Folding smartcover like ipad - Nexus 7 Accessories

Im looking for a folding case similar to the ones for an ipad.
Has anyone seen any of these?

Me too! But from what I've seen, there's nothing similar...I'm not liking ANY of the cases available for the Nexus 7 right now...all seem too bulky and just doesn't go with the whole tablet...

Me to, i'm after something like this that i have for my ipad. Veo ipad ultra thin cover.#
I don't like it when they have something covering the front bezel as it gets in the way, especially with a smaller tablet.
The official samsung book cover case for tha tab 7.7 was awesome!

The smart cover with a cover for the back is exactly what I'm looking for.

I'd say there's probably pretty huge demand for this among N7 buyers. One of the big draws for a 7" tablet is portability compared to a 10". I can fit the thing in my pants pocket or my inner coat pocket with ease and no real additional bulk. These huge covers currently on sale seriously take away from that.

I'd glady pay $25-40 for a tpu case with a folding smart cover that can be used as a stand as well. It would be thin, give protection on all sides & turn screen off automatically.
I agree the market is there for something like this, with the sales through the roof of the N7 I do think we will see alot of quality cases soon.

+1, we know the market is there, it just seems the manufacturers don't or they'd be making them....everything is some hefty duty thick ugly cover up your entire device type of case....

I think we'll start seeing cases like that in Middle/Late August or September. Most of the nicer cases that are made specifically for the Nexus won't come out until later.

I would love to have something like the Apple Smart Cover with Android Robot in GREEN!!!

I would like one too. Almost all cases for Nexus 7 that I have seen just makes the device bulkier.

I'd love a smart cover like the one for iPad's. I use a carbon fibre sticker on the back of my iPad to protect it and with the smart cover for the front, it hardly adds to the thickness. Currently using a playbook case (until the case I ordered comes in) and it definitely adds bulk.

Same here. I want something thin and foldable that's not cheap leather crap.

Nexus 7 case for Kids

So I want to buy 2 nexus 7 for my kids 5 and 2.5. I cant do it untill I find a case for kids. I cant find any drop test video of the stock case.
I am looking for something like http://www.gripcase-usa.com/Home_ep_45.html or http://wpcdn.padgadget.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/medge31-275x385.jpg
Please help
I bought my (now 5 year old) daughter a Lenovo tablet for christmas last year. It has held up well with just a rubber case. TPU maybe? I am not sure of the exact material, but it feels like rubber.
I think the N7 would be kid proof with that type of case, a screen protector... and some firm rules about the use of the device

I saw this but i dont think its thick enough, my 2.5 year old is an oaf. the best way to describe him is; remember the cartoons where that big monster guy runs through a wall and leaves a hole in the wall in the shape of said character, well thats what my son is like.
I'd wait for otterbox to come out with something. I've got one on an iPad (perfect for kids and old people) for my 3 kids and the thing is bomb proof. I couldn't use anything that bulky myself but its the only way to for kids IMO.

Bobj gear looks good, thanks!
Advice is welcome...
I have purchased a Nexus 7 as Christmas gift for my Family to use. I want to set it up and have my kids (4 year old twins, and 2 year old) be able to use it with "minimal" supervision. Much of the process is account setup and "sandboxing" what they have access to, the other part is protecting the hardware. I have purchased a screen protector to help prevent scratches, now I need to find a case with good protection that doesn't cost too much.
I'd like to keep the cost under $40. So far I have found:
BobjGear Rugged Case: REVIEW | $19 at Amazon
Poetic Revolution Case: REVIEW and HERE | $29 at Amazon
Seidio Active Case: REVIEW | $35 for case only and $45 with cover at Seidio -- slightly too high
I like the bright colors of the Bobj, for kids plus makes it easier to see if it was "misplaced"
I feel the Poetic case provides the best protection with built in screen protector and port covers (keeping things out of ports that shouldn't be there), this is the one I am most interested in and wish Poetic had other colors.
Seidio, I don't see anything it offers over the Poetic other than red, white, or blue options.
I'm aware of Gumdrop and Otterbox, but prices are too high for my taste; I'm not convinced they would provide better protection compared to the ones above.
Any options I'm missing?
I have a gumdrop case, makes it feel pretty solid, has a clear plastic screen protector and a 2 stage casing.

This case seems really nice. I paid less than $8 for two (shipped). Got here in three days from California (i live in central Florida).
It's pretty well made and no giant bezel covering.
The link is below and a video review below that.
Excuse the giant thumb. I tried to rip it off today at work.

First of all thanks for the video review. I just bought one of these to hold me over till more high end cases come out and are reviewed.
The one thing I like about this case is that it offers a vertical and horizontal stand positions.
Also, you scared me for a second there when you pulled the knife out
On a side note what rom are you running.? I really want to move the notification bar to the bottom where the best home, back, and app list buttons are.
How easy it to pull the N7 off of the anti slip adhesive? Just asking in case I want to dock it.
Quite like the look and functionality of that case. But how reliable is the adhesive? I would be worried about the Nexus 7 falling off suddenly...
The dodo case uses it as well I believe.

now that you've used it for a few days, i have the same questions as above. how reliable is the adhesive and how easy is it to remove? does it leave a residue on the back of the tablet?
I noticed that the case fits the Nexus 7 very well. Do you think a nexus 7 with a tpu case on it would still fit inside? I am worried about the height.

I'm curious too. I already bought it (it was cheap and the dual stands look sturdier than on other cases) but I'd like to keep the back of the Nexus as pristine as I can for as long as possible.

I've been using this case for about two days.
The case leaves a decent gap for the speaker and the adhesive is rock solid. It doesn't leave a residue.
SCARY! Just wanted to let you know to be VERY careful! I am on my second Nexus 7 as my first one the screen did crack after a light fall. And Asus is not fixing them for very cheap! Around $195 for the screen and repair costs, so I just spend about $60 bucks more and bought a brand spanking new one. Waiting for the OEM LCD's to come out and then will just repair it myself! Thanks to ifixit anything is possible! Anyway re-cautioning you to be careful!
Cheers,
Vanka
cool case. i didn't know this type existed.

How difficult do you think it would be to remove from the adhesive if you wanted to change cases or, say, had a really bad eye for lining things up but you're kind of a perfectionist when it comes to those things? *cough*
Wow, didn't expect repair costs to be that high.

Anybody waiting for better cases?

I liked the Poetic Slimline with the smart cover, but I'm hoping for something a little more quality. Anybody else holding out for better cases or is this best we've seen?
Yeah, I know what you mean. I made the mistake of impulse buying the Asus TPU case that doesn't stay closed. I'm currently tempted by the Portenzo Hardback because I like the idea of it looking like a moleskin book, but I'd also like something that didn't require "adhesives" and could pivot on a desk.
I have order the nilkin tpu case but im waiting something better with smart cover from bigger players like belkin...
I am. I went with a Portenzo initially but the case just didnt meet my expectations so Im in the market for sometihng new. I like the Blurex slim fit folio but I dont really want a black case.
I'm waiting for rokform to come out with a case... rokform.com I emailed them and asked if they were in the process of making a case and they said yes but no eta.

I just ranted a bit on another thread on this.
I sure hope someone, somewhere comes out with a decent case. Of seems everyone else making 7 inch tablets or EReaders seems to come out with very nice slime cover/cases ((Samsung, amazon kindles, hell even kobo). It has been long enough already.
To answer the question directly, yes I'm waiting anxiously for anything better.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Nope. I usually am all about craftsmanship, etc. but for some reason, a cheapo case is good enough for me. I guess because the "better" cases are almost always also bulkier and/or gaudier.
Edit: by the way, I have the same case as the OP and it does everything I need a case to do...basically protect the screen when shoved in a bag and not cost too much.
I'm waiting for Incipio to get their offerings on the table. A Lexington or LGND version would be great.
Hey guys,
we might have a couple of new winner:
http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/624779051/leather_case_for_google_nexus_7.html
http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/624836033/google_nexus_7_leather_case.html
They are similar to the poetic slimfit but hopefully they don't have the draw back and flaws.
(they seem to better protect the device than the other slim ebay cases)
I already asked the manufacturer if the cover properly fold all the way back, and if the auto sleep/wake function is triggered when the cover is fold back. waiting for the answer.
The problem: we need to buy at least 100 cases (wholesale manufacturer) ...
and I wasn't able to find these cases from a reseller neither on ebay nor on amazon ?

Kroo Neoprene Sleeve.. WONDERFUL!!!

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005C8RB8Y/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
***this is funny that this particular COLOR has such bad reviews because 8 other colors are all 4.5 stars***
There ya have it, the perfect sleeve for your nexus 7. Ever since i saw my mac toting cronie friends slide their macbooks into those neoprene sleeves like a glove, i've longed for the same expereince.
who is this for?
1. If you don't want to compromise the slim design of the nexus with a case.
2. You take your nexus 7 around with you a bunch. Perhaps would like to toss it into a bad or backpack but fear the reprocutions.
Lol as i write that list it starting feeling too much like an infomercial, but seriously, I've never heard of this brand before so i was giddy as could be to come out a victor. I slapped a zagg clear screen cover on my nexus have been walking around with a huge bulge in my pocket due to my fear of what would happen if i put it in my bag with my books and laptop.
The build it top notch. Neoprene feels good, the colors are bright. Zippers are solid and there is a neoprene lip that covers the inside track of the zipper to protect contact against your device. ANNNNNDDD of course it is just wonderful that it literally fits LIKE A GLOOOOVE. zero room for movement. And with a tiny front pocket zipper for perhaps cards, usb cable, or headphones. Other colors run for 8$ ish... red was the most expensive.

Good to know it is working out for you ....I would still be careful if it is really tight although you might not notice it right now but the edges of nexus 7 might start getting scratched.
here is another review from one of the other colors:
"Nice little case but unfortunately it doesn't fit the nexus 7!
Even tho it says it does.
Maybe it does if you don't have any kind of case on the nexus 7 and if you use 4 oz of axle grease!
I am returning it"
Ya ill keep an eye out however I've used it non stop, in out in out, and initially at least no signs of scratches! Ya about that review I did say this was for someone not wanting to use a case, defiantly would not fit. Grease would be a poor solution .... But the whole reason and all my praises came back to the point that it was a snug fit. I'll say it again with a naked nexus 7 its a perfect fit. Not hard at all to get it in and it fits perfectly and snug
Cheers
Thanks been looking for ANY REVIEW on Kroo cases.
I'll see if this one fits my budget.
I like my Nexus naked, but if I want to bring it to the gym if I plan to do a big bike session it's good to be able to catch up on some Tv shows without having to worry about it.
Hi there,
Its a pretty sleeve, i use sleeve case with my notebook, although i prefer using a flip case on my nexus, since it feels more secure, depending on the cases ofc. P.e. I got one from Belkin witch is designed for nexus 7 only, the tablet does not feel bulky at all, in fact it looks pretty nice, ill take some pictures so you can see what im talking about. Still, you have that extra factor, if the N7 falls with a cover it might not break the screen, but if it falls without it, well, that could be an whole other story. I respect your opinion though.
Ill be opening a thread about my case later, hope you check it out.

I prefer my tablet naked as I feel any case adds bulk and weight I don't want. Yet I worry about damage whenever I go anywhere. A sleeve like this is a great solution to my worries. I have one for my netbook and love it but never thought about a sleeve for my Nexus, no idea why.

Like i said, i respect the users opinions, though i got to agree with some, when they say the tablet gets a bit scratched over the corners. But when handled with care maybe it doesnt. Would never know since i never used it.

Might go naked on my N7 with this. With a Screen Protector, of course. Looks very nice and thanks for the review.
I used this for a long time and it worked perfectly even with a tpu case on the Nexus 7. After trying a few sleeves this one was truly a perfect fit and I don't think it would have damaged the Nexus without the tpu case it was a good fit without being too tight of a fit.

Slim Flip Case

About to pick up a 7 today and want to get a good case for it. I'm looking for one that adds very little bulk, yet has a flip cover and that doubles as a stand. I've seen the Poetic Slimline and Speck Fitfolio so far and both seem pretty good but I just want to make sure I haven't missed any other options. Thanks!
I kind like how this case looks.

I've heard a lot of talk about the poetic but I'm curious if the plastic back part gets all scratched up if it gets placed in bags or desks often. I'm also curious about other options.
Take a look at the eBay slim case I reviewed. It is a good case. Still my every day case.

Thanks for the suggestion but I'm not a fan of the ones that overlap like that into the front of the device.

I've tried about all of them except the speck and my favorite is the moko slim fit. They even have one in real leather now.

It's durable, feels good to carry around and has a lifetime warranty so if you wear it out they'll send you a new one.
The poetic slimline falls apart after about a week. It's good while it lasts.
I don't have the nillkin yet, but I think thats the other one to watch.

I'm very happy with the "Nexus 7 UltraSlim Case"
Just stumbled onto this: http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Magnetic...75047&sr=1-6&keywords=moko+slim+folio+nexus+7
Has anyone tried it?

This one looks like a winner for me as I'm also looking for a slim case.
Actually, its between this one and the nilkon. I can't decode.

I have the Poetic Slimline. I was searching for a cover just like you were, and it was the best one I could find. I love it. It it super slim, high quality, and it comes in a bunch of colors now.
hit up the thanks button plz:

If you're the type of person that prefers quality made things then stay away from the Poetic case! I regret buying the Poetic. I just barely received it today and can't stand this cheap quality case. After owning cases for iPads and Kindles, I don't even know how anyone can tolerate these poorly made cases.
I still can't decide between the Nillkin and the Moko

I too am searching for a good, slim case that will not fray like the poetic, nor be faulty like the veo

Thats pretty cool looking. Looks alot like my Speck case.
My buddy has a poetic case and between my Speck and his the speck is a bit better. His is slightly thinner but the magnetically closing front isnt as good as the specks clasp. The clasp holds much better in a bag than the magnet and the speck has far superior viewing angles for the stand.

I don't understand the Poetic-hating. I love mine. Had it for a couple weeks now, and it is holding together fine. No fraying. This thing is as good as I could've asked it to be.
Threw a couple decals on there and BAM. Awesomeness.

So don't order this case: http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Magnetic...75047&sr=1-6&keywords=moko+slim+folio+nexus+7
The seller never shipped it and after 3 days since the expected delivery, and no way to contact the seller, Amazon had to refund the order.
