I just received the Poetic Case and they have definitely made improvements over the last case that I owned from them (Nexus 7 2012 Model)
We are all familiar what Poetic Case's look like, not much different except for the Logo. The new logo is quite stylish.

Another great addition over the older model that I had is that they have magnets built into the front cover so you can fold it up and it latches together.
I absolutely love this case for it's minimal yet stylish design, Poetic has done it again. And yes, the cover does have the open to wake functionality. Also the magnets are strong enough that the cover won't flap around.

Sadly, I do not have a food scale and the package it came in was a generic plastic sleeve bag with no specs.

If you have a postal scale or any scale that weighs in grams, that would work too.
I bought and returned this case. Due to the mfg process it smelled disgusting, Beware of quality issues. I called the onlime store i bought it from and he checked his inventory and vverified that they allnhad this issue. it was horrific.

I bought 2 styles from the manufacture website and the Slimline arrived with that dead fish smell but I did not use it for about 3 days and now that smell is gone. The other one I got from them was the GraphGrip and I love that one more.
I have this exact case in FULL Leather
so the one I have looks EXACTLY the same however the only difference with mine is the entire case is leather, not plastic in the back, and it weighs 7.13grams. hope that helps. And i Love it as well, looks and feels great, not heavy at all, and definitely NO bad odors. lol

Purchased mine from amazon. No fish smell. Perfectly happy with all of my Poetic cases.

I bought the poetic slimline case also. After having the samsung case on my note 8 I didn't like the poetic case. It doesn't sit the tablet up well in landscape mode and it's also a bit bulky. Makes getting to the volume and power button a little bit of a pain too. So I bought a Samsung case for my tab pro. Much happier now
Sent from my SM-T325 using XDA Free mobile app
This case is great except that when you fold the cover back the sharp edge is a bit uncomfortable on your skin - I.e., its sharp. Also there is no stylus holder and a stylus comes in quite handy to keep the screen clean.

Hi all
I tried the Belking case (too thick) I tried the Samsung OEM (to thin) and now I have tried the Poetic 14 dollar Book style case (Just Right)
This is sturdy and I feel like the tablet is well protected without adding too much bulk. Its allso very easy to slide out and place in the Brodit car mount.

Nice looking. It covers the microphone doesn't it?
I bought this case too. Preordered it before it was actually manufactured. Heres my review. Love the case.
Poetic Ipad mini case
Will this case work on the 7.7?
Looks interesting.
http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-KeyBoo...354142281&sr=1-6&keywords=ipad+mini+keyboards
I don't know but for me, book-case isn't the case for Tab 7.7. I am using a hard plastic, super slim case to cover just the sides and the back, the screen protector does the job, well, for the screen. I don't know if it's just me but book-covers are for those heavy tablets (iPad3). They made this tablet so light and easily navigable. It's supposed to be held with 1-hand. I think if I am gonna put my Tab 7.7 in a book-case and put it on a table, I would always end up pushing my tablet back when trying to touch and press the screen. lol. And it would end up thicker and heavier too. I am using a book-case for my iPad3 btw, and I don't use the iPad3 ever since I got this beautiful tablet. This is what tablets are supposed to be. Handy, light and sexy. If they are gonna be as heavy as the iPad3 and be used on a table with that book-cover, I might as well use my laptop.
yeah that case is way to bulky, i am going to try a case made for an ipad mini, as the size is just slightly off. I will just try to find a way to secure it and mod the plastic on it to match up some with the power, vol, and headphone areas.
If you want a thin case I would highly recommend the SGP case. These are very thin and still provide nice protection. They are currently on sale at SGP. I will try to post pictures later.

As mentioned, here are some pictures of the SGP case. I believe it really allows you to keep the low profile of the tab. I also hav ethe Poetic case but find it too bulky. To me, the SGP is ideal. I liked it so much I actually bought two, black and the soft brown leather.
I came across this case and was wondering if anyone has tried it out or anything like it? It looks nice but I'm afraid that it will come apart too easily as it is a two part case, or it might be made of cheap material. Thanks for the advice.

Yeah those are good, I got one real cheap on Amazon and it is still holding up pretty well. I just saw this and got curious
i had a backflip, the plastic case really screwed up the paint on it, i got scared of buying "plastic snap on" cases for anything now. lol.

I decided not to get that case in the OP because of the hard plastic that might scratch the phone, but I ended up getting a two-piece case off Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0065SGLRW/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
It was only $2.89 so I had to try it out, I mainly got it because of the cutouts for the volume and power buttons.
Edit: Just in case someone was looking at buying this, it does cover up the top mic..
The pictures on Amazon show a different case which is very upsetting considering you can't even buy that one.
I got the Diztronic Matte Back Black Flexible TPU Case...
It costs almost $10 but It does the job perfectly and you get a screen protector free along with it...
But that's for the tip of the wrong picture on amazon. I do most of my shopping there and it is certainly a shame...
My new Otter Box - Commuter Series. I find it far better than Spigen case, the feeling holding it is awesome! Recommended, well protect and not over bulky.

It came with free screen protector but I never use it as I hate SP. Hehe.
I buy at Malaysia. I believe mine is genuine, If not I not sure what to said already.
The shop I went is listed under http://kwsdis.com/location.html and KWS is listed as Malaysia Authorised Distributor at Otter Box official site.

It's "brushed" plastic with side grips.
If you put it on a kitchen counter, and try to operate the phone and swipe the keyboard, does the phone spin? If you put it on your pant leg, does it slide off easy?
That thing is slippery as heck. I took mine back after trying it on in the car. Good lip on it though for screen protection. I also like the cut out for the S Pen, very easy to get to. But this isn't the case for me.
I also think it's very slippery. I'm going to return mine and keep using my incipio dualpro. The otterbox is fantastically tough but it's too slippery for me

I always put my phone at desk camera face up, so no slippery for me.
It is nice hold in hand than Spigen Slim Armor, but yes it is much slippery if you put at desk camera face down.

Thank you for sharing the pictures.
I have a more clear idea of how bulky the Commuter Case is.
I remember we did this for the S4 when it first came out and it gave me some great ideas about looking outside cheap Chinese junk rubber cases for a decent case.
This time around I got the Spigen Neo Hybrid ( see here )

This is the exact case that I have @ ashraf sharif. Though I have a zagg glass screen protector. Not the cheapest, but the 8 bux, I paid best buy to install it paid off immediately, as the first one didn't lay down correctly, so he replaced it right then and there.

This is the lightest bumper frame case available obviously only protects the corners and sides because it has no back. Its a great case for those that want the "naked" feel on the phone and still be protected from most drops...the material is a clear TPU so a side benefit is you can see if the S5 battery cover is properly sealed in case you plan on getting your phone wet.

These are normally around $14, and pretty sweet looking. For $5.98 and free shipping, you can't beat it. I've been patiently waiting for a price drop. Too bad the black leather is out of stock. I ordered the charcoal black and carbon fiber white.

I thought about getting that one, but really wanted the black leather. They're not even available at the caseology website. Btw, all the cases are back to full price now. But they will probably be back on sale eventually. Glad I waited until the sale. But I think I'm done for a while, as I have about 12 cases now.
