Cheap case feels nice and auto wakes. - Nexus 7 Accessories

Bought this for 11 bucks including shipping.
Fits nice and snug. Not the highest end thing but it works. Ports line up well.

I got the Moco case, which looks a lot like that one. I like it, nice, auto wakes, and was under 10 bucks.

Does it have a magnetic clasp to keep the flap closed?
Some that I've looked at just hang there.

May feel nice, but it looks horrible. I don't want my N7 to become a Toshiba Thrive.

Very constructive. Thank you for your opinion. Don't buy the case. I posted to show a budget case that works with the lock wake function.
For everyone else, it's not too thick and the magnet holds it closed and locks the screen. There's a flap that holds the N7 in the slot by wrapping around the left side and folding under the tablet.

Official Nexus7 Case?

So Google has yet to release the Nexus 7 Case.. but its for sale at Sams Club?
I don't have a Sams Club membership, and I do not plan on support Walmart anymore than my wife already does...
Anyone know of a case, that is similar to the "Official" Nexus 7 case, but it available somewhere I do not need a membership?
I like the small/tight feature of that case. I can not stand a big bulky case that adds to the profile of the device.. I like how I can slip it in my back pocket, and every case I've found in the stores removes that ability.
As far as i know the travel case is for sale but the premium case is not yet released although pictures leaked

Seems dumb to me that they would wait so long to release the case. I'm holding out for an otterbox case.
The case listed on the Google Play store as "coming soon" is what you are referring to as a 'travel case' ... have not seen anything about a premium case.

You can order the travelcase at the asus website. I cant order from the play store so dont know about that. Premiumcase details are here:

I bought a proper Nexus case from Carphone Warehouse earlier today....it's kinda like a grey rubbery case with a flap that covers the screen...
Was looking at he case but decided against it on two things,1 there is no stand to prop up for watching films etc. 2 The cover flaps around so all kinds of crap can get on the screen if left in my bag.Shame as the rest of it and the way it holds the nexus is sweet

Was that the one made by Asus? Most Gamestops carry it, I looked at one today. Wasn't impressed with the feel, I'm sure that would slip out of my hands at some point.

looks like it. i've modded mine by cutting the useless flap off and keeping the back portion of it intact.
the flap if you join two ends up, actually then doubles up as a nice stand to lean the tablet against to watch films.

I also bought mine two days ago.
Only available in blue and pinks; None of the greys where in stock.
The grip is nice and if you flip the cover, the tablet stands in landscape easily and quite stable.

Will generic 10.1 cases work with nexus 10?
They might do, as it should be the same size width and length wise. The only thing would be the thinness
I doubt it, the Nexus looks more rounded an the edges. Like it's not rectangular, but a convex shape.

Would be awesome if it had a built-in kickstand like the Sir Face, that way I could just hook up a standard keyboard and mouse via micro-USB dongle (not a fan of those bluetooth keyboards/keyboard docks).
thans you...
I just ordered one of the generic leather case. Its made for the Galaxy note 10.1. I'll report back when or if i ever get my nexus 10. Might get the case first! The camera locations seems to be the same and the dimension are pretty similar.
I found this one, anyone ordered from this company before?

They have it at T-Mobile stores. Bought it and returned it a week later. The elastic strap that holds the front closed stretched out really quick and after that the front cover didn't align correctly causing it to look pretty crappy.

Looks like cheap material but really like the idea, this is what the smart case should have been (like in that MOD thread where they take the flip cover and add a TPU to it); esp like the stand feature
Stupid case, bad execution.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
terrible case - the cover is connected with a floppy piece of elastic fabric, the elastic band to hold the cover is stiff and overall it feels like it triples the thickness of the phone rather than doublet it... pass..
purchased this at t-mobile, returned it. The strap was the deal breaker for me.
Cant you just cut the strap off?

How easy/hard are the buttons to press? I have a $5 generic black smoke argyle ebay case on mine. Fits perfectly, buttons are easy to press, perfect grip, no lint collection, and has protected my phone from a handful of non-critical drops. So so far, so good.
I was thinking of trying the D3O case, but I was just worried about stiff button syndrome.
I work in construction as owner. Spend most of my time in unheated workshop and @ 30° I have no stiff buttons. It is molded soft buttons and works flawless. Notice it also has a backplate that is clear plastic that can be scratched but no big deal. Camera lenses is cut out. So much better in grip and also fits leather cases snuggly so it doesn't fall out as easy.

TPU is between hard plastic and silicone. It's perfect actually, it's not a hard case, nor is it soft and sticky the way silicone is.

Works great, feels great. Doesn't slip out of my hands and adds a little thickness. I also figure it doesn't attract to much attention which is good.
I have dropped my phone on cement once or twice as sometimes I get sloppy and it works great on protecting it. LOL!

Not there yet. I've been looking and emailed case mate they said just keep looking. looking thanks
my 2 cents
Hi all,
Just wanted to chime in on this case. The protection is great and the side grips make the feel more solid as opposed to slippery. The extended rubber on the face helps when it is facedown or when it potentially drops so it's not flush against the floor/table. My only beef is that the kickstand rubber part has come loose so i'm not sure how durable that part is, it's not that much of a hassle as I can still manage to prop it up but I'm afraid it will eventually break off.
Most complaints are about the difficulty of getting the kickstand out
P.S. all ports are accessible i.e. stylus, charger, headphones, camera, speaker
Raised power & volume up/down buttons
Whats the matter with case makers these days? Release the case with just 2 colors, one is black the other is white with pink. Its exactly like body glove diamond series... ffs have they ever thought men uses with white case too? Why pink?? Could just use red and that would plays with well with both genders...
Nice looking case but have always had the rubber part warp on every case I had. Evo 4g, evo 3d, and the skyrocket. I ended up using the speck case for my note 2. Even if anything happens to it I can exchange it for free at the att store.
