Rokbed Fuzion Aluminum Case

Tom Moccia — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 00:11:30 +0000

Rating: 9 of 10
Pros: Superior protection and design, the new polycarbonate bottom is a huge improvement, no signal or GPS drop-out, just plainsexy, Made in the USA, superior customer service, cutouts big enough for third party connectors and some docks.
Cons: Needs to include a rear screen shield, upper end of price spectrum.
Overall: The Rokbed Fuzion by Rokform is a great improvement on the original Rokbed which I adored. The fact that you no longer need a screwdriver to apply and remove the case makes the Fuzion an everyday case option for those of us that may need to remove the case. With many colors to choose from and a few specialty camo paint jobs your sure to find one that you will just love. I find it hard to take this case off my phone so with that fact, great design and made in Southern California, this case gets my Editor’s Choice Award.

Go to the Rokform website, check out all their products and pick up your Fuzion for $79-$99. You won’t be sorry.

Cygnett Apollo Hybrid Case

Tom Moccia — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 07:17:40 +0000

Rating: 9 out of 10
Pros: Super matte finish, soft rubber interior, easy to get out with the bottom “tongue”, the price is right at under $30, soon to come in a variety of colors, feels great in the hand, no flash bounce back.
Cons: The button piece near the 30 pin has a slight sag.
Overall: The Cygnett Apollo case for the iPhone 4 and 4S is a solid case under $30 and it definitely rivals that of higher priced offerings from other companies. The only reason this case doesn’t get a perfect score is because of the minor sag at the bottom, emphasis on minor. Cygnett has really impressed me with their diligence and innovation over the past year and they have certainly become a legit force in the accessory market. They have listened to what their customers have been asking for and it has obviously served them well. I look forward to reviewing more of their cases, but in the meantime the Apollo gets my editor’s Choice Award.

You can pick up the Cygnett Apollo and any other Cygnett product from www.Cygnett.com.

Speck Candyshell Grip

Tom Moccia — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 04:44:42 +0000

Rating: 9 out of 10
Pros: Speck quality, thinner and wider, no slip grip, easy to get on and off, cool colors, raised rubber keeps the case from scratching on the back.
Cons: Pricey at $34.95, the rubber grips are a tradeoff to easy slide in and out of pockets.
Overall: The Speck Candyshell Grip is a nice addition to the Candyshell family with a bit of a different feel. The Grip is a bit thinner than other Candyshells and a bit wider so there is a distinctive feel to the case. The rubber grips add extra hold and are ideal for gaming, texting and just keeping your phone where it is supposed to be. With the raised rubber grips the spine no longer has an issue with scratching but the tradeoff is less of easy slide in and out of the pockets.

You can pick up the Speck Candyshell Grip from many outlets but the easiest way to to just head on over to www.SpeckProducts.com and take advantage of free shipping on all US orders.
