IMHO, I would go with MicroShell Folio. It is slimmer and looks more understated than cheesy Carbon-fiber look of CEO.

I can get them both of amazon for £20 and 5 minutes from covent gardens I get them for £30 each. Any huge cons for the CEO? I'll be trying both of them after buying anyways cos the guys didn't have any test unit in the premium reseller
 
I just got the CEO hybrid in the mail today and it lives up to expectations. Fits like a glove, looks great and the adjustability is perfect for me. While it adds some weight I find that it just feels good. Only when trying to one hand it do i notice.

Some say CEO's grooves (for stand function) are too shallow and CEO got a bit more bulk than Microshell. Can anyone confirm about the grooves?

i think those comments were about the toblino. the CEO's grooves are quite deep and hold the tablet securely in position.
 
Update. Had a little snag with the case but it was mostly my fault. I tried to bend one tab back a bit to loosen it up and it broke. The plastic layer is hard and will not flex. Lol.

That being said I exchanged it for another one through Amazon and the new one is even better. Tabs fit perfect. And holds everything great. There is just one difference though. The new one I got has a small black elastic sewn in towards the edge opposite of the hand strap. Does anyone else have this? The website doesn't even show it.
