Here are some sleeves that fit perfect for our G-tablet. I found them at Marshalls for only 12$. Online they sell for about 20-30$! There made for the Ipad but work great. There are a couple of different colors to.
I got the one on the right...almost a perfect fit, it seems like the gtab is a teeny bit taller than the ipad so it's kind of tight at either end. Also has a thick, plush padding which is really nice. No pocket for any accessories though - just a plain and simple sleeve.
I also thought it was a little tight at first so I decided to look in the sleeve and sure enough there was a small demoisture bag inside! The memory type foam that's used for padding is awesome. My wife dropped the g in the sleeve twice from about 5 ft. and it still survived.

Just received this case,
http://www.caselogic.com/10_2_ipad_...l/index.cfm?modelid=154701&productid=10030361
Fits perfectly, the inside opening is a little thick, made for a 1.5" netbook but I added a couple layers of foam and the G Tab fits like a glove. Just about the perfect case and it's on sale.
It looks like a lunch bag.
I picked this up for my Acer 1. While I am waiting for my Malata M1 to arrive I have used it for my G-tablet and it is surprisingly perfect. It holds my tablet, charger, cleaning cloth and stylus very comfortably. Plus, it has a very professional look and feel.
Targus CityGear NetBook Case
After messing with a couple of bags, I ended up buying this one. It fits the gTab perfectly in the padded sleeve even with it inside of my sweet CaseCrown case and has room for my little Gear Head keyboard with multi-touch touchpad as well as the dock, and my foldable Arkon stand, the spare power adapter, and other odds and ends in the little compartments it has. It's fairly cheap too. My only negative on this bag is that the shoulder strap is not removeable.
The Encase neoprene sleeve for 10" netbooks really fits my GTab like a glove. It is kind of snug lengthwise and there is maybe 0.5" of extra space widthwise, but it comes very close to fitting the dimensions of the GTab. Unlike a lot of neoprene sleeves made for iPads or netbooks, this sleeve is more "rectangular" shaped instead of being more "square", which is good because the GTab is more rectangular than an iPad. Here a link to Amazon, but these are also on eBay.

I like that this one fits exactly L x W with no movement, it's thicker and leaves room for adding a little more padding or slipping in a slimline keyboard, there's also a zippered pocket that will hold the power adapter and stand without a problem.
The strap isn't detachable but can be used from the top, side or un-fasten a couple of Velcro straps and it becomes a shoulder strap.
The case is more rigid than the neoprene ones I found at OD, more along the lines of a laptop case.
Also couldn't pass up the price

That is a nice case. I may pick one up at that price for times when I'm going somewhere with just the GTab. I like the neoprene Encase sleeve I posted above for times when I'm putting the GTab into my bag and want just a little extra protection to prevent scratching my GTab.

I have a two year old daughter. And i work in the Automotive industry. So i needed something that would look professional and take a little bit of a beating.
So my search began. I saw some Otterbox style cases, but a little more that i wanted to spend. I visited my local, very over priced, Best Buys and saw some cases that i like but were a little expensive.
So off to the internet i went. I wanted to stay away from Ebay because i know they are full of Chinese knockoffs. So i went to Amazon, which i know isn't much better but i feel their customer care more about feedback then Ebay shoppers. So i stumbled across this case http://amzn.to/x9xHtX. It's a black leather CaseCrown Portfolio case. 66 Reviews and 4 out of 5 starts. Sure there are a few more that are higher in the ratings but don't have as many. So I went with it.
[first thoughts]
It came in last night. i opened the pack and it had thin plastic cover and very generic label on it. and i thought oh great, this will be a piece of crap case. So i wrapped it around my Transformer and i must say i am very impressed with it. The fit is tight, it's not loose, doesn't slide around, and fits like a glove. No way this is a generic case. It wouldn't fit my parents Acer A500, it's too thick, and no way it would fit my friend's iPad. It's way to thin. The leather feels good, if it is faux leather. I cannot tell. on the inside of the case, where the binding on a book would be there is a little vlecro piece that keeps the TF in place while the cover is open. I'm sure it's standard on this style case, but just a nice little security feature that i like. The holes for the camera are nice and open, they don't give a tunneling effect to the pictures. The other nice little deal i noticed is the cover has magnets (don't ask me how they work, i'm not Mormon) that will keep the cover down when you are not using the device.
first impressions are "i'm very pleased, and would recommend".
In a few days, maybe on Monday, I'll post a follow up after a few days use, and let the newness wear off. Pictures will follow tonight as well.
for those of you looking for a good sleeve, waterfield makes a "sleevecase" that is a pretty perfect fit:
http://sfbags.com/products/sleevecases/sleevecases.php
i emailed with their sales guys and we concluded that size 20-14 is the best fit they have. i can confirm it is a good snug fit when the TF201 is docked. if you only put the tablet in then of course it is a bit looser.
imo this is a great solution for carrying around the TF201+dock in a bag/backpack/etc like you would a laptop. easy to get the tablet in/out of the bag without having to remove the sleeve itself. the padding is thick and provides good protection. total price for the basic sleeve (no flap or strap) was $45 shipped, which is in the vicinity of other high-quality cases.
note, if you want a sleeve just for the tablet then you should probably look at their "tablet ultimate sleevecase" instead. those sleeves have stiff plastic sewn into one side to help protect the screen, along with a lining to help clean the screen, so they are a bit more expensive. i'm not sure what the best size is, if you email them they generally respond same day.

This case looks amazing! I have been looking for something like this since getting my prime, and despairing that I can only find sleeves. Question: Would you recommend the horizontal or vertical orientation?
Many thanks!
Edit - I found a pretty nifty case at Staples by SwissGear that's pretty much the same as the case by Waterfield, only less fancy and cheaper
Will this Amazon Basics Case fit the bill?

Waterfield makes quality products.
Purchased the SiKai MicroFiber case for the Lenovo IdeaPad K1 Tablet. Delivery was within the UK and didn't take too long, about 5 days including the weekend.
I paid £15.19 delivered from Ebay UK Item number: 200647561882
The case is made from a strange type of plastic material, it's quite soft and flexible. Am kind of glad rather than faux leather. It is very thin and light, but seems sturdy enough to protect the tablet around the house. I have a 10" netbook bag that I keep it in when travelling to add extra protection.
I like it since it makes it easy to carry around with you and doesn't add bulk to it. I would say the case is lighter than my official HP Touchpad case and similar in strength, although a different material. I can only compare it to the ROOCASE Multi-Angle Leather Case and can say it is much thinner and lighter than that.
There is only one angle that the case allows for, but since it is an Android tablet you can flip the whole thing round and get a lower angle. Its fine for watching at night when streaming video so its not an issue for me.
Price wise the only options available to me at the time were the faux leather ones for about £9.99 or the official case from the Lenovo website coming in at a hefty £34.99 once you add the crazy £10 delivery charge! Not many options in the UK unfortunately but am glad I did some research and found this case.
Other things that you might notice in the photos (sorry poor camera phone ones) there is a place to put a pen, all cut outs seem correct and I love the fact that I can charge it without having the case open, also the hdmi port is free.
Not sure how long it will last but considering the few days usage of it, the minor things like the tablet can slide a tiny bit inside the case so would have preferred a tighter fit (although will try and adjust the velcro again that closes once you slip the tablet inside), the cut out by the front facing button could be a bit lower, and the magnetic clasps to be quite weak I will give this case an 8/10 and can recommend it.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SiKai-MicroFiber-case-Lenovo-IdeaPad-Tablet-K1-case-/200647561882
great case! I bought this sikai case too and actually prefer it more than the original lenovo K1 case.
This covers all ports, and also has a great microfiber texture that is slightly grippy, while remaining smooth to the touch. does not attract dust at all and keeps the K1 snug (if it feels loose, readjust the velcro tighter).
recommended!
Yeh have tightened it a bit more, doesn't move as much.... Glad I chose this over the cheaper cases and the official one which was more than double the cost here in the UK.
Can't believe how dead this forum is for this tablet, going to see if there are anymore forums with more support....
Just got this tab last week and love it so far. Looking for a good case but hate the leather, faux leather look.
Please let me know if you find more forums as I have looked and am surprised how little I've found....
I know of one other decent one, google "lenovo community K1"

Cool will do.
This case is pretty good if you want something thin and light, there are stronger/more protective cases out there but they add bulk and I don't want that since I use this round the house...... Still glad I bought this case and find it better in that respect to the Roocase.....
Thanks, will google what you said.....
Got the SiKai for my TPT. Everyting else looks bulky in comparison. It is extremely thin (I''ve tried a lot of gadget cases over the years), and although it's screamingly vinyl, it doesn't look really cheap since it fits so well. Leather like this might come off as over-the-top (not that I wouldn't probably sucker into that if I could find it). It's got the seam around the edge where it cushions a drop, and the magnetic closure on the flap is a great touch, not too powerful, but it stays closed well enough.
My gripes are with the screen cover flap: it leaves two stripes on my matte screen protector where the fold places rub off the grease I thought I cleaned off last night, it doesn't hold the tablet vertical enough to really use, and it's busy looking on the front. If I had a choice in the design, I would leave off the "stand" capabilities and leave it flat. If it's open, it's really floppy; it would be easier to manage if it were entirely rigid. I might add a hide-able tether & a knob/button so you could stand it up on its other edge more vertically instead.
All in all, for the price I paid (US$26-ish), I'm very happy with it. If Piel Frama comes up with something, though, I might check that out, if only to drool. I still love my old Wizard case, and my Advantage case from them, too. Very lovely, solid product, and they've been keeping customers happy for a long time.
Addendum: After a couple of months with it, mine is holding together just fine. I had to trim a bit of vinyl fringe, butvall vinyl does that ( it frays a bit after it's freshly cut, but after you trim it once, unless it's cut really crooked, you're done). I have noticed that after a bit of stretching from the daily+ in & out I do to use the dock, it's loose enough to partially obscure the rear camera, not to mention trying to take pics with the flap cover is a huge PITA. If I used this camera a lot, I'd be totally fed up with this case. I may also be melting a bigger hole for the speaker (whch is hard-core disappointing to begin with). All in all, though, that's it for my complaints, which is pretty rare for me.I plan on cloud storage sync and a great cam on my next phone to use the tab for pviewing,
To be fair the official HP Touchpad case does the same thing to my Touchpad so it's one of those things.
I use the same case for my Thinkpad Tablet, and it's the best I've encountered so far, albeit with some flaws of it's own: Some of the stitching on the inside of the cover is already beginning to fall apart after ~1 Month of usage :-/
Stitching has been fine on mine, maybe tell the reseller to exchange it?
Wow cool.... but its little bit expensive
Anyone find any good tpu cases?
I found a couple on Amazon but most with bad reviews. Most complaints were that the cases do not fit.
I found this one.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I86GGII/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_22zhtb0CC8DKH
It has no reviews yet and I bought it ...I don't have it yet... But let's hope it's good.
I have this one. It fits. It's snug, but it fits. The buttons are pretty hard to press though. It will do until some other options come out I guess!
If I could have any case for this device, I would want a Gumdrop Bounce Skin.
My wife has one for her Ipad air with a glass screen protector and there is nothing like it. Survives drops and a 5 year old, feels great to touch, sticks to your hand so you can use if one handed without a strap, sticks enough to a table or whatever so you can just lean it up against anything (wall, pillow, monitor, shelf, pencil holder, ...) and it stays at the same angle you set it down at, easy.
I just love this thing. If gumdrop doesn't make it, I'm going to have to bribe a silicone guy and get him to copy one for me. I think I could almost duplicate it with RTV silicone rubber if I bought two of them cut them up to fit and then did a two part mold, but it would take a bit of thinking and I don't know how well RTV silicone would last (but it would have the right shore A hardness to feel great and "stick" in all the right ways).
The best thing about the case is that while it grabs lint and stuff like most silicone cases, it does not feel bad and does not inhibit its stickiness. This might not make sense to you if you aren't acutely aware of everything you touch and how it feels (and I wish I didn't), but if you are sensitive to it, this is amazing. Now I haven't covered it in baby powder or anything, but it is amazing not having to worry about tossing it on a pile of laundry or the bed or the carpet and it not getting so covered in tiny dust that you feel like you have to wask it off. Even my otterbox for my GS4 makes me feel like that sometimes, but not my wife's gumdrop bounce, man I'm envious of that skin.
If you want here is the link to it on amz. for the ipad. they even have it in like 7 colors, I just wish they made it for the Note pro.., maybe they will.

I got my Poetic Graph Grip yesterday. I'm pretty torn about it. The fit is great, it is much better protection than the Fosmon case linked above that I have, it is comfortable to hold BUT... it is heavy!! It adds a significant amount of weight to an already large tablet. And it also seems to be a bit of a dog fur/dust magnet. Which is a problem in a house with three dogs! So I'm not sure whether I will continue to use it or not.
OK I got the tpu case.... And it's pretty good. The buttons are a little hard to press especially the power button.... Other than that it's not bad.
