Galaxy Tab Case Review: Samsung Skin Case
When you have a 7-inch tablet, you’re likely not going to want a massive case. The Samsung Galaxy Tab Skin Case is a thin rubber option that will protect your tablet without making it feel like it’s clad in armor.
The skin case is made of a premium silicone. It’s smooth, but with grooves cut into it. Not so much for function, but for design.The rubber definitely helps you keep a better grip on the tab than if it’s naked.
The case comes as a single piece. It’s easiest to slip the Galaxy Tab into either the top or bottom, then stretch the opposite end around the front. And that’s where we had our one real complaint — it seemed a tad loose. Not so much that it’d slip off, but you’ll need to keep an eye out for dust and dirt getting between the skin and the rear of the Tab.
Speaking of the back end, there are cutouts for the Tab’s camera and flash — as well as the dock connector, speakers, and 3.5mm headphone jack. The volume and power buttons are covered by the case but are still fully usable. So you don’t lose that functionality when using this case (though some docks could possibly have issues). The skin case is thick enough to keep your Tab’s screen from touching the table when left face-down.
All in all, you get a simple rubber case that will protect the back and sides your Galaxy Tab, and keep the screen from getting scratched if it’s left face down. It’s easy to slip on and off, and has a cool design with the grooves on the back. The Samsung Skin Case for the Galaxy Tab is available for $19.95 in the Android Central Store.

Droid X case review: Smartphone Experts Skin Case
If you’re looking for a basic case for your Motorola Droid X, check out the Smartphone Experts Skin Case. It has a slim and sleek design that gives your Droid X a simple layer of protection without taking away from the design of the phone, or adding any bulk.
The case is made out of a durable and flexible rubber-like material with a special anti-dust coating. It provides a bit a grip, but not so much that it feels sticky. The phone slips inside, covering the entire rear, top, bottom and sides. Your Droid X’s screen is uncovered, but the slight extra thickness of the case helps keep free of scratches when placed face-down.
There are cutouts for all of the Droid X’s buttons and ports — including the all-important noise-canceling microphone on top of the phone. And it looks good, too, with a diamond-argyle pattern, which makes the case — and your phone — stand out from all the rest.
The Smartphone Experts Skin Case for the Motorola Droid X is available for $9.95 from the Android Central Store. More picture of it in action are after the break.

Review: HTC Skin Case for Evo 4G
The HTC Skin Case for the Sprint Evo 4G is one of the easiest ways to protect your phone. It’s a basic rubber skin that fits around the Evo with cutouts for the camera, speaker, flashes, kickstand and ports, and it leaves the phone’s massive 4.3-inch touchscreen completely uncovered, so you don’t lose any usability.
Marrying the Evo to the skin case is a simple matter of sticking the phone in it and making sure the rubber wraps all the way around the phone. The fit at the corners is snug, but not too snug. The case can be a little loose on the sides, but it’s only a minor annoyance. It’s not going to come off unless you want it to. The case wraps slightly around the front bezel of the phone, so it will keep the screen from hitting if it falls flat.
The biggest drawback to the skin case’s rubber texture is that it’s a little slick, and it’s a bit of a magnet for dust and lint. But the occasional bath in soap and water (be sure to remove your phone first) should take care of that.
The HTC Skin Case for the Sprint Evo 4G is available in several colors the Android Central Store for $9.95. More pictures and video of it in action are after the break.
