Xperia Play Otterbox commuter Case review READ ME BEFORE BUYING IT

Case: 1 star
Hello all,
Thought I'd give my input on this case before anyone else buys this thing.
The case as a whole and it's construction/quality is very good, hard durable plastic, good silicon underlay helps protect the back. Overall good quality.
People have mentioned that it's very hard to press the L/R and the volume buttons. I didn't have much of an issue, sure it's harder, but not impossible.
The dust covers on the USB and microphone jack are very good, fits in well, and easy to remove, and put back in.
If this was it, the Otterbox case would be great and get 5 stars.
So why then am I only giving this case 1 star? Simple, two fatal flaws that completely break this case.
1) To the left of the USB port are two clips keeping the top and bottom halves attached, these two clips OVERLAP. Why is this a bad thing? Because they push the screen apart, as well when you move the screen up and down, it will scratch against the gamepad. Over time this could cause some bad scratches or damage to the gamepad.
2) This is my biggest problem. The silicon inlay is too thick. What problem does this present? The clips on the side of the case rely on things fitting perfectly in order to latch onto the phone. Since the silicon is too thick, when the case is fitted, the clips are pushed out too far to properly grab on to edges of the phone. I noticed this when I was using the volume buttons, since I have to push down harder on the volume buttons than normal, because of the silicon, the extra force would push the case apart.
I have called Otterbox, and have twice had replacements sent to me, all had the same problems. I tried taking out the silicon and putting it on, the case fit PERFECTLY. But some of the buttons, power button, volume, L/R buttons are not as easily pressed anymore.
When I called Otterbox the last one, the rep made mention that it is an older phone and wasn't sure if they ever intended to fix the problem. He didn't say it, but you could tell what he was thinking.
These problems have existed since the case was made, theres no reason the problem should still exist. So they never intent to do anything, and anyone already with the case is forgotten about.
This is the second Otterbox case I have had problems with, my other was my Xperia X10 Impact case. I won't be buying any more Otterbox cases.
Just thought I'd share this in case anyone was even considering the Otterbox case for their Play.
When I get some money, I'll be trying out a Trident case.

Thanks for the review, I found it helpful.

I had an otterbox case on my old phone and it was awesome. Soon as I bought this phone last August I bougt an ottetbox case. Piece of crap for the same reasons you described thankfully I was provided and refund and got to keep the case, which sits in its box since August. Again stay the hell away from otterbox for this case is worthless and junk. I have never tried another case. However I do keep a nice otterbox screen shield on for good measure. That works well too bad I can't say the same for the case.

you are much better off with a trident aegis. In my view the best case on the market for play. If you don't have the dough get a cheap £3 gel case from ebay. Don't buy an acrylic case as they dont fit well or last long.
I have a £30 otterbox discarded somewher in my office. Waste of money

Good luck trying to get it to stay with an invisibleSHIELD on also

i bought a trident case for my play.
Best decision ever.
Perfect fit and buttons are very easy to press.
The only bad thing is that there are no dust covers for the ports and the shoulder buttons are exposed, but that shouldnt stop you from getting this case.
You will enjoy it.

here in the Philippines, otterbox staff are also expert dickheads.. they're arrogant

This is the best Xperia Play case you can buy. I've got one and it's awesome !
It puts aside any of your trident cases.

Well I have to say it doesn't look cheap or degraded. It fits perfectly well and does a good job of protecting the phone.
And the reason why I bought this case is because it's see through and I have a white Xperia Play so it looks awesome !

I have a Trident case for mine. I read too many bad reviews about otterbox that so i went with Trident. It does a very good job of protecting my phone and makes it have some grip so you don't drop it so easily.

I think the Otterbox was redesigned, because I experience NONE of this "clip overlap" issue that I read about. I received mine today and did not even know people had any issue until reading some reviews. I carefully inspected mine and it is flawless. Nothing rubs or scrapes at all. It is smooth as butter. Nor is it "falling off" like others claim. The volume controls are actually easier to volume up and down now, and while yes, there is a little more push involved with the trigger buttons, it is not so much that I cannot push them. It is great to know they are sealed from dust/grime/crap.
I cannot say anything wrong with this case at all. There are cutouts as well for the speakers, and I noticed some reviews said that there were not. I think the case has been re-done, because none of the reviews/reports reflect my case at all??
EDIT: I think I figured it out. If you put the top portion BACKWARD, the tabs overlap each other. You must ensure to put it on the RIGHT WAY and it will not scrape, etc. Wish they were a little more informative and let you know the correct method on the package. I did not put it on the wrong way, but after looking it over I can see how someone can do this and experience what the original reviewer did. When installed the correct way, *nothing* rubs.

Never been a fan of Otterbox.... I find their cases too bluky and overkill on the protection. I have been using the Seidio Active case for over a year now and have had 0 issues as well. I only paid like $20 bucks as well. I just got email confirmation from Seidio that they are in production of an Active Case for the Nexus 7.

the pink is cute but the kickstand looks very cheap and only works one way.
my perfect case would be one that has a rotating adjustable height kickstand.The case should be hard shell and cover the front to protect the screen then be able to pull off and snap on the back to use as a stand..and store the screen cover.. I scratch the screen protector in my purse..
anyway great finds guys..
i will keep watching ..

Spotted this on Amazon Uk, very cheap and looks to be adaptable if you can stand (geddit??) to have a seperate stand.

The prices are a little higher, but it's a relief to see some nice looking cases other after the zillions of horrible $10 faux-leather portfolio ones. I'm not sure which one I'll get yet, but I'm getting tired of the stock grey rubber one I got with the N7.

I would get one if they had all black. Its a good price.

Thanks! I swiped the last one. He/she must've grabbed them from a U.S. Cellular store nearby. Not sure how much they cost there, but that was a good price considering what Ballistic is asking for online.

If anyone is curious. It has been relisted. You can get to it following the link in the first post and reading the yellow bar. I just ordered one. Hopefully its legitimate. Seems legit. Lol

I think there is still one available if im reading the listing correctly. I need a case with a holster so to find a holster is my mission. ......

I had this case for the original note... Not my favorite. Not exactly ballistic, but pretty much the same...

will this case protect the screen, It seems like it raises a little off the front so I assume if dropped that should protect the screen. I'm debating between something like this and a flip case.

cheaper by $3:laugh:

Well I got my Ballistic case in the mail today and as much as I like the appearance of my Seidio Active case, this is going to replace it. The Seidio looks very appealing but I doubt it offers as good of protection as this Ballistic. The rubber is thicker plus it has the reinforced corners which is this phones Achilles hill. For anyone that has a Seidio Active, the rubber has a smell to it and the Ballistic does not(dont judge me, its my phone and I will smell it if I want to). The shell is nothing fancy plus I will lose the kickstand function of the Active case but I dont use it much. The buttons on the Ballistic case stick out a little further than the Active. The best part is that even though it is thicker, I can still use the Seidio holster. The funny thing is I did the same thing with my Evo 3D except it was an Otterbox case with a Seidio holster.

Otterbox Defender Case (look-a-like)

I bought this on ebay for my epic touch and thought it would be cool to share with xda, check it out ... It's a Otterbox Note 2 Defender Case (look-a-like)
CHECK IT OUT
it has all the features of the defender case except the Clear protective membrane on touch screen or the Ratcheting belt clip holster...
I drop my phone once from getting out the car and it was on lap, the case protected the phone perfect, no scratch or hard impact...
Just sharing ... its not otterbox but its something cheap and it protects
The quality is equal to otterbox, I had Defender cases on my other devices and this is equivalent... the seller has 4-5 different colors, I got mines in 4-5 days

Does it have the foam on the inside of the hard plastic like the Otterbox?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium

Ordered, will report when I get it.

It's funny, the look-a-likes for most the big name brands: otterbox, ballistic, seidio all have counterparts that look almost identical to them design wise and perform nearly up to par, but at at most 1/4 of the retail price.

does this case have port covers like the otterbox?

That type of black rubber looks like it will attract dust/lint.
Anyway I'll probably get the white one.
Thanks for the link.

Is this case easy to remove from the phone? Had one on order already just waiting for it to be shipped.

Had this case on my gs3 for 2 days then removed it. Its a bad fit. Holes dont line up. Rubber feels like a cheap dog toy. There is no padding on inner layer so it will scratch your phone. Bulkier then a defender. Its harder to take off then a defender. Just a bad case imo
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app

Thanks for the info. Just ordered one. Nice price....

I've been rocking mine for a week now. Bad fit but I overcame that by adding black velvet tape I had for my home theater screen border. This helps it fit better and helps keep it from scratching my phone. The case still creaks when you handle it but not as badly. It's heavy. But I like it more than I hate it. I love portrait and landscape kickstand modes. Lint magnet, yes. But nothing I can't blow off by blowing hard with my mouth, as filthy as that sounds.
---------- Post added at 08:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 AM ----------
The buttons originally lined up perfectly and we're extremely easy to press, which is a good thing. But since I added my velvet spacer, sometimes I have to fight to press the side buttons accurately. In the end, I'm loving this case still. And no, mine came with no plus for the ports. Not sure if it was supposed to but thought it was.

I think the best part is it has all the features of the defender case except the "Clear protective membrane" on touch screen ... I think since were using a stylus ... a screen protector will be better then the loose "Clear protective membrane"

It's not like it's permanently attached to the otterbox...you can pull it out if you wanted to. Done it many times. And the s-pen works fine through screen protectors. It's not your typical stylus. I will continue to wait for the real thing personally.
And it doesn't have all the features...no port covers and no holster.

Diztronic SGN II case in stock

I had their case for my Galaxy Nexus where it provided great protection and was also lightweight. I just ordered their case for the GN II and I'm excited to receive it. I went to the sprint store the other day looking for the bodyglove everyone has been talking about but ended up buying some bulky and heavy case from ventev.
http://tpu-cases.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=42_83&products_id=326
No pics are up but Clay did provide me with some rough samples. This looks to be far less bulky than the ventev and otterbox cases. I'll post pics once it arrives.

Yes, the other one was first, but I prefer to see images of the case on the phone. (like I'm sure most users would)
The TPU site doesn't provide that - this post does.
I vote to keep this one and kill the other.

Would like to purchase via amazon.

My case shipped out yesterday so I should have pics by Thursday or Friday. As for cutouts there weren't any for the Galaxy Nexus and that did become a pain however with the few cases I've tried for the GN2 the lack of cutouts is not a problem.

ooh. looks like they will have a clear one too... don't want to hide that textured back of the GN2!

Just got my case in. I like it much better than the case from Cruzerlite.
Edit: First impressions. Love the matte finish and the smoothness of the back. I wasn't much of fan of the back of the Cruzerlite case, but I dealt with it. Vol Up/Down and power buttons seem a bit a "clickier".

I'm jealous! I am still waiting for mine.. hopefully tomorrow

You'll most likely get it tomorrow! I ordered mine at 6pm on the 17th and got it today. I live in Chicago. The pictures you posted don't do the case justice! It's MUCH nicer in person.

Thanks for the reassurance. I'm waiting for mine. Bought mine on the 18th. Hopefully see it tomorrow as well.

Got the case yesterday and it is great! It doesn't slip, it's light, and offers very good protection. Without the case I would frequently hit the power button but there is less of that now. I wish I hadnt spent 30 bucks on that bulky ventev case from sprint.

If I didn't "need" a kickstand in a case, this would be my number 1 choice. Their case kicked ass on my Galaxy Nexus. This is the best slim type case with a great matte non slip finish, and the cost is always very reasonable. I wish Sammy made phones whose bodies were like this case lol.
