No but you can test it for us and let us know. Do a 3ft drop, 5ft drop, skid across the pavement to get a good sample.
Not yet and I'm afraid I will some day. I've dropped my Kindle fire multiple times. It's built like a s**the brickhouse with gorilla glass. I like the nexus 7 a lot better but am pretty sure it'll break real easily.
Yep from counter top about 3.5'feet onto face, but I had the things across corner to hold in case so wasn't a flat fall. Nothing wrong, kicking ass and chewing bubble gum.

I dropped mine and the back partially snapped off. I freaked the **** out lol. Snapped it back though, no damage done
This device is build like a tank I wouldn't worry. You can even smash it against the wall and only the back will go flying lose. Best tablet build ever.

I just use a business card holder. Sits nicely on my desk and matches my other business card holder actually holding business cards.

Same here (but g19). Kind of defeats part of the purpose of this keyboard but oh well.
If anyone is considering this, I highly recommend it.

Man looks good but I'd love to see bigger pics of it
Hey looks awesome. Got the same one. Only diff is I got mine from Skinome. Love it.

Is it a thick case like thing? Or is it more of a scratch proof film?
Looks preety nice though, how much did it run?
Got the exact same skin. Ireally like it that i had to reorder it when i got my phone replaced.
Installation tips. Leave the tiny bubbles alone. Theyll go away after a while. Dont be over zealous with pushing them out. To much preasure during the installation causes stretchmarks to appear on the film. Thats about my only critique of the thing.
Once its all set up... its perfect.
@caiaphas
Its a non-scratch film for the screen and non-scratch sticker for the rest. So it doest add match to the size of you device.
Phantom also sells the the full film kit for both body+screen. I do really like the look of the carbon-fiber body stickers.
Just go with the black though, dont be tempted with the white.... it might look good in theory but unless your phone is actually white, its not gonna look good
i dont need a signature
here is a larger of one of them. Looks good to me!
Thin cover. Stick on film. $29.99

One of the best mods ever done to my Shift. Has kept it protected and looks great. Plus it doesn't make the phone bulkier, like the snap on cases do.

So you don't dig the dark wooden skin but you like the future skin huh? how much is this one in comparison to skinomi techskin version?
sent from my cm7speedy /or/ miuispeedy
Picked this up today at my local Chapters store for $20. I just needed something for when travelling and don't have time to wait for an eBay or Amazon order to cross the border before my next trip.
It's not bad, fits in easily enough (thanks HUGE N7 bezel, you actually came in handy!). It also has a nice feel (different than most PU), and all the ports/buttons are usable while in the cover (though watch the top right strap, it can hit the power button).
Flap folds flat on the back if you want to use it in the case, and the N7 goes in and out of it quickly which is cool with me as this is just to protect it while in a bag, when actually using the N7 it'll come out of the case.
This is the NY Times model that comes in several different styles (I picked the most bland), and there are even nicer ones available if you want to drop more coin but at that point you're better off getting something actually made for the N7.

Nice pick up!
I saw something similar on Amazon from Marware for the Kindle. Also priced at $20.
See this case would be perfect for my wife if they didn't use elastic bands to hold it in, why is it so hard to find something like this that is just a little more industrial (has clips rather than bands)....ugh, the search continues, however this is pretty cheap and my wife might be willing to go with it, would be nice if it was a little smaller to fit the n7, just that much better, but beggars can't be choosers right?
I was tired of waiting for a dock from Google so started looking for a stand that would allow me to plug my pogo charger in the bottom.
I found this Griffin "A-Frame" stand for ipads at a local dollar store for only $3.... I got a few for various places in my home... just need to get a few more pogos.

Does the bottom come up far enough to possibly block the official flap from opening/fully closing?

I don't have a flap to test.... can you explain a bit better... how would it get blocked?

With the stand I have, when the case is completely closed, it can't open:
And when trying to close the flap while on the stand, it won't close fully (sits on the stand itself):
my version
There is a lot of room where it sits on the stand.... maybe 1/2 an inch so a lot of room. I don't see me wanting to open / close a case or cover while it is in a stand.

Any chance you could get a close-up picture of the bottom of the stand where the tablet comes in-contact with the stand?

I didnt want to say the brand of skin in title, cause i feel like im advertising the company or something.
Ill attach a screenshot of the image I was going to use, it shows the company im thinking of using, i know nothing about it, they could be utter trash skins.
Anyone used this before? how was the outcome?
thanks.

hmm, im actually going to crop that pic more, looks like a freakin ad dude. honestly how do you even talk about stuff on here without sounding like a shill
ok there, i covered half the company name, and this thread was asking people if theyve used it before, so if they have that should be enough.
I've used this company's product before and it's a good product for what it is. With that said, I took mine off after a few days because I couldn't stand the slight feeling of stickness around the edges. I don't think that's really preventable, so it's not a knock on quality, it's just a nature of having a wrap. I also noticed pocket lint and the occasional hair getting stuck in the glue at the edges. For me it just seemed janky so I went back to a normal case.

cool, thanks. and yea, im not getting this for protection - seeing as it provides absolutely none. But, maybe there is a way to buff the edges after application to dull the glueiness, who knows. either way i will see how it is.
