Qi Case or Cover - Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories

Hi,
Is there a case or cover that still lets the Qi wireless charging work?
Thanks,
Josh

Ok cool. I ordered the Moko and the Poetic thin cases. I found in another thread where some guys said they worked with some charges.

I can confirm that both of those mentioned cases do work. I have both of them and wireless charging works with both slim versions.

Anyone have experience with the moko slim case here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DE8R3BO/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
edit: Found this nice list: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2402341
no one mentions my case, but it's similar to another moko case so I'm gonna assume it works.

5mm thickness is the QI standard. It can charge up to 5mm distances. I would say most cases will work.

I did a review on my Qi Charger and tested it with my Poetic Case and it worked

I asked the TreeGloo people asking if theirs works with the Qi charger. They said the slim case does. Got one on order and keep it in a sleeve for now until it comes in.

Thanks for the info, I've been looking at getting a Qi charger for my N7 and wanted to make sure that it would work with my current slim case.

Well one of my friend owns a QI charger for her N7(2013) and its not creating any differences with the cases...and working pretty well...so no worries...

Just received my white Nokia DT900 in the mail today. It charges perfectly with my Moko UltraSlim case on my N7 FHD! AT&T currently has the DT900 on sale for only $24-25 AND in all colors Nokia offers! Amazon has the Nokia DT900 in black for just a few dollars more, but all other colors increase the price by almost double! AT&T allows you to choose whatever color you want for the same low price! Moko UltraSlim case is very similar (almost identical actually) to the Poetic Slimline, Nilkin, and many others. I only have the Moko UltraSlim case, so I cant assure anyone that the DT900 will definitely charge through any other case. That said, I don't see why any of those other cases wouldn't work with the DT900. I highly recommend the Nokia DT900 Qi charger!! Don't just take my word for it though, do a Google search for "Nokia DT900" and see for yourself the positive reviews after positive reviews and happy customers for this charger with multiple devices and multiple cases!

I have several cases. None interfere with Qi Charging. I think its max is 5" which is pretty large area. As long as there is no metal in the case.

**pics included** Black Cruzer Case on Amazon fits GSM perfect

I got the black glossy Cruzer case from Amazon and it fits snug and tight...better than my Incipio case I purchased from the Verizon store. The case is nice and durable. The power button and 3 prongs are open and the volume keys are closed with a nice rough texture. The volume keys are very easy to use since they are sealed. I recommend this case to GSM Galaxy Nexus owners and the price is not bad at all.
I gave it a 5 star review on Amazon.
Here is a link...
Check out the other designs Cruzer has... Android print case looks pretty cool too.

Thank you, will order some tonight.

How is the fit and finish, for lack of a better term, of the case? How tightly does it fit around the face and how are the areas around the mold seam?
I'm currently using this Qubits case and while it is quite good, it is not perfect.

The fit and finish is great. It is not loose around the face or around the seams. Im telling you, this fits nice and tight all around the phone.
Sorry guys.... I'll get pics later today...give me about 2 hours.

I have this case and while it fits perfectly it takes away from the look of the phone. Also makes it bulky and just not the same. I have a smoked one if someone wants it. Will sell it for $5.

Sale at Amazon on these
FYI - if you want more than one, you can get three for the price of two at Amazon - use promo code BUY2GONE. Several different colors, two different patterns.

I got black. I didn't care too much about the color though. I only use the case when I am in route from one location to another. When I'm at home or at the office I take the case off.

SupCase Slim Fit Folio Review!

Hey everyone I recently received my SupCase Slim Fit Folio case and am pretty impressed. It isn't like super high quality leather but for the price it's pretty much what you would expect. I have the one with the elastic hand strap on the back and also the stylus holder. I really like being able to use the Nexus 7 in bed when laying down, which is where I spend most of my time using the tablet.
The folio features work as advertised and is pretty sturdy. It really is the generic folio we see for every tablet, but that's not a bad thing because everything seems works pretty well. You can actually buy this without the hand strap or with a hand strap and free stylus holder.
Keep in mind though, anyone using the LMT Launcher or something similar may not be able to use it with the case on because the edges of the case go onto the bezels. Also, just so you guys know, I did receive this product from SupCase prior to the release date since I review these products on YouTube.
If you have any questions just let me know!
great review. great production quality. nice to see a review that doesn't seem to be filmed in the kitchen or bathroom.

Haha thanks man, that review you linked to was hilarious.
Thank you for the review. Have you had a chance to see if any Qi chargers work while the device is in the case?

I don't have a QI Charger, but I don't think so. The Poetic Slimline doesn't work according to Poetic, so I doubt this will.

I bought this case via Amazon for a ridiculously cheap $6. It's now $13 so I just got lucky. The Supcase is really nice. Has a high quality look and feel, fits tight and elegantly, and works perfectly. The magnetic auto on off is very quick and flawless. I haven't tested it with wireless charging but instructions said it won't work while device is inside the case. I really like this case nevertheless!

Any waterproof case out there for Nexus 5?

Can anyone recommend a waterproof case like a lifeproof case or some sort of knockoff or imitation for nexus 5?

this http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/1474003404/Waterproof_case_for_lg_nexus_5.html , but 3 problems
1. there seems to be no covers for the speaker grills, camera opening or the earphone plug
2. the screen cover looks like it dulls and is made of thick-ish plastic so it may become difficult to operate the phone
3. I don't have the money to buy 100 pieces of these...
on second thought I think I will just wait for otterbox or bodyglove to come up with something...

Not sure how waterproof that thing is. There is no port cover at all...I think the seller has no idea what they are talking about.

Only option for a "Water Resistent" case is the Pelican 1040 case. Probably not what you are looking for.
nothing specific
If you need waterproof right now there are generic bag cases such as: Random Generic Water Resistant Bag from Amazon. Which should fit our phones with pretty much any standard case on them.
Still looking for an actual fitted case (not pouch) for N5 which is waterproof. Guess will have to wait a while...

I don't think there is reputable manufacturers out there that is interesting in making ANY waterproof case for ANY Nexus device.
If you search, there is not even one for the Nexus 4.... There are tons of em for iOS device..and some make one for S4..but that's it.
how could that thing be waterproof?

Well, the case itself probably is waterproof, but not the phone in it
Ballistic have made 4 cases for the nexus 5 so far. Maybe they have plans to make a version of their Hydra case for the nexus 5 at some point.

OverBoard Waterproof Case for LG Nexus 5 just found that it might be a safer option lol
It's interesting that LifeProof is not making case for Nexus 5, given that it is one of the most popular phone beside S4.
I like the LifeProof case because of how it looks and function.. it just a case...not a plastic "bag".

QI Charging Case?

Has anyone found a QI Wireless Charging case for the Moto X (VZW Dev Edition if that matters). I have a bunch of chargers for my old phone, but I'm back to a mess of wires everywhere now that I have the Moto X. It's the ONLY thing about this phone that I regret.
All that I've seen so far is the Powermat case (that looks quite bulky). I don't know that the phone was popular enough for other companies to jump in. I'm interested to see if the sale changed that, because this is something that could potentially be of use to me as well.
I believe Incipio makes a Qi case for the Moto X.

Audio-Technica M50's and n5 cases

Do any of you guys use M50 with your Nexus 5? If so, are there any cases out there that will fit the huge headphone jack?
Thanks in advance
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Maybe just look for a hardcase which is opened at the top and the bottom. I've got a Spigen Ultra Hybrid and I take it off everytime I plug in the headphones.
Problem with these cases is that they provide very limited protection.. And I basically listen to music everyday so taking my case off everytime is a hassle.

Maybe look for an extension cable like this?

I'm not sure whether that will decrease the sound quality though
I have this case:
http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Mat...4E3S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1406577724&sr=8-1
The plug does not fit completely in but it fits in well enough that I get a solid connection. It's just a little easier to pull out than usual.

The best case I have seen that work well with the m50's is the Diztronic Matte black case
