Smartphone Experts MC6 Magnesium Case
by Smartphone Experts
>>
Read Review (Rating 5/5) <<
The MC650 case is made out of magnesium, which is both stronger and lighter then aluminum. The case has been precisely molded after the Treo 650/600 to perfectly protect the device. The case features black magnesium on the outside, and a soft neoprene lining on the inside to cushion your Treo from impact shocks. With this case you can be confident that your Treo will be protected in even the harshest conditions.
On the back of the case you will find a removable belt clip and two easily accessible yet secure SD Card holders. Simply insert the cards face up, and they will look into place until you remove them.
The MC650 Case also features a new double-hinge, so the cover can completely fold out of the way. Flipping open the cover panel gives you full access to your Treo, but you can manage calls and carry on a conversation with the case closed, thanks to the large plastic window and the navigation keys cut-out.

Belt Clip Problems |
I loved this case at first. It is sturdy and I like the way it opens. You can see the screen and operate basic functions with it closed. However, the metal post on the case wears out the belt clip. After a time the clip holder is widened enough that the case's metal post slips out and CRASH everything hits the ground. I've gone through two belt clips and the last time the case finally cracked from bouncing off the concrete. Great concept, poor execution.

Hinge on this unit is junk |
I bought two of these. The first one broke on the side of the case. So I bought the new one and the hinge broke withing one month. I have emailed the company with my request for repair, they ignored me. Do not buy this unit. The door will come off in your hand....

Hinge broke |
The metal hinges are not well connected to to front and back. Mine broke after 2 1/2 months. Unfortunately, I did not use the case immediately after purchasing it, so it was just past the lousy 6-month warranty period. Customer support sucks big time.

Nice Case but cover needs better locking device |
I bought this case and really liked it. It was well made, nice looking and very sturdy. At first I was doubtful if the pin that screws in would be good enough but it was very easy to install and very sturdy. AFter installing the pin I tryed out the case. It locked in good, swiveled well and felt comfortable to wear. The hinged cover opens easily, swings out of the way and covers well. As I read in other reviews the pin will scratch the cover when its turned all the way to the back but with a little effort that can be avoided. My first day wearing the case I noticed it was open on my side so I closed it thinking I forgot to close it. The phone can't come out unless it slides out the top of the case. About an hour later I was walking in a parking lot my case popped open and my phone slid out and fell to the parking lot. Well, the phone survived but is now scratched up and not returnable to Cingular if I had a problem with it they would know its been dropped. I could wear a rubber band around the case keeping it from maybe popping open but after spending a good bit for a nice case I think I should at least get a case that I don't have to worry about my phone falling out. I returned to my old case and returned my case for a refund. Hopefully the company will change the locking device on this otherwise perfect case. If they do I would buy one again, but not untill I'm convinced they've improved the lock on the cover.

Great Protection |
The case has been very good, though it did crack when it fell from my pocket. It was better than the Treo cracking, so I think it did its job and is still very usable. The Black paint finish has worn off on the corners, and i wish there was a way of tightening the fit, as mine is now a bit loose. Overall, my Treo has a pretty hard work environment, and this case has offered great protection.

Hinge falls apart |
One of the two hinges just fell apart after only four months of use. The case has never even suffered any major drops or falls

too many problems with this case and Innopocket |
Best part of the case is that the opening on the front (exposing the five-way navigator and associated buttons) is usable, unlike in previous incantations by Innopocket. The bad: as one previous user said, the screw is way too low on the back of the case, so you may find your Treo upside down on your belt often. If the not-so-secure door on the front opens up, your prized possession will fall right to the floor (has happened to me twice). Also, the earhole opening is not even close to the earpiece of the Treo, maybe a full 1/2" off. Forget about using the phone in the case anywhere except the library, you can barely hear anyone speaking to you. Also there is too much room for the Treo to move inside this case. With the case closed I can move the Treo over an inch up and down. Unacceptable, avoid this case. BTW, try calling Innopocket directly with questions, if you enjoy not being responded to.

No SD option case hangs upside down |
The model without the SD storage has the belt clip screw hole too low on the case causing the phone to balance upside down as it swings on the belt clip.

a little too large for the 650 |
this will fit like a glove on the 600 but a little too much wiggle room on the 650. being magnesium it is too brittle to shape and mold like the aluminium.
