Just got my Prime and think it's fantastic. I am a photographer and I intend to use the Prime for my business. Now my laptop bag is huge I would like something a little smaller for the Prime, any suggestions. Thanks.

Muscling in on your request. A smaller messenger bag would be wonderful and an improvement over my sleeve!

It's not really a messenger bag, but I just picked up the Rock Hopper from RedOxx.com
It is a very well constructed bag and the prime fits perfectly in one of the inside pockets.
this the bag i got for my prime fits the tablet and the dock plus all my extra cords and stuff. http://www.amazon.com/Case-Logic-Ul...6&sr=8-2&keywords=caselogic+transformer+prime
I bought this one and is pretty cool

This is the one I decided on I have another STM that has taken an absolute beating and doesnt show it.

Looks nice!
The small Timbuk2 laptop messenger bags work well, and they are really, really well constructed. I also saw a pretty sharp looking small laptop bag at Banana Republic this weekend.

I got this on a great deal on rue la la. Thanks to my wifey for keeping an eye out for me. It has a nifty padded and securable spot for tablets. The small is on sale now for $64. That'a ll the room you need.

I use that one to.. It's really nice.
Was my first STM bag, and won't be my last.
I got this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B007D0YKTC
It's great; big enough to carry extra bits and pieces but you hardly notice you're carrying it. Also the bag goes behind you so it doesn't look like a man-bag. Seems well made too.
I prefer leather and here is mine:

this is a very good case and has a lot of pockets for other stuff but doesnt look bulky.

I ordered this case last week and so far I am really loving it. First things first, I really like the build quality. The case gives you alot of options with different viewing angles which is nice. It has leather on the outside and felt on the inside. All ports are accessible and you can even plug into the keyboard dock without having to remove from the case (huge bonus for me). I don't have anything to compare to but it seems very slim. I have never been a case guy for my phones but with a tablet I don't think it matters as much. Overall I am very glad I bought it. For the price, $25, the quality is second to none. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. Link to sale site below.

Edit: i do want to add that I just noticed the speakers look like they might be covered in the pix but when you take off the bumper guard you can see they are not covered at all. If anyone cares.....
Case looks nice. I just brought the rotating one but this looks really good.

I bought the rotating one too and hate it
The popper is a stupid idea, impossible to remove and attach with the TF insde without almost cracking the screen from the back
Should have been Velcro I think, I might replace it
Also the TF doesnt sit straight inside it, so the camera is partially covered by the back of the case

I don't know. Very sturdy so it SEEMS like metal. It's covered in leather so hard to tell.
I have the blurex case same as OP and love it. I've had several different tablets and tried most all the versions of cases, and this Blurex is the best I have ever had. It is extremely functional also looks really classy.
I ordered the Blurex case after reading your review and I just got it in the mail today. Its really nice, the fit is perfect with no slipping or sliding. The only thing I dont like is that the bottom is quite tight so its kind of awkward to put into the stand mode. Im sure itll break in though with use.

Yeah its gets a little more loose. But to be honest I like having it somewhat hard to get out. I just have to add, it passed to toddler test this weekend with flying colors
I bought this from Amazon after reading this review.
Great case, really nice. Thanks!
Picked up this case from Amazon UK to replace a previous case, love it, really well made, solid professional finish and really light.
I think the best part is having 100% of the screen area visable

It looks like it may play well with the dock too. Has anyone tried docking it with the case on?

Yeah definitely. Big reason I bought I it actually and it did not disappoint. The case does not cause any extra steps to get the tab docked.
anybody have a pic with the case on and docked?
Here u go dude. U obviously cannot close the case while docked but everything else is cool.
just ordered one thanks to this review for bringing it to my attention. Hope I like it. Was really hoping for something like the speck candy case for the ipad. Can't such a beast so got this guy. Thks
I love this case.
Ordered and received this case because of this review. I love it. When it is closed, it feels very durable, and I don't worry about breaking the transformer. When opened, the different viewing angles are perfect.
Thanks for posting this review and steering me towards this case!
What do u guys think of these? Anyone own either of these?

Ive got one of these coming for mine.
I wanted an EVA case yet not too huge/heavy. The strap/handle seems flexible so it can securely "sling" for a bike/skate trip, but also carry like a briefcase.
I also like the added room (sunglasses, wallet, possibly charger).
I'll give a review once I get it and have some hands on experience.

I've seen the CaseCrown up close and personal. My buddy bought it for his Galaxy Tab 10.1. Nice case, well designed and constructed. For the price I think you'll be happy.
I've got the Targus case and love it. It's got 2 compartments so it'll fit both the tablet and dock separately or together.
Timbuk2 Quickie Carry Bag- real nice!
Picked up one of these (Size Small) from amazon and it is real nice as a small tablet bag for the Prime, with full shoulder strap. A little pricey, but Highly recommended. Great build construction with lifetime warranty to protect the prime, and 2 side pockets for the charger and phone. It's smaller than it looks in the picture- just a little larger than the tablet itself
Insulated very well inside with well constructed bubble membrane foam, to protect the tablet from vibrations.
My Prime has a leather case and it fits great inside this bag !!! A nice compromise between a sleeve and a full size laptop bag, with still a good amount of room for charger and cable! I think the Prime with the Keyboard dock should fit nicely too!

Okay so I'm having a problem where my prime will not stay on the table without sliding off in class (inclined surface). Does anyone know of anything I can buy to have this device stay in one place? It's only a matter of time before this thing flies off the table lol.

This should work; Non-slip mat
You should find something similar for place mats in most home good stores or walmart/target. My mother uses a ton of these for rugs, seat cushions, and even drawers.
Does your dock not have the 4 circular rubber "feet"? Mine are pretty grippy, even on my lacquered desk surface.
A great alternative though would be some eGrips circles. I've used them before on various things and they're super grippy.

Hey guys, just wanted to post my video review of this case. It really is a great case an I have been using it with my TP whenever I don't have it docked. I am looking forward to the release of their Portfolio case, which is essentially the same as this one except it holds the keyboard dock as well.
I included a coupon code for Amazon, it should make this case about $10. Enjoy!
Coupon: TF201PRO

Thanks bud.. Just ordered, code worked for me!
I also really like the Poetic Case. Doesn't add a lot of bulk, yet provides good protection. I like that it does not cover the bezel, unlike other leather cases such as the Caseen. My only critique is that the grooves in which the Prime rests in at 3 angled positions could be a bit deeper, as sometimes the Prime will slip out of the groove, particularly the first narrower angle groove. Other than that, great case for the price!
May I have the a coupon code? Want to order one for my Prime. Many thanks.

I added it to the OP now. I was in the description on Youtube...
Great case. I bought it for utility as a stand/cover but I dropped it on the pavement one day trying to carry too many groceries.
Not a scratch.
Thanks for the review and the coupon. I have one coming my way for $9.95!
I bought mine last night. Its my first case for my prime. I'm still saving for my dock. It was eligible for amazon prime so It will be in today hopefully. Your code didn't work for me though. Still looked like a great case from your video.

Anyone have a quick fix for how to get it to sit in the slots more stable? They aren't deep enough to hold the prime in place sometimes.

I actually had to go look, but you are correct, there are no holes for the speaker...
Kind of a bummer, heh I didn't even notice though.
It's plenty loud without the holes.. I was just watching a TV show and my wife told me to turn it down.
Great case, especially with the coupon code.. Very happy with it.
I wonder why mine has holes and yours does not? That is strange.

You got the case with the white stitching (as opposed to black stitching) around the outside edges, right? I know they sold 2-3 versions of the case that are very similar to each other, but not the exact same.
My case has black stitching, or very dark, if you will.
For the money, this really is a good case. I've been very happy with it so far. I only bought till better cases came out ,but now I like it so much I haven't even bothered to look for something different.
I'm considering buying this one, because I'm looking for a slim case (tablet only) with some viewing angle stands, and this one looks really nice.
Do anyone of you have it? Would you recommend it? Does the tablet get damaged from the sides?
thanks!
I would recommend this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007P657RI/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01 over the VersaSleeve, I have both and the VersaSleeve is more of a carrying case (for tablet+dock).
i want the new one they made for the T201. Does anyone know if it will fit ours?

Somewhat fits, but don't think it fits properly - read somewhere that the cover doesn't quite properly clip on securely.
Wouldn't go there myself though.
Mine arrived from samsclub.com. Looks like a quality piece and I like the shiny brown material the sleeve is made with.

Any chance you could post a few on device pics and some close ups please? The versasleeve is on my very short list as I want more of a carrying case that a cover.
I got mine today, and I must say, it's super awesome!!
If you don't want a case that sits stuck on your table, and want more of a carrying bag that double acts as a dual-view stand for your tablet, this is perfect!
Just got one today from Buy.com. I'm using it for a tablet + keyboard carrying case which seems to be its best use. Looks nice...

Yes...
I use the VersaSleeve for a couple of months now, and I think it's great. As said earlier, it really is a 'carrying bag' which also doubles as a stand for the tablet. But if you want to use the tablet, you need to take it out of the 'bag', which is a big advantage for me because I don't want to hold a tablet and extra case, which makes it only heavier and thicker.

How does Versa Sleeve do with the docking? I think you can carry both the tab and the keyboard, but is it possible to USE the "netbook" version without taking it out of the sleeve? Any picture to show it mounted?

I am very happy with the MoKo Flip Stand Cover Case
Here is the one i am using and i just cannot get over how much i freaking love it.. I am beyond impressed. Its 12 bucks.. took about 2~3 weeks to get here. But well worth the wait. My step mom got a case for her Kindle, has the option of putting it up in a prop mode. Like for watching movies. But she paid freaking 30 bucks for it. The quality of my case is (in my mind) better than hers, it has the function to rotate the device to prop it up in landscape or portrait. I cannot explain in words how amazed i am. Prolly the best quality product i have ever gotten from China.

How's the buttons, port and slim case? Does it fits properly?
How's the build quality? Does it leave any mark on the screen when close? I have this case on my kindle and it kinda leave stripe mark due to the fabric from the case but it can be easily removed by wiping and doesn't leave any scratch. I also want this one but items from this area usually takes 2 weeks minimum.
Another thing it looks like it provides 2 viewing angle, on my kindle its only stable when landscape and it falls back when portrait mode especially for lower angle viewing.
would appreciate if you post pic showing the thickness and how it stand for both landscape and portrait in both viewing angle.
I think I will be getting this one especially available in prime
I have the versa sleeve. Got it on samsclub.com for like 12$ thanks to someone here on xda posting the sale!
I like it a lot for my needs. I had a thick poetic case, but it was too bulky. I prefer to use the tablet naked and then have the sleeve to use as a stand/carrying case. It is thick, durable and I don't worry about it when I throw the tablet in my messenger bag. The stylus loop on it is a plus.
