Hi,
Does anyone have any recommendations for dell venue 8 cases? I've been looking everywhere and all I see are cases for the pro series. I found one but the black color is out of stock on amazon with only purple and pink colors left, which I don't want haha.
I have an Evercase in black that I got from Amazon as it was about the only option available at the time.
It does not fold over backwards or stand as well as it possibly could. Otherwise a nice looking quality product. Has to be left open to charge, kind of bothersome. So I'd give it 3.5 stars on design, 4 stars on quality and 5 stars on price.

This was the only one I was able to find too, but the black sold out when I posted this and was not available for backorder. Looks like i'm now able to back order it.

Oh sweet, thanks, I wasn't able to find this the last time I tried to look for a case. This one looks real nice and it looks like it has a magnetic cover too. I might get this one but I'm not sure what to pick between the two.. decisions decisions..
Does anyone know any good cases that can be sold in Canada? The Amazon link only ships to US addresses. I'm interested in getting the Dell Venue 8 but all the good cases I've found are either for the Venue 8 Pro or the Venue 7...
Thanks,

I bought the Targus Kickstand Case for $14.99 from Dell with my Venue 8, and while and it fits the tablet very nicely, it blocks the charging port when closed and it lacks a loop to stash a stylus. Other than that, it is a nice solid well made case.

The description is wrong though. The case has no stylus holder which kinda annoys me... I'm thinking about ordering the other case for it which does have a stylus holder. Also this case blocks the charging port when it is closed. I'll link some pics of it soon if you'd like.

I just got this today. It's a nice little cover, with a magnet that keeps the cover shut. It's lean and pretty much keeps the form factor. I am going to get two, in fact - I ordered one from China due around 1/15, but then Amazon decided to ship it themselves and with my Amazon Prime membership, I just pulled the trigger and got it shipped in two days.
I got a case from ebay for about $15 came with a stylus, will post a review when it arrives.
As far as screen covers, i got the Armorsuit from amazon.It looked pretty crappy when I put it on, but by the next day it really cleared up and looked incredible (per the instructions). It comes with some liquid spray that helps with positioning and squeezing out bubbles.
More of a lurker, will root and flash CM11 when the heavy lifting is done. But I am here for emotional support, cheering you all on from the sidelines. I still use my samsung Captivate on CM10.2 thanks to hard workers like you guys. Could never figure it out without the walkthroughs.
Just got the Poetic case today from Amazon and am pretty happy. The fake leather is soft and it doesn't have a bad smell like some reviews have noted. Also size wise it is very comfortable. After reading other reviews I was worried it might be to big. Not the case for me. Another nice touch is the magnetic seal when closing the case.
Some small critiques: there is a small amount of shifting so that the alignment of the camera to the hole is off. Functionally not an issue but when looking it is obviously not centered. Also while the quality of the build seems top notch I would not be surprised if it fell apart suddenly after being exposed to water or a dog.
If any thing changes I will update is post.

Just got mine today. It looks pretty cheap and cheesy. The seams are only single stitched. The case dies not make it any less awkward to hold as it has no holding strap. Alignment is crooked as it's obviously not centered. It merely slips in to cut out fake leather and tuna flap secures with vecro. Have to leave case open to plugin data cable. The stand up flap is a cheesy design.
For $15 shipped came with stylus and screen protector.
I will metro it to avoid the hassle of eBay returns.... But I will also snap pic so you can steer clear of it.

Bought the ivso case off Amazon for 18.5 I think. I like the case a lot but the metal on the flap may scratch your screen. I took the metal piece off and the case looks better imo and is still functional. it also keeps the form factor, I'll take some pics later.
I also bought the joto screen protector, don't know about durability but I like it.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Foldable-Stand-...Accessories&hash=item4aaaed0f5b#ht_6111wt_937
What do you think? I might order it
Looks terrible. The display tablet isn't even a Transformer.
wow, looks the one I've been waiting for, leather and functional, usable while still in the case, not expensive too.
I wonder how tightly it holds the tablet...don't think I'd trust this thing if its the kind of elastic I'm thinking it is.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
those of us that came from the gtab went through these corner elastic cases. the elastic loosens withing a few weeks and you are left with a loose fitting tablet. Many times the elastic covers or presses buttons in the locations it is covering.
most people cut the elastic off and velcroed their tablets into the cases.
Horrable. Do not buy that junk
What about this one that uses clips? Do you think the clips will hold the transformer securely? and would it scratch it?
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220782110011
i got the one with the elastic bands as it seemed a safer bet than the clip version. Its a great fit and really snug with the TF in it thumbs up!
P.S: i took a risk and ordered it when it was still named as for the Gtablet. The dimensions were compatible though. And so it is. Phew

I got one of these, it's ok not great, for £7 delivered it's about right.
The back of the case(not the TF case!) warps slightly due to the pressure from the 4 corner holders.
The top left corner strap sometimes pushes the volume up button as it covers it, you can still use the volume up button though. I have slipped off the top left corner one due to this and it still seems to hold ok.
No way of using the stand in low profile mode (shallow angle so the tablet is near flat to desk)

It looks great and the size is perfect - compact and slim. How does it feel in hands - solid? Does it block the mic hole at the top?

Looking at the pics, it looks like the NT would snap into it at the four corners rather than any edges. The NT's mic is a small hole at the top of the device, offset from the center. I doubt this case would block it.
[Edit]
Sorry, I should check the reply more closely before posting. I was looking at the one from Best Buy.
This is the one I picked up. It's pretty nice, a couple of different angles to stand the NT up, and it surrounds the whole thing, so it's pretty secure.
edit: I'm not allowed to post links yet, but search on amazon for crazy on digital's folio case for the Nook Color
This may seem like a dumb question, but can you stand it up in portrait mode with this case?

ordered this before I even saw your post.
Got it, hate it. No way to really fold the cover back and use it in portrait mode. Cover doesn't close flush with the nook.
Really nice quality leather.
If you case closes flush with the nook then I might be wiling to get a replacement and see if this one is defective but I don't think the magnets are strong enough/the groves to hold it in portrait prevent it from closing flush.
Just got the Speck Fitfolio in black. It fits very well and does not make it feel bulky at all. They have also extended the "vegan leather" on the back over the hard shell making it look far nicer.
Ok I purchased this case. Like the feel of it and its not too bulky. BUT, whatever chemicle they used to coat the leather absorbed into the bezel of my nooks rubber paint coating and caused a brown spotted discoloring.... I tried to clean it with alcohol and other cleaning products but its absorbed in the coating ... im pretty pissed to be honest. I just orders a skinomi woodgrain skin to cover the damage up, and plan on taking pictures and contacting the case manufactor to have them buy me a new nook! WARNING TO ALL!
I purchased this case
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005MZ35NM/..._am_us?ie=UTF8
I've had it for about 3 weeks but haven't used it due to a very
strong chemical smell. The smell transferred to my hands after unpacking the case.
I've been waiting for the smell to go away before using it but after reading posts regarding damage the Nook finish I may never use it.
At the time I purchased my Nook I also picked up a B&N case that was discounted 30%. It's much better quality, I really like clips that hold it in place. Very quick and easy to pop the Nook in and out. The B&N case was approximately $10 higher cost but I feel it's higher quality case and worth the cost difference.
Anyone has a good belt clip style holster or leather case that fits the note with a slim TPU case on? I can't find one that will fit.

Bought this one for my new note. Really love it. Esp the clip, very very tight wont loosen up like my one I had for my Streak 5 was so loose it would wobble on my belt.
Also like how this has a 1" strap on the top with magnet snap.
Side note.. everyone talks about how big the note is, my streak 5 was larger with a smaller screen and heavier. But that could be because of the all metal frame which I do admit i miss.
Found a deal for 2 oem batteries and a wall charger. http://www.ebay.com/itm/16073975077...NX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_554wt_1127

I have an Barnes and Noble official case called the Tasume cover. It can act as a stand in both portrait and landscape.
The only thing is you'd have to take your NT out of the cover to access the SD card and the microphone.
get the one with a hand strap
I've got «CrazyOnDigital Stand Leather Case with Screen Protector» from amazon, had to make a little hole for the speaker for it to be louder but other than that pretty nice one for little money ($14.85 now)
I use an M-Edge Incline case that I picked up at Best Buy a while back. The feel is really nice and it has a few different positions that you can stand it in. You do have to remove the Nook from the case in order to access the Micro-SD slot.

I have one of those soft, baby blue ones, but I don't really take it too many places right now.

Nice. But a bit pricey for $ 45.00.

I've had the case for almost a year and it's been worth it.

This is the cover I have

Works well for me since I can use it as a stand in certain cases and in others like the case of flash video causes the video to turn the wrong way making the stand useless.
FWIW I bought this case for my NT, it's a very nice and inexpensive case.

I got something similar http://www.ebay.com.sg/itm/300722422070?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 for $10.88. It ships from Hong Kong but I got it within 1 week plus.
The grey is more like brown, and the build quality feels a little cheap, but for this price I'm really satisfied.
Resurrecting a very old thread here....
If I had ESP I would have bought two cases when I got my first Nook Tablet back in the day. What I have is a very sturdy, nice, plain black "leather" case (maybe an Industriell?). I love it. It's made for the NT and holds it securely.
I recently acquired another NT. It came with a very sturdy case (also made for the NT). Someone would probably pay really good money for it but I think it is incredibly ugly. I really don't need to see John Lennon peering out at me every time I pick up the tablet.
I can't seem to find much that is made for the Nook Tablet or Nook Color. B&N has all these pages of stuff that are nothing but dead links. Very little on ebay except for the folding or easel types. Anyone have a lead?
Edit: and the solution was fabric spray paint since this particular case was fabric covered. It took quite a few coats to obliterate Mr. Lennon, and the case was a bit tacky for awhile, but that eventually went away.
Just got an email back from them stating they are in fact making a case for the nexus 6! Yay!
I always thought those looked really cool. I'm afraid they might be kinda bulky on a phone this big, though.

Oh **** YES!
I always wanted one of these cases for my devices, but they never seemed to support anything past Galaxy/iPhone devices. Now I know what case I will be getting for sure!
No dust covers and silly Transformers reliefs on the back that will interfere with an Aidock (and even with putting a magnetic sticker there for the airdock to adhere).
Nope : I'll pass.

The airdock is a wireless charging dock (essentially, for cars) : you lay your phone on a micro suction foam (below which is the QI coil), and it adheres to it. If your phone case is a bit rugous, the foam will not work as well, but you can just use a smooth magnetic adhesive (supplied with the dock) which'll work fine....
... provided you can lay it flat on the rear face of your case. And with such shapes on Urban Armor Gears cases, it will be a problem...

Like the imagnet dock, only it charges it too? I have the imagnet right now and use the UAG case on my HTC m8 and it works just fine.

Yeah, but we don't know yet wether there'll be enough metal in the right place inside the Nexus 6, so to do without a magnetic sticker ; and said sticker won't do with the back of such a case as the Urban Armor Gear one.
The Airdock also has a suction foam which makes magnets redundant (or at least, adhere better, which is always good in the car), but it requires glossy and (rather) flat plastic at the back of the case, which is another problem with this one...
Well... we'll see what comes out as accessories. I now hope Otterbox indeed really is considering a case, as neither Trident nor Ballistic seem interested, and as Spigen won't do a case with dust covers. So a Commuter is among my last hopes, so I can buy the Nexus 6... If I can't have a somewhat rugged case (without going to the last extremities), I'll have to pass on this phone, even though I'd really like to get it.
Was always interested in UAG cases. Will probably cop one for times when I'm doing an activity that may require a heavier duty case for extra safety measures.

Have one for my GN2 and really like it. Would definitely be interested in one for the Nexus 6!

39.99? That's a lot for a case in my opinion is it worth it?
Here's the link again http://www.amazon.com/Urban-Armor-Gear-Motorola-Nexus/dp/B00OUC85MO
Thanks for linking it. I never had a UAG case before so I couldn't tell you. 40 bucks is quite steep for what amounts to a piece of plastic in my opinion. I'm thinking more of a flipcase or something with a kickstand since the phone is so large. The fact that the volume and power buttons are on the same side would suggest that they intend for it to be more of a media consumption device as well.

It is a bit pricey. I'm worried about the curvature of the back and those indentations. Almost wouldn't feel comfortable I'd imagine.
Seems like it might be awkward.

Hope they come in more colors. Never really liked the "crystal" version.

My Seidio CONVERT Case for the Nexus 4 was $50 when it was released and to this day I never had any damage happen to my phone (hell even the glass back has not been damaged at all if you can believe it!).
Fact is that when you are paying up a premium, you are paying for top notch protection. My Nexus 4 never was graced with the attention of Otterbox or UAG (hell I wish it was) but considering the attention and love the Nexus 6 is getting from Case Manufactures it is good luck for all of us on the options out there for us now!
I personally cannot wait for this case. I just hope they get it out there soon!
I'd like to see one in that olive green color they make.

My problem with the UAG for my S4 was that the high lip on the front, even with a tempered glass screen protector, interfered with swiping from the side gesture for opening the navigation drawer. The N6 is supposed to have a nice edge on the side, and I am afraid of ruining it.
For those of you wanting other colors: I just e-mailed their support and asked if they had any plans for different styles/colors. The response was a negative
Shame really, the Scout style looks really nice.
