What's terrible about the pop-case?

I quite like the one I got from at&t that has the built in kick stand for landscape viewing. It adds some girth to it, but it feels more solid and that I shouldn't worry too much if I have butter fingers. plus it will keep the screen off the surface as well as the glossy back.

i don't understand why they don't have a cyan barely there case
???

i have the same case and like it quite a bit as well. but i've been hearing that the case can scratch our phones... though i've been avoiding removing the case in fair of that happening... but that barely there case looks quite nice. the one i have now is quite bulky and ive been searching for an armband that would fit the damn thing!

The pop case is huge number one and it scratches your phone two.
Sent from my Lumia 900 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App

I have 2 cases for my Lumia. A cheap gel case (which is terrible, it gets dirty easily and doesn't hold the phone well) and the Casemate Pop! Case.
In my opinion, the Pop! Case is good. It has a cool interior, but my friends are always making fun of me for having the design on the inside of the case. It's tough, I can't see it breaking, but the back is definitely prone to scratching. The kickstand works awesome in landscape, and while it isn't the safest thing ever, it can hold it pretty well in portrait too. It does make it a little bulkier, and while I love the protection and kickstand, I can't get over how much better my cyan Nokia Lumia 900 looks without the case.

I-Blason Slim Case for Hisense Sero 7 Pro

I've been a big fan of the slim cases that Blurex has made for the 7" tablets, specifically the Acer A100 and Nexus 7. So, when I picked up a Hisense Sero 7 Pro, I contacted Blurex to see if they intended to produce a case for it. Sadly, they passed, but I noticed a similar case for the $99 Sero 7 on I-Blason's site. It lacked the cut-out for the rear-facing camera, but otherwise looked like a nice option. Well, about a week ago I spotted the same case for the Pro version being offered on Amazon for $19.95 and ordered it. The package arrived yesterday and so far I'm very pleased with the fit and build quality of the case.
Like the Blurex cases, it doesn't cover the front glass as all. It protects the corners and offers easy access to all the ports and buttons. Unlike Blurex (which uses a leather covered spring-clip), I-Blason's case has a plastic clip on the side to hold the cover closed. It's attached to the case with elastic and opens easily enough with one hand. You can also use the clip to secure the flap when the case is open. As long as the plastic doesn't break, it seems like a nice feature. If someone wanted to lose the clip, and X-acto blade and some sandpaper would make easy work of it.
It also has a built-in hand strap which is nicely made as well. There's a piece of Velcro which holds the hinged part of the back leather to the plastic case. If you open it, the case acts as a 3-position stand for the tablet in landscape mode. The only this that's a little strange is the hinge on the front cover. I've played with the case for a day, and haven't found a situation where the hinge actual comes into play. In fact, it actually causes the cover to pop-up slightly when it's closed, although I'm sure it will flatten out after a couple days.
The verdict? I'm really and impressed with this case. It's nicely designed and has a high-quality build. For people who aren't a fan of cases that add bulk or cover the bezel, I highly recommend the I-Blason Slim Case.

That looks like a universal case for 7 inch tablets. Does it have cutouts for the speakers and the back camera?

Hope so. Not a deal breaker I hardly use the camera to take pics more of a around the house tablet for me. I'll update when I get it. After more reading I noticed it said MD-702 tablet in the listing. I contacted the seller. I have yet to have my coffee this morning and just saw it held business cards and fit the Sero.

Thanks to the OP for your pics and review. I just bought this case.

The hinge fold on the cover is there for "keyboard" mode.
Works well, doesn't bounce around and I was pleasantly surprised how quickly I was able to mash out some text considering how highly I regard the iOS keyboard on the full-size iPad.
My only complaint about the case is the "light colored" micro-fiber interior, which I'm afraid will get nasty with hand grossness as time goes on.

Returned my case, plastic clip already broke. Will keep an eye out for something new.

When I saw that part of the description of the case I wondered. There's a very similar case available for the Nexus 7 that uses the plastic clip design and either the thread here at XDA on the case or the Amazon reviews were full of complaints about the same problem with the clip breaking. Sorry to hear that this one suffers from the same thing.

Yep if the case was cheaper I could deal with the broken clip but for $20 it's going back.

They are going to discontinue this case. They sent me an email
We are out of the heated black cases and it is likely they will be discontinued due to a defect with the clasp.

Refund
I did get a refund for my case though...... I didn't expect it but they wanted me to give a product review for this case and I told them honestly that my clasp broke after 2 weeks of use.... Next email was they refunded...

Nillkin case

Just found this
http://dx-box.com/nillkin-ultra-slim-smart-shell-stand-case-for-google-nexus-7-fhd-2013-2nd-gen.html
I've loved the Nillkin cases I purchased for my phones (One X, One X+ and now SGS 4).
Tempted to purchase but still waiting on the cheaper cases I bought on Amazon before I pull the trigger.

$19.99 seems a little expensive. Does it has the smart cover function?

Looks nice and it has all the smart features...
Sent from My Tweaked Note II

Looks no different from the Moko or Poetic which cost less than ½ the cost.

I suspect the quality of the Nillkin materials are much better

In fact, I have. For my old (now sold) Nexus 7 2012.
Other than the markings there was no discernable difference between that and my friends' Poetic and iBlason(IIRC) cases. Both of which holding up nicely after a year's time.
Unless this N7 2013 case is different, I'll stick by my assessment.
Basically, you spend your money, and make your choice... :thumbup:

Most likely this one and the others that look like this are probably close to the same. As someone said in a different thread they buy them in bulk from somewhere and apply the companies branding.

That would have been me.... :beer:
Not uncommon, in fact, very common.
If you order a few hundred units, they'd put YOUR name on them. In nice, hot stamped, pseudo gold leaf even...

I must agree that there is great difference on the overall feel and materials of the Nillkin.
I have the poetic slimline and the moko already, and gladly shelled the $16 for one from eBay just now.
I had the Nillkin for my now gifted to nephews' OG 7, and knowing all brands I was really waiting for it.

Does it have magnet to hold the cover tight when closed?
Does it have magnet to maintain the triangle shape when folded as the stand?

No and no, just the auto wake/sleep feature I believe
Sent from my SPH-L710 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I bought and received this case (from Taobao to Hong Kong)
I don't have the device with me at the moment so I will take pictures tonight with it in the case.
Initial impressions are that the leather is very soft and the back cover is made in very high quality (leather wrapped around the plastic shell) and see no exposed plastic bits. Furthermore the "baseball" stitching on the cover is very nicely done, and very pliable with no stiffness.
Will update with fitment and auto sleep/wake tonight!

Initial impressions are that the leather is very soft and the back cover is made in very high quality (faux leather wrapped around the plastic shell) and see no exposed plastic bits. Furthermore the "baseball" stitching on the cover is very nicely done, and very pliable with no stiffness.
UPDATE: fitment is good and cut outs are accurate. Speaker grilles are properly cut and quality of the case is insane against the 11USD value. Must buy given the current case selection on the market. The case is light weight and made of very thick "leather".
The only minor quibble I have with the case is that the magnet doesn't keep the flap closed completely. Auto sleep/wake occurs without fault with a 1 second delay. (standard among cases). Finally the "Nillkin" logo is not very prominent making this a very stealthy case.
Rating: 8/10

Price is now $15.89 on dx-box.com. Also noticed they have a white version and it seems there are also Red and Grey version elsewhere.

Does anyone know if this will fit a 2013 model or is it 2012? It doesn't say anywhere in the description.

2012. no camera hole the back upper-left.

I have this case for my Nexus 7 first gen, and I love it, except that the front cover edge has started to split. Hard to explain, I'll try and get a pic, but basically the outer layer and the inner micro-fibre layer are coming apart at the outside seam. I'm looking for a similar case for my 2013 N7, not sure if I'd get the Nillkin again based on the previous experience.

Armband?

Anybody find an armband that works well and is specifically fit to the Moto X?
I've got a Tune Belt that I used with my Galaxy Nexus and that'll probably work with the X as well, but obviously the headphone jack isn't in the same spot.

I have this one

Nice, i've been looking for once since i got my X. How comfortable is it? How long/big is the band that goes around your arm?

The band is plenty long and wide to fit around my arm. I dont notice it when I am running so it is fairly comfortable. If you wear long sleeves it is great, it slips a little on my bear skin every now and then.
I think it is silly that there is a cut out for the camera considering you are going to strap it on your arm, but no big deal.
I pull my phone out of my regular case before putting it in this one, I also didnt use the screen protector.

Awesome, been looking for an armband.

Thanks for the suggestion. I had seen that one on amazon but didn't see any comments/reviews that were specifically for the Moto X version of it...mostly all iPhone users it seemed like.
I'm planning on a run this evening and I'll probably give my old TuneBelt a try. I was surprised the phone does seem to fit in there better than I expected. I'll see how that goes and if it doesn't work out I'll probably order this one...price is right!

Could you get a picture of your case/armband considering the amazon page shows the iphone one for all but 1 picture?

Can you post some pics of it with your Moto X...as I am also looking for the one.

So while not specifically fit to the Moto X, I thought I would share a finding. My wife has an iPhone 4s with a lifeproof case. She uses the lifeproof arm band for running. Today I took it for a run with my Moto X (in a foaming slim fit TPU case). It is super secure, fits in the arm band well and has NO COVER OVER THE SCREEN. It was easy to stop and start my running app and get to the volume buttons for music (that I also have set to skip music)

Neoprene sleeve

I like to use a neoprene sleeve (or something similar) for traveling with a tablet. Has anybody found one that fits well? Most of the ones I've found are either too big or possibly a little too small. Seems like one designed for an e-reader might work.

I bought for my G Pad a 8" Yarvik sleeve, but as almost every 8" tablet, the Yarvik sleeve is designed for those squarer 8" (our G Pad is more like a rectangle). So in for height the G Pad fits great, but in width there is a lot of empty place, so the tablet inside is moving to the sides. Still better than nothing though...

Samsung 7-8" Pouch Stand
It's not a sleeve pocuh, but I love its functionality and cost (in Spain 10-15€). It's available in 3 colors, I have grey and lime, for my Galaxy Tab 7.7 and for my G-Pad 8.3. The Galaxy Tab 7.7 fits perfectly, but the LG is a bit taller than pouch, about 5mm. It fits very good, but maybe the top of the tablet exceed over the pouch.
I recommend you the pouch because its functionality, the size is not a real problem for me.

I bought this one and it arrived today. Big disappointment. It's very tight and it's hard to get the tablet in and out. It's pretty much useless as a stand, and the flap does not close when the device is in the case. I put in a return request already.

Here are a couple that I am looking at.
This one kind of looks good but concerned it may be too big / bulky.
http://www.amazon.com/Optimus-Protective-sleeve-messenger-Black/dp/B00GVHUP1K/ref=sr_1_111?ie=UTF8&qid=1386732131&sr=8-111&keywords=lg+g+pad+8.3
This one appears to be more of a pouch / case to accommodate accessories along with the tablet. Nice but pricey. Still tempted though
http://www.sfbags.com/products/tablet-cases/travelcase-tablet.php
This last one is actually designed for the Mac Wireless keyboard. I actually own one of these and the G Pad fits perfect width wise, but the sock is too tall / long by about 2 1/2 inches. It can be folded in if desired. It's nice material and soft. Still a little pricey in comparison to the first one.
http://www.sfbags.com/products/keyboard-cases/keyboard-socket.php
Tough deciding. May go with the last one if I can convince my daughter to shorten it and sew the end back up for me.

I've got this one: <amazondedomain>/gp/product/B008H3MOY2/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Though maybe only available in germany and not made of neoprene but some fabric (which I like much more, btw). Fits rather tight in length and has 1-2cm space in width, i.e. seems to be meant for some 7" tablets.
Sorry for the missing amazon.de domain... my first post and i'm not allowed to specify external links...?

I got this one at 5 below in New Jersey. It is a perfect fit but I did have to remove the Velcro from the inside and make a strap to latch it shut.

I'll have a look on the US Amazon site and see if I can spot it for you as I'm sure it's a rebadged generic case, even if it's very nicely made.
