It looks like the silicone cases are now available at B&N.com.
Does anyone have one of these? How is it? Specifically, how "tight" does it fit?
I've had silicone cases for other devices that were a little loose and it was really annoying...
thanks
I have the black/dark gray one. It fits pretty snug around the whole unit. I would recommend it until otterbox comes out.
I have the blue one and it fits great.
Yeah I got the black one and its awesome.
I have one and not a fan. I hate silicon cases but can't find anything else that's not so bulky. The fit is good but mine bubbles around the bezel a little.
Just got my storm color silicone case and over all it is great. I prefer TPU cases myself but this is all that is being offerd right now. Fit is pretty tight but it bubbles on the side edge which is typical with silicone cases.I guess it is better than nothing.

I would have said this word for word. Been searching eBay for a TPU regularly.

Me too. I love tpu cases... hopefully one comes out soon.
Here's another vote for the silicon case. It is lightweight and snug, has a nicely 'grippy' texture, and hides the slight creakiness of the NC's casing.
Due to that grippy nature, it only reluctantly slides into the soft recesses of my timbuk2 case, though.
TPU does sound like interesting stuff, judging from this review of a $5 HTC Ego TPU case and the wikipedia page on thermoplastic polyurethanes.
Any updates on these silicon skins? I want something lighter than a case.
I got this one.
I love the grippy-ness, and no longer having to worry about the nook sliding around in the car or off the couch, or having to worry about scuffing it up.
Overall it's a pretty decent fit; the opening on the bottom edge of the screen isn't perfect, but it's not bad, and certainly not enough to remove it or look for something else.
Oh, and it smelled like complete and utter azz for the first day or so, but the smell has completely dissipated since then.
Edit: finally got around to adding a bit of double-sided tape around the inside lip of the silicone cover... now it's a nice, tight, perfect fit. =)
I got that one as well. I love it. It did smell pretty damn bad the first day
Got the Storm one from B&N and love it. Just what I needed. Had the book style and like this one much better. Very convenient.
I have a blue one, just got it last week. I like it a lot and for all the reasons listed- it doesn't slide around, I can hold it in my hand without fear of dropping it, it is snug, it looks nice
They told me at the store that the NC + the silicone case would not fit in a case/cover/book. So I bought a neoprene case. I really like the combination. It fits snuggly inside the neoprene case with the silicone cover on.
I haven't found the *perfect* cover/book for - I've tried several and just can not decide. Until I find something, I like the combo I have now. I realize I might have to take the silicone case off in order for th NC to fit in a regular case, but I don't mind having a few accessories around that serve different purposes.
i too have a B&N black silicone case and love it. Fits perfectly (with the usual slight rising along the screen edges). Bought the neoprene ($20 one) case for it but returned it because i felt like it was too tight and sometimes it pulled on the silicone sleeve. Instead, i went over to best buy and purchased their multi-purpose neoprene case. The dimensions are slightly bigger than the B&N case so it fits perfectly with a good amount of snugg-ness/tightness and there is room to add a microfiber cloth in there too. picked it up for $20 also. It is from Rocketfish and i am very happy with it!

I'm rocking this same combo (B&N black silicone case and Rocketfish universal neoprene sleeve) and absolutely love it.
I would highly recommend these two accessories.

but I do not know what should I buy
I've got the scosche foldio & really like it because it hardly adds any bulk to the tab.
Hi,
I would advice you to at least buy 2 case.
1. Foldable leather case with at least 2 landscape standing position groove
This one for premium feel & function outing.
2. Left, right & back protected transparent hard plastic case
This one for light & casual outing.
I'd also recommend the Zenus case, which isn't on the list. I got mine last month, and am pretty pleased with it. It's leather and adds some thickness, but it still fits in my coat pocket, but not most of my jeans' back pockets. I may break down and get a lighter one late Spring, or might just carry it around naked.

The Zenus is a very well made case, it looks classy and isn't bulky, doesn't cover any of the screen and the stand on it is solid and works well. I'm very pleased with the purchase, unlike the stock Samsung case which is quite poorly designed.
Yeah, after some weeks searching,
i found my favorit

Melkco Leather Case
I'm also looking for a tab case - great post with the video links. Since I'm new to the forum I can't post links, but google:
Melkco leather case galaxy tab
and it comes right up.
Retails at $69 USD. Pricey, but looks great.
otterbox case after a few drops i still love it.
I absolutely loathe cases where you have to slide the Phone/Tab into.
Not only are they difficult to put in and remove the device but they obstruct part of the screen and when you are swiping the leather edges can get in the way.
I much prefer the type that allows you to 'clip the Tab into place.
This method is easy to insert/remove and does not restrict the screen in any form.
Noreve do one (see here fore link) ~ This one has the added advantage of additional pockets for cards, notes, etc. and can be used as a stand to hold the Tab in Landscape.
Plus you can design the case to your own liking.
However, it's missing one vital ingredient for me and that is I would like to be able to remove the leather part that covers the screen.
I've seen cases where the case comes apart allowing you to remove the top screen cover which in turn makes it easier to hold and use the Tab when standing and if you put it down and want the screen on but not in it's stand you don't have a top cover flap hanging off at the side.
So... anyone seen a case similar to the Noreve but has a detachable screen cover?

It's an interesting design and as always the Apple brand gets the 'prettiest' of designs.
Not sure about that release mechanism though.... I'd rather have the top cover come completely off thus ensuring the sides and back are still protected.
Scosche Foldio is the best, no added bulk, easy to put in jacket pocket, even in a the back pocket of my jeans, easy to take out and show off if needed and makes an awesome stand.
I really like the Samsung Slide Release Sleeve. It protects the tab well but lets you get it out easily to use it. The Tab is a sexy device, no sense having it hidden away all the time!
I also have the "d30" leather travel case (from Carphone Warehouse) which is really nice for travelling (makes a good stand) but unfortunately it partially covers the soft buttons which can make it a pain to use.
I just received my ' Case Mate - Barely There '.
It is exactly what i was looking for. Not scared to place it on the table or sunroom floor anymore in case of scratching the back. I think the tab looks excellent in its all new black look
Now hopefully it will fit in the Brodit holder for my van
aha! TY for these links! helped me decide on 2 cases.
I've been looking, but I can not find one like this on Amazon, eBay, or in the forums to save my life, but I have seen people using it, and the few I was able to ask all said it was a gift and they don't know where it came from.
Its a case, with a hard plastic case, that snaps on, AND has the leather foam screen flap that allows you to stand the tablet up however way you want. It also has the smart feature, and allows the buttons to be pressed without praying for finger nails. The few I can find are for the ipad or ipad mini, but I shall not mention such filth again!. I use my tablet with my PS3 Controller a lot now and want a good case that I can access the buttons easily on. (Plus any good games that work with the six axis would be a plus, just play a lot of Shadowgun for now lol)
I like this one, but the flap is so weak and flimsy, thin. http://www.nillkin.com/upload/editorfiles/2012.9.13_10.32.23_7945.jpg
Any help is highly appreciated!!!
That's actually one of the nicer ones of that made in China style. Someone here did a review of the same general style in real leather. Not sure of the cost but perhaps the cover would be more sturdy on that case. I know I tossed up a link to a pairing that I like. Its a cheap real leather wrap around case which has the drawback of no protection to the sides of the Nexus combined with being held onto the tablet with a sickly pad. But combine that with a cheap TPU case and for 12 or 13 bucks total for both you have a nice case. You just stick the TPU case to the leather cover instead of the Nexus and you're golden.

Sorry for my english !
I have the moko multi angle and I think it's pretty good.

They are both nice,
I have both slim versions.
The poetic imo is hard to place on and the plastic kind blocks the on volume buttons.
Moko is more open in terms of the buttons there is no plastic blocking it.
Poetic feels more like a full coverage compared to Moko
But I prefer using my moko.
I use my moko ultraslim and I'll never go back to my poetic case. I love the feel and look. Extremely light

+1, moko ftw.
I'm buying the Moko then! thanks for the quick answer guys!
I bought both Moko and Poetic cases for my Nexus 10.
Both are really nice and light. but the Moko case is kinda brittle. I accidentally slammed the front cover to the magnet and the part where it holds the magnet cracked and now its loose.
I now use the Poetic case and loving it so far.
My N10 should arrive tomorrow! Also, the Moko case should arrive next week, I'll share my opinion shortly
I had the Moko Slim-Fit, but the quality of the leatherette was horrible -- a cheap and rough plastic feel. (Which was funny, because I had what ostensibly the same Moko Slim-Fit for my old Note 10.1, and it was much better quality.) After buying the i-Blason by mistake -- the POGO port was completely covered! -- I just got the Poetic Hardback. I'm not sure what the difference is between this and the Slimline -- they look the same -- but the closure latch is horrible. It will only close completely if you actually pinch it closed forcefully, otherwise the edge of the latch just sits on the top of the tablet, held in place primarily by the N10's grippiness and the tight fit.
I'm now debating whether to go for the Moko "Genuine Leather" Slim-Fit, or go for a third option with the Blurex Ultra-Slim. All of these things seemed to be made by the same manufacturer anyway.

I've got the moko genuine leather slim fit, and have had it on my Nexus 10 for several months. It's been excellent. I reported on it a few months back in this thread, and posted a pretty detailed review on Amazon too. It fits perfectly - I just about never remove it. After months of daily use there is NO visible wear at all. It's essentially still like new. Very pleased within h it. Highly recommended.

For anyone curious - just to be sure - this is the one I ordered:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A9G985S/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d0_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=0NZ4A2WTBBEHT8F80EF5&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1389517282&pf_rd_i=507846
I've had it on my Nexus 10 since February 24th -- it's only been off the table a couple of days in the past three and a half months. Still fits perfectly, functions perfectly, and looks like new despite heavy daily use. Very highly recommended. NOTE: this is the "genuine leather" version of the Moko Slim Fit Multi-Angle case -- there's NO chemical smell when new, whereas the plastic version (cheaper) may have the same solvent small that other folks have described with the plastic cases. This also seems to wear much better as well. Love it!
EDIT: I just updated the URL to be sure I got it right. Note: most of the Moko Slim Fit cases are "PU" Leather -- i.e., like most of the mass market cases from China, these are micro-thin sheets of leather underneath layers of polyurethane. When you look at the Moko page, mouse of the color choices, and about 3/4 of the way through the list you'll see the "black genuine leather" option - THAT is the one I have and is the one I recommend.

I have this Moko Genuine Leather case as well, along with a Noreve case. The only negative I would say about this case is that mine holds the N10 a little too tight on the sides. It makes it difficult to slide the N10 out. Also, I find it uncomfortable to hold while in the case for extended use, and the tab on the left side is just little too close to the headphone jack. Otherwise its a really good case for the money.

Actually, this is the link to the genuine leather Moko slim-fit: http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Genuine-Leather-Slim-Fit-Multi-angle/dp/B00AUP04ZG/. The link you have is to the plain black one, although you can select the genuine leather black one from the options provided.
I received the genuine leather Moko last night, and it is MUCH much better than the plain black one, which has an awful feel to it. The top latch is very good, unlike the Poetic, which seems to have a hard time with the rubber edge of the N10. That's probably more critical for me than the fit at the bottom, since I open and close the case far more often than I pull out the bottom and set it up for viewing. That bottom fit is a bit snug, like the Poetic, but this doesn't bother me too much. I'd rather have it that way than have the bottom swinging loose.

Thanks -- anything we can do to help folks find the right version of this. Even using the link that you provided, though, it's important to note that if you select what simply appears to be a different color than the "genuine leather black", you'll wind up getting a "PU leather" case, not a true leather case. The PU leather (polyurethane over a micro thin layer of leather) is what smells funky (in most instances), doesn't fit as well, and doesn't last as long. You can confirm the difference when you select a color by scrolling down the page and reading the expanded product description.
just got the moko case! it's all right! but I'm not foul satisfied. I'm waiting for the incipio team to make one. The moko is the better option out there right now I think.

Motorola? Or Moko? The Moko genuine leather is definitely the best of the portfolio/journal cases. I just got the Google book cover last week, though, and have been using that since. Definitely a different, much slimmer feel, a bit less secure feeling because it's just a flap over the screen, but still nice.
Hi XDA! I am looking for my PERFECT case/smartcover for the Nexus 7.
So the official Nexus 10 has a smart cover that is incorporated into the "rubber feet" on the back. Today, while walking through a mall, I saw these Blackberry Z10 smartcovers that are incorporated into the battery door.
Do you know of a case that is similar for the N7?
this is what the Blackberry Z10 battery door/smartcover look like http://bit.ly/10KGnO9
tried looking around, I haven't yet found anything so I gave up. Now my N7 has no case but I might just sell it an get an N10 anyways
The back has never needed any protection so these folio cases are pointless....it's the front that always has, and a bumper of sorts with the smartcover built in would be ideal
Exactly. The N7 is pretty bulky as is, dont need an extra layer in the back.

I have a moko cover that's pretty sweet. Its a portfolio case that let's you stand it in landscape to use with a Bluetooth keyboard or just to watch videos.
I tried posting a link but since I'm a new users, the forum won't allow me to. Just go to amazon and search for "moko slim-fit case" $15.99
Similar to the Blurex cases.
I've tried lots of cases. I DID like the Blurex/Moko style. However it did add a considerable amount of thickness. I also tried the Poetic case, which is a slim hard back plastic case with a smart case attached. It worked pretty well and latches shut at the end to keep closed. The Poetic case is the best case I've found for a smart cover type protection.
I eventually settled on a hardback book case. It is stylish and gives it a little more protection. The lid stays closed with a strap but some include wood shells with magnets. I opted for the cheapest solution and find it very good. In fact it has held up very well. The tablet is held in by sticky tape. I've owned mine for months and never had it fall out or need to be cleaned/restuck.
http://shop.portenzo.com/hardback-for-nexus-7/
Plenty of color combinations. I have a Red exterior, white inner liner, and a black strap. Nice and clean.
So iPAD mini like smart covers isn't available for the N7 ? I too just need a lightweight smart cover only to protect the screen and not the back and was wondering if something like poetic slimline exists?
The Poetic Slimline does exist, as my previous posts states, for the Nexus 7:
http://bit.ly/192m6YK
The iPad Smart Covers uses many magnets around the edge of the screen to keep the flappy flap tight against the surface. Others just use one side of magnets at the edge of the closing point.
Very good price too. I purchased mine for $20, but it is showing $9.95 at Amazon right now.
The Poetic was nice and I liked it but out of the 4-5 months I owned it, I had to replace it 3 times because the material would break at the seams. Poetic has a 3yr warranty and replaced it hassle free by just emailing them my Amazon order number. Because they are so cheap, they don't even bother wanting the old one returned... so while they were falling apart, other N7 owners didn't mind a free slightly worn case.
Here is a video of them:

Yea. In doing the research and finding that video, I noticed the different colors. When they first came out they only had black. I'd almost wouldn't mind picking up a baby blue or red one.
I noticed colors are a little more expensive.
@player911
After so much of research with matching my requirements, I just couldnt find an alternative to Poetic Slimline case. Looks like it isnt available in my country (India) which is not cheap option.
Any idea if there's any similar chinese ones or replica? Have seen few smart covers from China on Ebay but they have the problem of turning off the screen when cover is flipped around.

While the case covers both the front and back, the folding section does not, which makes it a bit slimmer (Hard to explain, take a look at the link for a picture). Apparently these cases don't suffer from the waking issue when folded backwards, either.
Here's a review I found: http://www.androidcentral.com/nillkin-leather-flip-cover-nexus-7
Dad recently bought a Nexus 7 and we ordered this case, though we haven't received it yet so can't offer any first-hand impressions.

Heard about Nillkin so let me see
EDIT:
Doesn't protect the screen as cover doesn't have magnets on edges(magnetic closure) like poetic one to close it 100%
EDIT2:
Ordered Poetic Slimline
