3-Devicewear Ridge

Devicewear makes a number of cases for a variety of devices, all of them quality crafted folio designs that are flexible and can keep your tablet safe while simultaneously serving as a multi-angle stand when necessary. All of their cases are remarkably slim and light, and made from a soft-but-authentic-feeling polyurethane leather material (the company specifically markets its leather as animal-friendly, since no animal products are used in manufacturing it). They also sport cover magnets that auto-sleep and wake your Nexus when you close or open the case, and even though the leather actually isn't leather at all, it has a premium feel. The case backing is a firm plastic shell that your tablet snaps into securely, and the cover can be adjusted to keep the screen right where you want it. Those of you who nominated the Ridge noted that premium feel at an affordable price, multiple standing positions (up to six different angles!), and the fact that it works with a Qi wireless charger. The sheer fact that it's so easily adjustable and highly customizable makes it a strong contender. If you're interested in one, they're available direct from Devicewear for $40 for the new Nexus 7 and $50 for the original, or you can get a break at Amazon and grab one for $25 for the 2013 Nexus 7 and $15 for the original Nexus 7.
