The kind people at Poetic have given me the opportunity to write a review for two of their cases. I must say, I’m pretty impressed. But if you know Poetic and the quality of their products then you know that’s not anything new. Let’s start with the Revolution Series, shall we?

Amazon Link - My Pics will be up this weekend

The front piece is made of plastic and has a built in screen protector. It sort of snaps onto the front of the phone and leaves the back exposed. And then there is the back piece that brings it all together. This piece is a TPU rubber that actually overlaps the front piece on the side of the phone. This brings the whole thing together in a nice protective package that is actually pretty easy on the eyes. The closest point of reference for this would be an Otterbox style case, but this is not… it’s Poetic. And it’s beautiful.

The quality of this case is pretty stellar to be honest. It’s not cheaply made by any means and I didn’t fear for my phone while this case was on it. While I did not do a drop test, I’m pretty confident this case would protect the phone for nearly any everyday drop. Obviously no one WANTS to drop their phone, but this case could take it if you did.

Opinion: The only improvement that I could see this case needing is the built in screen protector. Due to the type of plastic used on it, it gives a weird rainbow effect on parts of the screen. For most this won’t be a bother. Especially since you can’t see it while the screen is on. If you need an inexpensive, yet quality built rugged case, this will do the trick. It looks great on the phone and it feels great in the hand. Additionally, you can be confident your investment is protected, should you accidentally drop your phone.

And now the Affinity Series case… I am a little biased about this case, and you’ll see why in the photos attached.

This is a one piece, hard TPU case that sort of snaps onto the phone. It’s very minimalist but still gets the job done at protecting your investment. I actually had a friend look at the phone with this case on it and he said, “Damn… This looks like it was designed to come on this phone from the factory.” Can we say OEM quality here?! The sides of the case are ribbed to prevent accidental slipping out of your hand. The case itself is 80-90% clear hard plastic with black accents. The black accents are really what pulls the design together on this case. The accents are raised ever so slightly from the clear to prevent it from becoming scratched and yes, it does an excellent job at that.

The designed quality on this case is like none other I’ve used. It is literally as if the mold is poured on the device and then peeled off. I doubt it’s done that way, but it is that snug and form fitting. That to me is quite refreshing in a world of cheaply made name brand knockoffs.

Opinion: I doubt this case will protect a device this large from a high drop. That’s not any fault of the case, but rather the large phone paired with a minimalist form fitting case. However, if you are like me and want something that will protect it from the everyday toss it on the table scenario, then this is for you. Very thin design that to me actually complements the phone’s design and the phone compliments the case design. I agree with what my friend said… It’s as if this case were designed specifically for this phone to be sold as a pair.

Final Thoughts: Both of these cases are great products. And yet again, Poetic knocks it out of the park with their innovative design and actually building a case around the phone so that they sort of meld as one unit. (That's an opinion of course) Hats off to you Poetic. I work in both Facilities and IT, and these cases are a godsend. Simply put… Poetic designs their cases with the user in mind. And to me, that’s everything. I highly recommend these cases to anyone!

If you have questions or would like better pictures, let me know. I'll answer as many as I can. :D

Also, I will choose someone at random and send them the Revolution case that I tried out! Free of charge of course!

*Yes it's been used. No it's not damaged in any way shape or form. Yes it will be free and I'll pay shipping. :D
