Default Leather stand case for $5

LINK

Seems like a good case, and definitely a good case considering the price.

I didn't even realize that they had a coupon code for the free stylus.

quick review:
case is great, stylus is great, definitely worth $5 IMO

-pleather (i chose red) is nice and well stitched for the most part, a few cosmetic issues at the bottom (see the green markings in the image below), but beyond that good quality
- case clips are OK, not too strong or weak, so dont be too rough or it can fall out (i tried and couldn't get it to by shaking upside down)
- there's a stand mode with two settings, you need to unlatch the two case clips on the left side to use it (see photo without the two clips on the bottom)
- there's a strap (on the inside) so you can read in portrait
- inside is made of some weird cheap material...no different to other cases in this price range, but likely a dirt magnet
- case is snug, no space for other items except maybe a lens cleaner

- free stylus is great, includes a plug for the audio jack - metal clip is very hard (but at least it has one, unlike the amazon stylus), and it's 90% as accurate as the amazon basics stylus which is my benchmark

a case with stand, portrait mode, free stylus, all for $5 = recommended

I received a black one today and can agree, decent quality. I'm not sure if any Naugas were killed to make the case but they sure shed nice skins

The same company offers a $3.50 case (you put the tablet inside) vs. the cover (it wraps around the tablet) also. I believe it has the same free stylus offer but since I ordered both at once and the free stylus is limit 1 I'm not certain. Its wetsuit material, double zippered opening, zippered side pocket, lint free lining. Very nice for those looking this sort of thing.

another big +1 for this. The KF fits well, the stand functionality is great (2 angles are nice), nothing interferes and I couldnt be happier

I have basically the same case in a carbon fiber look. I think they are great for how cheap they are. There must be a Chinese import company blasting these out by the container, because there are several brands selling this same basic cover. I paid about 12 bucks for mine so this is a really good deal, and mine does not have the strap thing on the inside of the cover.

For those curious, the case is still $5 but the stylus offer is expired.
