Thumbs up XYLO Black Hard Mesh Case - Quick Review

Hi guys!

While waiting for an original hTC TPU case (didn't notice stock unavailability while ordering), I ordered this one for £ 2.9 free shipping from Amazon UK

XYLO Black Hard Mesh Case for hTC Sensation

It's super cool

Pics first























The good
> looks really nice on Sensation or Sensation looks extremely cool in it
> slim, light, minimal bulk added
> matte soft feel design with cut outs for everything
> available in different colors; white, blue, green, pink & red
> cheap + free shipping UK


The bad
> top and bottom not covered, prone to potential damage
> USB doesn't connect properly with case on




Excuse my indoors Desire camera

It looks interesting but also keep note that other sellers may have a different fitting holes as with my experience with my different hard shell cases that look like the barely there cases. My initial black one I bought on ebay was from one seller and the usb cord did not seat very well but when I got the white one, that seated perfectly. Just a fyi.

i got this exact case too. arrived today. was reading your post at lunch today and thought "damnit", cos i didnt look closely and see the top and bottom arent covered. If they were id keep this case as it looks really cool.

Unfortuanately, its a useless case when it doesnt cover 2 of the most likely places your phone will land.

EDIT: FYI, my usb connects fine.

Agree ... if it just covered top and bottom it'd have been a great choice
For me it's a temp till I get original tpu
