Another free case.... - Nexus 7 Accessories

Bought the original Blurex one for $6, which turned out to be pretty crappy but then they made up for it by shipping me the updated model for free. (Which is a lot nicer!)
Then I had also placed an order for the Poetic case below:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008IEGS9W/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
And before I've even received it, I got this e-mail this morning:
Dear Valuable Customers,
Thank you for purchasing Poetic HardBack Protective Case for the Google Nexus 7 Android Tablet by Asus. We have found there is slight problem on the case. The magnet inside the case is too strong to make case sleep while fold back the cover and hold like a book. Sorry about nothing seeing this problem while designing this product. Please keep the original one as backup, you don’t need to ship back to us. We are managed to provide a free replacement update version case that correct this problem as Poetic stand behind of their products within 2-3 business days. We are shipping updated fixed version out within 2-3 business days. You will definitely receive the update fixed version by the end of next week (August 3th). Please give us a chance and wait until update version products before give out product comment on this product.
Best Regards to all that support Poetic, we will continue provide more innovative products for Google Nexus 7 device before anyone else.
Regards,
Customer Service
:laugh:

Damn Lucky, haha. You should try buying a lottery ticket

Yeah, four cases for $15.95 is pretty good.
I already gave one away though. (The 1st Blurex.)

Funny, I got the same message for the MoKo slim-fit case....
Dear buyer:
Thanks for purchasing MoKo slim-fit case for your Nexus 7. We are
sorry to inform you that we have found some issue with the built-in
magnets in cases that are scheduled to ship today. The magnet is
installed to support the smart wake/sleep feature of Nexus 7 but
unfortunately it would also put the Nexus to sleep when the front
cover is folded against the back, due to the slim profile of this
particular case. We are sure you would not like to purchase a case
like this and this is not a case we would sell either. But we have
decided to ship this current case to you to provide a TEMPORARY
solution to protect your Nexus before you get the the improved
replacement from us. We have taken measures to rectify the issue in
our future production and the replacement cases should be ready
sometime next week. The fully working replacement case will be shipped
to you at no extra cost and you don't have to return the temporary
case. You may want to remove
And please let us know if you would like us to make other
arrangements for you. We can also provide any of our Nexus 7 cases as
a free substitute if you prefer. All other nexus 7 cases we carry come
with the smart wake/sleep function but don't have the same issue as
the "temporary case" has. You can check the selection here:

A lot of these cases come from the same factories in China, and all that changes is the reseller's name on the case! (If it even has one. :laugh
Really can't complain too much though as they are sending out free cases. That's decent customer service. The case + shipping again must really not leave them much profit...

no i think they are still getting a good profit. the cases probably cost them $2 to make? they are selling them for $14, do the math

Not the ones I've bought.
First one was six bucks and they've shipped me two cases.
The second was ten bucks shipped and they've shipped me two cases.

If you guys want to send one of the old ones my way I'll.... up your thanks meter. :good:

anyone know how to fix this? i got the same poetic case and received the defective one , and emailed me that their gonna send a replacement too, but im just wondering if we can fix the first one by hand..

Noreve Case - suggested supplier please

Based on reviews here I have decided to go for a Noreve leather flip case but availability seems to be an issue. Anyone know where it is best to source one in for delivery to UK? Have tried Mobile Fun but they have no idea of delivery at the moment.
Thanks
Noreve directly sell their case on line to every where despite the courier charge is quite high.
inkino have them in stock from Friday I think,
I got mine from them, give them a ring as they seem to know more on the phone than online..

Hi all,
I plan to buy this case too, only one more thing is not clear, is this case allowed to answer the phone without completely open front cover?

Roo multi-view case review

This is the Roo case with the kick stand, bought from a seller on amazon. I just wanted to warn anyone who is thinking about getting this case. My experience with both the seller and the case is horrible.
First, the seller does not reply unless you threaten them with a file claim and negative reviews. My first email went completely ignored. My case was past due and the tracking number was invalid, i'm guessing they forgot or ran out. Anyways then they replied to my second email with its lost somewhere but that they will upgrade to priority mail when they receive it.
Then i finally got the case. First i gotta say the viewing angles are great. Unfortunately the case is loose and the top is not covered when the case is open. At first i didn't think this was a problem until i accidentally picked it up by the wrong end this morning. The result: my nc fell, while i was in the kitchen, on the tile floor. There are now scratches on both top connor of my nc. The good news is that the nook is pretty sturdy, everything still works at least.
Anyways i just wanted to post my review here first. I will most likely review on amazon too.

I have this as well, and entirely the other experience. I dislike the non closed top, but havent had it fall out, ever. it is easy enough to fix too.
Hmmm I'm considering this case. Thanks for the review.
I am surprised at the review here. I had no problems contacting the seller about not gettng my case. Not only did our correspondence start with email, with an immdiate response with no threats, and when I followed up via phone I reached a human immdiately. It seems like Amazon was accepting orders beyond the sellers supply. Unfortunately the sellers system was set to assign shipping info automatically thus I got a shippng confirmation when my item wasn't shipped.
I love my RooCase! I LOVE the many multiple angles and I think it fits snuggly in the case. Despite the lack of cover at the top when opened my very clutzy self and my almost two year old son have yet to get it out the case despite our many accidents! I have easy access to all buttons on the sides; power and volume. I like how I can either readit propped on a table or while lying down on my back in bed.
I find the magnet quite strong. When I don’t want to use the multi angled stand it turns into a not so bulky case for simple hand holding or laying down on my lap or table.
I take my NC everywhere! This case holds up to the rough daily wear I give it.
I will admit sound is slightly muted with no cut out in the back. This was tested with B&N read to me book Go, Dog Go. I was dissappointed it required manual page turns versus automatic when it gets to the end of the page. Since I didn't buy the NC for its sound quality properties I am not really considering this an issue with the NC or the RooCase.
In conclusion, I highly recommend this case!

I was thinking about getting that case but since reading your review I think I might pass and continue my search.
Just to second this I also had a terrible experience with the seller and filed a complaint with Amazon. They claimed the package shipped on one date, charged my credit card and did not actually ship it for several weeks. They never replied to my email. If you look at the seller feedback the main complaints are about them failing to ship. The case itself is ok (nothing special and makes the nook color a lot bulkier) but the seller does not appear to be trust worthy.
Yes that was my main complaint with the seller. They send out an email that the item was shipped, with an invalid tracking number, and then lied that it was "lost somewhere" when you contact them to ask where your item was. They should have just truthfully told that the item was out of stock and ask you to wait.
I've read differing reviews on the fit of this case. Personal experience says the case is too loose but other reviews has stated that it was fine. If it helps any, I ordered the grey case.
I bought this case and had a simlar experience. I purchased the case on Jan 20 with an estimated delivery date of Jan 27-Feb 1. The item didn't "ship" until Jan. 28. I checked it using the tracking number on Feb 5th and it had made it all the way to the Anaheim, CA post office (the company is located in Chino, CA) travelling an impressive 25 miles in that time. It was on this day that I wrote my letter to the seller. I still have yet to receive a response from the company, but I finally did recently receive the case. The case itself is actually pretty cool. I find it solidly built, and convenient. I noticed, as was previously noted, that when open there is nothing to block the nook from sliding out if the case is held upside down, so I will probably get some sort of leather strip and velcro to keep it in. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
In summation case = good, seller = really bad.

I have a similar case with open top. Here's how I secured mine, required punching 3 holes, bit of stretchy cord + thin charm.
Sorry about links, it won't let me post external links until I have 8 posts, ugh.

The charm is used like a button which fits through the hole punched in back cover.
I have the roocase as well and my experience is similar. I got shipping info immediately that was invalid and i had to contact the seller. They gave me the free upgraded shipping and i had my case a few days later.
I really like the case. Fits snugly and feels great. I highly recommend it if you can stand the wait for shipping.

Glad I saw this, I was thinking of buying one of these cases.
They seem to be doing Fulfillment by Amazon now, maybe that will help their shipping woes.

Indeed- I took a gamble and ordered this case on Sunday, February 20th. With my Amazon Prime shipping benefits, it arrived today- Tuesday, February 22nd.
Whew!
Wow. Wish I would have read this and or waited til Amazon took over the shipping duties. I ordered mine on the 14th and it is still preparing to ship. I sent an email to the seller today. I have Amazon Prime as well. Yay me.
interesting.
Got same case, only thing i dislike about it is the fact that the speaker is blocked. Nothing a lil boxcutter knife wont fix but still, could have been better.
My experience has been good. Ordered the case, got it about 5 days later.
Overall, I like the case. Yeah, I think they should have closed the top so the device can't fall out, but it's not that big of a deal.
The case is super useful. Love that you can set it up at any angle on a table and read. Leather is nice too. Recommended.
I was looking into getting this case. Right now I have the smoke grey case from B&N.
Does this have slots to store items, like SD cards and such? And can they potential fall out when the stand is being used?
Hi Guys,
Thinking of getting this case as well .... but found that the stand is for portrait. True?
How do you have your NC on the landscape format and standing and tilted - I mean if you are watching videos, it would be in landscape, right?
Is there any other alternatives? So far, the folio types open side way (not flip) but user feedback that the straps at the top is covering the power and volume button.

My Nexus 7 Accessories Order :)

I got this case-
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0083P0MI4/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
and this screen protector-
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008EO263I/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01
They'll both be here Monday, which is when my Nexus 7 (16 GB) will be delivered too. I have and have had products from both Moko and ArmorShield, and both are excellent quality.
I think I'm going to buy that case. For $6.99, it will hold me over until a better one comes around. I don't like it for permanent use.
I do want a screen protector too, but I only want the non-spray self-sticking (static cling?) ones. I bought one of those for my wife's iPad and it worked great. I bought a spray-and-stick one for my SGT8.9, and it sucked (Zag).

Well, MoKo makes good stuff, it should last a while, I think they are just doing the deep discount to get in on the Nexus 7 frenzy. I agree on the Zagg's, I don't like them either, but ArmorShield, Skinomi and BodyGuardz are all good ones, they all make dry apply and wet apply. I usually go for dry apply on phones, like my Galaxy Note i717, but on bigger things like tablets the wet apply ones are easier to install and work with, at least for me. The ArmorShield's are really thin, don't yellow and are not sticky like the Zagg's, which is one reason why I dislike Zaggs too.
Just ordered that case as well. Can't beat that price with prime shipping.
Thanks for the post.

I ordered the case a few days ago and already got it. It's actually quite nice and more indicative of its real price and not the $7 I paid for it.
I ordered a moko one that has the magnetic sleep/wake function. Sort of a gamble because there is only one pic, but it looks like it can function as a stand as well.

Right on! I have been pretty impressed with their stuff, Skinomi's are a little sticky, and Zagg's are ultra sticky of course. With the ArmorShields, the little imperfections will settle out over the next couple of days, and if for some reason it goes crazy, they will just send you another set out.

Update-Yep
Dear buyer:
Sorry for another intrusion but we just came across this report and
thought we have to share it with you:
http://www.tomshardware.com/news/White-Nexus-7-Case-Stain-Clean-Black-Nexus-7,16302.html
With the same porous plastic material, we are concerned that the black
back on the retail version could also be susceptible to dye to some
extend. It may be embarrassing but we have to admit that we did not
have this issue in mind when our fist batch of Nexus cases was made.
Although the case has NOT left any mark on neither of the white or
black Nexus 7 we have after a short period of normal use, we would
rather be overcautious and have more intensive tests done before we
can comfortably let you use the case, even as a temporary solution. We
definitely could not afford to have you as beta-testers on this issue
with your brand new tablets and would suggest you hold off using the
case until you get further confirmation from us or a replacement case,
hopefully within 5-7 days.You can be assured all our future shipments
will be fully compatible with Auto wake/sleep feature and free of any
staining problems guaranteed. You will get to choose any style you
prefer from our whole selection of Nexus cases as the free
replacement.
I understand most of you will get your Nexus 7 today and I am really
sorry to disappoint you with this message but please do excise caution
if you have to use something else on your Nexus. Again, I apologize
for the inconvenience and would appreciate your understanding and
patience in this process of getting the right protection for your
Neuxs. This is what we do and we will do it right for you.
Please also let us know if you have any comments or suggestions.Thanks, Jim
WOW, I don't think I've had such good customer service, at least not that I can remember! Most companies would be like "Oh, sorry about that case we sent you last month, it probably left marks allover your device,sorry, but we can't do anything".

I know, I'm shocked too. Question: you just ordered the one case in your OP, right?
I ask because I ordered TWO cases from this seller. The one you did, plus the $12.99 smart case they came out with on Sunday. I wanted to make sure that this email was about the first case, not the second one (or both).
I am really shocked that they would have gone so far to help their customers for something that cost $6.99 shipped. I was actually going to return that case, since I got the better one, but I think I'm going to keep it just out of support of the seller.

Chinese version of Asus travel case cover - works as a multi-angle stand

I just found what I was looking for - TPU Case cover very similar to Asus official travel case cover, also works as a multi-angle stand. Bad news is that I found on Alibaba.com, where minimum order is 500 pieces and I didnt find it anywhere else. Also, it doesnt work as a smart cover with magnetic sleep/wake function.
http://grashine.en.alibaba.com/prod...high_quality_TPU_Case_for_google_Nexus_7.html
I'm in for one, 4999 to go
Too bad they don't offer a sample. Occasionally I've managed to get items that way on alibaba but it depends on the company.

There is so many cases where minimum order is only 1 peace, that gathering 500 people is a waste of time. Plus then you're going to receive 500 cases in you mailbox, and then you're going to ship all 499 of them to people? In the end the costs of shipping will be the same as if you bought original asus nexus case.
No offense, but it's a waste of time.
If you like the official case so much, just get it, it's not way too expensive, if you include the hassle you get with ordering 500 chinese ones. And the cover on the chinese one looks like it'll fall off any time now.

Hi, all that talks about getting hundreds of people was a joke:laugh:, actually, we were talking about how difficult could be doing a such a simple thing like buying a new device case on net. But thanx, anyway, I allready have a official Asus grey case and I really like it, but it couldnt be used as a stand cover, especially as a multi-angle stand. So, thats why I was looking this particular case. Cheers!
Edit:agree with you, seriously doubt about quality.

Seidio listing "Google Nexus 6" in requests area on site. Cases/Accessories to come?

Seidio listing "Google Nexus 6" in requests area on site. Cases/Accessories to come?
Awhile back during my investigation on the Next Nexus phone I went searching through Accessory/Case makers hoping that they would give me any information/potentially leak information on the Nexus 6.
Ultimately I found Seidio referencing the Google Nexus 6 in their requests page http://www.seidioonline.com/Articles.asp?ID=303
Hopefully they will be releasing cases soon for the N6, what would you guys like to see? Personally I am hoping for one of their durable cases since the one I had for my N4 protected it for the entire time I had the device. Hopefully we will not have to wait long for cases to come out!
seidio drives me crazy. iphone 6 comes out and they have every case under the sun ready to ship the day the damn thing is ANNOUNCED. google releases nexus info (including specs) and you get crickets from them. here, fill out this request form and wait
Moto x 2014 is listed in request area too, but they've confirmed on Facebook to me that there is no current plan to support.
I hate apple, but they are king of accessories. Guaranteed millions of sheep will buy their phones.
UPDATE
I was able to contact Seidio awhile ago on the matter and today they responded! https://plus.google.com/+LouKohn/posts/bR1i8TmdFQy
From post reply:
"While we don't have any finalized plans for accessories for the Nexus 6 yet, I will be sure to forward the interest in these products on to our product development team."
Hopefully it means we will be seeing something come down the pipe in the near future for the N6!
So just like the note 3, cases will come out 3 months later.
i find it fascinating that i have to tell a company to make cases for a phone that nobody is able to keep in stock. sold out on 2 different days via google in 0.5 seconds and today sold out on motorola's site in less than 5 minutes. and all this at $650-$700. if they need me to request that they make cases for it then they are incredibly stupid and don't deserve my business...

Being sold out because you sold 5 million in a couple days is different than being sold out because Google doesn't know how to do retail launches. I would imagine it is quite difficult to gauge how much interest there will be in this phone after the initial sales.
perhaps, but it doesnt change the fact that this is a flagship release and their lack of support is dubious. take a look at their site. they offer cases for just about every phone in the universe on there. but nexus 6 which is launching on all 4 carriers they have to wait and see? beyond lame

I like how you mixed fact with personal opinion.

Yea they already missed the window to get buyers...all the pre-orders are shipping soon and they don't even have products ready yet.
There goes 1000s of sales. Poof. I'm one of them. Got a Moko holster/case for $2USD and not buying a Seidio for this device.

I got the $1.95 Moko, and the case seems solid! But I hate the Moko holster with a passion. If Seidio did come out with N6 cases, I'd buy one just to use the spring-loaded holster.

Totally agree I love the spring loaded holsters. Any chance of best buy putting out that platinum brand that has them or are they seidio?

I didnt even know Best Buy sold decent holsters lol You have to let ME know if they get them!
I have only been particular to otterbox and seidio. Hopefully Seidio comes out soon (since otterbox hates nexus for some reason)

I will if I see one.
Seidio did the same thing at the Nexus 5 launch.
I'll still buy a surface case when it's released. I always do

I have used the Platinum brand case from Best Buy a few times on some of my older phones(it's been a couple of years). Those were just re-branded Seidio Surface cases. That's not a bad thing though. The case and holster were much cheaper at Best Buy than on Seidio's website. So, unless it's different now, you won't see a Nexus 6 Platinum case without seeing a Nexus 6 Seidio case first.

Good to know, thanks! I like the Seidio line of cases.
