Recently picked up a Mediapad M5 Lite 8". Having a hard time finding a case for it.
Looking for something like this. I don't want any kickstands or anything like that, just the linked type, specifically for the M5 Lite 8". A regular folio case without folding front would work aswell.
In the link, there's an option for "M5 MediaPad M5 8". I'm assuming thats the 8.4" version, since there's no 8" non-Lite version afaik. There are however alternatives for other 8" models. Does anyone happen to know if any of them would fit the M5 Lite 8" aswell?
Also, I need something available from an EU supplier, since the Swedish postal service has started charging an outrageous fee for handling parcels from non-EU countries.
Universal covers always fits badly, and I can't stand those elastic fasteners in the corners, so that's not an option.
Thanks in advance

So I got a 10.1v model, not the standard 10.1 so pretty much any keyboard that would need the tab to slide into it is a no-go for me as the 10.1v is a few milliliters thicker.
So, unless you point me to anything else, this is the only keyboard I've encountered that I could use that is somewhat "tied" to the tablet :

These are chinese products and I'm afraid of its quality, but I don't have a choice.
Did one of you guys purchased one of these ? Are they any good ?
I tried to find something but nothing...I could go with a "floating" bluetooth keyboard is the quality is better.
Thanks !
I used this one for while, until I returned it- no complaints. I just didn't need it.

I have the original Keyboard-Case combo, meaning this:
uh can't post links, so here is the name: Samsung BKC-1B1DEBGXEG Bluetooth keyboard ...
Go out and buy it, it's awesome!
Bluetooth connection is really easy, it has a fast wake up (and you can wake your device up by pressing any key [this even unlocks a non-protection screenlock] whoo!) and a humongous long battery duration.
Additionally, the build quality is very fine!
Rate it 6 of 5 stars
Got this case for $60 at Target. works great.

Thinking that this might be stupid / crazy..
Well, I dont know whether this is the best thread to post this.. Please let me know if there's any other thread that to which this post has to be moved..
So my crazy / stupid question is ---
Has anyone tried using the asus keyboard dock with the samsung galaxy tab ?
I think this may be something stupid becoz i am already thinking that the charging port for both the tabs are totally different and this may not work at all..
Still I am just curious to know whether this has been tried by anybody...

To answer the OP's question... I just got one from eBay for $26 US. It works very well. For that much money, it's hard to beat. Your CDMA GT should fit in it just fine. Both the keybaord and the case are good quality, and can't be beat for that much money.
I do see one potential problem, however. When the case is latched closed the rubber (soft plastic) bracket that supports the base of the tablet comes into contact the screen and does exert a slight amount of pressure on the screen. Over time I am guessing that may damage the screen, but I'm just guessing - not sure about that at all.
Actually, I like the standard Samsung book case the best for the Galaxy Tab, and I don't always need the keyboard. So I'm going to take the little rubber keyboard out of this case and carry that separately. For $26, even that is a great buy.
This case/keyboard is sold under a bunch of brand names. Here is a bunch of reviews on Amazon, if you like to read them.
Hey Dan,
I've been using the Mobile Keyboard 6000 from Microsoft for a few weeks now.
The price is a bit overkill but sure worth the quality you get. And the number pad being detached from the letters is a nice feature if your on the go all the time, leaving the number pad behind is sometimes a plus. It is slightly bigger then the tablet itself but i don't mind since also use it for at home.
Ive been rocking the typing book cover for 2 days now, and so far i like it aside from a few things. But its not putting me off of it with its sleek tight fit.
The main issue is that there is no place to hold a stylus. (PS definitely worth the 20 bones to pick one up) and second, when it is being held in its typing arrangement, you cannot have anything plugged in besides the headphones. It does have a small slit so that the headphone jack doesn't have to be removed and put back in every time but they didn't do the same for the charger/accessory port.
Cheers!

I just picked the same one up at Target for $30 on clearance yesterday. Not a fan and I wouldn't recommend it. The cookie-sheet case feels flimsy and it doesn't protect the back of the tablet at all. The metal edges are kind of sharp (not knife sharp) but I have to be careful not to scratch the sides of my tab when putting it face down in this case. I also don't feel that it's very secured when closed (tablet face down). The keyboard works alright, it's very responsive, and it pairs easily and maintains it's connection, but some of the dedicated buttons don't work. I also would rather re-map some of the android keys such as the email button to open gmail. Maybe I can, but haven't looked into it. I guess it's ok if you're looking for a cheap bluetooth keyboard, but I don't trust it to protect my tablet. Idk how logitech justified this as a $100 case.
**edit** Been using this case with the blueputdroid app on my phone as a mouse and am loving it!
Has anyone tried this case on Ebay? It looks a little thicker than I was hoping for. Im trying to find the most portable keyboard I can pair with my Note. I carry it around the office a lot, and it would be nice to have a thin, light keyboard integrated into the tablet as a case/stand.

Um using one for my note and after a lot of research I found out that no better alternative is available as our note lacks heavily in the accessory department( as samsung itself never releases any good accessory for this marvel piece of engineering). Using it for 3 months and the keyboard works flawlessly though the case is not an example of perfection. Still I recommend you to buy this product as it adds beauty to the note and also it is the thinnest case available in this category. Have a look with the note 10.1 inside the case.

Agree keyboard is fine but build quality poor. Also only really has one position for tablet tilt.
There is also this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Samsung-G...73?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item487f2c8435 and this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Black-For...619?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item5d54e37e13, neither of which is so preposterously expensive.
Hi everybody.
I'm Beate from germany.
The stylus m-pen is a fine tool, I use it for handwriting apps. But last week it tumbled on the floor and the pin was broken.
Huawei told me that there are no spareparts available and I should buy a new one. What? Those gooks.
Any idea?
How to pimp the pin, how to create my own one? I'm a goldsmith, but which material should I use?
Compatible pens?
Any experiences?
Thanks, best regards, Beate
Hi,
active stylus pens are in fact quite costly. There are some compatible ones to be found on Amazon. All are around 35 EUR, and some even come with spare nibs as e.g. this one:
https://www.amazon.de/dp/B013GI3LAS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_HERCxbWSMSZFS
Sorry that I can't provide any better information.
Greetings
Sent from my HTC 10 using XDA Labs
Compatible with Huawei Mediapad M2 10": Wacom Bamboo Smart CS-320 (NOT CS-310 which is only for Samsung Galaxy Note).
(Actually this comment was written on an M2 using the above mentioned pen.)

Huawei M-pen
Hi Beate, I too have a M-Pen that is in need of a replacement nib. I actually wore mine out with use, drawing mostly. I have tried making a new one from Samsung's s-pen tips and ones from the Microsoft Surface stylus, both with no success. I believe these are made from a conductive plastic and or rubber. Huawei's M-pen appears to be made from glassfibre coated in something.
I now plead with anybody who might have any information about the material used for these nibs. I am a craftsman so I have the ability to make a new one from most materials, I just need to know WHAT material. Better still something I can buy that us compatible, Maybe made for a digitizer stylus?
Nibs
These nibs are fully compatible with M-Pen nibs: Wacom REPLACEMENT NIBS FOR CS-320, ACK21716 (for Bamboo Smart CS320AK). Unfortunately they are kind of hard to find...
Thank you
I have managed to find dome of the elusive nibs from a parts supplier (NAASMALLS) I tried most of the european Amazon sitres plus a few more worldwide sites to no avail. So i now have a pending delivery i shall update when this arrives
Hi al,
my girlfriend want a cover for her Huawei p8 lite.
Specifically, she wants the "Qubits Roxie" that appears to be available only for iPhone...
To make it worse, I can hardly keep het from actually buying an iPhone, just so she can use that specific cover
Is any compatibility tool/web service that enables one to look for covers that fit multiple devices?
Or does anyone know of a "Qubits Roxie" cover that will fit the Huawei p8 lite?
It certainly would save me a lot of money, so I'll buy a beer for anyone that can actually find one.
Thanks in advance!
buy the Iphone , your girlfriend deserves the Qubits Roxie cover
You got to be kidding me...

Hi all, its been a while since my last thread here at XDA. I´ve been enjoying a lot my RN4 and honestly didn´t find the need or time to mod it. However, it´s been more than two years now using it and it feels more and more slow. Yes, I know, I could put a custom ROM into it and make it fly again, but I was looking at upgrading it, so I can pass my RN4 to my father.
A few months ago I was also checking out the RN7, a great phone spec-wise, but it lacked the Metal Frame. A video on YouTube from JerryRigEverything showed how fragile the phone is when bent. Another tech-tuber from India (maybe tech guruji?) also showed the same thing, the phone isn´t built to resist heavy mechanical stress. And since I need the phone to resist at least 2 years I was looking for a phone with the specs of the RN7 but more robust. Out of nowhere Xiaomi presents the RN8, and I was like: WHAT?!
Phone looks OK, for the price offers a lot IMO. All the features a geek would want. I was looking for the NON-PRO version, since it has SnapDragon. My question is this, does anybody know if the phone has a Metallic OR Plastic frame? Guess I´ll have to wait a bit to find out...
Same plastic material what make youbthink they will put metal on even cheaper phone......metal ia way more expensive....
If you want metallic frame go for Mi A3

Redmi note 5 pro, Redmi note 6 pro and some others have mostly metal bodies.
