Reviews of Accessories

Hello, I started a blog a couple of weeks ago, there I review accessories for smart phones.
So far I've made reviews of SGP Linear Color, Case-Mate Signature Flip, Case-Mate Tough Case and more...
I hope you find the reviews useful, the cases I've reviewed is for my phone, a Samsung Galaxy S2,
but the same case is available for most other smart phones.
If you have questions, tips, suggestion etc. let me know, either here or in
the blog, D ReviewR

I've made a new page where I plan review phones, tablets and accessories.
Right now there is a review of Case-Mate Signature Flip Case.
Please read it, more reviews will follow
The site is new and I welcome suggestions for improvements...
I've written in Swedish on this site, and have added a translate button on the right.

I've made a new review, this time of the, Case-Mate Tough Case

Video Review: Case-Mate Barely There Matte Black

Hey fellas,
I got my hands on the Case-mate barely there recently and wanted to share my thoughts on it. It's a snap on the back case which is made for someone who wants to keep the device as slim as possible, so it won't offer much protection either. It features a matte coating which is comfortable to hold & feel. Ports and cutouts are properly aligned and for the most part, it is what you would expect from Case-Mate.
Check out the full review below:

cool case .. i have a cheap ebay one that does me well tho

Yeah there are alternatives out there (such as the Ringke Slim Lite) for much cheaper, but the case itself is well made - only too pricey.

Great review as always Ploone, love your channel!
I would like to make a request, when the SGP neo-hybrid comes out you should review it asap.
I really want to order that case would be great to know your opinion on it before ordering!

Video Review: Speck CandyShell Case

Hey fellas,
Finally got my hands on the Speck CandyShell case! A lot of you have been commenting and asking for this review, so here it is! The CandyShell is a one-piece, hybrid style case that offers a mix of hard plastic (the backing) with a rubberized silicone (the inner layer). Due to the way the case is made, it offers great protection without adding a lot of bulk. The case has a simple but eye-catching design that I personally dig. This case definitely delivers protection, style and design - there's a reason it is Speck's best selling case.
Check out the full review below, you won't be disappointed in this one:

Great review thanks

Cheers man, glad you enjoyed. Got some new cases in today so should have a few videos up soon!

Hey, thanks for the review. Just wanted to let you know that I've been looking at tons of case reviews the last few days as I await the arrival of my S3 in the mail, and I definitely think that you give the most detailed and comprehensive video reviews I've seen thus far. You just sold me on the Speck CandyShell as my first Galaxy S3 case. Thanks, and keep doing what you're doing. :good:

If you don't mind me asking, what screen protector would you recommend with this case?

Hi!
Not a problem man, thanks for the kind words!
On this video I was using the Tridea True Shield, which is a solid option, but I've been using the SGP Curved Crystal for the past few days and I'm liking this one a bit more. If you don't need full coverage screenshields, look into the SGP Ultra Nano Series.

quality review mate..keep them coming

Noreve Case Now Available

For those interested.
http://www.noreve.com/product_info.php?products_id=2613

Nice but...
Nice, but expensive!

Agreed. They're known for being pricey.

Great. Thanks for posting this.
I have had Noreve cases before....they are always very high quality leather.
I like the thiness.
Very tempting !
I just bought this one 4 days ago. It's a ROCK.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ROCK-tex...6?pt=AU_TabletAccessories&hash=item257507249a
Update:
Couldn't resist, I just bought it !
It's perfectly designed in my opinion. I don't think one will find a better case. Much better than Samsung's case.
Since I purchased several items before from Noreve, they gave me a special certificate and I got a $23.00 discount. It only cost me AUD $70.00.
I will mostly likely sell my ROCK case !

How do you like the Rock Case? Any good? What about the insides? Any chance it will scratch up the finish of the Note because the edges don't look very soft.
Also, does it hold on nice and tight? I noticed there is a strap on the back; how exactly do you get it to wrap around the front? Couldn't find any videos for it.
What color is yours? I'd be interested in picking it up if you can ship overseas.

Rock Case---Ebay US has it up on there site. I ordered from there last week- Shipped from China. I should have it in a few days and will post some comments and pix. I like the look of the Rock case.

Could you post a couple of photos when you get it?
I was actually planning on buying one for myself, but now that I've checked out the pictures on their website, I'm not that impressed. Their case for Galaxy Tab 2 seemed a bit more premium than this, in my view...

It hasn't arrived yet. Should be here any day now.
I believe the strap is made of some sort of elastic as a photo shows it being wrapped around the case on their ebay sites.
I got the grey coloured one. I'll report back about your concerns about the possibility of scratches on the device.

Yes, I'll post some pictures when it arrives. But the site says that it is not due until the 13th.
Didn't see the Tab one. But I haven't really seen anything better that's real leather and is designed with all the important design features that are really important to me.

The biggest thing going for the Noreve IMO, besides the fantastic quality is the all around protection it offers the device around the bezel area. Most of the other cases that look good seem to just cover the device at the corners.

I was waiting for the Samsung case but could not resist this case, it really does look awesome. I noticed on the site that they had two styles but I chose the one on the Op's link as I did not want one with a magnetic fastener.
The site advised that they manufacture/hand make it within 14 days. I ordered the dark brown one, they call it Châtaigne.
I really hope I won't be disappointed with this case.
Edit: link below shows both designs:

Congrats. I'm holding out for an even pricier number posted on the cases thread.

Mmm...let me guess, does the name of the case you want rhyme with "penis"

LOL it might, I honestly don't remember. Just remember seeing it and a price tag. I immediately fainted.

I just ordered the sable vintage version of the case linked in the OP's post. I was thinking I'd order the Zenu case, but as it's not yhet available, and I wasn't overly keen on the embossing all over it, I think this one will do the trick.

Which one is that?, the one I ordered is from the "ambition" selection, the second one after the black one.

It's the "exception" selection, second one along.
If you click on it and expand have a look at the opened page, there's some examples of each styles with review pages. I looked at the one for the Sable Vintage section by tabletpccorner.net (would post the link but I can't post links yet - too new...). The photos in this review "sold" me on the look.

I love the look / function of that case too, however it sucks its not real leather, for that price I would think it would be.

Nice choice, I was also looking at that one but went for the other one because it seems more durable although this one does have some serious class !

After looking at the current selection of Zenus cases, I'm back on the Noreve bandwagon. Good looking to a fault, and classic.
