ACase - Leather Case Folio with multi view Stand & Wake/Sleep Function - Nexus 7 Accessories

I had an Acase for my xoom and it was almost identical. I loved this case. Just sold my xoom yesterday and my nexus 7 will be here tommorrow. That put me in search for another case. I'll be getting this one. I can vouch that this case for my xoom was top notch. Greaty quality.
It looks as if this also has the "smart case" functionality. It's cheaper from amazon but you have to pay shipping. It's free shipping from acase.

If you have never signed up for amazon prime, you can get the prime 30 day trial and get free shipping making this case 12.95 with free shipping. Been wanting to try Amazon prime anyway and check out there streaming video library in comparison to netflix. Just put my order in.

I can also vouch for Acase in general, I had a case similar to the N7 one for my touchpad, probably one of the best cases I've ever had. Very nice quality and feel.

looks like my Moko slim case

Well just looked at the moko slim case again. It's pretty much identical.
some people may like the moko case better - here's a link to it on amazon.

Chances are they all come out of the same factory in China, the advantage to buying a named brand would be not getting one of the early types with the magnet that was too strong.

Why no mention of this case?

So I noticed there's been a lot of talk regarding the Blurex Magyc Folio case (amzn.c0m/B008D2Q8RG) but I am amazed no one has picked up on Blurex's other case for the Nexus 7, the Ultraslim model (amzn.c0m/B008D2POAS).
Based on the pictures, the case looks MUCH slimmer than most of the other cases here. It also doesn't cover the bezel, much like the Moko and Poetic. Furthermore, it has the on/off magnetic sleep feature. And guess what? The case is only $5!!
Seriously, am I missing something? Why has there been little to no talk of this case? And since it is sold by Prestige Milano, the official Blurex reseller, the possibly of it being fake is out of the question...This seems like the real deal.
That's because my Nexus 7 hasn't arrive for me to use this case. I got this. It's so cool looking. I have the Blurex Magyc Folio Case. And I'm mad you found this for $5. I spent $10. And yes I'm complaining about not being able to save $5. LoL!!
Glad to hear I'm not the only one! So could I ask, did you also buy yours from Prestige Milano and can you post any pics by any chance
Blurex has a really nice customer support and they ship to Canada for 6 bucks!

Anyone else bought/received this item? And still no answer as to why this case has been ignored (which is evident by the lack of responses in this thread). Am I missing something? Is there a catch to this case?
First of all, you use the same link twice for the Amazon item (the incorrect one for the case you're talking about). Maybe correct that so folks know what you're talking about. Secondly, that case is talked about plenty, though from different value added resellers. With that said, $5 + $2.60 shipping each is pretty darn good when compared against the wholesale price direct from China.

Thanks for pointing that out! I've edited my first post to include the correct link.
This is pretty much the same case I have for my Fire. It's a great case for the money. However, when I search for B008D2POAS, I see the case for $5. When I click on it the price goes to $9.99. LOL - I did that twice to verify, now I just did it again and it shows $9.99. Sometimes shopping at Amazon is like day trading
Anyway, with the shipping it puts the case into the same range as the other Bluerex case and some others.
I ordered this one which is pretty much the same exact case when it was $5 last week:

Do you mean mention like in this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1751662
Both Blurex, all three threads I mean, mention the folio and the one you linked is the "newer" version. I was sent an email from Alex telling me they had an issue with the 600 in stock units. The wake magnet is too strong and would sleep the unit if you folded the "stand" back a lot..
The one you mention was the exact one I asked Blurex about in particular, he had to set it to no stock, until they fixed them. They were $5.00 originally (last week) - Guessing they fixed them, and raised the price to about double for the fix..
It's very similar to these;

Wow, that's weird...seems like it was as an error in the first place. $5 is too good to be true. So is your Kindle case also Blurex, can you comment on the quality of the case?

Yh, I noticed this case too, however, I was put off by the fact that it is only available for preorder. Do you know when it's to be released and also whether it holds any particular advantage over the Blurex case? Based on the pic, they both look the case...
I have one like this coming in today and will give it a shot with my N7. Have a different case on order as well, but it won't ship until Aug 20th so I need something temporary until then.

There really isn't much special about that case IMO, looks like most of the others. I ordered the Moko, which doesn't cover the bezel and it has landscap and portrait modes with the Sleep/Wake function.

Just picked up the Blurex Ultraslim model. You're right in that it looks much slimmer than the Blurex Magyc Folio. Also, I like that the Ultraslim model doesn't cover the bezel which I think looks really tacky.
Not impressed. While it is slimmer than the case that fellow employee got, this does not include the magic magnet, and it covers the bezel edges making it more difficult to use.
Note that it never said it included the magnet, and I never assumed it would, but since the case makes reaching the buttons including power button harder, the lack of such a feature makes using it much harder. Also, it is hard to use the unit near the edges of the screen because the case is in the way.
My wife has informed me she is getting a Nexus 7 now (guess who is buying it), she can use this when she gets it. In the meantime, I will stick with the sleeve that I've been using.

KHOMO Leather Flip Case Cover Stand with Hand Strap

I bought it for 6.99$ with free two day prime shipping, off of amazon here
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008Y1DHJ8/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
and here is a different model for only 3.99$ USD.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00904VI9O/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
It looks just like the poetic, what do you guys think? Anybody else get this case yet?
The Leather Flip Case is identitical to the Blurex ultraslim case and Moko, Iblason and Yomee all have it as well. It is well reviewed. I am going to pull the trigger on it due to the price

Yeah, same here, I bought both actually, just because I couldnt pass up getting two nice cases for 11$ with two day shipping, amazon prime trial is easy to get

Yeah, I have prime as well. Originally I was only going to do the free trail but i decided to shell out the $$ for it, its a good service. I like Amazon's ecosystem, I just dont want to be locked into it lol.
I almost bought this. I however the material seems very cheap compared to blurex. But almost twice the price.

Its highly likely that this same case from Blurex, Moko, IBlason, Yomee, Khomo have all come from the same chinese vendor.
None of these companies makes the cases themselves. They buy from China and then resell, its a pretty solid business deal. Almost anyone can start a company in the US peddling Chinese goods, just go to http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/612200809/for_google_nexus_7_case.html

Just got my case in. Im very satisfied with it, the fake leather and microfiber don't feel cheap at all, it feels nice and doesnt add any bulk to the case. I recommend it, great value for the price.
I like this $7.00 case a lot more than I did my $50 Portenzo case.
Seriously guys, the 3.99$ case, is awesome too, doesn't even remotely feel cheap, these better be sold out by the time I look at them tomorrow, BUY THEM!

imak Cases

Hey guys I recently stumbled onto a new brand of cases. The brand is called imak and the cases they look pretty nice. They currently have 3 types of cases for the nexus 7.
The first one is called the imak slim. You can eBay search it as there are multiple posts of this case. Its like the incipio feather but much cheaper. It looks pretty high quality not like other eBay cases.
Price - $13.20
The third one is the imak cowboy. Its basically the same as the imak slim but with a more rugged texture. Same as a above just type in imak cowboy to find the case on eBay.
Price - $14.30
The third one is my favorite but a little more expensive. Its called the imak luxury. It is really good looking and is made from genuine leather. It looks awesome. The problem is that there is only one posting and it is shipped using economy shipping. Which could take up to 4 weeks to come. I'm going to be ordering one of these. The quality of the case is amazing. BTW there are only 9 left so get em while you can .
Price - $22.99
Ohh and did I mention you get a free screen protector with each case.
All these cases are on eBay.
I don't know man it does not look like good quality. The texture itself is not smooth and looks very tacky. I am not sure if I would be comfortable with a brand that says iMak on my Nexus...lol. It is cheap though compared to the other high end quality cases like the Noreve. That case cost me around $70 which is ridiculous price but you get what you pay for. The biggest thing I would be worried about is that this thing is coming from china. You might as well get the Speck nexus case for $35 which is really nice and genuine. Good Luck
I'm going to go ahead an order one of the slim cases. I will report back once I receive it.

Please report back with a review or some pics of the slim case. Im also thinking about it.
I'm going to get a blue slim case and a grey cowboy case. You can get them much cheaper at this site. Will post a review of both of them once I get them.
http://www.obostore.com/index.php?m...ription=0&categories_id=&keyword=imak+nexus+7
I used imak cowboy for my S3. The quality seems quite good and I like it because it's so slim and provide good grip for S3. Will try to look for nexus 7 cover.
I think you can buy better looking better protection for the same or less money, those slim cases you link to are basically book type covers without any edge protection

envelope case for nexus 10

just got my nexus 10 and wondering where to put it.
and i got a spare evouni envelope case for mba 11".
which also fits well with my nexus 10, though a liitle bit loose.

Interesting. The Amazon listing says leather in the title, but refers to ballistic nylon and 3do in the description. If it's really the original leather and 3do case for $5 that's great. Anyone know? Also... How do the dimensions line up with the N10?
EDIT: see post #7 in this thread -- I got the case and was extremely disappointed. Not worth $5.
I do t have this one... But I do have one of their cases for my iPhone 3gs and it is pretty indestructible.

Yes -- I remember seeing the demo videos for Tech21 and d30. Very impressive stuff. This appears to be a great price. From what I can see, it looks like the long dimension would be about 1/2" longer than the Nexus 10, and the narrow dimension about 1" greater than the narrow dimension of the Nexus 10. The case is definitely a bit oversized. However if it's leather, with two layers of d30, it would be a pretty fantastic case / sleeve for $5...
Edit: I searched some more, and it appears that the same d3o case is being sold on different sites anywhere from $5 to $45. For $5 including shipping, I figured it's worth a risk. If it's leather with d3o that will be a fantastic deal. If it's ballistic nylon with d3o then it's still a good deal. Already shipped. I should have it next week. Really curious!

Ugh... Just received it. Very disappointing. I really like Tech21 cases and D3O, but this case seems like a poor imitation. There's orange fabric inside, but it's loose and wrinkled, and it seems that there's no D3O under the fabric. Bad production run? Fake? Defective D3O that dried up? No idea, but I recommend against getting this. Also: despite the measurements, the Nexus 10 does NOT fit in this case.
Total waste.

Oh well, I guess no need to look forward to receiving the package I ordered one Friday. Thought it would be a nice sleeve since I plan on keeping it naked in the house, guess I'll get one from SFbag.
What about some of the cases on etsy.com? Handmade and seems fairly well made.

Yes - quite a variety on Etsy and some of them look very nice. Comparing with SFBags and Waterfield Designs -- if I were opting for a high quality sleeve, I'd lean toward the Waterfield Designs products from SFBags for a couple of reasons:
- The sleeves are explicitly made and sized precisely for the Nexus 10. Most of the sleeves on Etsy state that they are for "Nexus 10 or iPad", which leads me to believe that they're either wrong, or the sleeves are only an approximate fit. The Waterfield sleeves are designed specifically to be just snug enough so the tablet doesn't fall out, but not so tight that the N10 is difficult to remove -- they illustrate this well in the videos on the website.
- The Waterfield sleeves include dense padding, along with a rigid screen protector under the padding and fabric. It doesn't come in contact with your Nexus 10, but it helps protect the screen from shock when it's in the case. Seems like better protection to me.
After that, it comes down to personal preference, design, materials and price.

I received mine today and I got a folio case for a Galaxy tab 10.1 from tmobile lol.. The funny thing is I wish it was for the Nexus as its a very nice case. Its not worth the hassle of contacting Amazon about it but I'm guessing the seller is counting on people thinking that way.

The more closely I looked at what I received, the clearer it was that the vendor misrepresented what he was selling. I was annoyed enough to write a review, post some pictures at Amazon, and also file a complaint. Interestingly enough, the seller contacted me within 48 hours and put in for a full refund (all of $5), which Amazon confirmed the next day.
Here's a link to the review I posted on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Prot...dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1
In contrast, I also purchased the Moko Slim Fit multi-angle case -- NOT the "PU Leather" version for $6, but I found they sell a true/genuine leather version for $21 -- with zero cost for 2 day shipping if you have Prime (I love Prime!). Anyway - the Moko genuine leather case is excellent. Fits perfectly, doesn't obstruct anything, very nicely finished and looks great. Ieave it on day and night -- and love it.Here's a link to the product:

Portenzo Cases for the N10

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?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
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.

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.

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/

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...
