Hi! The Tab S2 is very thin and light, so it is a pity to loose those features with a big and heavy case.. I tried to find something like the Apple cover, but no success till now! any advise?!
Tab S2 cover like the Apple one

There are many available on the market, but it also includes a back protection, you can also consider the official Samsung book cover.
Screen protector. That's all my S2 is going to wear!
I'm enjoying how light this tablet is and it's replaced my Microsoft surface 3 for daily use

The official Samsung book cover, whilst covering back, is still super thin. Is actually still thinner than an iPad air with its cover as above.
The cover sold as Samsung cover is just perfect, if you are looking to keep it thin.
AliExpress has several covers that are packaged just like Samsung Book covers in more colors. I ordered 2 and they seem like the Samsung originals. The snaps fit well. They are 14.30, with free China Post shipping.

This is the case I have for mine. Quite thin and light. Has a nice smooth, soft touch feel too

I think the perfect cover was the Samsung Simple Cover which was released for the older Tab S - I can't post links yet so you'll have to Google it 
It just clipped onto the notches at the back and protected the screen without adding bulk (I'm not worried about the back. It's the screen I want to protect when the tablet is in my bag etc). I'm hoping to get something like that for my Tab S2 when/if it becomes available

Samsung Tab S2 is amazing tablets with great features. Yes, Its very thin and light weight. The camera and sound are really amazing.
I have been looking for this type of cover (front only like the ipad or tab S) for a while too, no luck. Please post a link if you know of something similar.
The ones I got for my original Tab S were crap. The case itself felt like thin cheap cardboard and the one button kept coming undone. The only redeeming quality was the magnet was stronger. The magnet in the samsung one was beyond weak and never held up to any sort of gaming or movement and kept flattening out.
I ended up picking up the book case with the plastic snap in back. Adds a touch of thickness, but the magnet is stronger, the case feels more premium than the china two button ones, and it does provide more protection. Here it is.
But honestly, the book type covers are much more stable and solid when in the different stand modes than the ones where lid folds over itself into a triangle. But I guess it's more about what's important to you.

How is it thinner with a shell than the simple covers that utilize the snap in buttons? Seems like kind of a wash.

Hi Folks, before, i allways bought third-party covers for my tabs.......at the Tab S2 (SM-T815 LTE), i tried different ones, but they are all much too heavy, so i don`t want to make a ultra light weight Tabelet to a heavy duty one.........And, I´m also using a bluetooth keyboard most of time, if i had to wrote longer EMails and other things......so, this time i got the original samsung one :

And, it`s really perfect!!! With the keyboard within, it`s a bit heavy, ok, but it`s ok for a complete device, with external keys. But! You can put the magnetic holded keyboard out to use it complete seperately (By the way with two different devices). And the cover only is very tight and light weight. So, the tab is covered, you have three possibilities to make it as a stand by the magnetic holders, and, the tab`s display goes out if you close the cover.
The keys are amazing! You have specialized Android keys, a mouse pad, and it works just perfect !!!!! And you can handle the keyboard complete seperatly, that`s what i really like............
BTW : I also bought the docking station , with 2 USB Ports, charging input, HDMI out and LAN connector.....this is awesome !!!! And, this is not connected like the other docking stations by putting the device directly on a micro usb pin! It have a short cable, so you can choose the direction for the tab by yourself..........and it works perfect also. LAN connection in office or at home is great, very fast. And you can keep all beeing connected, just put the tab in the stand, connect the cable and all is running. At the beginning, i have some Problems with apps like Chrome, they only accept a 3/4G or Wifi connection, but there is a app in playstore calles "true ethernet" that is simulating a 4G Connection for LAN, this app runs in the background, so you just have to install it...thats all, and you can use all apps with a ethernet connection also......think you need root for this app........
The Samsung keyboard cover is a bit more expensive than the other ones, but not so much, but if you try it, you will see, it`s really better to spend this more money, so you have a device and cover, that fits 100 percent for your device.....
