Bluetooth Aluminum Keyboard Case/Stand - Similar to Logitech Keyboard Case for iPad

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI...sPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en#ht_2264wt_1037
As the title suggests, it looks similar to the Keyboard Case offering that Logitech have for the iPads. So what's everyone's take on it? Looks pretty functional in terms of the keyboard, but in terms of a case, I wonder how practical it is.

Nice find I have been looking for this.
Thanks!

similar found for UK
Found a similar one on the UK amazon site called IVSO wireless bluetooth keyboard case for Google Nexus 7 Tablet (BLACK Keys) (by Gambolex). Has anyone used it yet? Just worry that the keys will come into contact with the screen as it did a similar case I had for my Vega. Size-wise it looks like a 7" folding PU leather keyboard case for my wayteq xpad. Took a while to get used to but seemed pretty good

This is actually pretty awesome and reasonably priced. I may have to pick one of these up

wow that actually looks really nice! does the tablet "snap" into the keyboard when its being used as a keyboard (as opposed to snapping on as a case)? that is my only concern, having it slide off the keyboard and falling unprotected to the ground lol

Theirs a new case out it has the tab key now its perfect still no hinge :laugh:

I'm typing this message on one now. Very impressed with the quality. Size is going to take some timeto get used to though, but what else to expect from a 7 inch keyboard. The nexus just sits in the slot, feels quite sturdy but there's no clipping. Case clips over the nexus well, but wouldn't survive a drop.

i am typing on mine and very happy with it.
idea for manufacturer though....
i am sure that not all available space under the cover is taken by the battery and that there must be some added weight to keep it steady with tablet in the slot.
why not use all of the space for a heavy duty battery (heavy in weight as well) and put some pogo pins in the slot to top-up N7 battery

Which one? The one i see in Amazon all does not have Tab key.

Read the reviews there. You'll see them mention that the keyboard layout has changed and now has a tab key.

My IVSO keyboard arrived today. It took 7 days to arrive in Ireland from date of order (via Amazon). Keyboard feels solid. Looks good in use and when stored in the case. When I placed the order the photos of keyboard showed that there was no tab key, see (sorry, but cannot add links as I am a new member). HOWEVER the one that arrived has a tab key above the enlarged 'Q' key (along the same line as the number keys). I have attached some photos here. Apologies if I don't have the orientation right. Have been using it for a few hours now and it feels as good as the much more expensive keyboard I bought for my work IPAD (about euro90). The keys are a little crowded and I am hitting the wrong key sometimes, but in fact no more than I do as a hunter and pecker on a full scale keyboard.
I also took the opportunity when ordering to buy the IVSO OTG host cable (which with the Nexus Media Importer app) allowed me to connect a 16GB USB stick to the Nexus 7. I could open photos, videos and play music I have been told to be careful when order the cable as not all will work with the Nexus. I tried attaching a USB 1TB drive but as expected it did not show up as an available device. Am on the look out for a good 64GB or 128GB USB stick and when I locate one, I will try it out on the Nexus like the 16GB one. The OTG connection is a little bit wonky and loose. It doesn't feel 100% secure, but having said it has not fallen out yet. But it wouldn't take much to knock it out I think. Yet, for the price, it opens up a whole new way of increasing the (derivative) memory of the Nexus 7 and that is a great thing.
I think the key board and cable are great accessories, and I am using the keyboard to write this message with few mistakes for a hunter and pecker.
Also, if anyone is looking to convert their bose sound dock to a bluetooth device, check out the I-Wave device (again, sorry but I cannot add hyperlinks) which also arrived today and allows me to stream via bluetooth from the Nexus to my bose sounddock. So far, so good and if it continues to work out, then it will have saved me 100's of euros buying a specially made wireless/bluetooth bose speaker (there are videos on you tube showing a bloke demonstrating its versatility).

Just sent PM. The company supplier is Gambolex in China. My Amazon order page (for the delivered good) is saying it is now out of stock. When I ordered stock was low. But might be worth contacting them direct?

I have one as well with a tab button. My keys are extremely small... I like it as a case but it's not a great keyboard for me... Great to watch movies and play video games on while it's in typing position though...

VR Headset

Hey guys,
any of you using a VR headset with this phone? What's your option?
I myself like the Zeiss VR One GX, but unfortunately they don't have a drawer for Nexus 5X. Maybe in the future. Meanwhile I'm looking to some bluetooth controlled headset.

Amazon for the headset. Lightweight ear buds priced from $16 USD to close to $100

Would you know if Nexus 5X will be eligible for Google's VR solution, Daydream?

I would say no, because Google has very specific ideas of smartphone displays response time. The LCD ISP probably won't be good enough.
That said, it doesn't mean the 5X can't handle VR.
I asked a similar question in the "Android N Preview" thread, and someone replied stating that the N Preview 3 has greatly boosted his VR Experience on his 5X.
I guess the 5X just won't get official Support for Daydream.

Note 8 vr headset compatibility

Hello
I purchased on eBay a samsung vr headset and the seller said that it was compatible with the note 8 in his description
I've just noticed on the box it only shows up to the s8 plus
I still haven't received the headset as it's on its way but want to check it will work before I open the box
Thanks

Though it is compatible, it will not be a good fit, the model number you brought is SM-R324. the model that will have a much better fit for the note 8 is the SM-R325 (SM-R325NZVAXAR to be precise)

There's a special adapter you can buy from samsung that has an extra space in the USB type C connector that will allow it to fit snugly. I on the other hand once I got a hold of of my gear vr (2016 version) having no idea it was going to be a thing took matters into my own hands (this was near Xmas and the part was going to take a month to ship) I took a not so subtle approach and heated up a pair of boxcutters over the gas burner on my oven and just trimmed away until it fit lol. For it to stay in I need to just use one good piece of either black electrical tape (preferred) or duct tape(REALLY let's the ghettoness shine through lol). Stays firmly in place all things considered, and despite the gaps/holes in plastic no light gets thru them whatsoever. To each their own I guess lol.

Brilliant cheers people I'll send it back for a refund

The cheap ones have been tested multiple times, they're not up to the quality of the originals and sound crap, avoid them. Go for any other popular set from Amazon.

Wait a sec. The ones that came with the note 9 are sold for $100 by Samsung? Lol

There are tons of excellent fakes too these days. They look exactly the same but cost a fraction and are inferior quality. Buyer should beware if the price is too good to be true...

Exactly.

With Samsung audio tuner, you can make pretty much any headphone sound great. I like BT phasor brand quite a bit with Samsung. Search on Amazon.

Not true at all. A crap pair of headphones will sound crap whatever you do with the Samsung settings, software cannot make up for crap hardware. The drivers cannot physically reproduce sound like a higher quality pair of headphones.

If you look on eBay, you can find people selling the box with all the original accessories brand new. Usually around $40-50. It's worth it to replace your earbuds and have an extra charger and cable. And you can look for a box from the S8, S8+, S9, S9+, Note 8, or Note 9, since they haven't changed the accessories since then.
Actually the wall charger from the S7 and S7 Edge are the same too, they're just white instead of black. Same specs though.

Doesn't surprise me. I wasn't sure when Samsung implemented the fast chargers. I had a Note II and a Galaxy S3, but went back to Nexus until the S7 Edge, so that was the first Samsung fast charger I had. I just checked the specs the other day to confirm they were the same.

They're still using the same standard fast charge since then. All other brands have gone miles ahead in regards to fast charging.

They probably are legit. As some people will probably sell them when they get their new device and use their own headsets rather than the ones included with their new device. Also some retailers maybe selling the bulk purchased versions, which they got from a factory outlet. Which are also legit.

USB C Audio-Jack Adaptor?

Overlooked this when buying the tablet, supprised there was no adaptor included. Are they assuming all the buyers are S10 users?
Anyway, will any adaptor work or does it have to be one from Samsung?

The adaptor has to have a dac built in or it will not work with the tablet same with the note 10

The Note 10 dongle has a DAC built in. It should work for the tab s6. I have one ordered right now.

I have USB C audio adapter from Huawei Mate 20 Pro, but when i connect it to the tablet, a message appears that the usb device is not supported.

I have S5e, but it should apply S6
I have few different USB C headset adapter for Pixel and HTC U11 Life, both work as it's supposed to

As much as I hate to say it, the cheap Apple one is one of the best you can get unless you're willing to spend quite a bit more. Did a bunch of reading after I ordered my Note 10+, tests put the Apple one ahead of the Google ones and plenty of others that cost 5 times as much as the Apple one. Works well, but as with all things Apple the cable is going to fray within a year. I added a silicone stress relief that covered the entire cable since I had a bag of them, maybe it'll last two years.

have 2 of those
none are working with korean LTE S6
any idea why?
thanks

Oddly enough, the Middle eastern versions (and most probably Europeans) got a type C headphones in the box, i myself bought from Bahrain and we got a type C headphones, albeit the cheap kind but hey it works

USB C connector has analog headphone connection
They are switched in with some sense ID magic, but there is left, right, and microphone analog wires. You can find the details in a search.
Any cheap (non-DAC) headphone adapter should work as it is just the right wiring and maybe a few resistors on the right pins. I have one that works.

I purchased 2 and both make hissing soumd, One was noname, the other Baesus make both ****.
