Default [Q] Imak leather cases (flip bottom)

I believe there were no feedback on those yet (priced at 19.99$ at obostore):

NB I am new so not allowed externals links so here are just end-portions of urls at obostore

Imak Count Leather Case Skin for Samsung Galaxy Note
imak-count-leather-case-skin-for-samsung-galaxy-note-p-4034-c-188.html

Imak Jazz Super-slim Genuine Leather Case Skin for Samsung Galaxy Note
imak-jazz-superslim-genuine-leather-case-skin-for-samsung-galaxy-note-p-4043.html

anyone have those to share impressions? they look decent, corners seems to be protected... but withpout hands-on-experience hard to say how well they fit, feel (bulky or not), how well top latch works, etc.

Thank you in advance

Thanks for spotting these. I ordered the Imak Count on 30 December and it arrived yesterday. Free shipping so only paid about £11 which is an absolute bargain. It's a nice simple design and feels really good to hold. No metal protrusions or crass branding, just a discrete Imak stamp on the rear. The fit is excellent and it's quite easy to insert and remove the GNote. The corners are reasonably well protected although the open sections may be slightly vulnerable. The latch works well, releases easily and keeps the inside face of the cover approx 1 - 2mm above the screen.

My Noreve case is going back as it has an adverse effect on the signal strength (actually quite a dramatic effect), whereas the Imak case seems to have minimal impact.

I agree. If it cannot be fixed, it has to go back.
