BoxWave Capacitive Asus Transformer Pad 300 LTE Stylus (Jet Black)

I'm pretty picky when it comes to some odd and esoteric things and cell phone cases, especially belt-clipped ones, are no exception. What can I say, little things can get to me sometimes.

I'm a little chubby, so having something clipped to my belt quite often irritates my side a bit, especially when sitting or moving. Usually if the clip itself is too big. I had a semi-generic case that I got at a Cingular kiosk at the mall and hated it. It wasn't cut for the phone at all, in order to use the phone I had to remove it entirely from the case, and the clip was too big, it poked me in the side and irritated me as I walked. Inevitably I'd have to remove it and put it in my pocket. The clip wasn't removeable either, so it added too much bulk to even my jacket pocket.

The pictures don't do this case justice. The 'screw' you see fits neatly and easily into the slot on the clip, and the clip holds it in pretty well, released by a simple thumb press on the button on top of the clip. The clip itself is unobtrustive when the phone isn't in it, I usually forget it's there. Even when the phone is in it, if I turn it horizontally to angle with my belt, I barely know it's there. The only downside is that the latch that holds down the screw isn't very stiff or sturdy and it doesn't take a lot of pressure to pop it out. Sitting in a chair or in a car seat can easily press it up and out. Normal walking around doesn't affect it though and that's enough for me. I usually take it off when I'm going to sit down anyway.

The specially-cut holds for all of the buttons and camera are very handy. I definitely feel confident that the phone is safe and at the same time easily useable. Even when I'm not using my hands-free Bluetooth headset, it's still easily manageable.

My one minor gripe is that the case is really designed for the standard battery. That fits great. Put the extended battery on it and it becomes a tight squeeze. Still useable, but the sides bow out a little and it's still not 'in' all the way. That being said, the lid still shuts and snaps shut snuggly, which is more than I can say for the generic one I had before.

Overall it's a sharp product, easily worth the cost. If/when I get a new phone, I'll definitely be back looking for one of these for it.
