Does Galaxy Tab Cases fit?

Do cases for the Tab fit on the Note?

Can't really find any cases I want, so I was thinking I could get the Tab case and use that.

The Note is larger - it won't fit at all unless the original case was VERY loose/flexible.

No they don't.
They are smaller.
I'm also waiting for the release of the note case.
I'm using a generic sleeve while I wait.

I am holding out for the Samsung book cover as well. I really like the quality of the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 and hope that the Notes is similar quality. Just wish they would get it out!

Not only does it not fit, do not buy anything from iLuv listed as fitting the Note 10.1....their site doesn't list any product for the Note 10.1, but plenty of sellers out there lying. I just return a folio/keyboard of theirs. barely could get it in and it offered no protection, since it was too wide

I am wondering if GSMArena's measurements might be off? I received a case for a Galaxy Tab 10.1 yesterday, and my Note was actually slightly UNDERsized for it. The shorter axis (from the power button edge to the charger edge) was perfect, but the Note is about 1/8 inch shorter than the case lengthwise. The other issue, though, is that the Note's buttons/ports are not in exactly the same location as the former GTabs. And there was no stylus slot.

But, I really like the case (see the link) because it has a hard-shell back, is comfortable to hold, has a strap to hold it closed or to slip my hand through, let's me rotate my Note to stand horizontally or vertically, and lets me charge it while it is in the case. And I got it for only $10, including shipping, which is a price I don't figure to beat for a comparable case.

So, I used a pair of tin snips, a dremel, and a little bit of double-sided adhesive tape to secure my note to the modified case. Took about 15 minutes, and now I'm a happy camper...
