CTA Digital PS Vita Travel EVA Protective Case

ok ive read reviews on this and every one was saying that it sucks but i like it. first: yes it does have a smell but its not as strong as everyone was saying. put some nugs in there and it will be good!!! second: everyone was complaining about the straps and how they mess with the sticks or cover the screen. they dont im not going to cut them off. they are a pain in the butt to get the vita out of the case but thats what their there for so and third: the game slots are for games not memory cards way to big for a memory card if your going to keep one put it under the ps vita. it holds my vita few games and my cord for my beats so i like it

I got this a while back when i got my ACR (white) ps vita i think. Either way its white and i got he case at the same time since i ordered both very close together. I can fit the ps vita in the half with the straps, but its sort of a hassel to have to lift up the straps, i think ill just stop using them since there is a zipper after all lol (not to mention joysticks are and have been known to be very sensitive) So those straps are a big no no. Now if we put all that aside, yes the ps vita site in nicely and yes you could fit your 4 game cards in the little built in sleeves, and then maybe just maybe if you fold the power supply just right you can get a very if not extremely tight fit. What i would rather do and what i am doing is leaving the charger in another case along with everything i dont need. Sometimes i have just the usb end in the case being sold/talked about here if im in a rush. Bottom line im unhappy with my purchase, but have found half a use for it... at least its smaller than most the other case pouches out there lol

Edit (6 July 2013): Im putting this from a 2 star rating to a 3 star rating. It really has held up well and has protected my Vita. Its quite impressive actually. But I cant stand how the upper flap is layered still; its still unusable. ---------- Original review: Generally, it does what it says. It carries the PSVita and protects it from harm. Ive dropped it once on concrete on accident and nothing was harmed. It gets the job done. However, Im not happy with [mostly] everything else. The carabiner that was suppose to come with it, didnt even fit in the small loop. Ive tried shoving it in, but nope. Doesnt fit at all (so I left it in the box). The top level where all the games and memory cards, etc go is tucked into the case in such a way that it always flaps into the top. Some pockets for the memory cards are sown into mesh. This makes no sense whatsoever. They could have put a zipper instead of open pockets so that the games,etc wont fall out. I also would NOT recommend putting earphones in it. There is just not enough space because of the flapping layer. When the Vita is in the case and strapped in, you cant push the L or R buttons. I really wish it did so I could at least play on it while its in the case. On the center that holds the top and bottom together, I can see some parts already being undone. Ive had it... almost 3 weeks now? For the price of it right now, ~$8-ish, its decent. It does its job. If you have a few extra dollars to spend, Id probably get a better one. The case I received didnt have that dreaded smell, so thats a good thing. Edit (5 Feb. 2013): Im lowering this to 2 stars because I suspect that its scratching my PSVitas screen. About a week into use, I noticed 3 0.5-1 inch long cuts on my screen (luckily I had a screen protector) and it had to have come from the case. If they got rid of that layer on top, I think it would have been fine. Edit (19 Mar. 2013): Im actually surprised that this case has held up for so long. There hasnt been any major rips or tears or anything like that. As for the case being too small to hold the Vita, I made a quick adjustment that seems to have done the trick. Instead of putting the Vita inside (the right way up), I put it in upside down so that it sits on the top flap. This method stops the two joysticks from being smashed since the system is being held up by the two cords when the case is closed.

Its a very good case. Will protect the vita. You have 4 card slots for the games and room for a LCD tag and head phones. comes with a little clip for the pocket or bag. Soft in the inside and hard in the out side. The only reason why I didnt give it a 5 star is because of the 2 straps inside. Just cut them off. Saves you the trouble. For the price its good and it comes in on time.

I bought this for my son as he likes to take his Vita everywhere. So far it is a very good protective case. He puts it in his backpack with various other items, books, t shirts etc.... He even knocked the case off of his nightstand with the Vita in it and nothing happened to the Vita turned right on, works perfectly. I would buy it again, if you are going to pay $200 for a device then you might as well spend a few extra dollars to protect it.

This is exactly what I needed. Its large enough to fit the Vita and a few games, but small enough that it doesnt take up much space in my backpack. The case is actually tougher than I expected - the outside is almost a hard shell. The inside is fully lined with a fairly soft fabric... you wont have to worry about your Vita getting scratched by the insides of the case. Theres a carabiner clip on the outside, as well as an attachment so you can thread a belt through it. I didnt want to buy the Sony carrying case, because its an open design and doesnt even protect the sides of the Vita. I didnt want to buy the Sony travel pouch because its way too big. Considering the cost, I think this is an excellent value for a no-nonsense, simple protective case.

No extras really this is a nice simple travel case for the Vita, Its a firm shell that will protect the Vita from getting smashed under normal conditions just fine. It has a few little places to put your game cards and enough room to even fit a small charger & cable. Its all I wanted in a storage case. A+ (Note) This is more of a Travel / Storage case, It is not a case you can play the Vita on while it is in the case...This is for when your done playing and dont want to just lay it on a table top.

While the straps are a bit of a bother, I just throw my Vita in on top of the straps and it closes just fine. Securing it would be good for traveling/camping/etc., but for just keeping it safe in the house, they really arent necessary. Very sturdy, I truly feel like my Vita is safe in this thing should anything ever happen. Seeing how well-made it is, I honestly cant believe how cheap it was. Definitely the best I could have bought. I wish the game pouches were see-through; when I get a larger collection of games, itll be a slight hassle to figure out which is which. But really not a problem, considering how perfect this case is in every other way. I own the newest Vita system, and it fits snuggly without being squeezed into place (I was worried it would be too tight and press on the power button, but it doesnt). I feel so much better about the safety of my Vita now that I own this case.

Pros: *Easy to use and get started *Runs relatively fast *You can download games when connected to the internet Cons: *The internet does not work at locations where you need to sign in or agree to user terms (hotels, starbucks, etc) *Holding the device is not comfortable after a few hours *The Playstation network and login is silly and overly complex

I LOVE THIS THING! It holds ten games, holds my Fire Emblem Fates 3DS XL, aaaannd my 20th anniversary Pokémon 3DS---- at the same time! With headphones. Man I love it. Its actually the best case Ive ever had. And Ive been through a lot of cases! I carry it over my neck to my side everywhere I go. The outside is hard, and it doesnt scuff or scratch any of your precious 3Ds XL/3DS little/DS/DSis it keeps them safe and secure within its sweet meshable embrace! My 3Dss mean a lot to me. I own several, but only have two in use at any one time. Im confident that it would hold two XLs if I wanted, but since they came out with the changeable faceplate ones in America I keep one of those and an XL on me at all times. Along with all my downloaded games. So Im pleased it securely holds the few hard copies I do have. I havent once had a problem when I opened it, of anything being out of place. I really have no cons about this product at all.
