Ordered mine already.
Isn't that basically a super-classy version of the pouch that comes in the box?
Yeas, but it is 'supper-classy' .
Better quality leather, with no outside seam - so fits really well without extra bulk.
Tooo each there own, tho i wouldnt shell out any money for just a pouch like that, im happy with the one i got
nice but........
........a bit too expensive. ill be sticking to the stock case.........
thats nice and all but i think the stock case does a fine job at scratches
i bought a white hibrid case from ebay just to try it....and guess what...dude is really nice....and was only 4 pounds. screen protector+hibrid case=powerfull shield.i love it

Ordered Black.
Will post photos when received.
Why waste money on a pouch case when the one that is supplied with the Leo is more than good enough?

Why do you need to decide for other people that the supplied case is "more than good enough"? Please let people judge for themself. If you don't see the point of something, please be quiet, no need to post your opinion in that case. Thx,bye.

I'm not deciding anything for anyone, if people wish to spend good money on another version of what they already own they're perfectly welcome. But this is a forum and posting opinion's is what they're about. I'm genuinely curious as to why someone would buy this.
I hope this helps but feel free to ask for an elaboration.

Do you really not understand the reason that people want a good quality leather pouch instead of a cheap looking fake leather pouche? I can't believe it! You have to be joking me!
Why do people buy any kind of luxury at all? Did you every think of that? Why do people buy a vase of 5000 euro when a vase of 2 euro functions the same: you can put flowers inside. Let me tell you something about life: People don't buy only for the reason that something is practical: people buy by emotion.

Bad example, I couldn't think of any reason to buy a vase full stop, never mind an expensive one.
As for the emotion side of things, I'm well aware of that. I can't see how that applies to a phone cover but each to their own.

The lesson for today : It applies on everything that people buy that has to do with luxury.
That's what I tried to explain and that is the reason that I took a extreme example of the €5.000 vase
But to be frank, emotion applies maybe even more then average when it comes to leather accessories. One of the biggest luxury icons at this moment is Louis Vuitton. They also produce leather accessories. Louis Vuitton made a revenue of almost €2.000.000.000 last year. I hope you get the point now.

My pda/pocket pc/smartphone has been my most used device and is one of few things I have always had on me for the past 8 years. Whatever device I have at the time holds a high value to me, so I have always spent the extra money for a nice leather case. It's kind of a fashion accessory along with protection for my most important device. I usually spend $50-$100 for a custom made Vaja, Noreve, or PielFrama case. It's the same as buying nice shoes or clothes... it's something that I wear, as it's usually attacked with a belt clip. Smartphones are the modern day pda and they hold a lot of value to people. People practically have their lives organized and stored on these devices. It's an accessory they always have on them, like shoes, clothes, jewelry, handbags, etc.
wow !!!, next you lot will be argueing over the price of leather handbags. as for the op's new case, too posh for me, i like the (free) cheap looking stock case.....
LV should produce nice pouches for our HD2s! lol
tbh, this Sena case really looks nice!
Guys I can wait no more. There were lucky people out there that could preorder the cover from Google Play store but right now it says "Coming soon".
I'm buying a 16GB N7. My question is that do I have to pay the shipping cost again when the cover is available even if it becomes available in that 1-2 weeks time frame that the N7 itself ships?
What does "Coming soon" really mean in your opinion? How long more do we have to wait?

You will have to pay shipping again and I have no idea when they plan on releasing it. That said, the people who have received one don't seem overly impressed. You may consider taking a peak over at Amazon.

Don't bother dude. I think i'll go for case logic from Amazon.
I like the case design (TPU case with screen protection) but the material quality is HORRIBLE and it feels really cheap.

Quick hijack.
How happy are you With your stylus?
Would like one but have no clue which to get. So many.
/end hijack. - HA! originally wrote hijack off. Oh look at that. Wrote it anyway.
Don't bother with the case. I got ripped off with the gray official one. Heavy, bulky, peels my screen protector and it got a big floppy rubber sheet for a "cover." The thing doesn't even close at all. It feels alright in the hand but its even awkward having to fold the rubber flap back to use it in landscape mode.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Personally, I like the case. Fold the cover back, it feels like a book. Cover sticks to screen magnetically and case fits snug. My only gripe is the power button is a little difficult to press, I need my volume screen on!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
After using the official case from the Play Store for about a week; it's just rubbish. The power button is so hard to press, the flap closes and activates apps if you haven't bothered to manually turn off the screen. It's just a placeholder till something better comes on the horizon. I'll probably end up returning it.
I, like most of you, am pretty underwhelmed at the quality of cases and covers available for the Nexus 7. Everything I've seen looks extremely bulking and makes the device look terrible. Does anyone know of any case that doesn't make the device look terrible. I just want something that has the smart unlock feature and that can fold to make a stand. The official case from google does none of those and I'm very disappointed in them. Though, I guess it was a lawsuit waiting to happen with Apple I guess

I love the idea, and Isaiah seems like a good guy that I'd like to support. My only worry is wear on the stress points of the material that's being used to cover the panels. Will it split or wear holes through where it flexes or supports weight?

They look good, but they look like $25 cases, but they seem to sell for $60. If this is a lot cheaper, I'd go for it.

Normally prices on Amazon do not change after the cover is released. I did notice that the slim fit cover for moko changed by a few dollars after launch but nothing drastic. That could have also been because they did 2 recalls on it It is however a risk you take.
As for me I am waiting for some reviews.

Hi Folks,
I emailed Incipio last week to see if they intended making covers for the N7 like they do for the Ipad and they emailed me back last night to say they are releasing a range of products but no details are available yet, but to keep an eye on their website and there should be info there soon. Would really like a Incipio feather case for my 7 along with a smart cover..
Hopefully in the next few weeks we'll have more info
Cheers,
Mick

Hope they make the legend case! Its the best case I've seen so far
These cases are amazing. I've Put some cash aside for when these are released. Even the international shipping seems reasonable. I'm surprised there isn't more mention of these on the forum rather than all the cheap plether bulky rubbish everyone seems to like! No accounting for taste!
Any updates on this?
I got this response from them yesterday. I did ask about which specific cases might be available but no details yet.

Thank you for your follow up email. We do have plans to be making cases for the Nexus 7, however they’re currently in development so we do not currently have an estimated release date for the cases. I apologize for any inconveniences, however if you have any other questions, feel free to let us know.

Exactly. Google is selling tons of these things and it's been over a month now. I want to give my money to anyone that comes out with a "tank" case but no one is stepping up to the plate.

Maybe it's because lots of friggin people want to friggin buy them?
...or maybe it's because one size fits all and so it's easier to get one to market early.
No company can set up, tool up and manufacture quality products at the drop of a hat never mind them wanting to make sure there's going to be a sustainable market for it.
I realise that moaning is one of the US national pastimes but these forums are international and believe me it gets very old very quickly having to trawl past all these whinging posts to try and find the good stuff.

sweet looking forward to getting one

i agree with this. i also believe google announced the tablet and released it 2-3 weeks later and didn't work with anyone on accessories. perhaps it was to generate sales of their case, but the consumer got screwed. i'm not a fan of the asus case. from day one i wanted a leather case and over a month later, i'm still limited in my choices becasue companies are still working on their cases. i emailed marware last week and they still said 4-6 weeks.
OMG can this come any sooner?? :crying:
$30 for a sleeve? Are you guys seriously melting over this?
Talk about low standards.
Incipio makes decent cases, but they're always way overpriced. I got the N7 because of its value, and this is going to carry over with my accessories for it. If I wanted to overspend, I would have gotten an iPad.

Hi All,
I recently purchased a Nexus 7 case that I was extremely un-impressed by. The seller completely lied about everything on the case, it was a totally different colour, layout etc (BASICALLY A DIFFERENT CASE THAN PURCHASED)
I have had a re-fund but its not about the money, I love my N7 and think it is a smart device, (looking wise) haha.
I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a case?
I want:
A nice looking case that doesn't ruin the N7.
It has to be comfortable to hold and not add to much bulk to the N7.
Obviously has to be protective, but has to feel nice.
Would like one with a Sleep/Wake function (Unless someone recommends a nice pouch rather than case, as I don't take it out much so a pouch could be sufficiant)
Finally, I would like if possible, it to be able to be used a stand.
IT DOES NOT HAVE TO COVER ALL OF THESE AREAS!
Thanks in advanced people !!
Do some work yourself, read the forum here and check out the reviews.
