ASUS announces colorful Google Nexus 7 covers

ASUS took to Twitter on Friday to let the world know that they’ve “got things covered” for the upcoming Nexus 7 tablet. As seen above, their announcement showed a wide variety of colorful cases or covers including black, teal, pink, light grey, orange, and blue. This is a welcomed addition as the official Play Store cover for the Nexus 7 only comes in dark grey.
The official covers from the Google Play Store run $19.99 USD and allow simultaneous charging and headphone port access while keeping your tablet safe.  The official covers are also pretty lightweight coming in at 4.oz. The covers attach to the rear of the tablet and have a swinging front cover that folds behind when not in use.

 

The official Play Store versions also have extra large ‘nexus’ branding on the rear as well as a small ASUS logo on the bottom. There’s no word if the ASUS variants will sport the same logos on the back. We aren’t aware of any pricing details or when these guys will be available for purchase. We suspect they will be similarly priced and offer similar functionality for the ASUS versions.  One things for sure, the sooner the better as the covers from the Google Play Store are currently sold out. We’ll let you know as soon as we hear from ASUS.
