Ill give you a little review of what I think of it.
Quality is good as in any otterbox product ive come across. Fit and finish is top notch and fits on the device nice and snug. It comes with 2 parts and a screen protector.
I have not put the screen protector on yet since I have the one from tmobile. (which is **** btw) The only downside of the case I see is that it does not fit in the docking station. May have too do some surgery to get it too work.
I say get one its a great case and the back is hard plastic. I have not tested the durability yet and hope I dont have too.

Thanks for the review. I have been debating, but will probably end up getting the otter box.

I love my Otterbox for the Streak 7, but would love to find a nook type cover (closing/opening) like a book that fit the Streak WITH the otterbox on.
I love the Otterbox, really sucks that it doesn't fit in the dock with it.
Let me know if you cut anything on yours to make it fit.
I have been pleased with the Otterbox. I think the only complaint I have is that it took several tries to get the case on straight over the silicone. OCD. Had to get all the edges right. & it would be better with an sd card cutout. Debating about getting the dock, since I really haven't started consuming media with the S7 yet. So don't know how valuable a dock cutout would be (for me).

Not that I was expecting it to, but the Leather case at T-Mobile doesn't work WITH the Otterbox on the Streak. Furthermore the biggest problem the leather case, other than the shoddy quality is that it doesn't have a port for the charging cable.
I just got the commuter today and I really like it. It seems to protect the tablet pretty well.

Curious, what did you guys pay for the otterbox case? I could swear the commuter case was $39.99 but now its showing $49.99.

I ordered mine through dell for $49.95(have a dell preferred account) and I think you are right! a few days ago I checked otterbox's website and saw it for 39.. I figured dell just marked it up by 10 bucks, but it seems like otterbox rasied the price
Mine was $39 a couple of weeks ago when I bought it of the Otterbox site.

On the otterbox there is a rubber cut out on the top left corner. What's that cut out for?

I called OtterBox and told them that I had went to the otterbox site a few weeks ago and the price was 39.99 and I wanted to know if I could still get it at that price since it was now 49.99 and the rep spoke to a manager they both said that they were unaware of the price going up. They sold me the commuter case for 39.99 with free shipping!
Anyone have a dell streak otterbox defender case? Email me at [email protected]

So I saw the post about the Blurex coming out with a Nexus 7 case so I thought I would try it in my HTC Flyer case I had laying around.. The Nexus fit into the case perfectly and it holds it nicely, but I did not have access to the 2 buttons on the side.. I cut the side of the case with the only thing I could find handy (wire strippers) and hacked it up but I made it so I could use the buttons and have a nice functional case now. The case is only $19.99 on Amazon shipped because the Flyer is out of production and might not be worth it to some but will work fine because I had it laying around..
The cuts look awful but can be cleaned up and made to look almost perfect with 5 minutes of work..
Here is a link to the case.. I know if the Nexus 7 Blurex comes out soon and costs the same then this is a stupid option, but if the Nexus 7 Blurex case ends up being $29.99 or more than I think the $20 one is worth it..

Doesn't use the smart wake feature. There are too many better quality cases that use magnetic wake for a dollar more.
I bought a Boxwave case for my Kindle 2. If this is similar you will find that the construction is very cheap and not like the quality feel they had a few years ago. I think you might be disappointed, especially for the money.

Portenzo, a premium case manufacturer, just released their cases for the Nexus 10 today. I have the BookCase for my Nexus 7 and love it. I'll probably be ordering one for my 10 soon. http://shop.portenzo.com/nexus-10/
Oh ho.... So tempting. Just concerned about the lack of a Pogo opening... How hard is it to insert/remove? Would it hold its grip after being removed/inserted many times over?

Good News
Finally a quality case for the Nexus 10...I'm tired of the cheap stuff on Amazon..:victory:
Cases on Amazon are cheap but they work. How can anyone justify paying $110 for a case? I'd rather buy a Moko case for $6 and invest the remaining $104 on my next toy.

Agreed, I think that's ridiculous and they don't even look that great. That's just an opinion though
I've been waiting for either this or the never-will-be-released-by-google case that you see in the official videos. I can't justify spending over a hundred dollars, but I'll definitely be getting the standard book case.
I was reading that Google is looking to open some retail stores.... Given the fact that they release next to no accessories for their Nexus products, I'm trying to figure out how these stores won't be barren wastelands with just a few phones and tablets on display.
Looks nice but I can't even imagine how uncomfortable it is

I 100% agree with you. I use the Moko ultra slim (currently $5.99 on Amazon) and it's fantastic. To each his own I guess.
I am certainly considering getting the leather case for it.
I am more wondering if the next Nexus 10 will have similar dimensions that I can just reuse this case for.
What do you guys think the odds are that google will change the dimensions of their next 10.1 device or two?
This case has the gel inside the corners to hold the tablet in place, I would venture you could put something smaller in there and the gel would still allow for a relatively snug fit.
Good lord. More than a hundred for a case? I bought my used 32gb nexus 7 for 175. I got two Moko cases for 12 bucks.

That thing is an inch thick. Why? Might as well carry a leather binder and just throw the tablet in there. Then you at least have some business cards, a pen, etc.

The tablet sits in a wood base, that's probably why it is so thick.

I sooooo want one, but I configured it up past $180!
I purchased one yesterday. Decided to get the bookcase over the leather one.
The leather looked amazing, but I felt I would get more bang for my buck with the bookcase.
At first I thought the bookcase was made of the fake pleather that most other cases has, but really, its meant to be built just like a hardcover book which is pretty cool.
When I get it I will let you guys know what I think.
I look at it this way. Just to get an opening for the camera costs the same as my perfectly functional poetic slimline....
.....I'll pass
Just got mine today...VERY nice case...it is the quality I was looking for in a case. The Nexus fits snugly with no problems and all the buttons and ports are accessible. If you can get passed the price you won't be disappointed...

what about the pogo charger port? is the port usable on the portenzo case? need to know for this is the deal breaker for me.
how do you decipher a good deal from a knock off? the prices on these things vary so widely. anywhere from about $25 upto $80. i dont want to overpay but i dont want to end up with a knockoff either.
I bought mine from Walmart online for $30. They were $50 in the store. When it broke Otterbox verified the code stamped in the case and sent me a replacement.

ebay knockoff otterbox
I bought my otterbox defender from ebay as well.( ohcases )( 26 bucks and change)..However- it was genuine, and despite that- I broke the clip holster within 15 days- the ebay company gave me a hassle for exchange- ( return my damaged part, and then they would send out a replacement..and of course- shipping back at MY expense.
I contacted otterbox, sent pics via email-( of the genuine stamping included) and within 7 days - had an entire new package- all new case, clip etc. So the point here- ebay doesnt mean fake- but the deals are out there ...and so are vendors who dont know what customer service means.
[
im sure a cheap knockoff would do the same job protection wise(maybe), but if it breaks you have to buy another, it could end up costing you more than a genuine one. ive had my note 2 for a year now and only had the kickstand case that just covers the back. yesterday made me think i should have more protection. i had my phone in the passengers side door,and i forgot it was there and opened the door. the note 2 fell onto the concrete, glass side down, but somehow(thankfully) didnt break and i had a screen protector, so no scratches either

Otterbox Defender
Hello everyone,
I got my Otterbox Defender with 25 US$ from Ebay, delivered from Hong Kong to Romania in 3 weeks, free of charge, par avion.
It's genuine and perfect, blister and all. I did the mod shown here somewhere to allow for the 6400mAh battery from Mugen.
It's PERFECT and I am happy.
Cheers, Mihai.
thanks
