Had my 4G since release day and could never find a body glove case for any type of Nexus S. Did some searching and found one and bought it. Review coming upon arrival!
You can check out the case at Wireless Ground's web site. I would link it but for some reason it's a rule not to...
Just ordered it last week. Looking forward to reading your review
i love this case.!
Is it sticky and a lint magnet like the silicone one is?
its not sticky at all. its more textured rubber. matte. want me to post a pic.?
Yes please.
excuse the pics. they were taken on a galaxy s. i couldn't find batteries for the kodak.
I have had one for a few months and love it.

Thats very disappointing

I had it on both my nexus one and galaxy s vibrant, it was the best case ever.

totally agree. people who previously had barely there should try tough case, only a extra +$10 but totally worth it. made it feel so solid in the hand
Awesome! I can't wait!!
i cant wait
Seems to be available in the UK! the forum wont let me post a link though
But theres no way I am going to spend $50 for a case... hopefully they come out soon in the US for a more reasonable price
Are we talking about this case from case-mate?

I agree...a barely there case would be great but frankly I'm really wanting something better than my sh***y Platinum Case from BB. If this is available in the US soon for a reasonable price, I might break down and buy it.

Thats it! it looks like ALL the other Pop Cases... what did you expect? I think the pop case is pretty awesome, I have seen them on an Iphone 4 and it really looks great in person. I love the one piece design soft inside and the hard outer shell. Its like the Tough case, but one piece.

This is on Kickstarter, but they are supposedly going to be ready to ship N7 cases in October. $40 each.

It's a novel idea *buh duh chaaaa* but it looks like the inside is made from plastic? It's about the same price as the Portenzo/Treegloo cases without the options too.

Rubberized plastic, it looks like. Might be a bit more durable than wood.
I've been on that kickstarter page since launch but last communication with them, I asked about smart covers. They said they wanted to keep the case simple as possible and not include it.
Other than that, I do agree, they resemble the treegloo/portenzo/dodo/reauthored cases, just without a lot of customization.

Hi All,
I recently purchased a Nexus 7 case that I was extremely un-impressed by. The seller completely lied about everything on the case, it was a totally different colour, layout etc (BASICALLY A DIFFERENT CASE THAN PURCHASED)
I have had a re-fund but its not about the money, I love my N7 and think it is a smart device, (looking wise) haha.
I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a case?
I want:
A nice looking case that doesn't ruin the N7.
It has to be comfortable to hold and not add to much bulk to the N7.
Obviously has to be protective, but has to feel nice.
Would like one with a Sleep/Wake function (Unless someone recommends a nice pouch rather than case, as I don't take it out much so a pouch could be sufficiant)
Finally, I would like if possible, it to be able to be used a stand.
IT DOES NOT HAVE TO COVER ALL OF THESE AREAS!
Thanks in advanced people !!
Do some work yourself, read the forum here and check out the reviews.

Thanks for the recommendation, and im also glad you know the meaning of "Recommend" as the above poster clearly doesnt have the knowledge base.
I may purchase one of those, they look sleek and professional in my eyes, does it feel like its protective?
Wow, I really !! REALLY !! Like that case !

Haha, that made me chuckle.
This may already be known, and but I emailed Portenzo to ask about book cases for the N10. A CSR got back to me shortly and informed me that they were working with the device now and hoped to have a product ready soon.
Personally I'm very excited about this since I still love the Portenzo case on my N7.

My friend is getting the nexus 7 and he asked me what case he should get. I immediately told him to get a Portenzo case. They have great build quality and materials. I've actually been holding off getting a case for my N10 to see if and when Portenzo was releasing one. I'm stoked

I've got the Hardback for my N7 in black with red trim. It's a nice slim case thanks to the nifty mounting solution, doesn't add a lot of bulk. Does the job of protecting the screen when travelling, comes right out when not, and isn't unpleasant to use in the hands with the case on.
Quality wise, it's a whole lot better than that "vegan leather" or TPU crap you find on Ebay/Amazon for $10.
Not a big fan of the more expensive BookCase style units due to the extra bulk, but a co-worker has one for his iPad, with the Intellistand option, and it's a clever system.
Yeaaaah!
This case is exactly what I'm looking for.
Thanks for the heads up!

The burden on YOU is to actually read and comprehend the original post. Then you would have immediately known there were no pictures at this time.
Me, I found the OP useful, learned something I didn't know, it had an impact on my near-term case buying decisions.

Personally I stopped following the multi-page case thread, it's just constant re-posting of Amazon links to the same 2 or 3 variations of cheap Chinese stinky fake leather cases they've been churning out for the last few years.

Theres always a wise guy in the bunch
No pics available, but yet some know it all posted a link to the pics???
If you could comprehend and READ,you would know that he mentioned another case as well. You only assumed I was asking for nexus 10 pics.my response is what assumptions get you.because then you would know the expected pic would be of the nexus 7 one,since common sense says he's interested in one for nexus 10 because of the one already out for the 7.
But if you don't have common sense,then I apologize for my reply.that wouldn't be fair

Won't it scratch the phone? Especially the plastics on the phone?

There's some kind of rubber on the inside, which holds the phone tight and prevents it from scratching. Until now everything looks still fine. (for the rubber, refer to the pictures on the post from kist32, quoted above.
Why would it? It's supposed to fit like a glove, so it wouldn't be able to achieve any kind of friction.

Well my friend, metal n plastic doesnt go to well especially when u take it out n in all the time. But i didnt realise that the bumper had rubber so its all good
thx 4 links
I chose this one as with the screen protector front and back both antishatter sheets are protected, however the back generally gets abused from general use. This one has a semi flexible acrylic back panel which is clear
