Hello all, I know that the Moga Pro fits the Note 3, but does it have enough room to hold one with a case, like the Spigen Neo Hybrid?
Also, a couple of questions about the controller, does the arm "lock" into the open position? Like when it is open with a phone in it, and you shake the controller up and down, does the arm wiggle back and forth a bit? With the phone in it (and a case hopefully), is the whole thing balanced? And would it be top heavy?
I have a moga pro (I also have the pocket, which is junk as it lacks an HID mode) and I assure you it will fit. The clamp is advertised to hold up to an 82mm phone, but it actually opens up to about 90 mm. I have a spigen slim (adds about 1mm to each side) and theres still about 5mm of leftover space (see pic--I jammed a piece of lego in the gap, so you can get an idea of how much open space there is).
The arm is spring loaded, so it always wants to return to the most "closed" position, when you put the phone in, the clamp wants to return to it's most closed position, so it grabs the phone and holds it in place. The arm does wiggle around--it has two angles that it "locks" into, one at about 90 degrees (kinda pointless angle imo), and one at about 120 degrees; however, if you shake it the phone it will still wobble around, especially a huge phone like the note.
And yes, with the phone in, it becomes very top heavy. If you place the controller on a flat surface, and the phone it at the 120 degree position, it will immediately fall over--I think it does this regardless of the phone (maybe with the exception of a "mini" phone, or iphone). And it does feel a little awkward to use for this reason--but it's a little inevitable. The only other option would be to make the controller heavier to balance it out...

I've used the moga pro with my n3 with all cases it even fits my cheap defender style case which is like a brick so it should have no problem fitting the spigen case as all their cases are pretty slim line

So my hunt for case started a day after i bought the tablet. i found this one at amazon for 15.99. i was skeptical but being a college student. don't really have an option money wise. So i ordered it. Got it today and i love it. it looks like a book which i love. feels durable. and best of all i can detach the flap and still have it in case. it has cut out for all the ports speakers buttons cameras and so on. for 15 bucks it is not bad at all. has three positions to be placed. i rubber band thingy to hold the flap when closed. and the flap the puts the tablet in its case has Velcro so it wont fall out.
you can but it here

Looks pretty decent.. hows the rear camera cutout? Does the TF fit snugly or is it kind of loose? And are there cutouts for all buttons/ports?
I think that I have just found the same case at ebay:
I cannot post links...
just search "asus transformer case"
it looks like you might be able to undo the velcro and stil use the keyboard dock with it. Do you know if you can or not?
Yes I would like to know if how we can use the dock with this?
i dont have a keyboard dock guys sorry. but yes im can undo the velcro and you would be able to plug it in.
I have this case i purchased off of ebay...Its good, not perfect, but good. I don't have pics as I am at work, but you can look at his and see what I am talking about.
The button idea is great. The one thing that this case has that the other do not is the ability to rotate and prop up in portrait or landscape. Th downfall to this is that the button, while holding the tf in place, pulls against the case some, so it stretches a bit around the button. I also worry some about the long term affects of a button pressing into the back of the transformer...I've had it for a few weeks though, and it seems fine.
It fits well, with all ports available. Because it can rotate, you can charge it with the case closed. The option to remove it is even better, because then you can read and such without having the whole case on it.
The case doesn't really cover the edges well without the extra cover. Alot of the edge is exposed. However, I could see a plus side to the way this case is designed. I don't have a dock, but I feel that if you unbuttoned it, and undid the velcro at the bottom, you would be able to dock the tf with no problem. Someone else would have to verify this...I think you could even leave it in the portfolio part, just slide that under the dock. All ports are available, and there is a cutout from the inner case that lines up well.
It props up well, haven't had an issue with that, in portrait or landscape. I use it all the time, and its a great help.
So, for whats out there now, this is the only rotating case I have found. Its a good idea, and works good. The case is pretty solid, as in stiff, but not extremely thick, so that has its pluses and minuses. Overall I would give it a 4 out of 5 stars.

jateelover, can you please post a link to an ebay auction of this case, or the seller name?
I would like to buy it, but there are too many cheap transformer cases on ebay...
I've been searching around trying to find a typical vertical charging dock/cradle for the Samsung Galaxy S II that would fit a Galaxy S II phone with an Otterbox case on it.
The case adds a fair amount of girth because of the silicon and plastic layers that go on top.
I've tried a number of docks made for the Galaxy S II, but they're all a snug fit for the phone normally without having a case put on them.
Has anybody found a dock that fits the phone with the needed room to spare for the case to fit?
i havent found one either but after a while of searching i stumbled upon this and liking it so far!
Its just a very little stand which holds the galaxy sii nicely and its very very cheap.
It looks nice on my desk

Although stands are easy to come by, one that provides power as well seems to be the challenge, at least one that fits my phone with the case on it.
I'm near the point of fishing out old Lego or such to find something to lift my phone a few inches off the table, holding it upright vertically with space under it to run a power cable.
I found it annoying that the power/usb jack had to be on the bottom of the phone. It wouldn't be so bad if I could place the phone upside down 180 degrees, but the android OS doesn't seem to rotate to 180 with vanilla OS, nor most apps like to rotate to 180.
I think completely upside down would be annoying over time. You can enable 180 degree rotation in CM7, but I haven't tried it, so good luck.
FWIW.
So far my only solution has been removing the otterbox case which sort of defeats the purpose of it.
I find it odd that I can't seem to buy a simple phone dock that gives enough space to fit the phone.
I guess I'll have to build a dock out of something like wood, lego, etc. or buy a cheap car mount and find a way to make it free stand on a table to give enough space to put a cable into the phone.
This dock is deliberately built a little larger and has a rubber part so it can hold phones with cases.

Not sure if it would fit with the otterbox though as they are quite bulky......however you can't expect a dock to be made for every style of case

Thanks for the reply. Hard to tell if the dock would be big enough or not. But much thanks.

Hi Dave,
I had similar probles and created a wooden dock with large adaption capabilities. Unless the otterbox dock isn't thicker than 8mm it should be OK

Just wanted to throw out there that this case fits well and seems to be pretty high quality. I like the extra grip on the sides and it isn't bulky. It's a thin cases about like a tpu or silicone, but made from stiffer material, snaps on pretty snuggly. Anyway, with the very small selection out there, just wanted to mention that this case is decent if you want something small and it does still work on the wireless charger.
I got mine at Amazon because it was cheaper $15-$16 and had free shipping. But their picture doesn't offer much detail.

Thanks for the quick review. I just hesitantly ordered one off ebay, but after this and a quick YT video about it, I feel a little better about it.

It does leave a mark. The button on top makes it very easy press the power/lock key, but on the whole makes it easier to press all the external buttons.
This case is excellent. Makes buttons EASY and has nice lip for screen. Very good protection and doesn't add much mass . Seriously I'm very happy....and surprised

case fits and feels great. Only two gripes are as mentioned above the case does leave marks and when texting in landscape mode I tend to hit the power button accidently pretty often. May be just how I place my hands but I find myself hitting it alot
I'm very careful with my phone, but would like to have some very light protection from a case. What are the thinnest cases, preferably clear or anything that goes well with the style of a black note 3, that are available?
Ideally I would just have a clear "bumper" style case that protects the silver outside edge of the phone, which also keeps the screen off of a surface when set face down. (or perhaps even something that snaps in and replaces the back cover while also protecting the sides)
But if you don't know if anything like that specifically, any and all suggestions for very thin and unobtrusive cases are appreciated!

Spigen Bounce, I Have it and i Love It!
I'm rocking a Puregear slim shell case and love it. For me it has enough protection but still gives you that super slim feel of the awesome phone we have. The back is clear and has a few nubs that keep it from getting all scratch up when you put it down and it has enough of a lip that it protects the screen if you lay it screen down (even with a tempered glass screen protector). The rim of the case is a soft silicone and the back is a polycarbonate. The fit is perfect on the phone and you have perfect access to all of the ports, the hole cutouts are perfect, and the spen is easy to get out. One of the better cases I have bought recently other than my UAG. I got the one with the white rim but they also sell one with a black rim as well. Here is the link to the black:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00GYI2YT2?pc_redir=1397192822&robot_redir=1
For 15 bucks you can't go wrong. They even have a thicker case if you don't want the slim shell that's also nice. But if you go a little thicker I would go with a UAG.

I saw this at Best Buy, it's kind of pricey but it fit super snug to the phone and added minimal bulk. I was about to buy it. What do you think? It has the magnetic kickstand and also comes with the belt holster.

The case isn't bad but to me its kind of expensive. I have it currently but I don't use the holster. The phone also sits up off the table with the bottom higher than the top because of the kick stand and that kind of bothers me but thats a personal annoyance =) I do love the feel of the Ez Grip texture though, feels nice, and really easy to clean.
I bought this case n holster and I only use the holster. The case for me is to slippery. I got an lg circle case from sprint and fits perfectly with this holster.
Sent from my Black Lg G3
I got this case when I bought the phone simply because it was the only one available at BB. Have been pleasantly surprised although I don't use the holster. The grip is quite tacky so I feel comfortable when holding with one hand, yet it fits in a pocket amazingly well. Feels smaller in my pocket than my GS3 did with the body glove drop suit case.

The Platinum from Best Buy is just a rebranded version of the Seidio. I got the Seidio and love it.
I love these cases. My last 4 phones used these cases . Saved my butt several times from dropping onto the ground and grandkid(s) abuse. Use with care , screen protectors have a tendency to lift on the sides when putting on or taking off this case.

Looks good. But it's too bulky for me. But thanks for sharing
I almost bought this, but have Amazon prime & knew I could wait 2 days. I bought 2 cases, 1 being a Folsom case (I think it's Folsum) & the other, same idea, not sure the brand, but the second one uses the rubber flaps like over charging port. I also bought a 10 pack of skins. Of course it's really a 3 pack as I won't be using purple, pink, yellow etc. I prefer the skins as I'm extremely careful with phone. I use no screen protector either. Only spent about $20 for the total of 12 cases. Good deal.
