If your talking about the wood one. Yes. I wish I kept it to take pictures. The regular micro USB chargers wouldn't fit either. You had to use only the stock charger. Gave my phone to my daughter and she dropped the phone on the supermarket floor and the case shattered.

Those same cases are all over ebay and Amazon. I had one for my Note 2 and once I put it on you could not get it off. Check how the metal tabs will dig into the wood. Had to break it in pieces to remove it.

Hate to be a downer, but I saw them in another post too. EBAY > http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Nat...t=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item54012f0d48
$9.99

Those cases are ugly. Lol.

some of them are quite nice. I really like the bamboo cases. as someone noted though one drop and they shatter (although in their sacrifice they leave your phone unscathed)
a bit of warning though. quality varies IMMENSELY from maker to maker and its almost impossible to tell them apart so when you find one you like order a couple more.
I will be getting the compass one for my note 3 when I order. I prefer the "darker" woods over the lighter woods.
I wish someone would make some wood cases but not of bamboo.

i think the full body is gunna be a tough one man, especial with the textured back cover of our phones. Is it even possible is what i'm thinkin
so I purchased 1 at best buy when I first got my phone it's the platinum version I'm able to charge air on the the kickstand is definitely very flimsy I do you like the actual plastic portion of it because it seems like you have more ability to hold of the EVO. my sprint store claims are gonna get a sprint specific case in about a week or so so I'll be curious with that will look like .
I have already dropped my phone with this and to get a really good job . also the camera no longer protrudes out . and is well more protected . I was expecting to return this and probly get a different case a better 1 . but I really think I like this .

I've never liked Seidio's cases. Their stuff broke on my Pre, and marred up my Brother's Pre. I like TPU cases now, but no kickstand in those. If you're going to pay Seidio prices, just buy a cheap TPU case for now and then wait for the HTC case.

Premium Executive Horizontal Leather Holster

So I finally got the holster in today and here's a short video I made for it.
Just showing the holster with the phone in it and the d3o case.
Hope it helps you guys decided if you want to order one too.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0050LW42Q/ref=oh_o03_s00_i00_details
I ordered mine from BluMall.
Yes that is the exact case I have it has been great so far, also if you turn the phone facing the other way the audio jack is mostly uncovered. I think you would still need to cut it out just a little but not near as much.

I've actually found that with this holster if I push the phone up a little bit from the bottom I can use the headphone jack.
The phone would be in the holster WITH the cover closed and basically just not touching the bottom of the holster.
But I don't know if the only reason that works is because I have a bulky (d3o) case.
Other cases or just the bare phone might cause the phone to slide down and sit on the bottom anyway.
Also was just on T-mobiles site and I noticed a D3o pouch as well

Just checked it out after you mentioned it, looks like that holster has d3o technology built in.
However I don't think it would hold the phone with a case on it.
Looks pretty slim.
And definitely does not cost 4.57 with free shipping lol.

Zenus Capsule case

Just received mine after ordering on ebay. I paid for the faster shipping and received it in only 4 days.
I've attached some pictures. Since I don't have the phone yet (obviously) i've been putting the case in my pocket and have been simulating using it (sad i know)
I love the size, and this case is awesome. I ended up picking this one because of the look and the kick stand. Definitely recommend so far.

I also have this case i used it on my n7000 and it fits perfect my only complaint would be its a little slick so hold on tight

Bad news friend we don't get a free case. That was only for certain areas don't see a free case with at&t or rogers. Unless you mean the one best buy is giving out?

Just wanted you to know is not really a case. It is another back which replaces the stock back and a flap that covers the screen. The edges of the GNote are still completely exposed.
Just wanted you to know what the flip case is.
Apparently the flip case will only last about a month due to some defects. People are complaining that it is falling apart. Good for free but don't spend you hard earned cash on it.

If it doesn't, you can just add some padded tape to the inside. that way, if the phone is thinner, it will fit snugly.
Let me know if this one is good

Anybody try the ZENUS Galaxy Note Capsule Stand Slide Series with an AT&T Note yet? I wanna make sure it works perfectly before I pull the trigger. thanks
Has anyone found a case that's durable like the one Seidio sells? Seidio won't have one out until later and I need something durable and something with a good grip, with the phone being so big and I have small hands, I'm afraid it'll slip. I bought the Zenus leather case for the time being.
UPDATE: I asked one of the eBay seller about the Zenus capsule and said it's more on the slippery side but is made with hard material.

Update for everyone. I have been using this case since the 17th and I love it. It fits perfectly with the AT&T version, even before I put the screen protector on it.
I have a black one and it fits really snug.

I found the same on Ebay and liked it, but they have the cut out on the top left corner for the Korean (?) version with the antenna. So being that the version I'll be getting here in the States doesn't have that, I'll pass on it. No need to have that spot unprotected for no reason.

Yes, I did!
I've always had good luck with Diztronic TPU cases, so for a few dollars more I'm sticking with them. I already have my Diztronic from Amazon waiting for the phone.
I bought a TPU case with stand off ebay for £5. They are usually about £2, but there is only one guy in the UK selling them right now so he can charge whatever price he likes!
Ive used these on my phones for years, theyre very handy indeed.
The stand part is likely to break at some point but I just buy a new one.
I ordered and have already received this case since my Spigen Neo Hybrid won't be here for a day or two after I receive the phone.
I can post some pictures if anyone want's me to.
Is this the same case? I ordered it last night.
EDIT: It looks like the one on eBay doesn't have cut outs for the buttons and corner.

A cheap case like this is great as a holder, if you need to hold the phone temporarily to something, for example: a treadmill

i see. oh well i dont use very often so we will see what it is like!
i think the back cover is not effective for protection. its because when your phone drops, you dont know which part will hit the ground first. thus, you still need a case. lol
Either way protection or not from the images it does look ascetically better then what samsung offers.

It went up a dollar. I'm going to snag it before it goes higher.
guys i bought a case like this for my sisters s4 , and i can confirm NFC doesnt work , also it ads bulk and weight to the phone , to the point where i personally didnt like it , it has a plastic case under the aluminum one.
Seemst to me that would get scratched up and look bad fairly quickly. Unless you put a case on it, but it would be pointless to buy if you're going to cover it with a case. I'd also be concerned about what it did to reception.
