I had an almost identical case for my gTablet for almost a year and it never wore down the plastic at all.

Just not into using clamps to secure my tablet. I almost have to bend my tablet to clamp the corners in. And then when adjusted the clamps they just become to loose and don't even hold well. I bought a nice looking caseen.




I am on my 5th Transformer Prime.

It's not an issue for me because I rarely take the Prime out of the case - no reason to since you can dock it without taking the case off. I just loosed the bottom two tabs.

Got mine a few days ago; case gets the job done, and as the prior pictures suggest, case is usable with dock attached, though not necessarily elegant.

In my quest to find the perfect case I found a video that I cannot post yet, since I am new.

But user "ebpman" on youtube has posted a good review of this case for anyone interested.

Watching that video, the Blurex case is 100% identical to the Poetic case I got from Amazon - right down to the shape of all the cutouts and the color of the interior. Cheaper too at $16.95.

Here's the video you're referring to btw:

Just got my case. Not bad for $15 I spent on it. The 2 bottom tabs isnt really hard to disengage from the tablet as long as you push the tablet up enough so its sitting as close to the top tabs. When closed the center tabs kind of gets in the way of the cover so it bends it a little bit isnt flushed against the screen. I'm not sure why the front cover has a crease and is foldable but not sure for what. I can fold it backward and if there was a hook in the back it will probably stand that way. The case adds weight to the tablet and all together feels 2x as heavy. The top center tab on the cover that wraps around the top center of the tablet to lock the cover in place is a bit tight. I have to lift it up over the prime bezel carefully. But once its closed it adds a lot of security to the tablet so makes me feel safer incase it drops or something. When you flip the cover all the way to the other side it doesnt sit perfectly against the back and creates a gap in between making the tablet kinda of hard to hold.

Overall worth the $15 I spend but I don't think I'd spend more than $20 for it. Once the oragami goes down in price thats what I'll be going with along with the skinomi skin.

If you guys still want to buy the Blurex but dont want to spend the updated price of $29 then get the Poetic ones which is exactly the same as the Blurex. It's only $16.95 now with free shipping. 2 left in stock while I'm posting this.

So now I see why the Blurex front cover has a fold. So you can do this like the Poetic one....

This is my Blurex
