That's a generic system. NOT a "Nexus 7" keyboard and case. If you like it, buy it. My neighbor has one (looks identical) for his Coby 7" tablet. Myself, I don't like it. I'd rather use bluetooth.
This is the one he bought. Looks the same to me.

Had one for my first 7" tablet a couple of years ago, cheap nasty keyboard and bulky case though the case gave quite good protection. The keyboard died after a few months.
thanks for the feedback folks!

some people got this case.... theres a thread on it somewhere here....just search for it
I bought one...not all bad..you will need a USB on the go witch is always nice to have anyway. but the dig draw back is it will allow the tablet to slide out the sides...what I did was but a cheap snap on case and super glue to the lid that did the trick for me but I don't use it much

I think there's just the plastic one, I've yet to see a real aluminium one anywhere, unless you know of one?

The official case is awful. Huge, bulky, and the cover is just a big floppy piece of rubber.

They're not huge and bulky, your misinformed, it's actually really form fitting. Cheap yes, worth 20$ absolutely not, but bulky it is not.

Do you think it would be possible to buy and replace the back cover for this device. My dog bit my Nexus 7 and there are some bit marks on the back.
Dunno...any scratches on the screen?
Give it some time but I am sure we will see a couple third party backs. Saw one on eBay already but didn't trust the seller.

I saw a back cover for sale on ebay. I'm sure there's going to be plenty more for sale when the unit is actually released. I'm waiting for a nexus 7 tear down. I also want to know if the plastic rim around the tablet can be replaced as well. I kind of dented it and was wondering if it can be purchased.
That's one way to fix the screen seperation issue.

So Google has yet to release the Nexus 7 Case.. but its for sale at Sams Club?
I don't have a Sams Club membership, and I do not plan on support Walmart anymore than my wife already does...
Anyone know of a case, that is similar to the "Official" Nexus 7 case, but it available somewhere I do not need a membership?
I like the small/tight feature of that case. I can not stand a big bulky case that adds to the profile of the device.. I like how I can slip it in my back pocket, and every case I've found in the stores removes that ability.
As far as i know the travel case is for sale but the premium case is not yet released although pictures leaked
Sent using my Nexus 7 with Tapatalk
Seems dumb to me that they would wait so long to release the case. I'm holding out for an otterbox case.
The case listed on the Google Play store as "coming soon" is what you are referring to as a 'travel case' ... have not seen anything about a premium case.

You can order the travelcase at the asus website. I cant order from the play store so dont know about that. Premiumcase details are here:

I bought a proper Nexus case from Carphone Warehouse earlier today....it's kinda like a grey rubbery case with a flap that covers the screen...
Was looking at he case but decided against it on two things,1 there is no stand to prop up for watching films etc. 2 The cover flaps around so all kinds of crap can get on the screen if left in my bag.Shame as the rest of it and the way it holds the nexus is sweet

Was that the one made by Asus? Most Gamestops carry it, I looked at one today. Wasn't impressed with the feel, I'm sure that would slip out of my hands at some point.

looks like it. i've modded mine by cutting the useless flap off and keeping the back portion of it intact.
the flap if you join two ends up, actually then doubles up as a nice stand to lean the tablet against to watch films.

I also bought mine two days ago.
Only available in blue and pinks; None of the greys where in stock.
The grip is nice and if you flip the cover, the tablet stands in landscape easily and quite stable.
I attach some pictures of mine.

Does anyone know of a place where I can get a dummy plastic model replica of the nexus 7? I need it for fiberglassing a panel with the nexus 7 in it. I see plenty of ipad minis (unfortunately) but no others.
Nope, sorry. But, after 100+views I wonder if you'd be easier making one, given what you're interested in. The measurements are pretty well established and I've seen a number of threads with people designing and building, as I'm sure you have. Good luck, I'll be interested to see the results

Sorry, maybe not the best example but this is for the nexus 7. They did an iPad mini with a fully fiber glass back as well.

I could probably make you one out of wood or plastic.
Why not wrap your Nexus 7 in cellophane wrap, then use aluminum foil, as you would in car audio fiberglassing? :thumbup:

Yeah I have been watching the Amplified series and getting ides from them. I'm just afraid to taping my nexus 7 up and somehow messing it up while making the fiberglass. I think I have two options.
1. Make a crude model out of wood.
2. Buy a busted nexus 7 and tape it up.
I just sucks that there are plenty of ipad mini dummy models but not even one plastic model of a nexus 7.

Or you can wrap your nexus with few layers of aluminum, use some paper/plastic tape to make it stable enough, pull it off and fill it with hot wax.
Let it cool down, remove the aluminum wrap , cut the imprefections and even sand it down to make it smooth.
it should be good enought to have a model for your fiberglass work

Diztronic Matte Back Black TPU Case for HTC One (2013)
Just ordered this today. I've bought these cases for every phone I have had and haven't been let down. This piqued my interest because the buttons are cut out so I can use the IR sensor. Sad I can't see the back, but I guess I'll order a bumper if I am not happy.
This probably belongs in the Accessories forum...

No problem! The Commuter is a great case. I've had one on my 3D since I got it the day after launch and along w/ my screen protector it's done a great job for me. It doesn't have the built-in screen protector that the Defender has, but that case is too bulky for me.
