Lol, I have been reading through this thread and am perhaps more torn than before I started. I am trying to decide between 3 cases for a Nexus 10 and would appreciate any recommendations - especially from those few that have used the products for a few weeks - maybe some of the luster has worn off after a while on some?
Ok, here they are:
- Poetic Slimline: Amazon.com: Poetic SLIMLINE Portfolio Case for Google Nexus 10 Navy Blue (With Auto Sleep/Wake Function)(3 Year Warranty by Poetic): Computers & Accessories
- Bear Motion: Amazon.com: Bear Motion (TM) 100% Genuine Cowhide Case Cover with Stand for Google Nexus 10 inch tablet - MP - Brown (Support Auto Wake/Sleep Function): Computers & Accessories
- Poetic DuraBook: Amazon.com: Poetic Dura Book Leather Case for Google Nexus 10 Tablet Black (Support Auto Sleep/Wake Function)(3 Year Manufacturer Warranty From Poetic): Computers & Accessories
At this point any advice would be helpful. Thanx.
Just bought the poetic slimline. Was looking for a small no frills case with a smart cover, this seemed to fit the bill, and also seems pretty popular among the N10 community. Hopefully I'll get it by next week to try out.
The day after I received my N10, I ordered this case:
Amazon.com: FINTIE (Orange) Slim Fit Leather Folio Stand Case Cover Auto Sleep/Wake for Google Nexus 10 Inch Android Tablet- 8 Color Options: Computers & Accessories
Great selection of colors... durable, serves as a stand. Fits snugly, and best of all, you just close it to shut the thing off.

Amazon says this is a magnetic cover, where is the magnet located? By the pics it doesn't look like there is enough room?? and is there another on the back side to keep the flap open? Thats the biggest complaint about the cover I have now, i hate how there is not a magnet on the back side and the flap just flaps around
The one I had for the Nexus 7 didn't have a magnet on the back to keep it from flapping around. If I remember correctly it did have an elastic strap for that, but I could be wrong about that (prior to getting the Poetic case I had a Kindle Fire case, which sort of worked and it may have been the one with the elastic strap).For those of you who have this one Amazon.com: Poetic SLIMLINE Portfolio Case for Google Nexus 10 Navy Blue (With Auto Sleep/Wake Function)(3 Year Warranty by Poetic): Computers & Accessories

Shanman14: You may need to reorder. I ordered mine on Dec 10 and received it today. Very happy with it, but the wait was ridiculous.
Holiday season will high postal lost rate. WE will resend you another
one on Monday and we will email you the replacement one tracking # on
Monday. Sorry for the delay
I'd go for the slimline. I really don't like the way the others cover the bezel. Like others have said, the Slimline doesn't cover the speakers and doesn't add too much thickness. Don't know about the other two, but the quality of the slimline is nice.
