Clear TPU / gel cases for the Prime? - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Looking for one of these but I can't seem to find one yet. Do I just need to give it time, or am I missing something already out there?

The moment I find one ill post it here. Those ARE the best type of cases for phones and tablets. I've tried em all and the cheap ass tpu's are the best....

Yeah, I have a CruzerLite "smoke gray" one for my Droid Charge and I love it!

we all appreciate it i have a TPU argyle one on my Atrix (original with finger scanner) and i believe there the best ( also i think when i do find one im going to cut a spot for the dock to slide on )

I think if you trim it where it would fit in the dock it would be all floppy. I like the idea of cutting the back out so its like a, please don't sue me, iPhone bumper. There's a guy that did one for his galaxy nexus and it looks pretty sick.

I really don't like the feeling of TPU cases, I prefer silicone. I guess it is just preference. I think the prime deserve something of better quality like leather or aluminum will be good.

Still nothing. My wife has one on her gtab10.1 and it feels bomb on there. I think these should start hitting the market sooooooo soon. I'm not getting anything till one of these comes out because I've done a ton of cases on phones and tablets and I still think are what you really want!
I've dropped my htc evo from ear level numerous times and she just keeps coming out clean.....

yes. need these! keep yer eyes peeled boys!

anyone find one yet
any links on finding a cover yet? (so far i just have the skinomi screen same as i put on my atrix but with the back cover part to)

I have been looking daily and been disappointed e every day.. Smh

You know what though? I was bored the other day and searched for tpu cases for the O.G. transformer and I couldn't even find one! I saw some silicone cases which I'm not a fan of but this is not a good sign for are tpu case hunt. I pulled the trigger and got a portfolio case (also not a fan of) cause my prime needs protection.

Not good >.> iv had the same result....someone in china is bound to make them at some point so we must have faith!

(Back order =hell ) asus T -prime :banghead:

I've been searching ever since I placed my order. Usually eBay is loaded with them but like from a few posts up, neither the OG Transformer or Prime has any TPU gel cases. I don't know why accessory makers wouldn't make them for the Transformer tablet.
I use these type of cases with all of my cell phones. They slide in and out of jean pockets so easily as opposed to silicon which catches on the denim. I've torn those cases before because I get frustrated when I can't get my phone out of my pocket.
I would think these would exist considering both the OG and the Prime are in such high demand. I mean, they made TPU cases for the Xoom for cryin' out loud.

they had a couple for the A500 buy haven't found any for the prime

Yea I am also waiting on a clear/colored tpu case for my prime. Bought me a sleeve from BB to hold me over. You would have thought that people would be making these cases or at least in R&D for them. I can not stand leather anything so all these portfolio cases and such are not for me.

These cases need to come out quick!! My prime is just plain looking for the floor....

I just figured it out.... actually someone posted it in another thread and it makes perfect sense. There is very little case support for the prime and og TF because most people buy it with a dock and they figure people don't want to take a case on and off to dock it. Well I didn't but it for the dock and I'm mad I can't get the type of case I prefer.

I am holding out for silicon... or saline will do
BTW if you search eBay for "Asus tf101 silicone" you will see they were made for that so i think that gives us hope.

It be nice for seidio to make a surface case like the evo 3d design for the tfp. Or otterbox types as well. A tpu would be cool.

Looking for a hard case

I have looked and looked. But I can't find a hard case for my TP. Has anyone come across one?
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
Are you talking about the shell or jacket type that many phones snap in to or a case that the tablet is placed in during transport? I haven't seen any on the first kind but have come across a sweet storage case that has a hard shell.
I am interested in one myself, that or a silicone gel skin. I just want to maintain thin and light without adding bulk.
I'm waiting for a sweet TPU case, that would be amazing!
One for operation. Something that it will stay in 24/7. There is one that Zag makes for the galaxy tab 10. I dropped my TP the other day and almost cried lol.
I found lots of leather cases but no hard cases. I am going to get learner until I can find a good hard case. (or maybe make one...lol)

Need tough case. Any ideas?!?!?!?!

Hey, I plan on getting the new transformer prime soon when I have the time to find it in stock. The question is, how am I going to protect this badboy? I dont care about the leather case that makes the tablet look elegant, I want a good case that stays on the tablet at all times while making it usable (sleeves don't make it into this category). I want it to be like this so there is no fear of dropping the tablet and watch this beauty be destroyed. Ideally, I want this case to be for the tablet, but if there's one that fits the keyboard too, that would be awesome!!
Nothing yet. Tab is still very new. Hoping for a gumdrop or otter box type case.

Hoping for a Ballistic or Otterbox. Ballistic has been awesome for my HTC EVO and XOOMs.
Waiting......
Tough? Look at the Pelican tablet cases
http://www.pelicancases.com/laptop-cases-s/24.htm
Just ordered the 1085 pelican with foam. Should be able to hold the dock, the tab, and my hard drive. Along with some cables and memory cards.

Good choice... in the weapons world Pelican makes ballistic quality cases you can trust to protect.

Can anyone help me find a case like this?

I have this case for my Galaxy 10.1 and I want something similar for my Prime, but I cant find it. Maybe I'm using the wrong search words I don't know but if anyone knows where I can find one please post a link. This case has been great I have a dock but don't use it as much as I thought I would, I just need something simple like this, it feels real nice to hold also, its been one of the best purchases I've ever made. I want the case to cover everything but the slots no corners left open, everything covered except plug holes, the type that has the rubberized gel silicone type feel to it. Here is a link to the one I have for my Galaxy 10.1, I'm looking for something pretty much the exact same as this Protective Silicone Skin Cover http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0056397UK/ref=oh_o04_s00_i00_details
Thanks for any help in advance
Seems like cases for the transformers are not pouring in like hot cakes. I also want a tpu type case.

Why would someone build a case for a discontinued product?
It's not been discontinued. It's still in production.
I just ordered this for now. http://www.amazon.com/TF201-Transformer-10-1-Inch-Leather-Acase/dp/B006OGMGVA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1330055806&sr=8-3
Solid choice...
Great choice. That's the case I have and I've been very pleased with its quality, light weight, and snug fit. I also like that it is completely cut out around the speaker (identical competitor cases from Poetic, Mako, and others are not). You can also charge it while it's in the case and closed! Trust me, you'll be very happy with your choice.

iPad style front cover

Hiya guys,
I was thinking of buying a TF101 after my sister showed me her iPad and I became really jealous! Only thing I liked the look of though was her smart cover.
I was wondering of there is anything like that for the TF101, the only important stuff is is has to be thin and act as kickstand.
I saw the sikai cases and they look good but the material colours don't quite seem to go well with the tablet and the folding stand doesn't seem to click in a triangle to stop it flying about.
Ideally I liked the look of the TranSleeve for the prime. Is there an equivalent for the TF101 because I don't want the dock and only bothered about keeping the screen safe, I'm not too bothered about the back!
Your opinions will be very welcome and thanks guys!

I know what you mean, I like the apple ipad 2 style case. I never found one exactly like that, but this one is is the best case I've seen so far:
http://www.amazon.com/rooCASE-Leath...ndroid/dp/B005B2K1I8/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
It's a roocase. I bought this and love it.
@Apollostees Thanks for your reply.
I didn't think I was going to find anything like the iPad's but it was worth a try! I saw something similar for the Galaxy Tab but I hate the look of TouchWiz. Instead I'll just go for the Archos G9 because it's pretty cheap and has a kickstand. I'll buy a proper tab when I find one I like the look of - unless of course I cave in and get an iPad!
I think Apple has a patent on the magnetic front cover.
Micro Fiber Asus Transformer Slim Case.
I recently came across this micro-fiber Asus Transformer Slim Case and am still considering buying it. I like the fact that it will protect my tablet and the fact that it offers many different angles to display the screen. http://secondshells.com/tablet-bran...nd-infinite-adjustable-stand-pearl-white.html
Hope this helps.

Case for tablet only

I' looking for a case which helps the tablet stand up but without a magnetic button to close it.
I feel eventually the magnet will move as it has done with my phone case which is really nice but doesn't snap close anymore. It probably won't happen so soon with the tablet but I prefer a non-magnetic closed case. Found one on Amazon UK but it's £20 and looking for something cheaper.
Asus has a nice (for a while) slim casethat uses velcro on back under a flap to hold it but its 40 dollars and after about 3 months it gets loose but holds in the tab... not bad other than that (ive been using it since january)

I believe the RooCase Ultra Slim does not have a magnet... maybe someone who owns one can verify that?
Thanks for the replies.
I have looked at many threads on here but they don't have an update of what the case is like months after so the Asus one could be an option. I'd prefer under £20 though but I am open to suggestions.
Oh please, don't get the Asus one. It is overpriced and quality is bad. Only suckers buy it.
Get something like this http://www.amazon.com/BLUREX-Leathe...Y8VA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334325561&sr=8-1
It is slim and provides adequate protection.
I have this one http://www.amazon.com/Acase-Transformer-Leather-10-1-Inch-Android/dp/B005D1Q6J0/ref=pd_cp_pc_3
Had it for about 2-3 months now and no problems at all. I actually wanted to buy the Blurex case but that wasn't in stock back then.
I recently purchased this Asus Transformer Rotating case with built in multi angle stand from amazon http://www.amazon.com/Asus-Transfor...ZK/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1334338068&sr=8-11 Case works great and is very stylish.
Thank you for your posts. Can't seem to locate those on Amazon UK.

seems cheap and has mainly good reviews and is pretty cheap...i dont own it but im looking for a case and screen protector for my just purchased tf101
SilverViking,
You can't find any of those amazon listings? That's weird. Try this link: http://www.amazon.com/Asus-Transfor...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1334949614&sr=1-1
OH, and ctr01, the link above is for a case, screen protector, and free sylus pen. I bought one, and it's really nice. The stylus is pretty cheap, but I don't use it much.

good to know but I don't trust spending 30+ for an item that only has 2 reviews...i don't need a stylus and i'm sure i can find a combo deal or separate deal on screen protectors. thanks though.
My link is for a $12 case that has 120 reviews and almost all are 3+ star reviews and it has combo deals for stylus and/or screen protectors too.
My Roocase does use a magnetic closure.
Here's a dirty cheap ($5) case. Even has an offer for a free stylus:
http://www.amazon.com/YooMee-Transf...?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1338196764&sr=1-17
Also has a $7.50 version similar to the earlier case but without the free stylus:

Saw this over in the Kindle forum where they mentioned a case with the same style as my first here but when I saw the company also offered Transformer cases thought I'd post here.

I had one of the cases from Amazon with the hard plastic lock. I didn't like that there was no way to access the charge port while it was closed and the speakers were on the bottom while playing music/video using the stand in landscape. I put my transformer in upside down and the lock bent the charge port.
I tried a few other cases, but the one I've liked the most so far has been from Newegg market: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA0U008T4548
While in portrait view it doesn't stand terribly well as the grooves are a tad shallow. The closure for it is an elastic band, but I hardly use it.
