it will be good if you can do a search before starting a new thread, if you look in the accessories thread, all the info you need is available.
Check out the videos Ploone posts. They're very informative videos of various cases for the Nexus S.
I personally use the Case-Mate Pop at the moment. The review is found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4auzR3OVB8
To this very day, I don't regret paying $34.99 for this. There are some flaws with it though, some of the rubber falls off. But I peeled it off and now its fine. The highlights of this case is DEFINITELY without a doubt the easiness to press on the sidebuttons and the grip that the case provides.
I'll be getting a Ringke case this week for a review. Some user experiences of the Ringke case are: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1026779

The Ringke case slides in and out of my pockets just fine. Some users think the back is slippery, while others think otherwise. It doesn't have a sticky texture or anything like that, just a matte-like texture. SGP also has a similar case to the Ringke, although I like the details of the Ringke case much better. Someone else posted a review of the SGP case.

I've got a video on the Active X and the Ringke. I find the Ringke to be smooth with a slight texture to it for minimal grip.
The Active X is decent, offers good protection but doesn't look particularly great.
I suggest skinomi.
Take a look at the feather case from incipio. It is not an extreme protection kind of armour but it's stylish and it has a surprisingly good look and feel. It can also can take a couple of drops (done it!)

Leather Sleeve/Case

I am looking for a leather sleeve or pouch. It doesn't matter to me if it slides in from the top or side.
I have the leather Sena case for my Gnex, so that was the first place I looked. They do have one for the Nexus 7:
http://www.senacases.com/google/nexus-7/ultraslim/
What other options are out there?

I haven't looked into the specific dimensions yet but the medium sleeve from saddleback leather may be a good option if the fit is right.
www.saddlebackleather.com
Bought this about a week ago, hopefully it arrives sometime next week. It is faux leather though. From the feedback, people were satisfied with the build quality/protection. Price is hard to beat too.

I picked up a Blackberry Playbook leather "Envelope" fits great and one of the things you can say about Blackberry in general is that their OEM accessories are top notch in quality. Its very thin, not a ton of protection more it prevents things in your bag from scratching, battering the tablet. Anyway very professional looking if that's important to you, I really like it partly for that reason.

[Q] Nexus 7 Case

Hi guys. Well I just got my nexus 7 a few days ago. I've been looking through the forums but sadly all I see is leather cases. Can someone recommend a good non leather case for my nexus 7. Thanks !
Very few of them are actually leather. They are mostly "vegan leather" which I guess is the latest term for artificial leather (sigh, I'm old enough to remember Naugahide). But there are reviews on the Otterbox, Seidio, Treegloo and many other non-"leather " cases in this subforum. Did you even look through it?

I did look through some of them, really wasn't interested in the treegloo, but i guess i'll check out seidio.
I dont like using "Leather" to my case, since they tend to thread apart...
Use TPU material case, IMO they offer more protection, since its rubber and bouncy...

What kinda case do you want? A book style case, a screen cover, plastic cover and edges, something else or a sleeve? we know what you dont want - a leather case but what do you want? once you figure that out we can move on to finding what you want or something similar.
Right now i have a case logic sleeve until my treegloo, if it ever, gets here. there are other book style cases if thats what your into, Portenzo, reauthored, and recently dodcase came out with a similar case - with the wood frame.
I'm really digging my Poetic case:

Very low profile. Adds almost no bulk and the stand function works much better than I suspected.

Nexus 7 Case Advice

Hi guys,
since I got my Nexus 7 WiFi almost a month ago and still don't have a proper case, I finally decided to buy one, but I'm not sure yet which one to get, as there's quite a few different ones out there.
What I'm looking for:
- reliable sleep/wakeup functionality when opening/closing the case
- useable as a stand when in landscape mode
- should not cover up any connectors/plugs of the N7 WiFi
- material plastic or faux leather
- dark color, preferably black
- not too expensive
- should provide good protection from scratches, smaller falls etc.
Would really appreciate your advice on this one, especially if you made some good/bad experiences with (multiple) different cases.
A bonus would be if the case also was available in a european-based online shop, as I live in Germany, but its not a necessity.
Thanks in advance, looking forward to your suggestions
Tech21 make nice leather folio cases with d30 material inside, should be good for a fall;
http://shop.tech21.uk.com/store/Pro...02W_Google-Nexus-7-Leather-Case--Impact-Folio
No sleep function but it has a pocket on the lid where you could stick a magnet inside to create the sleep function, I've stickytaped one in and it works great.
Thanks for the suggestion, but that one is a bit out of my price range.
I also don't need neither real leather nor a super hi-tech drop/fall protection.
I'm looking for something for about 20-30 Euros, if possible.
Roocase
I have a roocase that is basically exactly what you described. But it's over $30 from what I found

Thanks, I looked it up on Amazon, but there seem to be lots of different versions of the roocase for the Nexus 7, many of them in my price range.
Which case do you have exactly, could you maybe hook me up with a link?
Like you I bought my Nexus7 around a month ago and spent a lot of time thinking about which case to get.
In the end I went with this one from Amazon and it really is as good as it looks in the pics.
Plus it's amazing value.

I'm not exactly sure, I received it as a gift and threw the packaging away long ago.
although there are various other threads on this same topic. I suggest the poetic slimline, it's what i use and seems to have all the qualities your looking for.
i bought the poetic that everyone here raves about. it looks very nice, but the problem i gave with it is the stand. after a couple of weeks it is very weak. i also bought and highly recommend the Moko Slim Case. looks great, fits perfect and the stand is much sturdier and has two viewing angles. it also has a loop on it to hold your stylus and a strap for your hand to slide into very comfortably. theres even an elastic strap that fits over the corners to keep case secured open when in use in your hand so the the cover doesnt flap around. highly recommend this product. youtube review of it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8eTdyBgbnI
and you can get it on amazon for $15.99 http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Slim-fit-Google-Android-Tablet/dp/B008FLYROG
I have the poetic slim in black and got it for 12 shipped on amazon. Like said above it's stand gets weak after awhile and isn't ideal for that. The reason I got it was to protect the screen and to not be bulky. It does that job really well.

Wallet Case?

Does anyone know of any good wallet cases for the p880?
I've looked around but accessories for the phone aren't particularly numerous.

I found that Nillkin do some nice cases - I bought the hard 'shield' case and the leather case - which may be what you are looking for.

I've got one of the flip style Nillkins, and it has kept my screen scratch free (touch wood) for 8 months at least. The only downside is that
it actually starts to get worn, so the bottom and top black and brown leather separates from each other. Some glue fixes that, and I've definitely seen worse from things bought at the retailer down the street. Anyways, I haven't really seen wallet cases for the 4X...
