I really like my Moko Slim case. I posted photos of it on page 20: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-9/accessories/nexus-9-t2908774/page20

Only drawback is that it's hard to take out. Sleep/wake function works really well. It does have a bit of a premium feel with a nice fake leather. It still feels like a slim tablet with the case on.

In fact, I've been getting a lot of compliments on it and i like seeing their eyes light up when i tell them it was only 5 dollars shipped. Also, I had friend recently who immediately bought the iPad mini version (for double the price) after seeing mine.

Overall, its a really sweet case; its actually very similar to the magnetic folio cases we've seen on iPads for awhile now, but it can' t be beat for the price. There's also a Poetic case that looks almost exactly like this one.

I got the MOKO ultra slim and it made my screen white bleed. Looks like it got permanent now. :(
[Nexus 9 Accessories] reisb:
Everyone seems to have an issue with this Moko case causing extra bleeding. Is it the same for the identical IVSO?

What about this one?

Got this today. Its a little loose on the sides,especially on the bottom but I think it will protect the N9 from a minor drop. I like that it keeps the slim profile and I'm not getting the light bleed I did with the Moko and Poetic cases. Now waiting for the tempered glass to arrive.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Pilz:
I got mine too, and its nowhere near what I thought it would be. I would return it if I didn't have to pay shipping to send it back mime was warped when I opened it from the cardboard insert so its sitting in my case drawer collecting dust now.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] neoWhite:
Which tempered glass did you order? I am still unsure of what case to get. It's slim pickings just like it was for my N10.

[Nexus 9 Accessories] reisb:
Those that got the IVSO ultra thin slim, does it cause extra light bleed like the similar Moko?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] DoesntPostAThing:
One thing I noticed while searching for a case is that the IVSO and similar slim covers are NOT the same design as Moko, Poetic, and Fintie ones. For one, they have the magnets visible on the edge. Someone has speculated that these might be additional magnets (the ones without these only have magnets in the cover) to help the lid stay closed tighter. Also, the IVSO, VSTN, etc. ones can be found unbranded on aliexpress. These ones are mass-produced and rebranded, and all have the same design. However, Fintie, Poetic, and Moko seem to each have their own design. At the very least, Moko and Poetic have different designs.

From the reviews on Amazon, it seems that the IVSO ones DO NOT suffer from the light bleed issue. The poetic one doesn't seem to either, but people have reported that it doesn't stand well. If you're worried about the metal logo on the IVSO one, you can find unbranded ones with what I assume to be identical designs without the metal. If I end up buying a slim cover that's probably what I will go with.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] reisb:
I thought I was sold on the IVSO, but just noticed the metal logo...they say it shouldn't scratch, but...if it's additional, I can remove it.

I checked the unbranded on aliexpress. Those are from the vendor in China and take a month or so to arrive so I don't want that.

I am truly at a loss for finding a case for this thing. Anyone have any good sleeves though I really think I need case for added grip when holding? Maybe I could find a case and sleeve.

I haven't seen anyone mention this case in particular,

http://www.amazon.com/IVSO-8-9-inch...d=1417881604&sr=8-4&keywords=nexus+9+keyboard

It has no reviews on Amazon and IVSO is in China, so a two week shipment is expected. Does anyone have exp. with this case?

[Nexus 9 Accessories] termiflyer:
I realize now after using a workaround case/cover what I'm looking for... Do any the cases we've been talking about cover the hardware buttons and make them work with the case bezel (they are terrible!)? Oh yeah, and is slim, and smart, and has multi viewing angles for couch/bed, and and is indestructible, and makes my coffee in the morning :).

Really, just asking about the hardware buttons... I hadn't noticed any in the thread yet.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] DoesntPostAThing:
From what I've seen you CAN remove the metal. Also, the IVSO ones ship from China too, so they take probably just as long. People in the reviews said 2-4 weeks. In the meantime you can do what I do, which is get a sleeve for protection during transport. I got this one and quite like it http://www.amazon.com/Evecase-Cushi...889124&sr=8-1&keywords=evecase+nexus+9+sleeve
[Nexus 9 Accessories] reisb:
I'll take a look at the sleeve. The IVSO one that I was looking at had one of the options fulfilled by Amazon, so I believe it would be sooner delivery.

[Nexus 9 Accessories] Nucking Futs!:
I have the same exact one but the model designed for an Apple 13" MBA. I use it for a MS Surface Pro 3 & while it's slightly loose in there, I like it very much due to the all-around cushioning. Was hoping the manufacturer would make one specifically for the N9 but I guess not. When I take the N9 out & about, it's inside a neoprone sleeve case right next to the MS Surface Pro 3 inside a messenger bag.

I've had 2 cases in the past with those metal C-clips on the front flip cover & never had issues with scratches on the screen but you never know. Really depends on how sandwiched it is inside a compartment. Been using the Bear Motion case for a few days & so far I'm digging it for the most part. It has more viewing angles (landscape mode) & is much more stable than the Poetic/Moko/IVSO cases on uneven surfaces. My only complaints are it barely covers the corners & wished it covered all-around the edges (besides the openings). I had the Moko case as well & the fake leather looks & feels better on the Bear Motion version. The Moko case clamped on the N9 more but not too much so.

http://www.amazon.com/Bear-Motion-C...&sr=8-1&keywords=bear+motion+case+for+nexus+9
[Nexus 9 Accessories] DoesntPostAThing:
Thank you, I think I'll go for the Bear Motion one then. As for the sleeve, it seems to be specifically for the Nexus 9? My tablet fits in there pretty well. It's slightly loose as well but still not too big.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Nucking Futs!:
No prob! Thanks for the info on the Eve case. Based on the interior dimensions, it's 1.5" taller & wider than the N9 which isn't too bad. If I didn't already have a neoprene sleeve case then I'd consider it since it has so much cushion & protection. I'm sure you'll enjoy the Bear Motion case just as much as myself assuming you're OK with the negative aspects I mentioned.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] DoesntPostAThing:
I think I'm fine with the edges, I don't care much for protection anyways. As long as it keeps the device standing and covers the screen during transport (I plan on sticking other things in the sleeve too) I'm fine with it.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Nucking Futs!:
It's noticeably more stable on uneven surfaces compared to the other cases I listed.

Thanks!

never heard of this case before. It by far looks the nicest from what I have seen. I cancelled the OEM HTC one and ordered the roocase trifold

The from the reviews I read about the origami on other devices is that is very odd to hold and open. which is why I went with the standard trifold
[Nexus 9 Accessories] michael_ch:
Finally this case arrived today, and I must say it feels great! Sure it does not protect the screen, but it fits perfectly and protects the edges well. I was still waiting for the official case to ship, but I just decided to cancel that order now...

The back looks better than other similar cases.

However, I am still looking for something similar to Apple's smart cover. I don't need a case for protection because I don't take my Nexus 9 out of my home. I do however need a a stand so I can watch the Nexus 9 occasionally.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] joshndroid:
Just picked this one up myself from an australian seller on ebay, due to the annoyance at the very limit cases available here. case is fantastic. not a 3 piece like an otterbox however the second rear piece seem to be a mix of the otterbox rubberish shelll with the hard case built into the rear. its a great case:good:

I received this case today:

http://www.amazon.com/IVSO-8-9-inch...fetime/dp/B00KUR0NW8/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

It's a very solid product, it do make the Nexus slightly thicker and heavier, but I think it's providing good protection. The edges are fully covered but not the top and the button (which is okay for me).

It fits very nicely though it's a bit difficult to attach the Nexus to it (a bit too tight).

But there's nothing to complain about - Nexus is sitting great in it, the case isn't loose or something like that.

The "wake and sleep" - function works very good as well. The magnet lock doesn't touch the screen so it won't scratch the display.

Yes, and I like the design.

I think there's nothing wrong with it for just 10 $.

Gorgeous, I was going to ask if anyone had splurged and bought on of these. Can you post pictures of your N9 in it and your thoughts on it after having it for a while?

Can you give us some pictures and overall impressions, I was looking at the graphite and the Revolution. Which one did you get?

Someone also mentioned the SUPCASE, anyone get it or able to give a comparison between SUPCASE and Poetic as they look similar.

Thx

The Poetic Slimline is listed free on there site. You will have to pay for shipping through. Also it might be a mistake so the order might not go through. But you might as well try.

www.nillkin.com/english/proshow.asp?mid=2&sid=0&tid=0&cid=1&scid=13&id=4722&page=1

Anyway, I think it can damage or scratch the borders of the tablet, like others slim cases could when you put it on and off. What do you think?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] woshiweili:
I would much prefer if the back was clear but yes it does have the nicest looking back I've seen so far.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tysj:
I just received the Nillkin case in the mail yesterday. I'll be open to questions or a more in-depth review if you guys need it.

Some initial thoughts:

Looks a lot better than the Poetic/Moko/Fintie rebranded cases

Not super tight, doesn't seem to increase backlight bleed from squeezing the tablet too tight

Sleep to wake function works fine

The smart cover that folds doesn't "stick" into the triangular position, so standing it up at the high angle position needs a bit breaking in. The lower angle position is fine.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] FrankBullitt:
I got my Celicious case which I'm finding much, much better than the Moko slim.

The folding system is different than the Moko/IVSO/Nillkin, etc, as it does not split the cover in three parts, but only in two. It took my only a couple of hours to understand how I could fold it in several positions to be able to fee confortable in landscape and portrait mode.

The build quality is good for a 10pound case and you'll find this weird, but unlike the Moko slim that caused my screen to "warp" (twist) and made the lightbleed a lot more noticeable, this case does the contrary. It's very, VERY tight and I'm almost afraid to take the N9 out of it now, because I'm afraid it will require to force the back cover too much and cause some denting on the corners (well, If that happens we'll always have some debranding skins to apply), but because it is solid all around the 4 corners and grabs the tablet with a lot more lateral surface than the Moko/IVSO, pressing the tablet frame into the glass/screen, the lightbleed seems to have vanished almost completely...

Also, no twisting means no weird coloration in one side of the screen as the Moko has caused.

The texture of the cover, however, is not as good as the Moko/IVSO. The fake leather is not as rugged, so it feels a bit cheaper than those ones.

The magnetic lock works fine.

All around, a solid case for 10 pounds. A lot happier with this one than with the Moko which is now in a drawer at home.

Some pics follow. (sorry about the quality, taken at work with my N4).

Guys, could you please tell me what kind of sleeve is on the photos posted in this very thread some pages ago?

I tried to contact the poster to ask this question but unfortunately she seems to have abandoned this forum since past mid-December.

Backless Cover...ie Apple Smart Cover Clone

Is there really not a single manufacturer that produces a case similar to the apple smart cover, in that it's just a cover flap connected with a magnet on the side of the tablet? I've checked all over, the HTC cover doesn't quite fit the bill and I hate any added bulk. The apple smart cover is almost exactly what I'm looking for but of course for my nexus 9. I've seen several other apple style cases but none like the smart cover. That's the one thing apple trumps android with... The endless options for cases/covers. If you guys have seen one plz let me know.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] woshiweili:
I was looking for exactly the same thing.

I had much doubt about the magic cover as just about everyone and their grandmas have been trashing it. However, I got mine today and I got to say I have been deeply impressed! The magnets are much stronger than I anticipated and using it was very easy.

I would recommend picking one up and try it for yourself. Worst case you just return it.

I got mine from the HTC flash sale when it was 50% off so it was a great deal, but $40 does seem a tad steep.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] droyal:
I keep telling myself not to worry about people's reviews of it and just to check it out. But literally everyone has bashed it, and for $40 I just don't know...but thanks for the recommendation. At least someone offers a different opinion about it
[Nexus 9 Accessories] bailyc:
I posted a little recap of my experience with the magic cover as well. You can read it in the other thread here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57979507&postcount=22

I would also recommend it at $20. I was actually impressed that the magnets are strong enough to use with a TPU case on the back. I figured it would only be worthwhile on a nearly naked tablet, but not so, at least with the one I have.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] droyal:
I think I'm just going to give it a shot. Its the one I initially wanted but the reviews kinda swayed me
[Nexus 9 Accessories] crzycrkr:
I had a very different experience with the magnets. Found them to be very weak.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] woshiweili:
I agree with bailyc's review about the magic cover. You can also see my own review here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57972067&postcount=16

It's possible that there are different revisions as bailyc implied but I truly would not consider the magnets in the magic cover I received as weak at all.

Again, $40 feel a bit steep, $20 was a steal, but Amazon has it for $35, which I would be OK with the price had I known the magnets were as strong as they are. Also returning with Amazon is easy if you happen to not like it in the end.

[Nexus 9 Accessories] Metallice:
I purchased the Moko Ultra-Slim case. I like it a lot. It is indeed very slim for what is essentially full device coverage.

Contrary to what people have said before, mine does not have a "vice-like death-grip" on the tablet. It's doesn't affect light bleed at all

However, I didn't get one of the PU leather versions. This may be the reason or all their designs may have been fixed recently. I got the version that's solid matte gray plastic all the way around. It's not as nice to the touch as the white Nexus 9 back, but it is similar, and I do like the feel enough to be happy. Not crazy about the color though even though I do like simple. A little lighter or a little darker would look better IMO. Kinda in a boring middle-ground.

I also got official smart cover for 50% off. I wanted it for at home use and the Moko for travel, and the official cover fits that role perfectly. The magnets are a little too weak for getting tossed around in a bag though, so I would not recommend it for that. For my plans it's perfect. I really, really like how it looks and the coral color.

Is the Supcase the only real option for full protection from drops, falls etc?

I don't mind purchasing a screen protector separately, provided it fits. Any help appreciated.

roocase Google Nexus 9 Case - Origami 3D Nexus 9

I just received one of these as a gift and it is really nice. All of the ports and buttons are very accessible and the portrait stand actually works. Auto ON/OFF is working fine for me when opening and closing the cover. It is a tad pricey ($30 from Amazon for the black model) and it is not likely that it will protect your tablet from major incidents (dropping it on concrete). But it seems quite sturdy to me and I think it will certainly protect it in your backpack or purse.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] droyal:
Just got my official HTC cover in today. I like it, but the magnets are a tad bit weaker than I'd like. The good thing is it works for what I need it for in my typical daily use and when I travel and need full protection I can use my IVSO case. I think I'll be keeping it :)
