Do you have a link or it?

I haven't made 8 posts so I cannot add links...but if you google the name it will come up.

Looks pretty nice, but I'm really looking for something very minimalistic and light. Probably the best case out now though.

I just put in my order & projected arrival date of Jul 5-7.
The case is only 5.8 ounces so that is really light..plus I like how it has the two stand positions.

That RooCase is built exactly like the Belkin case, and for nearly half the price. I should have ordered this. I may order it and return my belkin case.

I kind of wanted that one, but I needed something with a zipper to keep dust and stuff off the tab. I bought the roocase executive portfolio, and it's very nice quality, so I would recommend a roocase

I dont like the picture frame style flap on the back.

Neither do I. I fear it will become "floppy" after some time. I'd like a slim leather case over a plastic one

The flap /back of the case each have magnets, so it doesn't flap at all. It's completely flush with the case, kind of recessed, when not in use.

Oh cool! That's nice to know

I ordered a different rooCase one (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0050IU2N2/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=A2IHZFOHOQ0WG8) and it just arrived today. Seems very nice, good construction quality and the velcro works. I don't have my tab at work so I don't know what the fit is like, but it looks accurate. Will find out tonight!

I've seen that one too, but I'm not a fan of the velcro. Is it real leather or PU?

Pretty sure it's real leather - at least no strange smells.
Fit is good, I really like it for carrying around protection and using as a stand. Is a bit bulky for everyday sit-on-the-couch use. I am extremely offended by the PC Micro company though - they sent an email asking for a good review in return for a $2 refund. Not cool!

I got my Roocase today. It is very nice. It fits great. Only thing I notice is when you have it down at the low angle the tablet is upside down....which really doesn't matter since the screen flips

i ordered this last week and it was backordered. I am finally getting it tomorrow. Ofcourse I will post pictures and review when I get it.

Yep I got mine this week and I like it a lot. I'd recommend it. Quality is good and stands up / angles towards you pretty well. It's similar to the Apple iPad folding case but fold is a little more thick and sturdy.

I just got a Samsung Galaxy 10.1 and I will be using it for school. Now I need a case that also has a stand and am most likely going to get it from amazon. It seems rooCase is the most popular there and is this ultra slim seems the most likely for me. But it looks like it cannot tilt, or I cannot angle it more. Am I right about this. I really need to change the angle and I need a small case for the school table.

Good fitting case
Just got the ultra-slim Roocase for my GT 10.1. I really like it. The quality looks good, and most importantly, it looks like it will protect my tab very well. I would recommend it.

Interested in this one...
I want to see the reviews of this roll in. Getting my XOOM tomorrow, I will need something like this. but for 50 bills it needs to be perfect.
I actually bought one from him on eBay. By far worth the money. Doesn't stretch out or anything. I'm very happy with it.
Even though I have a screen protector, I wanted something that would cover the front, and this has two small magnets that keep it closed.
Again, worth it.
great find. ordering now.
Case discussion...
A few folks over on the Motorola Owner's Forums Xoom discussions are liking the KeviKev case... and a few others. It may be worth your while to go check out those threads too before buying!
Does it keep a good grip does the xoom haze a chance to fall out? Port for charging while closed?

From the pics it does look like there is a cutout for the front camera(I noticed they updated the pics of it)
about the cutouts for the ports. There are only a couple folio cases on the market that have the cutouts for the ports. I've seen videos of people using an exacto knife to cut out a hole for the ports.. Let's just say I'd much rather do that to a case that cost 15 bucks then one that's 50 hahah
I just ordered the navitech case until there is more of a selection to choose from. This one is by far my favorite but really cant think about spending $129 on a case even if it's the best looking one at this point

Pouch that will accommodate Rock Quicksand case?

Hi guys,
Just wondering if any of you using a Rock Quicksand case with your S3 have found a leather pouch that the duo will fit in?
I was thinking of buying the official case and hoping it will stretch, but any advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers

Simply because the reviewer said it was loose, it is. Probably enough to get the phone+Rock on with a bit of work. Accepts mine no problem with a flip cover, which has a wider case back and the front flap. Not bad quality either.
Thanks for the reply! In the end, I took a chance and ordered the genuine Samsung Galaxy Note pouch which fits the combo perfectly.
Absolutely delighted.

You guys mind taking some shots of the S3 in note's pouch? I wanna see how snugly it fits into the pouch, and how easy it will be to take out.
I'm using the rock quicksand as well and I have been looking for comfort fit neoprene pouch, nothing skin tight.
Thanks!
Here you go!
The phone fits firmly in the note case but is also extremely easy to remove - if you squeeze the edges of the pouch together, the phone slips out freely.
Couldn't ask for more!

Nice! but it looks like it's made of leather (or faux leather). what's the inside like? same material? suede? I'm just paranoid of how it may scratch my screen. hence I've been looking for neoprene materials all these while. my nillkin protector is dry application hence doesn't cover everything. you reckon it'll be safe from scratches?
Looks like they don't have it locally though. Gonna need to order online....

The inside is a suede type material so shouldn't scratch the phone.

Youre worried about the 2 millimeter space around the screen protector that is of no actual use anyway? (which is also made of gorilla glass 2 and I have to assume it can withstand some soft suede)

I think I'm going to get the Krussell Luna 4XL pouch. I already have a KaysCase and I think the 3XL pouch would fit my phone only but with the case on it I think the 4XL would be a better fit.

Hi,
any experience with the Luna 4XL yet? Got a Quicksand merely out of curiosity and I am so much impressed of the haptics it adds, don't want to return it. Still, more important to me is a pouch that protects the phone, especially the screen when it's in my pocket, laptop case, backpack, etc.
I hab pretty good experiences, case-wise with the Noreve on my HD2, but the S3 with the Quicksand so far did not fit into any of the pouches I tried. Placed an order for the Krusell, even though the Quicksand is thicker than the specs for the Luna are (10.8 vs 10 mm). We'll see how it fits...

Favorite Gel Case

I tried 2 gel cases the mini suit and amzers both found on Amazon.com
The mini suit doesn't have a gel feel, and lacks protection. Here's the link for mini suit..
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=Amzer+note+10.1
Amzers case has a very jelly feel, and is also much thicker. The price is well worth the extra grip and protection. Which is my favorite thing about the case. It helps you grip the enormous 10in display comfortably without fear of slippage.
http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-AMZ9466...id=1359557273&sr=8-1&keywords=Amzer+note+10.1
All in all if you want the cheapest case you can get to prevent back scratches go with mini suit. If you actually want a grippy protective gel case go with the Amzer. Both cases come in many colors, and at only $20 for the amzer, and $10 for the mini suit($5 shipping included) they are both a steal!
Please remember to thank post if you found it helpful!
Been thinking about getting amzer case, but have read a few reviews that say the silicon doesn't sit flush with the tablet. And that's, my one concern, tell us about it in y your opinion, and photos would be great thanks

By flush you are referring to the way the speakers/headphone input are or aren't exposed?
Theway the rubber sits on the device or are there gaps on the bezel or around ports and or soeaker grills

Hey man, So I was about to post pics for you but my phone kinda crapped out. Sent it into samsung so it should be back in the next 2 weeks. I will try to borrow my GF's GS3 to take some pictures later.. Unfortunately I am using a basic Huawei Android ATT Go phone in the mean time. No flash ****ty 3MP camera wouldn't really show you what you want to see.
I will be honest though, my thoughts about the amzer case where exactly that it was an amazingly snug and good fit. All the speakers/mics/camera/everything is all flush.
I have the amzer. It is thick and heavy. Loads of protection though. It covers all the silver except for speaker grills. There is a YouTube clip I think.
The amzer is definitely thick and good on protection.
Good
agreed

Im not sure if your aware of the newer types of polymers used for gel cases nowadays. They are more dust resistent. In short I dont have a huge dust issue when using the amzer gel case. It stays fairly clean and if it attracts an occasional cat or dog hair theyre not statically glued to the case! Hope this helps!​
I have the mini suit and it's great. Fits snugly and all the holes match up. I have a handmade leather case for my note and the mini suit is good to use when I'm walking around with it.

InventCase with smart cover!

Anyone bought this?
It really look nice ...

If yes, how is the quality?
Is it sturdy and thin?
I doubt due to it's cheap price to be honest ...

IDENTICAL
I just got my moko. Looks identical. It is indeed thin. One thing I don't like is the front cover is so thin it is almost sharp around the edges. So when you hold it with one hand, pinky wrapped around the bottom, it kind of digs into your finger.
Looks nice but I'm not gonna be keeping it on. I have 4 more to choose from. So far my favorite is the poetic case.

This looks nice and cheaper than Moko.
So is anyone here using it to provide some feedback?
Thanks!
Would be keen to know if nay one has this yet, considerably cheaper than the Moko and looks identical.
It looks exactly identical to the moko ultra slim case that I have on my n7. It is probably just a rebranded moko.
Purchased case
Taking into account the shipping on the Moko its more or less three times cheaper, so I have bought the bullet so to speak.
I will endeavour to post my thoughts on it when it arrives. Delivery pending I should have the tablet and case by the 2nd Sept

Thanks Stalkalainen, I will get it myself, but my Nexus 7 is still to be sent so I am waiting in case I find any kind of review, I haven't seen a single one yet anywhere. Your feedback will be great!
Ok so the case is here initial impressions are good, case feels nice smart cover works well.
I will take some pictures and try them get them online today.
Pictures
Here are a few amateur snaps I took from my S3 (CM camera). The case came with a screen protector in which you can see I have failed miserably at applying, a stylus which I will never use and a small lint free cleaning cloth.
The magnet seems solid and when I hold the tablet glass side down the front flap stays put.
Any questions or photo requests let me know.
I'll post an update after I have used it for a few days.
Got mine today, not bad for 99p :laugh:
I bought this cover today ( 9.95 € + 3€ shipping) from amazon !
Looks good!
Won't a magnet damage the screen?
Not bad for £2.90 from Amazon including shipping. It is slim and light. :laugh:
It actually fits nicely into the Mivizu Neoprene sleeve.
The magnet works but would have been better if it is a clasp like the Blurex.
I feel the cover might move (if not inside the sleeve) when it is thrown inside a backpack and the backpack shifts.

Where you guys get it for so cheap?
I've ordered mine from eBay for 18€. Can't wait to get my hands on it.
I'm also doubtful about the magnet closure, I've never used any magnetic folder, so will you assure me it won't damage my precious Nexus 7?
The price has gone up to £9.90 -
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00EF83LZO/ref=pe_385721_37038051_pe_217191_31005151_3p_M3T1_dp_1
As I said before I was worried about the magnetic case closure.
It was really hard to remove the Nexus 7 from the case.
I received my Blurex case via my friend in US. Its heavier than the InventCase and the clasp at the side make it feel secure. Fits nicely into the Mivizu Neoprene sleeve as well.
Mine arrived today, payed £1.99 + £2.75 shipping. Some pics https://plus.google.com/photos/1068...ms/5919832529468769553?authkey=CPefjKjstZjqTQ
The only difference from the MoKo one is the texture and I'd actually say that this (the InventCase) looks more premium than fake leather.

Gordon Ramsey says your screen protector has so many f***ing bubbles it looks like Ted kennedy tried to drown it.

My setup

Like many of us, after buying the n7 the search for the prefect accessories for it started. In my case it was a search for a screen protector and a case. The screen protector was an easy find because I've been using spigen screen protectors on my devices for several years. Spigen hasn't disappointed. The spigen screen protector is excellent and fulfills my needs.
The next accessory required some trial and error. Do I want a case or a sleeve? I knew that I wanted minimum added bulk. So, I bought a moko ultra slim case and a ceocase leather envelope pouch I found on eBay. I tried the moko for a week. Although it is a good case, I realized that I prefer a naked n7. This led me to buy a dbrand skin. The dbrand skin is simply great. The fit is superb. It adds a touch of color (I got a yellow) and minimizes fingerprints on the back plate. It adds no bulk to the n7.
The ceocase leather pouch is a sleek and simple envelope style pouch that has a magnetic catch. The interior is felt lined making the n7 easy to slide in and out of the pouch. The pouch is well stitched and precision cut. It offers a good good amount of bump and scratch protection.
I am now set. I have essentially a naked n7 that has a decent degree of scratch protection. The n7 lives in a nice leather pouch when it is not being used. I am loving it.

Except for the ceocase, there are plenty pics of the n7, spigen and dbrand on the forum. However, I'll add to the accessory porn when I get a chance tomorrow.

Well there are also plenty of other posts and stories on this forum. If you're going to post an epic tale might as well add some pics to show off the setup. It does seem like a pretty nifty minimalist setup.
Always bought Gelaskin but it seems like this dbrand "WOOD" vinyl will look sick ... Just bit confused if i should buy only the front or both side ? Any suggestions
Ok, here are the photos I promised of my setup. Sorry for the delay. I hope you enjoy the accessory porn.
Photos explained:
The first pic is the N7 with the Spigen screen protector.
The second pic is the dbrand yellow skin.
The third pic is the Ceocase red leather envelope pouch with the N7 inserted.
The last pic is the pouch with the N7 partially inserted.
No offense, but that case looks like a women's wallet

None taken. I was curious and got an opinion from my wife as to whether she thought the leather pouch/wallet was a woman's wallet. She disagreed. She said it was too big and not ornate enough to qualify as one. In fact, she commented that it was reminiscent of a style of travel wallet she has seen by Coach leathers for men. Regardless, the macho side of me finds it is to be simple and quite functional for the N7. I'll let the feminine side of me appreciate the looks. :laugh:

It does come in a more mundane and conservative black or brown.
My Setup:
No Case
No Screen Protector
any other way, is far from simple. with the rubberized back, it aint getting scratched. and the front? it's not like a phone which is always in your pocket. which means, the chances of it being scratched are a lot slimmer. I never use screen protectors on any tablet i own. nor case lol
Does that case come with a shoulder strap?

No shoulder strap.
Illumishield screen protector + Poetic Slimline for me.

No silly, it comes with a fanny pack strap.
I've been unsure how exactly I want to cover this thing up. Case, skin, nothing? I'm undecided at this point so I appreciate all of these threads to help steer me in one direction or another.
The Roocase is on sale, looks great. 5 shipped. I bought one. I also have a Moko slim and Portenzo. All sweet cases.
The Portenzo hard book case is expensive but high quality, where the Moko and Roocase are cheap and may last 6 mo. I don't speak experience since they are new to me, but judging by my Poetic last gen.
I'd definitely recommend a slim case with a flap. It just feels more durable and tossable. Also just the ease of just flipping it open and it turning on.
A sleeve is good for travel for luggage but daily usage.
