Even at the steep price of $29.99 plus tax and shipping, the official Google case for the Nexus 7 is still worth a look. The materials appear to be of relatively high quality, and the back pocket is large enough to hold a smartphone. Check out the video above for our full review and the giveaway below.

Awesome post I bought me some earbuds from skullcandy. I was literally about to go buy some tomorrow at wal mart. They have so many cases for cheap in the links you posted too bad I have an extended battery and they don't fit
Thanks. Picked up a ballistic knockoff boxwave case for 5 shipped. Ended up only costing 2 something cause I had discover credit? So if it's crappy its not a big loss.

Stock ICS on my S3
Thanks for the deals OP! I picked up the TPU case w/ kickstand, social case, and skullcandy earbuds. :good:
Just a heads up, Tech Armor will be selling screen protectors for the new Nexus 7 by the end of this week per their twitter:
https://twitter.com/Tech_Armor_LLC/status/362998824387620864
I'm a fan of Tech Armor - they're cheap, fit well, and come with a no cost lifetime replacement (all you have to do is email them, they check your order #, and they mail you out another set). Will be buying these as soon as they're available.
Update: Available for preorder, shipping August 12th:
HD: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E9QK7X6
Matte: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E9QK2MW
Thanks for the heads up! I've been wondering when they would be releasing this, I'm a pretty big fan too. I've gotten sets for an iPad, iPad mini, Nexus 4, and Nexus 7 2012, and they've all been fantastic. Great clarity, durability, and price. I prefer them over every other "wet" screen protector I've used too.
Updated OP with preorder links. I'll probably wait until they're actually for sale, hopefully they'll be prime eligible then like their others (will still be $8 but free 2 day shipping)
Thank you for the update OP. Pre-ordered mine this morning. I have Tech Armor for all my electronic devices. Great product. Great price. I have yet to open my Nexus 7 (2013) box. Waiting on my case and this screen saver to come in first. Yes yes...silly.

Considering how the official Google bumper quality is questionable and expensive at $35, I've been looking into knock offs. There were a couple on amazon that were around the same price, but they're unavailable for sale now for some reason. Shenit as a blue case that is a bumper clone, and a couple of members have said the power and volume buttons are more responsive than the official Google bumper.
I'm thinking I might buy this case and try it for myself as a test of quality. $17 isn't cheap, but it's better than $35.
I just bought one so I will post back with my findings. I went with the black. I agree, it was a little steep in price and I have about 6 cases already so I need it like I need a hole in the head, but come on... It says NEXUS on the back!
Yeah I have two on order as well. Who knows how long it will take but I'll try to remember to put some pics of the blue and gray ones

If anyone is interested in what I feel is the Ultimate Smartphone Drop Protection it's available for $9 with free Amazon Prime 2-day shipping. Some of the stock of them (like the silver and gold are pretty low, less than 5 and less than 20). It comes in Black and Pink as well. Not only does it provide the benefit above, but it also allows for easy to use one-handed and two-handed use, best usage and viewing angles, as well as the best in-hand experience with looking and feeling the beauty of your well designed smartphones. I highly recommend everyone check out my review and look into this product.

On Amazon, I also did a written review.
