Folding smartcover like ipad

Im looking for a folding case similar to the ones for an ipad.
Has anyone seen any of these?

Me too! But from what I've seen, there's nothing similar...I'm not liking ANY of the cases available for the Nexus 7 right now...all seem too bulky and just doesn't go with the whole tablet...

I don't like it when they have something covering the front bezel as it gets in the way, especially with a smaller tablet.

The smart cover with a cover for the back is exactly what I'm looking for.

I'd say there's probably pretty huge demand for this among N7 buyers. One of the big draws for a 7" tablet is portability compared to a 10". I can fit the thing in my pants pocket or my inner coat pocket with ease and no real additional bulk. These huge covers currently on sale seriously take away from that.

I'd glady pay $25-40 for a tpu case with a folding smart cover that can be used as a stand as well. It would be thin, give protection on all sides & turn screen off automatically.
I agree the market is there for something like this, with the sales through the roof of the N7 I do think we will see alot of quality cases soon.

+1, we know the market is there, it just seems the manufacturers don't or they'd be making them....everything is some hefty duty thick ugly cover up your entire device type of case....

I think we'll start seeing cases like that in Middle/Late August or September. Most of the nicer cases that are made specifically for the Nexus won't come out until later.

I would love to have something like the Apple Smart Cover with Android Robot in GREEN!!!

I would like one too. Almost all cases for Nexus 7 that I have seen just makes the device bulkier.

I'd love a smart cover like the one for iPad's. I use a carbon fibre sticker on the back of my iPad to protect it and with the smart cover for the front, it hardly adds to the thickness. Currently using a playbook case (until the case I ordered comes in) and it definitely adds bulk.

looking for the same

Same here. I want something thin and foldable that's not cheap leather crap.

I have the Amazon Kindle Fire Tuxedo Slim Case:

There most definitely is an exposed corner. Shows it right on that Amazon link.
I think it's a nice looking, quality TPU case, but that open corner puts me off.

Glad I didn't get yellow... I kidd!!

Nice 1 there...thinking of getting 1 too..but havent decided on the color..mine is the white version..any suggestions besided white @ black?..thanx for the review..

Here is how blue colour of this case looks on the white phone.
The front and one of the back images are taken with flash which kinda screws up the colour, last picture is how it looks in reality.
Frankly in person this case looks quality premium case. It feels nice in hands. I first got Mercury case for my original Note 1 and since then I was waiting for them to launch it for Note II. They have now become my go to manufacturers for cases for all my phones.

Do you think that white color case would get stained after a few months of use much like other TPU cases? Is there any way to order these without that antenna cut-out on the left side? It offers no scratch/drop protection on that corner.

beware, there are many fakes, if you are getting them from ebay, stay away from sellers from hong kong and china, may be other countries as well.
seller from korea are a safe bet, but cannot be too sure.

I have this case in pink and even though that corner is exposed it is a good case mines is tight and it isn't slippery in my hand.

can you show me the under side with the stick, then I can be 100% sure.

I got three of these...light blue, black and white. they look great and fit great. I think they are the nicest looking cases I've had in any of my phones. so yeah, i'm stoked. specially for the light blue. great shade.
if anyone wants pics let me know. I thought of doing a review but then realized this was already up. no sense wasting time.

Arg this thing is so damn slippery. One of the main reasons I got a case was the phone was always slippery (although I tend to be a little more oily than most).
I loved the Incipio Feather on my iPhone. Slightly grippy. I like the protection and have contemplated going to something like the Rearth Slim because I love the slim cases, but would hate to see what happens in a drop. I did drop my iPhone twice while in the feather and the feather took the brunt of the damage, which was great.

Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit & Clone Army TPU Cases [Picture Heavy]

Hey everyone, I just got these awesome Bugdroid Circuit & Clone Army cases from Cruzerlite and wanted to share some pictures with you guys. It's been out for Nexus 4 for awhile but finally available for Galaxy Note 2 since last week. Pricing at $12.90 each and Buy 2 Get 1 Free Deal.
Cruzerlite - Clone Army
Cruzerlite - Bugdroid Circuit
As always, Cruzerlite cases provide pretty decent protection, perfect cut-outs for all the ports. Case has thick lips that comes up around the screen so it will cause issues for people with full edge to edge screen protector/film. I have SGP Ultra Crystal and no issues with it.

These look really nice. I'm a huge believer in Cruzerlite. I always have an androidified case on all my devices. Gonna check these out. Thanks for posting the nice pics.

I agree.. Always used their cases and these new ones look great.. Thank you for posting..

Are the lips stretchable? Thats what i hate about TPUs the sides, bottom and top are flimsy.

Cruzerlite is actually one of the firm Tpu cases I've tried.. They hold nicely not flimsy at all..

Top and bottom are held pretty firm but the sides does seem easily pulled away. Don't get me wrong it still does hold the device in very secure and sides won't flap around or anything. It's not like bodyglove refined gel case, edges are much more firm and thicker to hold the shape.

good lookin zen0s, I've been looking at the bugdroid cases and trying to decide on color. I'm a Cruzerlite owner as well. I have the androidified clear on my white gn2 and love it. It's definitely cruzerlite from here on out. Going to grab the buy 2 get 1 while it's still going been eyeing the deal for sine time but can't decide. 2 bugdroids and an army clone or 2 bugdroids and another androidified... choices choices choices.

Has anyone preorder the XDA edition cruzerlite case?
☆Sent from my Cocaine White N2☆

not real happy with mine at all... i got the white one... and the quality is great but for some reason the design part on the back was made from some matte textured material that will pick up stains way too easy and wont wash off.... typical tpu (and the surrounding part of this case) is almost impossible to get stained and wipes right off if it does. had mine for a week and already mine looks like dirty crap. so if u get one.... dont get a white one. wish i could get that green one to replace mine. cuz i love the andy designs.

Added a minimalist dbrand skin on my 5x

This was my first time ever applying a phone skin. I got this one from dbrand. All I bought was a white backing piece, black nexus letters, and the colored nexus X. It cost about $12. My order arrived about 4-5 business days after I submitted it (mailed from Toronto). The backside of my phone is naturally white, so it is a white skin on a white backing. It took about 30 minutes, with the most difficult part being getting the letters and the colors of the nexus X to go into the cutout of the white backing. Overall I'm pretty happy with the results. I'm a little worried about the colored x parts staying in, but we'll see how they hold up. If you casually glanced at the backing you would not realize it is not part of the phone. Once you start focusing intently and looking at it from 8 inches away you can discern pretty clearly that the letters are stickers.

Looks good! I'd have to meditate for half an hour to steady my hands before I tried to install one lol.

Dope! Makes me want to keep my 5x and get rid of the 6P.

Can you comment on how it's been? Is it slippery? I've read that it picks up lint easily from pockets as well.

I have not found it to be any more slippery than the naked back of the phone. In fact it might be a little more grippy than the natural back, which I found to be a little slippery.
I can't comment on lint. Have not seen any lint picked up, but I have a TPU case over the skin now, and it sits on my desk for most of the day.
I put a nilken clear TPU case on the phone. I will take a picture and upload later. Really happy with the case & skin combo. You can easily read the "nexus" lettering through the phone case and I've had a few people ask about it. I can lay it face down with the case on and enjoy the skin.
Also handed my phone to someone who had an iPhone 4 and he said that the nexus was one of the smoothest functioning phones he had ever used. Granted he's comparing versus a older iPhone, but I took it as a positive.

I suppose it's got to be pretty hard to capture the texture in the photo without a great macro lens, but would you say the feel is better than before? I keep having this bad feeling that the white of the back is going to get really dirty and want to cover it up.

With the skin on, the phone has more grip to it (my subjective opinion). I thought the original back felt a bit slippery and wasn't the best quality (previous phone was an HTC One), so adding the skin made the feel better for me.
I'm not sure about dirt. The dbrand site says they use 3M vinyl, which is also used to wrap cars, so I'd assume the vinyl is designed to resist dirt and staining, but that's only a guess.

I would definitely get a case for this

Went into a tmobile store to see their demo blue coral and noticed a lot of scuff marks on the bottom rear of the phone. I can only assume they've only had this for a a week and it's already this bad. SMH. They are definitely scratches. I tried rubbing it off and ran my nails through it. Rough AF.

Anyone that doesn't immediately get a case for a glass phone, gets what they deserve.

Maybe that's how they made gorilla glass 5 more durable to drops by making it softer. But now more susceptible to scratches.

Speaking of cases, what is everyone planning on getting? I got a cheap Supcase Bettle unicorn, frosted case to begin with. I'll probably get a Spigen Neo hybrid later on.

I'm not going with a case... Toast said they'll have wooden skins ready by the end of the month, so that's what I'm going for.
Maybe leather if they make one. But not metal or plastic.

Ok, looking at that...you convinced me not to use a typical case. What devices have you used this for? How does it protect against drops? I am not one of those who will beat down on their devices but sometimes I do forget it is on my lap while at movie theaters and it will drop....or stepping down from cars. Does it cover all the edges? Looking at the pictures on their websites I can't tell....give me the skinny!

The very edges are slightly visible, but the corners are covered. The sides of the phone are also covered, and they include wooden button caps and camera lens covers. The front isn't covered unless you spend the $10 for a front cover, but if you do then of course the capacitive buttons and fingerprint scanner are left uncovered. The wood isn't thick enough to interfere with usage, thankfully, but it is the thickest and highest quality wood cover I've seen.
I don't have any phones that they make skins for, but I've visited their "factory" in Portland and handled several iPhones and Android phones with their skins attached. They're really nice and high quality, better than similar skins I own for other products.
Take a look at this video for a typical phone installation:
As you can see, nice and easy - just be careful about it, and go slow. It will re-adhere if you mess it up, but the first application is always the strongest by far, and you don't want those edges coming up.
E: I should clarify that you can re-apply in the first 5-10 minutes, but after that the adhesive is 'set' and will not be reusable. It's really strong adhesive, so it isn't going anywhere, but it also does have an oxygen-activated cure.

Skins are a thick sticker and protect as such. They are no replacement for a good case.

Agreed. A skin, even a wooden one, is not a case. They don't offer shatter protection - merely scratch protection. In this case they also make the phone look nicer in my opinion :good:

I would like to mention a small local company. They haven't put out a note 7 case yet. They offer several cases made out of exotic wood, and they look fan-****ing-tastic.

That why i scoff at people that say you dont need a case because either its going to be easier to scratch or easier to shatter.

This exactly. There is a trade off of hardness to toughness. Hardness is what prevents scratching but the harder you make it, the more shatter prone so in essence you lower the toughness
