Review G tablet Folio cases for TF,Angle adjustment,fully fit.. - Eee Pad Transformer Accessories

Here it is the pics.. I just got my TF today..
(UPDATE) Tested all the cases for Gtablet. Most of them can fit the TF.But the camera hole and Function keys bottom the screen are blocked. Here it is the pics
They are not too loose,even a little tight.But it's not fully fit edge.
Because you know, TF edge is curved, while the G tablet edge is flat.

Thanks for sharing us where to buy it.

expensive in China

TF is expensive in China, I spend about $550...

Looks nice, is that leather? Motorola has similar case for their tablet... I don't know why asus came out with that rubberized pos.

Is this really the case for the Viewsonic gTablet "Clip Case" from the XDA user it2steve?
This one?
http://electroniccrap.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5_9&products_id=24
How is the fit? Looks good? Does the clips hold it ok? Is it stretched? Likely to break?
Does the cover close correctly? Can the cover be folded completely to the back?

Not yet..

It can not be fully fit.Can't hold it..Can't cover it.. My English is not very well But maybe the pics can speak for it..

The P3..
Here it is the P3 for TF

From your first post, it looks as if you managed to get the Clip case working? Did you remove the bottom clips?
Thanks for the pics, and your English is fine

I didn't remove the bottom clip.TF can be put into but not completely,So You can use it as a Stand. Can adjust the angle.But i think the FUSE is the better one..However the camera hole and bottom side need cut to fit it...

Silicone Case Suggestion?

I have one right now... but it's a cheap one from Ebay. When I first bought it, it fit real nice and tight but now over a month or two it's getting loose and slides around a bit.
Anyone have any suggestions? I'm looking for the following:
1. It doesn't expose the metal part of the camera on the back cover.
2. Fits snug on the phone indefinitely (is this possible?).
... and if possible one that isn't really sticky.
Thanks!
Silicon case!
I was bought one silicon case on HTC STORE http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=176956 and is great. Cost 20$.
hi, i have a clear one of these, think i would buy the grey next time. its also a cheap ebay item. its very snug, not as flexible (which makes removal a bit of an effort) and nowhere near as sticky as some silicon cases.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Soft-Silicone...h=item110357833639&_trksid=p4634.c0.m14.l1262
hope this helps
Yeah i bought one of those that bl1nky recommended. The only thing i can say is that the fit around the bezel edge is not as good as other 'softer' silicon covers.
In my case particularly, the right hand edge is badly formed and seems to pull away from the HD bezel.
In addition i find that locating and using the power switch to be troublesome and it's this that i find most annoying.
My personal quest for the perfect case continues....
Thanks for the suggestions... I'm also in the search of a perfect case. You wouldn't think it would be this hard!
I am using this from boxwave. The fit is nice and not sticky. I went with the clear one.

They look the same from what I can tell in the pictures... but you never know on Ebay it could be a cheaper knock-off of the original. I don't know because I haven't purchased the one from Ebay. I will be getting mine today or tomorrow from Boxwave and I'll take some pics of it and stuff and update here.
Is it the non-transparent one with small camera hole? (I'm in the boarding shcool where ebay is locked) If so, it's good, but rather thick, good for protection, but will make your HD thicker (around 16mm). If not, just remove this post.

Ok so I got the case and have been using it for two days now. It is pretty damn nice actually. It fits well, not too tight and not too loose either. It's not sticky like the cheap Ebay one I have so I can easily slide it in and out of my pocket. I got the smoke color. It's clear and shiny so it suits the HD well. I like being able to see the phone through the case as well.
can try this silicon case from Capdase
CW any pics mate ??
i got the silicon case from ebay and its not a tight fit.come off very easily. am now on the hunt for another case. there is a case for the iphone which is a plastic case but a rubberised finish.

The silver hard case with kickstand and the pink plaid hard case are available to purchase under accessories. Stores are less likely to have them (ours has never gotten any). The gel like cases are not yet available anywhere.

Can you please post some pictures of your gel case? I am very pleased t-mobile has finally started making these cases available.
I am sure with the case being gel that it is nice and thin.
Does your case protect the front of the phone? Is it 1(?) piece?

Better?
Yes that was written from the phone w=1 lol. are the pics in the first post pics of the case?
From the way that the case looks like in the pics above, I must say that it looks great. Does'nt seem like there is too big, if not any, of a gap between the top and bottom half of the phone.
Only problem I had with this case that I tried on in the store was that it's very difficult to slide the keyboard out fully because of the tabs. I've tried this with the gel case and the clear case. This sucks a lot because it's going to scratch the phone over a long period of time.

i like it a lot. the sides are hard but the rest is gel. There is a slight very slight gap between the 2 peices but it looks good. I like how they didnt cut holes for the camera volume and lock button yet they are stll easy to push.

I would have gotten the case but that was my major concern about the case. As of now I have it running naked with the belt clip from the T-Mobile store. I ordered the Zagg Invisible Shield and will just put it on and leave it at that.

Anybody receive "The Clip" yet?

I see Steve is sold out on white and still doesn't have black in-stock. I'm wondering if anybody has received theirs yet and can review it.
I currently have P3 and it's been great but it's a bit of a loose fit so the camera and sensor don't quite line up with the holes, and the case definitely has an impact on screen sensitivity around the edges.
I'm hoping the clip improves upon those areas.
Thanks!
MC
I think I'm going to buy a Clip as well. Torn between a Clip and the M1.
I got mine last Friday
LOVE it!!!!!!

The tilt angles work great. I find myself using the second setting the most. It seems the most natural when you're sitting in front of it.

Do you think you can post pictures of all the positions. It seems like the position shown would be stressful on your wrist if you are typing on the on board keyboard. I want to order the case but I am hesitant due to that one thing.

Just got mine from Steve. It's white but it is the best case I've come across for the gTab. Love the way you can position you gtab in multiple positions and how it securely holds my tablet. Definately going to order one in black as soon as they come in.
Got mine on Monday. Short story: it's great. Longer story: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12500437&postcount=4
Great reviews and I think I'm going to order this tomorrow if the black ones come in. Just one question. If I have a stand like this:
http://www.thoughtout.biz/products/Stabile.html
can the clip fold all the way back to fit on this? Kinda like a spiral notebook can take the cover and fold it all the way back so that the front and back touch.
Just curious. I got one of these stands for my girlfriend and her ipad, was wondering if I could use it too.
Thanks.

Mine is supposed to arrive today! Thanks for the reviews
I love the clip! i got the white one and I think the contrast is great.. I also ordered the M1 and love the black with white stitching.. if the stitching was a 2 tone type i would buy the black clip as well.. the positions work well and IF (big IF) you want you can open the side cover to expose the micro sd slot and the mini usb (at the right angle) but is makes me think the cover will break off while in the clip.
go for it you will like it..
Thx Steve
too bad the cover doesn't have a folding crease like the bottom half does. There is an ipad case almost like this (i own one and love it) and it allows you to folder the top flap back and make a small triangle out of it.

then i would be all over it!!!!

Sikai case

There is a Sikai case for the transformer that looks alot like the Asus branded case which is very thin (like original apple ipad case.) However this one folds in a few different ways that appear alot more like the new smart cover for the ipad2.
It is selling for 24$ with free shipping on ebay. Just ordered one can't wait to get it
any links or pictures?

Funny , coz there is original asus case with asus logo on the last photo ))
I'm not getting how the upright angle works. The folded portion looks like it sits so low; seems like it would tip back over pretty easy.

Hi, I have my sikai case since monday.
I only can speak good things about this, I recomend it.
Perfect fitting, nice material, only the hole for the camera isn't perfectly centered but it dosen't afect to the optics.
and of course with the case fitted it won't be able to dock at the keyboard.
Looks pretty nice actually. Definatley interested to see your review on this one, I might snag one if its decent quality.

Can you post some pictures or a review of this case please?
Tnx
I just got it today. It got a little bent in the process of getting to my home in the mail.
I'd say a nice decent case. Due to the bending, it seems a bit odd to look. But fit is perfect and snug. All functions and keys are accessible. Camera holes are visible with no blocking.
Charging Port
Are you able to charge the TF while using the Sikai as a stand?

Case for tablet and docking keyboard

Hey all,
I found this on amazon. Thought maybe some might be interested. It's a cheap alternative and I've already placed my order for it. 9.58 isn't alot to spend and that's all i figured I'd lose. I ordered the brown one but there's a black one too. Might be a cheaper alternative to the tuf-luv case since some were worried about the bulk. I'll update this once I receive it and give you some pics.
Since it won't allow me to url tags or give out the url, search for Navitech + Asus and you should see what I'm talking about.
Let me know what you think!
This looks JUST like the Elsse Premium Synthetic Leather Case (there's a thread about this elsewhere in this sub forum). They were having a discussion there about whether or not the case would work with the dock as well, and I guess the answer would be yes, if you unfasten the velcro?
Can anybody confirm?
Is this what you mean? Looks good if not a little thick when all combined.
Anxious to hear any reviews.
Yeah...that's what I was talking about...apparently they must have had a huge messup with the price because I got one yesterday for 4.99 + 4.49 shipping....they've sent it and it looks like it's coming from the UK...anyhow...the 4.99 are gone and they've got only the 19.99 left. I'll give a review once I get the case...even if you undo the velcro, you can still to a material store (joanne fabrics, etc.) and get a longer velcro strap to hold it together. Thanks!
Wouldn't the rooCASE Slim work the same way?
http://goo.gl/V0RMe
roocase does not do the samee thing at all; this has a case for the tablet, then also for the docking port and then they finally work together somehow.

Looks like someone gave it 1 star on the Amazon product page. According to the reviewer it does not accommodate a docked tablet too well.

Looks like the reviewer may have a legit point. If you look at the sideways pictures, you can tell the tablet is not docked. The tablet hangs over the edge of the dock by almost an inch. Anybody who has the tablet with the dock knows that when it is closed, there is almost no overhang. I know I won't be buying it.
With that said, if anyone knows of a better case. Even one that would store the dock and tablet separately, I'd like to know about it.
ilgadets,
If you're interested in a sleeve case, I recommend this one:
http://www.overstock.com/Luggage-Bags/Wenger-Swiss-Gear-Legacy-10.2-inch-Tablet-iPad-Netbook-Slimcase/5804731/product.html
It has two zippered pockets, handles, a removable shoulder strap, and pockets on the front and back,
and it fits the Transformer and keyboard dock (separately) perfectly.
The handles can be slipped into the pockets, but that adds "bumps" that I didn't like.
I wanted the thinnest possible case, so I cut off the the handles and the triangular clips for the shoulder strap.
I think this is one of the best solutions for carrying the tablet and keyboard separately.
Regards,
Eric
FWIW - I grabbed one from best buy for an HP Mini 10 and it works perfectly. Fits very snug with the dock, and i feel safe carrying the tab around in it. Also has a zip pouch for a cleaning cloth, HDMI adapter, headphones, and other small items.
Was about $25 iirc... so a little bit more than what you're looking at here.

I have the exact same one, mines black and kinda has a 3D cube kinda pattern on the front. Anyways, I'm an employee, so mine only set me back $7. BBY employee discount is changing though, so that won't be the case in the future.
Anyways, case fits great, holds tab or tab+keyboard excellently.

Are you guys taking about a case or a carrying bag? Unless I'm mistaken, I believe the OP is talking about a folio type case for both the tablet and dock - kind of like this Tuff-Luv combo case.
