[Review] Reiko Premium Hybrid Case

Hey guys,
[Youtube]REIKO HYBRID CASE REVIEW FOR T989
Here is my first review among many coming for the phone. This one is about the Reiko Premium Hybrid Case.
I purchased this off ebay a few days ago and decided to do a quick review. I will do another in a few weeks to see how it lasts till then. So far its a nice sturdy and perfect fitting case. The only problem is the clips that hold the first layer together do not seem too strong. I would recommend to not take your case apart if you dont have to.
Pros:
-Tight Fit
-Good Protection
-Price
Cons:
-First Layer clips do not seem super sturdy.​
TO BUY: Reiko Case Ebay Link
If you notice anything I should change or features you would rather have me talk about please let me know.

Legit review ! Thanks for the shout out
I also stand by this case, I usually like to buy branded cases but this one is looking and feeling very solid

Sweet, I was waiting for your review. Just kind of wish it had a belt clip.

I ordered mine few days ago, should be here tomorrow. Looked like a solid case

I just purchased the infuse hc case by ballistic a day ago. When that comes in ill see how much it might need to be modified in order to be used effectively. In the mean time I will keep bugging ballistic to make us their hc case.

Something i dont like about it so fR is the headphone jack space will only allow straight headphones like oem samsung or apple headphones

If you wanted to, you could cut down on that back portion of the plastic to make it allow your style of headphones.

I picked up one of these myself. Granted, I've only had it for two days, but so far I really like this case. It makes the phone quite big, bug for me that's perfect, I have big hands. For the price, you really can't beat it.

Motorola Xoom Cases

Does anyone know of any good website where I can purchase a Motorola Xoom case that will protect my tablet?

Really happy with my otterbox

I picked up the Acase slim leather case folio on newegg. It's fake leather but it still looks nice. On sale for only $20 and had free shipping. Covers the entire back and the corners. The front cover folds back to prop up the XOOM. My only complaint was that it covers the charging port when completely closed.

I ordered a ZooGue case genius along with one of their free stylus. I'm still waiting on the case but it should be here in another day or two. I hear it is *the* best case for the Xoom, but that's a matter of opinion I intend on confirming once I get mine

Otterbox is a good way to go. Also there are a number of good case at the site below.

I got a nice generic one from target yesterday and since they stopped selling the Xoom all the accessories are clearance now.

I'm actually happy with the faux leather one from Motorola

Long time lurker - first post.
I picked up a great case for my Xoom from Zenus Cases USA on their website. For me it's the perfect low-profile case for the Zoom. Nice leather, great fit, and has a fold back feature to prop the Xoom up. A bit pricey yes, but now over 50% off at $39 plus shipping (& tax for Cali).

Zoogue case genius is great. It's a bit thick, but it's very capable, fits like a glove, and has all the right holes in all the right places. My wife has a Motorola case that fits very poorly and blocks a lot of spots that need to be open (i.e. camera lens) so maybe see how well a motorola case fits before buying one if that's the direction you go.

Throw my vote for an otterbox. Tablet has fallen from high heights and nothing broken.

I had the otterbox case, but found it to be way too heavy for daily usage. It made my Xoom almost 5lbs. I switched to this case (http://www.amazon.com/Acase-Leather...SLB6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1338301487&sr=8-3 ) and absolutely love it.

Check out this case:

It comes with a free bluetooth keyboard, just bought it from Amazon, i'll report how good it is.

The portfolio case must be one of the worst cases ever. The left side is loose and doesn't snap on anymore. Good that I got it for free otherwise I would have been pissed of. I really don't recommend it

another vote for otterbox. use mine every day for work, carrying it in and out of the car and around various properties. yes its heavier but well protected; a reasonable trade off I think.

my otterbox fits perfectly in the xoom HD speaker dock too.

Body Glove "Defender-like" case!!!

So I'm browsing through the electronics section at Wal-Mart looking for a wireless mouse and I happen to stumble upon a new case for our phone. At first I'm thinking, "Oh, so now we have an Otterbox Defender!" Then I look at the box and it's a Body Glove!
I looked online for this case, but cannot even find it on the Body Glove website. I took a few pictures of it. It looks pretty good. It's a little bulky, but not too much. Very sturdy. The case is three parts - two for the inner hard plastic and one for the outer rubber-like shell. It's much easier to install than the Otterbox cases, but really feels just as protective - for less as well (paid less than $40). I said "Defender-like", so yes it comes with a holster - and it's almost identical to the Defender holsters.
Have any of you guys seen this case in any local stores? It feels like a pretty good one.

I haven't seen one in stores yet...because i have not been looking for one. I will see if i can find it...

What's the product number and can you post pictures of box it came in

OK, here are photos of the case this thread is talking about. Not much info on the case itself, and I threw the box away pretty quickly.
I took pictures of the box in the store. Its like $38. They show up fine in my gallery, so not sure why tapatalk is turning them sideways.

Apparently this is very new. Military tested specs, and it feels and looks much better than the Otterbox. I'm using a Thunderbolt for work with the Otterbox Defender. They look similar from a distance, but the look and feel in your hands is not even close. They also had one for the GS3. After several days of use, this has to be the best looking, best feeling, sleekest (relatively speaking, of course) heavy duty shock resistant case I've owned (and I've owned quite a few over the years).

Got this today and just luving it. Had the Body Glove Diamond white case before and it was a good quality but the Tough Suit case is perfect. Not too thick, built like a tank, this is the new batmobile from Christian Bale's Batman Trilogy if the other thin and slick cases are the stealthy slick batmobiles from the past xD

How are the buttons? Are they nice and tactile or stiff and mushy? That's what's bugging me about the D30 Impact case. The buttons are way too stiff and mushy (and before someone says I should hit the gym, I'm no chump. I can press them just fine, it's just annoying).

Just ordered one of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-OEM-Whi...727&pid=100015&prg=1006&rk=1&sd=290717667572& I think I'll review it once I get it.

I'm using this case as well and it fits perfectly and adds the exact amount of weight and size to it. Only thing was I got ripped off haha I think I paid 20 something for it and saw it on amazon for less than half of that. But I needed a case asap.

My co-worker has one of these on his black T989, he's happy with it, however I don't believe he's ever really dropped it so no drop-test experience with it. Oh, and those cases were also being sold at the T-Mobile store, for $29.95 label, no discount for clearing stock.

they look pretty beefy compared to mine and when i dropped mine it was fine the only thing that looks off in the pictures is that it doesnt look completely snug.

Got my Body Glove Diamond case a week ago and reviewed it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2004609

I also bought the black body glove case at Walmart and after 24 hours I'm loving it. The only gripe I had was the built in screen protector. I have zagg so I took a razor knife and cut it out. Couldn't ask for a better case.

I want one of these cases, but I can't find it anywhere.

Love my seidio active case and holster. Better than my old phones otterbox!
Just saying!

Looking for a high quality arm band.

Any suggestions? Saw Belkin made one and didn't like the colors.
Don't mind if it's from China. Just want something that's decent. Didn't see many options.

there was a thread about this earlier.
I personally use the TuneBelt #AB85 (for phones w/ bigger cases like otterbox and such).
I tried the armpocket one that you get from bestbuy but it's super bulky, and expensive (39.99) and with a case on it, you get almost 3/4 inch of space from the screen to the plastic cover.

I'm gonna get a waistband and bluetooth headphones. Less bulk on my arm and wires on my neck.

I'm a gym freak and work out about 3 hours every weekday. Having gone through countless armbands I can confidently state that the NXE armbands are the best. They feel very silky without the bounce and most importantly, they look awesome on your arms. It comes on a two pick with white and black.
One drawback may the fit with the S3 as it is such a big phone. But if you have bluetooth headphones, it works great.
Reviews on Amazon seem to agree with my assessment.

I didn't quite understand. Does the S3 fit or not in the sleeve? And, I want to be using proper earphones not the bluetooth. Is this good for me or what?

what about the arm band that yurbuds.com make?

If it's proper earphones, then no. It's fits really snug but that's not the problem. It's that the earphone jack is covered by the closing lid.

I just got the arkon XL and I love it. Works very well fits the phone perfectly with either a small TPU case or none.

VSTN® Nexus 7 case Review [Pics inside]

So i got this case today from amazon. Its very similar to the moko and poetic slimline case. When I got this case it cost $5.99 but it seems the priced raised today by a dollar or so. Overall its a pretty nice case with no complaints so far. Only thing is when I try to bend the case into a stand to watch videos, it does NOT stay it place. Maybe after a while it will but for now its not working so well. I will compare to the Poetic slimline once I get that one in the mail.

Holy crap, this case looks identical to my Moko Case:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...eASIN=B00CKA1IYU&linkCode=as2&tag=alohever-20
Except the silver thing on the lid says "Moko" LOL.

I call shenanigans on this one. They could have changed it up a little to make it different from the Moko.

I think your right. Looking at my case and looking at the moko case pictures on amazon and others have posted, it looks EXACTLY IDENTICAL to my case. Only difference is the MOKO logo on the silver metal, since mines is clear.

None of this is surprising.
Most just order in quantity from China and get them imprinted or branded with their own.

I received the case yesterday as well and have the same issue getting it to stand with the cover folded back. I removed the metal clasp on the front just to be safe from possible scratching. The auto wake feature still seems to work even without the metal claps I noticed. Overall quality feels ok for what I paid. Will be ok for a temp case until something better comes

These cases are cool but I've had problems with them cracking and breaking apart in the past. As an aside, that's a really funky old CRT TV man. Reminds me of college 12 years ago

I just received the same case. Had the same issue. To make it stand properly, the magnet needs to connect with the other magnet. It will make a triangle. At first I was just rolling it back, but that wouldn't work. Roll it till you feel the magnets connect, and it will stand.
