Best Rugged Note 10 Plus Case For Your Money -- Sorry Otterbox! - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Accessories

This case is something special. The phone is completely protected, and when I mean completely, that is an understatement as it has 20 feet drop protection!
Everything from the fingerprint sensor, the buttons, the charging port. I have huge hands but I have no problem to get The S-Pen out. I highly suspect others people with larger hands will have a harder time to remove the stylus.
Once you put this case on you'll probably never remove until you get your next phone as the removal process can prove difficult for some. For $20 and prime shipping, I don't see why anyone would spend more for less protection. An easy 5 stars, case closed!
And there is not screen protector comes with it. I think that a glass screen protector is going to be the way to go on this phone due to the stylus. If all other things were the only factor, the case is a solid choice for the money.
All in all, this case is a great alternative to the Otterbox Defender style case. . I am very pleased and for less than half the price of a Defender style case, this is beyond a good bargain.

Looks like a Supcase (Unicorn Beetle) Knockoff.

In what way?

Looks far too plasticy IMO.

I just received my Note 10+ Aura Blue and the black ArmadilloTek case. Pretty awesome case. Good grip, buttons are eat to push but don't stick out too far, easy to install, and good protection all around. I would definitely recommend for the price over OtterBox, it's not as bulky as OtterBox. Case isnt as big as the pictures look and the kick stand is strong. Will definitely be my daily driver case.
Here are some pics on my phone:

I was unable to get wireless charging to work through this case using 5 different wireless chargers so I removed it. Sturdy case though.

Love the official samsung case for N10 +

All my chargers work fine.
You just need to give it a few seconds to react, or you might need to rotate your phone a little bit.
My complaint is that the powersharing doesn't work at all.

I looks too "loud" for my taste. Been using the OB Symmetry case for a week now and I think it hits the right balance between a thin case but with some good protection. Very mature-looking.

Zizo Bolt has side protection higher than the display. It can soak up repeated drops onto concrete.

I just called them to confirm and they told me it does open properly with the case on. And paying 24.99 for a crystal case is rediculous.

I've seen those. What I'm more referring to is comparing it with and without the case. Same picture, two phones (or photoshopped together). Just to give a bit of scale to it

I just got mine the other day from eBay, and the front face doesn't fit all the way on or stay on. I'm going to have to return it and find another one.
I've finally tested this case for more than 10 minutes and I really hate the fact that the edges are not beveled in, making it extremely hard to use my fingers to press the softkeys on the screen, onscreen scrolling and some slight awkwardness when pressing the outside buttons.
Mine was also made of white plastic, so it has this ugly white lip around the edges.
After removing my BodyGuardz skin, the case fits snugly and is very hard to remove (I accidentally cracked the lower piece while removing)
Oh well, you get what you pay for. Time to read up on Seidio cases
http://www.wirelessaccessories.com/... 8925 - TyTN II - Kaiser&sfid=134039&c=164107
I've used these for my last 2 devices. I don't recommend the rubberized as they scrape up easy. While you get what you pay for ($5.95 + ship) so I buy several. I prefer the protection from scratches and ease of use . It does make getting to buttons a little harder, I agree.
I went on Ebay and got a clear one for around $4 shipped. looks decent, works, only thing about the clear ones is that dust tends to collect under them and phone looks dirtier. a quick clean and back to new. i dont recomend dropping the phone using the case, but in all honesty i dont recommend droping the phone all together.

carrying pouch (clip or loop?)

I'm looking for a carrying pouch for my phone.
The type I"m looking for is one that has loops for my belt to pass through. My impression is that the pouch with the loop for the belt to pass through is more secure than the clip-on pouch. I volunteer at a ambulance corp and theres a lot of running around and equipment carrying and things like that. Last thing I want happening is me squatting and accidentally squeezing the release trigger of the pouch with my thigh and upperbody only to have my phone fall off.
Can anyone recommend a good case for under $15 that has what I"m looking for?
Thanks
I too am looking for one of these. Let us know if you find one. At the moment I am using a Kathmandu camera case.
i got this off ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/Black-Leather-B...ries?hash=item5881d62264&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

fits just nice...
how is it? the quality and everything of it?
look up 'Golla' bags on ebay. they are cheap because a lot of them couldn't be sold (not many American retailers carry this brand) so the overstock goes on ebay. however, they are of good quality and the current one i've been using for a few years. the brand specialize in making/ selling bags of all kind. check it out

I use this when I need my phone to stay put on my belt while I'm doing something strenuous. The steel belt loop is nearly indestructible, and the Velcro takes a long time to wear out.

You my good man are a legend!
If you had ANY idea how long i've been searching and searching for somethine like this for my TP you'd be shocked!lol
this seems to fit the bill perfectly, will post back once my 'Golla Ruutu Brown' arrives!
cheers dude!
I just upgraded from the 6800 to the Touch Pro today at my local Radio Shack and got a case as well that has a good strong metal clip, both horizontal & vertical belt loops, as well as a small carabiner and pen loop on it. The flap secures with Velcro, but it has a buckle on it to help keep it securely fastened. I do a lot of biking (the mountain kind, not the motor kind) and needed a good case that wouldn't leave my phone in the middle of the woods somewhere. I think this one is almost perfect. The phone fits in snug, yet not too snug. The only way I would say it would be better would be if it had a softer lining inside it, it's not made for touch screens. Would recommend a screen protector, which you have on anyways, right? Thought so. ;-) Here is the manufacture's page for it. The model # is CI-RUGGED-MB. Only cost around $12, but it was at Radio Shack, and they charge over $100 for a 120GB hard drive that you can get on newegg for $30-40...
If you want a really goood case for under 15 bucks, i reccomend buying
this case from wireless emporium. Ive been using it for almost a year now, and it is extremely sturdy and durable, and only for 13 bucks, i LOVE it.
The best part is FREE shipping and you get it within a 7 days!

Anyone use the protective case?

I used to use no protective case with my iphone. just put the iphone on my pocket and that´s it. After 2 years of use, the phone it´s 95%.
Do you use any protective case with your HD2? could i use it the same way like i used my iphone?
many thanks
Best regards
What do you mean that your phone is 95%?

x2 Best case in the WORLD.
I use a screen protector for better haptic feeling while scrolling and better visibility in bright light (reflections) - and no more fingerprint smearing. And I keep the HD2 in it's stock pouch for additional protection. It's still very slim in it's pouch but quite well protected for the thinness of this little bag This way my phone still looks like new although I wear it in my pocket at work everyday.
Nah I don't bother, dropped it several times and not a scratch (touch wood). I don't like the idea of a rubber casing that I have to remove if I need access to the battery / reset button. I'll just claim on the insurance if I damage it
Ive got a tad bit different capdase case found here
http://www.capdase.com/en/product5.php?cid=1&bid=5&mid=321&pid=5156
-quick to put on and take off
-metallic backing that covers the corners for extra protection
-light weight and slim (hardly noticeable)
-rubber liner that surrounds device to snug case on (excellent quality)

theres finally a otterbox for our hd2's
found here
http://www.capdase.com/en/product5.php?cid=1&bid=5&mid=321&pid=5156
-not so quick to put on and take off (two layers have to be put on separately)
-plastic over rubber layers - but corners of device only covered by rubber
-light weight and not so slim - phone feels a tad bulky
-rubber liner that surrounds device also covers the keys (yay) but in doing so, block out the keypad led lights... (NAY)
IMO the capdase case is the way to go.
the otterbox looks awsome but it doesent protect the corners

WTF? explain please, i never heard of a phone having a health bar

i hate cases, it makes the phone ugly..
i didnt use a case since i have my hd2 now (7 months ) only one little scratch wich u dont really notice.
u dont need to use a case, its not only ugly, it is not even necessary
I use a leather case that I got off the bay for £3.99 yes I know it's sad but when my phones last me around 6 months I thought I best protect this one
In the past I have managed to drop a month old phone in a pint of cider, ran one over with a skip lorry, dog has eaten one, lost one in a flood when stuck in my car the list goes on.
Hang on come to think of it a case is not going to save my phone
i use the original one that comes with it ,fro 6 monthes now without an single scratch msa

Aww dang nice job though!!
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App

It only took a few hours to do. While it's not protective like a hard-case, it'll keep the dust off it as a place to store. It feels nice in the hand, has a better grip than just the tablet alone and looks classy. The tablet slips in and out easily and the added moleskin elastic band helps the flap from flopping around.
Nice job, I like it! I'm going for Acer's case however

That's rather neat! Tell her to knit the Acer logo into it, too!
That is neat and I bet it keeps it nice and toasty on those cold winter nights. (;
I love the knit sleeve!
My niece is a big knitter and my brother has a tablet.
I've got to show her this pic, she will go nuts.
Great ideas folks, loving the creativity!
Love the knit sleeve - I had a sleeve by Rogue Theory via Etsy for my iPad, it wasn't knit but it fit really snug which I liked.. Can't find anything like it for the Iconia, so this knit one would likely be just about perfect! I don't want a hassle with zippers or velcro!
Thanks for the great idea!
Not self made but I recycled a 10.2 inch netbook sleeping bag for my a500. I don't really care for skins, folio cases or silicon covers as I like the look and feel of my tablet so the bag works perfect for me, it's not a super snug fit but i welcome the extra space for my cleaning cloth and earbuds.
I got it for like 6 bucks at Ross
P.S.
That knitted sleeve is pretty creative but I wonder how well it would protect the tab if dropped.
Well, if it's going to get carried on the train or something like that, I put it in a netbook case, for the extra protection. But, to be honest, I don't think it makes much of a difference, so I try not to drop it at all

The biggest problem with Acer's case is that the tab slips out of it by itself... just sitting there.

My DIY sleeve and Stand
Hi all,
Just thought I'd share my DIY sleeve and stand with you.
The sleeve is nothing fancy but the cloth / foam / cloth sandwich construction makes it highly shock-absorbing. I used wrapping foam found in bubble wrap envelopes
the stand is a PU foam core with cloth cover. I used the official stand as a model, so the 70° "film watching" and 20° "reading" angles are the same.
Very nice, jodokus77. I especially like the matching stand.

also have the right to left open design.
I also have the poetic hardcover and it was 5 bucks on amazon. Works pretty good too.
I hated the Poetic. Finally settled on the Mercury. It is not leather, but has kind of linen feel, is well made and fits well, with a nice magnetic latch.
BTW, Samsung wants 60 bucks for that flip case... which is kind of a rip IMHO.
My Nillkin fresh case has held up well for me, but I acknowledge they're not of the best quality. The < $15 offerings I've seen don't seem to have great quality either, though I would be happy if someone had a counterexample.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/MERCURY-ORI...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item4ac66ab484
This one (Mercury) looks similar to the Samsung flip cases, though the back could be nicer and though I haven't tried it, I'm expecting it to have ok quality like the Nillkin.
The Korean wallet ones on ebay are nice but may be bulky compared to this one, and are more expensive (~$25).

I got mine from one through eBay. I ordered two and they replaced one but now say they'll give me a discount on my next purchase. Doesn't really fill me with confidence :/ . Do you still use yours? I do. I've just burned the edges to seal the open flaps. Scruffy but effective.
