Yoobao Leather Case

I really like the Yoobao leather case on my Nexus 7. It was a really tight fit and maintained the low slim profile. The leather was real, good quality, and fitted like a glove. I would love to have one for my Nexus 10. So I emailed Kevikev, the source of all things Yoobao, today, who got back immediately to say Yoobao are making a case for the 10, although he did not have a release date as yet. Good news.
here are some links to N7 and iPad/ other Android tabs pics for reference:

This is the same as the Moko Ultra Slim case that's on Amazon. They don't seem to have it in white, though.
EDIT: Excuse my morning grogginess, this isn't the same as the Moko. It does look similar to the Poetic Slimline, though. But where is the document sleeve the description mentions?

The same "model", but knowing Yoobao, this should be a very good quality materials case - genuine leather maybe, and more expensive of course. That is why i already have 2 case (poetic and moko-like) but I want this one.

Looks nice... Even seems to include a document pocket...
Anyone brave enough to order from that sight? I wish they had the black one...

DefinityX,
I wouldn't do that. After getting rates for delivery to Russia (3 variants - one free and two dhl/ems fro approximately 25 usd, but i couldn't chose any of it) I decided to see what will happen in case of checking out. After choosing paypal i was asked for payment, but since i was not able to chose the delivery, i believe it is toy fake.

Not surprised... Glad I asked...
Shame though. Maybe a more reputable seller will stock them *cough*Amazon*cough*...

I think we will have to wait till the end of chinese new year

OK. It has finnally appeared on ebay and I bought one
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=261178402054&ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:U:US:3160
Will post some pics and may be kind of review when it will arrive to me. (I would not hope that will happend earlier than ~40 days though >.<)

So what do you think of the case you bought on eBay? This looks to be exactly what I'm looking for, at least until Melkco makes a Slimme for my N10...

Also, does the Yoobao have magnetic closure?

Samsung S4 Active

What are your thoughts? Damn nice looking phone if this is in fact leakes pics of the Active. http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s4-active#comment-603498 What do you think?

not leaked photos, it was shown off at a cell phone convention in croatia

OK, not a leak per se, but pics nor info not released abroad by Samsung as of yet . So, what do you think? thoughts? I feel that this is what the regular S4 should have been....maybe with color choices.

I would be surprised if this comes to the U.S.

I would have loved to have this color on a normal S4. :/

I've looked at those, but I'd like there to not be any any bulk to the phone. Right now i'm just rocking it naked with invisibleshield on the front and back, this has been the first time I could use a smartphone and feel like it's not too fragile to set on the table without a scratch getting on it. :good: If anything it would be awesome if there were replaceable backcovers in different colors, but i have yet to see anything.

There are some. Check out the accessories thread. There are leather ones and carbon fiber that I ha e seen so far. That's one benefit of this phone, we will probably have the most accessories next to maybe the iPhone.

My initial thoughts are the phone looks nice but don't like the physical buttons. Also, doubt that just because it has that coating on the phone the screen won't crack if dropped on concrete. In my mind having a good case is the only way to prevent certain things from happening and if I'm going to use a case then what is the point of a "rugged" phone.
This is just me and I understand others have different needs but that is my opinion on it.

I miss the days of my old Nokia 8260 when replacing housings were common. You dropped your phone, $10 and a few days later you had a new housing that was four screws away from making your phone like new. I suppose a tempered glass cover and tpu cover and replaceable battery covers are about as minimalist with good coverage as you can get. And many of the 3rd party battery covers are two piece anyway with the plastic base and the insert that goes on it. So you get a little extra protection there as well.

not a big fan of those menu buttons. Phone looks nice. Samsung should have saved their fitness bloat for that phone. Up High :highfive:

Cases for Second Gen Nexus 7

Just picked up my Second gen Nexus 7 and I'm sure quite a few more of you will be picking one up soon as well. So, I wanted to start this thread so anyone with info on cases available for the me models can share it, and we can keep track of them in one place. So far I've only seen the official sleeve in the Google Play store, but I'm assuming it won't be available until the 30th or later.
Created this thread on mobile, I'll make it nicer later when on my computer.
If anyone has any info on upcoming cases for the new Nexus 7, or even any cases meant for other devices that still fit this tablet well, please share! Thanks!

There are a few on Amazon that show 8/15 availability.

Got my 2nd gen today too and really need a case so thanks for starting this thread!

How about this car case for new Nexus 7, anyone wanna try?
http://www.wanpool.com/prod-Tablet_Car_Mount-TFY3_Headrest_Mount-New_Nexus_7/item343.html

I require a case that works in both landscape and portrait mode. I have tried a few cases. The only one available that I like is the Solo case. They make a 360 degree 7" case and a landscape only universal case. The case comes in two colors; gray and black. I prefer the gray case. It is a little large and thick but it holds the device without blocking any buttons. It is the best rotating case I have found. It is much better than the smaller M-Edge case which I returned.

I have the Moko slim smart case for my Nexus 7 2013 and I love it. Can't beat $7 on amazon.com for a solid smart case that has a ha d strap, works in both landscape/portrait modes, and has the smart feature built in. Just my two cents

This is a great pouch for our Nexus 7 and it's what I use. Anyway it's on sale until the 16th but you'll have to act fast if you want it since only seven are available

I've recently bought this cover, which is pretty nice. The headphone input and side buttons of the device are covered up by the elastic straps holding it in, but it's a minor inconvenience to me. There is also this version that I'd considered, but felt the Seal would catch on everything.
It came in the mail quite quick too. Just in time for the 50th special.

Pebble on leather strap and NATO

Swapped the stock rubber for leather, then changed to NATO.

I think something is wrong with it. I clicked on it when you first posted and since then it's been saying that's still processing the video. I think it may be a bad upload. I would really like to see it though because I'm looking for a replacement band.
Edit: Nvm, it's working now. Would you be able to put on the watch with the leather/NATO strap? I'm curious to see how it looks on the wrist. Also, do you think the NATO strap makes it seem cheap compared to using a leather/metal band?

It's up now. I had to change the file and upload it again.

Now I want to change a rubber strap on my pebble. I think, I will buy nylon watch strap. I found 2 models of nylons straps: NATO and ZULU. Who already have these straps? Your suggestions what strap to select and where?

Thanks Just about to receive my NATO strap today. Saw your post just in time! I got a black one for my black pebble but now that I've seen your video I think the grey one looks cooler.

I did not know what width of a strap I should take for my black pebble, but today I found very good article about nato straps for smart watches. Here you can find it: http://blog.tafstyle.com/nato-straps-for-smart-watches
From this pot I understand, that I need to order 22 mm width nato strap. Now the problem is to choose color.

Black is absolutely okay I just meant that the grey one with black buckles looked cooler in the video.
I'm using a black one with chrome/silver buckles and it looks good too!

While I've read it's 22mm, I've also read that finding an appropriate band will be difficult since it needs to meet up nicely with the chrome portion. Any way to verify what will work and what won't?

Im guessing it will be similar to the other gears. Check out their sections, plenty of people have changed the band. A nice wide metal one seems to work well.

I just got a plain black leather one in anticipation. I'll let you know if it works when I get my watch.

I got 2 silicone straps from Amazon. Both under $20. One with a fitted clasp, other "normal" style. So I'll honestly just use whichever fits better. Since there appears to be issues with that.
If they both fit, I'll just choose the better looking one. Hahaha

Both are pretty ugly, maybe a black or silver metal band would work better.
Here are some I found on Amazon.

they're not ugly, personally i've never been a fan of rubber straps. but the point is to get something you like! thanks for sharing the pictures.
like i feel the metal bands on this watch look odd since the metal doesn't match the metal that's in the face.
if anyone has attached leather straps if they could post a picture, especially of where the strap meets the watch to see how well/not well it merges with the watch face i would appreciate it.
