The screen is phenomenal. I don't think there's a screen that can compare right now except for maybe the evo lte. I've never seen a phone with such a beautiful screen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tylerdurdin:
H1X is a bad ass. The only "issue" I ever had with it is the multitasking.... everything else is peoples preference. The OneX is probably one of the nicest phones ever made....right under the SGSII:p....which is still the love of my life:o....but the OneX is right there with it....and to me that is saying a lot.;)

And you can see it in landscape? Sunglasses are polarized?

LCDs use a polarizing film to display the screen images. So the light coming from the LCD is polarized in one direction. If the polarization of your sunglasses are polarized a certain way (opposite, I suppose?) then no light from the display will get through your sunglasses, and the display will appear blank. But don't know why the One X is mostly immune to this. When viewed with polarized sunglasses on, I can still see the One X screen, but some of the colors seem "off". Like there is some polarization effect happening, but not enough to make the whole screen invisible.

Had my hox since pre release on May 4th and never looked back or regretted my descision and not one return or exchange. I love the look of this phone I struggled for months to even put a case on it but since I won one (thanks to metal head:D) I have started to but still damn sexy. The screen is just beautiful even on the brightest days. Coming from the aria where development was low but high quality the development here is top notch and a nice mix of rom options. Last the hox community here on xda is fantastic everyone helps and for the most are quite nice. Honestly I couldn't be happier with my hox.

This is the best phone I've had period..

I have people all the time that see my phone go "what phone is that?"

I also love the conversations with people that believe their iphone is a better phone.. Just whip out my screen shot that has 1day 15hrs on one charge and the conversation is over.

I also like to whip out my screen shot that shows my 30 meg + download

a breath a fresh air from seemingly countless complaint threads.

3 months with the One X and it never leaves my side. It totally replaced my point and shoot (which was crap anyway), not big on photography but the One X is amazing for what it is. and very durable. i bought cases but never use them, i end up taking them off at the end of the day. and this thing has weathered through many beach trips without a single scratch (sand in the pockets are a silent killer.)

I hate the cases that cover the bezel and basically leave only the screen viewable. I find they add bulk, get in the way of your fingers sometimes, etc. This is the thread for cases that don't do this. Preferably these cases have only 2-3 "layers." A lid (or not), the tablet, then the back, and the holding mechanism is typically kind of invisible or unobtrusive. I find it's generally the fourth layer in the middle that goes on top of the bezel or on the back where there's a rotation mechanism that adds the unneeded bulk. Hopefully these cases still allow you to pocket your N7. Personally I'd love some kind of TPU case with a kickstand, but no luck so far.

[Nexus 7 Accessories] neotekz:
All those case are exactly the same except for the Kay's. Theres a few different ones one ebay too. Im waiting for a nice slim case too, one like the poetic smart case.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008IEGS9W/ref=ox_sc_act_title_4?ie=UTF8&smid=A29LLD0WGS56WE

This poetic case differs slightly as it has a hand grip and elastic strap to hold the case closed.

I wonder how it compares to the kayscase one you posted (particularly how the stand holds up to slight shaking on airplanes)

[Nexus 7 Accessories] Troute:
I've been looking at that one myself, nice and slim but too expensive for what it is at £24 inc del (ignoring the vastly over-inflated 'original' price it was never sold at). I'll wait and see what price it ends up being sold for.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] player911:
I have the top one listed. The black. Works good. Adds quite a bit of thickness but comes off easy. I think I'll use it to snap on when I leave the house and run nekkid when at home.

The Smart Cover works very well and doesn't turn the screen off when folded behind. I was wondering what that little lanyard loop was for, stylus. Good to know. Again it is nice that this case can just pop off whenever you need and not requiring any extra effort to get it off like a sleeve or a tight fit. The N7 is pretty snug in there but comes off with little effort.

I have the slim Poetic Smart Case on order. I like a thin profile. So far I've tried a TPU case and this one. As long as the Poetic doesn't have some major flaw, I'll probably switch to that once I get it. Sure it's $20 but I spent $30 for my Ringke Slim for my Galaxy Nexus.

I prefer the cases which allow the 360 degree rotation, so those will be a bit bulkier. Don't mind it though since I prefer the versatility over the slight bulkiness.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] oldpueblo:
There are a few minor differences hence multiple links. Some are different prices, some will be out of stock, some have a stylus loop, some come in different colors, some have a differently designed speaker cutout, etc. So I didn't feel it was redundant.

Waiting for the MoKo to come out with more colors! Love this style but it would be perfect if it had a kickstand in the back for portrait mode. Not sure why anyone hasn't made one like that yet.

Please keep this thread updated! :o I'm still holding out on buying a new case until I find one that's just what I want (I already have a cheapo case protecting my N7 for the time being). Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Accessories] crazifyngers:
I would like something that doesn't snap over the back cover but replaces it similar to what the galaxy note has since the back just snaps off. Here is an example of a very ugly one I can't find the matte black or white ones with a quick google search but they exist link. The only addition I would like to see is the tri fold front cover with magnet to make it a smart cover like this case. If the case had the same outside texture as the stock back that would be a bonus as well. I doubt we will get one though.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] JaZart:
I have the poetic case ams and it works quite well.

It's still thin and pocketable while offering great protection due to the sturdy front cover.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] akarol:
The colored i-Blason cases seem to cover half of the speaker. Anyone own one of these? I'm thinking about getting the blue one. I'd like to know if this is a problem.

Ok, just got this KattWolf Versatile Cover case.

Looks like the same as other Moko, Exotec, Poetic and Blurex.

It's thicker then I expected, but works ok, funny that it covers half of the pogo pins, but I don't care.

Not bad for 5.99 and free shipping.

Now I have not that bad case while waiting for slim smart covers (Such as may be poetic slimline portfolio) to come up.

YooMee

I got this one for $7.99 from Amazon:

YooMee Black Google Nexus 7 Inch Android Tablet Leather Case Cover Folio with Multi-Angle Stand, Stylus Holder Strap and Hand Strap (Black) (WITH Sleep and Wake Function) Pretty identical to the Moko, Exotec, Poetic and Blurex...cases - I think they're all made in the same factory in China!

2 problems with it though. The elastic hand strap interfered with the wake/sleep function - took it off with a seam ripper - wake/sleep function is perfect now.

Also, the stylus holder got in the way of the volume buttons so I snipped that off as well.

Does the job, but would like to see something more form fitting and "futuristic".

[Nexus 7 Accessories] tom_yellowblue:
I got one of the KattWolf ones from Amazon when they were $5.99.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008OVIRSO/

Here's my Amazon review...

I got this for under ten dollars so my review is based on that cost. The first one I received had a problem waking up the Nexus 7 and putting it to sleep when the cover was opened/closed. I emailed KattWolf and they sent me a replacement that arrived today. The auto sleep/wake works now. Good customer service.

Nexus 7 without case: 10mm thick, 12oz (yes, I'm mixing English/metric units)

Nexus 7 with case: 23mm thick, 17.5oz

This case doubles the thickness of the tablet, but the other cases I looked at almost tripled the thickness. I like this one because the six little grips do not cover the bezel and don't interfere with my use of the tablet. When you pop out the two grips on the left you can prop up the tablet in landscape mode using either of the two grooves.

None of the ports/buttons are blocked. With the case closed the left microphone is blocked, but as soon as you open it up to actually use the tablet the microphone is exposed. The holes for the speaker go across the entire speaker.

Negatives:

* The latch is a little stiffer than I was expecting. I'm confident it won't accidentally pop open though. At first it felt a little odd because it sticks out a bit when the case is opened, but I got used to it pretty quickly. Note that if you put the opened tablet on a table it doesn't sit quite flush because of the latch.

* It has a hand strap that I could do without since I don't see myself using it. Maybe I'll cut a piece of microfiber cloth and tuck it in there so I'll have it handy to clean the screen.

None of the negatives would stop me from buying the case again. Overall I'm very happy with it.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] rukiri:

This looks like the ideal case I would like but the lack of information and shipping from China leaves me not wanting to get that one. I would LOVE a case that just clips around the entire edge of the device like how that official grey case on the play store does, except with a kickstand and maybe a grip on the back. Whoever said that the back of the Nexus 7 was easier to grip lied.

I can't post links yet but type in item number 160871994588 into eBay and that's the one I bought! I got it in orange (very snazzy...) and I can't fault it in any way for how much it cost! It protects the device very well, magnetically closes to secure the front cover in place and also features the "smart screen auto on/off" very effectively. Only down point of the case is that it can be liable to locking the screen when you fold the cover behind the device when in use, but you just learn to hold it in a way that it won't do it ;)

One other thing is to be prepared for waiting for the delivery. Despite them clearly stating how long it would take to deliver, it was still frustrating having to wait for it! I ordered it on Sunday 12th August and it arrived on Saturday 25th, so if you're prepared to wait that long then I say go for it as I doubt you can get a case of equal quality that doesn't impact on the aesthetic beauty of the Nexus 7 for any cheaper! :o

I have the rotating case. Feels like decent quality however it can only stay up in about two positions, the rotating mechanism stops it from lying flat when on its back and makes the Nexus too thick. I bought a Poetic like case off eBay instead and discarded the rotating one.
