Alright here are some more pics. I got the moko ultra slim case today. Love this one more than thr folio. For all those worrying about the metal touching the screen. There is pleny if gap between the screen and it. I posted a pic of that below too. Sorry about the rotation on some.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] bso44:
Hmm...I've already ordered the Moko but it says they won't be shipping out until the 23rd. I wonder if I should cancel it and order this one since they're probably exactly the same. Decisions, decisions.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] Thunderbear:
Going through the same thing. I did just get this from Trident though, about making a case:

Which means I'm now between the Trident and the Poetic Revolution for rugged cases. Would prefer an Urban Armor Gear case to match my S3, but no dice.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] bso44:
I found this post saying that the VSTN/IVSO case is slimmer than the Moko. They look exactly the same though and I assumed that they're from the same factory.

EDIT: Actually, I think he's referring to the Moko folio case and not the Ultra Slim. I think the Moko Ultra Slim and this VSTN case are exactly the same and just rebranded.

got 2 cases in today. i cant put pictures up right now but both are folio style cases in black similiar to the blurex cases seen on amazon. they have the 2 positions, hand strap, pen holder ect. the first one was the iblason. this one is pretty cheap and really didnt fit very good. clips are quite large and i wasnt impressed. the second was almost the same thing but made by poetic (strapback) and they did a great job. very sturdy with a much more secure fit and flexibility of the case.

Any one with this case have any luck with qi?

---------- Post added at 08:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 PM ----------

Correct. I was just saying I wanted something similar to that one....actually the moko slim shell case is way better because the flap material doesn't wrap around the back in a second layer. The one pictured is 21 mm in some places (for the 2012 nexus). The new moko for the new n7 is 14mm. Really great for 5 bucks.

Got my Poetic Slimbook folio case today. It's like most other folio cases, but I really like the contrasting stitching and smooth leather (I dont like dimpled and/or creased leather patterns). I don't have a wireless charger, so I can't test it out.

Unfortunately the wake-up/sleep function works about 25% of the time. Where is the sensor/magnet on the tablet and case for wake-up and sleep?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] michaelg1030:
Sensor is on the lower left side when held in portrait mode. Kind of where the a is on the keyboard.

Hopefully the VSTN is identical to the MOKO, if so I will be cancelling my poetic and keeping the VSTN. If not the VSTN is going back... Don't really get why poetic is taking longer than every one else.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] macaumen:
I am on the same boat. Other members are reporting that VSTN is a rebranded Moko. They are exactly the same.

My other concern is, some report that Moko works with Qi and some report it doesn't. The same happen to Poetic, too. I am having hard time deciding which one to go for. May be I should just go for the ASUS premium cover when it comes out.

Another potential case for me is Nillkin.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nillkin-Sma...vers_Keyboard_Folios&var=&hash=item4175e52575

It looks like the ASUS premium cover with auto-awake function. That's exactly what I want. However, I don't know how the quality goes. A member already purchased that and he/she will report back when the case arrives. Just waiting for the feedback.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] bso44:
Isn't the Nillkin exactly the same as the Poetic?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] dynastyy:
hopefully its just a rebranded moko, I need a case for the 24th and actually would prefer it since it isn't branded... I'll cancel my poetic if it is...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] macaumen:
No, Nillkin is different from Poetic. You can tell from the pic. It's also thinner.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] redhat_123:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] bso44:
That's a big plus if it's thinner. I'm wondering if the cover on the Nillkin will have problems staying in place. That's the big reason I went with the Moko over Poetic since it has that magnetic clasp.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] macaumen:
I believe poetic has magnet too but I don't see Nillkin has one.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] bso44:
Found a thread about the Nillkin case for the 1st gen N7. Sounds like the flap has trouble laying flat and staying closed so I'll probably pass on it. That is unless I hear some reviews about the newer one being improved.

Hi:

Sorry to be so tardy in reply. As others have already pointed out, there are two different cases from VSTN, the PU leather cover case and theSlim smart cover case. My bad for causing confusion.

I just hope that yours isn't a carbon copy of the Moko, like mine was of the I-Blason--including all flaws.

Let us know.

I'd stay away from the Poetic StrapBack. Just got mine in and put the tablet in it. The left two tabs (near the hinge) are very tight, and the first time I tried to pull them away t put the tablet into the landscape orientation the top corner of my tablet pulled away from the glass. Caught it quick and stopped, but that could have been a real disaster.

Hmm. Well I requested a refund from the seller, but it would cost more to ship back than I paid for it. I wonder if Poetic would just ship me another to see what's going on. Or if they'd let me pick another design.

Portenzo hardback bookcases should start shipping out Aug 9th. I've tried Blurex, Cruizerlites, poetics, etc on my original N7 and the Bookcase held up the best and was thinner then the Blurex style.

So I just have to pick out a color and order. They are very cool people. You can do special orders for no additional charge. My last case had a color scheme that wasn't available online. Just chat with them, OK it, and put it in the special notes.

For the most part a lot of people dont really track gadget release dates, and google doesnt advertise well, so they didnt know it was there or dont know what it was. At my best buy the nexus was hanging with the charging cable not even plugged in, in a corner. They did run out of cases so there are some geeks around here somewhere...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] pedxing:
My moko slim case fits mostly because you can bend the tabs a bit.

When closed, the top flap is a little lose because the new nexus is thinner....but the elastic band that's included fixes that.

Still props up just fine. I don't like the extra bulk but it'll work until the real ones come out in mass.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] tlr1000:
So far, I like the Asus premium case but if it doesn't have auto-wake it's a deal breaker for me. I think the best approach is to use a sleeve or something you already have for the next couple weeks until the selection gets better. I really like the Yoobao case I have for my 2012 N7. It's slim, nice leather, has auto wake feature, and has a premium look and feel to it. If they make a case for the new N7, I'll most likely get that.

One thing that I like with this over the Moko Ultra Slim is that it has three magnets on the side that holds it close better. It feels a little better than the moko quality wise and doesnt have a metal tab at all like the Moko. This will probably be my goto case. Will add pictures for my RooCase origami next.
