Time to look at cases for our infinity.

Search This thread
I bought this one for my Prime and, apart from one or two very minor annoyances, found it great. The main irritation was it was quite difficult to press the power button to wake up the screen. I am hoping they will ring one out for the Infinity and maybe the change to the power button on the Infinity will make that easier to use.

Can it easily be used without the dock? I have a feeling I won't always want to carry it around...

Yes without the dock its a normal Tablet, i like the dock when i type a lot, or for the extra power.
Further you need the dock when you would like to sync to youre home pc.
I sync a lot between my MS Outlook and contacts. /i don't know if you can sync wireless...

Sorry, I was referring to the case. Entirely my fault, I should have specified that :eek:

You can remove the case in less then 1 second..
you can see it in the first picture, you just slide it in or out.
Thats all..

I just ordered this one from Amazon. Less than $20, genuine leather, and it comes with a stylus.

If you ask me I feel that these types of sleeves cover what's nicest to touch in the tablet - its front panel.
Stylus is nice, however ;) I had some good experience using a stylus while taking notes or even browsing on the Infinity. But after installing SwiftKey typing is so insanely faster when I actually use my fingers for it - in a sloppy way too :>

I'm looking for a silicone case as well. Don't like the leather cases which look like the Infinity was made in the early fifties.

Only hoping that the silicone case will support docking gaps as well since I don't want to remove the case when I use my dock... fingers crossed that silicone cases come fast ;)

    ASUS Transformer Infinity TF700 TF700T Rotating Cover Leather Case Skin Review

    It's here!!!

    n7ENb.jpg


    Overall I am very happy with it. It's a decent shell that cradles the unit with a "leather" that wraps around that. I don't know how
    genuine any of these materials are but they seem fine.

    The ring in the middle seems to be where all the magic happens. It spins very easily.
    In response to rndmnss's concern over the ring scratching the back of the infinity I spun my
    infinity around in this thing like a propeller for a bit and after taking it out I couldn't see any
    scratches, BUT the way the back of the infinity is polished (those circular patterns) I'm not sure
    I would've been able to tell if it was scratching it. I to a picture with a playing card against the ring
    to show just how close it really is. If I was really concerned about it scratching I would file just a
    little off of the ring. There is enough there it shouldn't mess with functionality to lose a little.
    The only problem i had was when using the case as a stand once it sat a little crooked after
    looking around i seen that the back hadn't rotated completely. It was an easy adjustment and
    hasn't happened since.

    I wasn't sure about the edges at first. They look like they were melted to the right size but they
    seem to grab the four corners just fine.

    The cutouts are good everywhere for me. Volume and Power buttons seemed weird at first but
    thats just because i was so use to them with no case. Camera also seems pretty protected.

    There are only two positional grooves in the microfiber instead of three on most. Another one or two
    would have been nice for versatility but these work just fine in both portrait and landscape orientations.



    The thickness of it also works well. Feels slim yet thick enough that there is plenty to hold on to.

    The case fits tight enough that there is NO room inside i would feel comfortable squeezing a stylus into
    it but there is plenty of room to slide the clip on the stylus in the edge. I bend the clip so it would fit
    more to my liking (not to hard or soft).

    Spinning it 180 degrees and closing works great for charging. Without a dock to test with I'm not sure
    if there is enough room to plug it into one when in this position.

    X0FXK.jpg


    Overall I really love it (especially for $15). Once I get a keyboard dock I will need to look at some other
    options but this would still be great for when not using the dock and it comes in and out of the case easy
    enough you could swap between this another case without any trouble.

    This is the listing I used
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/160888793528?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
    Bought it on 10/04 and it arrived on 10/12

    Hope this helps.

    I like that the part is well covered, for me its the same typing with or without the case.

    You might have to do some modifying or something with this one. Looking at the reviews, it is too small for the Infinity. It was originally a Prime case and they, like many other accessory sellers, just tagged the Infinity name to it.

    People should be buying cases that are made exactly for the Infinity TF700 as Alithea is saying. We have been waiting patiently at caseen for our cases for the TF700 to arrive [ *shameless* Arriving this week, now taking pre-orders btw :) ]

    We made a video explaining the differences of the TF300, TF700, TF201 in clear detail [and why you can't use TF201/TF300 cases on TF700 unless modifications are made in design]. Posted below:


    Hope this helps anyone with their search! Our new case has a unique elegant strap that covers the charger port when not in use. Take a look here: http://www.caseen.com/Transformer-Pad-Infinity-TF700_c_49.html

    I'm using the TranSleeve designed for the Prime (TF201), it fits well and is actually pretty cool. You have a few "standing" options (movies / typing) etc.
    There is TranSleeve Dual coming, which is supposed to cover the Infinity with or without the dock, but it's hard to tell when it's going to be available in Europe.

    I got the TranSleeve Dual while I thought I was getting the regular TranSleeve. The Dual one is pretty much useless without a dock.

    Sure, you can prop the thing up similar to the regular sleeve, but it feels bulky, and since the tablet is only held in place in the sleeve by silicone stripes (or whatever they are) at the sides, it tends to just slide out of the sleeve. The actual propping up also feels bulky since it's supposed to fit the dock as well and wrap around both when you close them together. Suffice to say, I'm returning it since it's useless to me without the dock.
