I'm interested in the 2 bumper ring cases on the right, who makes them?
I have a bear motion one now, still to slipery for me, I'm looking for something with some more grip, like what they use on the otterbox cases. I have the wireless charging back on mine, thats why I need to stick with the bumper.

One is a bear motion and the other one is a poetic brand. Both are exactly the same. Only reason I got two is because I had to widen the headphone jack to make it work.

Should have gotten it in white/black though instead of straight black. The black shows a lot of fingerprints.

Where did you order your Caseology cases from? I've been looking at the brown one from Amazon but it looks different from yours (the bumber shows black all the way around on the back): Amazon.com: Caseology Samsung Galaxy Note 3 [Vintage Hybrid Series] - Premium Distressed Leather Shock Absorbent TPU Bumper Case (Brown) [Made in Korea] (for Sprint, T-mobile, Unlocked): Cell Phones & Accessories

Re: Note 3 Case Thread.

I'm thinking about the spigen, this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Pro...ag=hawk-future-21&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU3376480

My only apprehension is when I want to put my phone in it's dock on my bedside.

Re: Note 3 Case Thread.

Just got the samsung QI backplate. I bought a Mercury Jelly case and it wont fit do to the extra mm of thickness. Has anyone found a jelly or thin case that fits with this backplate? Thanks!

Re: Note 3 Case Thread.

I just received the ebay knock off S-view cover and I'm very happy!! Winning the cover for $3.25 shipped I thought what the heck so I decide to get the dark grey. The cover came in a look a like package that you get with the Samsung S-view so that nice. The cut outs and look of this cover is very nice and the feel of it is great. It has real stitching around the cover and fits perfectly however, the case doesn't have any Samsung logo on the back it like the real one. Also the S-view window works great except when the cover is folded back it activate the S-view window (see picture below). Here are some pictures to see this great alternative to the more expensive Samsung's S-view.

Re: Note 3 Case Thread.

Just received my Spigen New Hybrid in Revington Yellow.

I thought the Note 3 looked good before but now it's just amazing. It feels a lot easier to hold with this case too. Best ?19.99 I have spend in a long while.

Congrats on the winning bid. I have five knockoffs (2 slate gray; 2 mustard; 1 black). Although the IC chip in one died recently. I've never had the issue with the cover folded back, and it's folded back now as I peruse Note 3 threads.

Re: Note 3 Case Thread.

I like the Bounce. It's got a sculptured feel. Very crisp angles. I don't have the lip/back button problem myself, but I can see how someone might. I really like the feel of the case. Feels purposeful, clean, and grippy.

Re: Note 3 Case Thread.

These are my cheap note 3 case collections.
Price ranges from 1usd to 18usd.
I change my case everyday so I can't afford to buy expensive ones.

Re: Note 3 Case Thread.

I saw a blue and white Tetded case earlier in this thread and thought it looked really cool so I found a black and toffee Tetded case on eBay for $45 including shipping. The case came today and I love it. The case is made of genuine cowhide and snaps securely onto the phone adding minimal bulk. The phone feels really good in the hand while enclosed in this case.

Re: Note 3 Case Thread.

Just wanted to let everyone know about my recent experience with UAG. I bought the UAG Navigator (white) case for my GN3 from Amazon and it's really nice. Great look, feel and quality, IMO. It comes with your typical flimsy screen protector, but I didn't buy it for that so I don't care. I've never been a screen protector guy. The gorgeous screen on this device is one of the major reasons I bought it; I don't want to cover it up. Plus I am very careful with my smartphones and take good care not to get them scratched.

Anyway, like many have noted, the case is missing a cutout at the bottom right corner. I believe it's for the noise cancelling microphone, others say it's for humidity/temp sensing. Either way it's covering up a tiny hole that's meant to do something.

So I emailed UAG support and I have to tell you, the response I received was impressive. Not only did they get back to me quickly, they said because I bought it off of Amazon they are not going to ask me to return the original case I bought. They also gave me a code to purchase a new case that has the missing cutout from their UAG site at no cost. Pretty sweet if you ask me! So I will end up having two cases, albeit one is slightly imperfect, for the price of one.

So in summary, if you want this case I recommend getting it from UAG directly so that you get the newer case with the missing cutout. Also, UAG provides some pretty good customer service. At least in my very limited, one-purchase-experience. Who knows, perhaps I was lucky, but in this case (pun slightly intended) I'll take it!

Re: Note 3 Case Thread.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience. I have contacted them after reading your post.

I do have to wonder how companies could make obvious mistakes like this. I mean, they must have manufactured the cases even before they got their hands on the Note 3, but who the hell does that? And does Samsung withhold information from third-party manufacturers so they can sell more of their own cases?
