem is that they only ship to India. Anyone has previously purchased from them and do they ship worldwide?

Which one can be fully covered device? as I see mostly covered but there are little surface will not be covered by film...
Xtreme Guard's shield does not fully cover the Note. Only the lcd and battery cover - very disappointed.

After I use the hair dryer and some stretching....my skinomi carbon fiber skin covers about 99% of my phone....so I would think that their transparent one should do the same

I went for one of the gadgetshieldz.com clear skins.
I gave up trying to get the side pieces to sit correctly.
I didn't bother with the battery cover option as it would not look right on the textured finish.
In the end I just applied the front cover.
My thoughts after a couple of week usage.
It marks up when using the stylus (which I do a lot) and doesn't heal.
I have not used the stylus for a week (on purpose) and I can still see the words I wrote previously.
The overalll size could be improved, it is approximately 0.38 mm too narrow all round and you get an extra lip which is very noticeable when swiping.
Just my tuppence.
TAD
I tried the iDefense carbon fibre skin. It's very difficult to apply at the rounded edges, and overall it makes the phone MORE SLIPPERY.
Zenus luminous fullbody
Im using my ZENUS LUMINOUS-A FULLBODY SCREENPROTECTOR on my SGN and it is awesome
Hi,
I just got my SGS2 and wanted to order a case for its protection so I took a look around and found this from Astrobile. ( Google it, forum doesn't let me to post url ) It's pretty awesome on paper, cause i didn't get it yet, but I looking forward it is indeed cool.
They have a 1 plus 1 event now, so you can get 2 for a price of one. They also include 2 screen protector with it. It's Made in Korea.
Why is it Hybrid? Its made of plastic, but at the back of it there is a metal plate which "make your device looks slimmer". Imo it could also helps keep your device cooler. My SGS2 is getting real hot when playing constantly for an hour or more.
Im already excited about it, can't wait to get it! I will update when i get them, they said it will take about 10 days.
And the best of all, there is free shipping to worldwide. Of course you can take a Express Shipping, but that's not for free...
Arrived!
Hello!
As i promised, i will write a mini-review according to my first few impressions about the case when i get it, so here you are!
First things first, it has arrived fairly quick according to it was a free shipping. +1!
It has came in a pink plastic bag, nothing special. The package of the case itself is nice, suggests quality, +0.5!
The first problem face me when i actually opened the box and got the black case in my hands. I noticed it is kinda thick,-0.5, and has some shimmering material mixed in the black TPU, -1!!!. This is weird, but must be the Korean taste for beauty...OK.
The next thing I didn't like about thie case was it thickness, ok I already mentioned it, BUT the holes for the buttons are also that deep that they're hardly accessible. They could have made some "case-buttons" or I don't know the expression for that. -1!!! Maybe something like on this one.
The metal backplate also has some color transition from black to silver (mostly silver for a "black" backplate), and I don't like it. I have to give a -0.5.
Alright, enough of the CONs, let's see some more PROs. This case is not that bad at all. Its Sturdy enough, but still flexible so I can believe my phone is protected from small height drops (if not landed on the screen - tho the case has some edge which laps over the phone, so if you turn it face down, your screen won't be scratched, also the screen protector is there.) So this worth a +1! The touch of the material is good, less slippy then the phone naked, but still not as good as it could be. (Maybe my hands are just to small for such a huge screen and while im tryin to reach the other end of the screen with my goofy fingers it just wants to slip off of my hand. - So I won't give penalty on this.
The matte screen protector included is absolutely superb quality! It has a really nice touch, a colors doesn't distorted and it's free of any oil, fingerprints, +1. Tho I have to mention that on the website they were talking about 2 screen protectors will be included, this is a -0.5...
And of course don't forget about the extra case included with every purchase of this model from the color of your choice (even the same your ordered originally). They have black and white with various backplates.
I won't give penalty points on this, cause this was a gift
So, the thing is it is kinda the same as the black, since it also has that crappy shimmering thing mixed into the material, but it is less visible than on the black one. Backplate is the same aswell, weird color transition...But again, it was gift. So it is OK
The Verdict:
Summa Summarum, the case has finished with a +1 in its stash. My impressions is just confused as this rating.
I like it a bit, but I don't think I will stick with it too long. For a first case it's just perfect, since my main goal is just to protect the phone, and it does the job well. Tiny imperfections like the deep button hole is a thing i could get used to by time, not really a big issue.
Next time I will definitely go for a bumper-style case which preserves my phone's slick for factor, which I love.
Here you can see some high-res pics of the cases.
Hope you found my very first review helpful! Please press the "Thanks" button! Cheers I'm off...
P.S: This is my 10th post, let's celebrate :lol:
The phone + case look rather thick on the photo's. Is the mic on the upper side not covered? There is no picture of that.

Hey!
Thanks for the input! Yeah, sorry I forgot to mention that, actually I didn't even knew that is a mic also!
Returning to the topic, yeah the case also has a cut for the second mic too!
Can you please tell me what is it for?
the second mic
the second mic is use for the noise cancellation feature.
if you want a cheap and cheerfull hybrid case then look for a fake sgp neo hybrid case
if you want a more exspensive hybrid case look for genuine neo hybrid sgp cases
a fake one will cost up to £12 and usually start at about £6
real sgp cases will cost you £18-£22 and no less
iam using a fake neo hybrid at the minute as i broke my genuine one and its a pretty good case for the money , it fits standard battery and 2000mah battery , its lasted a good few months and has kept the phone pristine , it covers the phone well even with the 2000mah battery
they are the best hybrid case ive found and add minimal bulk to the phone , look good , fit nice , protects the phone from drops and if you buy a fake one you can get them for pretty good prices
That 'shimmering' effect looks nasty. It's good that you get a second case though.
i think there are better cases out there and at cheap prices, but in the bright side it does look nice.
Hello everyone! I am going to present you my new case.
In the 20th of March I ordered the genuine Orzly hybrid fusion bumper case with the clear rear panel.
The case arrived at my home (I live in Greece, the case came from the UK) at the 24th of the same month while the delivery was estimated between 26/3/2014 and 1/4/2014. So it arrived two days earlier. Excellent service!
The cost was 8.5 euros.
The package was a big folder with bubbles and it was inside a transparent bag with the Orzly logo.
The case had a protector on its back to prevent from scratches, though I had to remove it because it was full of bubbles, so I couldn’t keep it as it was.
Some small defects were on the rear panel, so I tried to remove them with a dry towel. The result was having some very slight rows (like scratches but really small and in hand you can’t feel them).
Then I washed the case with hot water and soap but nothing happened.
I was a bit disappointed but they are hardly seen so I overpassed it.
It is small and does not fatten the phone.
In the hand the feeling is very nice as the black part is smooth and a bit soft. In the touch it is like the original back cover of our Moto G.
The rear panel does not keep many signs of my hand and it is pretty nice. Especially for anyone who have bought a colorful back cover it will be awesome!
The keys are covered by the case but it is very easy to push them. Of course the ports are not covered.
Overall I am satisfied with this case. Far better in look and in touch from others I' ve tried.
Hope I helped with this thread.

Thanks guys.Very nice.
I bought the FoneM8 one and actually it is the Orlzy, but cheaper.
Came in the Orzly package and everything, the just don't want to say in the internet that they are selling the Orzly cover cheaper than Orzly itself

i have that case and i don't like it.
first of all it cames to me scratcht but it not happen to everyone.
The problem is that in my opinion now the phone are too big and it is hard to press the sides bottons.
I searched everywhere for recommendations for a case with OUT a cover. I wanted just a case that covered the back and as slim as possible and with some grip but NOT sticky. I took a chance and bought this case for my 9.7" because I'm new I can't post a link but search eBay for X-Line Shape Soft TPU Rubber Gel Case Cover For Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0"/9.7" the seller is hksanho I highly recommend it as it fits perfectly, is extremely well made (actually I'm shocked at how perfect the molding is) gives grip and is not sticky. I have a Gold Tab S2 and I bought the grey, it perfectly compliments it, further giving it the titanium look. Best of all it took only 6 days from time of order to delivery in Phoenix. I've only bought one or two things from directly from China and was extremely reticent to buy something I couldn't see or feel and not knowing if I'd ever actually get it in my lifetime LOL. Hopefully my post will help others and obviously I have no connection to the seller!
I agree
I purchased one of these cases for my Sony Z4 tablet quite a while ago; and it has been Fantastic! Super thin and fits Perfectly! I just bought one for my S2.
Thanks for finding the case. I was just trying to find out if the case was available for the Samsung - Really, I was!
Seems like the screen is the most vulnerable part. How does this kind of cover help?

After holding the tablet for a longer period of time i found the edges too hard. Based on your experiences would this cover solve this for me? Also if it would make the back of it a little less slippery that would be a bonus
yes -solves also these issues. thanxx for the tip, i ordered a black one these days. very pleased. feels like the light tablet in hands and covers perfectly my external charging pad, which allows wireless charging. very, very cool. for "expeditions" outside the house, i put the whole thing inside a book cover for protection, but at home the "minicase" is fine.

That's what tempered glass screen protectors are for, aren't they?
Also looking for the decent case with cover made by tpu or something. In germany there just a few available from which I already tried one but that one was not fitting well. Any tipps?
..this thread is about case "with out" cover ? - i bought my "x-line" at amazon.de, fittin' perfect..
I have recently purchased a ultimate shield glass screen protector that is case friendly from eBay for £10.99
The first 1 I was sent fitted perfect but would not stick to my phone so the company sent me another.
The second 1 stuck well but let dirt through the sides.
So they asked me to wait another week to try a upgraded version so I did and that arrived today. Although the sides are now black (previously clear) which fixed the dirt entering the side of the phone but none the top edges stick at all and there is far to much space between the phone screen and the glass so there's a clicking noise all the time when in use.
So I of course contacted the company again as I payed £10.99 and still my phone is not protected so I do expect a refund regardless to there help sending more out as they are not fit for purpose, I am thankful for them trying.
So the last conversation I had with them regarding a refund was they have yet another version of the protector they are sending out to me today to try so I shell receive that tomorrow hopefully and if it fits well I will upload pictures ect..
The bottom line is atm the ultimate shields glass screen protectors do not yet work for our devices so you may won't to keep clear for now if you have thought about buying 1.
Any updates please?

New 1 just arrived. I will be installing shortly. This 1 is described very different as a 3d silk printed / black
Just fitted this screen protector and it is the best I've had to date. It fits perfect! There is deffienetly no space between the glass. It fits perfect around the phone. The glue is much stronger than any previous protectors. The curve seems more of a curve than previous but I still am able to use my cafele case without any uplifting.
I'm extremely happy with this protector and deffienetly worth the £10.99!
I'm not sure what cases this will work with as I only have 2 slim cases and originally it's advertised as a case friendly protector so it should fit a variety of cases as there is a gap at the top and rear for the case bumber access. I will try and upload a picture of it fitted later today when I have access to a camera.
Ultimate shields seem to be a good company and will help you with any issues. I would recommend buying this version and if you was to go ahead and buy this model I would message them first and tell them you want the new version vimto25 from xda was sent in case you receive old stock.
Is it "Case Friendly" ?

I think it's a 50/50 situation. The first few I had of them was classed as case friendly and I believe they was very case friendly but as I stated they had issues.
This new 1 looks slightly less case friendly but I have a case on it and it fits to a T so I think it needs testing with different cases that I do not have. It has gaps around the top and bottom and the sides for a case to fit with a open top which I prefere.
I've just received a message from the seller after giving them my feedback. They have said it's not yet in production I am the first to of tried this. But they assured me if you message them with my xda username you will be send this new design of there's.
I hope someone with a few cases purchases this and gives there feedback on what cases fit and what cases don't.
Ordered one today and they are send me a development unit, thank you!
Just need to get the phone now....

Very good
Do you have any cases?
Well you've done it the right way a protector should always be brought before the phone arrives in my opinion ?
I have ordered the Nillkin Frosted Shield case based on the positive reviews in the other thread. Phone arrives tomorrow, and screen protector is shipping today so hopefully...... I always like to fit the screen protector straight away while the phone is new.

By the looks of that case the screen protector should fit fine
That was the plan ?
Just bought one of these and it fits perfectly with a uag plasma case. Thanks for the heads up
