Smart case from UK?

Is there anywhere in the UK I can get a good quality smart case/cover for the N7? I see a lot posted here but they're from the US, such as this one.
I'm also looking for a precise stylus for note taking uses.

Instead of eBay.com try eBay.co.uk or Amazon.co.uk, many sellers have UK stock.

Will this do? http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/35714-SD...Google-Nexus-7-Case-Black-Reviews.htm#reviews

This is the one I got, which I paid £12.95 for, and now it's £8.95.
I have no regrets buying it:

Actually, you know what? Anyone know of any good sleeves for the N7? I want a sleeve to protect it whilst it's in my bag but will also protect against damage from dropping it (On the bus etc.)
Anyone know of a one that fits snug that can be bought in the UK?

Etsy.com is a GREAT source for Nexus sleeves. It's where I purchased my Superwoman sleeve from. It held me over until I was ready to decide on a case. There are thousands of affordable, handmade sleeve on there as well as more premium leather ones. You can literally find anything on there. Mine was 12$.

Anyone tried PDair pouch?

I Can not decide what case to choose, SENA one, but it's to thin and I hate the leather pattern, or go for good ol' PDair,
they have than one http://www.pdair.com/index.php/eboo...google-nexus-7-vertical-pouch-type-black.html with multiple stitching color to chose from.
I asked them what the inner side part is made of, and they told me
"Thanks for your enquiry. ALL our Genuine PDair Leather Case is made of Premium Korea Cowhide leather and inner part is pvc. The inner part is a little hard to support the case but won’t get scratchiness on the phone."
Now PVC can also mean vinyl, maybe they mean it's hard to bend but soft to touch? anyway post your answers, still think to go with PDair as the shipping is free, SENA wat's 30$ to ship to Israel and it's ridiculously pricier, LOL not that I'm one to complain, as I ordered some acessories from EXPANSYS UK (extended battery w/cover, and desktop multimedia dock for my GNEX, but they was cheaper back then in comparison to eBay):silly:

If you want to pay $50 for a pouch you can buy for $5 then by all means do ok it's leather on the outside but it's damned thin leather. I've had a couple of PDair cases for phones and they are well enough made but vastly overpriced for what you get.
If you want to pay that kind of money for real leather, have a search of this forum. Someone posted a couple of months ago about some hand made stuff that was real quality.

Well to describe my problem, I want to use it with the dock, when it out, I will not say they overpriced, I use SGP Crumena for my Galaxy Nexus, that cost me 30$, and it worth the money, from all the crap I seen on eBay, there also MOFi soft pouches, but I only zip type, I want one like a sack with strap, and the big size sold on taobao or resellers, and I afraid to deal with them, SENA looks cheap with that ugly pattern and 30$ for shipping? the PDair exist many years so I know what I pay for, what else can you recommend?

^^ etsy.com
Thousands of quality, handmade sleeves ranging from cheap 12$ cloth ones to superb leather ones. Take a look. Just about everything there is handmade by people who do this in their homes for a living.

Thanks, very creative stuff, but I want something from a brand like the SENA or PDair, they have another one;
http://www.pdair.com/index.php/eboo...-asus-google-nexus-7-business-type-black.html
Yeah I know the price is like 2 smartphone cases, but it will be used for good, I think I even maybe sell the SGP of my GNEX to make some profit,
and get a one from PDair to make a pair, they have same case for NOTE (II), so maybe they can make me a smaller one
but keep up with the comments, I just couldn't find any reviews of the tablet cases they sell.

It's a trap

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.

A cousin of mine bought one of the below Leather pouches for his Samsung Series 9 laptop, looks sexy as hell. Bit on the large size though.

Wow, it seems cool!Where did you get it? And what the material of it?
I’d like to get one too!

I would recommend this if you are wanting complete protection while in envelope

Edit
Much cheaper on Amazon

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:

Anyone recommend a leather pouch for the edge?

Hi all,
As above, looking for a leather pouch that is a good(not too tight) fit for the edge
Must either have a pull strap to get the phone out (and be a reasonably tight fit so it doesn't fall out)
or
Must be a sensible fit with a flip magnetic clip to hold the phone from falling out
Anyone seen any that are released yet for UK buyers?
Thanks!

Reiko or Cellbee. Both are on Amazon. I haven't used Cellbee before but it has good reviews.
My Reiko is still holding up well after 2 years.
Sent from my SPH-L720

Thanks I'll take a look!

KAVAJ do some nice leather pouches and cases too (genuine not fake PU cap leather)
The below is their first product which I'm getting for s6 edge. Their rest of the portfolio line up will follow suit

Of if you just want premium leather pouch then go for a company like hard graft (but they are very expensive)

Rebecca Minkoff
Try searching for Rebecca Minkoff leather pouch for s6. I am still not allowed to post pictures of the item but I guess that is the pouch you are looking for.

Search this Euro ebay like store for uniquely designed goods. Many wallets and pouches https://www.etsy.com/

Thanks for all suggestions
Will check them out
Budget it around £30 (slightly more maybe depending on quality / any guarantee offered)

Tech21 cases?

Anybody using the tech21 cases commonly found at the tmobile stores?
I searched around and only saw one post, not much else... Any opinions?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/accessories/leather-t3120658/page5 theres a user who posted pic of his leather back phone in it. i should be getting mine by mail from tmo but its one of the few case i know that support the leather back without any issues

Fits very well. Also bought tech21 screen protector and it has a small strip that leaves screen uncovered for case use. Screen protector is smooth as glass but I will warn you it smudges like crazy.

If anyone buy it, could you show me the link? Thanks in advice.

I bought the Tech 21 "EVO Wallet" from the local T-Mobile store for my leather-backed G4. I needed SOMETHING to protect the phone, and that seemed to be the best option that was available in the T-Mobile retail store. It worked okay, but I didn't like the case. The fit was good, and I think it protected the phone pretty well, but I didn't like the fold-over flap. I like to hold my phone one-handed a lot, and the flap just got in the way.
I wound up ordering the Verus THOR case from Amazon for $14.99 with Amazon Prime: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VGZSS9S
I like the Verus case a lot better. It fit very well with my leather-backed G4, and although it doesn't seem as rugged as an OtterBox Defender, it still seems pretty rugged. Unfortunately, the silver color that I picked out doesn't go very well with the brown leather back, so I may be finding a different back once they become available.
Edit: Here's a link to the Tech 21 case I was using: https://www.tech21.com/lg-g4-case-evo-wallet-black.html

I'm using Tech21 Evo Tactical at the moment,waiting for more choices for wireless charging cases.
It fits well and Tmo only charged $20 for it.
