Thumbs Down

nothing rhino about it, the materials are cheap and flimsy, they should be ashamed to put out such a piece of junk and you should stop carrying it.

Jon EmmetPiece of garbage

Thumbs Down

I had it for 3 weeks and the thing started to come apart from the plastic. Since I just stopped using it and didn't contact Rhinoskin in time, I'm stuck with it. Looks like Crazy Glue get's my $$ instead of Rhinoskin

Thumbs Down

This thing really stinks. The review looked good, the picture looked great. And my recommendation would be to buy the picture, because that is closest you'll get to a good looking case. It is too big, too bulky, and it is "imaginary" protection (it is framed in frail brittle plastic despite being housed in a decent neoprene sleeve). Also, the design is lousy b/c you can't sync in the case.

Initially unimpressed,7 months of bumping/dropping(6-8 times a week)/mashing by a contractor has not phased it! I have to wash it about every two weeks as it gets filthy-no problems with velcro/glue. No cold chill when it hits the ground, Visor always fires right up. Not Aesthetic, but very durable.

Too bulky. Mine has a big "Rhinoskin " logo on the front of the case that loks unprofessional--maybe they've changed it since I got mine. Also, when the case is open it is a magnet for cat hair.

Bob RoginskiPoorly built!

Thumbs Down

While I've successfully used RhinoSkin products in the past, I'm quite disappointed in the quality of this product. The product was initially out of stock for approximately 3-4 weeks, and shortly after receipt the Velcro strip for fastening the cover has come off, and the foam body has started to separate from the hard plastic frame. The Rhodiana product, while a bit quirky (more difficult to remove the Visor and not able to sync in the case), is of a much higher quality.

VisoraddictGood protection for the money.

I am an Engineer in an Industrial plant and use my Visor all the time, both on the floor and in the office. It does what I need it to, offer some extra protection and allows me to carry it around without fear of misplacing it. No problems encountered thus far and I have had it about 4-5 months.

crighterNot for power users

Thumbs Down

The case is not durable enough to stand up to heavy duty use. After 3 months the clip attachment on the back disintegrated and the case itself began to seperate from the plastic frame. Good idea, poor implementation.

jcmorrisGood case but did not last long

Thumbs Up

I do not use my Visor enough if it is not attached to me. I am also rough on pilots - I have cracked 2 Palm screens already. So, I needed something with protection. The Rhinoskin is a great product for the price. I dropped it over and over and nothing happened. It also protects the screen from scratches. The holes are cut nicely, and the logo is straight. The velcro never came off. However, I had one problem with the case. With a little stress, the button on the back of the case that fits into the belt clip snapped off. I had the case for only 3 months. Rhinoskin would not fix it, or give me a discount on a new one. I wanted to get the Rhodiana this time, but I am just not sure that it could handle a 3 foot drop to the driveway. So I am getting another. Rhinoskin's relpacement policy is only 30 days, hopefully I won't have to shell out another $35 three months from now.

AnonymousFix the clip and I would recommend it.

Thumbs Down

It needs a durable belt loop. With the quick release there is no need for a fragile clip.
