Let's hope so. You would think that comes standard instead of optional.

I may be blind (must stop doing that naughty stuff ), but I couldn't find a link to the N7 product range from the portenzo main page .
Anyway, here's a direct link: https://shop.portenzo.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=bookcase-for-nexus
Look pretty stunning, not too bulky. BUT not cheap! Particularly if you're shipping internationally.
I think I may get one...
/edit: Notes/warning
1. Introductory offer starting at $39.95 so 10 bucks off.
2. I've read some pretty negative reviews about delivery time and customer service (from iCrap discussions) - a month or more to get the case, company deletes negative reviews and warnings about delivery times etc. So. Premium may come at a price that is more than just dollars!
edit2: Oh dear: Not what you'd expect for such a premium product: http://insofar.org/blog/portenzo-ipad-case/

Aww man it doesn;t have all the options like the ipad ones :|

Great find. I was looking at some cheaper cases but nothing really looked worth the money. Ordered mine tonight, hope it ships soon!

Since it has the smart cover magnets, I am in for one.

That was an interesting review. I love the book style cover and I guess after a year the case starts to wear out. I've read mostly positive reviews about their cases and only complaints really was about shipping time issues. Either way I think I'm going to give them a shot. Just emailed them about prices for the other style cases.
For some one who ordered it already, what options did you select and what was the final total?

I've had a portenzo case back when the Ipad 2 just got released.
Amazing product my case is still intact today, im totally going to get one for my nexus

wow these cases are expensive. I might invest i'm not sure yet...

Nice looking case and a little cheaper than Treegloo.

I think the mark of a good company is not necessarily an excellent product, but what they do when things go wrong. It seems that this is where Portenzo falls a bit short. And a 90 day warranty? If you're pitching something as a 'premium' product, and you're only prepared to offer 3 months on that superior workmanship, what are you saying to your customers ?
I don't have a lot of respect for iSheeps - they're generally little lambs being led to the slaughter with wallets held in front, and I'm just a bit wary that this is a company that takes this into account :silly:.
Having said that, I have ordered one - it's the kind of case I'm looking for, so I'm going to take a chance. Will review as soon as it arrives (and also comment on speed of production & delivery). They claim that they'll be shipping the first ones by Friday, but I assume these will be a batch that they've pre-made and it'll be to people who just happen to have ordered what they predict will be the most popular format...

Probably gonna end up keeping treegloo. Treegloo looks slightly nicer. Also has a yellow cloth inside to protect the screen.

I'd be all for Portenzo if they had a composition book style for the Nexus 7. I'd also like a better warranty.

I emailed too. Heard back today that there will not be a composition case. Bummer! I'm looking at GT 7.7 cases now since the dimensions are similar. May give Zenus a look.
I have a Kayscase coming as well as screen protector. There's also a chance I'll stop there. I can get a little case crazy. You should have seen me with my now sold iPad. I was obsessed.

Would like to see a better design, with magnetic strip enabled rather than a $10 added on feature.

too bad no grey cover.

I can't make up my mind between treegloo and portenzo.

I like this guy. Deadmau5 pic and demanding genuine leather! I'm hoping for a case from these guys: http://www.vajacases.com/ - Got one for my PlayBook last year and it's awesome.
Shame they got shipped and delivered to the UK first yet there are very few accessories released here yet. Will be a while until we have a genuine leather case with the 'smart' magnetic bit.
that case has been on sale for years. it's so ugly. Giant leather bondage strap holding down your nexus 7? ugly.
I picked up a leather smart case similar to this one at Big Lots for $8.00. High quality material ! They have lots of 7" case options there for a budget price......scrarch resistant screen protectors , stylus pens , bluetooth speakers etc....
BigLots. com serach the left hand side by ELECTRONICS to see their tablet stuff.
I say patience is a virtue. We all know the tablet for what it is. You either like it or you don't. Most of us have already pre--ordered and are waiting for them to arrive right now.
As far as the caes go, I'd rather feel what they're like in my hand. Via pictures of cases online, 10 look great for ipad and other devices, however only 1-2 actually feel and function as nice as they seem to be described and pictured online.(not cheap feeling, or feeling like they'l literally fall apart, lacking features cleverly not pictured, etc.

For me none of the cover/cases on Amazon (I was at the local Best Buy to take a look at 7" stuff) are aesthetically pleasing. I ordered a "padded pouch" off Etsy.com and I'm gonna get a sturdy "case" when one becomes available.

EXOTEK Premium Slim-Fit Folio Cover Case

So here's a case I pre-ordered for $4.99 total. Not sure if it's worth it or not, but hey for 5 bucks I figured it was worth a shot. What do you guys think?

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?

Is this the same as moko's version?

Definitely an easy pass. Case isn't worth $20 itself, needless to say another $10 to ship it. What a joke Google...
Not to hijack the thread. Just a question for everyone. It has probably been discussed elsewhere but you all seem interested on the topic. I know people have discussed if Google was in violation of crapple's patent for the smart cover. Do you ever wonder if Google decided to launch the device without a smart cover in order to not draw attention to it to avoid a lawsuit knowing others would make accessories utilizing it? They could claim it was for a dock or something.
I know this is a stretch, but how else do you explain such a pointless accessory? Also I know the Apple patent was very specific to the actual smart cover and that Google will be fine.

Also I currently have a leather case that is smart and fits perfectly in.... but I want it thinner.... And I can't get the "looks like a 15 year old nokia case" out of my head.:laugh:
The rubber rounds the edges and raises the screen. Good enough for setting it down and providing some defense from casual tumbles from the bed or couch. I don't want a smart cover, I use a password every time and the button is right there. Why do people always find stuff to complain about, instead of ways to enjoy what you just bought. There will always be something better, find what works for you.

New Portenzo Hardback Case/Cover

Brand new Portenzo Hardback case. This was just released and is currently on sale for 2 days only @ $19.95! Watch the video for a demo of the super stick grip tape.
I'm still a very happy Portenzo BookCase customer. their quality and customer service is outstanding!

It does, but the Dodo is way more expensive and only available in 4 colors. Portenzo has a better reputation, less expensive and way more colors to chose from. Looks like I am buying another Portenzo today!

Was liking it until I saw the adhesive approach to securing the device. Like everything else about it - moleskine type design, quality materials.
Anyone have any experience with the sticky pads?
Do they leave any residue if you remove your device?
I'm assuming they are a one time use as well?

If it's anything like this one:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008A1XN28/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
Then the "sticky" is extremely sticky!
Enough so that when I tried to remove the N7, the back cover came off the tablet!
I don't mean that in some awful "it broke!" way...it's just that the adhesive is stronger than the tablet's back cover retainers.
So if you were scared to pry open your N7 with a screwdriver...this is an alternate way to open it.
But if you're careful and go slow, the tablet comes off and there is no residue.
The adhesive can be wiped down with water and when it dries, it's good to go!
I tested the case on my N7, then put my Galaxy Tab 2 7" in it, then back to the N7.
Since the Portenzo costs more than twice as much...I'd hope their adhesive is just as good if not better to work with than the $9 case!
Ordered mine yesterday in firetruck red! Pretty excited about this. I was looking for something classy but with thin profile so Bookcase came close but this hardbook was a better fit for my needs.
Does anyone now how long it takes for them to ship? Happy Friday all
I wonder how the quality compares to the dodocase.

I have the casemate tuxedo for the kindle fire using the sticky pad. It's re-usable and does not leave a residue. I sent my first kindle back and got a replacement from Amazon, no issues re-applying the pad on the replacement, just as sticky as the first time.
cant make it stand though, so a big nono for me
was going to wait till i got home to order but byt he time i did the price was back up to 39.99 :crying:
Looks like a good alternative to the Dodocase! I managed to place an order before the sale ended too. At $19.99, it was too good of a deal to pass up.
I just ordered mine (yes I know I said it looks like the Dodo but I couldn't help myself). And it was still 19.99 only I ordered the composition which added 9.99.

Ordered the scarlet one too. I'll post some pictures when it arrives. Including shipping to Germany it came 35,98 €. Compared to eg official Samsung covers it really isn't that expensive. The thing i wonder is, if we may see some more accesoires in the near future (dock perhaps)? Hopefully Google has something more to come...
It came to just over £30 in the UK. 3 - 5 Shipping days. Can't wait!
Guys any video for this official case?
Wat you guys recomment, should I order this or get the poetic slimline???
Price difference of 20 dollars !!
sent from seXperia Z - Black
It doesn't cover the back of the device, or the corners. Much better 3rd party cases already available.
I can't believe I waited all this time for what is effectively a flap. It doesn't even fold into a stand!

...and an expensive flap at that, seemingly designed by somebody late at night whilst drunk in a pub.

I like the concept of not covering the back, but I agree it should fold. It´s seems prety rigid, making it even somewhat uncorfortable to hold the tablet. I will wait for some reviews and photos around here.

Same here, its a crap design for $30. I'm going to stick with the poetic case. Id prefer something that just covered the front (im not clumsy) because the tablet is so thin and light and then folds into a stand but this isnt it.
