My E4 case for the GS2 has three slits for credit cards, there is also a small inner pocket where you could put a few bills. The E4 for the Note has five slits for credit cards and should have the same inner pocket (behind credit card slits)

I must point out the Easecase will answer any questions regarding further info/options/customizing - this really impressed me. They provided me with photos of colour options and engravement placement.

Before I got my Easecase, I used a Melkco flipcase which I loved. Unfortunately I dropped my phone this resulted in having two ugly dents in it. After that ....I was determined to get a case with full protection. I didn't really purchase it for the wallet aspect, as I use my purse and handbag for that.

All future phones will be lovingly encased in Easecase LoL

Thanks for all the info. If I order one, should I order through eBay?

Yes, they only trade through Ebay as far as I'm aware. If you are going to customise it, put your instructions in the message box on the order page.

So....are you getting one?

I am thinking about it very hard!

I am in the US so it would take me a couple weeks I'm sure to receive. Also, can it be held in a guys front pocket? I actually have two phones to carry around. I obviously could not put the Note in my back pocket for fear of squishing it. Seems my pockets will be very full!

I bought a case from Amazon then received an unexpected official Samsung Flip Case through the post from my Network 3 here in the UK for free. I am now using that one as it is great.

I cant recommend it enough, on all previous phones i would never dream of getting a flip case because they were just not for me i have always gone for Case-Mate Tough for full protection.

Anyway check where you are with your Network to see if you are eligible for a free flip case, they are great quality. I have a white Note and they sent me an orange case, didn't like the colour at first but now its nice.

that case has bad rep here among the users, quality is bad, and starts peeling between 2 weeks to a month after usage

the easecase ones are the most premium you can find, i guess. i would love one, or 2 of those

i'm using the zenus case now, but it has a magnet at the back, so im thinking of changing it. i can verify that it affects the phone, not on the s-pen side when using it, but if you run the test on the compass, it screws up the proper reading

Dang that stinks!

I suppose it's personal preference, I've not had any problems with it yet. Can't complain being free thou!

I highly recommend the Valentinus SGP case (vintage brown). I just bought one this weekend, and it's has a really premium feel and looks to it. I'll try to take a picture of it sometime this week.

mr. oneton where did you purchase your case and how much?

i'm from Philippines, I bought it from a local store called Applewerkz. If you're from a different country, I think you can buy from sgp's website, or from ebay? hope this helps.

I'm also on the hunt for a decent leather case. Easecase looks good, but no stand. I've messaged them to ask if one can be added - fingers crossed.

Another candidate is noreve.com - have a look at their leather case.

Another brand is unikko on ebay. And

if you fancy some bling look for hyundaihmall on amazon/ebay, although they don't always show up in search results

Would have added direct links but not permitted yet

If easecase can add a stand/leg, that will be my choice

I'd like like very much leather wallet style cases for smartphones; but, however, in my opinion and experience, they aren't very functional: when I must respond to incoming calls I must very rapidly rotate sideways (360 degree) the flip while holding the phone. In a different way I have found that I can more easily and very quickly open the flip upwards while holding the phone sideways. For this reason I've chosen for my galaxy note a case from pielframa.com with a simple (not magnetic) snap closure on the bottom, even if from an aesthetic point of view I prefer a wallet style case. For money and credit cards I've chosen against my will to use a separate wallet, because I fear the presence of the magnetic field of the loudspeaker near the magnetic strips of the cards.

Swift response from easecase - no they can't add a leg/stand. However, having looked for chuffin' ages, they're among the best I've found so I've ordered an E4 regardless (tip: mentioned somewhere else on this forum, beware of ordering their E6 version - has a wallet compartment at the back that blocks the camera)
I also think it might be possible to fold the front flap back far enough to act as a stand "support"- will wait and see

Cost - £46.99 from ebay. Delivery - at least 6 weeks (not surprising as it's tailor made)

Their ebay site states this model uses one magnet for closure. I (and many others) have had issues with magnetic covers/cases(s-pen issues , amongst others). The Samsung Note manual also states one should not use them.

I am desperately looking for a replacement for mine!

I was looking for a leather flip case and Came across this discussion. Ive been waiting for a genuine leather wallet case and finally order one...easecase just looks incredible! I talk to them because i was concerned that there was no front speaker hole, but they told me they can provide one I will get it in about 6 weeks also so ill keep you posted and provided pictures when I get it. BTW I order the E4 for the camera hole.

jug6ernaut · May 5, 2012

This one looks interesting...anyone purchased this one before?

I have the carbon one. Zenus cases are top quality. They use magnets but very weak ones so no problem with the spen. Highly recommended by me.
