Default Spigen SGP Leinwand leather case

http://www.amazon.com/SPIGEN-SGP-Lei...74169&sr=1-138

Anyone get one of these? Anyone have pics? Looks very tempting. Given it's supposed to be REAL leather, not no knock-off crap.

Yes this was very tempting indeed...but for what I wanted and needed, I had to get a case that had the features of a wallet, a stand, and a good overall protection. None of the Spigen SGP leather cases fulfilled my needs, so I opted out for this case http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ls_o00_s00_i00 Best case i've ever gotten. I tend to forget my wallet a lot and ever since i switched to the Note (coming from a white Gnexus), i couldn't use Google Wallet anymore, which now i really miss btw. But this case is really awesome and recommend it to anyone with a GNote. And you can't go wrong with the price. I picked up this case and a 32GB Class 10 Microsd card both for only $44.99.

wow this case looks so good for its price. For a smaller, slimmer case without the wallet I think the yoobao slim would be a good choice. http://kevikev.com/Yoobao-Slim-Leath...LCSamNoteS.htm

I got this case for my son in law. It's made to imitate the iPad cases. The front folds up onto its self very easily (too much for my liking) because of being real (somewhat soft) leather. The closing tab is annoying but without it the case rolls up onto itself (soft leather). I think a magnetic clasp would be more convenient (seen some on ebay). Maybe the fake leather SPIGEN case with one large panel and one small panel would be more practical.

I'm thinking of getting this case. Wallet plus stand feature at this price is unheard of....

Also got myself a 32gb class10 microsd card for only $30. Gotta love Amazon prime and the free 2 day shipping.

I bought this case. I really like it. Keeps me from scratching the screen (hate screen protectors) when in my pocket. The biggest reason I like it is because it folds up like a kick stand. Browsing the web on the note is really handy this way. Watching movies is more enjoyable too.

My only gripe with the case is the fact that the way it closes. I would think a magnet would be much more handy and quicker. Pulling the phone out of my pocket and then working the strap off to answer a call can be an nuisance.
