Anyone have any experience with this case? It seems some of the Xoom guys have Acase cases and like them. This one's under $10 if you use their promo code. I'm tempted to pull the trigger, but I have some other things to purchase, first.

Can you share the promo code for others, or is it a one-time thing? The item costs about $18 with shipping.

It's a tough one. I'd like a case, but I don't want the T-Mobile Folio case since it's not a good fit by all accounts. At the same time, I don't want to get this one if it's a POS, too. For instance, it looks like it doesn't completely fold out. But, for $10, I might just have to.
Just ordered one. Less than 15 bucks shipped, I figured I couldn't beat that even if its a POS.
I will let you guys know what I think once I get it.

Got mine yesterday. This is a very nice case, especially at the price. I will continue to use it when I go out of the house with my streak. The leather is good quality and the fit is good if not perfect. But I think it will l protect very well.

Well I got mine yesterday and for 10 bucks I think its awesome. It fits very snug and I can reach all the buttons with ease.
The only thing I can complain about is the piece of leather that goes around the screen kinda bows up a little bit but that may be cause its so new and just needs to break in a little bit.

Yeah, promo code's gone, now. I ended up getting a wicked sweet murse, so I didn't purchase this. I'll post on it in a bit.
Doing pretty well
I have been using the case for a while now. I still like it, but it does slide a bit left to right. So for example if I wanted to use the camera (which I don't), I might have to position the device a bit to make sure the holes aligned.
Still can't beat it for the price...
I just picked it up, unfortunately not for $15 but for $25. For $15 I'd be happy, but it does not fit as snug as I'd like. I think it's going back, and I'm going to bite the bullet on the dell rotating case. Now if they can just do free shipping again.
Just got it today, i'm a happy camper! well built! fits snugly!

This review (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8204705#post8204705) is fairly negative about the quality of the screen protector. For covering the back of the phone, I'm not so concerned about the look. But I don't think I want it on the screen.
Yeah, there's a huge thread about these.
Their instructions say to apply a solution, that was not provided nor instructed on how to make our own.
I ordered 2 sets for my HTC EVO. With both sets only the front screen protector was removable, the rear and sides were not cut all the way through the plastic. Taking a razor blade to it often lead to disaster.
I won't recommend them, no matter how cheap they are. You get what you pay for.
I didnt care for the screen one.. used the back though... but for free what do u expect.lol
Waterproof and Fully Functional Case!!!
I will be getting a new case in a couple of weeks that has yet to hit the market. It is 100% waterproof and very functional for those of you that are boaters, beach goers and pool sitters. See pic below. I will have them on eBay for $39.95 but for all of you here on XDA, it will be $30.00 + $3.00 shipping. I can invoice you via paypal or we can do the cashier check and mail thing. My eBay user name is "goulpher36" if you would like to check my feedback. You can reserve one if you send me an email and mention "XDA".

I have that case in red without the sleep wake magnet. I decided to order a TPU case recently, and a slip cover plus a car mount. Folio cases make it harder to mount in the car which I actually like to do, oddly enough. GPS is excellent on the N7.

Yeah $60 would never have happened. My tablet normally hangs around the house so the Moko case seems a bit overkill for me. And hopefully the clips hold it in.

It's a Kindle Fire. Looks like the other cases out now.
Poetic makes the same one for a few dollars more. Looks like this is the cheapest one. I'm ordering.
Long live the One X
MoKo, Bluerex, and a few others are making what appears to be the exact same case for a few bucks more. Did they skimp on materials, or are they identical. Warranties? Anyone know? I would think they are all buying them from the same manufacturer, so I'm curious how these guys sell foll less than half the others.
Hey, thanks for posting that! That's exactly what I'm looking for (a case that doesn't completely cover the bezel, has multiple angles, and cheap). I just pre ordered mine as well, and will be using it until Speck releases their FitFolio for the Nexus.That's the case I ultimately want, but this $5.00 case looks like it will hold me over just fine for now.

These guys probably bought a large quantity from the manufacturer and probably got a big discount which equals best price for the consumer. Makes sense no?

Depends how much profit they want to take. You can look these cases up on alibaba to see where they come from - the manufacturer is happy to emboss a logo on the front to make it look branded. I wouldn't be surprised if there were a couple of different factories ready to supply the same basic design, but doubt there'll be much difference in quality.
[Edit: I can't find this design on Ali Express at the moment, but similar cases are running for around $6-7 in lots of 20-50, so $4.99 is getting pretty close to the base manufacturer price.]
Wow, I am so annoyed with amazon's shipping. Not the first nice case I've found, and for such a nice killer price too that won't ship to Canada. The case concept is exactly what I'm looking for. I found this one that ships to Canada branded by i-bason, but it's 24 bucks with shipping though looks the same. I'm debating either ordering that or waiting until more 'look alike' cases appear on amazon that ship to Canada.

Yeah, very strange. Thanks for the link. I think I'll see if anyone else gets this branded case before jumping in. Like you said, there is almost no profit for EXOTEK, and that doesn't even include shipping/transport for them. Something seems off about the price. For not much more, there is a bit more peace of mind I think.

This is almost identical to the ViperTEK case I had for my Tab 8.9 which I loved. I just pre-ordered this as well. Looks like it has a magnetic as well for on/off functionality which is a bonus. Thanks for posting this.
Looks like they raised the price to $8.99 + $4.99 shipping...
I checked my invoice to be sure, and sure enough it's still at $4.99 and no shipping charges. Maybe a mistake on their end by having that original price, or they saw the orders coming in and thought they could make a few more bucks by raising the price?

Similar to this, which i have purchased but not yet received. I almost think I might like mine a tad better, dues to the hand strap. But we'll see when it comes in.
Sorry for repost
Friend showed me this earlier. There are just too many similar cases out right now but this looks to be the most inexpensive. If you guys are interested, I'd order before the price goes up again.
I had no plans to get a case (unless there eventually came a good one with keyboard), but I really like the look of this one for the price and the hand strap. I like to sit in bed for a a while before bed and play with it. That might come in real handy lol

I had this last week in my cart, asked Alex at blurex about color options, he said any color I like as long as it's black. Went to make the buy and there suddenly weren't any in stock. Alex sends me another note telling me he took them off because of the sleep/wake issues when folding the cover back. Today checked again and it was back in stock but at double the price..
Much appreciated. Just ordered. $5 off, hard to say no when it cost $12 shipped int he first place. Probably not my final case, but a good standby till the case makers get in their groove.
Just ordered one as well. What a steal!!!!!!
Just jumped on the "I ordered one" wagon as well.
By the looks of the screenshot, it looks like it's notched out to pivot in place when angling in landscape mode. I hope this is the case with the actual unit. Some quick reviews I looked at suggested instead of it being notched out that it actually had velcro on it. I can't say I'm a huge fan of velcro, since continual usage would of course wear it out. At any rate, a steal for the price, but let's hope for a little more while we're at it. :good:

Just ordered one, looks like everything is exposed (unlike some cases). As long as it folds back 180 degrees and is comfortable to hold, I'll be happy.

You can't pick them up in stores since they are custom made and shipped. They do ship Worldwide, so you can order it, it will just take a while if you get the cheapest shipping option. Since I live in Canada, shipping is around $14, but worldwide looks to be around $17, so not too much of a difference.
Not so expensive shipment..thank you then!
