New Phone Case

I got a new case by Mercury for my Galaxy S3 the other day; it reminds me of the old PDA days! It has a magnetic latch to keep the case closed and has some slots in the inside cover for credit cards. I don’t think I will keep credit cards in it, but I did put a Miu Suto Engine Sentai Go-onger trading card in there just for some eye-candy. I opted for the navy blue/lime green color scheme which is fun and will hopefully make it harder to misplace. I do wish the inside was a little less lime, but it’s still good.

Of course the case adds some bulk to the phone but it has a good feel to it and seems pretty sturdy. The phone itself is securely attached in a soft plastic holder, and that is attached to the faux leather case. It has cut-outs for camera, flash, speaker, mic, and buttons, but one of the really cool things is that it also has a small hole for a keitai (cellphone) strap. I put on an Animal Crossing character, and it is perfect for putting under the case so that the speaker won’t be covered if you rest the phone on the table. No more muffled podcasts while I get ready in the morning!

All-in-all, I think this case is going to work out nicely!
