Zagg Z.Buds Review

January 25th, 2009 PSP Reviews No comments
Zagg recently introduced the Z.Buds which are designed to be used with the iPhone. I received a pair to take a look at and test out over the past month. Lets take a look at how good they are.The first thing I noticed when receiving the Z.Buds from Zagg is the tangle free cord that they have (thanks to the cords being covered in a nylon surrounding). This is a nice addition as headphone wires always get tangled up… not these though. As well as having a tangle free cord there is an inline volume c

4 Stars The Case That You Can Leave On!
I’ve owned the Logitech Playgear Pocket for my PSP (Fat version). It was a serviceable case that protected my system during transport. However, because the case was too clunky to play with it on, I was still required to remove the unit while playing. As a result, I still ended up with slight scratches on my system.

I recently purchased a PSP Slim and I was looking for a better solution for protection. My search on Google for “best PSP slim protection” returned the Joytron Crystal Skin case. I proceeded to read numerous reviews on the case – which were primarily positive experiences. I was particularly attracted to the extremely slim design, crystal clear plastic, and easy access to the essentials without the removal of the case (unlike the Logitech). So I plunked $[...] for the Joytron case. None of my local shops carry it, so I had to order it online through Amazon. [...]

Shipping was super fast with email communication. It comes in a box with Korean writing on it. English instructions were provided inside. I also received a complimentary portable mini stand allowing me to prop up the PSP to watch movies on a table. One thing to remember is that the case does NOT protect the screen. This allows you to apply/replace a screen protector of your choice. I applied the Invisible Shield by Zagg to my screen prior to installing the case. Case was pretty easy to install. You just have to be careful not to damage the hooks that holds the pieces together…as they feel a bit fragile. Installation was very easy – it took about 15 minutes. Everything fits very snuggly around the system.

With the case on, my PSP Slim feels quite nice to play without very noticeable bulk. Paired with the Invisible Shield, I can confidently put it into my pocket quickly without juggling with a separate case. Offers protection from scratches and fingerprints. However, because of the slim design, it will not protect the PSP from drops. I highly recommend this case!

5 Stars Best PSP case ever!!!
Hey guys, I am doing a review for the system skin case from joytron for the psp slim. I know that you might have a new or already own a psp slim but you are afraid it will get scratches or dirty right? Well with the Joytron system skin case you wont need to worry about your psp getting those things. It is a crystal clear case that is almost unnoticeable and is very slim to go with the psp. Its is a very strong case and is recommended to anyone who has a psp. You will have access to all ports and buttons and will be able to open your umd door. The case comes in 4 pieces that are easy to install and hooks to the main front piece that goes on the front of the psp. One piece actually holds on the umd door itself so you can open it. Its not expensive and can be bought from nuritech.com. I have bought one from them and i am very glad i did. I had dropped my God Of War psp but luckily I had the case on and my psp had no damage and no scratches. I really recommend it.

5 Stars Amazing Case. Beats all the other cases.
Wow. I don’t know where to start with this product. It’s so amazing and so sleek. I love how it just snaps together in 4 pieces. Shipping was outstanding. It came in only 3 days!! When I first opened the package, I thought wow, cool box!! But when I took the case out, I thought “Oh wow, its going to be one of those junk cases!” I got pretty mad. But! When I firmly put it on my PSP, it was sooo cool! It maybe added a LITTLE weight, but it well protect your PSP for sure. Although, the hooks are EXTREMELY fragile, so let’s not forget that.

5 Stars Best Case Ever
I like the joytron case because unlike comparable cases it leaves all ports open. It is not bulky like the official sony case. It also has four pieces that fit perfectly onto the psp. I wouldn’t recommend dropping it but I did and it stayed on.

5 Stars Is it worth it? Yes it is.
I ordered a new Slim PSP special edition. So here I was with my brand new system that I wanted to protect. I began to shop around for skins-case that would protect my system while allowing me to show it off. I found the Sony clear plastic case that is designed for the Slim PSP… OMG is that thing huge. It literally defeats the purpose of the slim in my opinion. So I kept looking and found the Logitech version… same problem, its thick, very thick. Don’t get me wrong I am sure that they do a great job of protecting the PSP, but they were not what I was looking for. Just as I am about ready to give up on my search I came across an unknown (to me) name producing a clear skin that they promote as Slim… I did a little checking and reading up on the product and figured that it was probably about as close as I could come to what I wanted. So I ordered it. I found it on eBay and thought well several feedbacks from them said that the seller was a good dealer, didn’t see anything to put me off. When I saw that it had free shipping I started to think “oh no” but I went ahead and got it. First let me say that I paid on Monday, and with the free shipping they offered… it was here Wednesday, already a good start. I opened the brown box and found what surprised me. Considering what I paid for the skin the quality of the box was very high. I know what you’re thinking, what does the box have to do with it, but consider this, they didn’t have to spend the money to make a quality box if they knew they were selling something cheap. So I opened the box that actually contained the skin and pulled out a funny kind of sticky but not really piece of plastic that had wrapped up my new skin. I began to unwrap my skin and my first impression was “wow this thing is thin, and it seems kind of flimsy” but that was before I installed it. Installation was about as simple as it can get. When I had it in place, (4 parts, a few simple snaps, and a quick polish before I began) I no longer had the impression that it was a cheap product. I began to see exactly why they went the way they did with their design. My PSP still feels thinner then an original PSP. It does not feel any heavier. Best of all, It does exactly what I wanted. I can still connect each and every cable, strap, and device I used to connect before the skin was installed. I can still place my PSP on my docking station to charge it while I watch videos on my HDTV. My PSP still fits in my hand dock charger that extends battery life with giving a better grip. I barely even notice it’s on there, that is until I drop my PSP (about 2 feet) and have an instant “OH CRAP” reaction. I picked it up and did a very thorough inspection. I found the scratch, on my new skin. It saved my PSP. That right there is why I bought this skin and it has already paid for itself. Oh and by the way, even though my skin is scratched, it did not crack and still protects exactly as it used to. The only thing that could make this skin better would be to include a LCD protector with it. That’s not a big deal they sell those too. So do yourself (and your PSP) a favor and pick up one of these and a screen protector. You won’t be disappointed, oh and they come in various color styles if you don’t like the clear.

10 out of 10

Thank you Joytron.
