This review is from: COWON Carrying Case Black for J3 (Electronics) With such a superior product in the J3 by Cowon, I am very disappointed in this leather carrying case. It's only pluses are that it looks nice and allows access to the buttons on the sides. Its negatives are as follows:
1) The magnet size and strengthmakes opening the case not as easy as it should be. 2) The opening flap is not secure, even when closed, so dropping the player will still easily damage it. The flap will just move out of the way and allow the player to take the brunt of the fall. 3) The flap latch covers the ports on the bottom, making the USB and SD card access points unuseable unless the case is open, defeating the purpose of the case. In short, buy at your own risk. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: COWON Carrying Case Black for J3 (Electronics) So one of the reasons I like this case is it actually allows me to prop my player on my desk at an angle that is good for viewing videos because of the flap. Without a case this is impossible with the slick rounder corners of the player. I also like the extra strong magnet, you can actually use it to stick your player to a metal object like a desk or a fridge. I am actually thinking of making a kind of simple cheap docking station out of metal to stick it to on my desk. The case does make the player a lot bigger so it would no longer fit comfortably in my pants with my smartphone and wallet. But again the extra strong magnet comes to my rescue. Now I just stick it in my shirt pocket at work and place the fabric between the flap and the case. This makes it extremely hard for the player to fall out of my pocket. I think I actually like this setup better since it gets rid of a lot of tension on the headphone cord. The speaker is blocked by the case, but...Read more 6 of 7 people found the following review helpful: By thresholden (Virginia, USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: COWON Carrying Case Black for J3 (Electronics) the J3's external speakers and reset button are on the back of the player yet there is no holes made to accommodate this. The clasp gets in the way of the power charge flap. There is no clip to attach the case to anything. Really, the only purpose of the case is for carrying, not usage. Can't recommend. |
