I'm not sure if you guys are familiar with the brand Yoobao, but the make really good cases for the iPads (yes, I know, an Apple product. blah blah blah). My GF currently has it on her iPad2 and the fit is awesome.

Anywho, I was wondering if anybody ran into a similar case like that of the Yoobao for the Nexus 7??
I've seen the YooMee, and frankly its not what I'm really looking for.

Don't see anything for the Nexus 7, only stuff for the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0
they make cases for the Galaxy Tab 7.0 which has similar dimensions. I wonder if it would fit...
Yea, but Belkin is way overpriced and their products are crap
Finally got an email from YooBao. Be on the lookout for next month, they make really good cases and the fit is phenomenal.
Dear XXXXX,
Nice days!
Thanks for your interests in Yoobao products and sorry for our late reply.
The case for Google Nexus 7 will come out next month.
When it comes out, you can see it on our website.

Funny I just replaced my 10 year old belkin 54 g wifi router not because it didn't work anymore, but because I now have a roommate and want more bandwidth for the home network. Guess 10 years of solid reliable service is crap, huh?

The case is displayed on their wbdsite. Looks like smaller version of the good Ipad case.
Had a yoobao case on my sensation. The case is actually flame resistant and honestly had a great fit and look.
Looks like the case is out:
http://www.aliexpress.com/product-f...Case-for-google-nexus-7stand-wholesalers.html
$30 with free shipping. A much better deal than the Official case for the same price.
also available on eBay for $5-10 more.
Has anyone used Aliexpress or Alibaba? I think they're mostly direct to retailer/wholesaler shop out of China.

oh, and does anyone know if these will have the velcro strip on the inside to keep the flap that holds the tab in place from slipping out? I LOVED the Yoobao case for my iPad, except for the lack of this feature.
I looked a lot before I settled on the Yoobao case for my iPad and haven't seen a nicer case. Their N7 case looks like the same design which is great. The only thing about my iPad case is that it is a version 3 meaning it took 3 tries before they ironed out the issues. Version 3 of the iPad case corrected some issues with the smart on features as we'll as add magnets to hold the front flap in place.
I suspect that this N7 cover may not have the smart on/off feature yet and if they follow foot steps of the iPad they will probably produce a v.2 in short time with the smart on/off. At $30 plus, I'd wait til they produce one with the smart feature.

It's actually $30 with free shipping, so just flat $30. I think it's a much better deal than the official case which costs the same (if you add shipping).
I'm actually assuming that they've incorporated all the things that they learned from the various versions of the other cases and implemented them into the first version of their newer cases. I know that my Yoobao ipad case had the smart on/off but not the magnet to keep it closed. It didn't fling open though. The one feature it lacked was the thin velcro strip to keep the flap that kept the ipad in the case from slipping so it constantly needed readjusting. Did yours have this?
I just ordered one of these from mobile fun.co.uk
amazing case brilliant quality here it is its out and in stock but be quick they sell very very fast

My Version 3 Yoobao iPad case did not have the velcro to hold down the flap, however, I never found the iPad moved around and needing adjustment.
Your assumption about Yoobao incorporating all the things they learned from other cases for the N7 case is sort of right. They actually already have a Revision 2 case for the N7 with a "fixed Sleep/Wake" and Magnetic Closure.
The review from mobile fun.co.uk seems to indicate the case puts the tablet asleep when folded all the way over. Waiting for reviews from here before I take the plunge.
I've just ordered this from the kevikev ebay store. It's cheaper to do that with shipping than to order here in UK. Here's hoping the version 2 has the magnet issue resolved. The case looks very nice.
Since we've only had our tablets for a short time, I might be a little premature in asking but has anyone used any of these USB keyboards with the N7? If so, if the tablet is placed on the stand in portrait mode, does the cable reach the USB port? I assume they're not full-travel keys but do people find them ok for touch typing? Do any of them suck the battery or are they usable for hours at a time?
Does anyone have any recommendations for better keyboards?

Not trying to burst your bubble, but i don't think any of those will work with N7. When getting keyboards, I would go for name brand items because you don't want a laggy keyboard. If I were you I would get one of the following:

(There's a review on this keyboard on this forum. You can get this on eBay for $30) http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Tabl...5&sr=1-2&keywords=logitech+bluetooth+keyboard
I hope i helped. The problem with cheap keyboard cases is that a lot of times they don't work. Sometimes you get what you pay for.

I think the cases he linked actually would work -- I have one that looks identical, and is indeed functional, though the Nexus tends to slide out the sides of the case.
However, I think you are right; you DO get what you pay for. The keys are bit mushy and so on, the case is huge, etc. Hey, for the price, it might be worth it, though I wouldn't recommend it. I don't have any regrets either, though.
Have a few questions on keyboards I hope someone can help with.
On the Logitech Tablet Keyboard for Android. Logitech's website is quite clear that the iPad version is incompatible with the Android version. Has anyone tried? The Android one isn't too easy to get in the UK (well not reasonably priced) but the iPad one is.
Any first hand experience of the Logitech versus the Motorola Xoom keyboard? I like the Logitech case/stand thingy but past that both keyboards are the same size so which is better?
And back to the Logitech, any recommended UK suppliers?

I'm in the same boat - was looking to get an Asus Pad Infinity upon release, but tempted by the Nexus 7 + Logitech combo instead.
Now I'd just need to secure the keyboard in the UK and I'm good to go...!

I ideally want a keyboard/case combo but everything seems to have too small a keyboard for my liking (I put it down to the size of the Nexus 7). I have seen the Logitech stuff mentioned a few times and I am interested in it although I haven't found anything online. I've been using Logitech computer accessories for years (mouse/keyboard/speakers etc) and I'm always impressed with the build quality and performance. I have an unfortunate habit of not buying cheaper accessories as now I can afford better products and I have experienced the "buy cheap, buy twice" too many times to warrant shelling out £15-£20 on a case that doesn't fit properly or has sub standard build quality. After all, I'm going to be putting a £200 tablet in it.

I would guess none of the keyboards the OP linked would cause any lag at all, since they are all attached to the tablet via USB/OTB
the ones that you link are bluetooth keyboards, which vary in performance greatly.
(The OP here...)
I'd go with the Logitech if there wasn't any lag. I expect a powered BT keyboard would use less of the N7's battery than a USB one. And though the BT keyboard's battery would only last a few hours, I'm sure that would suffice for my use case.
I'd be surprised if Logitech don't bring this keyboard to the UK. They'd miss a lot of sales, IMO.

actually, they all work. ive got one of them, and it works fine.
pretty much any usb keyboard will work. my thermaltake meka g unit with its cherry black mechanical switches works fine, as does my ducky shine with cherry red mechanical switches and full led backlit powered from the nexus 7 via usb. no notable lag, they all work as expected.
You don't have to buy a keyboard case to get a nice USB keyboard for the tablet. Just about any USB keyboard will work fine as long as you have a USB OTG cable.
That said I also have the Logitech Bluetooth keyboard, and it's one of the best slim keyboards, tablet or otherwise, that I have used. I haven't seen any lag so far, though if you sit really far away from the tablet I suppose you could introduce some signal issues. Usually if your keyboard is lagging, it's either a software issue or the batteries are going dead.
The Logitech keyboard seems pretty nice, but isn't it a bit large for pairing with a 7" tab?

You wouldn't want a 7" keyboard to go with it, trust me. It does look a little awkward at first to have the keyboard wider than the tablet in landscape, but no more awkward than the promotional photos of the iPad and its portrait keyboard dock.
I used to have an Asus TF101, and even as a 10" tab the keyboard dock was really cramped, and the keys were about 10% smaller than normal so that they would fit. With the Logitech keyboard you get full size keys, so it feels more natural to type on.

Yeah, a 7" keyboard would probably be too small to be useful. The Zagg keyboard though looks like it might be a nice compromise. I'm leaning towards that one, as it seems small enough to stick into a large pocket and to fit on, say, an airplane tray table if needed, but big enough that you could type on it for a little while before it got uncomfortable. How portable would you say the Logitech one is?

I'd say it's portable enough for most people. It's about the same dimensions as the Zagg keyboard. If you have a full size keyboard somewhere nearby, you can do a good comparison by just measuring the width from the left edge of the left Shift key to the right edge of the right Shift key. That's how wide the Logitech keyboard is, and it's about the same height from the bottom of the space bar to the top of the Function keys on standard keyboards.
Naturally when i first bought my N7 i wanted to put it right inside of a case to avoid damaging the tablet. I am a pretty clumsy guy, so i went right onto Amazon to look for a case suitable for the N7. I discovered this tablet case/stand and usb keyboard combination, marked down from $32.00 to $7.15. It comes with a usb keyboard, that seems a bit flimsy, but is reported to work the N7 just fine. And the N7 fits right into the case without any issues and is
very secure. The only downside is it does not come with an otg cable, but those are cheap now. The cases exterior is made of artificial leather, but it feels nice and i feel my tablet is safe inside the case. It also has a stand, and its very sturdy and it sits the tablet a good angle. I think its a good product especially for the price. Hope this helps.

The keys look a little too small for those who type very fast. But for 7 bucks, i mean its worth a shot.
Anyone try this? If so how are the keys?
Read some reviews and for the price you cannot do better. However, if its somewhat hard to type on people might be better off with the touchscreen keyboard.
Good find!!

I tried to type on the keys, just to get a feel for it, and they do seem a small, especially if your a big guy (im 6'2 200 plus). It just may take some getting used to, but as you said for the price you can't beat it.
This type of case has been posted about a few times now, it won't work with your N7, at least not without you also buying an adaptor, it has the wrong connector. The styluses are only good for the bin as they won't work either.
I had this same case on my very first tablet, it was OK... you will easily find a better case for not much more money, the keyboard worked with my old tablet just fine (need to use an adapter and you will too if you use it with the n7) it felt OK typing on it but it was better than the onscreen keyboard.
With the n7 I feel this on screen keyboard would be better than the one supplied with case
The stylus worked on that tablet but. Doubt it would on the n7 as this is a capacitative touch while my old tablet was resistive (yeah I know terrible but it was my first tablet a long time ago)
I bought a cheap 7$ case from eBay for my n7, it works, seems protective, folds to a stand but **** is it ugly! I only used it a few days and have been using my tablet naked form then on, still in the market for a nice case, maybe in the 15-30$ range if anyone has any recommendations

I bought one of these cases with the built-in keyboard:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/370569042688
and one of these OTG adapters:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/261063649106
and together they work fine on my N7. The keys are on the small side but they're not terrible. If I ever have the inclination to do more than a little typing on my tablet then it would be quite satisfactory.
I don't understand why the need for an OTG cable. Any micro adapter will do. Or just buy a keyboard with a microusb cable in it already. The only problem that I didn't expect (size was a given) was that the usb cables on these cheap keyboards are waaay to thin and break easily. My suggestion is to get a bluetooth keyboard for another twenty bucks. That is until I find out that they also have some manufacturing problem.

problem would be battery life for the tablet and the keyboard, seems to use a lot more than just usb. and you can get keyboards of higher quality and the proper port, they are just more expensive than I'm willing to pay

"The smaller tablet is not as good at content creation as its larger siblings, but for those curious about external keyboards I found one that works with the Nexus 7. The Logitech Keyboard Case for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 pairs and works with the Nexus 7, even the special tablet control keys. The Nexus 7 doesn't fit in the stand, though, so it's an iffy pair at best."
I just actually received this keyboard today. It's very high quality, sturdy and typed very quickly when I paired it with my HTV Evo 4G LTE. Unfortunately, my nexus is RMA-ing right now so I'm not able to try it with that. I stuck my old kindle keyboard (about the same size as the nexus 7) in the built-in stand just to see how it fits and it stood fine, however I'm concerned that the nexus 7 might be too thick.
However, if you use this and a decent folio case from amazon, it is BY FAR the cheapest and probably best option I've seen.

The onesaleaday.com item is a keyboard stand but it doubles as a "case" where you can "lock" your galaxy tab 10.1 onto the recessed keyboard. The Nexus 7 will not fit that way obviously but Im thinking it will fit in the 'stand' part of it.
EDIT: Galaxy Tab 10.1 Thickness is .33" - Nexus 7 Thickness is .41". Probably will not fit. A couple of mm makes a big difference
If nothing else, its still a cheap bluetooth keyboard solution
I just got mine today in the mail and I'm using it right now to type this and its pretty good, feels well built and connected with no problem. The Nexus doe not fit in the stand to hold it up, its too thick, but I knew that before I bought it, for the price it seems to be worth it 15$ shipped and it has shortcuts to different programs like email and Google Now and can control the volume. I'm happy with it!

Also, the Motorola Android Keyboard is on sale for $22 today, but doesn't come with a case and may or may not work with the Nexus 7/Jelly Bean.

I have the motorola and it works really good. Its got some android hotkeys that the other bluetooth keyboards dont have. However the following don't work on JellyBean (or the nexus 7 in particular):
- the messenger hotkey (obviously)
- the browser hotkey
- the menu hotkey (this kinda irritates me. Maybe it depends on the app)
I have the Logitech Android keyboard and it's great! You can get it on Ebay for around $30

Its too big and then you must carry two discrete pieces. That's a nonstarter for many. I require an integrated keyboard / case solution.
FWIW, I purchased one such product at Amazon today: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009S...175-7600503-0167501?ref_=cm_cr_pr_product_top
It seems to be a bit thinner than the also cool kybd / case folios like benchmark9 shared. Doesn't have a tab key but I can emulate it with External Keyboard Helper Pro.
Hoping for some better products like these from Zagg, Logitech, or even Google. MS Surface has some great keyboard cases eh...

I know that a lot has been written to the contrary, but I'm a huge fan. It took a little getting used to, but once I got it down, the keyboard is excellent. I cant do the separate keyboard simply for the fact that I would need to carry it in a bag or something.
The poetic keybook solved this issue, as it is an all in one case/keyboard with removable keyboard if need be.

Nexus 7 Keyboard
It is very good looking and cool. This is Aluminum Case and Wireless
Bluetooth Keyboard for Google
Nexus 7 .It will protect the front screen and the typing also so easy. Hope my recommendation helps.
I bet its made of plastic. Same keyboard at brando.com for 30$ and they coreected aluminium by plastic. Ebay is offering from 22$ shipped from HK.
I have looked at the keyboards (from the posted links) and some on amazon. i really like the ones where the keyboard and nexus 7 fit into one nice/small case:

but the keyboard seem SOOO small. what do you guys think? What you go with something like above or one of the large leather cases with a bigger keyboard?
thank you in advance for any input you can provide.
Thats the price tag ... small case houses small keyboard. And I have to correct me, even on Amazon below 20 bucks ...
