[Nexus 10 Accessories] tvBilly:
Mine came today too, and I'm also very happy with it. Everything fits as expected, and at the price, it was a steal (I purchased from Amazon when it was $5 with free shipping, but I would still buy it at the current $10 price). I don't have much to add to your post, which was accurate and has lots of great pictures. (Thanks!). My "piece that is supposed to keep the unit closed" is a bit longer than yours, and it does hold the cover in place firmly and doesn't stick out as much as yours does. Sorry for no picture (maybe when I get home), but it's long enough that it goes completely around the plastic top edge, almost reaching the removable perforated piece on the back of the N10. So I haven't felt the need to use the elastic band (which the Poetic has too, Techie2012); I actually thought the elastic band was designed to be used when the cover was folded completely back, so that it doesn't flop around... My lower clips are a bit snug now too, though time and technique will probably help. I'd rather have them a little snug than a little too loose. I think I'm going to remove the stylus loop which for some strange reason annoys me.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] TheEmpyre:
What exactly is the elastic band for? Still can't figure that out
[Nexus 10 Accessories] phoenix79:
Yeah, I forgot to mention the elastic strap. I've been using it to hold it when I've had it completely open. Also, there is what I've been using as a "grip strap" on the back to help hold it while you have it open while in portrait mode.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] TheEmpyre:
Hmm guess I'll have to use it a bit more and see what is up. I did notice that larger strap on the back. Does seem perfect for gripping when in portrait
[Nexus 10 Accessories] fooldog01:
I got my Poetic case today too. One thing worth noting, it seems to not have a magnet for sleep/wake but it still appears to trigger sleep/wake when you open or close it. I suspect a proximity sensor does the task. Can anyone confirm this?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] TheEmpyre:
I figured out that the elastic strap for the poetic is indeed to keep the back tethered to the device when using portrait orientation. And as for the sensor or magnet, I'm guessing it is a magnet because it definitely locks my device when I close it, and wakes it yup when I open it
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Techie2012:
Yes the Poetic hardback is identical to the Blurex with the exception that it has the name Poetic etched on the front and the clip is a bit longer providing a much more secure closing than the Blurex.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] espionage724:
I had a game that was supposed to work off of proximity sensor, but didn't. Not sure if the N10 just doesn't have such a sensor, or if the game itself just wasn't compatible.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Techie2012:
Forgot to mention that both covers are missing the keyhole to see the notification LED, if that's important to you.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] seigneurao:
Oh.

That's a bit silly.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Techie2012:
What exactly is silly?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] CazeW:
Ordered one as well. Try to pressure your friend to take those pics. ;)
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Techie2012:
I'm not crazy with the way the closing tab sticks out hanging when the tablet is in use
[Nexus 10 Accessories] fooldog01:
I ran a magnet across the cover feeling for any attraction or repulsion but didn't notice any. If there is a magnet, it must be weak. Oh well, it works so I guess it doesn't matter.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] seigneurao:
To hide the LED.

It doesn't require a big hole, and it defeats the whole purpose of a LED : being able to know if anything happened on your tablet without opening/switching it on.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Royal2000H:
Are we talking about the Poetic Hardback. According to pictures, it indeed does cover the notification LED when the cover is closed, but when the screen is visible, you can see the notification LED. It seems like it would be odd to manufacture a hole into the cover part as its job is to protect externally. At least they didn't cover the LED from when the cover is open like they did on another Poetic case.

I don't understand why no one so far is using the removable region of the Nexus 10. That seems like it would solve problems like the need to remove tabs on the bottom when opening like on the Poetic Hardbook and similar cases.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] seigneurao:
It's just a matter of time I think.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Sycobob:
I'm probably going to get flamed for this, but where the hell is the OEM smart cover?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] TheEmpyre:
Google featured it in a video I watched but I think they were holding off... many speculate that it's so apple won't lose their minds and file another copyright suit for their iBull**** cover... But that's speculation, same with the pogo pin charger
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Sycobob:
Gotcha. So the takeaway is that no one knows. That's a bummer because it looks perfect. I understand the potential lawsuit regarding the smart cover but what does Apple have that they could sue over the pogo charger?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] gwenny:
Really? I'm in the US and amazon says it won't be available until the Dec 27th...and my order says the same thing...what the heck?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] jagsaw:
Make sure you are not looking at amazon.uk
[Nexus 10 Accessories] ew2x4:
Just got my Poetic Case. I love it. Great fit.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] gwenny:
Odd...I'm pretty sure I'm on US Amazon....and yet...nothing. We are talking about the SLIMLINE right?

Screenshot of what I'm seeing:
[Nexus 10 Accessories] J.Guido85:
There's 2 versions, slimline and slim book. The slimline doesn't release until the 27th. That's the version most of us are waiting for.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] xperiax10.awesome:
Is there any simple n slim mettalic back cover available for Nexus 10???

I really dont to make my tablet bulky using complete covering cases...

from the Giant Killer Samsung Note 2
[Nexus 10 Accessories] gwenny:
How come this guy's post says slimline then? I'm so utterly confused. Oh well....in the end, I have to wait :crying:
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Gilbot:
I have the same case for my tab 7.7, its awesome and classy lookin'.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Techie2012:
Still quite happy with my Poetic hardback, which will be used on a trip to protect the device. But I am looking forward to the Slimlline delivery in January!
[Nexus 10 Accessories] starfcker69:
I have an old Acer A500 Poetic hardback case. Fits the N!0 good enough for now - glad I didn't throw it away after selling the A500. The openings on the back don't align properly.

I have this on order from Amazon for $9.99:

"Poetic HardBack Protective Case for Google Nexus 10 (With Auto Sleep/Wake Function) (3 Year Warranty by Poetic)"
[Nexus 10 Accessories] tyhe314:
I am pretty sure I read that the OEM introduced with the Nexus 10 when they announced it had been canceled. It was well received during a market test but they hit a snag and scrapped the project. Now what is peculiar is that Google/Samsung designed this tablet to work with accessories that are not out yet and have no announcement to when they will release anything. I mainly talking about the pogo charger but also the rubber strip on the top is made to be taken off and out fitted with something (whether it be a case or some other kind of accessory). Anyone know why Google/Samsung is being so hush hush about this matter? Is it just a lack of experience on Google (and arguably Samsung) on how to market mobile devices?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] xperiax10.awesome:
I heard somebody saying that Google/Samsung is remaking the Flip Covers as the one shown in videos are actually very cheap looking !!

Hope to see something good by X-mas..
[Nexus 10 Accessories] orellius:
Don't feel like starting a new thread on this particular product, and don't care about the previous arguments for or against using a screen protector...

Just wanted to point out that Ghost Armor is now available.

I'll probably order one and get it installed at a kiosk. Just the screen protector, still awaiting a Otterbox Commuter for the rest.

Based upon using a Zagg on my HTC sensation, and not wanting the orange peeling on my nexus, and Zagg not having a HD line for nexus, and complaints about the HD line adhesive and yellowing.

Don't like the way the flap hangs out on top when in use. Also the logo on the back looks like a thumbs down.

[QUOTEAlso. Trident states that they will NOT be making any cases for the Nexus 10.[/QUOTE]

I refuse to let them say no to a trident case I for one am a huge fan of these cases and want one badly for my nexus 10. I have sent them an email begging them to manufacture these cases. I was told to email them and I did. If you are like me and want one please email them maybe if we flood them out with requests (one per person not spamming) they will concede.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] indianajonze:
a few people mentioned this case here, so i just wanted to share my opinion

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007R3Z4N6/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

it's a decent enough case, it fits fine but is maybe a little snug a the zippered parts. still, scratching the nexus 10 is not a concern as there is a lip of padding around the zipper when closed.

all this being said, there is a HUGE problem with this case. it REEKS! the case has a horrific chemical smell that won't go away after 3 days of airing out. the smell is so powerful it lights up a room. what's worse, the stink has transferred to my nexus 10! i aired it out yesterday and today the smell on the tablet is much less, but it's still there. no idea what they did to build this case, but i would avoid it like the plague
[Nexus 10 Accessories] jbag:
I just got the blurex case, its my first night using it but it feels really nice. I like how it holds the case in padded fingers, has magnetic on/off and a place for a stylus.

2 setting stand and a place to put your hand in if you are walking around or something, maybe go for a jog woth it :P . Im happy with it, its what i was looking for. Im still picking a keyboard but i think ill get a logitech one.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] babywarez:
What logo man? this is the cut for the camera. Btw, I don't like it either but I think it can be cutted easily.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Bru87tr:
If anyone is looking for a good deal on a case, this one looks pretty good and at the price many of them were before they were released. Not sure if it is good but a bit over $5 shipped is a great deal, I bought one and hope it works out good.

Has anyone tryed the book cover from the galaxy note 10.1/tab on the nexus 10? I think it would fit.

Oh god, why... I love this case :/ I'll have to wait for an official nexus 10 case release... I don't really like the existing ones, but the Poetic Slimline Portfolio...

What's with all these damn look-alike flippy cheap cases and crap. I just want to pay a whole **** load of money for a quality Otterbox or something damnit. How many times do I have to Twitter and Facebook those people until they make one. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD SOMEONE GIVE ME A QUALITY DURABLE CASE.

[Nexus 10 Accessories] Kalebima:
Got my Poetic Durabook from Amazon today, at only ten bucks I figured why not give it a try. It has the great feature of being able to display in both portrait and landscape because of the velcro strips on the inside and fits the tablet almost perfectly. All the cutouts are spot on, the case looks really well made, and most of all it provides a good amount of protection so I can feel comfortable throwing it in my bag when I'm on the go.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] irishrally:
I bought these two cases:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004QEI1R0/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00

This fits very well, looks great, plently of room when zipping, offers little protection against drop, BUT it had this terrible smell, like a musty/mold or something else that smells really unhealthy. So bad I threw it away and requested a refund from Amazon. I read some review saying the same about the smell but ignored it because it was only one person and figured they got a bad one. Buy at your own risk.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007R3Z5E4/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00

This case doesn't fit quite as well lengthwise, leaving very little room when zipping it closed. It closes okay, you just have to be more careful than I'd like to be when zipping it up. The case is very plain looking and not attractive at all. The casecrown suede looks much better, but this one offers more protection.

I'm not happy with either case and will use the second one until I find something different.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] DanP47:
Any US people got their Poetic Slimline yet? If so, what's it like?

People in the UK who have ordered it, has anyone's been despatched yet? I just got this in an email from Amazon:

What's going on?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] springy:
I got the same email.. hmm I guess it is Amazon policy, probably need to reorder it after the date they cancel it.. LOL
[Nexus 10 Accessories] bigbamboo5:
I got my order in when it was £4.95 - will we have to reorder at the new, higher price?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Bru87tr:
The Mobile Edge case is really good.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] eager27:
I got it too, and ordered when it was low price - and will be really peed off if then price goes up as a result

---------- Post added at 07:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:01 PM ----------

I've emailed poetic. The amazon page now says they won't be in stock until 31.12.12 - which means my order will be cancelled.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] cadiken:
I ordered one and received it two days ago. The one I got was from istore ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/White-HardB...0-/350660956194?ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:US:1123 ) but looks like the same case. This is a very nice case. It fits nice but not too snug. The flap on the front I thought was going to be a problem but when you fold the front to the back the flap holds the front to the back using the magnets (just like in the front but reversed). No logo or anything on the back, nice clean finish. Using it with the front cover as a stand the flap does just hang there though. Not too concerned about this as I don't use it that way much anyway.

Can you also confirm if the case smells funny?

For those getting amazon warning emails on the Poetic Slimline case, here is the response to my email from poetic (I asked if it would ship before the relevant period expires, and if not, would they still honour the earlier reduced price if I re-ordered following Amazon's cancellation?):
[Nexus 10 Accessories] DanP47:
For me, 37 days just happens to be the 27th. Hope I don't have to reorder it, who knows when it'll arrive then.

They've made a bit a of hash of this release, though not quite on Google's scale. They should have made it a preorder rather than a normal order, as surely the 37-day rule wouldn't have applied then.

PDair (Real) leather cases

Well, I've been holding out for a quality leather case and I think I found two. The price seems to scream quality, the price is on par with most vaja leather cases ($100). So far no reviews, I may just pick one up. I did email vaja to see if they plan on making a case. If they say no I'm getting one of these.

[Nexus 10 Accessories] Bru87tr:
I just got mine today and I like it, especially for the price.

The onky thing I didn't like is the right speaker doesn't have the same correct cutout as the left side.

Magnetic sleep function is nice and keeps it closed pretty well.

Super deal!!!
[Nexus 10 Accessories] three west:
ouch, I like the leather feel of my Poetic case, its got a 3 year warranty, and I could get 8 of them for the price of one of those.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] fbrozovic:
I ordered the Noreve leather case for the N10 from Noreve's website. It's $103.42, a bit less expensive than the PDair one, and they have free shipping to all countries in the world. I've always liked the look of their cases, and if you want, you can even order a custom-made one in different colors. They should be getting them in tomorrow (on the 28th), and hopefully I'll get it on Monday so I can post some pictures of it here.

It's 'Poetic UK', though, so I imagine not. They're probably just covering themselves over the holiday period...

[Nexus 10 Accessories] fbrozovic:
Unfortunately not, they seem to have it in stock right now (listed as 'available'), but they haven't shipped my order yet. Once they do I'll probably get the package in a few days, which means I could (hopefully) have it by the end of next week.

As a European I wasn't able to get the poetic hardback case, and since I was really in need of a case and i wanted one that doesnt cover the bezel, I purchased this nameless case on amazon Germany... for a whopping 35 euros ex shipping.

Seeing the pictures of the poetic case posted by someone in this thread, it turns out this is the exact same case. So it looks like somebody is making big profit selling the low priced poetic cases to Europeans that can't get it from the us..

Anyway what I do like about the case is that it does a great job protecting the device, its really sturdy and the clambs are almost impossible to bend. What I really hate is that you have to get the n10 out of the lower clambs to make it stand. Plus I think it looks ugly since the clambs stick out. Also I really don't need the stylus holder..
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Rock-&-Roll-Hedgehog:
Seidio said they are making a decision on whether or not to make a case for the Nexus 10 at the moment. I love their Nexus 7 case so fingers crossed they go ahead.

I picked this one up until I get a fancier one. I rated it a 4. Not really sure if it's leather, but the overall quality is excellent. The tablet fits nice and snug, all ports are easy access. Comes with a stylus holder. It was only $18! Magnetic closure, and auto wake function. It comes in brown also.

I got the same case but in brown. the outer layer does appear to be leather, but the inner area that holds the tablet looks and feels more like plastic vinyl. it isn't a bad case for the price even if it isn't real leather. Only way to find out is to try to burn it. if it melts its Vinyl.
