QUOTE(domokun @ Jan 6 2013, 12:27 PM) I live in SG...I'd believe I've search every corner known. Result - Failed. Only Original Asus Nexus 7 casing but left with PINK or TURQUOISE. So I had to order from Amazon for my SPECK case.  How much is the original cover being sold there? And which shopping complex did you went to? I only checked at the shopping near Sentosa there and can't find any. Im using the original cover btw. To activate the sleep and wake function, I cut off my Gnex flip cover, took off the magnet and paste it on the cover.

It's sold at SGD 29.90..available mostly at Sim Lim Square & Fun an Digital Mall (aka our LowYat Plaza), other places won't carry them.

Tbf the original cover is the few covers that protect the Nexus 7 in every area possible. But the light grey one is abit prone to dirt. Saw the red one in Ebay but cannot get it here.

Saw the red one in Ebay but cannot get it here. The nicest looking case so far I've seen is the SPECK FITFOLIO @ USD29.99. I'm waiting for mine to arrive. I know spending RM will feel a lil' costly for the case. But this is premium stuff. Too bad SPIGEN don't have any case for Nexus

QUOTE(domokun @ Jan 6 2013, 11:53 AM) OIC..meaning my Note 2 is more natural ehh? Always thought Nexus 7's white more so-called " whiter" Amoled always oversaturated. No way it's natural Just look at the gamma curve for AMOLED, it's about 140% that of RGB standard. Most LCD just covers around 80% while iphone 5 goes near to 100% QUOTE(Jemi @ Jan 6 2013, 12:01 PM) If not doing the comparing with others still OK. I'm doing photography things so the color quite important. anyway anyone here using with cover magnet? Get ipad 3/4 then. Said to be the best

My Nexus 7 purchased from UK suffered a screen-crack after I retrieve my bag from a flight check-out; screen display fine but lost the capability to touch and use the tablet.
I understand warranty doesn't cover the physical damage but is there any place I can replace the screen for a reasonable fees?
Cheers

Don't think its the display being flimsy, it's the people who handle the luggage.

My nexus 7 suddenly rebooted itself today while playing a YouTube video. the video seems to stutter before it reboots. Not sure if this is a common problem or perhaps too many running programs in the background. Anybody else have this same reboot issue? Mine still on stock ROM 4.2.1 and unroot.

The dreaded thing finally happened. N7 battery was down to 10% & the unit suddenly dided. I ve plugged in the charger & have charged for an hour or so. Still no responce, the unit doesnt boot. Time to visit the service center? Should i try something before i take the unit to lowyat?

Still waiting to get a back case for it . Will be getting it in from Taobao. Cheap and good variety to choose from. Cant wait.
