Hello all
Got tired of not finding the right case for my Transformer so I decided to mod one for my needs.
I bought the Targus Spruce EcoSmart Mini Messenger Case for Apple from Target over the weekend. It was $24 so it looked like a good bargain. Google
The padded compartment that would fit the Ipad was too small for the TF so what I did was turn the case inside out and cut the edges of the compartment so the tablet can fit. Since it was double stitched the protected foam did not come out. Then I carefully unstitched the part that was still attached to the interior lining. I was worried that the zippers would scratch the sides of my TF so with the remaining lining I had taken out I glued it to the inside of the zipper. Is a PERFECT FIT.
Here are some pics to illustrate.
Here is the bag inside out. I cut both edges of the padded compartment, unstiched the excess and glued a piece to the zipper.

Here is what it looks like with the tablet

Picked up one of these (Size Small) from amazon and it is real nice as a small tablet bag for the Prime, with full arm strap. A little pricey, but Highly recommended. Great build construction with lifetime warranty to protect the prime, and 2 side pockets for the charger and phone. It's smaller than it looks in the picture- just a little larger than the tablet itself
Insulated very well inside with well constructed bubble membrane foam, to protect the tablet from vibrations.
My Prime has a leather case and it fits great inside this bag !!! A nice compromise between a sleeve and a full size laptop bag, with still a good amount of room for charger and cable! I think the Prime with the Keyboard dock should fit nicely too!

about $34 with shipping
I have one of these. It holds everything very tightly. The front flap is a little flimsy, but functional. The pen holder release switch is very small. You have to grab it with a fingernail. Overall, it's not too bad. Wouldn't hurt to be a few bucks cheaper though for what you get.

yeah im sure you can buy direct from china for less but i like supporting real American sellers, heck its cheaper then the $50 piece of cardboard case they tried to sell me with my Note
Just received my Caseology slimfit TPU case from Amazon and took a couple photos of it (with my SGS3) for anyone interested.
It was only $5 including shipping, and arrived in 4 days. It actually feels very nice in the hand for a cheap-ish TPU case, with a nice amount of grip (especially on the sides), and there's no annoyingly sharp seam around the edge (unlike some ebay tpu cases). The back faux-leather texture feels nice, but it's obviously not as nice as real leather. The leather pattern is very dense, as you can compare/contrast against my genuine leather sofa in the pics. This cheap case was supposed to be my temporary case, but it's nice enough that I'm actually thinking about returning my more expensive Spigens...

Pics with the phone in the case? Just ordered it and it would be nice to see how it lines up with all the holes n whatnot.
I was thinking to make combination protection for mah LG G3. Buying black carbon fiber skin from Slickwraps then slap on one of those two bumpers (probably black too.)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nillkin-Sli...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item4ad98230c0
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ultra-Thin-...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item4ad96ace4d
I am still not sure which bumper to buy, Nillkin looks great but its kinda bulky, and other one is total opposite of that. And if could somebody just tell me if both bumpers are really metal.
What do you think? I am in great dilemma.
EDIT:
I noticed Nillkin isn't really metal so I will order other one.
Will also post screenshots when combo gets shipped to my country
i tried that combination, but didn't like the metal (aluminum) bumper
it's the "quick lock" variant of the slide case, but those are almost identical in form factor (i have both)
imho they destroy the ergonomics of the phone, so using it without any case now

Hope it wont bother me too much. Can you remove your back if you put all parts of skin on your phone?
Ordered the screen protector from Aliexpress along with Mipad4.
Got it from here.
What came with the item, standard wet / dry naps and sticker for dust.

Advertisement says .3mm but its .5mm, rarely does the thickness match the advertisements.
.5mm has no impact on touch sensitivity.
Pic with protector - Top
Its not edge to edge and not beveled "2.5d"
Pic with protector - Bottom
Edge bubble seem to be fading.
Its pretty much a standard screen protector for like $3 and under $5 with epacket shipping took little less than 2 weeks to ship usa east coast), I got two and would buy again.
I bought thise one:
https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/BINF...542.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.31ae5c0fiDoj7L (2 pcs, now 6.74$).
Fit 100%, easy assembly without bubbles. My old stylus pen works bad.
