Very nice !
A couple of thoughts:
* buy a cheap silicon skin to protect the back and edges of the plastic body: this would require you to increase the size of your alloy brackets, but the rubbery grip would make the Tab much more secure in the stand cradle.
* get rid of this awful useless screen protector (Gorilla glass is tough enough, and the silicon skin would prevent the alloy brackets to touch the display anyway)
Keep up the good work, and let us know about your incremental improvements / design revisions !

Next step: adjustable design

I got one of these at office max. Works both landscape and portrait.

And the picture frame easel mentioned above works well for travel.
But what you made has some sweet style.

I really like this stand. I have one of those leather cases with a built-in stand, but id like something like this as well. Or a more portable, possibly folding version of the mesh card holder. Looks great so far though!

here's mine,using a plastic SGT back cover, an old book end, and some good old Velcro tape! Took about $5 and 5 minutes to put together.

Man, I bet if i made one like this it would break when watching something and break the tab

Might want to think about doing a patent on your idea....looks great though

Velcro is pretty strong (read an article before where they wanted to use it in place of blots for building lightelweiht planes) ,you might even have trouble prying it off the stand! been using it everyday and the tab has never fallen off. if I feel like the Velcro is loosing grip, I can just replace it for $1.

Looking for: Cover for the white trim

Im looking for ideas on covering up the white trim.
I figured there may be a decal type of offering for the phone where i can put a sticker type thing to go over the black but haven't come across such a thing.
Or any ideas for successfully painting over it? =)
I'd really prefer a sticker though.
I don't want to use a case.
Sent from my DEFY using XDA app

if you really don't want a case and can't find a sticker, make your own sticker...

Any ideas on what type to use/where to get?
Sent from my DEFY using XDA app

No sorry it was just an idea, plus i live in Australia so i doubt any local shops going to be very helpful.

not really sure what you mean by "gel case" could you link a picture? (not necessarily of your phone)

i m thinking about getting one of these silicon cases :

There are available in a wide range of colours, i just want a hi-viz one for traipsing about in the wilderness.

Yeah I have seen those around too, I was thinking about getting one myself.
There is one thing I thought odd, why is the battery door lock exposed?
You cant open the door unless the gel is taken off first anyway. Just a thought and not a show stopper for me.

That is a very good question.
It may be that they are designed using a pre-release non-functioning dummy phone so they try to leave all ' functions' accessable without knowing what that actually are.

This is what the gel case looks like, just search "defy gel" on ebay and it brings up lots of various colours

yeah mate I think they are referred to as that - rubbery plastic - i always refer to them as gel cases. Its not that crappy sticky silicon rubbish

Yeah we refer to the silicon ones as gel skins here. The tpu we call tpu lol. Does yours have cut outs for the buttons? Or are they covered? If they are covered how hard is it to press?
Sent from my DEFY using XDA app

I have the amzer tpu case as well. It covers the buttons on the side, but not the wake/sleep button. The volume buttons are harder to press then I would like, but not unmanagable, and I don't use them much.

[REVIEW][i9023] Nilkin Hard White Case : Cleaned up the pictures!

So, my Nilkin case arrived in the mail on friday. Took 2 weeks.
The Gallery of images can be viewed here for a better look and experience. HERE
So here's the package.
Link1
Comes with a screen protector ( Not gonna change my screen protector yet )
Link2
And here are some pictures of the case being naked. (without the phone)
Link3
Link4
Link5
Link6
Link7
Link8
Link9
Now for pics with my phone with the case
Link10
Link11
Link12
Link13
Link14
Link15
Conclusion:
Overall a very good case. Actually makes the phone look very good. Especially the back where the phone looks slick. The fact that the bottom and top are protected halfway scares me, however i can take care of the phone well so it depends on you.
The case feels quite slippery when you hold it up, so you have to grip it tightly.
Looks good on the sides and all round. Generally a very nice case to have.
I love it.
I hope this review helps you to decide and if you liked this review PLEASE HIT THE THANKS BUTTON
Thanks for reading!

Could you please resize the images? they are a way to big

Update 1: Cleaned up all the pictures, just click the links to view them

If you keep dropping your phone you definitely need a cover. I dont think this is available for NS4G though. You'll have to look for a similar one.

Anyone bought this cover?

I think it's cheaper on eBay, but CASESSS.com offers faster shipping options and free to Singapore as well.

Aloha! /shaka

Looks great! Thanks I think I'm going to order one!

Just ordered! Case looks really nice is exactly what I'm looking for. I like the feel of the tablet alone and not some clunky trifecta-folding-triangle that you can put your pens and credit cards in. This + a screen protector = all you should need!
Thanks for link!!

Looks like the perfect case to hold you over until you find something you want.

The Snupped ones seem pretty cool, but I'm not sure about having to ship it over from Singapore. The first Etsy post was not bad either. I'm wondering if groups like Byrd & Bell (wool + leather) will start making them for the Nexus 7, but they do have one for the Kindle Fire (which would probably fit). The only thing is that it's pretty expensive for a sleeve ($48).

It has the magnetic system for waking and sleeping the device.
Nothing is blocked.... the ports, the speakers, and the camera are all exposed.
Slip your hand under the elastic strap in the back to make one handed operation possible
To use it as a stand, this is how you are supposed to do it, but I can't bring myself to bend it at the crease in the back.
So at this point, I am using it as a stand like this:

Looks good! The only thing I don't like is the stylus loop, not gonna ever be getting a stylus and feel any case with the loop detracts from the overall clean lines of a case!

No stylus for myself either. A person with a steady hand and an exacto or utility knife would be able to remove that loop without hardly a trace of it ever being there.
