HTC One Clear Poetic Case – Review

There is a saying that goes along the lines of “You’re just going to put a case on it”. This means that it doesn’t matter about the shape and look of the phone, because you’re going to put a case on and hide it anyway. The HTC One offers a fantastic body and was the main reason I went for it over say the S4. But I covered it up in a protective, yet bulky Commuter Case. I have been using that case for so long, I have forgotten what the phone actually looked like. So I was a bit hesitant when Rich sent over this case to review, its about 90% less bulky, see through and built around the shape of the phone.

But when I put it on, I realised how flash my phone actually looked. The case itself is silver/smoked so great for my silver HTC One. It “clips” into place around the phone, I did have a bit of trouble getting it on and I would image even more when I come to take it off. It offers two dark grey rubber borders around the top and bottom of the phone, meaning the screen is protected when face down. All the ports are free and easily accessible, I had no trouble with headphones or plugging in the USB cable.

Though this case offers less protection than the commuter series, you still feel like your phone is secure. It stops the phone from slipping out your hands, and protects the back from any scratches or bumps. I actually prefer this case, as it feels like I have the One back. The sleek, thin design and the way it bends into the palm of your hand. You can also see the back design of the phone and people forget that the look of the phone is normally the reason you would buy it. Because it looks cool, and if it looks cool don’t cover it in a case that hides its main features.

I have discovered when this case was first released it stopped the IR blaster from working, this was a manufacturer error and has since been resolved. I didn’t have any issues, so must of gotten the new version of the case. I highly recommend getting this case, its great protection and you don’t lose the look of the phone itself. If you’re going to put a case on it, make sure its the right case. You can find a link for the case below:
