Nexus 7 (2013) Official Case / Flip Cover

2013-10-23
and your authority what is going on my name is kevin AKA vet tech ninja and today i'm doing a quick look at the official and newly released Nexus 7 folio case the Nexus 7 was manufactured by soos and was released in July of 2013 since then there has been an onslaught of accessories coming from third-party manufacturers during this time Google has been laxed when it comes to pushing on official accessories Google's official folio case was released in October of 2013 and how does it hold up well here's a quick look there are four options for Google's folio case the option that I have is gray in blue at first appearance this case is stunning the two-tone option makes the case appearance pop the material is and it looks like Jean fabric the stitching has a subtle design element and gives it a somewhat premium feel the inner portion of the case feels like a mixture between suede and rubber I'm not really sure what it is but it works the edges on the case have just enough lip to cover the edge on the tablet and the holes are cut with precision the threads in the stitching are thick and well placed when the device is in the case it feels well secure all the buttons and ports are fully exposed and provides a layer of protection the flap on the case has a ridge for it to fold under so you can prop up the tablet and this allows for a fixed viewing angle but you are able to flip the case over and view it in a more traditional 45-degree angle although the latter does not have the same amount of stability and at first glance this case is a true winner but there are a few things that are missing that could be a true game killer the first thing this case does not have a magnet to turn the screen on and off the second issue this case does not last on anything so if the case drops the flap may come open and thus leaving no protection for my device thirdly not having true adjustable angles and this makes it not as universal as the cheaper cases for the tablet coming up soon on Android authority we will compare the top Nexus cases in a battle and we will let you know which case comes out on top and once again guys if you like what we do here go ahead and hit the like button right below and if you're not subscribed for some odd reason go ahead and subscribe to our channel for more great content hi I'm Kevin aka the tech ninja you can find me on youtube and on google+ and we are Android Authority your source for all things Android peace
