5.0 out of 5 stars the case I've been looking for December 11, 2011

By A Reader

Color Name:Black| Size Name:Galaxy Tab 2 7.0|Amazon Verified Purchase

This is the case I've been waiting for--it's pretty similar to the very nice leather Kindle cases. I also have tried the Navitech flip case (fits beautifully but the easel feature doesn't work and the cover flaps awkwardly) and the Luxury graphite case (very solid feel, nice plush inside, but needs to be a few millimeters bigger in all directions). This one works the best:

--it's big enough to protect the Tab all around its edges and corners
--the easel feature works well in both landscape (bend the case at the back) and portrait (remove a velcro sleeve and reposition it) modes
--it's real leather and soft padding inside
--it fits around all the cameras, connections, etc.
--the magnetic catch holding the cover in place is very subtle but seems strong enough to work well.

I am not sure if the back of the case, where it has to fold to use the landscape easel, will hold up to folding and refolding multiple times a day, which is what it will probably get from me. But it seems pretty sturdy, so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt for now.

For now I think this is the case to get if you want real protection and a versatile easel function for your Tab 7.0 Plus. And the price is great--much less than the leather Kindle cases, which are very similar (the Kindle cases have a nicer leather smell, I have to admit).

The Amazon entry said "available Dec 28" when I ordered mine but I actually got it (shipped USPS) on December 9, which was a pleasant surprise.

5.0 out of 5 stars Have a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0" / Plus? Get this! May 2, 2012

If you own the older Galaxy Tab 7.0" tablets, this is NOT for you because ports and jacks will NOT be in the correct locations. BUT if you own the newer Galaxy Tab 7in tabs, this case will work just fine.

The construction of this case is very well done. It feels sturdy. I can rest assured that the back of the tab won't get damaged by scratches. Only down side is I don't feel like there's enough "hard" parts, that if I were to accidentally drop it that there wouldn't be any damage. Besides protection from hardware damage, all of the ports, the IR function, microSD card access, buttons, cameras, and the Light Sensor are all available. I own the newer Galaxy Tab 2 7.0" One thing I don't like also is the speaker openings are only two little holes for each speaker, which drowns out the sound a little, but not a lot. The stand function works fine on flat surfaces. Trying to view it on the bed is a little difficult because the back of the cover that bends doesn't bend completely 90 degrees; more like 80 degrees because the leather and sew job is a little tight.

A cool feature is the case is a two in one. Once you have the Tab inside the case insert, you can actually remove it from the cover's Velcro and use it like that with just the leather case around the tab or you can re-attatch it to the cover portrait ways (see product picture). It's a very simple, but intuitive feature. The case insert is leather on the front, but the back is fabric so it can attach to the velcro. A downside to that is if you remove the tab from the cover, the underside can get dirty really easily. But I keep mine in the cover anyway.

Now I mentioned the case can be used for both the Tab 2 and Tab Plus 7.0" but ultimately it was made for the Plus model. The cut-outs are specifically aimed to accommodate the Tab 2 7.0"s rear camera's LED lights, and the front Speaker at the top of the Tab (opposite the Samsung Logo). Also the Tab Plus is a little thinner by only a couple mm, so the Tab 2 is a little more of a tighter fit. But none of those are deal breakers because the case fits perfectly fine when it comes to functionality and form.

So overall, again, this case is perfect for people looking to protect their new Galaxy Tab 7in from minor scratches on the back of their tab and want to be able to use the camera and access all of their ports and cards. It's just perfect!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very happy September 30, 2012

The case for the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is perfect. The manufacturer made cutouts for the power button, volume control, front speakers, face-forward camera and face sensor, rear camera and flash, RF and audio ports, 30-pin power/adapter port, and the stylus - the speaker cutouts are perfectly sized so there is no sound loss. This case is very durable, looks sharp, and will definitely keep my tablet safe.

The tablet is housed in a smaller case that attaches to the main case via Velcro (the backing on the smaller case is a soft grey material and the outer case has a small area of Velcro that is used to join the two) so it is easy to detach and reattach to use either portrait or without the main case. Since Velcro is the joining material used and not a plastic swivel device like other case, this case is slim, flat on front and back, and is light. Construction is high quality, does not look cheap, and is stitched nicely; this is very well made.

I like the material used for the easel, it allows for a tremendous number of positions in landscape or portrait positions or for added friction grip when holding with an open hand. The only problem I have, and this is a very inconsequential issue, is getting the stylus out. The opening is a bit tight for my fat finger - the fact that I bite my nails is part of the problem.

If you buy this case I am confident you will be happy. The only thing I would have liked is if it were purple.
