Anniversary gift from my other half, the Spigen SGP Saturn. :D

Wanted an 'open concept' case as I use my amp and existing Apple's 30-pin to lightning adapter for music as those 'close concept' types do not allow the adapter to be plugged in, and my previous cheapo $2 case always have to be pulled down at the bottom in order to use.

So after many types of case considerations, finally chose this.





Note: the dust plug at the 3.5mm port does not come included, it's from my SwitchEasy Nude case 3 years back.

You can buy it here :)




Hi, what would you like to know about the sword red alert? The phone is actually a little bit recessed into the case, so the front screen will not touch the surface if placed face down.

How do you order it? Cause it rejected my order saying they don't accept oversea credit card.

question about PSAJ: is it a hard case? I always got the impression that, a hard case, if not handled properly, will scratch the phone itself. Am I over-worried?

It's a hard acrylic case and very thin till it looks pretty fragile. No worries, it won't scratch the phone.

I dropped my iphone 5 with AJ before from waist height on to tar road before. Phone 100% no damage, no even a single scratch... AJ surprising no cracks but some tiny dent and scratches.

I just want to say, I swear by Powersupport Air Jacket! :D

I used my UOB ONE Visa and the order went through.

Did you order it through global.rakuten.com instead of rakuten.co.jp?

You may want to try Tenso's buy for me service instead.

I handled it yesterday before deciding on the Spigen Saturn instead. The PSAJ does not have a fully-open bottom part, so it's a no-go for me.

Same for me, I was asking XcoldstarX bro for instructions and my order was rejected for the same reason as well. I was using the global site also, but it said this seller does not ship internationally.

I ended up using Tenso's buy for me service which costs quite a bit. Hopefully my order will go through as I'm still waiting for updates.

Yes. Cause it is all round protected. That is why people love them.
