The underside of the
Screen Armor is custom-fitted to the front of the PSP and is designed to protect the screen from scratches and bumps during transport and mildly rough handling. This side is coated with a neoprene inner lining that helps to protect your PSP?s screen from scratches, and serves as a protective layer between your delicate screen and the rigid aluminum plate of the unit itself. One added bonus is that this is not a carrying case. Carrying cases have pockets and pockets catch things such as dust, dirt and grit, and these things can find their way to your screen. With the
Screen Armor, you can easily inspect the surface that comes in contact with your screen and be sure that there is no grit before you place it on your PSP.
The exterior side of the Screen Armor is a beautiful brushed aluminum with ?Nyko? stamped smartly in the bottom left-hand corner. There is an inner rectangle that is punched upward, making the Screen Armor look nice, providing room for the unit to avoid contact with the main area of the screen being protected within and providing an increased structural strength. Remember the armor plating that Batman had on the Batmobile? This is much the same, except it doesn?t store inside of your PSP. However, when the Screen Armor is removed by lifting the tab on the underside of the PSP, the flaps can be folded inward, giving the unit a footprint not much larger than a credit card. This may not fit in your wallet, but it should easily fit in any utility belt.
All of this is not to suggest using the Screen Armor instead of a carrying case. In fact, the Screen Armor?s slimline, low-profile design was intended to fit most carrying cases. Now you can use that carrying case without worrying about what it might be doing to your screen.
PSP owners who use their PSP's for MP3 Playback are likely to really enjoy the Screen Armor as it allows you to use your PSP?s MP3 player capabilities while protecting your screen.
