too bad its coming from china, but this may be my next case. they have all sorts of different color gradients
This looks really cool actually.
I would be so paranoid that my phone was wet
I purchased one of those cases a week ago, yet to come but hopefully it will fit with the extended battery
real nice.. anyone as a pic of how it would look like for the black back-ed galaxy nexus?
I got it from here, at much lower price and free shipping.

I'd really like to see this case with LTE Gnex.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Nice but it doesnt cover the bottom fully right
it doesn't fit the extended battery.
Sorry for the double threads but I figured this will be better to get opinions. Can everyone say their favorite case for the lte version gnex? Pictures would be great. Also is it a dust magnet? My last case actually scratched my phone a lot by drawing dust into the case.

my favourite is .....
this is called case mate creature case. this is pure silicon(high quality..not like your usual cheap eBay silicon cases)...lil bit of dirt magnet....the best part is the design engraved on the back of the cover...protects the phone very well...no scratches whatsoever...

That's a great work case I'd imagine. I can't seem to find a nice small case
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Unfortunately it seems that the case makers jumped on the gsm version and assumed the lte version would be close enough.
Even with its problems, the ultra hybrid is still my favorite. It's pulled away a touch at the top and the back does get a little loose when hot, but it's not really that bad. I like how it doesn't have cutouts for the buttons, which I like. It feels the least like a case of any I've seen.

Was about to buy the ultra capsule. It seems bigger than I thought. Seems about the size of my active. The search continues.

Does one exist?
I haven't done any extensive search but I looked the other day and stopped at some kind of plastic pouch.
So I don't think so. I'd try eBay, maybe some Korean or Chinese seller has one.

I wouldn't trust a ziploc bag to last anytime submerged. MAYBE against splashes, but I'd rather use something more reliable.

While those are. Both nice, unless u are using PGM which needs a comvatibke corner. How would u turn the screen on and off. And the aqua skin is almost identical to the iottie, except u only get one at 1/3 the price

I personally have taken my phone under water using a generic water proof bag. They were 3 for $10 USD. the only problem I had was if the water put pressure on the screen it would go crazy..... I just added more air to it and held it so I had to push through the air to select what I want. Ie picture or video

Here's a short video I took so u can get an idea of how it is underwater also.

Well but the skin is definetely not made for a daily use i reckon, I mean to make sure it is 100% waterproof you always have to use a new strip of sealing tape after charging, right?
Would be good to have a modified battery cover for contactless charging. I´m starting to work on a diving base for the next 2 months, and would be good to have something covering my GNx from water.
I wish lifeproof would make a case for us.

This is true. The lifeproof case cost over a million USD to develop, and they lucked out that the iPhone 4s was compatible. Not nearly enough people own enough Gnex to make it profitable, plus the GSM would need a completely different case from the LTE. FInally, my own experience with the case sucked. You can only take it off/on 50x before it breaks (not waterproof) and it destroys sensitivity. It's something you only want when theres water around, but you can only take it off/on 50x which sucks. Also, you have to test it every time before you submerge it. The waterproof bags are way better IMO.
Has anyone seen any hard shell cases yet? I have looked around some have seen a few for the 1st gen nexus but none for the 2nd gen.

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

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.

Poetic Revolution Nexus 7 2013 Case
KAYSCASE Nexus 7 2013 Case
CruzerLite Nexus 7 2013
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.

Found a vendor on amazon selling the white version.
http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Officia...7QO6/ref=pd_sim_sbs_pc_1?tag=androidpolice-20
Here is the same in black:
http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Officia...05&sr=8-12&keywords=asus+nexus+fhd+7+official
So I've purchased a black one and will be doing a review of it when i get it later this week. It does not appear to have the magnetic auto wake function, as stated before by others do to the patent being held by another company.

For an offical case it's not pricey. Take the flip cover for the note 8. It's 50 dollars. Every offical case out there is double what the aftermarket ones are. If not more. I'm buying because it's the offical case so I'm already expecting a premium.

I just found out this case doesn't support auto wake/sleep feature
I mean come on Asus!!! for a $40 case you couldn't add a piece of magnet!!!
This case and the travel case are both just big fails. Although I don't mind getting ripped off on OIM cases but at least I want to get a "premium" case.
