Hi everyone, I hope you all are enjoying your galaxy tab pro's. If you're like me, you are looking for a good case. I came from the Nexus 7 2013 and I bought this case http://www.seidioonline.com/asus-google-nexus-7-2013-dilex-case-cover-black-p/bd2-csk3asn72-bk.htm and it was one of the best cases i've ever owned. I decided to ask seidio on twitter if they planned on making any cases for the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 and this was their response
"Currently we don't have any plans to make cases for the Tab Pro 8.4, but I will forward your request to my product team."
Now, I think if we get enough people to ask for them to make a case they might do it. If you can, would you please send them a tweet asking if they could make a case for the Galaxy tab Pro 8.4? It would mean alot to me and it would benefit all people who want their cases for their new Galaxy Tabs.
Here is their twitter: https://twitter.com/Seidio
Thanks, and please respond here if you do tweet @ them.
$45 for a case that doesn't cover the front glass?

It does cover the front glass, with far more protection than most other flip book style cases. Cases like poetics slimline are nice, but having the flop cover slide all over when trying to read on the tablet for extended periods of time is annoying. Check out a review on YouTube to see what I mean.

I have the Seidio on my N7 and I love it... I too wish they would expand their line.

That's the Kracken, and that's the one that they say is coming soon.
Can't wait.
I was considering this case until i saw the "holster". The "holster" looks like a clasp, and it looks flimsy, its definitely not a style of "holster" I would like to use. Other than the "holster" the case seemed like it woukd have been good.

I'm not a big fan of carrying the phone on my belt. Seems to get hit more that way.
I'm looking forward to the case for the multi-layer construction, and hopefully, the kickstand.

Do they offer the same kind of warranty as otterbox? As far as taking a picture of the damaged or broken product and they send you another one.
Sent from my Galaxy Note
Yes! I'm all over this. I was hoping for a Ballistic HC, but this will absolutely do the trick!
Front Page Now...I may tell otterbox to shove it, been giving them crap for a day or two now on their FB page.
See attached,,,
i like all the AMS attachements. I never looked at all the attachments. Im quite impressed, i just don't know about the belt clip.
I might get one of these if otterbox keeps taking so long. :/

I feel the same way about the clip, I'd prefer more of an actual clip. Trident's clip looks like a clasp. Looks as if the phone would be wobbly on your waist.
EDIT: I'll just be glad when this comes out, otterbox, or seidio with kickstand and holster comes out. Hopefully one of them rrleases their case soon.

Well, I certainly hope that we do get the Kraken AMS soon. I'm liking that green color a lot.
so the Aegis or Kraken is expected to come out in May?
Hey guys!
Im looking to get the Note on a concession line from my job (That or the S3, and I have a serious love for the note) and have been looking around for some fun accessories before I take the plunge. Im curious, is there an aluminum back cover for the I717 note, or is it specific to the international variant?
Also, any case recommendations would be great. Im leaning toward the Kraken because of the durability and belt clip...Im just a little concerned about the size. Ive had trident before and cred them whenever possible. They have fantastic products. Thanks!
You could get a glass screen protector and a tpu case if thickness gets you. I have an otter box right now and its easily 2x as thick

Our Note has an NFC antenna in the convert that would be shielded by metal. ICS enabled NFC.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
I've got a Trident case for mine. They offer a lot of protection but not as bulky as otter box. Reasonable on the price as well.
so my question is will the battery cover fit? because i don't really care about the NFC function.
I am looking for a good bumper for the phone. It's an amazing phone and I will not like to cover it all the way.
Let me know if there are any suggestions for the bumpers for this beauty

Even fits with the Samsung wireless charging back.

I have this case and it really does not add a lot of bulk to the phone.
I would say around half the thickness of the Spen on its slimmer side, if that makes sense.
Protects the phone really well though, since it has 2 material composition.
I have dropped my phone from my face height several times (talking while holding multiple other stuff on both hands) but case looks fine besides a few surface scratches.
Thickness is about 7/16 (.4375) or 11mm.

I highly doubt they're fake. Smart Shop has almost one hundred thousand ratings and 94% of those ratings are positive. I've also read here on XDA about many people ordering the bumper when it's $0.01 and haven't seen anything about them being fake.

I got the bumper right now and first impressions are pretty positive but I was still looking for a slimmer bumper that will add even less weight or bulk to the phone. I will use it for a couple of days before posted a update to this thread about the bumper. In the mean time if you have any questions then feel free to ask

I hope Zenus bring out in near feature the Walnutt bumper for the Note3. The Zenus Walnutt bumper was the best back in time for the SIII.

"Fake?" Poetic is just branding a generic case from the same Chinese supplier as the Bear Motion bumper ring case.

Just looked at the bumper they have on their site and it looks very similar to the Poetic and Bear Motion, doesn't seem slimmer and its 2/3 times the price. Looks good though, but not for 24 dollars.

Doesn't look all that similar to me. My main concern is that it might have a transparent shell based on that watermark logo in the pics. That would prevent me from using it with my slightly thicker official Samsung wireless charge cover battery door. The Bear Motion / Poetic case fits fine but I hate the squishy power button. They don't show any pics without a phone so I can't tell if there is a shell or not. With a shell it wouldn't technically be a bumper, but Love Mei is guilty of that error too.
My friend want to buy one. And he wanted to see how it fit, Since the phone is in tablet territory in size.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!

I've had Otterbox on another device, it wasn't nearly as good as the price would make you think. The rubber stretches after a time and doesn't fit properly, the screen protector is awful and on mine the belt clip broke after about 7 months.
If he really wants to spend the money there are better cases out there. Like the Seidio http://www.seidioonline.com/seidio-Samsung-Galaxy-Mega-6-3-s/8996.htm

Defender
I've had the O-Box Defender on my Mega since day 1. Love it. I attached a disc to the back so I can even wear it on my belt. :silly:
I got an otterbox for a galaxy mega, it feels great but It may have made the phone too big
I would try out the Trident Aegis case and fit the screen with a 9H tempered glass and your phone would be invulnerable to drops. I added this combination to my Mega 6.3 when I first got it and had a few drops here and there and nothing broke or chipped. The rubber material of the case is thicker and stronger then Otterbox's Defender in my opinion.

Hello,
I'm having trouble finding a flip case that isn't so stiff it won't fold properly. I'm looking for something with a loose hinge and preferably that doesn't stick out past the edge of the phone.
I liked my nexus 10 flip case so much I decided to get one for my Note 3... Turns out the official +"non" S-View one is stiff as can be. You can hold the phone out flat with the cover open and it's almost parallel with the phone.
It looks like there was an older version of the official S-View case that might have been this way. However, it doesn't look like this is available anymore.
This is the sort of case I'm looking for.
Any help would be great. Thanks.

How is that similar to the Nexus 10 cover?
like this
I was actually going to recommend the case that stoney73 recommended too as well. Maybe because I read the word hinged.
