Just Ordered One

I just ordered one. I'll let you know how it goes when I get it. I already got the case with keyboard from the same company. It took 3-4 weeks for it to come in, so don't be in a rush if you decide to order something from them.

As for this case not having tabs on the side, if the tab does seem to slide a bit I may glue a rubber mat/mesh to the back of the case, the same stuff used in tool boxes, drawers, etc. I would assume between the mesh and the friction of the tabs the tablet will stay in place.
[G Tablet Accessories] DrPaulR:
How thick is the whole thing once the GTab is installed? Also, can the flap that covers the screen fold all the way back or does it only go a little over 90°? Very interested.
[G Tablet Accessories] f'n around:
Looking at the pics, I would assume it would be like the case I already have. Yes, the cover will fold back on itself, but then the kickstand will not be able to fold out. Although it is possible to fold the cover back and open the kickstand on it.

Hope that answers your question.

Sorry fo the delay, I've been busy.

I'll let everyone know when it comes in.

Hi all sorry to kinda steal the thread but ...

Hope someone can help

Can anyone please confirm that the witglobal site is a real one and not a fake, it would be one thing to buy accessories for a couple of dollars, but another sending out 400$ for a tablet that would never show up :)

I've been searching the internet like crazy and yahoo answers says their fake (well someone does) and their company is registed at some room in an appartment building, so ...

Also i do live in western europe so if anyone has any knowledge for me that would be great.

thx in advance.
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
Why would you buy from them a $400 tablet ?!?

No more reliable alternatives ?

If its the g-tab you are looking for why not check at steve's store ($350 + shipping).

Any way, if you really must shop at witglobal for such high ticketed items, make sure you use paypal, if within 45 days you are not satisfied with your transaction paypal will get you your money back.

Hope that helps,

i receive my case an hour ago. and as i promise i took some photos.

i like the case although there isn't any protection for the sides of the tablet.

it holds the tablet tight enough i think.

P.S. i didnt order mine from Witglobal on ebay beacause he had only 1 feedbackand i found it from another seller

and i receive it in 9 days
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
Thanks for the images, how is the build quality ? does it look cheap as it cost ;)

do you think it wont slide out of the case if the case is hold vertically (being put in or taken out of a bag or something) ?

Also it would be great if you can post a link to that second seller you found :)

TIA
[G Tablet Accessories] nearxos:
The build quality is good better from other cases I saw. The first thing I did was to hold the case vertically and shake it to see if it will slide out.:) its very tight. I will post the link tonight
[G Tablet Accessories] wtang:
How do you insert the GTab into this case? Do you sort of snap it into the case from above, and the clips grab the tablet? Or do you sort of slide the tablet in from the side? If the clips are very tight, then I imagine sliding the tablet in from the side may scratch the edges of the tablet?
[G Tablet Accessories] nearxos:
i snap it into the case from above. but it its possible also to to slide it from the side but i thing its easier to snap it.

the seller i bought from ebay is specnur34
[G Tablet Accessories] kitsunisan:
Hmm, I may bite on this one, looks pretty decent for the price. Only concern I have is the tabs possibly scratching the pad...no, forget that, just remembered I have a Skinomi carbon skin coming in Monday, should keep it fairly protected. Should also take care of the exposed sides as well. One question though, when you have it propped up, how is the viewing angle? is the screen easy to see?
[G Tablet Accessories] Cocide:
Does the stand have anything on it to keep it against case (like a magnet or velcro), or will it just flap around loose?
[G Tablet Accessories] :
Just bought one also

Ok, so I have just bought this case from the ebay seller linked in the first post. I had looked at every case I could find and based on the cost to value proposition I felt like this was the best bet. Will post back after I get it... I appreciate the pictures posted a few posts back.
[G Tablet Accessories] nearxos:
the stand has a magnet
[G Tablet Accessories] setsudaj:
Did that seller have others? I may need another one and I don't want to wait 4 weeks
[G Tablet Accessories] :
Yes, and I already received shipping confirmation. Although I cant seem to get the tracking numbers to work just yet. However it was the fastest shipping confirmation I have ever gotten from an ebay seller.
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
Currently $13 to Canada ..

For some reason witglobal is offering free shipping to Canadian destinations.

Ordered early this morning ($13) and already received the shipping notice. :)
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
Do you mean the other seller quoted earlier ?

Here is his listings ..

Note though that it will come to $22 shipped and the seller ships from HK as well ;)
[G Tablet Accessories] Vlad_z:
Can somebody post a picture of this case folded back, please?
[G Tablet Accessories] Vlad_z:
Well, never mind, I just ordered it. Looks like right price for that case.
[G Tablet Accessories] hungarianhc:
Hmmm there are a lot of posts here, and nobody seems to have it! Well, oh well. I guess i'll go order it now and report back!
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
I guess you missed post # 16 (second page).
[G Tablet Accessories] brs330:
I ordered the case from witglobal on 3/30/11 for USD 15.99 shipped free, and got the tracking number yesterday 3/31/11.

I still can't get the tracking number RA**CN to work on the tracking website.

Edit: I am able to track the shipping now.
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
From ebay or from their website ?

I have never received an tracking number, just a shipping notification on the very same day of my order, I paid $12.99 shipped free though :p

Edit: never mind, I just found it on their webstore.
[G Tablet Accessories] CaliDreamer:
Some quick questions for the owners of this case out there:

- Does the front cover of this case fold all the way back to be flat agaist the back of the case? I'm just thinking of the comfort of holding the case and g-tab while in landscape without having anything flapping around.

- On a similar note,.. when in landscape, what do you do with the clasp? does it easiily tuck out of the way?

Thanks!
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
they have also added a tab-less version (with 4 straps) for $17
[G Tablet Accessories] brs330:
You can Track the shipping using the 17track site they provide in their shipping confirmation email.
[G Tablet Accessories] LuvDog:
Isn't that tabless version actually a kindle dx case?
[G Tablet Accessories] Tibedabeeto:
I pulled the trigger as well. 16 bux is not bad for this case. Now lets hope i get it.

"Fashion leather case for the Viewsonic GTablet"

eBay item # 320681517108

The above portfolio case just arrived:

PROS:

- Pretty nice fit

- access to all ports

- feels good to hold in portrait orientation (cover folded back)

- covers protrude about 1/16" beyond the size of the GTablet, providing just enough protection without making the unit too oversized to carry around.

- inexpensive ($16 delivered)

CONS:

- Vinyl cover (NOT leather as advertised)

(ugly Vinyl, at that, like a cheap grill cover)

- Kickstand works but is not adjustable - 1 angle only

- No inner pocket to any hold papers or business cards

- Weak magnetic clasp, not centered perfectly - but ok

ymmv

[G Tablet Accessories] insanityensues:
Hopefully I'll get mine in the next couple of weeks. This little tablet needs some protection in my backpack.
[G Tablet Accessories] dav_t:
I just got mine today, and am really pleased. I got the one with the built-in USB keyboard, and I simply plugged it in and it worked (no config necessary). I'm using the Vegan Ginger Experimental ROM, and it works great with it. I'm typing this post with the keyboard and it is much faster than using the soft keyboards.

The tablet feels secure in the clips, but they are just plastic clips and one side does not have a clip so that you can slide the tablet into them. Again, they hold the tablet well, but I don't plan on carrying it with the non-clip (short end of gtab where the 4 physical android buttons are) end facing downward just to be safe. The stand and clasp both use magnets to hold to the case and both work very well. Honestly, the case is much better quality than I was expecting for under $25. The form factor of the case is very small considering it houses the tablet and a keyboard and the material has a classy look to it.

The only drawback is a minor one for me, but to those who use the mini-usb port more frequently might be a bigger issue. One of the clasps that holds the tablet in place covers the mini-usb port. I use dropbox & pogoplug for transferring data to my tablet from my computer, so the only time I need to plugin to the computer is for the very rare occurences where I must NVFlash. I can't speak to the case's durability since I just got it, but I think if you are a road warrior who is tough on cases this might not be the case for you. The case seems sturdy enough for light to moderate use (more than adequate for me), but I suspect it might not hold up under more rigorous conditions.

Hope this helps anyone considering buying.

How long did it take for your cover to arrive after the vendor shipped it? I placed my order on 3/30. Just trying to estimate the arrival date.

Thanks

when i get mine in, i'll try to shoot a video.
[G Tablet Accessories] aNiMeMaN14:
Just got mine yesterday. I can give the case a comfortable recommendation. Sure, it might not be genuine leather (the price? hello people), but it sure does add to the already sexy look of my G-Tablet, and it doesn't add much in the way of bulk or weight.

The tablet feels stable enough in the case, although it is rather apparent that the case was not made specifically for the G-Tab. No bother however, as it still fits in rather nicely. I especially like the form factor, and the kickstand is a nice touch, and angles the tablet at a perfect position. If anyone's looking for a nice, first-time purchase case for their shiny new G-Tab, look no further.
[G Tablet Accessories] Vlad_z:
I'v got my case. For it's price it's very good. I think I will keep it for a while.
[G Tablet Accessories] dav_t:
Mine took about 3 weeks to get here from China.
[G Tablet Accessories] vaccdroid:
ANyone get this tabless version. Just ordered this one.
[G Tablet Accessories] :
Got my case today. It is well with the wait and price. I can recommend this as a great fit and more importantly the angle of the stand is prefect for viewing the crappy screen... (I'm kinda over the tablet as a whole, typing this short message was painfull at best. So many dead spots on the screen, and I did the touch screen calibration app several times. Its almost like using a resistive screen sometimes.)
[G Tablet Accessories] f'n around:
I have had this cover for about a week now, and I have to say it is good to go. It took three weeks together it, but for 16 bucks it is well worth the wait. My tab is fits snug with no worry of it slipping out. The kick stand is little disapointing, but I don't use that much. I use this far more thanmy case with the keyboard. The keyboard is nice at times, but i find myself not using it that often as it is cumbersome to use unless I am at my desk.

If you are looking for an inexpensive case this is truly a winner.

Btw I got the one with the tabs
[G Tablet Accessories] ubergeek4l:
Do the tabs hold the Tablet snug?
[G Tablet Accessories] f'n around:
Yes, very snug. I have no worry about it slipping out. The case with the keyboard on the other hand is a little worrysome. The difference is the internal fabric. The one with the keyboard is plether like the outside, but on they keyboardless one it is a feaux suade<-- no worries about screen scratches with it either because of this.
[G Tablet Accessories] slsmag:
Screen Callibation

Callibration made all of the difference in the world on my Gtab - but I am running a custom ROM (VEGAn beta 1 v5.11). I placed a callibration.ini file (which is an empty text file) in SDCARD/ so that the screen callibrates on each boot-up.

What ROM are you running?

- michael
[G Tablet Accessories] brs330:
My case with the tabs arrived today. It took 15 days to arrive. It fits snug and looks good. Like the stand too.
[G Tablet Accessories] :
Tent lite the latest version. The calibration app I downloaded from here has helped. I am coming from an galaxy tab recently and it was just so much more responsive.
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
Got mind today (4/13) ordered (3/28).

No complaints so far, except the dirt collector faux suede side (if you intend to use the stand per design).

Very snug fit, in fact I am not sure if you can slide the gtab into the case, I needed to force it inside the case by pulling the top tab as hard as possible.

For the price I paid its kind of a very cheap clip case ;)

I would give it 4/5, would recommend to others.
[G Tablet Accessories] johnsonjf:
I ordered one a week or so ago and am waiting for it to arrive. I was hoping for the tabs and not straps. Let's hope I get what I ordered!

[G Tablet Accessories] tarponbeach:
Just ordered one of these, can't wait to get it.

With regard to your screen issue (dead spots), mine was just like yours. I hated it, and was ready to take it back...until I found the solution in another post:

In the root of the internal SD and also SD2, create a file called "Calibration.ini". (you can do this in ES File explorer) Then reboot, and do not touch the screen. You will be amazed at how responsive the screen becomes. No dead spots. I now love my G-Tab. If you leave these two files in the root directories of SD & SD2, it will re-calibrate every time you reboot, so if you don't want that to happen, simply rename the files, or delete them.
[G Tablet Accessories] sci05:
Just ordered one too. Anyone else have problems tracking the shipping?
[G Tablet Accessories] slsmag:
What tracking?

(it ships from China. give it 2 - 3 weeks, it'll show up)
[G Tablet Accessories] sci05:
They provided a tracking number so it seemed like a reasonable question.
[G Tablet Accessories] slsmag:
Now I feel bad... I wasn't sent a tracking number - just a notice that it had shipped "regular Hong Kong Post".
[G Tablet Accessories] fooligar:
Anyone know if the magnets in this can cause any problems with GTablet's touch screen and/or battery?
[G Tablet Accessories] gbch:
received mine

I got the strap version, not the tab version. The fit is clean and secure, though the straps themselves seem to be secured to the case with single-thread stitching. The upper left strap covers the power button, the sd card slot door, and part of the volume button. The power and volume buttons can still be accessed and don't get triggered by the pressure of the straps, but you can't open the sd card door without removing the strap. The upper right strap covers the search button, but you can still press it by moving it out of the way and it doesn't seem to get triggered accidentally. The interior has a suede-like feel and might actually be leather, the exterior is definitely not leather. The strap that keeps the whole thing closed isn't really secured by anything other than a loop of fabric and is in the way when not in use. The stand adjusts to different angles that work great on a table but not very well on my belly. When folded under, the suede-ish lining picks up dirt like a chamois. Not spectacular but definitely worth the $17 shipped (ordered from their site 4/6, received in southern CA 4/19).
[G Tablet Accessories] usarmyaircav:
Thanks for the info. I am really debating on what case to get. I like the strap idea, but not sure if that really fits the bill for me. what to do :confused:
[G Tablet Accessories] slsmag:
magnets in cases - wifi affected?

I've been using the clip version for several weeks. No issues at all with the magnets affecting the screen display or touch-screen sensitivity/accuracy. However, I have noticed reduced WiFi reception when the GTab is in the case - and I wonder if the magnets are the cause.

- michael
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
me neither, but I paid $13 for mine, no complaints from me :)

Nothing but good things to report so far (clip version), holds the gtab snugly, absolutely no ports/buttons covered, tabs are covered with leather (no fear for scratching damaging the chassis).

No effect on the touch screen, and don't think the magnets are that strong to affect WiFi either (not sure though, I am still having full signal 2 walls away from my router just like I used to prior to using the case).
[G Tablet Accessories] johnsonjf:
Hey guys just letting you know mine shipped and I received it yesterday. I ordered directly from witglobal.com and unlike some of the other photos the model I ordered and received is the clip version. I am very picky about cases and have to say that is is probably the best one that I've come across (especially for the price). It looks really sharp and of reasonable quality (I had to snip a few loose threads from the stitching but it's well made). It really slims down the gtab unlike my Solo case I had that made the Gtab feel much more bulky. Also, my Solo case used the straps like most of the Kindle cases and it would interfere with the power button and was just generally annoying. Clips are the way to go!

Having the clips only on the sides do not concern me. They grip my Gtab tightly and I've flopped the case around trying to see if it will slide or even budge but so far it's held tight as ever. The only way I can see that the tablet will come out is if someone purposely bends the brackets, and I don't really see that happening. If it is a big concern you can always buy some Velcro to put on the back and while it's in the case it will be invisible.

If you want a slim case that looks alright and isn't an arm and a leg go for this one. It doesn't block any ports and really compliments the Gtab.
[G Tablet Accessories] johnsonjf:
Go for the clip version. I was wary of the clips myself but they really do hold the tablet securely. If you are worried you can always put a few strips of Velcro on the back of the tablet (the case has a nice study back so Velcro will work very nicely).
[G Tablet Accessories] johnsonjf:
Here you go
[G Tablet Accessories] johnsonjf:
Check out my reply in the thread with the pic showing the case folded back. It works very well folded back and it's about as flush as you are going to get with any case. As for the clasp, it DOESN'T tuck out of the way so I went to Wal-Mart to the hardware section and bought some Velcro squares. I put one of the outside of the clasp and the other square on the backside of the case so I can fold the clasp back. It works very well and it cost less than $2 for the Velcro.
[G Tablet Accessories] Vlad_z:
thanks, I like this case. It's a best for a money.
[G Tablet Accessories] vaccdroid:
Got the case and have to agree terrific for the money.
[G Tablet Accessories] tvu815:
Took 3 weeks but I got it. I love it. I have the tabbed version and like all previous posters it feels very secure. I have the case before where you had to manually enlarge the webcam hole and buttons (but real leather), which worked well except it was too "clucky" for me. It made my tablet feel bloated. This one is perfect. On a side note, I have the Skinomy skin and I think it decreases my sensitivity quite a bit. Anyone comment on this?
[G Tablet Accessories] johnsonjf:
I've got the Skinomi screen cover. I'm not sure if it decreased sensitivity to my Gtab because I put it on the moment I got the tablet, so I don't have a comparison.

You may want to try out the calibration app everyone is using:

Got mine yesterday, clips are metal with a leather feeling cover. They hold the Gtab very secure. I was trying to center it perfectly and had a hard time sliding the tablet left or right which is a good thing.

I like it, when propped open the stand holds it at a nice viewing angle and is easy to type with the split keyboard.

Interesting thing with the tracking from Witglobal. The number they gave referenced the DHL website that came back with an error. I just assumed the package was lost in transit as I placed my order 2 weeks ago and no tracking info came up. Then I noticed a link to another tracking website referenced in witglobals faq section. Through this site I ended up with a link to Canada Post.

Canada Post showed the package as delivered, I called home and sure enough it was there!

End result... check their faq page to get a link to a better tracking site.

I got my clip case a few days ago, not bad at all for the price, the clips hold the tablet in very snugly and the case fits well.

For $16 you can't lose really, it's not as nice as some of the fancier cases but the price is right and it will protect the device just fine.

Looks cool I might have to try this one also.
[G Tablet Accessories] snwbrdr:
Ordered my case from the witglobal eBay store on May 10, received it in the mail today. 1 week shipping from Hong Kong, not bad! The "leather" material is a textured vinyl, not the highest quality but it looks decent. The 3 clips are definitely snug and the case fits the tablet perfectly, I'm not worried about the tab sliding out from the sides at all. Overall for $16 shipped, I'm perfectly satisfied with the case and would recommend it to anyone looking for a cheap solution.
[G Tablet Accessories] bigblue206:
I purchased one of these from the ebay listing and it fits great. The friction of the tabs holds it in place nicely and case is actually pretty high quality. I have purchased cheap Chinese cases before and this one is much nicer than those.
