Nothing Special; Durablity Questionable., 13 Nov 2011
By Lady Action Fan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: PDair B41 Black Leather Case for Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0 YP-G70 (Electronics)
I originally ordered this through Amazon but when I found out it would take 3 weeks to deliver, I cancelled. (Ordering online - with Amazon Prime - is about instant, or almost instant gratification, isn't it?). But after a fairly extensive search, I found there are very few case options for the Galaxy Player 5.0, so I ended up at the PDAir website and ordered direct from the manufacturer (in China) for the same price and free shipping. Delivery took exactly 2 weeks.
Anyway, the product does the job of offering the player some protection, but it is nothing special. I definitely wouldn't have paid the listed price for it in any other circumstance.
The only thing that holds the player in place is case's snug fit. I wonder how long that fit will last. More importantly, pushing in the USB cord or headphones can dislodge the player. Depending on where it is or how you're holding it at the time, that can result in a disaster. Also, there are no straps to balance the fit/hold, so the case flexes and bends at areas that aren't held on (top front and back). Another thing the makes me question durability.
The only screen protection is the closed cover. So you will need additional screen protection. I added the Skinomi TechSkin - Screen Protector Shield for Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0. Which is spectacular.
On the plus side, there are cutouts for the major connections, so I can charge, use headphones, camera and mic without removing the case. And there are two pockets on the cover for small notes, receipts or business cards. And room on the side for a pen or stylus.
Given the limited options on the market and the enormous hassles of returning this to China, I will keep it. But I will also be on the lookout for something else.

Just a perfect case, 30 Oct 2011

The case fits perfectly to the device, without significant adding to thickness (still fits in suite pocket). Belt clip is also an option added. Access to all connectors is unimpeded. As heavy user of the device do not find any restrictions for use while in the case (discrete but protective).

Not too bad, 27 Oct 2011

Overall, the case does it's job. It provides what is, so far, great protection.
I did find it a bit difficult to put on. Fair warning, it is a VERY tight fit. At first, after struggling for several minutes, I was about to return it as the wrong product. But after giving it one last try, I succeeded in getting it on my Samsung.
I am concerned about how well the leather section holding the front to the main part will last, as it is constantly bent back in order to use the Samsung. Only time will tell.
