[CASE REVIEW] CaseMate - Tough Case for the Sony Xperia Z3c topic

01:49






Hello everyone :o

I'll be doing a short review, for the CaseMate - Tough Case for the Sony Xperia Z3 Compact Smartphone.

I'm not a professional reviewer, so I'll speak as a casual user.

Here's the official page for this case : Tough Case

Let's start with the basics, I ordered mine through Amazon for 27 euros and it arrived in less than a week :D, wonderful job from them during this time of the year.

I received the package this morning at my favorite drop point (Relais-Colis, quite useful here) and I decided to pick it up on my way to work.

As I am the impatient type, I decided to try it on as soon as I got back in my car :p

Unboxing

Well, let's be honest, I'm kind of disappointed with this case... The plastics look cheap and dont have the "tough" feel I expected from them.

But it's not the most problematic point since most manufacturers tends to do this, the case doesn't fit my brand new phone the way it should do it but it's easy to see why.

CaseMate didn't think through the whole thing, by leaving the left top side (the USB connector zone) unprotected to allow us to easily charge our phone, they weakened the corner construction and allowed a gap to exist between the case and the back of the phone.

Gap between phone and case

Another view angle

Coming from a product with this price tag, this is a huge let down for me.

I even tried to force the case to fit (not too much, didn't want to break my precious...) but to no avail, the gap is here.

Well, there's nothing else to say, let's do a quick review.

The pros
  • The 3 fully protected corners looks... well... protected

  • Unusual design


The cons
  • Cheap plastics (both internal and external layers)

  • Wrong assembly for the top left corner

  • High price


Verdict

I'm fairly disappointed at CaseMate for selling me some sweet dreams with this case and for delivering this kind of finitions, they could have really worked a little harder to fix the top left corner, as for the look and feel, it's nice but not enough to redeem the former flaw.

So for me, this case is a no-no :(

I've already arranged the return & refund with Amazon, I hope my next case will do the trick this time.

Q&A

Anyone here bought the same case but didn't have this issue ? Or are we all doomed with this not-so-good case ?
