I got this case for my husband's psp. The psp fits great and the outer rubber shell of the case seems quite durable. However, if you look at the picture, you'll see a carabiner looped through a little strap on the case. That strap is held in place by a large rivet that's punched through the case and sits in the corner of the area the PSP should sit. This means that any time the PSP is in the case, that rivet is wearing on the PSP, potentially scratching, or otherwise ruining, the finish on the back of the system. If you buy this, be prepared to line the bottom with some heavy cloth or something to take the rivet out of the equation. That being said, this case is excellent for protecting and carrying a PSP. The designers just need to make an adjustment.

I bought two of these for my daughters because they carry their PSP's everywhere. It can carry games/movies and keeps the PSP protected. For the price and quality this item is ideal for any PSP owner.

I just got my psp and needed a case, so this one came in very handy. it fits the psp and up to four games. it keeps the screen protected. i like it a lot.

It can carry 2 UMD discs and the earphones with the remote wire including the PSP comfortably.
And the quality is excellent

I bought this item and the inside metal part of the case scratch the casing of my brand new PSP. Really frustrated with this cheap case.

Buy the official PSP case for 14.99 at target, looks nicer and not cheap.

Bought this case for my son's PSP 3000. It fits snug and is very durable; a little on the cheap side as quality goes, but I paid cheap. However, there is a metal clasp that is attached to the case, which is fine(although on the cheap side), but it is inexplicably attached directly to the case with a metal grommet that protrudes into the cradle that actually holds the PSP. This metal grommet makes contact witn the PSP every time it is in the case and has begun to leave scratches on the back of my sons PSP. They are small scratches and don't effect the way it operates, but my son was forced to move the PSP to the accessories cradle that is not quite as big and doesn't fit as nicely. Also, there was supposed to be a velcro strap that holds the the PSP in place when you open the case, but one of the straps was completely missing! So this too was useless. To sum up, I recently bought an officially licensed PSP Starter Kit with a (great!) case, car charger, cleaning cloth, USB cable, and extra UMD Cases, it even came with a bonus 'skin' for the PSP for only $15 at Sam's Club. My son loves it and uses the useless case to hold all his new accessories and attached it to the new case with the useless metal ring. I wouldn't recommend this product unless you intend to do the same. Although you could probably find a used or even new travel shaving or toiletry kit that would perform the same function . . . ?

Please note that I have added three images of this product to the gallery. Scroll back to the upper left corner of this product's web page to see them.

I'll address the issue of the metal rivet first. Yes, there is a metal rivet at the bottom of the PSP compartment. However, my case has a bit of material over it and the rivet does not come into contact with my PSP (see product image). I know that some reviewers have cases with bare metal rivets so I assume that this is a correction made by the company or there was a batch of cases where somebody forgot to put the covers in.

The other complaint is about fitting a PSP inside of the case. It fits and I invite you to check out my product image to see for yourself. However, it is very snug (see image). I have all linds of gizmos from pocket camcorders to cameras to multiple game consoles and I have never seen a case where the product fits so tightly. I was able to hold the case upside down and gently shook it and the console did not fall out. (Don't try this!) I had to wonder if this was intended for a PSP 3000.

While the console does fit, the shoulder buttons will be pushed into the console. I was able to squeeze a few UMDs into the other compartment and close it. This case can hold up to four UMDs along with the system.

The case is a hard rubber but you can still squeeze it. I'd compare it to somewhere between a travel case for your razors and toothbrushes and those generic rubber camera cases you can find at WalMart. If you put your PSP into this case and then put the case into a messenger bag then your system will be well protected.

I paid $6.29 for this case and I'd say that it does its job but I am not comfortable storing my PSP with the shoulder buttons squeezed in. I want to give this product four stars but I would advise my friends to get a case that is a little roomier. As it is, I'll give three stars. Get this if you're on a budget... it will work but it isn't my ideal choice.

The case is a bit too small for my PSP to fit in the holder section. It has to rest on top of it and while I can still close the case with the PSP inside but I don't have room for UMDs.

Material seems to be very solid so protective function might be well achieved.
There are two very annoying things:
1. In the PSP compartment there is a rivet's head that will surely scratch your psp if not in the protective cover - BEWARE.
2. There are small pouches to store memory or mini headsets. However they are so loose, that each time I open the case, I need to be very careful, not to drop my cards or so.

If these things could be improved I would give this product 5 stars...

This is a pretty nice case for the price.

Pros: No branding, well made, rubber coating on outside and 2 belt options.

Cons: Rivet makes contact with PSP and moves when clip does. Tight fit for a PSP 3000. Only 2 UMDs and PSP can fit in case.

Overall it's not bad. I would give it 3.5 stars. Just wish it was a tiny bit bigger and the rivet had some fabric over it.
