Well I didn't realize there was no protective case included. It's just a slightly larger case to fit your Switch (with Mumba shell included). So if you are buying this make sure you already have the case or buy one along with it. As for the case itself, it's excellent. It is of great quality and appears to be quite durable. It has a pen (which is frankly useless) and holds up to 10 cards. It offers very good protection and gives me confidence that I can just throw it in my backpack or luggage and not worry about my Switch getting bumped. To be honest I have had other Tomtoc products and they have always been excellent in terms of quality and protection and I am happy to report that this case lives up to that precedent. All in all a great case. If you have a hard shell installed on your Switch (specifically Mumba, but I'm sure others will too), this is a great option to consider.
