[REVIEW] Cruzer Lite Argyle TPU Cases

Recently picked up two different Cruzer Lite Argyle Pattern TPU cases...here's what I think:
This applies to both the Clear Argyle & Smoke Argyle Cases.
Please note, I'm NOT affiliated with the maker of these cases...just LOVE a good TPU Case!
1. It fits perfectly- nice and snug. Cutouts are just right. Easy to put on / take off. No "give" doesn't feel like it'll get loose on ya.
2. The volume buttons covered with two overlays, defining the buttons nicely. A little stiff at first, but seems to be softening a little over a few days.
3. Not overly slick. Easy to put in your pocket / remove. Seems to have enough friction to prevent dropping. Some of these TPU cases are like holding a wet fish, while your hands are covered in baby oil. This one's just fine.
4. Lightweight - doesn't add any real bulk...most TPU cases don't. Having such a slim, lightweight phone is something to show off...this doesn't detract from that.
5. Great packaging - most of these type of TPU cases just come shipped to you in a plastic baggie. This had said plastic baggie, with another layer of protection inside that...plus a cardboard cutout. (it's the little things that impress)
6. I love that the SGSII logo can be seen through the argyle pattern. This and the darker of the two cases allow for this. I like it!
7. The argyle pattern itself is sharp...I feel it adds to the classy image of this phone.
I'll say in summation, that I've had an overall pleasant experience with this TPU case...and the Owner that sent it to me. Seems like decent Customer Service in my interactions. Of course, in all honesty a TPU case doesn't offer as much protection as an OtterBox...but overall it serves it's purpose!

I like this case too. I posted a few pictures in another thread.
I didn't like how the volume rocker cover felt so I ended up using the cardboard mod that other people were using with the other TPU cases. I might consider removing that mod because I'm afraid it might damage the buttons in the long run.

I really like these as well. Looks like the smoke argyles are sold out at amazon and I cant find them on ebay. anyone know where these are in stock right now?

They will be stock in about a week. I will have nine colors total.

Use coupon code "fommycall10" and get a dollar off. Got mine for $13

I picked up the smoke and clear.
I love the cases, but the volume buttons are really tough. Def. need to do the piece of thick paper hack to them

received clear argyle case thanks bandage! Will post pics up soon.

This case is back in stock plus 7 other colors

I just got a clear one and a blue one from eBay. 4.99 each and free shipping. There were on my phone in 2 days. My volume buttons are easy to click. Somewhat easier than no case. It gives it more of a clicky feel. ( if that's a word?)

What color did you get?

Ordered the clear argyle case, just arrived today. The case fits like a glove, the only thing is that the argyle design is scratched and faded around the corners. Maybe I'm just being finicky. But I can't really argue with the price. Leaps and bounds better than the silicon case I had, oh and it's lighter too.

The way the cases are molded sometimes small defects can be found on the corners. I am glad to hear you like the case.

Other than those minor problems, I love this case. The case seems good enough to give me peace of mind while handling my phone.

Zenus Masstige Block Folio Case

Great Case I just got last week. Not too bulky, lightweight and looks great. Talking with the flip closed feels natural and doesn't distort sound. It feels soft to the touch and it has a great build quality. You can tell they took their time making this. The stand is also great because you can adjust you angle easily! I recommend this case!
http://www.maker4u.com/zenus-galaxy-note-case-masstige-block-folio-series.html
I would put pictures up but the website does a better job of showing the detail view.

Agreed, a very nice case.
As I found out yesterday, it's also very sturdy and protects the phone well... I was taking the Note out of my jacket pocket and it slipped out of my hand and dropped to the rough cobblestone street. I was dreading the sound of broken glass, but all that happened was a slight scrape on one of the corners of the case/phone.
It hit the ground on one of the corners, and nothing happened to the glass, even though it bounced pretty hard.
Very impressed.

I been using this case for a few weeks now and i'm very happy with overal quality and design. I purchased it to use as stand while watching videos but it also came out very protective as well. I add some pictures taken by me to guide people who are interested in this case

I also purchased this case so I could have it once I get an At&t Note. I ordered brown and the build quality looks amazing! It will definitely protect the screen. Now I just need to get that white Note to put in there.

Those pics above are good but you forgot a critical part of the case...
Its also a stand! And will be very useful.

I think brown is best choice to go with white Note. Actually i took those pics with my Note itself so I couldn't figure out to take pictures of the case with Note loaded.

Cool! I am getting a White At&t Note and figured it would look real nice with the brown. That black you have is really clean though.
Does it work well and is it stable enough at multiple angles when you use it as a stand to watch videos/movies?

I also came across this case. Though the Tridea diary case looks better than this but it doesnt have the cutout for talking on the phone with flip closed and also no kick stand functionality. So this case seems to be the best bet.
Existing owners can you tell me for how much u bought this case. Currently its on ebay for $27.88. Should I buy it compared to the tridea case and which color?
MOST IMPORTANT: Also does this Zenus case make the camera sink in further than the free flip case which comes with the phone?

Guyz please reply ?????????????

I bought the case off ebay for around 28 dollars. Total it was 35 and got here in a week. The camera hole is sunk in so laying it on its back wont allow things to come in contact with camera, its deep enough. I say go with this case!

Hi. Does the elastic band secure the case in a closed position? Also is it durable enough?

yes, the rubber band will hold the case closed very well.
...But how long it will last?
I just recieved the case, today.
I most say, it doesn't look like it will last long or forever.
But still... I think it is a great product.
I'll like the case even with a broken rubber band....

Here's my two cents..
-I recieved this case roughly a week ago and alreaddy the elastic band keeping it together is showing the white elastic inside (got the black cover)
-The stiches where the elastic is stiched into the front cover is widening.
-Very, very bulky.. I thought it would be okay but this makes the phone almost twice as thick. When normally my note slides into my jeans, with this case it had to go into my jacket pocket. Just saying in case you like to carry your note in your jeans pockets.
+It covers every side of the phone
+The grippy area makes it easy to use it as a stand in alot of angles
-Cant give it a 20 degree angle like I could with the SPIGEN SGP Stehen case, so when you're on a desk and want a slight tilt to the note.. can't do it with the zenus case.
Overall: It can't beat Spigen, but then again.. its 15 bucks cheaper.
In case anyone is interested:

My elastic band feels the same as it did when I received it 4 months ago. For what its worth..

Speck Clear GemShell for HTC One - Mini Review

Hi all,
I've been a lurker for many years here on XDA and figured I'd try and contribute for once. Sorry if someone has posted a review on this case in the other threads. I looked around for a bit but didn't find any.
I received my Speck GemShell for my HTC One http://www.speckproducts.com/smartphone-cases/htc/gemshell-for-htc-one.html about 3 days ago. It's a hard plastic case with gel incorporated around it. BTW, for those considering shipping options, mine shipped out from Oklahoma so it reached me in Chicago in a day via the free shipping option (USPS). That being said, here are my impressions so far:
Pros:
- The case still leaves the phones feeling pretty slim (though I still do prefer it nekkid).
- It's clear except for a gel around the front rim, corners, and inputs.
- The gel around the front rim elevates the phone when placing it on its face.
- The gel around the inputs will hopefully prevent wearing/cracking of the hard plastic.
- Seems well sealed enough that I haven't seen any dust or pocket enter the space between the case and phone.
- The speck logo on the back is really well done. It makes it seem like it's a part of the aluminum.
Cons:
- The power button becomes really recessed. Not a deal breaker for me but definitely something to take note of.
- Interacting with the volume buttons requires more effort.
- I'm OCD on keeping fingerprints off my phone/case and the cleaning has left micro-scratches on the case. So far it doesn't interfere with the appearance but we'll see after a longer period of time.​- Wish the gel actually covered the entire sides, top, and bottom for better coverage. Even with the clear plastic, you don't really see the aluminum on the sides, top, and bottom.
So you can see the selling point of this phone is not only that it's a clear case but the gel that they've incorporated into it. I'm a bit sad on the micro-scratches but I'm not convinced there's any other case-based solution that would be cost effective. I've attached pictures of the case below.
Hope this mini-review helps!

Thick, will turn yellow after a couple of weeks unlike other hard clear cases (such as the Spigen) and it's not very clear. Its very visible on the phone and defeats the purpose of it being clear.

And you know what they say about opinions.

I just got this case in the mail over the weekend (still waiting on phone) and The case feels rather flimsy on its own and is incredibly thin. I have no doubt it'll protect against scratches, but feels like it'll do nothing for drops. I didn't expect Otterbox protection, but was hoping for some kind of impact absorption. Anyone have any experience with these cases and drops with previous devices?

Actually I went into the Sprint store on Thursday the 18th & purchased the white & silver speck case cor my HTC ONE that I was receiving in the mail the next day on the 19th & liked my case on it because it matches tne phone perfectly & fits it really tight like a body glove. It's hard to put on & hard to take off but I saw the clear gel case by speck o line yesterday morning & wanted that one because it will show my phone all the way around, I just dont want it to loosen up over time but this one I do have by speck is a hard shell case on the outside but a softgray rubber on the inside

I've had mine for two weeks and it's VERY yellow. I'll post pics when I can. I've had other clear cases before, hard and soft, but never had them turn yellow like this one.

I ordered this case also. I already have the Griffin reveal now so I'm not sure how this case will compare.

Can anyone clarify if the back of this case is ridged? specifically where the back middle transitions to that alternate black color before it turns into the bezel. I have a feeling that it's just a glossy border, but the pictures don't dhow enough detail to tell.

This case is the closest I think i'll be able to get to an Urban Armor Gear case. Here's to hoping it's a quality case.

Just got my cases in finally, after 3 weeks. Much better quality than I was expecting, and definitely cool looking. A couple complaints though. One is that it's a major PITA to put on and take off. I hate feeling like I'm going to break my phone every time I take the case off (I'm looking at you, Poetic Atmosphere!). My other complaint, and this is a big one, is that it has some seriously wicked edges that make the phone a pretty uncomfortable to hold. For a phone that feels so nice in the hand, it's a shame to have a case on it that essentially kills that comfort altogether. I also have the Griffin Reveal which is a very similar design- not as cool looking as the Supcase but much more comfortable to hold. It's edges are a lot smoother and the material around the sides of the phone is a lot softer. The reveal is *almost* just as comfortable to hold as the naked phone, as it follows the contours of the phone very closely. The Supcase on the other hand focuses more on styling at the cost of those comfortable contours. If you want a case like this, ie. soft bumper around edges but clear plastic back, I'd recommend the Reveal over the Supcase. My $.02.
Edit: The Supcase has the dimple whereas the Reveal does not. I know somebody is bound to ask that question.

I ordered it when it was on preorder which is why it took so long. If you ordered it from the seller on Amazon you'll probably have it in under a week.

Yep, that's how they shipped it to me. I'm pretty sure it ships out of Memphis, Tenn. DHL handles the interstate travels and then transfers it to USPS for the final delivery. No clue why they use DHL, they must have a contract/agreement with them. Some of the colors are available through Prime from the same seller so it pretty much has to be within the US.

I got the Supcase. It took a while to get but it's a nice case. I mostly use it for work since it's so sturdy. I also like the Griffen Reveal better, it fits well and is not as bulky. The Reveal has a completly clear back were as this Supcase is kind of a cloudy back.

Does anyone know if where the clear plastic meets the glossy is flat? If somebody had a picture at a good angle would be awesome!

Which case should i get?

so im very particular about my case. What im looking for is a case that matches my siler HTC one as well as possible, so probably white and black. I prefer a minimalistic, modern look. I prefer it to feel good in the hand. and lastly to offer decent protection but not be huge and bulky. Here are the cases im deciding between at the moment. but im open to suggestions

Speck candyshell

I've personally always liked the Speck Candyshell. Durable as hell. Had my One X covered in a Candyshell and it got ejected during a car crash. The case had deep gashes but the phone was untouched.

How much bulk did it add? And how does it feel in the hand? Because it looks like the white is a shiny plastic.

It adds probably 2mm to the thickness. It doesn't feel slippery or anything, they do a pretty good job of making the case fairly grippy.

Avoid clear-ish thermoplastic cases. Just an fyi they will discolor after a few months of use. They are cheap and not bulky, but don't maintain their clear appearance

I have a Cruzerlite Bugdroid, clear case. I discolored in about 2 months, looks nicotine stained, lol. I would recommend the Otterbox Commuter, which I also have.

I have the Cimo S-Line clear case for my HTC One (M7). I've had it for about 4 months and it has not discoloured. I like that it doesn't detract from the sleek look of the phone, yet it does keep it from getting scratched and has enough "bounce" to protect it in a drop and keep the screen raised just enough to prevent contact with the ground. Link to the product on Newegg as well as link to another post I made with pics of my actual case/phone.

Here's my Bear Motion case... not at all the protection of the two you posted but I like a minimalist case that just keeps the phone from the everyday scratches that I can still easily fit in my slacks without bulking up too much. It's got a sweet felt/cork like coating on it. It's very nice in the hands.

That looks exactly the same as my imak case. Bought it from eBay under 10 dollars.

Second this. Got the blue on Amazon for $7 and can fit a Qi receiver underneath for wireless charging.

Yea if you are somewhat accident prone, then I'd definatly get a heavier duty case. I vote for the UAG case. That's the one I'd go for if I were to get a more rugged one. I'd like the white one, but have heard about camera flash issues with it...

I almost got the blue one! Thought it might be too flashy for me at work and settled on the black which I love. However I'd still like to see pics of your blue one if you got em
More information on this Qi charging system. I've seen a few, but none that are small enough to fit beneath this case...

I usually take pictures with my phone but will try to get one later. It's pretty subdued though.
This is the qi receiver I bought.

Yeah I have the Bear Motion case as well , I have the blue. And it's perfect if you need a case for grip but not protection. The case looks very well built and is extremely slim. The finish is very smooth but also has some grip to it. For $6 on Amazon I couldn't get a better deal.
