Please post which cases are confirmed to fit the US T-Mobile version of the HD2.
I'm currently using the black gel case that came with it, but it makes me worry, as it comes off easily and does not cover the camera at all! I fitted 2 tiny pieces of duct tape around the camera to protect it - there has to be a better solution

This is the one I bought and I am very pleased with the quality and protection it provides. It's also inexpensive and has a metal clip, not plastic.
Good luck!

The OEM European leather slip case fits the US Tmo version perfectly. Very thin and doesn't add much bulk to the phone at all. I really like it. Though I'm still hoping Sena comes out with an ultraslim slip for it because I like the feel of real leather.

Those Sena cases look awesome - I just emailed their customer service, hopefully one is in the works for the HD2. Other than that there's one at more-thing dot com (I can't post links yet) for the HD2 that looks pretty good as well.

Yes, it's very tight. I'm very pleased with it and going to order another just in case they quit making them.
Jessepatty,
Can you just confirm this fits the us tmobile version. I want to order it but wanted to verify with someone who actually has this case to see if it fits.. Thanks!

I bought mine off ebay. But I had the for thought to buy it a couple of weeks before the US release when there was very little demand for it. It was under $6 bucks shipped from China to the US and took 7 days.
Just looked it up. Here is the link to the auction.

Does your TMO HD2 fit in the case with the provided gel case installed as well? I'm thinking "no" but I would like to know for sure. Thanks!
The rubber slip on that comes with it sucks. It's loose and it collects lint like a mother... There is really nothing good onlinethat I can tell. However, T Mobile sells a few slip ons at their store.
The black one they sell is soft rubber and just as sucky as the one that came with it, but the purple case they sell that is in a clear box is rigid and strong, fits tight and awesome... The downfall is that it's purple... but it's only 14.99 so I bought it. It picks up no lint and is very rigid and fits super tight. Much like your pal's Iphone case. it will work for now, until Seidio or some other good case company puts out something else. This case doesn't protect the camera at all but it's great it every other way... (Besides being Purple) check out the pics. I put that decal on there to make it a little less feminine maybe? It won't let me post the pictures so hopefully the links work and you can cut and paste. Sorry. Says I'm a new user... put the http stuff in front of it if you want to see it.

Nice links, will be buying a leather case w/ the red stiching soon.
I found a good case at the T-Mobile store, it just showed up. Body Glove, clear plastic, pretty attractive, with some rubber for grip + kickstand. Check your local T-Mobile store, I'm happy with it. It costs $20

I thought magnet cases are not good for the phones with accelerator . G-sensor, GPS, etc???
I saw that one at fommy.com... My issue is that they don't show the back of the case and I want to make sure that if I buy another case, that it protects the camera lens... I'm holding out for Boxwave's honeycomb case.
Having exactly the same case on my previous phone (Nokia E71) I have found the same style just for US T-Mobile HD2 - it's not really the full case BUT it will do great job with Invisible Shield over the screen

It looks like the silicone cases are now available at B&N.com.
Does anyone have one of these? How is it? Specifically, how "tight" does it fit?
I've had silicone cases for other devices that were a little loose and it was really annoying...
thanks
I have the black/dark gray one. It fits pretty snug around the whole unit. I would recommend it until otterbox comes out.
I have the blue one and it fits great.
Yeah I got the black one and its awesome.
I have one and not a fan. I hate silicon cases but can't find anything else that's not so bulky. The fit is good but mine bubbles around the bezel a little.
Just got my storm color silicone case and over all it is great. I prefer TPU cases myself but this is all that is being offerd right now. Fit is pretty tight but it bubbles on the side edge which is typical with silicone cases.I guess it is better than nothing.

Me too. I love tpu cases... hopefully one comes out soon.
Here's another vote for the silicon case. It is lightweight and snug, has a nicely 'grippy' texture, and hides the slight creakiness of the NC's casing.
Due to that grippy nature, it only reluctantly slides into the soft recesses of my timbuk2 case, though.
TPU does sound like interesting stuff, judging from this review of a $5 HTC Ego TPU case and the wikipedia page on thermoplastic polyurethanes.
Any updates on these silicon skins? I want something lighter than a case.
I got this one.
I love the grippy-ness, and no longer having to worry about the nook sliding around in the car or off the couch, or having to worry about scuffing it up.
Overall it's a pretty decent fit; the opening on the bottom edge of the screen isn't perfect, but it's not bad, and certainly not enough to remove it or look for something else.
Oh, and it smelled like complete and utter azz for the first day or so, but the smell has completely dissipated since then.
Edit: finally got around to adding a bit of double-sided tape around the inside lip of the silicone cover... now it's a nice, tight, perfect fit. =)
I got that one as well. I love it. It did smell pretty damn bad the first day
Got the Storm one from B&N and love it. Just what I needed. Had the book style and like this one much better. Very convenient.
I have a blue one, just got it last week. I like it a lot and for all the reasons listed- it doesn't slide around, I can hold it in my hand without fear of dropping it, it is snug, it looks nice
They told me at the store that the NC + the silicone case would not fit in a case/cover/book. So I bought a neoprene case. I really like the combination. It fits snuggly inside the neoprene case with the silicone cover on.
I haven't found the *perfect* cover/book for - I've tried several and just can not decide. Until I find something, I like the combo I have now. I realize I might have to take the silicone case off in order for th NC to fit in a regular case, but I don't mind having a few accessories around that serve different purposes.
i too have a B&N black silicone case and love it. Fits perfectly (with the usual slight rising along the screen edges). Bought the neoprene ($20 one) case for it but returned it because i felt like it was too tight and sometimes it pulled on the silicone sleeve. Instead, i went over to best buy and purchased their multi-purpose neoprene case. The dimensions are slightly bigger than the B&N case so it fits perfectly with a good amount of snugg-ness/tightness and there is room to add a microfiber cloth in there too. picked it up for $20 also. It is from Rocketfish and i am very happy with it!

Yes!! I looked forever for a good cheap neoprene case and finally found the rockfish one 4 days ago. Im still hoping to go even cheaper through amazon but im so scared that the ones online wont fit with the silicone case. So far, i am loving it!

After hunting around for 2 weeks for something that looks good and works as a stand and cover here is what i found
The stand came from the Apple IPad section but works great with the Elocity A7. The cover is a Nook magnetic cover that gives you access to all ports.
Please excuse the messy desk and phone pictures!
I used the 3M sticky pads on the back to hold it to the Nook Case.
Nice work. Looks good! I have a elocity case from case kings on the way. Ill update everyone on that!
eLocity case
I am wonder were to buy the case for my A7. I can't seem to find one here in town.
eLocity case
I am wondering were you bought yours at? I can't seem to find it.
Case from Amazon.com
I purchased a leather case from amazon.com that does not work well at al. It comes up as a compatible case but the flaps to hold it in on one side to not completely cover it.
its called Leather Case with Pockets for eBook eReaders
sucks!
I bought the case from Best Buy and the Stand from Frys
Has anyone heard if Elocity /Steam is going to sell any accessory for there products??

I want to start carrying my A7 to work with me everyday, but I hesitate until I get a case. I'd like a case like the one shown for the nook...one that cover the A7, but gives access to the ports and maybe can function as a stand...what is everyone finding, and what seems to work for a cover?
I love mine.
It's reviewed here under Ebay Case review.
Casecrown for A7
I received my crowncase case today. Fits well, is cheap and does the job.
I went to Best Buy with my a7 and tried every case they had - and they had a lot. i wanted a case like some made for the nook where the device is inside the case but you can open the flap on the front to access the screen. No dice. I tried a about 12 different e-reader and tablet cases but none of them worked that well. I needed something to protect my tablet so i went with a $20 red neoprene case made by Rocketfish. It fits perfectly and i do like it, but I still have to take it out of the case to use it. That's the only downside to it.
I have to agree with the assessment of the Casecrown A7 case. I bought mine through Amazon and got it with no issues. I do find it a wee bit tight but am hoping that it loosens up a bit if I keep the A7 in it overnight, etc. It's a case, it protects (mostly), and it's cheap. I think that's about as good an endorsement as we'll get.
I have the case off of ebay that is listed in another thread, and it works great. Access to al ports, and fits well too. For 8 bucks, you can't beat it.
Elocity stated that they have finished the design for a nice leather case for the A7. The last I heard was that it should appear for sale on there site soon. That's the one I'm waiting for.
Picked up a Body Glove by Fellowes at Walmart $14.95
Roocase Superbubble
Roocase Superbubble
Neoprene half-zip case with front pocket, almost identical to the Body Glove case they sell at Wal-Mart, the little bubbles absorb shock if you drop it. Just received it and the A7 fits perfectly!
BTW got mine at amazon.com for $20 with shipping

Which bublle case did you get. There is a bunch listed. One for 6" e-reader and 1 for Galaxy tablet, etc.

Ebay case
I ordered the eBay folding cover described here...it is cheap, not very well made, and does not hold the A7 well at all...it does not even close properly because the computer is too big...it only cost 7.95, but is not even worth that

A7 Case
I have not seen any cases for A7 that allow use while inside case. what I bought was a "GRIFFIN JUMPER" for eReaders. Found at walmart around $14. Its more like a envelop with ample padding top and bottom and fuzzy inside and heavy stiched edges. Its a pretty tight fit but it does completely cover and protect.
I use a Belkin 7" tablet sleeve. Its a tight fit but does the job.

Hi XDA! I am looking for my PERFECT case/smartcover for the Nexus 7.
So the official Nexus 10 has a smart cover that is incorporated into the "rubber feet" on the back. Today, while walking through a mall, I saw these Blackberry Z10 smartcovers that are incorporated into the battery door.
Do you know of a case that is similar for the N7?
this is what the Blackberry Z10 battery door/smartcover look like http://bit.ly/10KGnO9
tried looking around, I haven't yet found anything so I gave up. Now my N7 has no case but I might just sell it an get an N10 anyways
The back has never needed any protection so these folio cases are pointless....it's the front that always has, and a bumper of sorts with the smartcover built in would be ideal
Exactly. The N7 is pretty bulky as is, dont need an extra layer in the back.

I have a moko cover that's pretty sweet. Its a portfolio case that let's you stand it in landscape to use with a Bluetooth keyboard or just to watch videos.
I tried posting a link but since I'm a new users, the forum won't allow me to. Just go to amazon and search for "moko slim-fit case" $15.99
Similar to the Blurex cases.
I've tried lots of cases. I DID like the Blurex/Moko style. However it did add a considerable amount of thickness. I also tried the Poetic case, which is a slim hard back plastic case with a smart case attached. It worked pretty well and latches shut at the end to keep closed. The Poetic case is the best case I've found for a smart cover type protection.
I eventually settled on a hardback book case. It is stylish and gives it a little more protection. The lid stays closed with a strap but some include wood shells with magnets. I opted for the cheapest solution and find it very good. In fact it has held up very well. The tablet is held in by sticky tape. I've owned mine for months and never had it fall out or need to be cleaned/restuck.
http://shop.portenzo.com/hardback-for-nexus-7/
Plenty of color combinations. I have a Red exterior, white inner liner, and a black strap. Nice and clean.
So iPAD mini like smart covers isn't available for the N7 ? I too just need a lightweight smart cover only to protect the screen and not the back and was wondering if something like poetic slimline exists?
The Poetic Slimline does exist, as my previous posts states, for the Nexus 7:
http://bit.ly/192m6YK
The iPad Smart Covers uses many magnets around the edge of the screen to keep the flappy flap tight against the surface. Others just use one side of magnets at the edge of the closing point.
Very good price too. I purchased mine for $20, but it is showing $9.95 at Amazon right now.
The Poetic was nice and I liked it but out of the 4-5 months I owned it, I had to replace it 3 times because the material would break at the seams. Poetic has a 3yr warranty and replaced it hassle free by just emailing them my Amazon order number. Because they are so cheap, they don't even bother wanting the old one returned... so while they were falling apart, other N7 owners didn't mind a free slightly worn case.
Here is a video of them:

Yea. In doing the research and finding that video, I noticed the different colors. When they first came out they only had black. I'd almost wouldn't mind picking up a baby blue or red one.
I noticed colors are a little more expensive.
@player911
After so much of research with matching my requirements, I just couldnt find an alternative to Poetic Slimline case. Looks like it isnt available in my country (India) which is not cheap option.
Any idea if there's any similar chinese ones or replica? Have seen few smart covers from China on Ebay but they have the problem of turning off the screen when cover is flipped around.

I've heard good things about the Nillkin smart-wake cases. While the case covers both the front and back, the folding section does not, which makes it a bit slimmer (Hard to explain, take a look at the link for a picture). Apparently these cases don't suffer from the waking issue when folded backwards, either.
Here's a review I found: http://www.androidcentral.com/nillkin-leather-flip-cover-nexus-7
Dad recently bought a Nexus 7 and we ordered this case, though we haven't received it yet so can't offer any first-hand impressions.

Heard about Nillkin so let me see
EDIT:
Doesn't protect the screen as cover doesn't have magnets on edges(magnetic closure) like poetic one to close it 100%
