Hey guys, I am doing a review for the system skin case from joytron for the PSP slim. I know that you might have a new or already own a PSP slim but you are afraid it will get scratches or dirty right? Well with the Joytron system skin case you wont need to worry about your PSP getting those things. It is a crystal clear case that is almost unnoticeable and is very slim to go with the PSP. Its is a very strong case and is recommended to anyone who has a PSP. You will have access to all ports and buttons and will be able to open your umd door. The case comes in 4 pieces that are easy to install and hooks to the main front piece that goes on the front of the PSP. One piece actually holds on the umd door itself so you can open it. Its not expensive and can be bought from nuritech.us. I have bought one from them and I am very glad I did. I had dropped my God Of War PSP but luckily I had the case on and my PSP had no damage and no scratches. I really recommend it.

The joytron slim case or skin is a terrific case for the PSP. It lacks only a screen protector. It's a great fit and an exceelent investment. Any PSP owner can attest to hate seeing scratches on their PSP. The mahority of cases that rectify this issue are very bulky. They add unneeded weight to the PSP and make it feel like a phat. This case keeps the integrity of the size and that makes it even more "fitting."

I just purchased at PSP and was looking for a case that would protect my new toy from scratches. Looking around at the local game shops, all I can find were unattractive bulky cases. Online, I managed to find cases which you had to lift the top up to allow access to the buttons. After some looking, I found my answer, the Joytron Skin Case. It fits the PSP perfectly and does not add extra bulk of heft to it. The product allows for access to each and every button, which is excellent.
The case has 4 parts. The umd cover, 2 back pieces, and the front plate. The only thing I could not find in the box was a set of instructions, but assembly is pretty straight forward. If you own a PSP and want it to look slick, buy this product! you can't find it anywhere in stores so you will have to order it online.
Shipping is excellent. They processed my purchased and shipped the next day. I paid the extra 5 bucks or so to get priority mail and it came in 2 short days.
One last comment. Props to the people at Nuritech. This is the first time I received a piece of mail with a hand written thank you. It even had a smiley face. Not just a mass produced thank you, a hand written one.
Go get it!!!

I recently bought the Joytron case from ebay and was delighted with the product. Previously I was using a zip up case, which would only protect the PSP unit from impact if it was in the case. I needed a case that protected the unit from scratches, dust and fingerprints. I was sick of cleaning the PSP after every time I used it.
When I read the reviews about the Joytron case, I knew I had to try it. The installation was quite simple, but had to make sure everything clipped properly. The case isn’t bulky and does not add extra weight to the unit, and a major plus is that all the peripherals can be connected to the PSP without obstruction.
I was extremely delighted with the service and the delivery period having purchased it from Ebay and living in Australia. It only took 3 days which is first class service.
Simply an AMAZING all round case!

After hours of searching through the refuse that is the world of PSP-2000 protection I finally found a "system skin case" that suited my needs. There are a lot of storage/travel cases, one of which I will eventually purchase because the big, beautiful screen is not covered, but I was looking for protection while gaming. Most of those either weren't made for the slim PSP or had major flaws, like not being able to comfortably use the analog nub. It came down between a sure-grip silicone skin from eforcity and the PSP Slim & Lite from Nuri Tech.
I ultimately went with the Slim & Lite because it is completely clear, so I can actually see the Kratos glare I paid for. It is a very nice-looking little case that doesn't get in the way of a single button or port and protects your investment from everyday scratches. It's so thin that there is absolutely no button-pressing interference and everything just feels right. The Slim & Lite attaches easily, but be careful of the back cover, which has very tiny hooks. You will need a separate storage case
Check out the Nuri Tech Amazon storefront for more color choices: red (ooh) and silver chrome, and red and black leather. They also have some equally pretty PSP-1000 and DS cases. Don't forget to get a screen protector and maybe a micro fiber pouch, too. You can also order from NuriTech.us and there you'll find more pics and product descriptions.
Let's move on to the most important part of any buying decision, which you usually don't know the answer to until you've already entered into a relationship with the company: Customer Service. Sometimes you find a new company that's the only one that has what you want and, of course, you can't find enough reviews about the company itself. Well, you don't have to be wary about giving your money to Nuri Tech. I ordered my products on a Thursday morning, with free 5-7 day shipping. My order was packed and shipped that night and arrived on Saturday.
Now, that's not the part that impressed me. I found a problem when I put everything together: one of the hooks on the UMD cover was smaller than the others, so was loose, and the filter was inexplicably scratched near the middle of the screen. I emailed them about it that afternoon and they responded just over an hour later (on a Saturday!) that they were sorry to hear I got a defective/damaged product and sent out replacements, personally test fitting the UMD cover first. I have never experienced better service. It was, frankly, amazing.

Ever since I bought the PSP slim when it first came out, I had been waiting for a PSP protector that wouldn't interfere with the controls without having to take the protector off to play. I eventually came across a forum where there was much praise for the Joytron PSP Slim skin case, so I decided to order it and I am glad that I did.
The case comes in four parts. One part fits on the front while three parts fit on the back, allowing access to the UMD without removing the skin case. The skin case itself protects the PSP from being scratched pretty well, and is also nice because now I don't get fingerprints all over my PSP. There is just enough openings for every function so that you don't have to remove the case. An opening on the side allows the memory stick to be changed just like before the case was added, so the skin case does not interfere with the usability.
Since the skin case is not too bulky and the buttons are also given just enough room, playing the PSP feels almost just as natural as without a skin case but with the added feel that your PSP has protection.
The only thing that you can't do with the skin case on is that you can't change the battery without removing one of the back pieces of the case, but I never really remove the battery from my PSP anyways. If you were to want to take the skin case off, it may be a bit confusing at first but the case comes with both installation instructions and removal instructions. Also, when I recieved the skin case, it came with a hand written letter thanking me for my purchase which was pretty nice. Overall, the skin case is extremely good and does everything I'd want it to do. I can't think of any way that the skin case could be made better.
Also, it does not cover the screen, which means if you want to protect the screen you'll need to get a screen protector.

I just got the clear Joytron case for PSP slim from Nuritech and was immediately impressed with how easy it was to put on and how cool it looked on my red God of War PSP. The case comes in 4 pieces which snap together fairly intuitively. All ports are unobstructed and gameplay is totally unimpeded by the case. Even the UMD door can be opened and closed with no problems at all.
The case will protect from scratches nicks and dings, however the screen remains exposed. I just got a screen protector which can be replaced after it gets too worn. I put the PSP in an sunglasses pouch with a drawstring to close when commuting which keeps everything safe from scuff marks etc.
Overall the Joytron case is affordable, lightweight, looks very impressive and with a free small viewing stand from Nuritech to boot, this deal can't be beat!

What can I say about this case-this is by far the most innovative case for the Slim PSP yet! The Joytron Skin Case is comprised of 4 different pieces that all interlock together or firmly attach to the PSP itself via small hooks: face plate, battery cover, "memory side" rear cover, and the UMD cover. The faceplate is immaculate in design but does not cover the screen. So as a side note, I strongly advise purchasing a good screen protector in addition to this case. Personally, I was kind of glad that the Joytron Skin Case was designed this way. Some of those cases that shield the screen seem to attract scratches and dirt that inhibit the overall picture quality.
Nevertheless, it took me less than 2 minutes to attach the entire skin case to my brand new red PSP. I have yet to experience a piece falling off while vigorously gaming ("Me and My Katamari" ring a bell?) or carrying it in my pocket while listening to music.
As far as aesthetics go, this case makes my red PSP look so sleak! The case is not bulky or flimsy at all. You can barely tell there is a case on my PSP.
The navigation of the buttons and access to all ports has never been easier-Is there actually a case on my PSP? I remember using one of those name brand chunky cases for the "PSP Phat" and having to take it out to hook it up to a USB cable or interchange a UMD. Not with this case-Everything is easily accessible without removing a single part of the case. Also, the case allows the "Power" and "WLAN" switches to be slightly recessed. So no more accidentally shutting down your Slim PSP while playing which was a common problem for me before.
As mentioned by other reviewers, this case may not be the best protection from a hard impact. However, it certainly does its job well protecting it from scratches, fingerprints, dust, dirt, and possibly even a small impact such as dropping it on a table or hard floor while sitting. My red PSP was a fingerprint and scratch magnet before I got this and now it looks cleaner than ever.
In conclusion, I strongly advise any owners of the PSP Slim to get this case. This case should be a priority along with a screen protector on any PSP accessory list. I mean why resort to getting one of those ugly chunky cases that can barely fit in your pocket? This is by far the best medium for protection while still upholding the true form and function of the Slim PSP design.

I recieved my unit a day or two after placing the order. So I'm pleased with that part of ordering from a direct source. It arrived in stylish packaging and (this is rather unsual!) a hand written note! Consider me suprised, this part wasn't a joke.
On to the case:
Positives
-----------
The Joytron 'case' (or really, shell as I will refer to it from here on) is a breeze to install. Four pieces attach to the face, rear batter + rear memory stick doors and one final piece clips on to the UMD drive flap.
You really don't need the instructions because this part of the installation is intuitive.
Appearance wise it adds virtually no added bulk to the console. Were it not for the shiny plastic you'd be hard pressed to tell it was there.
Negatives
-----------
The plastic on the door seems to not fit quite as snugly as the rest of the case but that could be a function of improper installation. I might fiddle with it again. It doesn't look like it can withstand too sever an impact but it offers excellent, always on, protection. The screen IS NOT protected and warrants a screen protector.
Overall I'm pleased with the case, its price and the note pushes it towards a decent purchase.

I was in the market for a PSP case that would fit in my Sony PSP sleeve. After scouring the internet, I came across a blog mentioning the Joytron case. After checking around, and seeing it got good reviews, I decided to buy it.
I ordered straight from the manufacturer's website since they were offering a free PSP stand with purchase. It arrived in a box with Korean writing and not much English, but the packaging looked good anyway.
After cracking open the box, I initially was a little skeptical... It seemed a little flimsy. But once I put it on the PSP it felt great. There were instructions - which I read (they were in English) - but didn’t need. Four pieces in total, the back and front pieces were interlocking and the UMD cover portion was independent of the other pieces. Nice thing about the case is that all the ports, headphone, USB and memory slot are all still easily accessible.
Once it was on I was genuinely impressed, my main fear was that the case would not be snug and the PSP would move around a little causing surface scratching - but this does not happen - to the contrary the case fits snug and tight with no wiggle room.
Overall I like how it looks and it feels nice - my other concern was that it would make my "PSP Slim" into a "PSP Thick" - while it does add a marginal thickness ... It is very thin, and feels good. Another worry of mine was how the buttons would feel with the little case lip...but that also turned out to be a non-issue since the case is so thin.
I am very happy with the case, I don’t think it provides much shock absorption - but it will prevent my PSP from scratched or smudged - which is what I wanted.
