I've just come across this article on AndroidAuthority, looks like it could be decent!

I've searched about a bit and found no info on whether or not the Pogo charger will work with specific cases. Specifically for me, I just received a Poetic Revolution case and took note of the relatively small opening around the Pogo port. If anyone has both a Revolution case and a Pogo charger, would you mind telling us whether these accessories work together nicely? Also, information about the compatibility of other cases with the Pogo charger may be helpful to others looking to buy one thing or another.
POGO cable + Poetic hardback is a winner for me! The cut out for the connector is perfect.

I have the moko keyboard case, and am using it now. I have not received my Pogo charger yet. The cutout for the connector is only in the material that holds the tablet inside the case. There is no cutout for the Pogo cable in the backbone or spine of the case. The case is minimal in size. While I do not believe that making a cutout would be hard, I believe the Pogo connector will get in the way of how the tablet is propped up.

Poetic slimbook case works perfectly! I have it.
Anyone know of a case that you do not need to remove in order to dock the N7?
Thanks.

One like this, or any similar design should work:

Unfortunately, I don't have the dock so I can't verify, but the official Xoom case I had and its dock. It did a similar thing where one side of the tablet case snaps off leaving that side clear to dock. I do have the case and it looks like it should work. The case is pretty nice.
I have Poetic branded version of the above case and the bottom half unclips allowing the N7 to sit in the dock.
Yep. I have the Moko case through Amazon which allows the side the the pogo connector side of the device to unclip from the case also.
Is anyone aware of a case like the Seido Active (Basically something to protect the nexus from my kids) that works with the dock?

I don't see how it could. The pins on thye Dock have to actually touch the dots on the N7. Even cases that have the cut out for the connector don't work. The 3 mentioned above work perfectly cause the N7 is free and clear of the case at that spot. It just drapes over the back of the dock like a skirt (or kilt if don't want your N7 refered to femininely)
So I've tried a couple of protective cases out there (both otterbox cases) and I can't seem to find a case that will work with a MHL adapter that provides any real protection. I am using one of those cheap aluminum ebay cases right now but last time I dropped it with it on it my screen broke so I'm looking for one with more protection. What are you guys using that works with your Samsung MHL adapters (epl 3fhu)?
I use the defender and cut plastic off the MHL plug so that it fits with the case on
You can cut the plastic off the MHL plug?! Can you show me a pic please?

I think he means to shave off a little bit of the plastic part of the mhl cable that is preventing the mhl plug from going in. You can use an exaxto or hobby knife.
I had this problem with my galaxy note 1 and since that mhl adapter doesn't work with the gn2, I bought this mhl cable and it works with my bulky case.

There are others on ebay. just make sure that it is gs3 or gn2 compatible.

I am using this one http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Adapter-Hdmi-3Fhu-Galaxy/dp/B0080CXSOU/ref=cm_cd_ql_qh_dp_t it doesn't seem to have as much plastic but ill try to shave a bit off and see it it will fit
Works great thanks a lot guys, should have tried this sooner.
I bought this set for the tpu case but it came with lots of extras
Otg cable, 3.5 mm to 3.5mm, 3.5mm splitter, ear buds with answer call button, USB cable, retractable USB cable, 2100ma wall wort, car adaptor, hard rubber tpu, fake leather book case, screen protector, necklace felt storage bag, a stylus.
The book case is well made but I did not like the fit the buttons at the bottom had a cutout the rest of the bezel was covered in the fake leather.
The tpu case I liked a lot more it fit well just grippy enough still had to make 2 holes in it for the ir blaster and the 2nd microphone.
Otg not supported on the tab 3 I used my s3 to test the cable and it worked. I have a zagg protector on my tab ATM when it gets worn out I'll try out the one that came with this kit I feel like the kit is on the cheap side definitely not worth the 99.99 amazon says it retails for but for all you get it is worth getting at what i paid. I paid 32.99 with free shipping at amazon it was on sale when the tab 3 first came out for 26 i really wish i had jumped on it then.
A note about what i received they say they will give a fish bone wire keeper for the headphones but what i received was the otg cable. Looking at the entry for it on amazon the 10.1 comes with a otg cable so i doubt anyone will get the fish bone wire keeper.

I have a thin Spigen case on my Nexus and was wondering if any of you would know if a portable Qi charger would work if I put it in my pocket with my phone? Do any of you have any recommendations for batteries?
qi stone+. if you look in the accessory sub forum you will find many posts on this.
i use the qi stone in a front pocket on a phone case. i slip the phone in the case and the outer pouch has the stone in it and it charges as if it wa a charging sleeve. works well when i need it to.
but the qi stone+ is good on its own. you can power it and it has a usb port to power other gear.
