I don't know if anyone else is thinking the same but these things are built like bricks . I would just like some stylish colored bumpers for the corners. Kind of like the ones for the iPhone. I seen ssomeone made clay ones for an iPhone but I wonder if anyone is gonna try to produce them?

Good idea, I'd buy one. I have a bumper type case for my Galaxy Nexus and love it.
maybe there is a case out there that you can cut into a bumber case. i did this with the galaxy nexus incipio neo hybrid and it works and looks perfect.
Yah. Even if I made em out of rubbery clay. An you used carpet adhesive. I wonder.

Not sure if these have been posted yet, but my wife stumbled upon these cases. They have a bunch that look nice. There's even a keyboard/case combo.

The problem with cases like that is the back will be covering up the speaker bar/slot which will muffle the sound of the device which imo is already too low in most cases.

I'm interested in this case if it is a TPU case (like the white a lot). They say silicone, but when I think silicone, I imagine the softer, stickier cases. It looks like TPU, though. Anyone care to guess?
Those are pretty much the same as the offerings available on eBay and Amazon, I think we'll have to be patient and wait for something decent to come out.
Might try the treegloo case but this is a nice find, thanks

Loving this one too. If my final decision is the note 2 this will be mine.

They have it at T-Mobile stores. Bought it and returned it a week later. The elastic strap that holds the front closed stretched out really quick and after that the front cover didn't align correctly causing it to look pretty crappy.

Looks like cheap material but really like the idea, this is what the smart case should have been (like in that MOD thread where they take the flip cover and add a TPU to it); esp like the stand feature
Stupid case, bad execution.

terrible case - the cover is connected with a floppy piece of elastic fabric, the elastic band to hold the cover is stiff and overall it feels like it triples the thickness of the phone rather than doublet it... pass..
purchased this at t-mobile, returned it. The strap was the deal breaker for me.
Cant you just cut the strap off?

This actually look not so bad. Ive seen worse credit card hauling leather wallet/case. Imma snag one from local tmobile tommorow if they have it.

Looking for a case for my wife's Nexus 7. She has an SGP screen protector installed. The goal is to make sure our 3 year old can't get her hands on it and smash it to pieces . I'm looking at the Poetic Revolution and while it looks sweet it already has a built in screen protector, but I guess I could peel/cut it out. Thoughts? Thanks!
Get the gumdrop case

Actually looks pretty sweet. I'd get that for myself. Not sure if the wife would care for it though. Still awesome though.
I agree, either gumdrop or Seidio with cover. Seidio would be more attractive to a girly in my opinion (I'm a girl).
Okay

I have the pinkish color bobjgear case.. I think it looks much nicer then the gum drop . but still have good protection.. NO Built in screen protector....
I really like the protection from this case..
I have a pretty unique situation. We purchased our 4 kids nexus 7's for Christmas along with Poetic Slimline cases in their favorite colors (Black, Red, Pink, Purple). I'm trying to find some cheap neoprene sleeves big enough for the tablets in the cases. I would also like to have a place for the charging cable. In a perfect world I'm hoping to find them in colors similar to the cases. Thanks for the help.

Does it have to be neoprene? Cuz you'll get a wider range of products if you exclude it out.

And definately a sleeve, not a zip up case?
OK, I have the N7 in a plastic snap-in case. I use the neoprene Blackberry Playbook case that comes with the Playbook. I used to have a Playbook but sold it and forgot to give my buyer the neoprene sleeve. Fits like a glove and good quality, too.
I purchased a Travelocity neoprene sleeve for $5. It a little big for a Nexus 7 without a case. There's a zipper pouch on the side that would let you store the charger and cable.

i got that sleeve. comes with a zip up pocket for cables. i can put a pair of headphones, usb cable, otg and flash drives...
only black color.
not sure if it will fit with a case on it... but maybe try to find a store with it in stock and see if it fits.
Well we figured out the girls, now I just need two sleeves for the boys.

Do any of the sleeves or zip cases provide impact protection for the screen? I'm looking for a product that I can use when my Nexus 7 is in a backpack or duffel. I'm think of some sort of rigid insert that would diffuse bumps or pressure from other objects. Nothing too radical or bulky, just something to protect the screen if the Nexus is pressed against something while travelling.
This seems like a pretty common need, but I haven't found anything yet. I have an outstanding Tom Binh sleeve for a notebook, but they don't seem to make anything similar for small tablets.
i just bought this~ It mention its for N7 but its a little bit too tight for my N7

I'm using the poetic slimline case which is really nice but I just need a sleeve that will work with the case and also have a place for the charger.

This case is only good for protection from scratches. While using this case I dropped my Note 2 from 2 feet onto pavement and the screen cracked. The case is great if you want something very slim but I wouldn't trust it for drop protection. The casemate tough case is also very slim but provides 10 times more protection.

I only use this case for after work during work i use a otterbox commuter

Yep, read another post with someone dropping their phone using this case and it shattered the screen. It's slim and protects from scratches, but next to nothing drop protection.
+1 for Case-Mate Tough as one of the slimmest cases with a drop protection on par with other cases twice of it's thickness.
awesome!
I just like this case cause phone still looks sexy with it and im pretty carefull with my phones but i do construction work so otterbox comnuter goes on at work

I like my cruzerlite case, this doesnt look all that great.
Lol but everytime i see Verizon customers with note 2 it makes me giggle, cuz of that home button advertisement.

I have the aluminum button from spigen over the home button for that very reason.
Back to this case to be honest I didn't even think it looked all that great. The back is an absolute grease and finger print magnet.
After getting my phone replaced I tried out the seidio surface case (which I liked, good kickstand) before finally settling on the casemate tough case. It seems to be the perfect marriage of slimness and protection. Although I'm probably going to order the seidio convert case add on for the surface case I already own for those trips where I might want additional protection.

It comes in 3 colors for 10 bucks. Actually the black and silver look very nice, much better than stock and I actually prefer the tactile feel. It has a very nice metallic spiral design. I was concerned about the button moving around but after 3 weeks so far the adhesive is very good. I'd recommend it especially if you have a Verizon note 2.

I had a slim case on my N2 once, a Nilkin one but pretty much the same design as this one.
Then I dropped my phone whilst getting out the car, and now I have a dirty great big crack across the bottom of my screen. No insurance...
Now I have my phone in an Otterbox, with a film screen protector to hopefully stop the crack getting worse. I has a very big sad.
Do yourself a favour, avoid slim cases as they're worse than useless. They give a false sense of security that WILL be shattered, along with your screen, when you drop it. If you're going for a case, get something that PROTECTS!
That's exactly what I just wrote in another thread for Case-Mate Tough. If you want a super slim case, great grip, and durable corner protection to give you a piece of mind - there is no better choice but Tough case.
