The Active X - Perfect for Small Business Owners

The Sesame Seed purchased a smart phone to assist with the operations of our food truck business. We needed such a phone to process credit card payments, send tweets and make Facebook posts on the fly, and answer customer e-mails while working on the truck. No member of the Liu family has ever owned such an expensive phone, so we wanted to protect our investment. We opted for a premium case and selected the Seidio Active X. We found the case to be just what we needed. 


Pros:
-            The button cut outs on the Active X make pressing the on/off and volume control buttons an ease. The button design on the case as well as the port cut outs are precise, which demonstrates that significant time and accuracy has gone into the design process.

-            The case's rubber skin provides extra grip support and absorbs the shock from an inadvertent drop fairly well.
-            The plastic skeleton on the outside of the case provides a sleek look and allows the phone to slide easily in and out of jean pockets. Without the plastic, the rubber would grip onto the pocket and flip it inside out.
-            The case is thin for the amount of protection it provides. With the case on, the phone fits fairly comfortably into the back pocket of jeans.
-            The case provides just enough buffer so the phone no longer rests directly on the camera lens when it is set down.
-            The case is very easy to apply and remove.
-            Our credit card reader fits perfectly in the bottom audio port even with the case on the phone.

Cons:
-          Price: As previously mentioned, Seidio cases are premium cases. You can tell that a lot of time and effort are put into making these cases. The cost of this case can be up to 10 times higher than your standard case, but the Active X’s precision fitting and protection pay for themselves.

The Active X is the perfect case for our food truck business and has helped keep our smart phone safe from the hazards of our moving kitchen. We believe this is critical to the success of our small, mobile business. Keep up the good work, Seidio.
