I have searched and looked everywhere but haven't found a recent post regarding a solid, good quality keyboard folio type case for the Nexus 7. I have found a few but want to know what you guys have and if you have any suggestions.
This is the Poetic Keybook case for the 7 but the reviews are up and down.
This is a offbrand Leather Folio keyboard case but doesn't have any reviews and just looks too cheap.
Thank you!
I purchased an off brand case pretty much just like the cheap eBay one you linked for an older 7" tablet, the Archos G8 70IT. It works, the keyboard is so-so. You'll need to get a full size to micro OTG adapter to use it. Here's a link to that case:
http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=72&t=39109&hilit=keyboard+case&start=60#p323848
Also what about this one vs the Poetic?

What about this? Just ordered one a couple days a go. Should be here today or tomorrow. Looked nice for 25 bucks.
Check this out on AMZN:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009WSCW4S/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8
That keyboard is covered in a few threads. Look for aluminum keyboard in the thread titles.

I read some threads on that. Heard it is a cheap plastic and not really aluminum.

I have a case made by rancid. Bought it at best buy which was ironic since they don't even sell the nexus 7. It stands in landscape at 2 1/2 intervals ( I say half because the "3rd" is basically flat just a slight tilt) and is leather. Great protection and feel. Strong too. Only issue is that its sort of complicated to make it stand at first but once you figure it out its not a problem...just took me 5 minutes my first time LOL.

I tried two cases out (one the off brand usb one, one the fake "aluminum" one that is made for the Nexus 7 and rebranded a million times) -- I vastly prefer the second one. It is actually really slick, but there are a few variants to be careful of.
I really want to get a decent keyboard for my Nexus 7 that I can easily carry around in my bag.
I'm sure I heard there was a 10 inch keyboard of this sort that the Nexus 7 can attach itself to, unless I read it wrong. Priority is having a TAB key.

this is really a good choice!! Nexus 7 Keyboard Cover – Nexus 7 Bluetooth Keyboard Leatherette Folio Case from uPlay (White Label) $49.99" you better try this guys! quicker and more comfortable typing....

Do you know if there is any keyboard for nexus 7 similar to the logitech keyboard folio? (I cannot post the link. Not the solar folio, the new keyboard folio presented in 3/2013)
or similar to the micosoft surface?

My recommendation would be the slim-fit Moko case. I currently have the slim case but plan on getting good it with the free exchange. Moko has proven to be a great company and offered a free change for all the people who bought a case without the "smart cover" . It comes out on Wednesday.

Found this one from the same company:
http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Rotating...343010232&sr=1-2&keywords=slim-fit+Moko+nexus
Not only does what I am looking for, but it also has an additional viewing angle over the other two moko cases. It doesn't mention it being thin, but it seems to have roughly the same dimensions as the ones that are listed as slim fit.
The main reason I want it slim is so that it can fit in a car holder, namely this one:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004M8ST36/
Can the moko cases fold back so that the flap isn't hanging out?
I decided to go with the rooCase bubble pouch. I like KT naked too much when I'm using it, I just wanted something to protect during travel

http://www.amazon.com/EXOTEK-Slim-Fit-Multi-Angle-Automatic-Function/dp/B008MIQGTQ
Just received an awesome case
I ordered this case in the UK a few days ago, just arrived, with a screen protector and a stylus pen aswell.
MOFRED® Case + Screen Protector + Stylus Pen
Built fantastically if slightly loose but not too much, makes the nexus 7 slightly thicker but is great build quality and the stylus pen is awesome.
Probably just as good as most others but only 6 pounds. Loving it. Hesitant to use the screen protector though.
Those colored TPU cases looks great, it's what I've been looking at on Amazon. The varied colors are sweet but I'd pick the white or the black.
That ebay link will take at least 2-3 weeks to arrive cause it comes from china. I'll probably order one off Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Exact-Design-Google-Android-Tablet/dp/B008LJKTGC?t=slickdeals&tag=slickdeals
And hope that it doesn't take that long. It's $6. Looks like Free Shipping. So I'm pulling the trigger on the black one.

I also bought this case. I have to say that I think it adds too much bulk. The stylus is actually great though. Not used my fingers since.
I've bought a gelaskin for the back and I'm gonna buy a slip to keep the N7 in when not in use.

Has anyone found any decent cases available in Canada at B&M stores or available on line? amazon.com has a lot of really nice cases, but paying $35-$40 for S&H is not economical, and amazon.ca doesn't seem to have much of anything that I've seen.

Good question. I eventually settled on a case from Amazon and paid for shipping which was almost the price of the tablet. I think the popularity of the Nexus will lead to more cases being available in the retail market but who wants to wait ?

I got the first one on the list on the link: amFilm. It fits perfectly (though pretty frustrating to install). The only down side is that it feels different than the screen, which is to be expected. Plus, the amFilm comes with 2 in the package just in case one doesn't install correctly (and at 7.95 its a steal).
To OP thanks for the guide, I wish I saw this before deciding on my current case, mainly to explore my options. I'm actually pretty happy with my Poetic Keybook, which was a surprise after reading the reviews. With a screen protector and the slight lift provided by the case around the N7, I am not at all concerned about the keys being near the screen.

I liked the Poetic Slimline with the smart cover, but I'm hoping for something a little more quality. Anybody else holding out for better cases or is this best we've seen?
Yeah, I know what you mean. I made the mistake of impulse buying the Asus TPU case that doesn't stay closed. I'm currently tempted by the Portenzo Hardback because I like the idea of it looking like a moleskin book, but I'd also like something that didn't require "adhesives" and could pivot on a desk.
I have order the nilkin tpu case but im waiting something better with smart cover from bigger players like belkin...
I am. I went with a Portenzo initially but the case just didnt meet my expectations so Im in the market for sometihng new. I like the Blurex slim fit folio but I dont really want a black case.

I sure hope someone, somewhere comes out with a decent case. Of seems everyone else making 7 inch tablets or EReaders seems to come out with very nice slime cover/cases ((Samsung, amazon kindles, hell even kobo). It has been long enough already.
To answer the question directly, yes I'm waiting anxiously for anything better.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Nope. I usually am all about craftsmanship, etc. but for some reason, a cheapo case is good enough for me. I guess because the "better" cases are almost always also bulkier and/or gaudier.
Edit: by the way, I have the same case as the OP and it does everything I need a case to do...basically protect the screen when shoved in a bag and not cost too much.
I'm waiting for Incipio to get their offerings on the table. A Lexington or LGND version would be great.
Hey guys,
we might have a couple of new winner:
http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/624779051/leather_case_for_google_nexus_7.html
http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/624836033/google_nexus_7_leather_case.html
They are similar to the poetic slimfit but hopefully they don't have the draw back and flaws.
(they seem to better protect the device than the other slim ebay cases)
I already asked the manufacturer if the cover properly fold all the way back, and if the auto sleep/wake function is triggered when the cover is fold back. waiting for the answer.
The problem: we need to buy at least 100 cases (wholesale manufacturer) ...
and I wasn't able to find these cases from a reseller neither on ebay nor on amazon ?

I can't see it being viable really, since the iPhone is flat sided and the Nexus 7 is, well, not. Also, do you want one for the 4 or the 7? Title says 7, post says 4. Regardless, unless you modify a TPU case, I don't see it happening.

To show the pattern and thinness: (see third attached photo)
The 'basketbally' pattern gives it a really nice grip and feel, the reflective 'X' is also grippy in a weird way. I don't miss the naked back at all.
I have never uploaded photos on XDA before and this is on the XDA app so I don't know how I will go...
EDIT: BTW, this is just a cheap Chinese eBay generic X design case, there are hundreds of eBay sellers selling these.

I have an Incipio case on mine. Fits perfectly, keeps your device safe from scratches. Doesn't do much else but looks good and is a good quality piece of plastic. I like it because it actually keeps my thin tablet thin, while still offering some protection unlike other cases which make your thin tablet into thick beast. It also comes with a screen protector so you can save money on that. It's a little under a millimeter thin all around.

Pretty much the same as the Insipio but way cheaper are the hoard of cheap Chinese made cases just like those found on eBay for less than 10 bucks even from domestic sellers although the direct from China ones are cheaper yet. Search hard plastic Nexus 7 case to see which ones I mean. Search hard Nexus 7 case to find cheaper ones from a huge list of cases including TPU ones although I find it quite a stretch to call TPU "hard." I have one of these on my HTC Flyer and love it although I never even looked for one for my Nexus since I wanted something over the screen.
