Was looking for a new case for my XTZ.
It's hard to find one that's either not ugly or super thick.
This one for the XTZ2 would be perfect, and not too expensive as well.

Using a XTZ2 case for a XTZ may or may not work, it would be a gamble because the XTZ2 is slightly thinner than the XTZ. If you can purchase from Amazon.com, a Poetic Slimline Case for the XTZ would be a good choice.
I considered the poetic slimline case but it's similar to the one I have (Labato), which is a bit flimsy. Also the cover doesn't really stay in position so the screen on/off doesn't work.
The Incipio Lexington hard case seems sturdy but would make the tablet feel a bit too thick.
Hoping that someone with an XTZ has tried any snap on case for the XTZ2 and would know how it would fit.

I believe you will find a noticeable difference of quality when comparing Poetic's products to Labato's.

Ok,checked out the master list of all accessories thread. The problem I have with the poetic case is the issue with it not being properly designed to accomodate the charging flap.
So hard to find a decent case. Most cases make the tablet quite thick which defeats the purpose of having a thin tablet.
The Roxfit case needs tape and from where I am it costs about 60 usd which is around the same price as the Sony one for the Z2.

latest version of Poetic case has hole for charging cable/flap.
Unfortunately the Z tablet doesn't fit into the Style Cover Stand SCR12 properly. I'm thinking about customizing the cover to make it fit, I just need some drilling tools.

Hi hemicz,
Thanks for that. Also everyone else for replying.
I did a bit of a test by putting in a few pieces of paper into my existing case to see if a slightly thicker tablet would fit in it.
It didn't fit. So, together with confirmation from you I think I'll just get the Roxfit book case because of it's thinness.
Will probably end up using the Tablet until the Z3 comes out.
Cheers.

I have been searching online retailers and local shops for a leather case for my Touch HD but to no avail, until I have found this in one of the mall in the Philippines while on holiday. I believe this is one of the best genuine leather case available for the HD regardless of the price. The best part of it is the price: Only USD15.00
The leather is not stiff but smooth and soft. The stitching is very well done. All phone controls and buttons are all accessible.
Check out the pix to have an idea how amazing this leather case is.
The pictures does not include the belt clip which also serves as headset/headphone cable organizer. Very, very neat!
looks good, do you know who manufactured it?

It's Capdase. They actually have cases for all other phones including, iphone, blackberries. I actually bought similar cases too for my Blackeberry bold and Nokia 5800.
I'm wondering whether this leather case could be made compatible with Krusell's Multidapt mounting system, so it could be used with their car and bike holder kits. Could you maybe give me the exact dimensions of the swivel thingy that I suppose gets screwed in the back of the case?
Here's the corresponding Krusell data:
outside-diameter (top 2mm): 12,5mm
outside-diameter (lower 2mm): ca 9,5mm
inside-diameter: 7mm
also, do you know what kind of screw is used?
here's a pic of the krusell belt kit (the swivel thingy I'm talking about is obviously the second from the left):
Whoooa! The last pic, where it shows th case being used as a stand raises it's value a lot
Where can we buy this product ??
it's very usefull

I believe it will not be compatible. I am at work now, I will post additional pictures with belt clip on and the screw itself. I have had Krussel before but it is not as well designed as the belt clip that comes with this Capdase case.

I bought this in a mall in the Manila, Phils. I have search the web but it is not available. Maybe you could try search "Capdase" in Ebay. Even in Manila, it is not readily available in most shops, you really have to ask for it.

I will try to post additional pictures when I get off from work. But I can assure that it still fits my front pocket comfortable without looking happy to see everybody ....I never use the belt clip and screw so that's helped a lot in terms of pocketability.

Hiya guys. Just received my phone today.
I have ordered one of these Beyza SlimLine Leather Pouch Case.
Has anyone had one of these before, and what was their view of it?
Looking for a slim (protective) case, whether it be silicone or leather, pouch or flip-case, so that I can carry the phone in my jeans pocket.

I'd support that. Got the Bugatti SlimCase two weeks ago, and I'm quite satisfied with it.
PROs:
- Sturdy, quality leather case, offers good protection for the HD.
- Fixed belt loop. (yes there is a belt loop on the back - hard to see on some pictures). No clip that can accidentally slip off your belt.
- Slim fit: The HD's a slim device, and this case doesn't add bulk to it. Sits tightly against the belt, so no bulge at your waist. Comfortable to wear even under a business suit.
- velcro fastening: No chance of the HD accidentally slipping out of the case.
- Good fit around device: The HD fits in just right, and it's not too tight (so no unnecessary pressure on the screen).
- EasyOut strip, really easy to operate: Undo the velcro and pull the strip in one movement - hey presto, the HD is lifted about 1/3 out of the case. Couldn't be easier.
CON:
- Putting the HD back into the case is a bit more fiddly: The EasyOut strip gets in the way, or gets twisted. Not easy to do with one hand.
Overall, a really good belt-able case, and a real bargain too.
(I got mine from Amazon for ~ 10 € incl. P&P!!!!)
N.
You got to watch out for some of those cases on Ebay. I bought one for my X1i when I had it and because it was kinda tight ( needed breaking in ) it wore the paint down on an edge near the control panel. It was felt lined but the outer shell felt more like synthetic leather.
Krussel case here because of the quality and the Multidapt system, my last five cases have been Krussel so I have all the belt clips, windshield brackets etc. already.
Looks pretty nice

i would definitely buy it but there isn't any cut for the magnetic charger, don't feel like opening the flappy microSD and charger every time for charging.
Slip your Sony Xperia Z2 into this custom fit Matte Back Black TPU Case by Diztronic and experience the peace of mind of knowing your investment is well protected. Flexible, yet stronger and more durable than silicone, TPU offers excellent shock absorption and abrasion resistance while maintaining a thin form factor.
Just bought one
I just ordered a matte black Diztronic case from their website listed by the OP. I haven't even received my new-to-me-but-used Xperia yet, but I'm thinking ahead! I have the same type of Diztronic case on my Nexus 4 and it's been absolutely great for over 1.5 years use, and a handful of good drops. I do wish the cutout was there for the magnetic charger, but I still wanted to see what it was like, maybe even cut that section out by hand if the rest of the case makes it good enough to keep.
Love it, but...

FWIW, after a few months, I love this Diztronic case...except I do dislike taking the phone out of the case to charge in my dock. It's not annoying enough for me to use something else, however, as this case is really perfect fitting, durable, not slippery, and looks nice if you like the matte finish. The other slim case I bought has a cutout for the charging dock, but still doesn't actually fit (with either spacer option). I'd have to 3D print a custom cradle spacer with additional clearance on one side, and that's not worth it. So, alas, I will probably continue to just take it out of the case every night. I will say that since battery life is so good on this phone, I pretty much never have to charge during the day, so never have to open the micro-usb cover, or take the case off to use the magnetic charger adapter (which I usually only use for traveling).
Simple and good~
What is the lightest weight case available?
No one here has a case that they have found that doesn't add a little weight. Looking for light case
Try the Moko lightweight smart case or a Poetic Slimline Series. I make no specific claims of them being the "lightest".
Taking a look at Amazon and watching the shipping weight numbers gives one a rough idea of the weight of the cases.

The Poetic Slimline is really thin and light, but I've gone through two of them with different magnet problems. The first one, the magnet wasn't strong enough to keep the "lid" closed and the second one the magnets the lid attached to just up and fell out. So I can't say I would recommend the Poetic at this point.

Understandable. At the same time what I've found is that cases with strong magnets for closure can cause problems when the flap is flipped all the way around in terms of interference with S-Pen function in some areas of the screen.
Double edged sword I guess but thinking back to when I had a Mako version of the case yes I agree the magnets are too weak there too.
I'm currently using the Samsung cover because I wanted the keyboard and it it's working great, to me out doesn't add that much weight nor is it to bulky as well, the zagg one was a tad lighter but I think the Samsung one felt more comfortable

Thought I'd kick off a chat about the best cases available for the Z3. Either specific ones or more universal ones that are a good fit.
I am thinking about ordering another Fitbag sleeve from Germany which I've had for my last two phones and are excellent. I'm not a fan of clipped on cases as I like the look of the phone itself.
I was tempted by the WCR14 cover which enables wireless charging but they only seem to do it in black or white and since I am getting the copper Z3, I want one that matches really. Also It's about £80
What about screen protector back/front side...any ideas?
Im reciving mine copper also in five days and dunno should i take protectors,case or nothing.
Just ordered a Z3 and it will be my first Xperia. Does it comes /or is it avaliable to buy - a official smartcase cover?
Anyone using Z2 knows?
the phone does not come with any cover ,Also the official cases have not been released yet!
just to share:
i initially bought the casemate barely there (black) case for my Z3, however, after that decided to look out for another case as i felt while it was slim and light, it covered up the beautiful back of the phone, and was quite slippery to hold
ended up, got this to try instead, and so far much happier with it. its a slim, silicon transparent case for the Z3, and showcases most of the back, protect around all sides, and also has better grip!

I received the Roxfit Made for Xperia Slimline Standing Book Case for Xperia Z3 - Carbon White today from amazon. As always excellent case does add a bit of bulk but protects very well
Why do every case manufacturer want to expose the Xperia doors? It'd be nice to find something less... swiss cheese
because nobody wants to take of the case to reach the USB port. Covering the SIM/SD Card area might be acceptable though.
They have covered the sim/sd card door this time on the roxfit slimline book case

Yeah, same here. I went for the red and black napa leather one. I have a black napa leather one for my Nexus 5. Cleans the screen just by sliding it in and out thanks to the microfibre interior, the leather is soft so it slides into a pocket easily but quality so it doesn't get damaged.
It's also really well made with solid stitching and a tight but not overly tight fit to the device. Can't rate them highly enough

This is a fantastic case. It's magnetic so it wakes it and puts it to sleep. It's slim, it fits perfectly, and the front can be folded to stand it up. They have a ton of colors and it looks really nice. It's only $15 shipped!

I'm not worried about a screen protector but only because of the way I use mine. If I had children playing with it or used it in harsh conditions, I would.

This Christmas I gave Memo 7 tablets and BobjGear covers to all my grandchildren. I dont know what you mean by "good", but for me, the kids drop them a lot and I have not had to replace one yet. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Did anyone spot a nice genuine leather sleeve or folio for either ME176C or ME572C (I have both ) . I have one PU leather folios for the ME176C but not only was it cheap, it looks even cheaper, has a lousy feel, adds lots of bulk and weight and the built-in stand is pretty much useless.
I'm thinking of getting an iPad mini sleeve as it has exactly the height (but more depths and less width) and there're plenty to choose from...
I got the official ASUS case for my ME572CL. Not the folio smart case, which is way too expensive, but the soft silicon rubber one. Cheaper, looks nice, thin and offers reasonable protection, but I really don't recommend it - they have tried to keep the edges thin so that they don't cover any of the glass screen, so the fit is much too loose. Also it has no magnets and no strap or fastner, so the screen cover just flaps open. Because of these flaws the case is not really fit for purpose and I find myself taking it off whenever I actually use the tablet would have been better off just buying a cheap nexus 7 sleeve.
Well, meanwhile I was doing a little research and figured out that iPad Mini Sleeves (which can be found in abundance) would be a perfect fit due to the exact same length. However thanks to a strike here it's been in somewhere in the mail for just shy of 2 weeks now...

You're totally right. Thanks for the tip.
Can anyone recommend a good "bumper" case? You know, a rubbery one that just slips on (covers the back and edges only, no front cover) and protects it a bit from falls?
What's a good case for the 176ce?
