I decided to purchase this case for a few reasons. One portability to easy fit in my pocket and two protection for that beautiful screen. So after digging for 8 days since I had first edition bundle from gamestop I knew that I would need a case for my PSVITA 3G+Wifi.
So far Hori seems to answer my calling. I had two choices the silicone case or this one. So far the Face cover looks nice with glossy plastic but feels a like cheap. If you were to compare the 3DS armor cases to this its something like that. The case does it job by protecting the top part if the system which as soft hard like material. It fits easily inside the case, but is hard to put it out. Back the of the housing you have access to the touch pad and camera. The power button, volume buttons, L/R, charge port, headphone jack, and memory card slot aren't blocked and easy to access. Also to note that the hinge on the top folds backward allowing access to gamecard and expandable slots.
Overall its a good case and worth it if you need that additional protect for the OLED screen.

Customer Review: A must have Add-on

Very good face cover.
Pro: The cover is well put together and the way the hinge is put together you can access the top of the vita to insert your games w/o having to completely remove the cover. To a certain degree, you can use the front cover to hold the vita upright to watch movies. Surface movement may make the cover flatten out though. It has a protective layer on the other side of the front cover to protect the Vita's screen from scratches when the cover is closed and is being transported.Con: The cover will make the vita a a bit bigger (no suprise)so if you bought an official cradle or have the first edition bundle's leather case, you will not be able to use these with the cover installed. The usb connectors on the cradle will not fully insert into the vita so you cannot charge it or use the headphone jack on the cradle so the cable that came with the system will be required to charge the system. The hinges on the on this cover will be in the way of the leather case that comes with the first edition bundle and may be in the way for the official case bought separately.Overall, I really do like the case but I was also hoping to at least be able to charge my Vita on the official cradle but it's not a complete loss. Also the inability to put the Vita into my leather case is a bit dissapointment but at the same time it didn't suprise me that it wouldn't fit.
