Alright, here we go, a quick overview of the Incipio Feather Case for Xperia Z Tablets

The thing comes in a slim plastic package and includes a soft rag and nifty screen protector (it has holes for the camera/sensor). I'm going to install an Armor Suit protector so I can't say too much about the Incipio one.

The package is dirty and beat to hell because I ordered it used from Amazon. More on that soon.

When removing the contents, be careful not to damage the screen protector, the package's flaps are sharp and may gouge it. It may also scratch the cover itself, but hey, that's what it's for

The cover is made of Plextonium, which sounds fake, but Incipio put an official-looking Plextonium symbol on the package that looks straight out of the periodic table, so it's gotta be legit. rofl

Wat? There's even a Stealth Fighter and a Feather and the corner of a goddamn Ruler on there just to show you how badass the case is.

The cover is sturdy but flexible, it's a beautiful smoky grey color that looks a bit like powder coated metal. I think it's molded in that color so there's no need to worry about rubbing paint off at the corners, but we'll see. It feels as soft as finely sanded clay or plastic, not very grippy but not slick either.

Here's a shot of the sides. The left and right sides are mostly uncovered, the SD card slot is covered.

READ THIS IT'S IMPORTANT.

Installing the case is very simple, it snaps on in a few seconds and doesn't pose any serious risk to scuffing the XTZ. Taking it off can be dangerous though. Lives may be at stake. Use extreme caution or the world may blow up.

DO NOT remove the case starting at the top left corner. You run the risk of bending the case at that thin part where the IR hole is.

I bought this case used from Amazon, it was like $15 cheaper because it had "cosmetic damage". As soon as I saw the small stress marks and deformity in the case I knew exactly what the previous owner had done, they removed the case roughly and bent it at that thin bridge by the IR.

By the way, this is what Amazon considers "cosmetic damage", the ****ing thing was drastically bent and I had to gently reshape it back to a less infuriating angle lol. Once on the tablet, the case looks good, it naturally straightens itself out.

There's no way I'd pay $35 retail for this cover, $10-$15 is reasonable. It looks nice enough but in the end it's just a bendy piece of plastic. there's more plastic in my sandals and they only cost $5 lol.

If you have the money to throw around, this is the slimmest nicest looking case you can get. Otherwise, get yourself a cheap one from China and cover it in stickers. It's all good baby. :)

Labato Case Review

I've got my Labato Case for XTZ today,

Here is my review.

Labato Case for Sony Xperia Tablet Z with White and Gray Ribbon

My Score 8/10

First impression

The case is of great design and pretty decent quality. They price is reasonable. (US$ 16-20 on most online stores, I got mine with 17USD free shipping from ebay). Good protection with almost completely cover the tablet on all sides except for the ports. Very slim and beautiful design.

Specifications

Size: 27 cm x 17.8 cm

Thickness: ~9 mm on plastic cover, ~12 mm on thickest leather parts.

Weight: 250 g including packing, ~200 g without packing

Included in box: 1 Labato Case, 1 microfibre cloth, 1 screen protector (unbranded)

Material: Leather front, Polycarbonate back,

Pros

Slim, Light weight, Beautiful design, High quality, Value for money, Access to all ports except sim and micro sd cards, Magnetic smart cover,

Cons

Can't close cover while charging; The front cover tends to open wakes the screen when held in upright position or inside loose backpacks; The glued leather flap is not perfectly made, it's a little skewed; That flap makes the tablet wobbly while laying flat;

Minor Flaws

The camera is not at the exact centre of the hole (it doesn't affect at all for taking pictures, just look less premium)

The power button is exposed a little bit so it won't be protected very well, (the exposed part is very thin, it doesn't likely to be pressed accidentally)

Conclusion

Overall, it is a excellent case with great design and good quality, The main feature of this case is the slimness. The xperia tablet z is the thinnest tablet in the world. Shouldn't the case for it be one of the slimmest as well?

I'm sorry that I can't post photos yet but you can find them in search engines or online stores as "Labato case for XTZ with white and gray ribbon" easily.

They have grey/black Brown/black red/black white/black pink/black
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Hagar76:
I am wondering if there is a fast charge adapter that is a simple small unit that contacts the side charging points and perhaps has a flat piece at the back and smaller section at the front with some rubber/sticky type material that grips the unit to hold contact. This would allow fast charging whilst in the cheap eBay case that I have, and others I suspect, as the flat pieces would slip in between the case and tablet front and back. Wish I could draw it.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Hagar76:
Ok, so i like some of the keyboards from Rapoo and Logitech.

If I want a nice case that will house the keyboard and the tab with the plastic shell rather than the leather surround, what should I be looking at?
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] siralien:
Just bought myself a 32GB white Tab Z and looking for a case.

Anyone have any experience with the new Krusell MALMö cases? They look slim :)

Try Poetic Case - very good !!
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] siralien:
I have considered the Poetic, but would prefer a white case to match the tablet. It's definitely on the list though.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Zaim2012:
I'm interested in the Poetic slim case, only issue is its no longer fulfilled by amazon.co.uk, so instead of it costing £15.99 its £22 and delivery could take around 3+ weeks based on the estimate :(

No one in the UK seems to have the Black one.

It's awesome.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Zaim2012:

Wow, Table Z2!!! I hope you'll capture some pics when you take it on hand. I like function auto sleep/awake of Poetic :D
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] P-A-L-A-D-I-N:
Many nice cases! Thanks for this useful thread.

But one important Information is missing: Which of them can be used with the cradle? Is there a list available?
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] DoubleZed:
Has anyone tried the MoKo Slim Folding Cover Case? Seems to be the perfect choice for an industrial environment, but I am hesitating regarding the hand strap - is it reliable and solid enough to hold the tablet like that?

I am not allowed to post links yet, but it should be easy to find it by the name on amazon. Costs around 20 USD. Or 20 GBP in the UK.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] mirek54:
The strap is solid enough. It is very good case. You can charge tablet without opening it.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] jalchemyst:
Anyone know of any smart covers for this tablet? I mean like the ipad smart cover, with just the bit that covers the screen. Everything I've looked at has a case as well and I'd hate to cover up this device as well as adding bulk.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] nec_d:
I dont think that the device has the required mangets to support a smart cover.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] nec_d:
Ive fixed my poetic slim case by cutting the area that should hold the charging port cover. It is a design flaw. Now the little fragile cover feels more secure.

keyboard case for tablet z

Hello there.

I have been paying attention for xperia tablet Z for a while and I really like the design.

I am still hestating buying one as I do need a non-leather keyboard case to go with the tablet z so I can use it on daily base.

I tried amazon and google, no result.

Any idea where I can find one?

Tks.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] eirikgu:
This looks very nice. It would be great if you can give a feedback when you receive it :)
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Colt77:
Same here.

I guess you'll have to wait. I mostly do not like leather cases too (though Sony's one looks really nice), I'd rather buy a rugged case to make already dust and water proof tablet even more protected, against drops, but if situation with cases for android tablets is anything to go buy we'll have to wait some time for non-leather design.

I hope Otterbox/Griffin/UAG will come up with something cause it looks like this tablet is going to be quite popular (personally I chose it over N10, I even cancelled my purchase of refurbished Nexus on Amazon at last moment).
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] pdagal:
I'm using the USB host OTG that Sony sells for the Tablet S and it works fine for host and for charging. It's pretty easy to find since it's been on the market for some time.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Ricky D:
Thanks for the reply.

I realised this would work shortly after posting previously. I managed to get my Xperia Z handset to charge my old X10 using exactly this combo (cheap OTG adapter + standard charging cable). I was still looking for an all-in-one cable, however, and found this on ebay which should work directly.

[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] ABT4:
I have that applied over the preinstalled one. Does not have any logo. It is a matte finish, less fingerprints but not crystal clear anymore. I am fine with it because it is also smoother.

Also have the case. While completely functional, I find it adds a bit of weight to it. Would consider a new case once they become more available.

Oleophobic SP

Anyone using an oleophobic screen protector? Can provide link? Thanks!
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] ABT4:
I have the screen protector. Easy to apply. Has instructions and a piece of tape to align it so u can clean it and then peel it onto the screen. Hard to explain. BUT I think it is making the screen sensitivity even worse. Way too sensitive.

I also have the case. It's not the best looking I find. It makes the whole tablet kind of bulky and heavy. The case itself is ALMOST as heavy as the tablet. Although I think it is because the unit is so light. Functionality wise it is actually pretty good. I'm confident with the elastic strap thing to keep it closed, that if I were to drop it, the case would save the unit. I also found a good way to hold it using the folded case but hard to describe. Would have to take some pics. It's comfortable holding it that way.

Either way, I'm happy with the case. If I see something slimmer and nicer I may go for that.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Rootk1t:
I still hesitate. Should it be applied over factory installed or instead of it? Cause applying over will make you screen less clear and decrease sensitivity of touch screen. But i think to delete the factory installed is not a good idea at least while it is new and unscratched.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] viiv:
NOOOO!!!! DO NOT remove the factory one, it is NOT a screen protector but an anti-shatter film glued with heat to the glass and is NOT replacable. It's job is not to prevent scratches (in fact it scratches VERY easily) but to help keep the screen from cracking if you drop the tablet for example. Always apply a screen protector over it to protect it from scratches. All Sony cell phones and tablets and some Cyber-shot digital cameras have this anti shatter film too. It looks like a screen protector but is NOT a screen protector It needs to be protected just as if it was the actual glass of the device..
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] xperiax10.awesome:
this one looks good but PLEASE NOTE - it cannot be used with dock !!

http://www.incipio.com/lexington-sony-xperia-tablet-z-folio-case.html
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Rootk1t:
i see your point of view. But i can't understand why Sony applies it. On the page four of the white-paper for Xperia Z tablet it is said that screen is covered with shatter-proof sheet on scratch-resistant glass. So Sony admits that is uses scratch-resistant glass like other manufacturers like Apple and Samsung. If you look up in the internet you can even find that it is called Asahi Glass Dragontrail which is a competitor of Gorilla Glass. We all know that it is very difficult to scratch it even using in harsh conditions (in pocket with keys). So i don't understand why Sony covers this tough glass with a thin film which itself needs to be protected with a screen protector. The only reason i see is to sell its original screen protector for 30$ and make money out of air)

I'm also quite interested in seeing some feedback about the official Sony cover. I could give some as I'm going to receive one for free for pre-ordering the XTZ directly with Sony. As soon as i get mine I'll post some info here. Meanwhile, I'd like to see someone else's experience. :)

Greetings.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] DaddyWhale:
I got the official red Sony cover. On the whole I'm satisfied with it, though I think it's over priced.

Pluses:

+elegant, minimalistic look with an elastic band to keep it closed

+the tablet fits snugly inside

+it does not add much to the size of the tablet

+you can use the Sony cradle with the cover in place

+wake/sleep functionality

+"open" design: no plastic or leather covering the bezel

+functions as a stand in two positions

+hole for the backside camera

Minuses:

-the red color is a bit too bright (like lipstick red) for my tastes

-the standing positions don't lock in place: easy to knock the stand down

-In the more vertical stand position, the front camera ends up at the bottom of the tablet, which is a bit odd

-there are lighter covers in the market
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Shanliang-:
Thanks, DaddyWhale for your feedback! Just what I wanted to know. I think, in conclusion, if I receive it from Sony as pre-ordering gift, I should be more than happy to keep it as main cover for my XTZ. If someone wants to buy, price might definitely be a reason to look at other cheaper yet functional options.

Greetings.

I bought this Incipio Feather case in black, and I'm pretty happy with it. 20% off (code inc20) and free shipping doesn't hurt either.

[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] mscici:
When buying an Incipio Feather case, be sure to base your choice on your own needs and preferences. Different types of cases offer different levels of protection for your phone while conveying various images. Some women prefer cases that they can change to match their style of dress.

:)
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] mattforchi:
Hey Kem-El! Thanks for the pics. Would you mind telling us if the case has sleeper/waker function and if it is hard to remove the tablet from the case (as in: would it hurt the tablet or the case if I took the XTZ out of the case and put iit in again multiple times a week)?
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Kem-El:
Unfortunately no magnet, so no sleep/wake function :(

As far as taking it out of the case repeatedly, I don't think there would be an issue. But it is molded plastic, so it could eventually loosen up and not hold the tablet as tight.

But it is easy to remove.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] mattforchi:
Thank you! Well, even though that is kind of a bummer that case still looks lovely. Plus we got that neat function to just double tap the screen to wake it up anyway. If it wasn't out of stock I'd order it right away...
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] xperiax10.awesome:
Anyone here have Incipio case + Dock ?

Could any of you please confirm if it can be used with dock !!!
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] mattforchi:
98% sure it can't, because the lower back of the XTZ needs to be free which it isn't as the base of the incipio lexmarks is an incipio feather.
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] xperiax10.awesome:
No, actually base doesn't needs to be free !! the charging ports are on the left - which is open, so if the body of FEATHER case will be slim it can be used with dock - need confirmation from the feather case + dock owners !!!

LEXINGTON case cannot be used with dock !!
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Kem-El:
Does the feather case indeed work with the dock?

If the feather case can be used with the dock, then the Lexington can be too since it appears to be the feather case (back) with a leather cover (front).
[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] HoOnZ:
The Sony Case is nice but I'm not sure if it's really worth $80. I tried to find better photos or videos but couldn't.

[Xperia Tablet Z Accessories] Kem-El:
Amazon was having a deal where you get a $50 gift card when opening an Amazon credit card account.

That makes the $80 Sony case more bearable. I got my gift card and was going to do this, but saw the Incipio case.

Just a tip to help someone out. ;)

Stylus aint working as it should but weirdly enough it works on my Galaxy S2 (is it something wrong with the screen sensitivity?).
