Another Kindle Fire Case....(this one is super nice though) - Nexus 7 Accessories

I need to know if anyone has any info on whether this case would fit the nexus 7 or not. I'm in love with this case but not enough that I want to jump the gun without knowing.

I wouldn't put money on it, it clips in and the dimensions of the N7 are different, chances are the clips wont work.

My wifes kindle fire cover fits perfectly on my nexus 7 but it also has elastic slip on corners

The Fire is 8mm shorter than the N7 and a little bit deeper, a hard case is not going to fit.

Probably the same one I have...belkin basic case...its a pain in the arse to adjust the volume and turn the screen on but its protecting it for now. If its the same one, I would not recommend it.

Vangoddy Case - wrist support cases?

Hey guys,
I like to watch a bit of tv/video in bed on my Nexus 7, but have found it quite uncomfortable on the wrists after a while, especially if I am (as I like to do), laying on my side. So I have been looking for a case/cover which might provide a little relief to the wrist. To be honest I've not found much. Perhaps you guys can point me in the right direct for alternative solutions. The only thing I've so far found is a "Vangoddy Cases" available on Amazon here.
Anyway, for those of you who have had similar thoughts/have problems with arthritis etc I thought I'd flag this product up. Anyone find anything else please do let me know by replying to this post.
I know the youtube vid is not for the Nexus but you get the idea!
Cheers.

This is what I ordered for mine. My old 8.9 Galaxy Tab case was like this, except this one has a hand strap which I wish I had with my old case.

Yes I have the hard case (Harlin) , since I traveling on a crowded metro to and from work. There's a pouch for usb cases.
PS this "Logitech" bluetooth keyboard for Android 3+ works
all special keys work {calendar, mail, Google music app, volume}, but
the browser does not { need to investigate}.
I love my Nexus 7 - stock and all.

I just tried a Belkin case that used those corner straps and it covered up the power button.

Screen only cover?

Does anyone know if the magnets on the N7 would support an iPad smart cover style front?
I had a wooden Miniot smart cover for my iPad and loved it. And I love how the N7 feels in the hand so I don't want to add bulk.
I've not heard of any though...

Looks sweet! This would match perfectly with my Mica Plank watch
I sent an email request to see if they will even think of creating one for the N7. We'll see :fingers-crossed:
We won't ever see this I think. The iPad has 2 sets of magnets. One of the left to anchor the case, one on the right to turn the screen on/off. The N7 has one on the left for on/off only.
Such a shame. I hate how much bulk most cases add.
Better keep my eyes open for the thinnest case I can find.

I sent them an email yesterday and have yet to hear a response. I'll update if there is an answer. :fingers-crossed:

Got a response today and they said no. :crying:
Hunt goes on! LOL
Considering the back of the N7 can come off with a fingernail, we almost need a replacement back for the N7, with an attached screen flap. I think there's an antenna in the stock back though... so an aftermarket case may exclude that. Not sure if it's just a NFC antenna or what?

I just found this new case and it looks pretty awesome. I currently have the Moko rotating case which I really like because it doesn't cover the bezel but it lacks the magnetic clasp to keep it closed and is built somewhat cheap IMO. That is what I really like about my RooCase is the build quality. But I hate that if I want to use it in portrait I have to mess around with the Velcro and angles which is annoying when I just want to read (I mainly have been reading comics which are mainly in portrait but some landscape double pages occur). Also having it cover the bezel can sometimes get in the way. This new SecondShells Orbit case seems to fulfill all my needs so I just ordered one. I'm not so sure it has a stylus holder but that's not a deal breaker for me. I'll post some pics once I get it. :victory:

You can get the same case on Amazon or eBay for half that price m8.

Just checked. Same case on amazon is the same price as from the OP's post. Where did you see it for half the price?

Yeah I searched pretty good too. I only found one at the same price with a shipping fee on amazon when you can get free shipping directly from their website.

My DIY Nexus 7 and Galaxy Nexus Combo Stand

This is what you get on a boring Friday night.
Parts:
DVD case
White cardboard
Whiteout
Ducktape
Glue stick
I took a spare DVD case I had lying around (bonus points cause it's white and matches my desk). Then I fashioned it into a tablet stand. You do this by taking off the plastic and bending the tabs outwards. Then you secure the case in some way so that it doesn't slide. I have no string so I ducktaped the case open.
Then I took some cardboard and bent it into the proper shape to fit the Galaxy Nexus. I took an even smaller piece of cardboard and used that to make sure the Galaxy Nexus wouldn't slide out of place. I secured that using the glue stick.
Then I painted everything in whiteout to make it nice and sharp.
Obviously this could be much cleaner looking if I had the right parts but this is what I could make due with in my new apartment which has basically nothing in it.
Enjoy

Keyboard Case

It has been said in these forums that the Galaxy Tab 2 cases fit the Nexus 10.
If that is so, what do you think the chances of this fitting are?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Samsung-Galaxy-Tab10-1-P7510-P7500-Aluminium-Ultra-Slim-Bluetooth-Keyboard-Case-/300671670508?pt=UK_iPad_Tablet_Accessories&hash=item46016d98ec
I think it looks good and if it works with the Nexus
Logitech makes something very similar for the g tab 10.1,and my buddy has it. I I tried to make it fit, and nothing doing. One dimension fit fine, but not the other.
Sure going to get me one of those when it comes out for the n10 though. they make lap typing possible.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2
Be careful though as i ordered another one that clips on at the corners which switches the N10 off!! Obviously the Tab 2 has its power button on the side!

Although it's not aluminium, which apart from Android not fully liking UK keyboard layouts, works fine as I'm using it to type this

It looks really good. I asked the seller about compatibility with the N10 or at least to try to find out.
I found this video with the galaxy tab and I think it's the same case.

This just showed up on Amazon.ca

Looks too bulky to me but others might like it.

If you're going to stick your Nexus 10 in that you might as well have bought a Transformer.

Not really, no.
But thanks for that scintillating insight.
