Nexus 7 Case

[Deactivated] on 24/02/2013 - 17:28

Hi guys,

I've purchased one of the Nexus 7 refurbished tablets the other day. I'm looking to get a nice sleek case for it. I was looking in the line of something like this one: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Google-Nexus-7-Smart-Cover-Slim-F…

Does anyone have any better suggestions in regards to pricing and quality?

Thanks!

    i purchased one of thhose! they are bad! the amgnetic doesnt stick to the screen when closed and it cant fold to stand or whatever!
    useless case

    they work well but might be bulky

      Got one of those, and the N7 has bounced down the stairs in one and survived (as did the case). Don't pay too much for it, they are all made in the same factory, no matter the branding.

      Also got a keyboard/case/stand like http://www.amazon.com/MiniSuit-Nexus-Bluetooth-Keyboard-Rubb… which doesn't protect quite as well, but is practical for some light typing on the go and makes a nice sandwich when closed that protects the screen.

    I know it's not in the form you're looking for, but I just bought a simple gel case (pretty much this) for a temporary measure until the rumoured premium case was released (which never happened… ugh). Anyway, it's actually fairly sturdy, doesn't add much noticeable mass to the tablet, and shows no signs of wear. So if all else fails, this is a good bet, IMO.

    I prefer the slim cases that are hard.

    See http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Google-Nexus-7-Smart-Cover-Slim-F…

    It also allows you to stand in several positions when watching a movie, reading etc.

      the stand is a scam.

      the cover isnt strong enough to support it. i refunded mine the second day igot it

      i got it from the same shop as well! not sure if it was just mine though

    Not incredibly practical, but very cool…

    I got one from eBay that looks like a knock-off of the Apple Smart cover. Works well.

    I purchased one of these from Amazon last August
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008FLYROG/

    Has lasted extremely well so far - think it ended up being around $25 posted

      That one seems really nice, I might consider it for my N7.

        I can highly recommend it.
        To get it to post to Australia you click on the right under "More buying choices" and add it directly from the BSC store, not the "Fulfilled by Amazon" one.
