Sena Cases Magnet Flipper for Treo 680/750

Mon Feb 26, 2007 - 4:32 AM EST - By Douglas Morse

Conclusion

Did I mention that the IR port is also obscured by the case and it too would require removal of the Treo to beam? I had many of the same issues with the 650 version of the case and instead of addressing them, Sena cranked out the same case for the 680/750 without a thought to the change in design of the Treo itself. We lose more functionality (no access to the miniSD slot and IR) and none of the problems I had with the first case are addressed with this iteration. The magnet flipper itself is still not strong enough to stay securely closed and the credit card slot is too tight to be of use.

I’m surprised that people keep buying this case, when there are better ones out there for half the price. Perhaps Sena does a great marketing job convincing unsuspecting buyers that this case is worth a premium. Probably less people read my reviews than I would hope, and of course some buyers are looking for the exact combination of features this case has to offer. I just don’t know who they’d be.
