Review on Poetic TurtleSkin Protection Protective Silicone by David Bartan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good for protection, but heavy duty means heavy

This is a pretty good tablet case, but it doesn't meet my needs. The problem was most likely related to my own expectations. If you're looking for a rubber silicone case that protects your edges from bumps and brief drops and allows you to place your tablet face down without scratching the touchscreen, this is a great case. But I didn't want that. I was looking for something that would make it easier for me to hold the tablet with one hand. 10-inch tablets are difficult to hold because of their size, weight, and the texture of the frame you're holding them in. The back of this tablet is made from a mix of silicone and rubber, which feels nice but is a bit slippery. And the front glass is very slippery. Because of this, it's really difficult to hold it with one hand. I thought this case might help in that regard, but its silicone has a slippery texture. More importantly, the weight of the case is about 250g, which is half the weight of the tablet, making the tablet 50% heavier and more difficult to hold.
