Ordered a case--will report back with a review when it comes

I wanted something along these lines:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003YD0TT2
(Two piece snap on hard shell, but with soft-touch rubberized coating. Something that protects and adds grippiness, but doesn't add much in the way of bulk.)
I figured between that kind of case and a screen protector, I'd feel okay about just tossing the A100 in a bag. I really want to keep it a pick-up-and-go device (like a smartphone or an iPod touch...no unzipping, or unlatching and folding, or whatever required).
Unfortunately, 7-inch tablets haven't saturated the market enough to attract a whole lot of accessory manufacturer interest.
Soo, in the hopefully short meantime, I opted for a cheap neoprene sleeve until someone offers a case like the one above or one like I had on my Transformer (http://goo.gl/uQwTk), which was actually exceptionally nice.
Anyway, here's the sleeve I bought:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005FJ7XTC
Should arrive between the 1st and 4th, so pictures and a review then.

Try one of these, it's hard shelled and protects the device well. Cheap, too!

Great case for A100
I purchased this case about a month ago. It was sent from China so it takes at least 3 weeks to arrive .
After a week of break in period the case feels great to the hands. The leather used on the outside of the case acquires a nice soft feel and has NO leather smell like the Acer smelly case.
All ports and buttons are accessible and the A100 hold firmly in the case with no screen visibility restrictions.
The case open steno style as opposed to book style in the portrait screen position.
As a bonus they also include a very nice NON glare screen protector.
$16.95 with free shipping....it's a great deal.

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

Anyone tried PDair pouch?

I Can not decide what case to choose, SENA one, but it's to thin and I hate the leather pattern, or go for good ol' PDair,
they have than one http://www.pdair.com/index.php/leat...nexus-gt-i9250-vertical-pouch-type-black.html with multiple stitching color to chose from.
I asked them what the inner side part is made of, and they told me
"Thanks for your enquiry. ALL our Genuine PDair Leather Case is made of Premium Korea Cowhide leather and inner part is pvc. The inner part is a little hard to support the case but won’t get scratchiness on the phone."
Now PVC can also mean vinyl, maybe they mean it's hard to bend but soft to touch? anyway post your answers, still think to go with PDair as the shipping is free, SENA wat's 30$ to ship to Israel and it's ridiculously pricier, LOL not that I'm one to complain, as I ordered some acessories from EXPANSYS UK (extended battery w/cover, and desktop multimedia dock for my GNEX, but they was cheaper back then in comparison to eBay):silly:

I have the same PDair version, but with a belt clip. It protects the screen just fine, in fact that is what I bought it for. It's not slim, but its the only thing I put in that pocket. For the times i'm not wearing business clothes (often) I clip the clip on the edge of my pocket, so the pouch sits inside my pocket, and the clip keeps it towards the top of the pocket. It also keeps the phones screen safe when i'm not keeping it in my pocket and throw it on a table or counter somewhere. It'll protect it from a lot of drops, but nowhere's near as effective of otterbox style cases.

Can you show me some photos? also do you maybe use extended battery? the thing is, that I want to make a pair, buy same type of case for both my Galaxy Nexus and my Nexus 7, I currently use SGP Crumena for the GNEX.
if you compare SENA, SGP and PDair, the last one is different, it not protect all the sides as the other.
on other hand the SENA vs PDair for N7 is that they do protect all sides

Nite Ize Clip Case Sideways review

I didn't see any information on here on the Nite Ize Clip Case Sideways XL (that's really the product name), so I'd thought I post a quick review.
First, a link to the manufacturer's website and an Amazon.com page:
http://www.niteize.com/product/Clip-Case-Sideways.asp
http://www.amazon.com/Nite-Ize-CCSXL-03-01-Clip-Sideways/dp/B00F36YKFC/ref=pd_bxgy_cps_text_z
Carrying my Nexus 5 - wrapped in an Ionic Guardian case - in my pocket just doesn't work. The phone is just too damn big. Wearing standard 4-pocket jeans, I doubt that I would be able to sit down with the phone in any of the pockets, and a set of keys would probably tear the face of the phone up. I will not wear a fanny pack, no matter how fashionable they are. Short of having a tailor sew an extra cargo pocket on all my trousers and shorts, I needed to find a better solution.
The Nite Ize Sideways XL definitely fits the Nexus 5 WITH the Ionic cover. It's a horizontal-carry only case. The case has elastic sewn-in the ends to check to the phone's horizontal movement; the phone lightly touches these stops, and horizontally it's a good fit. the vertical height of the case is about 1/4" (7mm) proud with the phone in and the velcro closure (more on that in a bit) centered; the case could be a 1/4" vertically shorter for a perfect fit, but there is some adjustment in the closure, so I can live with it. This case will probably fit most, if not all, Nexus 5 protective covers.
Features:
Colors: Black (purchased), Mossy Oak Break-Up Infinity (for dance night, I guess), and Espresso (a dark brown fabric with black trim).
Construction: The fabric appears to be ballistic nylon with faux-leather accents. There's an thin internal pocket on the clip-side of the case that can readily accept credit cards, identification cards, folded currency, etc. The exterior ballistic nylon is backed internally by soft fabric; the case covers the phone completely. The case appears very durable and protective for the phone. With the "lid" of the case closed, the case is locked "solid".
Clip: A fairly wide black plastic clip. It will easily fit a 2" (5 cm) belt. As previously stated this is a horizontal-only case; the clip doesn't rotate. One advantage of the fixed clip is that it creates a much thinner clip. The clip has a hook on the bottom; once it snaps over a belt, it stays put. I've had to fish my other cases (with phones in them) from the seats of cars and chair cushions because the act of sitting-down pushed the case up and off my belt when carried on the small of my back; no issue here.
Closure: Hook-and-loop (Velcro). Either you love Velcro, or you hate it. The folks I know who carry gear on their belts (military, police, rescue workers, corrections officers, etc.) swear by Velcro. I can live with it, it's just a little loud sometimes. It's probably not as loud as my annoying ringtone, so most people never hear the holster opening.
Cost: $13.49 (US), and free Super-Saver shipping.
Gripes: Not really any major gripes. One (minor) gripe would be the lack of a cutout on the bottom of the case so the wearer can push the phone up when pulling the phone from the case. The case is designed to protect the phone, so I can't blame the manufacturer. With the elastic sides and flexible ballistic nylon construction, I can slide my fingers between the interior wall of the case and the phone and pull the phone out of the case easily enough, so it's not really an issue.
Final thoughts: Nite Ize has a good reputation for making tough gear. Read reviews for any of their products; customers love the build quality and durability. It's one of the few options for carrying a hybrid-cased Nexus 5.

[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.
