[Nexus 6P Accessories] WizeGuyDezignz:
Hey XDA! I wanted to drop a review for the Poetic Revolution case here. I hope you enjoy!

The Packaging:

The case comes packaged in a clear plastic bag for simple presentation. While nothing fancy, it does the job and keeps the case more affordable.

The Look & Feel:

To start, this case definitely screams and looks "RUGGED"! It has a very industrial look and is daring you to drop your phone. This case definitely looks the role of its "rugged" moniker. The frame is a rubber TPU material that definitely helps with grip, and the phone is nice to hold because of it. There are some textures on the TPU that add more to the look than anything else, but they do add a little more grip as well. There are also 3 protruding lines on the top and bottom of each side which add to the rugged look and add grip. Then there is the "Revolution" name engraved into the TPU on the right side of the case (looking at the case from the back of the phone). The back of the case is made of a hard polycarbonate plastic. This definitely adds to the protection element of the case which I will touch on later. Then you have "Poetic" branding on the bottom of the back set in a rubber section. Nice little touch. There are also 3 strips of rubber on each side of the case on the back to add more grip to the case. To wrap things up, there are some faux screws on the corners to complete that rugged and industrial look. To summarize, this case isn't for people who like slim cases. This simply isn't a slim case and it doesn't try to be.

The Features:

This case has a few built-in features that I wanted to touch on. I will start with the built-in kickstand. It feels metal to me and it feels solid. It is easy to open and close and I don't get a flimsy feel from it at all. That is a nice tough. There are also port covers built in which will keep dust and some of the elements out of your ports which I think is great. Yes, it creates a bit of a hassle to charge your phone, plug in headphones, etc., but I think they are fitting in a rugged protection case like this. There is also a loop that you can hook something through to carry your case. I thought it was a nice touch. And last is the built-in screen protector. It is made of plastic and doesn't seem to be able to be removed. I'm in between on this one. I kinda wish there wasn't one since so many people get their own screen protectors nowadays and tempered glass screen protectors are popular right now. Also, there was a slight gap in between the screen protector and the screen of the phone so I had to press down harder to generate key presses. To Poetic's credit, I have a tempered glass screen protector already installed on my phone, so that may have affected the functionality of it. So I am not going to knock the case for this one, I will chalk it up as undecided.

**EDIT** Poetic has contacted me about the issue I was having with the built-in screen protector. They said have anything else on the screen will definitely affect the functionality of the built-in screen protector, which I figured. However, they are still going to have their production team look into it to make sure nothing got past them. That's pretty cool in my book!

The Protection:

On the protection front, I would say it is definitely heavy duty grade. It is advertised as "shock absorption" and I can't say I disagree at all. This case is definitely a tank that seems like it will keep your phone safe from some pretty major drops. I never test drop protection in my reviews because my phones are personal phones paid for with my own money, so I can't take that risk. But it definitely feels like it can withstand some heavy drops. The hard polycarbonate plastic on the back and the solid construction definitely make this case a heavy hitter in the Otterbox tier of cases. As I said in my look & feel section, this case isn't for the slim case lovers. But it's not marketed that way and just from the photos you can tell that much. This case should do the job in rough situations.

The Build:

To keep this pretty simple, this is a well made case with a small hiccup. The case feels good and substantial enough to be completely confident in it. The small hiccup that I've noticed are that the buttons are the easiest things in the world to press. It's not terrible, but it will take a little bit of force to generate the press. Overall, not a deal breaker by any means, but I wanted to mention it.

What I Like:

The build quality

The looks

The built-in kickstand

The protection

The price

What I Don't Like:

The buttons

The Verdict:

Overall, this case is a win. It is well made, should protect a very good amount, and has the looks to match. And all at a reasonable price. Other than a minor issue, I have no problem recommending this case to anyone in the market for a rugged case that will protect your expensive phone.

The Score:

9/10
