Wouldn't that interfere with the signal?

All aluminum bumper and cases do. Some more than others.

Thanks for sharing Really a cool Case!! Thinking about getting it.
Anyone know what brand and website is the maker for this case?
is this a designer Case or A Chinese counterfeit?

This case is just a chinese made case. Ebay and Amazon both sell them and the ratings on Amazon are not good. I would pass only because of the price point. Looks cool though.

I don't want to this item because I am happy with my cover. But it is nice looking.

As my experience, all kinds of metal bumper or sealed aluminum case will reduce mobile signals to some extend, I will pass them except crazy on it...

A cheaper metal bumper for the Note?

I am going to buy a bumper, but all of the metal ones that I see are super expensive, like $70.
I really love the look of the chrome Sweet Armor, but it's super expensive. Does anyone know of something similar that won't break my piggy bank?

Please give us a review of it when you get it. I don't know why so many of these TPU cases have that "S" line on the back. I think it looks cleaner without it.
They are also showing up on Amazon too.

Let me know if you get them. You wouldn't believe how many things I ordered on eBay from China that never came. They were all really good about refunds though.

Thanks! But I'm actually waiting for a white or colored one. I have dark pockets ranging from either purses or jacket pockets. Would really like to be able to see my phone instantly. This is the style I want, though.
Edit: It seems this style actually has different colors. Is it possible to find just the case rather than with the chargers? I live downtown without a car so it isn't really needed.
Edit2: xD; Nevermind, colored cases are for Sprint version.
I dislike silicone because they attract so much dust and lint. But I still ordered one because I don't like my phone being "naked" and there isn't a tpu case out that I like.
I emailed diztronic and they told me that they will have one out in a few weeks. Link is below.

I spoke to the guy a week ago. He said he raised the price so no one orders it cause it doesn't actually fit. He also said when he does get some in stock that fit all he has to do is lower the price.

I've had a bunch of those rubberized plastic snap cases before for my old phone. Most of them were pretty bad quality. I'd stay away from the cheap ones on Ebay because they don't get reviewed by users and you can't tell if they are quality or not.

Genuine leather battery cover?

Has anybody here found a real genuine leather battery cover to replace the fake one on the Note 3?
So far the only real leather I have found is on the flip cases.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 4
Not that I have seen, it may be a tough one to make unless someone covers an existing battery door with leather itself.
I think a real leather battery cover would be awesome.
A nice tan or beige color would go great with white or black note. Kind of like the interior tan leather color with a white car
Sent from my C6602
IF such a thing does get made, I'd be on it
My only concern is how it will not dissipate heat well at all. Unless they make it from extremely thin leather and stretch it over the OEM battery door....

I wonder if zagg will come out with a leather skin for it. That might work. I have one on my ipad and it's really nice.
I bought the white note 3 in hopes that I might be able to possibly die the white pleather tan or brown. Any thoughts on this?
I'm not sure what material I could use that wouldn't come off on my hands.

It's not pleather, it's textured hard plastic. I'd bet you could spray paint it pretty easily.

If you really want to change the backs color try SEM automotive interior dye. Its a high quality plastic dye.
These aren't exactly real leather, but look like it. I don't think they feel like plastic either but not sure

Aluminum Case with rear cutout - Love It!!!

So I've been looking around for an aluminum protective case for my note 3 since it came home. As most of you have heard from others, the full aluminum cases despite the protection, suffer from drastic signal loss. I figured I couldn't go wrong with an aluminum bumper and bought two awesome looking bumpers off ebay. One is a gorgeous solid aluminum bumper with no hole for mic but really nicely made and a thin aluminum bumper with all openings. The biggest drawback of both of these bumpers is that there is no camera protection. As all of you have noticed the rear camera is raised a bit, which makes these bumpers a no go if your laying it down on rear. I saw a full protective case on Ebay that was composed of three pieces : aluminum frame, silicone style case and aluminum rear with a cutout. I went ahead and ordered for a measly $14 and some change, thinking it wouldn't be a big loss. My package arrived today from Hong Kong and I couldn't be happier. I absolutely love it. It is the exact look and feel I wanted. For those who want a nice solid aluminum case with no signal loss I recommend you get one. I hardly write stuff on here but I felt compelled to share my experience.
Here's the link to ebay ad.

I'm pretty sure its for NFC as well. Plus it helps with reception as opposed to solid rear cases with affect reception. Personally I'd like to see someone step it up and make some premium CNC cut luxury cases lime they make for iphones with nicely made cut outs in rear. I reached out to three of those companies today , like MeeJoJo and 2 of them said only iphones and s4 's.
These are just some cnc cases for iphone 5s that I'd like to see for our phones.
I think that case is ugly and weird looking. I think it makes the phone look like a plain block of metal. Maybe it would look better if it was black anodized aluminum.
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
Had something similar for my previous Note 2. These metal cases tend to cause the phone signal to degrade. Hope you guys won't experience that problem.

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.

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.
