Very Cool Hard Case

[Big_Totoro]

I ordered this on ebay after watching the video on youtube.

I have to say I'm pretty impressed with it. Very unique design. It's hard, and rubberized to so you can keep a good grip on it.

It's not cheap, I paid about 60 bucks USD for it. Check it out, you guys might like it., I know I do!

Cheers!

Thank you for that! Bit bulky, but has cool features. Please give us an update when it arrives.

Same here. Too bulky and cheaplooking for my taste.

Did look at one like that but I thought it was a bit bulky too. Like the hard front cover for bag protection though.

Using this one on mine with a screen protector and a slip case, for bag protection

It is excellent quality and offers good bump and scratch protection. It does not increase the footprint much and has a nice lip on the edge to give you a good purchase on the tab while holding it.

Cut outs for ports and buttons are spot on and have enough room around them for a the cables to attach correctly (others do not!)

For the price I am very pleased.

I have the same case in pink and love it, but I got it at daydeal dot com.

I bought the 2nd case for my Galaxy TAB and it's exactly the same case like yours except with white side.
It's cheap but it's good.

The case posted by Big_Totoro is good but, kinda worried the front lid with standing stoppers
which might eventually create marking or scratches on Galaxy TAB screen.

I'm using Incipio Silicrylic with kickstand. It is very nice and rugged. The kickstand kind of sucks but I contacted Incipio and they are going to work something out. Kickstand aside, the case is nice and heavy duty without adding much bulk.

I ordered this case in black just over a week ago and it arrived today. Brilliant fit, barely adds any weight while the device feels fully supported. The different prop positions are also great. My only concern was that it wouldnt fold back on itself to allow good usage one handed, but it a actually folds back on itself really well.

Got mine

It isn't really very bulky. compared to a 3mm rubber skin yeah it is, but that isn't going to give you any protection anyhow

The rubberized outside is very grippy. Easy to hold in one hand without the fear of slippage.

The "stand" parts don't contact the screen at all when closed. It might if you have pressure applied to it, but again, it is soft rubberized finish on those stant peices as well on the inside.

The fit is brilliant. Leaving all the external buttons accessible. The front cover folds back easily, and don't fold over on itself at all.

It feels very sturdy and rugged. Not cheap feeling at all.

Just goin to touch on the "bulkiness" topic again briefly. Most leather or PU leather cases I have looked at at alot bulker than this case. While that MAY off a little more padding, I have noticed that most of those leather cases, the clasp interfers with the view of the screen.

Just my 2 cents

Cheers guys!

Thank you. I haven't found a retailer in Europe though. I hope this will change.

The first peice of accessories for my Tab looks wonderfull I like it , price is fair

Got the same hard case in black, OP said rubberized finish, though mine is more like a textured finish, not sure if there are 2 types?

 

[sjjones]

looks a little plasticy?

 

[sclui56]

looks a little plasticy?

Yes, certainly not what I would call rubbery or soft-touch. I haven't heard back from the seller yet.

 

[Big_Totoro]

Mine is Black as well. I guess we have a difference of opinion on what rubbery feel is

Its hard plastic with a rubberized coating. I dont know how else to explain it. Its not silicon rubbery or so rubbery that it would rub away.

Its not squishy, but its definatly not slippery. So there is a ruberized coating on it.

[kakyoin]

just got my GT for a week, i saw this case on "yeebay"

will order one during or after the xmas/NY holiday, so i'll receive it as soon as the post office people start working.

Just an update, it turns out that there are 2 versions - the GLARE is not rubberized. I bought this for ~$40 from the seller. According to the seller, this cost less than the rubberized and it made sense cause he is selling the "other" version for ~$60. But when I went back & look at the item # I bought from (he still has units selling under the same item #), the price has gone up to ~$60.

I think the case is fine as is and will not spend return shipping & extra $60 to get the rubberized finish, just put that towards a leather case instaed.

Hi Big_Totoro,
How did you find it at Ebay? I've no idea how it is called or who build it (Manufactor). I was not able to find it anywhere in the web. Can you give me a hint?

Merry Christmas to all people out there!

 

[evlado]

I bought one of these too and absolutely love it. The fit is perfect, the ergonomics are fantastic (someone has spent a lot of time thinking about how this will be used so it supports all positions), it provides great protection, and the rubberised surface feels great.

I reckon this is the best case I have bought for any device- most useful, and if anything the device feels smaller to me in the case- an illusion obviously, but a testament to the quality of it.

I bought a few cases for my tab, but this is the only one that I will be using
