Rumor has it that preorder will start tomorrow and the case will be available in about a month.
I have one of these for my original nexus 7 and its really good for the price. Just figured I'd pass on the info.

Im gonna have to pass. I made the mistake of buying the Slimline for my OG N7 and it was terrible. Left marks on the screen and practically fell apart. And I hardly even used the flippin case. Only put it on when I was traveling about. I had it for about 5 months, and by the 4rth month it was already fraying at the edges.
I had the same problems with the slim case. I have had the revolution for my nexus 7 for a long time and it's in Greddy shape.
BTW the new case is on amazon now for $20

$70! Damn I ordered one for $20 on amazon. I paid $30 for the one for my original 7 but I see they are $20 now as well.

What a rip off
I'd rather get best buy protection and go naked with that price

FYI, Amazon Just Dropped the Price on this Cae Its now Only $14.99 Free Shipping! , BTW I pre-Ordered Both The Revolution and the Slimline, heck for $20 shipped on both, its bang for buck, I've had Poetic in the past, Quality is not the best but not the worst either;for me it's enough; I'm really careful with my devices I'll bet they'll last me!
PS. I trust My N4 with a Poetic Atmosphere.

Thanks for the update. Any idea how OK can get them to honor that price instead of the $20 I already ordered out at?
As far as the cases go I really, really like the one that I have for my nexus 7. I was looking for a defender case but I wasn't about to spend $70 on one. I haven't really been happy with defender cases lately anyways. After buying one for my note 2 I'll never buy one again.
The revolution case is defender like, can be had for less than half the cost and the button press is easy and it feels good in hand. I bought one of the first runs and it had the blurry screen protector. I contacted poetic and they sent me two replacements..... It took a month or so to get them made amnd to me but they made good. While I was waiting I just knocked the one out and installed a stock on one on the screen.
Anyways ever since I got the new front its been on, clear and nice and I don't think twice about letting my toddler use the tablet.

Awesome. I just checked my shipment and it looks like it was just shipped 12 hours ago even tho I got a email from amazon saying it shipped before that. Kinda bummed, I've been waiting a long time for this case. I've actually been using my old nexus 7 all the time just because I like the way it feels in my hand with the case on.
Looks like I'll be happy with the case when I get it tho.

Ordered one of these myself. Looked very decent. Been looking for something that has decent protection as my kids broke the screen on my first generation that I'm still trying to figure out what to do with. Estimated delivery date is Monday, however I'm doubtful as the tracking days it's been in San Francisco since the 19th.

Is anybody else's screen protector very cloudy? Mine is cloudy and has specs that kind of look like a screen protector placed on a dirty screen. This is the screen protector however, and not the screen being dirty.

Make sure you removed the plastic protector film on the outside as well as the inside of the built in screen protector.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4
Much better thank you. It was the inside cover that I didn't know was there. There is some distortion, giving a rainbow like look, but that's something I expect I guess from a screen protector that is not adhesively bonded.

That rainbow effect never goes away either. My original nex7 case still has it. It's not bad once the screen turns on.
This case is way better than the original case. only thing I don't like is the horizontal stand, it leans back farther than the original nexus 7 case.

I just got these off ebay for $11 shipped. For around $2 per case i dont expect great quality but, they should do the job untill a proper one comes along a little after release.
Looks nice, I have a feeling there will be a lot of accessories for this phone over any other Android device.
I had one for my Nexus S and SGS2 in matte black, I hate glossy. Anyone seen one yet?
They're decent and cost effective. I purchased a few from ebay with no complaints

Hey fellas,
I finally made the switch again over to android.
I have been contemplating this for quite some time now and I just had to do it with the Nexus at $350 & I can not wait for it to arrive later this week. + i missed the xda community
I was a former Captivate owner then jumped over to the iphone 4s for a test and now I had to come back. Cant wait to start flashing roms (a little rusty since im sure things have changed in flashing techniques since I left) so a lot of reading to catch up on :good:
Never been a fan of touchwiz or any carrier implemented interface over android so this will be a great change having a pure google device for once.
Also what would be the best cheap case I should get ?????????
Just wanted to introduce myself on the Nexus forum and hope to be pretty active here
UPDATE: I ordered it on Saturday Oct 6th around 3pm ....anybody order it recently ? How long did it take for it to arrive because I haven't gotten any update as of yet??
Plus today being Columbus day I think there it wont be shipped out till tomorrow?
Welcome! This is my favorite stop for smartphone info...
The gnex has been my favorite android phone. The screen size paired with SwiftKey made for an easy transition from my droid 2's qwerty keyboard.
Your gsm version will get better battery life than sprint / verizon. I would suggest bugless beast with trinity kernel, screebl beta, extended battery, cpu spy, and better battery stats.
Good luck.

I know even when I didn't have an android I would still come and browse around XDA to see what I was missing hah...

Goto diztronics and get a tpu for about $10.

Make sure you get a screen protector. Citigeeks has them for 5 bucks. Best 5 bucks I've ever spent

I can say 100% that the battery life is better on the unlocked gsm model then sprint or verzion. I had the sprint gnex for four months. i got tried of thier data speeds so i cancelled my contract and since my brother was ditching his unlocked gnex for the iphone 5. i got his phone and went to att
i know a new nexus is coming but i will still keep this phone. i absolutely love it. the battery difference is night and day for me.

I was thinking about holding off but I heard there were rumors it will be manufactured by LG? which I do not like as much. Also the $ was a influential factor, I can't justify spending $500+ on a phone so thought I would dive in now with the great reviewe's I've read.
Trying to sell my iphone for 300+ so it will basically be a trade off for me..
& thank you all for the comments. I have already ordered a case and screen protector from eBay so now i just sit and wait for it all to arrive :fingers-crossed: (the hardest part)

I love Tech Armor. Screen protectors are quality, and they have a really good policy of sending additional protectors if you mess up application.
However, this is for the first gen Nexus 7. Just making sure you saw that.
I ended up getting a 3 pack of protectors from Rearth. Same price. Didn't get them yet, so can't speak to quality.
Good catch. I searched nexus 7 fhd and that came up. Should have looked closer. Either way I didn't order one.

Ordered a black one at the end of August for 0.1 cent plus 4.95 shipping. Just ordered another..this time red 4.95 plus another 4.95 for shipping. Two cases for $15 total shipped is a great deal.
Nice find, thanks for sharing!! Just wish I could get it for $.01 and free shipping with Amazon Prime! That would be a sweet deal! I'm loving my all white Moko UltraSlim and my all white folio case that I only paid $1.79 shipped for that I won in an eBay auction, so I don't think I'd really ever need/use a 3rd case. Great deal for any one in the market for a case though!!

Hows the build quality?
Does the nexus 7 fits in the case nicely?
I'm really surprised that I haven't seen anyone mention anything about this fantastic case!!
I've had one, maybe two, of these cases previously for other phones. It was a few years back, and don't really remember how I liked them. But, they have been selling them for years now, and for most major phones, so I figure they were doing well. I had been through page after page looking for a case that caught my eye. I never could really find anything that suited me, and was about to settle on the official Google (non-flip) case. Somehow, I came upon the Incipio website and found the dual pro. Went ahead and took the plunge on the blue/dark grey version.. I COULD'NT BE HAPPIER!!
Seriously, this has to be one of the best three cases out for this phone; and, in my opinion, it is the best one out. I also have the .13mm Mime glass screen protector; it fits like a charm and has no peeling issues. The "lip" of the inner silicone part of the case actually goes over the edges of the screen protector. Almost as to "protect" it from chipping/peeling.
Does anyone else have this case? If so, what do you think about it? I might can find a camera to put some pictures up if anyone is interested.

I have this case in black. Its a nice case but the silicon part of the case is loose. When you take the phone out of your pocket, the silicon pulls away from the phone. The buttons are nice on it tho and the case isn't too bulky.
