Hello Roman,

 

I have experience with these:

It is made in Germany and very good build quality. The HelloPad even with its price is great frame. But you are right, those are for ipads and still not cheap.

 

But what I realised the market is extremely bad with those frames, so that is why they can be pricey. You can not get wall frame under 400€ which is as well charging the tablet.

 

But, to make you a little bit happy - there is one frame, which would be great - it is made for Nexus7 (thats perfext), it is charging it, looks great. But it has two down sides - the company is really really hard to make deal with (or at least it was back when I tried) and, well, price

It would be great if the the pricing is lower, but for that money I would actually prefer Inno with iPad.

 

And how I did it - when I was buying doors to my apartament (I rebuilded the whole flat) I bought extra pieco of door frame. It was extra cheap, like 10€. I gave it to the cooper with the tablet and he just cut it in 45 degrees and sticked it together. I have prepared the box in the wall for it where I will put the charger. Simple and super cheap solution, but it is extremelly DIY

Another possibility would be not to use a frame and just stick to the wall with something like velcro

I have done this with three of my tablets and it creates nice clean look and if easy to swap out tablets

 

My biggest issue with the wall enclosures is

1) that they are expensive

2) they require cutting into the wall

3) they can be device specific which means in a few years time you may have an issue 

 

I have used Hedgie for the velcro circles and they are more than adequate to hold a tablet.

They can be slow to deliver but might be worth consideration

 

I use a POE injector and a 5v adapter to power 2 or my tablets my tablets so all I need is a cat cable behind the tablet

 

I can post some pics of my setup if people are interested
