Belkin Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 folio case

Just sold my Xoom so I have some extra cash and went over to best buy to find a case. This was steep at $40 but I wasn't into the kindle fire cases as they all use straps that end up blocking buttons/ports. Its not a perfect fit but it works for lack of something better.

Thanks for the pics. mine should be here shortly. Looks like it works well enough and better than the one I'm using now.

I figure when they start making decent cases for the Nexus 7, I'll cannibalize this. I'm thinking about ripping out the mount bracket thats attached to the folio part and fashioning some kind of car mount with it. Hmm..

Just arrived, wish the corners came up over the bezel just a hair further, but I turned it upside down over the bed and gave it a couple shakes, didn't go anywhere. If it had a magnet in it for a "smart" feature and the corners came up a bit more it would be excellent, as it is it's still a really nice option. Much slimmer than the navitech case I was using.

Yeah it looks like it might fall out because they don't quite get over the top of the corners, but it seems to work well.

Nexus 7 Sleeve/Stand Review

Hey everyone,
Yesterday I received my sleeve/stand
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Faux-Leathe...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item3378898d52
I'm pretty happy about it and I think my search is done. The outside is padded pretty well. The only con is that the case is a bit stiff when you first receive it so it's a little bit hard to slip the Nexus 7 in and out. The stand functionality is also awesome; I don't need something bulky surrounding my device at all times. Here are some pics. Sorry about the bad quality.

Why'd it have to be velcro? This case would be perfect if not for that...
Anyways, thanks for the review... if the case I'm getting doesn't work out well, I'll consider going for one of these.

Is it possible to use the stand with the tablet at the lower angle for typing? From the pictures it looks like you can just flip the case over but I don't know if it will hold.

Another question, you say it's a tight fit at first but do you think there would be room for a N7 with a TPU case to fit into it?

Thanks interesting case. Does it feel cheap?

+1 Is there a low-angle setup, or just the one?
Also, how bulky is it? The ebay listing only mentions the interior dimensions, but is it going to be a huge bulky thing that I now carry around?
Thanks for the tip, this is the closest thing to a usable case that I've seen(other than the Flipsteady, which is exactly what I want but is too expensive). All I want, really, is a stand that's always with my Nexus.

$5.21 Amazon.com, CaseCrown Bold Standby with Sleep/Wake

http://www.amazon.com/CaseCrown-Sta...=1344521629&sr=8-1&keywords=casecrown+nexus+7
This is a great case, I just received mine today. Much cheaper to order from amazon.com and ship to Canada ($5.21 + 9.99 shipping vs $30.21 + 4.99 shipping) than ordering from amazon.ca
The sleep/wake magnet feature works just like the iPad smartcover.
Case is not very bulky, feels firm, and the magnets really hold the cover down.
Compared with the rotating case http://www.amazon.com/CrazyOnDigita...d=1344472127&sr=1-4&keywords=rotating+nexus+7, it is about 1cm thinner, lighter, and the stand is much sturdier. It also feels lighter, and is slimmer all around by about 1cm. The design of the case is much like the ipad1 case, including the way it becomes a stand.
Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase.

Rotating case underneath for comparison of size and thickness
Sorry for the lousy phone camera picture quality. Too lazy to grab the real camera.

i second this case for anyone looking. i purchased it when it cost me 15 bucks and i saw it was down to five dollars now. :good:

What is the URL
I see the link for the rotating case, but where is an amazon link to the one you are showing off?

Sorry, meant to add it to the original post. will do that now
http://www.amazon.com/CaseCrown-Sta...=1344521629&sr=8-1&keywords=casecrown+nexus+7

Several cases available at http://www.dealextreme.com

Go to www.dealextreme.com or dx.com and they have several inexpensive cases for the Google Nexus 7; probably from the same sources as all those eBay sellers.
As an example I have bought, in the past, a soft TPU case for my S2 (at around three bucks! :silly and I preferred it to an Otterbox... But I believe it's a hit or miss; some other products are crappy.
I bought this (here) and I am waiting for delivery; I will post a review when I get it. Seems OK however.

Looks great. Doesn't look like the flap will stay closed though since there aren't any magnets on the outside rim.

Hmmm, true.
Maybe (hopefully) it's a 'friction' closure?
I could always put a fabric elastic around it I guess, kinda like in the moleskine note books ....
Edit: on some of the pictures, it almost looks like it has an elastic; when you look at the edge, on the cover that does not have the hole, it almost seems there are seams for an elastic, that has been put away for the picture?

any other color?

Not a fan of pink haha.

That pink one has an elastic strap closure, you can just see it in the enlarged pictures on the vendors site.

I like this pink one.

I bought one from another Chinese website, will post pics when I get it. Its this one http://www.aliexpress.com/store/pro...r-Google-Nexus-7-tablet/612136_625561156.html

covers that dont surround the bezel

So I recently ordered a supcase on Amazon and while I like the way it protects my nexus overall, I can't stand how difficulty it is to swipe down my notification panel or press the soft keys because it covers the bezel. Do any users have any experienced with any cases around the same price that don't happen to cover the bezel?

http://www.amazon.com/i-Blason-Slee...1404626&sr=1-3-catcorr&keywords=nexus+7+folio
I didn't search for a better price, but this design is the best on the market for any tablet I've used. They're all the same with a different name punched into the cover, except there's one variation that has a hand strap. Get this. If you search, you can probably find it for about $5-10.

I have that one with a hand strap, moko is punched in the front.
I really like feels good, device feels secure in the holders. Slim and sexy.

After owning 5-6 different cases, the link below contains the absolute best one I've ever used. It's a little pricey (35 bucks), but hop on the chat and ask if they have any coupon codes. They gave me one when I ordered, which surprised me. Only shaved off 3-4 bucks, but it's better than nothing.
At any rate, it's the best one I've used. Very secure, well designed, nice quality.

Noreve make the best cases. Pricey though.

I'm happy with this one. The hand strap is useful to tuck your usb-otg drive into so its not flopping around.
