Smart Cover Auto Wake up casing? - Nexus 5 Accessories

Apart from the LG QuickCover which is rather expensive, is there any other casing that has similar build and feature? I saw this in ebay and it seems to be supporting the auto wake up when flipping open the case. Not 100% sure though :S

I ordered the one you linked and it'll be here sometime later this month/early next month. I had a Nillkin slim case on my N4 that I was happy with so I'm hoping I'll have similar luck with the flip case. I'm just going to use a hole-punch for the notification LED.

Case with Smart wake up. Ordered this but didn't even know it had that feature. Took time to arrive to Europe from China but worth the wait.
Search ebay: MOFI Slim PU Leather Smart Sleep/Wake up Stand Case Cover for LG Google Nexus 5

I have a cruzerlite wallet type case and has the feature. I don't care much for it though. Got it in 4 days and that's pretty fast compared to ebay/china shiptimes which usually last about 10 biz days.

I have the nillkin case you've linked to.
Works well and protects the phone.
My Nexus 5 fell out of my pocket last night and landed on a concrete floor. Slight scuff on the case. N5 is fine no marks or damage

I have that Nillkin Flip case and I really like it. It stays neatly closed at all times and there is a wake magnet. It took 3 weeks to receive in the mail tho. (I payed 7$ all in).

Here is another Nexus 5 case that is compatible with the Nexus 5's auto sleep/wake function

Looks nice, but could we fold the cover flap fully to the back, in case we want to hold the tab in book reading mode
I just ordered one of those from amazon.
Bad thing is that for me, shipping was even more expensive (15$) than the cover itself (14$)...
I think you can fold the cover flap fully to the back, in case you want to hold the tab in book reading mode. Take a look at a video on youtube about this case, but ipad version. Search for "Review: Acase Slim Leather Folio Case with Stand for iPad 2".
doesn't look like it. there's no crease on the front cover like the ipad case i have.
i bought one earlier and it should be here next week. now i'll have a matching set for my ipad, gt7 and gt10.1.

Aw man, didn't see that. If only it is a mistake with the pictures and the cover we receive is OK... I think that crease helps you type on the best position. Well, you know better that you have the I pad version.
you can rest the bottom on the "latch" and put in a slightly upraised position. i just find it a little too bouncy when doing that while typing.
I have the same case for my 7" Galaxy Tab and am very happy with it. The quality is that of a much more expensive case. If I had not already bought another case I would be picking one of these up.
Unless I am seeing it wrong in the photos the problem with this case is that you have to constantly detach it from the BOTTOM HALF of the TAB to use it in a tilted position. This is how that $90 Zenus brand carbon fiber case I bought and returned worked. It was a real PITA plus it will eventually wear the paint off the tab.
i prefer that than the extra thickness (like belkin folio case). i haven't had any chipping or scratching on either of my other tablet's yet, but i did bend all those tabs a bit after getting them to make it easier to pull out. i even loosened the cover latches a bit too.

UK Folio Case

I've got the official Moto folio for mine at the mo, and its not a bad bit of kit however, it has 2 annoying "features".
When you pop the bottom of the case off to stand the device up, the device "slips" inside the case and the plastic clip bits push the volume rocker.
I dont have a screen protector on mine and the protective ridges leave bars across the screen..
Anyone in the UK tried another case, or someone in the US perhaps with a case that I can get here in the UK?
glad it's not just me then! I'd assumed I'd just gotten a slight "dud" one when I found my Xoom slipping out slightly.
I also find that the bottom corners don't both fully clip over the tablet...I had assumed it was just because it was new (got it last week) and needed to bed in a little, but that may not be the case then.
The bars you mention annoyed me at first, but they wipe off so I'm not too fussed. Would be interested to hear views on other cases as well though
I've had no issues with my uk folio case, apart from the price I paid for it last year. It sits very firmly in the case and clips over fine, however I do have to apply pressure to get it to clip over properly whenever I am putting the case back on.

Same here, no problem with it slipping when popping the bottom of the case of to use as a stand. Its a firm tight fit.
As for the bottom not fully clipping over the tablet. I had that problem when I got my case. I sliced the two little nibs of plastic off and although its not a 100% fit, it does sit a lot better in the bottom half.
I've gone for this one as it seems to get great reviews

THINNEST case w/auto-wake function?

I want something as close to the iPad Smart Case as possible: super-thin, able to function as a stand, but with the auto-wake functionality. Any suggestions?
Poetic Slimline is your best bet.
Sent from Tapatalk, using Tapatalk
I am also using the Poetic Slimline. Very happy with it. Auto-wake, miracast with PTV3000 and wireless charging with Lugulake all work properly when using this case.
This is what I use. Found the folding too stiff on the poetic. This is just like my smart Cover was on the iPad mini (except it has a back cover)

I bought the Nillkin V Series because it was the sleekest case I could find. It fulfills the two conditions in the thread title, but the stand function seems a bit unstable.
I take that thing everywhere and it's been holding up quite well.
People have been talking about the Mofi case lately, but it's only available in green, orange, brown and teal (which Mofi laughingly calls blue).
The brown version is only available on ebay.
The new cases by Seido are also worth a look -- though if you want one, you might want to wait for a sale.
My roocase slim works great. Origami version I think it's called. 15$

MoKo case and I'm very pleased
I got the MoKo when it first came out, shortly after I got the N7. I've been very happy with it, the tablet is held firmly, but can be removed without a lot of force. I have another very similar case that holds the tablet so tight that I'm concerned when I try to remove it (I've decided to use that one for a car mount system I'm building as I know there's no chance it will fall out!) The smart on/off works great and the cover stays closed with magnets also. It took me a little while to get the bend lines to flex properly so that the stand functions worked, but after a few days it has been no problem. It still looks new after 4 months, no frayed edges, it goes with me everywhere, everyday. It's got to be one of the best cases I've ever had (no I don't work for the company, nor do any friends or relatives).

Brown is normally a low-key color, but Mofi outlines it in white, which makes it look garish.
I liked the orange case best myself but wish the surrounding plastic were black.
Still, the few people who own both the MoKo and Mofi cases and post here have claimed the Mofi is noticeably better made.
How are the magnets on your MoKo -- does the cover stay closed if you hold it upside down? Does the stand stay in place? I've read good things about those features.
Google released their official case yesterday on play store.

Just purchased and "put on" the rooCASE Origami Slimshell. It's got a polycarbonate shell back and a light flap (which turns on/off the unit) which can be "folded" to support the unit in landscape or portrait mode. I have a Nexus 7 (2012) I'm about to sell on which I used both the Speck Fitfolio and an Incipio unir. I preferred the Speck because of its clasp, but I understand that the Speck version for the Nexus FHD 2013 doesn't have the magnet for on/off ability.
If you want slim, take a look at the rooCASE. With the case on the unit is still just about a half inch thick.

Not happening on mine. I think there are two different cases called "Origami." Mine is the SlimShell. I did have issues with the unit turning off from the magnets on the Speck case on my 2012 Nexus.

The magnet is very good but the stand is a bit stiff even after using it for months and months on end so it doesn't always stay in but that's a minor inconvenience, but for the most part it works fine even when the stand comes out it still tends to stay in the same spot so I'm not really disappointed.

What's odd about the Play Store's specs for the black, gray/red, white/red and blue/red Nexus 7 2013 cases is that no mention is made of the kinds of materials used or whether there are magnets. What's odd about the ad copy is that no mention is made of features other than the fit's being exact.
I wouldn't want to spend $50 on a case for a $270 device -- even a white 32GB N7 (2013) -- but I'd be especially reticent not knowing if the interior was real or synthetic leather or the exterior, real fabric -- let alone whether the cover would actually stay closed.

The Google cover has no magnets anywhere. The gray is a denim-like fabric and the other two felt like synthetic leather to me. All the colors smell horrible.
Don't buy the official Google case.

MoKo case has been excellent both function AND value
I use MoKo for Nexus 7 (2013), iPad mini, and iPad Air. It has been outstanding for ALL tablets in a variety of environments. It fits snugly, all ports and holes line up nice and square. Wireless charging perfect. The price <$20 incl. shipping.. (The Apple Air case is almost $90, MoKo gets the job done for under $20 shipping incl. I'd buy a MoKo in a heartbeat for my HP TouchPad if I could locate one. I have about half a dozen other cases for different usages, but the MoKo is on %90 of the time. GOOD STUFF!

Official flip cover - $20 shipped

I purchased one of these a week ago and came in today, it's the official AT&T / LG flip cover with wireless charging and NFC.
Came in today, in a plastic bag inside a padded envelope. Works great, feels great, definitely the real thing.
Don't mean to sound like an ad, it's not my listing, but I've seen people getting replacement back covers without Wireless charging for $30+shipping, so this at $20 is a steal!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360868957051
One question, if I hold the phone or sit the phone on the table, back side down, the front flip cover part doesn't stay all the way shut. The right side is about 1/4th inch up off the screen. The auto screen on/off still works but it'd be nice if the cover stayed "tight" on the screen. Though I understand there is no magnet or anything on the far side so it may not be possible, is it... possible?
" the front flip cover part doesn't stay all the way shut. "
That's probably why it was a RETURN aka REFURBISHED and why there was only one of it. Discounted.
I just bought 2 from the same seller (extra one by accident, hope this seller a4c will let me return it for refund. He didn't even responded to any of my email telling him to just send one). I want to know what do you think of this flip case overall, since you've been using it for a while by now. Does it protect the phone from accidental drops well? I'm thinking I'll have to bind the cover with a large rubber band or something to keep it from opening up when it drops. Right now I'm using am Abecus flip case. It works okay, but holding it in my hand is kind of awkward and tiring. I'm hoping to do better with this lg flip case.
Yeah I'm also searching for a nice smart case for the G Pro and would love your feedback
I just got mine today, and I must say,I'm kind of disappointed. This flip cover case offers no real protection to the phone what so ever. The cover itself may protect the screen from scratches in the pocket or bag, but I already have a screen protector for that. It's really just a lg e980 back cover with a screen cover flap attach to it. There is no protection to the four corners of the device if the phone falls. The battery most likely to come out if the fall is a hard one. The flap itself doesn't attach to anything, there isn't a magnet or a button to keep the flap close. The overall appearance of the phone with this case, is just like the original phone with a black plastic screen cover, but it does give a smart look. Earlier the op mentioned that the cover won't stay tight. On mine it works fine, may be it's not staying tight due to that the synthetic leather needs be worn before it will fit right, but it's really not an issue. The plus side of this case is that when you close the flap, it does make the device sleeps, and open the cover wakes the device. This feature alone is worth the price of the case. Using the cover to wake and puts it to sleep beats the gestures and the button any day. I'm not sure about other features I have heard about, such as the NFC and the wireless charging because I haven't tested them. I may return this case because it doesn't protect my Phone, but my other cheap wallet case is already showing signs of wearing, and this case does look sharp. So I don't know. I may have to shop for another case soon. I will post in a few days after using this case for a while.

Well they just suppose look fancy but where never intended to really protect the phone.

What's fancy about a piece card board like screen cover attach to the back cover? I figure since they call it a case, it suppose to protect the phone. My cheap wallet case offers some protection when I drop it. They really should call it 'screen cover' because there is really not a case anywhere. But like I said, the best part of this 'case' is the screen sleep/wake function. I may grow to like this special back cover after all.

Leather folio case with flip cover, like on Nexus 6P

I've been very happy with the case on my Nexus 6P (this looks like the one: https://www.ebay.com/i/131886281154?rt=nc&var=431231132500). Now having preordered XL2, I've been searching for similar case, but so far haven't found anything that would be close enough match. I went through the Cover thread, and closest ones were cases like this and this but there appears to be few essential differences:
The plastic bumper around looks a lot thinner on these XL2 cases
XL2 cases all have kickstand, which basically means the backside is not as thick/protective against drops
I don't need any CC slots (although having one isn't a show stopper)
Most of these XL2 cases look cheap at least in pictures
Even tried asking @madebygoogle on Twitter, but they didn't have any info on such cases. I'd happily pay that same (absurd) $50 or so for the case that I paid for this 6P case as it really is a premium case I've enjoyed using. Any tips are highly appreciated!

Ditto. Does anyone know who manufactured the Nexus 6P folio?
From what I've found they were produced by adoptednyc.
They show no new items since iPhone 7.
Facebook is quiet too for them.

I ordered 2 of these(2XL & 2).
Will report my assessment of them when they arrive.
Will likely take weeks, coming from China.
I prefer a flip case because of the added protection for the screen.
Also when I hold the phone in portrait mode I tend to use the flipped cover a secure holding grip.
The main downside is when taking a picture the cover gets in the way if I'm too hurried to get a picture.
I ordered the natural leather finished flip case without the strap or clasps from Tedded.
Looks to be of nice quality whereas it's real leather and not the plastic leather most cases use.
Where do the plastics cows come from? Do you feed them plastic packing peanuts?

So I received the cases today.
If the Nexus 6p official case was a 10, I'd give these Tetded cases an 8 or 8.5.
The hinge part of the flip cover seems a little flimsy, not in quality but in strength.
This causes the cover to wiggle or sit a little crooked at times. It isn't bad but not perfect.
The only other thing I'd change, if I could, would be to add a bevel to the area around the fingerprint sensor. Having a beveled surface makes it seem less deep when it guides your finger to the sensor. The hole on this case is is good, but again, not perfect.
All cutouts are properly placed, so no issues there.
All in all, I'd recommend this case to anyone who liked the official Nexus 6p case.

Just received my flip case from Tetded.
If you desire a case that wasn't made from last months recycled Coke or Pepsi bottle this is the one to purchase.
I bought the flip case without the latch, the classic vintage brown version. It has the feel of fine leather, not something made from camel scrotum. The cover does interact with the screen as it should.
Access to the side buttons is good the fingerprint sensor is recessed a bit but access is also good.
The only downside at the moment is I use a magnetic phone holder in my vehicle that requires a very thin steel plate be applied to the inside of the front cover I usually use a credit card slot of which there are none. Tomorrows project.
the case is pricey but so wasn't the phone now to find a glass screen protector that doesn't have issues.
Don't ask for "pics" friggen Google Tetded.

If the Nexus 6p official case was a 10, I'd give these Tetded cases an 8 or 8.5.
The hinge part of the flip cover seems a little flimsy, not in quality but in strength.
This causes the cover to wiggle or sit a little crooked at times. It isn't bad but not perfect.
The only other thing I'd change, if I could, would be to add a bevel to the area around the fingerprint sensor. Having a beveled surface makes it seem less deep when it guides your finger to the sensor. The hole on this case is is good, but again, not perfect.
All cutouts are properly placed, so no issues there.
All in all, I'd recommend this case to anyone who liked the official Nexus 6p case.

I know this is an old thread, but I'm in the same boat. One question for anyone that has the TetDed folio case. 1) How's it holding up a few months down the road? and 2) does the cover hold shut via magnet? Or is it just floppy? Thanks in advance to anyone still monitoring this.

Mine is holding up great, but I'm the type that doesn't have the cover open a lot.
My wife's is not holding up as well cause she is constantly on the phone.
The wear & tear that bothers me about hers is that the cover doesn't rest properly when closed now. it wants to sit crooked by default, resulting in me having to adjust it whenever I see it.
Overall, I think they are still a good option for folio covers, just not nearly as perfect as the Nexus 6p cover.
thanks for taking a chance and for reviewing the leather case.
