I have the official asus travel cover for my n7 but it's not very good quality and doesn't include functionality for the magnetic smart wake feature, I would have expected more for something that costs ?14 so don't buy it! I know there's better out there but I'm not sure what to recommend because all I have is the official travel cover.

I got one of these yesterday. It's a sleeve rather than a case but it's what i need. It's a bit wider than the Nexus 7 so i've stitched down one side to create a 'pocket' for my stylus. Feel free to ignore this but thought i'd suggest it as another option.

Also really interested in this. Like the Portenzo cases and have heard great things about them but they are really expensive, more so if you want them delivered to the UK.

I bought these when they were 5 bucks for the kindle paperwhite version, and 8 bucks for the nexus 7 version. They are both now 10 bucks, and their popularity has increased dramatically once the first 5 star reviews started to trickle in. I personally love the cases.

Hello,

I initially purchased the Asus case and while it did the job, it always felt a little flimsy to me and did not have a magnetic closure. I then purchased the Poetic SlimLine case and am much happier with that.

Are screen protectors worth it when you got a case that covers the screen?

In a word.. Yes

All of my devices, have screen protectors, even the Gorilla Glass ones, they cost pennies and can help in keeping the device looking like new, like my old N8, I got more for it selling it to CEX than recycling it, simply because they classed it as in A1 condition when it was 18 months old.

      Stop asking people that. It's a "No True Scotsman" argument in that you are attempting to discredit the opinions of a person by Attacking the Messenger. The reason that these are logical fallacies is the TRUTH is based on facts as supported by evidence. Nothing else. So, always debate the facts with evidence to reach the truth. Once you learn to do this, you'll be able to recognize when people are fearmongering and lying to you for their own selfish ends.

      It doesn't matter if you didn't directly hear it from person X or Y. Every one of your statements comes straight from the racist, skinhead, anti-immigrant, be afraid of everything, "they are all taking our jobs", etc. etc. mouthpieces. That's where Farag and Putin heard it from too...and used it against the UK. So, while you keep disavowing the people who publicly peddled that position, you keep proving over and over again that those lies influenced you into being tricked when the Brexit vote came around too. In fact, your final sentence makes it crystal clear that it was the racist/anti-immigrant lies you fell and voted for, since you stated that you didn't have an issue with the economic trade issues with the EU. Ahem. To be clear, all of these LIES are EONS old, mate. They are the same fearmongering lies peddled to the same ignorant, gullible cowards by the same charlatans, snake-oil salesmen, and would be demagogues who've been doing this since caveman Ugh lied about his slightly different neighbor in order to steal his land. And, finally, you answered your own previous question. The reason that the EU isn't clamoring to bring the UK back is that they have had enough of people who would rather shoot themselves in the foot than get over their "insecurity issues". It's the same reason the entire world is moving away from the USA as fast as it can...
