hi all im in the uk and just want you to know as I have not seen on the forums....
PC world online have the nexus 7 case i have recieved mine today cost was £19.99
first thoughts makes the nexus 7 look really nice and fits perfectly the downsize is the flap doesnt close and does not have the sleep function
is this cuz of a stupid apple patent?
No to rain on your parade but its only £12.99 on car phone warehouse.

but carphone warehouse don't actually have any in stock or any real sign of when they will, just coming soon.
isn't asus official case for nexus 7 sucks? it's expensive, it's flappy and does not close properly, it does not have any sleep wake function.. it worth like 5$ max.
I think I'm one of the few that likes the official case, unlike most other cases it doesn't add too much bulk, it's not perfect but I'd hardly say it sucks.

Thanks for the good laugh :laugh:
I was wondering if there is a smart cover for the Nexus 7. It would be like the iPad smart cover. I have seen one, but it did have a backing and seemed it needed the backing the fully function.
Any sightings?

I'm looking for this too...the ipad one basically doesn't have a back on it...

You won't be able to get a smart cover like the iPads as they are magnetised to each other. As far as I know the Nexus does not have a magnetic strip down the left side, although I think you'd be able to stick one on and make your own smart cover

that's what you're looking to get for sure
it's too hard to find a smart cover for Nexus 7, below smart cover will be a good choice which recommended by my colleauge:

I just bought this and its pretty amazing.

just saw this on onesaleaday.com
Logitech Bluetooth keyboard designed for Galaxy Tab 10.1 but will work with any HID device. Not sure how the N7 would sit but its 10 bucks plus 4.99 shipping. Thinking about rolling the dice on this one

"The smaller tablet is not as good at content creation as its larger siblings, but for those curious about external keyboards I found one that works with the Nexus 7. The Logitech Keyboard Case for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 pairs and works with the Nexus 7, even the special tablet control keys. The Nexus 7 doesn't fit in the stand, though, so it's an iffy pair at best."
I just actually received this keyboard today. It's very high quality, sturdy and typed very quickly when I paired it with my HTV Evo 4G LTE. Unfortunately, my nexus is RMA-ing right now so I'm not able to try it with that. I stuck my old kindle keyboard (about the same size as the nexus 7) in the built-in stand just to see how it fits and it stood fine, however I'm concerned that the nexus 7 might be too thick.
However, if you use this and a decent folio case from amazon, it is BY FAR the cheapest and probably best option I've seen.

WTF are you talking about? What does this have to do with the original post? How do you know the nexus doesn't fit if you don't even have yours?

His link is wrong I think, but the rest kind of makes sense.

I ordered one too, but I looked online at reviews for that website and they were not the best. I have my fingers crossed.
What a great buy... I would totally go for this if I hadn't already ordered another for double that price and probably not bear the quality
.:: Nexus 7 :: ParanoidAndroid :: JB ::.
ordered
only 15 bucks, i ordered a couple. i have Nexus 7, wife has an HTC Flyer.
even if the stand doesn't work, it looks like a good emergency keyboard for the times when we have to do work but don't have a laptop handy.
Ordered. If it doesn't work for me I guess my girlfriend can use it for her fruit branded tablet.

The link is accurate. Scroll to the bottom of the review. He talks about this specific keyboard's (which is actually a case/keyboard designed for the Galaxy Tab 10.1) built-in stand not fitting the Nexus 7. I'm confused as to where you are confused.
Nice find!
Ordered me one, at that price why not its Logitech and most of their stuff is good.

I have about 38 minutes left to pull the trigger. Im not sure what to do. If it doesnt work then im stuck with another piece of tech laying around and the lady will not be happy. On the other hand, I could probably just resell it and make the 15 bucks back and then some.

The onesaleaday.com item is a keyboard stand but it doubles as a "case" where you can "lock" your galaxy tab 10.1 onto the recessed keyboard. The Nexus 7 will not fit that way obviously but Im thinking it will fit in the 'stand' part of it.
EDIT: Galaxy Tab 10.1 Thickness is .33" - Nexus 7 Thickness is .41". Probably will not fit. A couple of mm makes a big difference
If nothing else, its still a cheap bluetooth keyboard solution
I just got mine today in the mail and I'm using it right now to type this and its pretty good, feels well built and connected with no problem. The Nexus doe not fit in the stand to hold it up, its too thick, but I knew that before I bought it, for the price it seems to be worth it 15$ shipped and it has shortcuts to different programs like email and Google Now and can control the volume. I'm happy with it!

Hey guys, lately I've been looking around for cases and screen protector's for my Nexus 7. I saw this sale for Kindle Fire cases and decided to try one out. It turns out that the case fit almost perfectly (except that it covered the head phone jack). I also bought a Kindle Fire screen protector and it covered the screen perfectly without covering the light sensor and camera. So let me ask you this, would you buy stuff that's compatible with your Nexus 7 that's cheaper? Or would you rather purchase something that's made specifically for your Nexus 7 that's more expensive?

Anybody know if the Nexus 6 will have magnets in the back like the Nexus 5 and 7 for alignment with chargers like the official Nexus charger and the AirDock?
