Perfect case for a Google Nexus 7
This is the second one of these that I've bought for my Google Nexus 7 tablet... and the first one lasted 5 years, which is very nice.Pros: fits snugly, protecting all of the corners, with good protection across the back. The 'cutouts' are just right for all of the ports on the table, as well as the power and volume buttons. The case has a magnet in it to give you a power sleep function, and being able to fold the cover into a triangle to act as a stand when the tablet is horizontal is very nice.Cons: there are two magnets on the side of the case meant to hold the cover in place when it's closed, and the plastic might crack and loosen a magnet - easy enough to fix with super glue. The other con is that inside of the cover flap easily picks up dust and dirt, which means that'll end up on the screen of your tablet unless you're careful with your cleaning.Overall, this is a good tablet shell, textured so that it's easy to hold, plus it's light weight. Definitely recommended for this tablet.

Not as good as Poetic Case
I purchased this as a replacement for my Poetic case that I bought about 2 years ago. I decided to get this one instead of the poetic case for a few reasons:1) While removing the tablet from the Poetic case a year ago the case cracked near one of the magnets, causing it to fall out and forcing me to super-glue it back in2) The Poetic case was $5 more than the Moko case3) I prefer the dark Moko logo over the shiny Poetic logo on the front of the caseThis decision turned out to be a big mistake. Immediately upon opening the package I noticed the material on the inside of the flip cover was not as soft as the material on the Poetic case. Worse yet when I attempt to "roll up" the flip cover as a triangular stand it is hard to get in the right position where it holds together and it doesn't hold together well causing the tablet to fall backwards.If I had it to do over again I'd spend the extra $5 and get another Poetic case for the next 2 years.Edit 1/19/2016 - I updated my review to 1 star because shortly after this review I stopped using the unreliable Moko case all together and have continued using my old broken Poetic case.

Good cover for an old tablet.
Bought this for my son's Nexus 7 tablet. It fits snugly on the tablet and all of the cut outs for the volume and power buttons are correctly sized and placed. There's a magnet in the top of the frame and on the cover that hold the screen cover securely in place when desired. When in use, the cover can be folded back into a triangular stand to support the tablet at an angle for use on a table. It's simple to use and works well.The only issue is that, after several weeks of very heavy use some of the "leather" on the cover is pretty scuffed up. Other than that it's holding up well.

Great case for someone that wants minimal bulk/maximum features!
I've only had this for a couple of days, but so far it's everything I was hoping for out of a simple, inexpensive case. My focus was on keeping the entire package small, adding some level of protection, and taking advantage of the "smart" feature of enabling and disabling the display via the case. For these reasons, I found this to be an awesome choice.PROS-------------------------------1) Very slim on the tablet, it doesn't add much bulk at all.2) Texture added by the case makes the tablet easier to hold on to in any orientation3) The cutouts for the buttons actually make them easier to find without looking, and at the same time harder to push on accident.4) Magnetic closure snaps and holds very satisfyingly. I never feel like the case is going to fall open.5) "Smart" screen activation and sleep mode works perfectly every single time. Might be a small bonus for some people, but especially holding the tablet one-handed, this is a really fantastic feature on a cheap tablet. Many expensive tablets don't even include this, and this case makes it work perfectly for you.6) Using it as a stand works fine on a hard surface.7) So far the case feels really durable and well constructed. But I'll admit I've only had it a couple of days. If it falls apart on me in the near future, I'll update this review and probably remove a star.8) Tablet clipped in very easily, and yet the case holds on to it extremely well. I have no fear of the tablet sliding out of the case on accident, feels very secure.9) Does NOT interfere with wireless charging. I use a generic Qi charger mat, and it charges just fine with the case on.CONS-------------------------------1) The case folds in order to make the stand, and that was one of the main draws to getting a case (besides 'smart' screen activation), and while that works rather nicely, I fear that leaving it folded up like that or using it a lot like that will wear out the creases material. For the cost, I'll consider it fine as long as it lasts over 12 months, but mileage will vary on how much you use it like this.2) On a soft surface, like my pillowtop bed cover, the stand isn't very effective. THIS IS A VERY SMALL COMPLAINT, as it will be very rare I even want to set it up like that on a cushioned surface.3) The magnets that keep the case closed are uncovered on the edge. This was probably for making sure the magnets get a great grip to hold the case closed, and they definitely succeed in that, but by having nothing over those magnets, I fear the magnets will eventually wear out their housing and fall out, which is the most common complaint in these reviews. Time will tell, perhaps I'm not giving their engineering enough credit, but I'd be slightly happier if the magnets were covered, even if just by a fabric.OVERALL-------------------------------I highly recommend this case for your Nexus 7 (2013). The few cons I found were by looking specifically for criticism, and I happily see right past them while using it. The only remaining issue for me is longevity. Assume no news is good news, if I have any problems in that department I will update this review.

Very good
Had bought a similar item in the past which had magnets for the sleep mode cover on display. These had fallen out pretty soon afterwards so was pretty dismayed to see a similar style land item on my doorstep, me having not done my homework properly. However, so far, so good with this model. Everything else is fine. Good protection from an inexpensive buy. Smart, too, so gives new life to a now almost pre-historic Google Nexus 7 2013 FHD 2nd Gen tablet.

A great case (when shipped with prime)
Bought this case, in black, for the second generation Nexus 7 a couple of days ago - so far I've been impressed.-Appearance- the case appears very smart in black: it's understated, as the tablet was designed to be and hence compliments it well. The clips on the side and back aren't offensive to the eye at all and the case is very slim.-Fit- The tablet slots nicely into place with confidence inspiring tightness, but not so hard that it's difficult to remove. The cut out sections of the case are in the correct locations - the only caveat to this is of you have a headphone jack which isn't straight then it doesn't fit well.-functionality - folding the front does indeed create a relatively stable platform to rest the tablet onto and the magnet which facilitates this seems strong enough. The auto wake and sleep with the front seems to work most of the time and certainly doesn't fail enough to be annoying. Finally the magnets which hold it closed are strong enough that it doesn't fall open by itself.Overall I'm quite pleased with this case. It offers the screen protection against scratches etc that I was looking for. It isn't big/strong enough to protect from falls however, but because of this it can have a slimmer profile. I can't say much for longevity for now, but build quality seems to be good.At the moment the postage on this is clearly huge, but with prime this wasn't a factor in my purchase. Case recommended.

decent well constructed case
A decent well constructed case which leave all the buttons and lenses clearly accessible. Also has an embedded magnet to auto switch off when cover is closed. It has the added bonus of not affecting inductance charging, so don't have to remove the case for anything. Remains to be seen how well the hinges stand up to frequent use, but I think they'll last a good time. Would definitely buy again.

Great case for Nexus 7
Great price and doesn't feel cheap. Fits the Nexus perfectly and actually shuts it down when closed (unlike other cases I've tried). Feels like it will protect the Nexus well without making it too bulky and the finish stops it sliding around on smooth surfaces. Minor gripe is that the space for the headphone socket could do with being slightly wider as bigger headphone jacks don't sit perfectly flush, although they do still work fine.When folded so the device stands up it is quite secure and doesn't collapse down as some do. Wouldn't want to use the Nexus without this case (and for the price, why would you risk it!)

Oozes Quality
We bought this case to replace an older MoKo case that was amazing - only changing as grubby fingers made it really dirty! The new one is just as amazing although I was sad that the colours were limited - however, this is now a 6 year old tablet so demand isn't very high for cases. Brilliant quality. Would recommend.
