Hey everyone and welcome to another HD, hopefully, video. This one is going to be a review and one of my first hardware review videos. This one is going to be a review of the case that I unboxed for the LG Voyager. So this is the hard rubberize case that I showed you guys and I'm just going to go over installation real quick and by the way, I will be using those installations for this video. And I'm using my new microphone here. So here we go.
This is the front of the phone itself and the front case again, this is made of, if I can show you, it’s a really soft kind of a rubber feel. But it’s also a hard rubber case. So it’s kind of interesting. To put it on, we just put it on the phone first down and wait 'til you hear a snap. I'm actually installing it during this video because uninstallation is a real pain. I have to show you guys more about that. But I put it on the back of the phone. This is the same thing. It kind of fits right over. There’s little hinges where you can put it on the phone and it hinges on to the outside parts of the phone. So when you hear the clicks, that is how you know that you are done with the installation.
So now that were done installing, I can go over the main feature of the case. I'm going to try to move the microphone and try, sorry about that. Try to move the microphone over here. What I want to show you is that, the front of the case is basically you get all this room for the buttons. You get all these open space so you can press, extend and clear keys. That’s pretty cool. You do get a little opening there for the speakers so when you're talking on the phone there's no obstruction there. The thing on this side is that you do have an open slot for the micro SD card that focuses. And the 2.5 millimeter headphone jack. So that’s very good. On the other side, it’s completely open. Okay, so there is no hinges coming down on this side. And also it’s left wide open on the front part. So you don’t have anything obstructing the hard keys on the top.
A few things I noticed about this case. On this side, there are four, you can see those four holes? I actually went on their website and I was just surfing it today and I never found out what those four holes are for. It could be for ventilation. It could be for a belt holster. But I never found out. There is no belt holster in the box. So that’s just something to consider. And you kind of feel it when you're texting on the back, because I hold my phone in a certain way that I do have my thumbs or my fingers there so that’s interesting feature.
This case doesn’t take up that much room. If you are looking for a case that doesn’t add that much bulk to the phone. This is not a very thick phone as you can see. It does have a flip open, but it’s not a very thick phone. And this case does not add that much bulk to the phone.
What else can I tell you, there's not really that many features about it because it's not a belt holster. It does cover the Verizon Wireless and the LG branding that you will normally see. So when you were surfing the web, you wouldn’t have. There wouldn’t be anything in the way. If you're trying to touch something on the outside edge of the screen that might be obstructed a little bit, but otherwise, it’s pretty good that you don’t have anything kind of distracting. So if you're browsing the web in the dark, there’s nothing reflective or anything. So that’s pretty cool.
What else can I tell you? This is really a well designed case. You can get one at the link in the description. It’s a very, very good price. So if you do visit that link, you can get this for I think $10.00 it is.
So I want to thank Extreme PDA for sending this out to me. It’s a really, really nice case. And I think this is now going to be my default case. Because before I was using a soft one, this is actually a better case and it does work with my headphone. So if I do plug in the headphones there, they don’t fall out. One last thing is that in the other case that I was using, when I wanted to charge the phone, you kind of have to bring back that charging flap there. If I take it back, but I can't really do it at the moment because this little thing right here that latches on to the edge of the phone is in the way. So if you do want to charge it, you're going to have to take off the back part of the case and that is kind of difficult to take off. So that is the only con. It’s not a lint grabber or anything; it’s just an all around good case.
So this has been another HD video from MKBHD. If you like to follow me on Twitter. That link is on my channel and you’ll get all the updates. I try to update it a couple of times a day. And that’s basically it. So thanks for watching this video. And make sure you subscribe. Peace.
