Oberon Cases

http://oberondesign.com/e-reader-covers-12/nexus.html
I have not had my hands on any of these cases recently but I did get my hands on one for the nook several years ago. the case was solidly designed and with good quality leather.
They have several nice designs, but are a bit on the more expensive side.

Very nice, pricey (at least for me). Reminded me of Lord of Rings, Wizard-like.

Lol! Paying over 1/3 the price you paid for the actual device on a cover is just dumb to me.

Maybe but i thought they worth mention because i know a lot of "dumb" people that have bought these for their devices. The ipad ones are 123 bucks. But the quality of the covers is probably the tops of what i have ever seen.

I generally HATE leather cases but if they came out with a Necronomicon one a la Evil Dead/Army of Darkness I would be all over it.

+1000!! :laugh:
But I bought one of these for my wifes nook back in the day and it is a sweet case. Definately worth the price, when you talk about quality equating to price.

They look so Diablo'ish! If Deckard Cain had a tablet.... This would be the case he would use!! Haha

Guess I am one of the dumb one. Would prefer buying quality 1 time as opposed to 5 cheap Chinese knockoff crap but more power to you.

Define "Quality" because aside from a single expensive slab of leather, there's NOTHING here. This case offers nearly ZERO protection against, well, anything. The damned tablet is literally held in with STRINGS FFS! Not good ones either, nooo. They are elastic bungee and will allow the thing to hit the ground under impact. Then they want you to bend it backwards and TIE IT THAT WAY and call this a stand? LOL. Now, sure the leather is nice looking. But to call this a "case" is probably illegal in several countries. Let's call it what it is. It's a fashion accessory. Nothing more. Now if a fashion accessory is worth more to you than protecting your device, then by all means spend 70 bucks on it. It's a free country. I want you to have whatever you want, and pay as much as you want to for it. But don't come in here talking down to everyone else that didn't buy this case like we are dumb and are gonna have to replace ours over and over while you, in your infinite wisdom, will not. This just makes you a douche bag, Our cases might be less expensive, but every one of those 5 "Chinese Knockoffs" (as you call them)will protect this device better and for longer than this ridiculous attempt at a case. Does that make you dumb for having bought one? Only if you labor under the delusion that because you paid so much for it, it's somehow a better quality case and will protect your tablet better. Because it won't. Not even close. It's just pretty. Pretty useless.

Definitely agree. Although these are very nice looking, for $70 I'll probably go with something else. The fact that they sell replacement bungee cords makes me question whether it will last.

The replacement cord I think is for the closing mechanism to the case. That would make sense I think.
I bought the case for my wife's nook based on the look, quality and yes protection of it. The nook is already covered with a skin from decalgirl.com and a screen protector, and using this cover does indeed offer some protection. No it's not a Seidio case, it's a case that is pretty much a wallet lol. But the protection I speak of is the protection of the screen from impact if something would happen to fall upon the screen.
But everyone has their opinion, which is fine, but why the hate. If you don't like it, move on. There are many other choices out there besides this if this doesn't float your boat.

Exactly. Never said there was anything wrong with buying it. Just saying that simply because it's 10x the price of all these others does not mean in any way that it's "Worth" 10x as much in protection or durability. So people acting like it is are only kidding themselves.

I was going to buy one instantly, then I saw that the tablet was held in by strings and elastic cords, and while its stunning on the outside, it looks cheap as **** when the cover opens. I wish they had a better looking system to secure the tablet, that's atrocious.

I kinda agree with you there, but I think of it as being able to use the same case in another 7" device down the road.

I've had a couple of their cases and trust, they're anything but cheap looking and feeling. I bought mine used from other forum members, so I paid half, but that's a QUALITY case. They don't charge those prices for nothing. They can charge that because it's a great case and there's a market for them. You won't pay it, fine. They are supposed to have an old world feel to them. The leather and wool on the inside is something.

If you watch the video on the Oberon website it shows that the tablet is held in quite securely in the case. Also they give you extra strings to close the latch so if you can go a year without having to replace it I'd consider that a non issue.
I'm interested in hearing any reviews for this case

I wouldn't care if it would be three times the cost of the device, I would definitely be buying that! :laugh:

No I don't belive cost = quality (far from it actually). Didn't mean to start anything but I do think a lot of thought went into these. The video was very informative about the design choices (which is what it always comes down to).
As far as protection my opinion is that as long as the cover is closed the edges of the leather will absorb more than most without transferring the shock to the tablet. If it falls with the cover open there is a greater chance of it breaking (just like the rest)

Bluetooth Keyboard Tablet Stand Leather Case, anyone got one?

Just saw this leather case, bluetooth keyboard with stand combo (i saw the 5 or 9 dollar case with the usb cable and hated the look, don't mind spending a few bucks extra)
anyone got experience with this one?
http://www.amazon.com/CrazyOnDigita...f-20&qid=1344477981&sr=1-114&keywords=nexus+7
that image they have is real tiny online so i can't see the details but i am digging the red/white one

I just got mine this morning. Connecting is easy. But the keyboard (as I expected) is very small. If you have dainty girl like hands, you will be OK. It will take some getting used too. I've noticed the back stand that props up the monitor is pretty flimsy as well. A very slight wind can knock it over.
The case will most certainly protect the screen if you toss your tablet in a backpack or in your luggage. It's more sturdy than I anticipated in that regard.
Considering the cost is low, it's easy to overlook the minor flaws I've found so far. I'd give it 4 of 5 stars.

Can you post a pic when u have a chance I want to buy one but prefer to see the actual thing than to base it on the stock photos thanks

FlyGrip a necessity?

I am surprised no one has posted about this as of yet.
QBKing77's youtube channel has a video review of this "contraption".
Currently there is a deal where you get a free TPU case (i think thats what it is called) with the purchase of a $30 FlyGrip.
He also mentions how you get a discount by using his name at the checkout.
I am almost convinced to get one, but would like your input on this.
Check out this video where he discusses the flygrip (somewhere in there).

Thanks for sharing, looks like a great idea
Not sure if it would add too much bulk
Pricing with shippingmmakes it quite expensive for us international buyers

I've been using it for about a week now, and haven't regretted that decision. It's definitely a must if you're using your N2 a lot with single hand. I'm still waiting for Aduro case to release their awesome kickstand case that they had for the GSIII:

Man that fly grips looks pretty cool anybody get one yet? Its kind of cool how the CEO makes his own youtube video and enter acts with the customers. I just ordered one yesterday and got my shipping confirmation today. I think it will be a great addition to the GN2.

I would love to hear from you! I need someone to convince me into getting this, its just that $30 doesnt seem to worth it...

I've been on the fence with this since i saw a video review of these a few weeks ago. I am horrible about ordering things online. I search the heck out of them and then never buy anything. I really like to see things in person.
I really like the idea though. Seems like it would really make the phone more comfortable for me. I have the flip cover and i usually have one finger between it and the back of my phone which gives me a pretty secure grip but after a few minutes my poor finger starts to feel smashed back there.
Maybe i should just break down and go for it. I could use the free case for testing the mod for using a tpu case with the flip cover.
So indecisive....

Too bad they had super expensive shipping to Sweden
Sent from a big Note 2

I got one. The guy is real easy to deal with. I had to swap mine from white to black since Tmobile had no white Note2s. He did it without issue. I carried my phone for a week w/o the clip and now about a week with the clip. I find its a nice bonus. I mostly use it when I'm relaxing and holding the phone at odd angles. Its great for that, very secure. In day to day use I don't really use it since my TPU case has really good grip already.

I had my phone for almost a week before I got my flygrip. In my opinion it makes the phone much easier to use one handed. I have maybe slightly above average hands and I can reach the whole screen easier with it. The stand feature is very nice too. I have mine on a body glove and feel extremely confident I have a very secure grip on my phone when using it. Weird angle gripping is much easier as well. I would recommend one for the GNII 100%
Regurgitated From My Giant Note II

What time curious about is how easy it is to transfer between cases or devices. I saw a video of somebody removing the FlyGrip and it looked to be some super adhesive material.
How resuable is it exactly?
Edit: Took a closer look and looks like you could grab a pack of 3 replacement adhesives. Was really excited for it despite the price since you could say it's justified with the TPU case throw in....but unfortunately the shipping code "QBKING77" is limited only to the States. Really disappointed since I'll have to pass just based on the shipping costs.
Sent from my GT-I9100M

I had one on my Sensation, and am awaiting new adhesive, but I LOVE my Flygrip. Thing is simply amazing. I didn't think that I would get 30 bucks worth out of thin cheap plastic, but I've been sorely tempted to pickup a second one for my tablet. Also, they have pretty good customer support, I've called three times, and it's always the same guy that answers. I actually prefer this to the kickstand cases because of the one handed grip support. I can't text on my bike without it, especially with this phone. I'll upload a couple pictures as soon as I get my sticky backs

I just took mine off of my Sensation, and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. It took some forcing to actually begin to remove it, as it is really pretty damn strong, but once I got it separated from the old case it was simple enough to just rub the remaining residue away. It does leave a very clean rectangle on whatever case you put it on after removal lol.

So emailed FlyGrip with some questions. Response was very quick, not to mention a nice surprise with the great customer service!
" .... Additional tape provided”, are there extra adhesive tapes in each FlyGrip package? Or that we would have to buy the pack of 3 if we were interested in replacements?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Flygrip comes with (1) extra adhesive. So after you remove it, you can put the new adhesive on.* "Some" people try using the existing adhesive.* It depends on how sticky it still is.* We recommend to use a new one, but sometimes the adhesive is sticky enough to reuse.* We sell (3) packs for $2.47.

Also, a shot in the dark but I'm wondering if you do happen to have any promotions going on for international shipping (namely to Canada) as the FlyGrip was something I was immediately excited for, only to see the cost of shipping.

I asked my manager. You can USE "INTL5" as a code, to receive $5 off shipping.

Looks great but $30 is a lot for what it is. I'll wait for the cheap eBay HK version

Love my FlyGrip. I enjoy knowing I'm not going to drop the phone, but I really purchased it because I'm an ex-EVO user and knew I'd miss the kickstand. I use it as a kickstand whenever the phone isn't in my pocket. Right now I'm using the free case that was included, but I'll take it off in a few weeks. I usually don't go for bold colors, but got the blue kickstand and a royal blue case. Nice looking.
He has lots of videos on the site to help with making a decision. Oh, no, it doesn't add bulk, it's only 1/4" deep. USA made and the packaging is very good looking, would make a great gift.

I think it's a smarter decision to look at these.

Much cheaper, and they look more versatile.

Finally! A Waterproof Case for the Note 2!

I kayak fish a lot, and I've started participating in tournaments which use a phone app for submitting a measuring board photo of your fish. So I've been using a dry bag style "case" for a while, but it's cumbersome and doesn't really protect the phone very well from impacts, which can easily happen in a kayak. Anyway, someone finally made a LifeProof-ish/Obex-ish case for the Note 2:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NTXWR2E/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I bought one and will post how well it works.
It has loop for you to attach a lanyard or strap -- I'll probably put one of the floating Pentax wrist straps that I have for my GoPros on it. Because the most waterproofed phone in the world isn't going to do you any good when it's lost at the bottom of the ocean.
I've been a long-time buyer of Seidio cases, but was VERY disappointed when they didn't make an Obex case for the Note 2 ("because of the S-pen"), but then made one for the Note 3. :silly:

Where's the review

Oops! Sorry! Thanks for the remind!
The case works PERFECTLY! Can't emphasize that enough. It's really easy to install it and use it, the touchscreen works very well, no leaks, the ports are relatively easy to access while also doing a great job of keeping water out. I've used it twice now fishing from a kayak, and it's really protected the phone well, while allowing full use of the camera as well as all other phone functions. Several people posted reviews on Amazon that the microphone doesn't work well, but I highly suspect that's because they don't have it lined up properly in the case because it works perfectly for me.
Just FYI, this is actually a "Redpepper" branded case rather than "EasyLife". If you Google "Redpepper Note 2" you may be able to find it for even cheaper than it is on Amazon.com. I'm not sweating it, though. The price I got on Amazon was already a fraction of a LifeProof case, and this is the only waterproof case I've found for our Note 2, anyway, so I don't mind rewarding them with a little extra just for that.

Here it is for less than half the price in case anyone else wants this case.

Ankway LG G4 Qi Circle Case review

I posted this on Amazon but I would like to share this with the people at XDA also.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0126P8U4Y?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
This is a great alternative to the official circle case from LG.
I have tested a few of the other ones available and this is the only one that checks all the marks.
It has Qi wireless charging.
It has NFC.
It auto activates whatever circle apps you have installed when you close it.
It auto turns the screen on and if you have swipe to unlock, it even unlocks your phone.
It actually closes all the way (this is huge as it is the first I have tried that does).
It adds almost no bulk to your device.
I can not say enough about this case. It just works as it should with no surprises.
If you compare this to the official LG Qi Circle Case, this one gives you everything that one does, and is much cheaper.
How much cheaper?
The official one is $59.99 + shipping and tax.
This one is $12.99 with free shipping and usually no tax.
Not counting shipping and tax this is a minimum of $47.00 cheaper.
And you get all the same functionality and looks.
The back of the case feels exactly like the smooth plastic LG backs.
The front and side has a almost cloth feel to them.
The side looks like it will hold up for a very long time and not crack like some of the cheaper ones.
The back fits perfectly where your original back would be.
It also has a lip on the side and some protection on the corners to prevent damage from small drops.
Overall I have no issues at all with this case and will probably buy a second one in a different color soon.
Easily a 5/5 product!
I will try and answer any questions you may have about this product.
Here is a video showing how it works and looks.

I just bought it on Amazon at your recommendation. Thanks I guess if I want to use Qi charging I just need to get LG Electronics WCP-300 Wireless Charging Pad for Qi Enabled Devices, is that about right?

Any Qi charging pad will work.
I have ones made by quite a few manufacturers..
The best ones I have used are made by Spigen and Choetech.
This is the Spigen one I have http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Charger-Spigen®-Charging-Premium/dp/B00UGIA0WY
This is a review I did of the Choetech one I have http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63171513&postcount=10
Any Qi charger made by a reputable manufacturer should work fine though.
I hope you enjoy your new case.

I got one of these based on your review, and your review is spot on. This is a fantastic case at double the price! Also 5/5 from me.

I am glad you are enjoying your new case.

I guess I just hate circle cases. It's my first circle case of any kind. I felt it added no protection, especially for the camera. I also didn't like the flap cover, just feels cumbersome and flimsy to me. That said, the wireless charging is great. I stripped out the sticker and installed it onto my original back and love it. The case worked like it was supposed to and if I were to use a circle case I'd probably pick this one based on functionality alone. The cover stays closed, charges great, works like it is supposed to.

About 60% of the speed of a plug in style charger.
I charge my phone on the Spigen Qi charger overnight and just use the other Qi chargers during the day to keep my phone topped off so I never run out of battery.

Saw that ankway is having a flash sale on this case.
It is only active for a few more hours but I figured I would let you all know just in case you can catch it.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0126P8UA8..._m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0PMDVZ0VQYK621DMPJ2K
Discounts it down to $9.86

Anybody know where to buy this case in Europe?

...any chance I could rip the stupid door off and use it with a real case?

I bought the same case. I've had mine for about a month. The Qi charging pad seems a little too thick, it causes the case to stick up a little bit below the volume down button . Also, the bottom left (from the front) of the case is cracked from a 3-4 foot drop. I still really like the case and would have no problem at all spending the $12-$14 on another one.
