This case seems really nice. I paid less than $8 for two (shipped). Got here in three days from California (i live in central Florida).
It's pretty well made and no giant bezel covering.
The link is below and a video review below that.
Excuse the giant thumb. I tried to rip it off today at work.

First of all thanks for the video review. I just bought one of these to hold me over till more high end cases come out and are reviewed.
The one thing I like about this case is that it offers a vertical and horizontal stand positions.
Also, you scared me for a second there when you pulled the knife out
On a side note what rom are you running.? I really want to move the notification bar to the bottom where the best home, back, and app list buttons are.

How easy it to pull the N7 off of the anti slip adhesive? Just asking in case I want to dock it.

Quite like the look and functionality of that case. But how reliable is the adhesive? I would be worried about the Nexus 7 falling off suddenly...

The dodo case uses it as well I believe.

now that you've used it for a few days, i have the same questions as above. how reliable is the adhesive and how easy is it to remove? does it leave a residue on the back of the tablet?

I noticed that the case fits the Nexus 7 very well. Do you think a nexus 7 with a tpu case on it would still fit inside? I am worried about the height.

I just realized that this case will block the speaker grill so sound might be muffled.

I'm curious too. I already bought it (it was cheap and the dual stands look sturdier than on other cases) but I'd like to keep the back of the Nexus as pristine as I can for as long as possible.

Thought you were going to mess up your other Thumb...

I've been using this case for about two days.
The case leaves a decent gap for the speaker and the adhesive is rock solid. It doesn't leave a residue.

SCARY! Just wanted to let you know to be VERY careful! I am on my second Nexus 7 as my first one the screen did crack after a light fall. And Asus is not fixing them for very cheap! Around $195 for the screen and repair costs, so I just spend about $60 bucks more and bought a brand spanking new one. Waiting for the OEM LCD's to come out and then will just repair it myself! Thanks to ifixit anything is possible! Anyway re-cautioning you to be careful!
Cheers,
Vanka

cool case. i didn't know this type existed.

How difficult do you think it would be to remove from the adhesive if you wanted to change cases or, say, had a really bad eye for lining things up but you're kind of a perfectionist when it comes to those things? *cough*

Wow, didn't expect repair costs to be that high.

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'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.

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.

Nexus 7 case for Kids

So I want to buy 2 nexus 7 for my kids 5 and 2.5. I cant do it untill I find a case for kids. I cant find any drop test video of the stock case.

I bought my (now 5 year old) daughter a Lenovo tablet for christmas last year. It has held up well with just a rubber case. TPU maybe? I am not sure of the exact material, but it feels like rubber.
I think the N7 would be kid proof with that type of case, a screen protector... and some firm rules about the use of the device

I saw this but i dont think its thick enough, my 2.5 year old is an oaf. the best way to describe him is; remember the cartoons where that big monster guy runs through a wall and leaves a hole in the wall in the shape of said character, well thats what my son is like.
I'd wait for otterbox to come out with something. I've got one on an iPad (perfect for kids and old people) for my 3 kids and the thing is bomb proof. I couldn't use anything that bulky myself but its the only way to for kids IMO.

Bobj gear looks good, thanks!
Advice is welcome...
I have purchased a Nexus 7 as Christmas gift for my Family to use. I want to set it up and have my kids (4 year old twins, and 2 year old) be able to use it with "minimal" supervision. Much of the process is account setup and "sandboxing" what they have access to, the other part is protecting the hardware. I have purchased a screen protector to help prevent scratches, now I need to find a case with good protection that doesn't cost too much.
I'd like to keep the cost under $40. So far I have found:
BobjGear Rugged Case: REVIEW | $19 at Amazon
Poetic Revolution Case: REVIEW and HERE | $29 at Amazon
Seidio Active Case: REVIEW | $35 for case only and $45 with cover at Seidio -- slightly too high
I like the bright colors of the Bobj, for kids plus makes it easier to see if it was "misplaced"
I feel the Poetic case provides the best protection with built in screen protector and port covers (keeping things out of ports that shouldn't be there), this is the one I am most interested in and wish Poetic had other colors.
Seidio, I don't see anything it offers over the Poetic other than red, white, or blue options.
I'm aware of Gumdrop and Otterbox, but prices are too high for my taste; I'm not convinced they would provide better protection compared to the ones above.
Any options I'm missing?
I have a gumdrop case, makes it feel pretty solid, has a clear plastic screen protector and a 2 stage casing.

it looks great..comes with hard case and slim cover. I just ordered..not sure how's the quality though
anyone already using this?
looks close to an incipio feather case design for the ipad... the corners dont seem fully covered though? i want something like this as i hate the current folio leather case i have.. its serving a purpose by keepinng the nexus safe.. but i want something slimmer
Been waiting for something like this. Ordered in grey!
Ordered one in gray earlier in the week so should receive it by the end of next week.

It surrounds the whole unit in a similar way to the TPU cases, but has a wrap around cover to protect the screen.

I don't like the flap how it wraps completely around the device and attaches to the back. I guess you could cut it off or something but then it would just flop around.

i agree...why not have a TPU style case and then just attach the front flap to the edge of the case....that is really all they need.
Maybe cuz sometimes the flap folds up from the screen when you put it in a bag leaving the screen exposed....does anybody know if it wakes and sleeps the tablet?

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.

Poetic Palette Slim Hard Case

This is a minimal case, it's basically Poetic's Version of the Incipio Feather Line of cases...that said I just need some scratch protection till some better protecting cases are out...The case itself fits snugly onto the phone, there is no lip and no top and bottom protection..attached are photos.

No lip meaning that if set face down the glass is contacting the surface?
How does the case stay on the phone?
Do the corners of the case on the top and bottom of the phone touch before the phone, meaning if standing on end does the case touch or the phone surface?
I ordered one from amazon today in anticipation of Verizon's release in a couple days.

Corners and the edges wrap around the bezel to hold it in but if you put the phone face down the glass will contact a table surface as there's pretty much no lip.

I just tried it and it is a no go. The phone must be thicker due to the wireless charging

Dang. Too late to cancel the order with amazon. Guess I'll be sending it back.
Thanks for posting! just ordered one off amazon!
FYI to everyone...this does NOT fit the Verizon version.
picked one up today for free from their warehouse, now if I can just go buy the phone tomorrow is a different story.
Another confirmation that this does not fit the Verizon model....
I really like the size of this case as it seems on par with the Rock cases I've used with my SGS2, 3, and 4.
Can you comment on the "textured" feel? What I really look for in a case is that it has some friction/grip to it so that I can rest the phone in my hand at an angle and it won't slide out.

it feels like soft rubber, kind of like the N7 (2013) back.

Corners and the edges wrap around the bezel to hold it in but if you put the phone face down the glass will contact a table surface as there's pretty much no lip.

Lip is minimal but glass is not touching a table surface. You can test it with some source of light. Actually, lip is 1mm and lip cover whole left and right edges (including corners) of the phone. Whoever looks for Ultra-Slim case, this is the case to get. At least for now.

Just got mine from amazon today....very impressed with build quality and feel. Perhaps a bit slippery because its so svelte, feels like silk in the hand.

I agree! It doesn't draw attention, the lip is barely noticeable during usage and it's reasonably priced! :good:
wish it worked for verizon atleast they refunded me haha
Loving this case. It's slightly textured like the Rock case for my S3 and the Quicksand case for my S4, which makes the phone feel a little safer in my hands.
It's super slim and light. It was also crazy inexpensive. +1 from me.
