Anyone have these. Going for $8 shipped on amazon. I prefer dry app SP and tend to just buy the cheap ones.

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.

i saw these on amazon too, in general it seems like techarmour gets good reviews. so thinking ill give it a shot
I had a great experience with tech armor on my original nexus.
Protector is durable, easy to apply
Available for Nexus 7 FHD on August 12, see thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2393386

I'm trying to do some research for a screen protection, back in a days I bought my INCIPIO case that came w/ screen protector and it was sort of settled I figured no need to get another one since this one came w/ it, well after a while (ab)using it I think it's time))
so I'm thinking to get ZAGG, but I want to get some of other people's opinion on that or maybe better option out there..
please advise
I just got my XO Skins screen protector, absolutely the best, it is crystal clear, you don't even realize a screen protector is there.
It also does not affect the feel of the screen, glides across easily.
I have a ZAGG. Meh. If they didn't replace it at the mall kiosk for $5 everytime I wanted I'd be less happy with it. You can definitely tell it's there.

Get a GhostArmour screen protector, a thousand times better then the Zagg.

I used Zagg on my HTC Incredible and it protected it just fine, but it wasn't as clear and smooth as some of the other brands mentioned here. If you choose to go with Zagg though, make sure you buy it online and avoid paying $20+ at some chain retailers.
The lifetime warranty is what keeps me coming back though.

+ 1000 for this! I have ghost armour on my galaxy nexus and nexus 10. Can't beat the lifetime warranty and replacement! Once it's on and cured, it's like nothing is there.
Zagg is lifetime warranty too

Zagg has a disgusting orange peel effect and its a ***** to clean, since it is so rubbery you need water to effectively clean it. That's been my experience and the reason I switched to ghost armor.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I'm still not clear on which screen protector to get... amazon has xo skin and few others but i couldn't find GhostArmour there. I prefer to get a hard screen protector ( i think it's better so I can reapply it if needed ), clear is a must (no tint) and w/ warranty.
I got the zagg for my nexus and I'm not too pleased with it. You can see it and my finger doesn't glide across smoothly. currently looking for another one that's more clear

Sorry to hear that, I want to try something else other than zagg, a lot of people complains(

I have the XO Skins and have to say its really good. I have had it replaced a few times because the oils build up and they are pretty good about replacements. It used to be better as they wouldn't require you to purchase it and then they will refund it but such is life. I would defiantly recommend it.
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

I'd rather get best buy protection and go naked with that price
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2
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.

If someone can find a link or such to the detailed dimensions of the N7, I'll totally make a 3D-Printed case/Stand/Car mount set.
I'm more than capable of modeling these things, I just don't have a clue how to measure the chamfer and fillets of the tablet.

I can't post links yet, but if you go to Amazon, and use the following search queues, the cases should come up.
The first one is a jelly silicon.
The second is a TPU.
The third and fourth are snap-ons with thin profiles.
I hope this helps

I posted on the OtterBox fb page and they said "We don't have plans for that device right now, but we'll certainly keep you posted on any changes!"
I emailed Gumdrop about a Droptech and they replied "Unfortunately, at this time we are not planning to make a case for this particular device. Please check back on our website in the near future for any new updates!"
I would like to see the case mate tough make it to the n7. I have the case on my note 2 and really like it.

How much would you be willing to spend cuz CF is not cheap. with the limited group that would buy the cases would be a minimum of $60. While it would be nice, id be just as concerned of the CF resin getting scratched as i would the device itself.

Hi *******,
Thank you for your email. Our Product Development Team has been working on cases for the Google Nexus 7 (2nd Generation). However, we do not have an official release date as of yet. Sorry for the inconvenience!
We sincerely appreciate your patience and check back with us soon!
Kind Regards,

Absolutely love these Diztronic cases. For such a cheap case their attention to detail is spot on and all cutouts are cut precisely. Going to be using this case for a while since Spigen support refuses to contact me back due to an issue with my Slim Armor case.
Let me know if you have any questions about the case!
You can order it here: http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Mat...=1384301727&sr=8-1&keywords=diztronic+nexus+5
Took 4 days for me to receive it after I ordered it.

Hey everyone,
I recently bought a case from ebay and quite honestly, it's the best case ive ever bough, strong, easy fit.. completely satisfied. It costs a miniscule $2.95 on sale, free shipping from Cali, USA. Every colour of the spectrum is available
http://www.ebay.com/itm/190865070430?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
I got the dark blue case, i love it!
As well, the screen protector:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/190833593337?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
same price, $2.95. 6 in the pack, just flawless. Easy to apply, seller communicates.
I have exams in the next few weeks, i'll see if i can help around here. But the film you cannot notice and the case looks great! I'll try to add a photo in the next few days.
All this for under $6
Happy buying!
Thanks for the tip. I've just spent 9 bucks on a clear case.... Will probably buy me a pack of screen protectors and 3 or so cases. For that price they are worth it and look nice.
