Review on 🎧 Astell&Kern A&Futura SE100 Ebony Black Leather Case by Shawn Quick

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Just too expensive! What's going on here guys? They're just seriously attacking our wallets!

The fit is good, the skin feels comfortable, but the bad thing is that the top right side of the device is very exposed. Not good, but I think they did it for some reason, but look. They are MADE in South Korea (or maybe even China, I don't know) and none of them share our high manufacturing costs, so I'm pretty sure you'll get an extremely high return either way. At a manufacturing cost of maybe $2 (and probably less) I would prefer to protect the corner at all costs (no more than $$) as it would be more difficult to control the volume or turn the case on and off or whatever the reason they decided to leave the whole corner so vulnerable. Second.prize! Damn! 150 dollars? I didn't pay for it. I bought my SE100 during a promotion when it was included in the player. But. Think about it (and I realize they don't sell in bulk like Apple does, for example) but I just thought I could literally get 5 pairs of decent leather sneakers, loafers, dress shoes, or any combination of these for the same $150 to buy. That makes you think, doesn't it? Too much money for that. Not a good value at all.
