Hello everyone,

I've just finished reading through the thread and was wondering which of the cases (they've been out for a while) are too tight and which are just right? (Goldilocks has nothing on me.) I'm trying to avoid ones that are too tight.

Thanks

More: I should tell all of you that I have the Poetic 'Revolution' series case. It is a two part case with an integrated screen protector. Fits great but the buttons are a bit hard to press and you'll have to look for them at the start. The only thing that I don't like is the weight. The N9 weighs 425 grams and with this case it's more like 580 -590. This is noticeably heavier but it provides all-around protection. The construction is some softer plastic and a harder shell that feels like old fashioned Bakelite. For rough travels this is the case to have, inside a house not so much.

I purchased the roocase Optagon (not the Origami). Nice slim case, lightweight, and good grip. Does not squeeze the tablet at all like the Moko-type cases.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] rajendragon:
I saw it on ali express for the best price (can't copy links)
[Nexus 9 Accessories] mike02466:
The IVSO looks pretty good for my needs. Any idea if a tempered glass screen protector would work with it?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] droyal:
Ive read in someone else's post that it does.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] liquidsuspension:
These caught my eye, but I wondered if the back was too bulky. Hard to tell from the pics. I'll probably get one and see how it does, maybe the origami version, haven't decided yet.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
I will try and take some photos for you when I get home later tonight.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] liquidsuspension:
That would be great, thanks :)
[Nexus 9 Accessories] liquidsuspension:
Ok I received my Origami case today. I must say, its really nice. It fits the tablet perfect, and the build quality is great. Not too bulky, and can be positioned in all the necessary ways. Just what I was looking for. It gets my recommendation. :good:
[Nexus 9 Accessories] DaedalusXDeluxe:
Hey guys I'm thinking of buying a Devicewear Slim Cover for my Nexus 9 considering the many good reviews of it on Nexus 7.

Does anyone have this case???
[Nexus 9 Accessories] darkchazz:
Is there a good sleeve case for N9 ?

I have the moko ultra slim case and it's so tight that it's scratching the metal rim around the device.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] con100:
So I got the Roocase Origami the other day and so far I'm not that happy with it.

First off, the color is off from the product picture. I bought the Pacific Blue color and the image on Amazon is a bright blue. But the color is more of a light or power blue.

I also noticed it caused more light bleed. My tablet already suffers moderate light bleed. Here's a picture http://imgur.com/z61xUbA

The last negative is the magnet on the flip cover turns off the screen when holding it behind the tablet. To stop it from doing this I have to hold it so might right hand is in between the cover and tablet which isn't that comfortable. Here's a gifv I made to show what I mean http://i.imgur.com/LNx61af.gifv

What I do like about the case is the folding cover to make it into a stand. Also the case feels high quality. It uses a soft touch material on the outside that somewhat feels like the back of the Nexus 9. The inside of the cover has a texture on it that makes it feel kind of rubbery and grips the screen good when the cover is closed. The case also offers good protection. The sides are protected well.

Sadly the bad outweighs the good and I'll be sending it back. I might exchange it for another in case I got a defective one which I'm hoping it is since I do want to like the case.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] liquidsuspension:
Strange, my origami doesn't shut off the tablet when folded to the back like that. I never checked lightbleed either. I never notice any in day to day usage, so I haven't worried about it too much. My nexus looked about like your 1st pic when I first bought it.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] jamf:
Got me a Gecko covers nexus 9 specific ..the slim fit that is.

Not too thick, smart, fits like a glove

It even smells nice
[Nexus 9 Accessories] igothacked1:
I bought this case for that reason specifically. I loved this kind of case for both my 2012 and 2013 Nexus 7's. The sleep magnets do work and have some pull to it when it is covered, but its very light.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] georgios73:
I have a very good generic one which is excellent for the N9. I will post pics and links when I get home.

On a side note I wish there was a slim snap on case available for our N9 like the LG snap on for my N5 can't find one anywhere.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] GibsonSGJ:
Hey, I ordered a sleeve from Begoos on Etsy and it is awesome. XDA won't let me post links yet, but just Google Begoos Nexus 9 and you should find her no problem. Very good quality and I received it in Canada in 7 days flat! Really good price, and very unique sleeve. I got the Dark Blue with pocket and magnetic closure. It's snug, but no so much that the N9 couldn't fit with the Magic Cover, which I plan on getting to go with it.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] georgios73:
Here's my sleeve case. Very strong and made of high quality materials and feels like I could drop it from 1m and it wouldn't damage my N9.

A bit pricy (30 euros) but well worth it. Nice soft touch leather and has a perfect fit although it might be big enough to use it with a flip case but I haven't tried.

I got mine from a local electronics store here in Cyprus. Made in Italy by cellular line but they deliver worldwide. The model is called Elegance Sleeve 9".

Edit: Just received my Nillkin PU Leather smart cover folio case and it fits snug into the sleeve case as if it was made for it.

Just a quick question to anyone who has the Nillkin case - does yours stand up without slipping? It appears that the leather is slippery and doesn't allow my N9 to stay upright.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] velocity90:
I also received my Nillkin. I think its perfect. Nice leather touch, which will protect beter than hard plastics. Tempertures of the n9 are fine too.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] TehPwnd:
Anyone know if we can get a sand colored tpu case for this thing? Also does anyone know if there is a manufacturer that will do a custom screen print on tpu? A necronomicon case on a sand colored tablet would be nice.

Just ordered this sleeve today. I already have a magic cover, but I needed something for traveling. It's a bit expensive, but it screams quality.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] n3wDaddy77:
Received an email this past week from Seidio that the Dilex case and multi-purpose cover are now available for the N9!

Here's a link: http://goo.gl/JOV1O4

Their email said that the black and red versions are available, but their site only shows the black version as being currently available.

I loved this case on my N7 (2012) and my wife has one for her iPad 2. It's an expensive case (especially if you bundle it with the cover, but it provides stellar protection without a huge amount of bulk IMHO.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
I've always loved Seidio, but their prices slowly crept up over the years. $50 for a case (without the cover) is obscene when the Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro provides the same protection at less than half the cost.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] n3wDaddy77:
I'll have to check them out!
[Nexus 9 Accessories] cables2590:
I was wondering if any of you guys have used a case that would also work with the portfolio keyboard case? I just want a case to protect my Nexus while I use my Nexus without the keyboard.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tu3218:
Anyone try the Jeytech case out? Amazon lists it with a ipad pic but it's at a great price.

http://www.amazon.com/JETech®-Slim-...qid=1426467525&sr=1-1&keywords=jetech+nexus+9
[Nexus 9 Accessories] ChristianJay:
I've got one of those as well. Really well made. Great for travel.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] draiken78:
How do these cases have so many reviews and ratings already when the Nexus 9 isn't even released yet? Different covers tend to fit different devices better or worse than others, so it's hard to go by the ratings for these in particular.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] mk92595:
Those listings were for the nexus 7 and they just updated them
[Nexus 9 Accessories] dunemessiah:
How does the magic case work? I don't see a "hinge" like what the iPad smart covers have

Damn I need a case that would be here by Nov 4....
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tzuyang:
Are there any videos of this HTC magic case working
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Versed:
I plan on getting the kb case either form Google or 3rd party if I can find a good one for less money.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] joshndroid:
gah i wouldn't mind getting some of those poetic cases for the nexus 9 and the 6... amazon never seems to ship anything to australia. So painful, they should hurry up and open up a amazon australia especially as alot of the items come from china/hong kong anyway
[Nexus 9 Accessories] __GOLD_:
Hello all,

I'm looking for a case for Nexus 9 I really don't like the magic one.

I found some in Amazon. But I'm from Portugal and no one send that to Portugal... Strange but's true.

So my question is did you know any retailer that sell's Poetic or IVSO cases for Nexus 9?

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Sweerts:
I had the same problem (the Netherlands), but this one is shipped and now on its way to me: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KUR0O0Y/ref=pe_385040_30332190_TE_3p_dp_1

I hope for you that they also send to Portugal.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] mk92595:
I guess i'm going to be caseless for a while since I can't find one that will be here in time.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tysj:
Just came across this: http://youtu.be/sp-1oIgMDw8?t=4m10s

Pretty much just a cover that you take off an attach to the back or front.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] kdkinc:
After seeing this video I'd be cancelling my $39.00 order, What a piece of Crap !

Get a real case not a hunk of cardboard covered plastic with magnets.

I bet the cover has a higher profit margin than the tablet.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Lokke9191:
Is there a case i can buy for the n9 that will arrive by nov. 4th in the U.S.?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] mk92595:
I'm looking too but can't find anything
[Nexus 9 Accessories] rdelfin:
(notice I'm not asking whether you feel the following is a good idea; what I ask is about the possibility)

Not that I'm planning to do this, but after watching that frenchy video with the magic cover being able to attach at either side of the tablet, I wonder if it would be possible to have two covers attached, one at each side of the tablet at the same time?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tysj:
I don't see why not, they're just magnetically attached it seems. Although dropping 39.99 USD for each just to have protection for each side really isn't worth it.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] rdelfin:
Hmmmm... I wouldn't be so sure as the magnetic latches would be occupied by one of the covers, leaving the other cover's latches without anything to hold on to.... Does this make sense?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] bluefoam:
No
[Nexus 9 Accessories] mkygod:
How long do you guys think before there are cheap 10 dollar copy-cats of the Magic cover?

There isn't anything technically advanced about them.

Also, id like to point out that there are some Nexus 9 sleeves available through Etsy that are homemade if any of your are looking for something like that.

https://www.etsy.com/search?q=nexus 9
[Nexus 9 Accessories] bluefoam:
Something like this appeals to me, but id be affraid of it causing micro scratches on the screen...

I'm going to get a "kind of fits" case at Walmart to get by to mid December.

By Mid December the Poetic "Revolution" case arrives.

Just got to have a case, even more important than a screen protector at the moment.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Lokke9191:
Ive been looking for a kind of fits case too, its harder than it sounds. Do you think this one will work http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00M4UIK1A?pc_redir=1414159426&robot_redir=1

Or can you suggest one for me please?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] mkygod:
Not many cases for Nexus 9 right now. It's slim pickings. I think the smart thing to do is just get a generic sleeve or something until the right case comes along that catches your eye.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] andyahs:
Ordered another Portenzo for my Nexus 9. Use one with my Nexus 7 and love it. Well made.

[Nexus 9 Accessories] mk92595:
When do they ship?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] hiline:
I contacted the suppliers of Poetic, IVSO etc. They all seem to be at least 20 to 25 days away from having anything in stock. I ordered one of these just to get me by. I'll have it Monday the 3rd.

Not sure, my order is being fulfilled whatever that means.

Sent from my Nexus 7
[Nexus 9 Accessories] mrkvchm:
It doesn't look like there are any magnetic latches though. Looking at the video, it looks like you peel the cover entirely off the front and then stick it to the back. It doesn't seem to fold around on a hinge like the iPad smart cover.

Anyone else think that's what it looked like? I hope I'm wrong... I really wish it had the hinge.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] MRobbo80:
Had to buy this lol, just to see what it is like (look at the price!!!!!!) ?

Preparing for Dispatch

Dispatch estimate: Monday, 3 November 2014 - Tuesday, 4 November 2014
[Nexus 9 Accessories] mrkvchm:
Bahaha! I bought one too. Why not? Even with shipping to Canada, it's basically free. Awesome.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] rdelfin:
For the US, the shipping is 6 pounds, which translates into 10 dollars, while the price if purchased from the Amazon US store is $4.90 (or 10 bucks if you pay for shipping, as of this message), so no point in taking advantage of offer for us here.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] mrkvchm:
It's the same to Canada actually, but the problem is that Amazon.com won't ship to Canada. But Amazon.co.uk will. And Amazon.ca doesn't have any nexus 9 options yet... So it's still my best bet for now.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] andyahs:
Cruzerlite said they will have cases for the nexus 9 in 2-4 weeks.

Ordered canceled because it said its only for 16:9. Guess I will go caseless
[Nexus 9 Accessories] lartomar2002:
Tried looking for it in the Amazon US and could not find it. Do you have a link please?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] wanfeilwong:
Just took a chance and bought an Omoton N9 case off of Amazon US for $13.68 total. Shippping Estimate is Nov.4-5 . But again I don't know how legit this is.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Pilz:
Has anyones HTC magic cover shipped from amazon? Mine is supposed to be delivered today and amazon I'd insistent that it will be however it hasn't even shipped yet.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] MetalPirate:
Yeah, ordered one from Amazon via 3rd party, said 7-14 days shipping, so I said fine. They shipped today and then said it wouldn't be here until early-mid December. I've contacted the company about it and then they said 20-22 days. Must be shipping out of HongKong, not pleased about that at all.

Wasn't a big fan of the magic cover as I want more protection due to having a 2 year old (I keept him away from the tablet, as he has his own Nabi, but you never know).

Item incase anyone is curious:

IVSO Google Nexus 9 8.9-inch Ultra-Thin Slim Smart Cover Case with Auto Sleep/Wake Function sold by Gambolex US

Can't link currently, or I'd include that.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] marctronixx:
i pre ordered the htc official case days ago when it was in stock.

emails amazon cs yesterday to confirm it would be shipped to get to me on the 4th. cs rep said yes and guaranteed it in writing.

wake up this am and see an email saying they dont know when it will be in stock and they need my permission to keep the order or cancel it. i kept the order because on one else has it. i saw that ivso case (with the keyboard) and may jump on it but i prefer official gear for things of this magnitude.

needless to say im disappointed.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] flippingout:
Same here. Quite disappointed all around with the pre order experience for the Nexus 9. I'll have to look at the IVSO case as well.

As a side note, this tablet is worth it though... Great piece of hardware and Lollipop is tops!
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Hereisphilly:
Has anyone found any pouches/sleeves for the N9 yet? I use the device naked around the house, but I like pouches for when I need to travel

Edit, found these which look okay

Awesome, of you could that'd be great! All I really want is a nice snug case to prevent against scratches, the thinner and slimmer the better!
[Nexus 9 Accessories] steveo17:
yeah i think thats going to be the better option

i'll just return the one i don't like though
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tyvar1:
Omg! Those etsy cases! Will get one for my nexus 6 and one more my nexus 9! Thank you so much for the link!
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Hereisphilly:
Nice aren't they! I'm just not sure if they will fit the devices well, the pics seem to show them quite baggy
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tyvar1:
Well those cases is like "bags" for the devices and not like a slim tight case :) it's looks more stylish and modern that way IMO! And I will have my devices in a bag so it will be perfect!
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Hereisphilly:
Sounds like you've nominated yourself to be the Guinea pig! Looking forward to your reviews when u get them :-p
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tyvar1:
Guinea pig? Haha

I will order them tomorrow! :)
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Hereisphilly:
Yeah it's an English phrase, comes from when they used to test things on Guinea pigs in labs. Basically we're relying on you to get the case out and report back hehe!
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tyvar1:
Haha I see! Sorry for stupid question!

Well then ! Let the testing begin ;)
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Hereisphilly:
Nahh don't worry mate, it's a very British saying so I'm not surprised other people aren't familiar!
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tyvar1:
Haha okay :D
[Nexus 9 Accessories] lartomar2002:
It's a very familiar term here in the US also. As it should be I guess since the UK and the US are cousins.:highfive:
[Nexus 9 Accessories] rdelfin:
Here you go.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] marctronixx:
be advised those products from that vendor come from china. 18-22 days to the US. i was interested in the keyboard case they carry and was told from the vendor those products have an 18-22 day ship.

Also, since I will buy a slim case (once they are available) I'll request my pouch to be slightly bigger:

She has a great product line.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tyvar1:
Great news man! :D yeah I think that's the one I will get!

What slim case will you get?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] danimar1:
Thanks for the tip! I just cancelled my order for that same one, as if it takes that long to deliver I will not be even in the UK by then. Now I need to look for an all-purpose pouch or sleeve to protect it meanwhile though.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] FrankBullitt:
I don't know yet... lol

I'm still waiting of the first people getting cases to make their reviews. I didn't order any so far because there's no way to know if any of those ebay/amazon cases fit properly or not.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tyvar1:
I see! Well if I want to use the magic case with that etsy case do I need the bigger etsy case then?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Phelix.Puan:
I think it is possible, but is this practical?

You got your case yet? Do you mind to give some review on the IVSO case?

nice page! I wonder does it ship to Malaysia..
[Nexus 9 Accessories] tyvar1:
Made a order now for the etsy sleeve :D
[Nexus 9 Accessories] Nucking Futs!:
FWIW, I have an IVSO case on a Lenovo ThinkPad 8 & fitment's perfect. Auto wake/sleep works flawlessly unlike the version made by Fintie. BTW, IVSO & VSTN are one & the same. I ordered the case made by VSTN yet the one I received says IVSO on it. Also, it even says IVSO (on the metal C-clip) in the picture on the VSTN product page for the Lenovo ThinkPad 8 version.

Ordered my IVSO case from Amazon and it is taking 30+ days from China. Recieved my shipping notice today so no cancelling now.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] marctronixx:
That's the main reason I held off on buying. 22 days is much too long to wait.

I'll hold out for the HTC official case/keyboard. This purchase is a novelty so no rush however I certainly understand we all have different needs...
[Nexus 9 Accessories] wifesabitch:
Pretty slim picking for covers/cases. I heading to the US over Christmas, think I should wait it out until then. Should have a much larger selection to choose from.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] bransyeah:
I've used one of these for my nexus 7 all the time and loved it. I instantly if he again for the nexus 9. The girl was super fast sending it to me (I ordered it last week) and is also very nice. Shipping is from Latvia though and can take up to two weeks.

My nexus 7 case was nicely done and the tablet fitted well in it. Not very tight, not very loose. I think I will also buy an official magic cover as a stand and try to fit it all inside! ?

Hope I was of some help!

Thanks for the information! :D I am really looking forward to get mine!

I told her that I am going to use the sleeve with the official magic cover, so she will make the sleeve a little bit larger :)
