Cosmos Black Aluminum Metallic Protection Hard Case Cover for Playstation PS VITA 1000 Series, Fits for Oval Start & Select Button Only (NOT for PSV 2000 Slim Version)

Very cheap plastic material that snaps together that Im expecting to break sooner or later.

Plastic not aluminum

First, I dont really consider this item aluminum. Ive purchased aluminum cases in the past for my Dsi XL and 3DS, both of which were similarly priced and you can clearly feel the cool aluminum and the sturdy nature. This item feels like plastic with maybe a paper thin aluminum covering over the front. The rear and sides are completely plastic. It does not entirely close properly on the top, there is a bit of an annoying bump on both sides of the top center where the front and back connect. It is also a bit difficult to hit the volume buttons. That aside, it does look and feel good once it is on the Vita, and does its job of at least cosmetically protecting the device. Im a little disappointed but overall I still feel like its a good purchase below $10 (I purchased it at $8).

i thought when buyer this case that it was true aluminum, but was mistaken still a nice fit no regrets.

I didnt want a bulky case but just enough protection on my Vita to where I wont ruin the glossy coat. This case does that and is very easy on the eyes.

Pretty good, small cosmetic blemish. It serves its intended purpose.

Easy to put on, nice feel to it

It fits snug and adds protection to the system. Power button and volume buttons are kind of hard to get to if you have big fingers. Other than that I like it

Its a plastic case, with a brushed metal cover. But it works as intended.

Terrible buy, Didnt even come close to fitting. Just like other buyers if anything it scratched up my vita trying to get it on, A complete waste of money. Do Not Buy!
