Best Leather Case I've seen: $12! - Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories

Not gonna lie. I know there are a few threads claiming that they have the "best leather case", and perhaps they are very good, but the one I ordered is also very top notch.
I ordered the case through here.
The package came in about a week, which is pretty decent. The case has a dual tone leather, brown and black, and the stitching pattern looks like a book. The back has a camera hole and speaker holes. It also has this little attachment at the back that I have no idea what is for. The leather is PU leather. The leather is also pretty darn thick too.
The inside has card holders, a strap for your hand when you're holding the case with the front flap flipped to the back, and two holder things I don't know what's for, but I bet for creative people you'll find a way to use it.
The pouch for the tablet is very secure, more secure than the other leather case I have. Normally cases have this plastic thing that snaps on to your Nexus 7, This case, however, has a stitched leather pouch around the tablet, and it has a velcro thing to secure the tablet in place so it can't slide out. The case has a hole in the front for the little LED light thing. The case also has a smart cover.
I've had this for about 2 weeks and I'm very happy with it. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a sophisticated leather case!

Ya the case does look sexie

Its look quite ok ok but not much impressive or elegant one...not a shopping material....

PU "leather" is in no way, shape or form actual leather. It is a disingenuous term used to confuse the buyer into thinking "PU" is a type of leather, which it is not. PU stands for polyurethane, which is plastic. Not leather. :good:

Its now, $8.99!

Bear Motion XOOM Case.

How do we feel about this case? It looks like it's sturdy and should be awesome. I watched a few videos on the original iPad one, and well, they worked pretty swell and looked very, very nice. I feel as though this could be a definite purchase.
Does anyone have it and have opinions on it?
Not a big fan of any current leather cases for Xoom. All look kinda low quality and rough.
Honestly, I feel the same about all leather cases. I just haven't seen a good case with built in kick stand like any iPad case. This has the original case's design and I really like that idea. I wish it were a soft rubber instead of leather, but there's nothing I can do about that.
Just looked at the item. One thing I don't like is the plastic screen shield. I imagine it would collect and smash dust against the screen. I'd prefer it were open and use a screen protector, or not.
Just got this case in the mail. First there is no plastic cover for screen, that is a screen cover on the Xoom itself.
This case is really sturdy, feels great. Feels like real leather (advertised as real leather). The there are cutouts for everything., though when closed the lid blocks the charing cutout. When in standing mode, both orientations are great, the shallow one is perfect for typing (unlike the folio case from motorola) and the steep incline works well for movies(again unlike the folio the case). I got it for $16 + shipping and it is worth well more that the $40 case I got from motorola .

The PU leather has a nice feel to it and does not smell. The case gives the Tab a businessy look, as any leather case would I suspect.
All-in-all I'm happy with it, it is a good value in my opinion.
I have this one to and am very happy with it. May look to get the bluetooth keyboard case down the line but until thin THIS case it working well for my need. Just like most of these cases though you can't charge while the over is closed....no access.

Ah yes, the charging. If it turns out to be an annoyance, I might just cut out a hole for the charger. It shouldn't be too difficult.

Looking for a slim leather horizontal pouch for E4GT

Looking for a leather pouch type case with the following features:
-Magnetic closure.
-No belt clips on the rear, this will be for sliding into my pocket only.
-Durable non glossy finish.
-Soft microfiber interior.
-Able to fit E4GT with Skinomi carbon fiber skin applied to it.
I had this one for my iPhone 4S and loved it:
http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10831&cs_id=1083111&p_id=8561&seq=1&format=2
I have looked everywhere for a similar case and can't find it. Any suggestions?
try this site. I haven't looked for the ET4G case on here yet, but some of these cases are pretty similar in size, so you may be able to get away with a different version of the SG2
I've had these cases for other phones and although they may be expensive, they are very durable. They are hand made , leather and have the microfiber interior. You can customize them too (belt clips, rings, pen holders, flaps, etc)

SGS2i9100 white, mainly cases pics and etc gear

hey all. this is just simply pics of sgs2 and cases, covers etc.
all these covers are dirt-cheap! most are foudn thru ebay or amazon. Do not use excessive quoting in any form!
pic 1: standard sgs2 i9100 nordic white version.
pic 2: case-mate clear case cover, very comfy TPU-style case. the stupid triangular indentations on the back seems to helpescape the blemishes coming from simply cleamching the tpu gel onto the glossy finish of the phone. Not that that really means a thing! The clear rim is a nice feature, showing the chrome bezel off the SGS2. The firm grip comes with the tpu style, the bumper protects all the edges and <obviously> the back camera front surface as well. All covers however, do vocer the camera protruding area. Can recommend this cover!
pic 3: This, a glossy clean white case, made of tpu, a lovely cover, this covers never lost it's white for months. Until - I put it in a bag for a few months at max. the result was this cover was stained in several ways, pencils' helping included, yet surprising how this 'storage' made it look real bad, darkened, stained, after being dumped so to speak.
pic4+5: both of these covers have no cut-outs for side buttons. they are not hard to control though. I have certainly tried worse with a SGS3 cover, whereas the side buttons are askew, tilted backwards to the back of the phone. Using TPU cases on SGS2 is quite okay, albeit can be hard. Nowhere the same issue as on the SGS3. Quite acceptable as you will eventualy know where and when to punch those voume and power buttons.
pic 6+7: comparison of the white TPU and the clear TPU case-mate covers,
pic8-9: these show the same TPU cases, and these come with some screen protectors. cases and covers come with a variety of screen protectors. so do these here, and how to categorize those, will be another matter, cos there's so many different ones. and i dont use a single one
pic 10: this show how a textile mini towel can be saved up for later polishing of the screen. And yes, this wil surely overheat your phone if all you do is play TinTin all day. The SGS3 has a way more back panel to give, and fits 'standard' towels fine.
pic 1-2: No sweat!
Pic: 3-5: that white dirt cheap tpu gel case. Nothing bad to say about this case. Other than if you remove it, put it in a tight plastic bag first - otherwise it will not stay white!
this post is about screen protectors.. happens they all look alike, out of the dozens i have.. there is a few matt ones etc. .. so no screen protectors stupidities. swipe along this post then. if you want to believe: swipe it clean frictionless.
some really awesome bigass covers for scouts
This G931. Golla holster is really neat. As many other holsters I did not find it practical in everyday. Which is a great unfortune! this is a great rain repellant pouch. This particular holster fits a variety of phones WITH cases on, which includes SGS2, S-E arc-S, and those sizes. The pouch has an extra zipper pocket at the belt side, which is a WIN!. Several in my family found it useful indeed.
Golla
pic 1-5: GOLLA G1065. this golla pouch is really nice. a sorta denime color, with damaged areas, a badge, a wide belt fitting, double velcro in the front for the front face flap. The credit card deposit is a JOKE, it is not functional, not useful. In general this pouch is very comfy and absolutely a great looking pouch. Only it does not come handy, for at least, me.
This pouch works as well for S-E Arc-S - even with a cover. Are you needing over protection, then this pouch is there to fit that extra belt.
Golla G1065
this is a previous Golla case. G1065. very very the same as to the previous sandy colored golla pouch. this fits a SGS2 as well, including a case. It also fits the S-E- Arc-S. I would not recommend this case.
it has poor rear hooks for straps - certainly a joke with the brutal vinyl look of the rear of the pouch! the supplied neck chain is a joke, just as the attached flimsy hook is. This model has been discontinued i think, for obvious reasons! I owned it and it was a piece of ****!
EDIT: i will ad a wel photos of the HTC Desire Hd in this pouch. IT will happens when it DOES.
Pic 1-4. shows the typical 'vent' case covers. These <supposedly> relieve the heat from the... COOORE. These are comfy feeling cases, they don't do much, their weight amunt to zero, and can be found in any color.
Pic 5-7: The WHITE vent case sent here was for a korean phone. Notice the antenna area, and the enlarged button areas, and the obviously showing MISSING protectionate corner on the right-hand-side (seen from the front).

			
				
Hi, are those hard or rubber cases?
Looks very cool, thanks for the ideas

[CASE REVIEW] TETDED Black Leather

Here is the product page: http://www.tetded.com/home/en/xperi...ria-z3-compact-d5803-d5833-caen-lc-black.html
I paid $30USD.

Unboxing
- Case
- Some documentation for warranty
- Nothing else
My thoughts
My first impressions of the case was the lovely leather look. The colour is a fantastic deep Washington Black.
The leather is not as plush as I was hoping. I feel as though the plastic skeleton which maintains shape is a bit too thick, compared to the leather. This doesn't compromise the leather feel, but I would have preferred a softer leather.
(Although, in saying that, there seem to be other cases for the Z3C from TETDED which look softer).
The inside fabric is about 1mm thick microfibre-ish. Its smooth, soft and feels hard wearing; good for something which will be touching my phone.
It fits well to the case, nice and tight. There is no play in the case, except for a very small movement in the bottom left corner of the case (not the top left, oddly).
It might have been nicer if the left hand side of the case covered the micro usb port cover, but thats just me. This doesn't take anything away from the structure of the case, I just thought it would look nicer.
The edges of the leather are well burnished and are flawless. The case feels great in the hand, and provides much needed friction on surfaces as well as while holding the phone.
One awesome thing about this case is that it allows use of the magnetic charger (if the small plate is removed; see pictures).
In terms of the purchasing of the case, it took them a few days to send, and overall I think I received it a week after order - not bad.
Pros
- Fits nicely
- Feels lovely in the hand
- Adds much needed grip
- Works with the magnetic charger!
- Its leather?
Cons
- Not a soft leather
- Not much else really
My rating: 8.5/10
Final words
Overall, I think TETDED did a pretty good job on this case. My one gripe is the lack of softness of the leather, but I suppose this would add thickness to the case (although, I think I would pay the price gladly).
TL;DR: Good case, could be softer, works with the magnetic charger. Nice.
