Looking for more than just a sleeve to protect your Nexus 7 (2013)? You might want to consider the brand new official Nexus 7 case.
The flip-style hard case comes in a variety of colors, including gray/blue, gray/red, black and white/red. The case also functions as a kickstand with two different angles, so youre covered regardless of whether you are trying to type or are just watching your favorite movies and TV shows.
Now for the downside: Its $50 or rather $57.48 when you factor in taxes and Googles Saver (5 -10 day) shipping. Thats a fair amount of cash for just a case.
Is it worth the cost? Yes and no. If youd rather go with official products you know will fit to your device without worry, the Nexus 7 official case is certainly an attractive option that is considerably more useful than the Nexus 7s official $30 sleeve. For those that dont mind going the 3rd party route however, youll find plenty of cases that offer similar functionality for a whole lot less.
A quick stroll around Amazon turns up several cases for under $15, including the Poetic Slimline Case, MoKo folding cover case and the rooCase Dual-View Folio Case. Again, no guarantees that these cases will fit your device perfectly, though all three seem to be highly rated by Amazon customers.
For those that have your heart set on going the official route, you can pick up the case now, directly from Google Play. What do you think, is the case worth picking up or not?
