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...

Samsung HDTV adapter Question

I bought this HDTV adapter on ebay that says it works for the Sprint Galaxy Note 2 which it does. Unfortunately it does not work on my Sprint Galaxy s3.
I thought they used the same adapter. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=121005082603

Very strange, I thought they were the same as well.
blog.clove.co.uk/2012/09/29/samsung-galaxy-note-ii-uses-s3-hdmi-adapter/
Have you tried on a different s3 or with a different cable?

I have only tried with 1 gs3 but differ cords. Cant figure out why it works with my sprint note2 but not my sprint gs3. I even did a factory reset on my gs3

Sgs3 uses a 6 pin adapter the note 2 uses 8pin physical size is same just more pins inside

Thanks for the info and I believe you from experience but why do all blogs say it fits both. It even says galaxy s3 on the adapter box

I heard the same, but usually it's a problem when on a dashboard exposed to a sun where the sticky part gets mushy or whatever. OP mentioned about using it inside, assuming away from sun?

Now worthless

So when I got my Galaxy S7 I also got a Gear VR. I've recently upgraded to an S8+. I see that I can order a part to swap out the micro USB for a USB C connector. Great! So I order it. I'm happy that it came in the mail. No instructions - no big deal. I find instructions using our trusty friend Google. The instructions don't match the Gear VR I have. I can't swap the connector out. Doing some more searching I find there are different models of Gear VR. Mine is apparently the older model that doesn't have a swappable connector.
Oh well. Maybe I'll take the damn thing to the shooting range. We'll see how it holds up to a round of .500 Smith and Wesson magnum...

No. Just a bit bigger. Smith and Wesson 500 magnum.

well, there is always the "dremel" and a hack it till it works? Or ebay? Not that you would get the equivelent of the "fun factor" of just using it for target practice, but there are always alternatives to consider.

Buy a headset used, Ebay always has them.
Ps. I have a Sig P238 and a Henry survival rifle (AR 7) :good:

I have a black vr headset, and got the side, swapped the usb_C off a box at a tech store but it doesn't fit the headset I have, the little tab prevented it from slipping onto the connection. So I skipped it and it looks like it should all be working right, but Alas... No go. Phone doesn't seem to register it's been connected into the headset...
Any thoughts guys?

Forget the dremel....use the Magnum!

FWIW I didn't blast it to smithereens with my hand canon. I gave it to a guy at work to give to his wife. She has an S7.

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.

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...

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 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.
