Tired of all those All New HTC One leaks? Well, today @evleaks has something new for us — pictures of the new One covered by the official flip cover from HTC. The flip cover, however, is different from LG and Samsung’s Quick Window cases and comes with tiny holes in front of them, giving users a glimpse of the time, notifications and weather.

The flip cases would be available in multiple colors and also once again confirm that the new One will indeed come with dual cameras. It looks like HTC is trying to provide a feature similar to Moto X Active Display, but with an S-LCD display it might end up taking its toll on the battery life. It will be interesting to see what other functionality these new cases from HTC provides since no other OEM has ever provided anything similar.

@evleaks also confirmed that a Google Play edition of the new One would be released as well, probably at Google I/O. This almost makes it certain that the Sense variant of the new One will be getting a stock Google Play edition ROM from third party developers down the line as well.
