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

$70! Damn I ordered one for $20 on amazon. I paid $30 for the one for my original 7 but I see they are $20 now as well.

What a rip off
I'd rather get best buy protection and go naked with that price

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.

Dam, for $70 I would need a b...job with it. lol That is way to high for a device under $300. I'm sure it is awesome though.

Amazon canceled my $20 order so I ordered one at $14.99 and just got confirmation that it shipped. Can't wait to get this in a case!

Hi guys,
So my order came in today. I’ve had the case for about the the whole afternoon now and I wanted to give my quick impressions. Took a bunch of pictures to show off this beautiful case.

Nice write up and I'm exited for mine to come in. The pics are a little small but nothing a little pinch zoom can't fix.
Thanks, Danny R.

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.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
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.

Nope nothing yet. By the looks of it, by the end of the month there should be plenty of choices for cases.

Yeah Poetic had the Element case for the OG Nexus 7 which I really liked.

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 am hoping fro a back hard shell from Incipio. Already have an email out to them to see if they have any plans.
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.

Was just about to post a link here for this case. I tried to official premium case and it didn't fit. I must say, the "origami" flip cover is awesome & reminds me of the Asus TFP origami cover, AND it has magnetic wake! I'm sold.
Ordered one and went ahead and got the Poetic case too while I wait for this one. :good:

Ordered a black one at the end of August for 0.1 cent plus 4.95 shipping. Just ordered another..this time red 4.95 plus another 4.95 for shipping. Two cases for $15 total shipped is a great deal.
Nice find, thanks for sharing!! Just wish I could get it for $.01 and free shipping with Amazon Prime! That would be a sweet deal! I'm loving my all white Moko UltraSlim and my all white folio case that I only paid $1.79 shipped for that I won in an eBay auction, so I don't think I'd really ever need/use a 3rd case. Great deal for any one in the market for a case though!!

Hows the build quality?
Does the nexus 7 fits in the case nicely?
OK, a little tongue in cheek here.
Below is the case that I have used since getting my N7 at Best buy on their accelerated launch day. I was in Vegas on business, took a cab over to the closest Best Buy (shout out to the guys there on Maryland Parkway). Was fairly disappointed like a lot of us that there were no cases available. Got back to the MGM Grand hotel and spied my "case"; a hotel hand towel! :laugh:
Been using it ever since, certainly is a conversation starter!
Still waiting on the "in stock" http://dx-box.com/myriann-ultra-slim-smart-shell-stand-case-for-google-nexus-7-fhd-2013-2nd-gen.html from DX-Box. Different story, been almost a month.

Was just browsing for a wireless charger and i have just noticed all official cases for the nexus 5 are 25 percent off on the uk website dont know if its worldwide. But tbh the google shipping cost is still putting me off unless im getting more than one for two things. Just wondering if anyone interesting in OEM cases could it might sound attractive to a few .
