I just got a case/cover for my ZTC. As the title suggested, this is from INVENTCASE. Let's take a look at this.
I got mine from eBay
http://www.ebay.com/itm/361112178753?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&var=630453642867&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
This is a synthetic leather, not a genuine (according to them). The material feels nice.

This thing came with a magnet so it is a smart cover.. in a way. It will turn the screen on once you flip it open.
You got a cut out for the speaker at the bottom.
and top.
Cut out for Power/Volume buttons.
and for USB port.
Stand position.
One BIG cons for this cover is that the fitting is kinda loose so the cut out hole for camera won't align.
You can push it a little to make them align but it will slide back to the original position.
This will cause vignetting when you use a camera.
If you adjust your tablet the vignette will reduce but not goes away. Hugh downside for me.
So.. what's your opinion? For me I like this one especially the color. The camera problem, however, keep me looking for another case. Until I found the perfect one for me, this will stay on my tablet.
Thank yo ufor the photos and review. I personally do not opt for any case with bezels around, THat's like 10 years old design...
Yep, I personally don't like that either but I used to use the cheapo case with the mounting like the official Sony cover and it scratch my iPad.
So when I browse for the cover with some new color (I don't like the sony cover color choices) on ebay there are only some Chinese cheapo. I try to stay away from that.

Cheap design but thanks for the review. You should review the official Sony cover. http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/products/accessories/style-cover-stand-scr28/

iPads are just very easy to scratch because of material used, while I don't beleive that the Z3TC can be scratched that easily. Moreover, good cases have the soft materials inside the case.

Got one of these recently and it's really nice for the price. Fits well and seems well made. Magnetic clasp and cutouts for the cameras etc. Currently £13.95 at mobilefun.co.uk.

I nearly bought one of these myself Paul but instead went for the Samsung Executive Case....... and I'm not happy with it.
Like the case you kindly mention I don't like the leather surrounding the glass surface. Much prefer the case where you 'click' the Tab into place rather than slide it in.
Any idea's which would be a good case?
I've only used the one above and (for a short while) the official Samsung case. Not the executive one though. It was the sleeve variant. I really didn't like it. Very hard to get the device in and out of as it was so tight. I'm happy with the one I got, though may try a TPU style cover at some point.

Yes I have the same issue with the Samsung Executive case, it's a right pain inserting and taking out of the case.
That looks very like the red one I recently got
http://www.londonmagicstore.co.uk/L...llet+Leather+Case+for+Samsung+Galaxy+Tab.html
Good case, but it does have tendency to let the tab slip out of the top if held upside down (while taking out of a bag, for example)

Hi Jon (hey we're neighbours ). That does look very like mine, apart from the colour. I've not had the problem with it slipping, it's a snug fit. Unlike the official case, which was a strangulated fit .
I see we also share the same taste in where you purchased it too.
I obtained my Samsung Executive case from LondonMagicStore.
Excellent service from them, have purchased quite a few items in the past and have their Black Gel Case Cover Stand on order as well.

I purchased this case for £6.95 form AMazon yesterday and it came today. I wanted a thin case that offers as much protection as it could, and I believe this is that case. THis case is listed as $35 on thier website, I just wanted to say I dont think that it is worth that much.
The case has a hard, plastic structure with a layer of Brushed Aluminum on the back. This gives it a cool touch and a very nice texture. All cutouts are very well aligned and I have had no issues with audio or pressing the volume or power buttons. The pogo pins are also exposed which is nice as this is the only case I know where they have allowed them to be open. Overall the case is very good very slim and offers quite a lot of protection.
THe negatives come in the way of the design though. The huge poetic logo on the back of the case (see images) may put some people off as well as the bottom and top silver plastic being exposed on the device. Also the case is not that grippy to hold. Meaning it is very slippy to hold and may fall out of your hand.
Great case at a great price.

Here's my video:
Great review man... does it provide any protection to the front? What I mean is if you put the nexus face down does the glass touch the surface at all?
Thanks for putting up the review. That has got to be one ugly case though. I want my branding to be mostly invisible. That one screams LOOK AT ME!!!!! :silly:
Just recently got my nexus and I've been looking for a new case. I just recently dropped my nexus on concrete and the top right corner the I guess bezel or the silver gray material came off. Am wonder ok by if this case would provide decent protection against such a fall

Lol Im not a fan of the branding, but the case feels really nice in the hand
This one seems to offer good protection, a hard shell inside a book style casing. No mention of a magnet.

"5.0 out of 5 stars Fits well and good value 28 Dec 2012
By Brent46
Colour Name:Black|Amazon Verified Purchase
Arrived early an looked very nice. Applied screen proector (always difficult on big Screens) one of the better protectors I have used, Fitted Nexus very well and all charging an buttons accesible. Turns device on an off as you open and close. Very happy with for £5 I paid"
Bit annoying that he only paid £5 for it when they're now £12 but even at that it's not a bad price.
It just seems like another of a million already available cases. All these dealextreme/ebay cases all look the same to me, and a case is a case, they're all plastic, and they will prevent scratching the screen, that's about it.
I've fallen for this one

Nillkin case
Not the cheapest, but it seems a good finish, tight and clean all around

Does this mean you already have that case? If so, what do you think of the pleather quality wise?

I posted the original link because I saw a case that took two properties of common cases that are not found together anywhere else, the book style cover enclosing the hard plastic shell. It's too bulky for my use but that doesn't mean it's not going to appeal to someone else, it deserved a link for that reason.
Hi guys.
Case is around $18 dollars on Ebay or Amazon. Other colors available.
I like that:
It doesn't cover the bezel.
Looks nice when closed.
Price
Smart wake up/sleep is flawless
I don't like:
The magnets color (to secure lid when closed, see Pic #8 & #9)
Buttons are difficult to press.
Quality is not as good as high end Chinese cases(Like Nillkin, see *A*)

*A* Here is a Review of a Nillkin tablet case, there isn't one for the N10.
Would I buy it again? Yes; But only because there isn't a high end version right now.

I've got the Poetic Slimline also. Except it looks a little better with the Android on it

where did you get the sticker?
I find this to be an OK case, mostly due to a lack of options. The buttons art hard to access with this case. Even though it has an iPad like trifold deign, it doesn't seem to stand up real well. The nexus seems to not like being used in the upside down landscape position either. It always re- orients itself, and I have to pick it up to get it to go back.

good points.
I got tired of trying to find the buttons so I just cut the part that covered the buttons (the bridge).
yep the nexus and the launcher think that they are up side down, so i am trying to use the case upside down, but sometimes it falls.
still waiting for the Nillkin to be released
I picked up the Supcase armband case from Amazon since it has openings for all the features of the phone so you can still use it during a workout (Camera, audio jack, spen, fingerprint reader). The case material is a very thin flexible rubber but when put onto the phone actually feels pretty solid with a good fit. Due to how light this phone is, when attached to your arm it does not bounce around much at all though I thought it might initially. The strap loops through a slot in the back of the rubber case which could be a point of failure, but that doesn't seem to be much of an issue if the strap is tight enough since it really doesn't bounce around. Time will tell about the durability. I intend to mostly use it for biking so bouncing around is not as much of a concern than it would be for running (it really doesn't move much at all). I'll update after I give it a few rounds of use. Attached are pics.

My wife has this case for her LG G4. She like it a lot as it seems to be very reliable when she goes running everyday. She also likes the fact that you can use it as a case without the strap. She has the pink one.

Yeah forgot to mention that part but I'm probably going to stick to my other case for daily driver purposes. I grabbed this one since you can still use the fingerprint reader and I heard those other ones with the plastic film over the screen limit it's usage.

That's true. I had a few from amazon that hindered the scanner's use. Only case I found that doesn't but does have a protector is from Supcase that's also water resistant(not waterproof).
I love this armband. Just enough opening find fingerprint
