Has anyone found any play-through form fit cases for the A100?
Right now I've got a Belkin neoprene sleave that protects it in my bag, but there have been a few times where I've been knocked into and had the tablet go flying, or simply dropped it (thats one slippery device!!). So a play-through form fit case would be perfect.
I contacted a few accessory stores here in Canada but with no luck. Figured someone else out there would have seen SOMETHING.
Thanks
I use the actual Acer case. It's not bad.

A100 Cases

ACER finally has their Accessory store up and showing all the goodies. I bought the CARBON FIBER case which is $40 US. I also have the Black case $30 US but the Carbon fiber is much better quality. Looks like they also have some Silcone cases (bumper cases) they call them.

Nice! The carbon fiber case is exactly what I was hoping to find...as are the bumper cases actually. I find the A100 to be really really slippery, and there have been a lot of times where I'm using it in bed while going to sleep and nodded off...of course dropping the A100 in the process
Luckily it's a tough little beast and survived the short falls from my bed.
Now, the question is...trying to find this stuff in Canada!

I'm not sure what you mean by "play-through", but if you mean a case that lets you use the tablet without removing it from the case, then this one from The Source :

might fit your needs.
It has served me well for the past month.

Yeah, thats exactly what play-through means in the case world
I'll check that out. Thanks.
I JUST ordered the official Acer Carbon Fiber case previously mentioned in this thread. Canadian suppliers started getting them this week and I was able to custom order it from a local computer store. Unfortunately it's on order still with the supplier (Synnex Canada) with no ETA.

this case looks promising, but it is a preorder onle right now.
Best Buy is now selling the Acer cases on their site. Probably cheaper shipping than Acer's 10 buck shipping. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Acer+-+...10275571&skuId=3530371&st=acer case&cp=1&lp=3
Thanks for the link, carbon case is on the way. The tablet keeps sliding down in the Acer naugahide one.

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.

My Acer Carbon Fiber case is backordered, so I decided to try another case instead. But I couldn't decide between them, so I ordered two cases from amazon to try out. Figured since there's not much info on these yet, I might as well be the test subject
These are the 2 cases:

I especially like that there's an elastic strap on the back for you to securely hold the tablet one handed in portrait mode for e-reading type activities.

Yes, I know how to google
I found all of those stores weeks ago, literally all of them, plus some others. Contacted each one and was told they had no clue on ETA, and they wouldn't sell to me until they had stock. So through my office at work I had my boss contact the universal Canadian supplier for these cases, Synnex. We sell computer hardware to corporations, so we order from there all the time, just usually in large quantities. In this case my boss made an exception for me and ordered a single unit.
I got a much better price than these stores
But unfortunately it turned out Synnex didn't get as many in as planned and now I'm stuck waiting for that order. I don't want to cancel because I asked a favour of my boss to order it for me...looks bad on me coming back now saying "uh, can you cancel that?"
But if these rooCase cases come and suck, i'll do just that and buy from one of the stores you mentioned. I've got no experience with any of them. Do you?
So did anyone get a RooCase? Thoughts?
Sorry about that. I totally forgot to post my reviews!!
I now have 3 cases believe it or not. The rooCASE Multi-Angle , The rooCASE Ultra Slim, and the Acer Carbon Fiber.
I also have the "Black Carbon Fiber Film Shield & Screen Protector - Armorsuit MilitaryShield". Please see my previous posts in this thread for links and pictures. They're clearly labeled.
Here's some quick thoughts, and I can do proper reviews tomorrow or Monday.
Black Carbon Fiber Film Shield & Screen Protector for Acer Iconia Tab A100 7-Inch Tablet - Armorsuit MilitaryShield
This is a pretty standard sticker type protector that doesn't offer mch protection beyond scrapes and scratches. But it does look great on the tablet. I've had a few carbon fiber cases and similar protectors for other devices, and they all look the same. If you've seen the official Acer Carbon Fiber portfolio case, this has the same pattern.
It was fairly easy to install, with the only challenge being lining up the separate pieces. There's a huge piece for the back, then pieces to cover all 4 sides.
The screen protector is pretty good. It went on very easily, is meant for our device so there's no custom cutting needed on your part. It fits perfectly.
The tablet looks really good in this skin. But I'm not sure what use it really is. On cell phones the idea is you can keep it in your pocket without scratches from keys and change and what not, but we don't exactly do that with these tablets.
The screen protector on the other hand is great.
rooCASE Multi-Angle (Black) Leather Folio Case Cover with Stand and Elastic Hand Strap
This case is really good. Pretty high quality leather and very well made. It fits the tablet perfectly. The inside seems to be some sort of microfibre cloth and feels great. The elastic handstrap is somewhat useful, but more gimicky than anything else. The stand portion works well. You can leave it on a desk and watch a movie like that easily. Or more functionally, you can use a bluetooth keyboard with the tablet standing up quite well. The lid is also magnetic, so it stays shut when you close the case up. It's not a very strong magnet but it does the job quite well.
rooCASE Ultra Slim (Black) Leather Case Cover Cover with Stand
This case is fantastic. It's the same high quality leather as the above case, same inside microfibre. But it really is very thin. Much thinner than either the above case or the official Acer Carbon Fiber one. There's no magnetic latch, no elastic or anything to hold the case shut. But it really doesn't need it - the case stays closed just fine on it's own. When open the cover folds easily around to the back, and you hardly notice it's there while using the tablet. The right side and top/bottom has some 'extra' leather sticking out about 1/3rd of an inch, because that's how they sewed it shut to keep it so slim. It's hardly noticeable after a few minutes and not a negative at all. The cutouts match up perfectly with the buttons and slots, and unlike the Acer one, there is plenty of protection where there isn't something to access under the case.
Official Acer Carbon Fiber case:
I don't remember much about this off the top of my head (I'm writing this review in the middle of the night because I can't sleep) so I'll edit the post and do a more formal review tomorrow. From what I remember:
The case looks beautiful. It has pretty good protection on the front and back, but the protection on the sides is lacking. There are only a few straps holding the case in. Thickness wise, it's thinner than the Roocase multi-angle, but considerably thicker than the roocase ultra-slim.
So after all that, here's what I decided:
I've got the Armorsuit MilitaryShield skin and screen protector on. The screen protector helps provide ease of mind while using the tablet. And I didn't want to take the skin off since I paid good money for it and it doesn't get in the way of the other proper cases. It also adds some protection to the sides that are exposed in the various cases, especially the Acer case.
Case wise...I'm using the rooCASE Ultra-Slim. It simply feels the best in your hand is the lease obtrusive in use, yet provides great protection. I've dropped the tablet a few times, once onto my tile floor by accident, and the tablet was fine. I love how thin it is compared to the other cases.
Again, I'll do a proper review in the next couple of days with some pictures.
Got questions? Ask away
Looking to get the slimmest case I can. What's the best slim hard case? I had the ringke slim for my nexus 5 and liked it. Looking for something like that for my Moto x. Thanks.

I got the black smoke one they have on the Motorola site. I think its made by Incase. I found it on amazon for cheaper so I bought it there. Its not really black and more like clear smoke. I have the dev edition so it looks good and you can still see through the back and it has that soft touch feel that the ringke slim has on my galaxy nexus. I also like that it does not cover the M dimple on the back.

I have the same one and I like it a lot but I miss the dimple
The power support shell is slimmer than the in case and comes with an anti scratch coating. The shell is nice in that there are no seams on the inside so it has less chance of scratching your phone. Haven't had the chance to really test it as I'm waiting for my moto x replacement but I'll snap some pics afterward. If you are into the hard minimalist case big don't want to introduce scratches, this seems the best option for now.

Received Anker case. Despite being sandy texture, the case is very slippery.
It also does not protect all corners. Highly disappointed, because its look is very nice.
Why don't all cases have the moto indentation on the back confuses me.
i bought both the poetic pallete and the bear motion cases. of the 2, i like the bear motion better with the grippier texture. However, that said, neither fit my phone well at all and won't stay locked into place. YMMV
I have bought the anker sandpaper, incipio feather, poetic, as well as two bumper cases from some HK-based vendor. Of the 3 minimalist "cases", I use the incipio the most. Truth be told, the poetic has a better (but nearly identical) texture to it, but the bottom is shaped in such a way where it digs into my small finger when holding it (I have my finger running parallel along the very bottom). If the incipio kept the dimple, it'd be my daily driver. I use the bumper cases more often than not and whenever I do grab one of the minimalist ones, it's always the incipio.

I have the Incipio Folio which includes a feather. Basically, you have a the feather case, and then you can snap that into a wallet style flip case. The only gripe I have about the feather is it contours to the phone too well... If you have the phone on a flat surface it just spins and flops around if you poke at it.
Been using the neo hybrid for a bit only issue is it adds some bulk because of its square design, also the fact that its not that grippy doesnt help.
Thinking of returning it for a better slimmer case. Any suggestions?
forgot to mentions i am also using the spigen crystal screen protector

For full phone coverage the Diztronic tpu case is fairly thin. For a little less protection the Rinke slim hard case is very thin and keeps the original feeling of the phone.

I've been very pleased with my Spigen ultra fit. Ringke also has a version, and LG is supposed to have a similar one soon as well (there's thread titled LG hardshell).
The Spigen case probably does not offer the same drop protection since it is a plastic shell, but I like that it at least feels like the phone (both colors' feel/texture are well matched to each phone color's feel/texture), and retains the phone's slim design. My only warning would be to add 4 tiny strips of Scotch tape inside the edges of this case, since some people have reported the case scratching their phone sides upon removal.
I do not recommend ultra fit

been researching through all the cases espcially the slim ones. Both spigen and ringkes slim one can scratch up the phone and are really sharp on the edges... might just go naked with screen protector , the black nexus 5 feels so good in the hands =)

Snap on case for Nexus 5
I use this Snap on case for my N5 and it really goes well with the look of my phone and do complete justice with it....the case quality is very fine..fine grip..not slippery..can also lay my phone on the table from screen side no worries..protects the phone from both upper and downward ends...and as it is too a kick stand one so I too enjoy the media viewing on it.....I like this one...so you can give a try to it...may be you like it...
thanks !!!
I use a suede pouch for the Nexus 5. Check out sfbags .
Thank you...Jimmy..I had considered...the Amzer case...indeed the texture looks very grippy...and..the kickstand is a nice feature as well...what do you think..about the durability of the kickstand?...I have read in a few reviews..that the kickstand breaks after the first few uses...let us know..what you think...thanks..
I picked up a couple of $3 cheap Chinese imports from Ebay. TPU, gloss black "bumper" with matte-black back. Super thin, just thick enough to negate the camera lens bump. I wish I could tell you the brands, but "generic" is all that comes to mind. One did have a little seam ridge along the very outside edge - which I took care of with a disposable razor. Just shave it off.

Same here, I ordered a matte black hard plastic case. Exact same feel as the actual phone and is very slim. For 1.68 free shipping how can you go wrong?!
Ringke slim. Feels like the same exact phone with our a case on but providing protection for the lenses

Using Spigen Slim Armor. To me, doesn't add me bulk or weight. The back isn't very slick (although it shows fingerprints and smudges pretty easy, but they wipe off just as easily). I like it, very pleased with it. I did get one of the defective ones, but it was replaced very quickly, and now it's fine.

I bought this case off eBay:
http://m.ebay.com/itm/400619070423?nav=SEARCH&sbk=1
Out of 3 different cases I bought (neo hybrid, bumper, s line) it was the cheapest. To my surprise it also is the best fitting. Felt comfortable in the hand, easy to grip and hold, doesn't feel like its going to slip out of your hand like the neo hybrid.
The neo hybrid is a nice case, but it feels awkward and uncomfortable due to is solid square design. Spigen needs to redesign it with curves around the back for better geip., but it just feels huge to hold in comparison to the eBay one I linked too, and a naked nexus 5

Thanx in advance
I personally use spigen and metal/aliminium bumper. Both are top quality cases. But since i got dbrand skin i cant use bumper. Rest is okay. So i will suggest you spigen and bumper. But didnt use any battery case. (also they re so big and ugly in my opinion)
The only good one I see is the spigen. There are tons out there, keep looking.
That also isn't a genuine Spigen case. It looks like one of the cheap Chinese clones.
You can see the exact same picture here:

I use this one http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Case-Protection-Absorption-Premium/dp/B00EPLTFIS
Very happy with it,my phone took some pretty bad hits but it was ok
Looks good,and you can customize the back with a picture of your choice,there are templates on xda....or just apply some carbon skin on it and still looks good !
try metal/aliminium bumper it will defend the device much great then plastic.
Recommended cases for N5
I just bought a Nillkin Nexus 5 case. Ultra Slim.
Nillkin makes great cases that offer maximum protection with a minimal profile.
And I recommend these:
LG Hardshell Nexus 5 Black (US)
TEMEI Ultra-thin Protective TPU Back Case for LG Nexus 5
Diztronic Matte Back Black Flexible TPU Case for LG Nexus 5
I use the Spigen Slim Armor, its awesome, I have occasionally switched between the Spigon:

And this one: (because its cool looking and I get compliments)

Does someone have the nillkin cover? I want to know if it covers the camera bump or it will still stick out from the back
I have the Nillkin Super Frosted. It protects the camera bump. You can see the circle protecting it in the images below. It could have more of a rubbery feel, but I like it and use it.

It think mine will arrive next week but the nillkin covers that I had for my past phones were always great
I have one. Nice and slim. Minute back bump that really can't be felt. Love their covers. Minimal and slim, just how I like it during in my pocket.
Hey I've got one! Feels great, like a phone without a case. The gold matches well too
Got myself one for 450 INR...feels more premium that the naked phone itself and it came with a free screen guard...so great deal.
