The Z's Ostatic Series Case: A Comprehensive Review
When it comes to protecting our devices from scratches and drops, we often find ourselves torn between form and function. The new Ostatic series case from Z is a testament to the company's commitment to balancing both aspects. With its unique design and vibrant color options, this case is sure to turn heads while providing ultimate drop protection in mind.
The first case on our list is the Ion Case, an ultra-protective option that aims to provide the highest level of protection in a relatively slim and lightweight form factor. Z's emphasis is on edge protection, with three fortifying layers making up the framework: two polycarbonate elements and a clear silicone shell that combine to reinforce one another and create a super strong and rigid bumper. The case does add some bulk to your device, but this extra thickness provides a substantial border around the entire display for maximum job protection.
The Ion Case fits comfortably in your hand due to its tapered sides, soft touch coating, and raised stiffled pattern present on the lower trim. This portion of the case actually rests in your palm, providing plenty of grip along with a pleasant feel. The molded silicone buttons offer a nice cushiony response, while protective flaps cover the charging port and headphone jack to keep dust and small particles from getting into these important areas.
However, one notable drawback is the soft and pliable nature of the material, which tends to dip slightly in areas and touch the back of the device, creating a bubbly appearance. But this has no effect on the case's performance; it remains largely well-designed and achieves its goal of extreme protection while doing so with a little style.
The last two cases on our list are both well-known for their intricate designs as well as excellent drop reduction. The first is the Ziza, which features an ultra-protective design that aims to provide the highest level of protection in a relatively slim and lightweight form factor. This case combines three fortifying layers: a polycarbonate shell with a clear silicone layer on top and below it. These layers reinforce one another to create a super strong and rigid bumper.
The Ziza puts a big emphasis on edge protection, which is achieved through the use of multiple layers. The case also features a tapered design that fits comfortably in your hand, thanks to its soft touch coating and raised stiffled pattern present on the lower trim. The molded silicone buttons offer a nice cushiony response, while protective flaps cover the charging port and headphone jack to keep dust and small particles from getting into these important areas.
Another notable feature of the Ziza is its 360-degree rotating belt clip holster, quick-release lanyard, and tempered glass screen protector. This package rounds out the protection that Diseases has got you covered here with a super rugged dual layer design that boasts a very solid reassuring feel – bolstered by its 12-foot maximum drop rating.
While we stuck to our various two- and four-foot tests, the Ziza easily managed to keep our device safe during testing. The case itself finished without a scratch on it overall, making it a great option for those who need heavy-duty protection. And with unique styling that remains one of its best features, the Ziza Bolt is sure to be a popular choice among Android enthusiasts.
The last but not least, we have the Zeizel Bolt, which combines a unique and protective design with vibrant color options. This case aims to balance form with function, making it a perfect fit in the hand while sacrificing a bit of bulk due to its heavy-duty nature. The Bolt is well-designed, with a great feel in hand and excellent grip.
The exterior shell of the Zeizel Ostatic series case comes in a variety of colors, including black, blue, red, silver, gold, rose gold, orange, and black – with the last being the only one to feature a colored TPU layer. When it comes to the Bolt specifically, its unique styling remains one of its best features. The case also boasts an excellent drop reduction system that provides 360-degree cushioning for your phone.
The Zeizel Bolt also features very responsive covered buttons and large shallow cutouts along the bottom, making it easier to access your headphone jack charging port speaker and S-Pen. The noted school camera module is nicely protected thanks to the raised polycarbonate rim surrounding it. This case comes equipped with a 360-degree rotating belt clip holster, quick-release lanyard, and tempered glass screen protector – rounding out the package that provides ultimate protection for your Android device.
Overall, these three cases showcase Z's commitment to providing high-quality protection solutions for Android devices. Whether you're looking for a slim and lightweight option or something more rugged and heavy-duty, there's a case on this list that's sure to meet your needs.
